The arena tournament was about to begin, and Nick provoked everyone's wrath by blocking the way!
Game Announcement: The player arena tournament will officially begin in ten minutes. All participating players will receive generous rewards. Please go to Earthen City (726, 926) and click on the event NPC to participate!

Game Announcement:...
The announcement was broadcast every minute, which caused almost all the players who were farming monsters outside to return to Earthen City.
They all rushed towards the event NPC.
However, there were simply too many people, and since the game world was made realistic, people couldn't walk through each other, which directly led to a stampede.
"Hey, hurry up, everyone up ahead! Once you're done, just go random, don't hogging space!" a player shouted from behind.
Although these players are basically familiar with the game's Leveling Up by Killing Monsters process, they are still not used to chatting in the Chat Channel and basically still shout to speak.
The realism in games often makes players overlook these things.
"Brother Xiao, are you participating?" Ye Fan asked Xiao Huohuo from outside the crowd.
"What do you think is the purpose of this game world?" Xiao Huohuo didn't answer directly, but asked in return.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Fan said, " Plunder!"
Xiao Huohuo exclaimed, "You hit the nail on the head! A game world can't appear out of nowhere; there must be traces of human intervention behind it. This person is either a Big Shot or someone like these people."
Xiao Huohuo pointed to the crowd around him.
"They are all the best in their respective worlds, the so-called Protagonist, with Heaven-Overflowing Karmic Luck and each possessing their own cheat-like abilities."
Ye Fan nodded. Not Protagonist Protagonist are the same; some Protagonist are only Karmic Luck, while Protagonist are only determined by talent.
Some Protagonist, however, are only successful because of their special abilities.
"According to the PK rules, killing a player gives you the chance to obtain everything from them, including attributes, techniques, experience points, and even talents and cheat codes."
Ye Fan's gaze was intense. "Over the past two days, we've experienced quite a few Combat, but we've only managed to obtain a portion of the target's experience points and equipment."
"Other things like talent, cultivation techniques, or cheat codes have never been seen before."
Xiao Huohuo nodded. "The drop rate is very low!"
Ye Fan shook his head and said, "The drop rate is very low for us, but there is one person whose drop rate is frighteningly high. Almost every player he kills will drop a talent or a cheat item."
Xiao Huohuo was taken aback and asked, "Who?"
" Ling Yi!"
"Who is Ling Yi?" Xiao Huohuo was in the second batch of players and had not yet met Ling Yi.
"Top spot on all three leaderboards: Game Level Ranking, Equipment Ranking, and PvP Ranking."
"He'll definitely participate in the tournament; you'll see then. If you run into him, you'd better just admit defeat."
Xiao Huohuo frowned, opened the system interface, and checked the rankings.
The names on the list all have their equipment and basic attributes displayed. After seeing Ling Yi's equipment and attributes, Xiao Huohuo couldn't help but gasp.
"3600 Battle Power? How can it be so strong?" Xiao Huohuo frowned.
Throughout the day, he spent his time constantly grinding monsters, leveling up, or engaging in PvP battles across various Map, almost without a moment's rest.
Even with his own strength, plus in-game level, equipment, and skill bonuses, his Combat is barely over 200. So how did he get this 3600 Combat?
Was he already a powerful figure before entering the game world?
"Doesn't it seem exaggerated?" Ye Fan asked.
Xiao Huohuo shook his head and laughed, "It's not just exaggerated, it's downright outrageous!"
"But if I told you that Ling Yi only had Battle Power of 5 points when he first logged into the game yesterday, would you believe me?"
"How is this possible?" Xiao Huohuo was very concerned about how difficult it was for Qin Chu to level up in the game now.
There are too many people and too few monsters, so PvP is everywhere. If you want to fight monsters in peace, you'll be Sneak Attack countless times.
"You mean, there's something strange about this Ling Yi?"
"Either his cheat ability is extremely overpowered, or..."
Both fell silent for a moment, then exchanged a glance and, with perfect understanding, walked towards the Teleport Gate, entering the Snow God Yuanbao Map to start grinding monsters.
Clearly, they have given up on participating in the tournament.
On the other side, at the entrance of the clothing store, Ximen Chuixue, Lu Xiaofeng, Hua Manlou, and... Death God Conan were also discussing the arena tournament.
"There can only be one winner in this arena competition; everyone else is merely a target for Plunder. As things stand, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the ultimate victor will be Ling Yi."
Lu Xiaofeng analyzed as he looked at the rankings.
"I've been observing the Chat Channel, and throughout the day, the player who appeared most frequently in the Chat Channel was Ling Yi."
Conan adjusted his glasses and said.
"Six hours ago, Lin Heng was killed by Ling Yi for the first time. In the following half hour, Lin Heng was killed more than ten times by a player named Son Goku, until... he logged off."
Conan looked at the leaderboard and saw that Son Goku's Battle Power was currently less than 50 points.
" Lin Heng's Battle Power suddenly dropped from 1200 points to 30 points. Obviously, he revealed his cheat ability, which has now been temporarily Sealing."
"After that, Ling Yi's Battle Power increased by one or two points almost every three seconds, and it's still increasing now."
"Today, we killed thirty malicious players, but all we got were equipment drops and a small amount of experience points."
"This drop rate is highly unusual; there's only one explanation."
