Fu Yang’s gaming account had now reached Peak War God, a rank only accessible to the top 0.1% of players in the game.
Initially, Shu Wan intended to compete today and help Fu Yang with the remaining qualification matches, but then she learned that today’s match was just a friendly and wouldn’t affect rankings, so she went ahead and ranked up the game after her shower last night.
As soon as she entered, a black dragon covered in golden radiance swooped down, emitting a deafening roar.
Everyone was stunned, not because they hadn’t seen such effects before—after all, when the professional players entered earlier, they had similar effects.
What surprised everyone was that Shu Wan’s account was Peak War God???
Surprised as they were, naturally, no one thought the account belonged to Shu Wan.
"Shu Wan, whose account did you borrow?"
"Oh," Xu Ming gave a knowing look, "Your stepson is pretty incredible then. Where does he find all that time to play games? Did someone else help him level up?"
Shu Wan nodded, most of the ranks on Fu Yang’s account were achieved with her help.
Because the rank on this account was so implausible, no one would think Shu Wan achieved it herself.
In everyone’s eyes, women couldn’t play games well, so when the match was about to start, both the professional players and Xu Ming told Shu Wan, "Just stay behind us, pick up some med kits, we’ll protect you."
Having lived in modern times for so long, Shu Wan had come to understand that although this era had advanced much more than before, many invisible biases still existed, just more covertly.
She didn’t argue with everyone, merely clicked her mouse and maneuvered her character into the battlefield.
The whole battlefield, aside from the two teams participating in the friendly match, also had other randomly matched teammates.
However, with professional players present, it was clear that the showdown between TY and CN would dominate this arena that housed 100 gaming personnel.
The game started, and everyone began rushing to different zones to pick up gear.
In friendlies like these, with professional players involved, the focus was typically on their maneuvers while celebrities like Shu Wan and Chen Jiao only had their faces shown.
Especially for Shu Wan and Chen Jiao, whenever the camera panned to them, it aimed at their faces, completely ignoring Shu Wan’s play.
It wasn’t until everyone had picked up their gear and were ready to regroup that they realized Shu Wan was decked out in full max-level gear.
Though gear spawned randomly around the game and picking them up didn’t require effort, gathering a full set of max-level gear in a short amount of time still demanded high dexterity.
But even then, everyone just assumed Shu Wan was lucky, "Shu Wan, you’re so lucky! Should’ve picked gear with you. Let’s head across the bridge; there were gunshots from there just now."
By this point, the original 100 participants in the battlefield had dwindled to 52 and were still reducing.
CN’s team took Shu Wan and Xu Ming across the bridge in a vehicle when suddenly, shots rang out from the town towards them.
In such a situation, where the enemy is hidden and they are exposed, the best course of action is to not engage, to drive away quickly, find cover, then deal with the adversaries.
The seasoned professional players immediately floored the accelerator and navigated an S-shaped route into the town, while their hidden enemies kept firing at them.
At this moment, Shu Wan suddenly leaned out of the window.
The vehicle was moving fast, and their adversaries were well concealed, making the likelihood of hitting them almost zero. Her teammates thought she was unstable and about to fall out.
"Shu Wan, come back, it’s dangerous outsi—"
Before they could finish, two gunshots rang out, and a message displayed above on the battlefield, "Kirby has eliminated 2 players."
The teammates were stunned, sitting next to Shu Wan, another professional player saw her moves and could confidently say that Shu Wan’s decisiveness and precision in shooting were at least on par with his.
"I didn’t see it coming, Shu Wan, you’re this incredible? So accurate?"
"Yes." Shu Wan nodded briskly, "Be careful."
In the midst of speaking, Shu Wan steadied her rifle and struck an enemy to the right front.
Three consecutive shots eliminated three players, and if anyone still didn’t recognize Shu Wan as a gaming master at this point, they must indeed be foolish.
"Shu Wan, you’re too amazing!"
"Wow, I didn’t expect a girl to shoot so accurately; it’s truly incredible."
As Shu Wan eliminated the first two players, the camera only focused on her face, so no one saw her maneuvers.
But with the third elimination, the audience saw it all.
From a moving vehicle, Shu Wan leaned out, switched to a four times scope, aimed, and made a clean hit.
[???Shu Wan is so skilled at games?? This technique, even as a veteran player of 6 years, I can’t compare.]
[So accurate! If this weren’t an official match, I’d suspect Shu Wan of using an aimbot.]
[So cool!!! Shu Wan is my hubby! Nobody else claim her!]
Upon realizing Shu Wan was a gaming pro, CN’s team, previously without much hope for victory, suddenly felt a spark of confidence, thinking maybe they could defeat TY??
In the time that followed, CN team focused on gradually building their strength without engaging in frequent conflicts.
Meanwhile, TY team, like a juggernaut, nearly swept through the entire battlefield.
Soon, only 12 participants remained.
This meant there were only three teams left in the field: CN, TY, and another group of random players.
As the final zone kept shrinking, the remaining teams were forced into a face-off.
TY team, being experienced and skillful, quickly disposed of the random player team.
What remained was the showdown between TY and CN.
Perhaps because of their previous dominating performance and the fact that their skills surpassed CN’s significantly,
Shu Wan was also too pretty, pretty to the point where people subconsciously thought she must be terribly weak, so TY team thought this match was already in the bag.
They decided to take out the weakest link, Shu Wan and Xu Ming first, then deal with the remaining CN professional players.
But because they underestimated Shu Wan, when they confronted her, TY’s professional players didn’t take it too seriously and exposed themselves.
As professional players, even if they revealed weaknesses, these were usually so subtle that others couldn’t notice them, and they would quickly adjust.
But it was precisely these subtle weaknesses that Shu Wan immediately captured.
