Aside from the person who had begun the pursuit, there was Chi Jiuyu, plus four more who had noticed the movement nearby and joined in.
A total of six contestants had taken part in the chase.
And every one of them was extraordinarily fast, closing a great stretch of distance in mere seconds.
At this stage, every single point was hard-earned.
It was rare to come across someone being besieged like this, so naturally they had to seize the opportunity. Who knew—perhaps the points would end up in their hands amid the melee?
Gradually, contestants even farther away noticed something was off, and one after another began converging...
But right then!
They discovered through the real-time map that the contestant being pursued had suddenly accelerated!
His escape speed instantly rose several levels. The distance that had already been greatly closed was widened again in an instant.
His speed even surpassed that of every person chasing him.
At once, the six contestants who saw this stopped dead and did not continue the pursuit.
They all understood what had happened.
Especially the contestant who had been the first to give chase—when he saw that absurdly fast escape speed, he was secretly terrified.
Fuck!
He was actually pulling this fishing-enforcement stunt. What a fucking snake!
High above a stretch of clouds, a streak of sword light appeared without warning, blazing brilliantly.
Boom!
The currents of air in the sky exploded. Fine strands of invisible Sword Qi, as thin as hairs yet incomparably sharp, descended in every direction, tearing through the cloud haze.
As the radiance dimmed, a figure was revealed within it, a blue-gold longsword in her hand.
It was Chi Jiuyu.
That person's sudden burst of terrifying speed had also made her abandon the idea of rushing over to get involved.