Conan held up one finger. "This Ling Yi is the mastermind behind this game world."
Hua Manlou shook his head and looked at Conan, saying, "Young friend Conan, aren't you being too hasty? Perhaps, Ling Yi's cheat ability is precisely what increases the chances of Plunder?"
" Old Hua is right, but I agree with Conan's statement," Lu Xiaofeng said with a smile.
"Where's the evidence? We can't just make this judgment because the other side is too strong, can we?"
"It's just a feeling!"
"You've always seemed a bit unreliable. Have you forgotten about the Red Robe Pavilion incident?"
Lu Xiaofeng's four eyebrows twitched, and he rolled his eyes at Hua Manlou. "Why are you bringing up something you don't want to talk about?"
"Then we'll find out by trying!" Ximen Chuixue said.
"Hey, you can't beat Ling Yi. Don't go looking for trouble. His Battle Power is much higher than yours."
"High Battle Power doesn't mean you won't die!" Ximen Chuixue said coldly.
"Fine, go ahead and try. In the end, it's just a matter of your level being reset and your swordsmanship and martial arts being Sealing for a while." Lu Xiaofeng shrugged indifferently.
"Go for it!" Conan laughed from the side.
"It would be good to test the waters!" Hua Manlou said with a smile.
The Human Reincarnation and headed towards the Map Teleport Gate.
"Where should we upgrade?" Hua Manlou asked.
"Let's go to Demon Dragon Ridge. The Map there is huge, and the monsters there can drop Demon Dragon Ridge Health Recovery Orb fragments. The Health Recovery Orb are too low-level; we simply can't withstand the world boss!" Conan said.
"Then let's go to Demon Dragon Ridge."
As Ximen Chuixue watched the three people disappear through the Teleport Gate, he felt, for some reason, an urge to grab his sword and rush up to them, and chop them down.
Looking again in the direction of the event NPCs, there were still so many people. He frowned, then used his Qinggong to leap over their heads.
In the blink of an eye, he reached the very center. With a flash of cold light from his sword, more than a dozen players screamed and fell to the ground, immediately Resurrection Revive.
And those who died happened to be Nick, Natasha, Barton, Tony, Steve, Coulson, and others from the Marvel Universe.
In fact, the reason why other players were stuck here and unable to get close to the NPC was also due to Nick and his group.
According to Nick's idiotic idea, as long as they control the event NPCs and prevent other players from getting close, then other players will naturally be unable to participate in the arena event.
Then, the final winner of the arena competition will naturally fall into their hands.
Nick's idea is good, it's just a pity he doesn't have the ability.
Ordinary players might be able to restrain themselves a bit, mostly just observing, and most players don't really have much interest in arena matches anyway.
However, some ambitious individuals, or those like Ximen Chuixue who pursue the ultimate Martial Dao, naturally wouldn't tolerate Nick and his group.
Among Nick and the others, Barton is currently the strongest Combat, but he only has Battle Power of 80, so he is no match for Ximen Chuixue's fast sword.
"Those not participating in the event, get out!" Ximen Chuixue brandished his longsword again, instantly eliminating several players who were occupying space to watch the excitement, and said in an icy voice.
Just then, a child's angry roar rang out from the back of the crowd, "Damn it, I want to fight in the ring! Get out of my way, you Kamehameha...!"
A beam of white light suddenly burst out from behind the crowd, instantly wiping out all the players in that line.
Ximen Chuixue's pupils contracted, and he murmured, "Such terrifying destructive power."
The Combat that this kid unleashed in that instant was at least Wu Bai.
"Yay!"
Kid Goku and Krillin yelled and rushed along the cleared route, arriving in front of the event NPC in the blink of an eye.
After registering for the event, the two used a random stone and disappeared to an unknown location.
Now, the players who had been waiting in the pit to watch the excitement dared not linger any longer. Some flew away, others retreated. This was really a death wish; nobody wanted their hard-earned levels to be wasted like this.
If watching a spectacle could kill someone, then what's the point of watching ghosts?
A moment later, the once crowded square became empty.
The remaining players are basically people with a certain level of skill and confidence who want to sign up for the arena competition.
These people were also extremely wary of each other, fearing that someone might suddenly jump out and attack them.
"We don't need to be so wary. If we want to determine a winner, we'll wait until the arena battle begins; the outcome will be clear then."
Zhang Sanfeng suddenly shouted.
" Perfected Zhang is right, that's how it should be."
"Hmph, that black slave is truly despicable; I'll kill him if I see him again."
The players who were previously unaware of what was happening now realized Nick and his group's behavior of reserving spots, and they were all immediately enraged.
"Those foreigners harbor wicked intentions and should be killed!"
Nick and the others, who had just Resurrection from the safe zone, looked at each other in bewilderment.
Natasha rolled her eyes at Nick and said, "I told you your method would anger everyone, and now look what happened."
Nick said coldly, "Do you think they won't kill us if we don't do anything? Most of these players are from the East, and they harbor great hostility towards us. Whether we do something or not, the outcome won't change much."
Steve sighed and said, "I'd better go level up. I'm going to farm some points."
Steve and the others were also dissatisfied with Nick's actions, but he couldn't be bothered to say anything more.
Just then, a magnificent figure descended from the sky, landing with a thunderous boom directly in front of the event NPC...
