"You talk too much nonsense!"
Ling Yi's Ying Yi, and the next moment he appeared in front of the long-haired youth, punching the Guided Arrow Guided Arrow shattering it as it was still condensing.
Then he grabbed the purple longbow from the long-haired youth's hand and threw him off the stage, bow and all.
He didn't come to his senses until the long-haired youth fell off the stage and lost 20 health points.
"You actually Sneak Attack?" the long-haired youth said, feeling wronged.
Fighting involves Sneak Attack Sneak Attack? This guy looks pretty energetic, how could he ask such a brainless question?
What's wrong with this guy looking like he's about to cry?
"Why don't you go ask the monsters in the wild if they know what a Sneak Attack is? You idiot!"
This guy is another one of those so-called genius professionals who are all show and no substance.
These types of professionals generally have very high talent levels, come from extremely powerful families, have someone to guide them through dungeons, and don't need to lift a finger when grinding monsters. They are equipped with high-level gear, but in reality, they are just pretenders with little to no Combat experience.
Online, people like this are called "useless geniuses."
The data looks Lili at first glance, but once things get serious, they start crying.
Just like this guy standing in the boxing ring, it's unbearable to watch.
Then the long-haired youth jumped up and bounced back onto the ring.
Is this some kind of rule-breaking behavior? He's already fallen off the ring, and he still has the nerve to jump back up?
But it doesn't matter.
From the moment he grabbed the microphone from the principal, there were practically no rules anymore; now, whoever had the bigger fist was the one in charge of the rules.
Looks like I need to be a bit harsher, otherwise if everyone ended up like this guy, we wouldn't get anything done today.
Ling Yi's purpose in jumping up was to end the Combat as soon as possible, clear out a wave of attributes, and then retreat.
Ling Yi can't level up casually now; the higher his level, the shorter his time in the Glory Canyon will be.
Glory Canyon is a level 40 wilderness area, and the level requirement to enter is between 40 and 51.
To maximize your merit points, it's best to enter at level 40.
I need to buy West City in the Merit Shop first.
Other professionals try every means to level up, but Ling Yi is the opposite; he levels up too fast and has to suppress his level.
Since you can't upgrade freely, you can only focus on accumulating gold, stacking equipment, and farming attributes.
This time, the long-haired youth didn't waste any more words and immediately shot Guided Arrow at Ling Yi.
The Guided Arrow struck Ling Yi's forehead, but only generated a series of data bullets above Ling Yi head.
Black cesium has "evasion," red cesium has "damage reduction," green cesium has "poison resistance," and blue cesium has "resistance to superior damage."
"Wow, your gear is pretty impressive!" Ling Yi exclaimed, somewhat surprised.
The fact that Ling Yi was able to trigger so many comments at once is already quite remarkable; at least his status stats seem pretty strong.
If it were an ordinary professional, they would probably be lying down by now.
"Unfortunately, even if I gave you the chance, you were useless!" Ling Yi shook his head and disappeared.
Then, a scream rang out, and the long-haired youth flew out like a cannonball, with "Damage -100" data barrage floating in the air.
Yes, the damage value was only 100 points; this was the result of Ling Yi's Subtlety control.
Do you really think Ling Yi spent seven days lying around in the Glory Canyon world?
During these seven days, Ling Yi spent most of his time receiving training from Meng Yue, focusing on his skills, status attributes, and the Subtlety of his character's attributes.
To put it simply, it's about training Ling Yi to have Subtlety control over data.
It's quite interesting.
Because of the data-driven nature of this world, one's physical strength and attributes, under Subtlety control, can be completely unrelated to damage values.
For example, Ling Yi's Ling Yi just now had at least two tons of force. Under normal circumstances, this long-haired youth would have been killed instantly.
No, it wasn't that they were instantly killed; they were probably shattered.
With Subtlety data control, Ling Yi can precisely manage a person's health after striking them.
Although Ling Yi has mastered the art of Subtlety data control, Ling Yi still doesn't understand the underlying principles.
Meng Yue didn't understand this either.
Ling Yi could only interpret it as simply the way this world was ruled.
Of course, Ling Yi didn't really care about the actual situation; as long as he knew how to use it, that was enough.
However, most professionals are unaware of this skill of achieving Subtlety control.
Just like the military leaders, provincial leaders, and city leaders in the stands, they were all completely bewildered at this moment.
Needless to say, the other professionals in the audience were also there.
They didn't understand why, even after knocking someone away, they only lost 100 points of health.
Hmm, no, this unlucky guy crashed straight into the wall of the teaching building, losing another 100 health points. He fell off the wall, hit the ground, and lost another 50 health points.
A total of 250 health points were reduced.
250 health points, while not enough to kill the long-haired youth outright, or even seriously injure him, were still not a pleasant amount for someone who had never been injured before.
Right now, I'm lying there questioning the meaning of life.
" Epic Grade gear is amazing! Without the protection of Epic Grade set, this guy would probably be dead already."
Below the stage, the Big Smarty and Yan Lü spoke again.
The other Big Smarty also suddenly realized the truth and attributed this phenomenon to the long-haired youth's equipment.
Otherwise, there's no way to explain it.
But Liu Wenshan and the others in the stands looked solemn and puzzled.
