Chapter 223: Such Talent Must Not Be Wasted!
The system notification as Qin Feng entered the tomb caused all the Sakura Country players to panic.
Talking about it was one thing.
But when faced with the world’s number one ‘Shadow,’ even Ichiro Shodou felt his whole body shiver!
The most critical thing was…
Ichiro Shodou gripped the hilt of his sword, his eagle-like eyes fixed on the empty white-bone platform: “This Shadow is too strange. I’ve heard that some people he’s killed mysteriously disappeared. They weren’t dead, but they never showed up again.”
His subordinates exchanged glances nervously.
“Shodou-sama, how about we retreat? Let’s not waste time with him!”
“That’s right, just a cowardly invisible rat, not even worth our attention.”
“That sneaky Da Xia person is disgusting! Let him have the tomb!”
They planned to back off.
But soon, after searching for a while, they realized…
There was no option to leave this place!
In other words, they had two choices: either die trying to escape, or survive and continue exploring the entire tomb.
“Baka yatsu!”
Ichiro Shodou clenched his fists, drenched in sweat, even though he hadn’t yet seen the ‘Shadow’s’ figure.
—-
[Both sides have gathered, the portal is closing.]
[The rules are: Unlimited round-robin, until one side is completely wiped out.]
[The winning side can continue exploring the tomb!]
[If no winner is decided within five hours, the match will end in a draw, and everyone will be teleported out of the tomb. The tomb will be closed…]
[Now, both team leaders, please confirm the first round fighters!]

When Qin Feng entered, the system immediately announced the start of the battle.
Of course, Qin Feng was the one to fight first; it was just him on this side.
“In my last life, I was the first to fight.”
“After taking out two weaklings, I faced Ichiro Shodou…”
“Though this guy isn’t weak, he’s just unfortunate—I’m very strong too.”
In his previous life, Qin Feng’s emerald-level talent was called ‘Perfect Block’!
As long as he performed a block within 0.1 seconds before taking damage, he could perfectly negate the damage and recover 20% of his maximum health. The effect had no cooldown!
Of course, executing the block took time, and during the action, Qin Feng would still take damage.
So, it wasn’t an infinite block.
It had to be a precise block.
When he first started playing the game, Qin Feng found perfect blocking extremely difficult.
Because it required perfect timing.
Not only did he need to understand his opponent’s movements, but he also had to increase his own blocking speed.
Even the slightest change in agility would mess up Qin Feng’s blocking rhythm.
But after two and a half weeks of practice, Qin Feng had mastered the blocking technique!
So when facing Ichiro Shodou, no matter what attack he threw, Qin Feng blocked it flawlessly.
At the same time, Qin Feng’s attacks were ineffective against Ichiro Shodou; this guy was too fast, and his damage reduction shield was always active.
This led to…
A deadlock where neither side could break through!
After five hours of intense stalemate, both sides were teleported out of the tomb.
“In my last life, this guy never won against me.”
“This time, he won’t be able to defeat me either.”
“However… this guy is a key figure in the Eastern Capital massacre. Keeping him around might be more interesting than sending him to the Judgment Land.”
Qin Feng squinted.
It was the day after the battle in the tomb when Ichiro Shodou’s team encountered a Diamond-level boss near the ruins of Eastern Capital.
The boss was surrounded by whispers from ancient gods and had maxed-out control abilities, causing Ichiro Shodou’s entire team of sixty players to lose their sanity!
These were the top players in the Eastern Capital ruins.
Once they lost their sanity…
They began doing things that ordinary people could hardly imagine or understand.
The team’s chief male priest started kidnapping children who couldn’t enter the game, claiming to “treat” them…
The team’s chief assassin set invisible traps around the bodies of thousands of players, cutting them into pieces once they logged out…
As for Ichiro Shodou, he defied all logic, killing many, pulling out their spines, and turning them into swords…
In just one day,
Eastern Capital descended into chaos! Thousands dead or wounded!
Eventually, the Sakura Country officials, using immense force, managed to subdue them.
Two days later, when Ichiro Shodou and the others regained their sanity,
They pushed all the blame onto an old member of the team, claiming that it was the elder’s fault they had fallen into the ‘whispers.’
So, the elder committed seppuku.
That’s right.
Despite committing such a heinous act, Ichiro Shodou wasn’t executed—his strength was too significant, and the Sakura Country officials paid too much attention to him! This, in turn, led to more disasters in Sakura Country…
“This Ichiro Shodou is undoubtedly talented.”
“Such talent should not be wasted.”
“Rather than judgment, it would be better to leave him for Sakura Country.”
“However…”
“To ensure that this life follows the same path as the previous one, I must pay extra attention.”
Qin Feng thought.
First, after killing him, I won’t absorb his lifespan to avoid altering his behavior too much.
Second, at the final hour of the five-hour mark, I’ll kill his team members, just like in my previous life, to try to ensure the timeline stays consistent.
Though I can’t guarantee that everything will play out the same way, I’ll do my best.
Anyway, Sakura Country’s life was already difficult in the last cycle, and Ichiro Shodou was directly related to that. As long as I don’t kill him, it should be fine…
“Though it’s a bit of a waste of development time… these major events must be kept as close to the original trajectory as possible, to avoid any changes that could allow Sakura Country to live better lives in the future.”
So…
Qin Feng stepped onto the white-bone platform, preparing for battle!
—-
At the same time, Ichiro Shodou and his team received the system notification.
They couldn’t log out or delay.
The fighter selection must be made within 15 seconds.
Otherwise, everyone would be trapped here forever.
So, even though they feared being killed by the ‘Shadow’ and mysteriously disappearing, they had no choice but to fight!
“Yoshida-kun, you should go first.”
Ichiro Shodou turned to a bald priest in his team, his expression serious: “To defeat the Shadow, we must work together to test its abilities! This important task is entrusted to you, Yoshida-kun!”
The bald priest’s eyes widened in shock: “What?! Why me? I’m just a priest!”
A young girl beside him bowed: “Yoshida-kun, you have a three-second invincibility skill that can help you fight the Shadow!”
“No, I’m not going.”
Bald priest Yoshida shook his head vigorously.
“Eh?”
Ichiro Shodou’s eagle-like eyes fixed on him.
“…”
The bald priest was intimidated by Ichiro Shodou’s gaze, and, after gritting his teeth, he turned toward the empty white-bone platform: “Makase, if I don’t make it, please take care of my wife!”
He turned and bowed to the others.
But before he could finish his bow, he was teleported onto the white-bone platform.
Before the bald priest could react or use his skill, Qin Feng’s Shadow Blade struck in an instant.
Pshh!
-149.5K (Critical Hit)!
“……”
Looking at the horror damage numbers above the bald priest’s head, Ichiro Shodou and the others were stunned!
What kind of damage was that?!
