"I declare, the champion of this world's number one martial arts tournament is—'Blood Hand Man Slaughter'!"

'Wan Donglin' announced, "Now... let the specially invited guest, Alliance Hierarch Pu Dongyun, present the award to the champion!"

Under the gaze of the crowd, Pu Dongyun, holding the golden trophy, ascended the platform and looked at 'Blood Hand Man Slaughter,' from whose fists blood still dripped.

He sighed and gave 'Blood Hand Man Slaughter' the trophy, "Young man, although I know your kind does not die, you must still uphold martial virtue..."

This was purely an admonition from his senior stature.

But 'Blood Hand Man Slaughter' just raised his eyebrows, "Old man... you're really annoying!"

Looking into the young man's dark eyes, Pu Dongyun suddenly felt a strong sense of danger, "You..."

The next moment, 'Blood Hand Man Slaughter' raised his fist high and, with a sinister laugh, smashed it into Pu Dongyun's chest.

Pu Dongyun, as if struck by a giant hammer, had his chest caved in and his internal organs shattered, spraying blood as he flew off the platform, dying before he even hit the ground.

Crash!

The body hit the ground, leaving the arena in silence.

...

"Damn, damn, damn... Blood Hand Man Slaughter, what are you doing? He's not a player!"

'Wan Donglin' screamed, staring at 'Blood Hand Man Slaughter,' who showed no regard for martial virtue, his mouth gradually agape.

"You..."

On the stands, Jiang Shang's smile stiffened on his face.

Looking at the panic-stricken Wang He and others nearby, he suddenly felt like crying.

It was Pu Dongyun, the Yiqi Alliance Hierarch, who had died!

Moreover, he was killed by an otherworldly being right in front of everyone, invited by him!

His plans, his efforts... all vanished with that punch, gone... gone...

"'Blood Hand Man Slaughter,' are you insane? Or are you a spy from the Immortal Sect?"

Jiang Shang stood up and shouted loudly.

"How could you kill someone?"

"That's too much!"

The female players in the audience also gossiped among themselves. A player's death would usually cause the body to dissipate into a white light, but Pu Dongyun's body lay below the platform, a dark red pool of blood spreading around it.

The scene, filled with shock, made some feel nauseous.

...

"Chirp chirp, chirp chirp, you're all so annoying!"

'Blood Hand Man Slaughter' glared around, scoffing, "It's just a game, right? I kill whoever I want... What are plans and leaders to me? Who are you to represent me?"

"Motherfucker, he's a dumbass player from the chaotic evil faction!"

Jiang Shang held his head in pain, suddenly feeling a desire to cry.

Even the most perfect plans, faced with these foolish players, just couldn't succeed.

His great scheme hadn't even started before it died prematurely...

Dead...

Dead...

"Everyone, as you have seen, this was all 'Blood Hand Man Slaughter's doing; it has nothing to do with us... Let us capture Blood Hand Man Slaughter, kill or do as you wish with him!"

Jiang Shang quickly turned to the still shaken Wang He and others, "Regarding the death of the alliance hierarch... ah..."

He didn't even know what to say anymore.

Even if we give up the "Blood Hand Man Slaughter," will others believe us?

What will the Three Elements City Lord think?

The experts from Snow Viewing Tower have already rushed out.

Although most of them are Ninth Grade, with a few Eighth Grades, there are many of them, and they can use tools like crossbows and gunpowder...

Using a crossbow as a normal person is completely different from an Eighth Grade Martial Artist using it.

In the blink of an eye, 'Blood Hand Man Slaughter' was driven to a dead end.

"Ha ha, after 24 hours, I'll be a good man again!"

He wasn't panicked at all, rushing into the group of players, moving like a nimble cat, wreaking massive havoc, taking dozens of players with him on the road, then getting blown into a streak of white light...

The martial arts competition site was a mess.

"Ah, ah, ah..."

Jiang Shang held his head, almost wanting to roll around on the ground...

Heaven have mercy, if he had known that a spontaneous little competition among players would end up like this... he would definitely have strangled 'Blood Hand Man Slaughter' first!

"Jiang Shang, this isn't like you."

On one side, 'Qiu Xian' Huang Tianyao walked over, sighing.

"Are you here to mock me?"

"Not at all... I'm here to try to remedy the situation." Huang Tianyao shook his head. "The situation has changed too drastically now, our main supporters have been killed by us... It's not just about one person, players are a collective, most NPCs will definitely hold all of us accountable! By the way... can we recharge, or have the developers respawn Pu Dongyun, even if we have to pay them privately?"

"That's impossible... NPCs only have one life, once dead, they're gone."

Jiang Shang shook his head disheartenedly.

"Then there's nothing we can do, the situation in Three Elements City has abruptly changed, perhaps even the City Lord will come after us..."

Huang Tianyao laughed, "Suddenly starting a guild war scenario, it seems not bad!"

"I think we should set some rules; these special NPCs need certain protection." Jiang Shang said. "This time it's just Pu Dongyun, if the player levels get any higher and they kill Er Ha, what will we do?"

"What do you mean?" Huang Tianyao stroked his chin.

"If the official game doesn't have a red-name mechanic or penalties, we'll implement them!" Jiang Shang gritted his teeth.

Snow Viewing Tower and Immortal Sect, already have the power to influence the major trends of the player community.

"What are you planning to do?"

Huang Tianyao asked.

"That Blood Hand Man Slaughter, he said, after 24 hours he will be a good man again, and I don't care if he was lying or bought perfect resurrection from the shop. Anyway, we need to have him hunted down, killed! Then we guard his spring, use up his perfect resurrection attempts, and then he can only wait 24 hours to reenter the game... Kill him several times, and try to make him quit the game!"

"A persuasion-to-quit strategy?" Huang Tianyao pondered. "Isn't this punishment a bit too severe?"

"This 'Game Different World' is very different!"

Jiang Shang stated seriously, "Don't tell me you haven't noticed anything... the mere existence of this game is a huge problem, I even suspect, this world is real! So... if we continue with a player's mindset, we'll definitely suffer a huge loss in the future."

Huang Tianyao: "You're already suffering a huge loss..."

"Ah, ah, ah... Qiu Xian, are you ready to wage war?"

"Bring it on, guild war, who's afraid, you little dog!" Huang Tianyao yelled.

"Forget it, forget it, I'll concede this time, I give up..."

Jiang Shang looked at a few old martial masters next to him, ready to run away, suddenly feeling very tired, so very tired...

"Ha ha... That's more like it, I'm always magnanimous, let's cooperate this time."

Huang Tianyao said, "But... guarding the spring of a Seventh-Grade Martial Artist who can continuously resurrect, the cost is huge, and if we're not careful, he'll escape..."

"No matter how great the cost, we have to do it!"

Jiang Shang said through gritted teeth.