They lacked the ability to control Subtlety, but Ling Yi's strength and the damage he inflicted were clearly disproportionate.
Liu Wenshan asked Zhao Hong, "You prepared high-level items for Changming?"
The long-haired youth is named Yu Changming. He is Zhao Hong's apprentice. After the sixth job advancement, professionals can start the apprenticeship program.
In the apprenticeship system, the apprentice's strength will provide a attribute bonus to the Final Master, and the bonus percentage varies.
The higher the apprentice's talent, the higher the bonus percentage. F-level talent provides a 5% bonus, and the bonus increases by 1% for each talent level increase. SS and S Grade talents can provide a bonus of up to 13%.
For example, Yu Changming can give Zhao Hong an 11% bonus to his own attributes.
Similarly, the higher the Final Master's level, the more disciples they can take on; an F-level master can take on 1 disciple, while an SS or S Grade can take on nine disciples.
Zhao Hong, with his A-level talent, was able to take on six disciples, and Yu Changming was one of those six disciples.
He was also the most talented of Zhao Hong's six apprentices.
Upon hearing Liu Wenshan's question, the others also looked at Zhao Hong.
Zhao Hong shook his head. " Changming only has a level 15 Epic Grade Poison Sting Set."
"Are you sure?" asked Guan Xiaoyun, the commander of the Eastern District Army.
Zhao Hong nodded.
"Then this injury is not right. Based on my judgment, Ling Yi's punch must have had a force of at least two to three thousand jin to produce such an effect."
"Without equipment, he can deal at least two to three thousand damage, roughly one point of health per kilogram. Unless your apprentice has other high-level items or equipment, it's impossible for him to only deal this much damage."
The others nodded in agreement.
As professionals who have lived for decades, they certainly possess this level of judgment.
"What's the point of you guessing? Just call your apprentice over and ask him."
Soon, Yu Changming was brought before the group of people.
Yu Changming looked dejected at this moment, clearly still reeling from the blow he had just suffered.
However, he had already used a healing potion, and apart from looking a little disheveled, his health had been fully restored.
" Changming, display the professional panel." Zhao Hong was somewhat disappointed to see his apprentice like this.
He always cherished this apprentice very much, regarding him as his pride and the successor to his mantle.
With S Grade talent and the rare Thunder Archer class, his future achievements will undoubtedly surpass his.
But now it seems that Yu Changming has become the "useless genius" that people online are talking about.
It seems I'll have to give this kid more practical combat training from now on, otherwise he'll really become a useless piece of trash.
Yu Changming displayed his professional player panel.
To be honest, his stats are already pretty impressive. At level 22, he has over a thousand health points, several thousand attack power, and nearly three hundred defense.
But after seeing Yu Changming's surname, everyone became even more puzzled.
Just then, Gao Yao, the commander of the Southern District Army, pointed to the arena and said, "Look!"
Everyone looked towards the arena.
It turns out that Ling Yi had said something that angered the professionals below the arena, and they were now rushing onto the stage in a swarm.
Leading the charge was Yan Lü, that Big Smarty.
However, this was not what shocked them the most; what shocked them the most was still the harm Ling Yi had caused.
It's not that the damage is too high or too low, but rather that the damage is wrong.
These people all received the same treatment Yu Changming: being sent flying by his attacks. Just like Yu Changming, each of them had data bulletins floating above their heads, all displaying "100 HP lost," without exception.
"This is impossible!" Gao Yao stood up and exclaimed in disbelief.
"Everyone has different equipment, attributes, and many other factors such as skills and status modifiers. When attacked by the same enemy, the damage will inevitably vary," Guan Xiaoyun said, frowning.
"Achieving precise damage control is virtually impossible."
"Unless, he possesses some Special Skills or equipment that allows him to force damage from empty targets."
Everyone nodded; this was the most reasonable guess.
" Ling Yi's defense is quite terrifying; it's completely immune to damage."
"It's not just defense; I'm afraid many of his status stats are maxed out. Otherwise, it's impossible for him not to lose a single drop of health. You know, many skills have forced damage reduction effects," Gao Yao said.
Everyone nodded again.
For example, poison damage, ice damage, dark damage, and curse damage can all cause forced damage.
Unless Ling Yi stacks all these resistances to the maximum, it's impossible for him not to lose a single drop of health.
"It's now basically confirmed that Ling Yi and that Meng Yue are the Abyss Clearers," Zhao Hong said, looking at the arena that Ling Yi had cleared in the blink of an eye.
"What about Meng Yue? I think she must be quite something too, right?" Guan Xiaoyun asked at this moment.
Zhao Hong looked at Peng Bahai and asked, "Where is Meng Yue now?"
Peng Bahai paused for a moment, then whispered, "I... I don't know where Meng Yue is either."
"Hmm?" Zhao Hong's face darkened.
"Commander Zhao Jun, I've been secretly having people follow, uh, protect Ling Yi and Meng Yue. Around 1 a. m. this morning, Meng Yue left Ling Yi's house alone and went out of the West City gate."
Then, Meng Yue suddenly disappeared.
"What do you mean by suddenly disappearing?" Zhao Hong asked, frowning.
"It just vanished into thin air. It must have been done using Teleportation Scroll or something similar."
"Why wasn't this important matter reported in advance?" Zhao Hong's face was extremely ugly.
