Spectators didn't know why Lin Yifan still wanted to continue the match. Did he really want to risk losing that ten billion in damages? Or did he genuinely have the strength to win it back?

Given the current circumstances, defeating Qin Zikang's Yagami Iori within just one hour seemed impossible; hence, they thought Lin Yifan's action was unwise.

"Ah, I hope my idol will be a bit wiser in the next round."

Being outsiders, they couldn't advise him, so they could only watch.

"Dada!"

After inserting the game coins, both sides began selecting their heroes.

This time, both sides chose the same lineup: Yamazaki Ryūji, Kagura Chizuru, and Yagami Iori.

Only the order of appearance was different.

Lin Yifan's order of appearance was the same as Qin Zikang's in the last round, from the weakest to the strongest; whereas Qin Zikang's order was the opposite, from the strongest to the weakest.

There was only one reason for this: to finish this round as quickly as possible.

This was a kind of confidence, a confidence in Yagami Iori.

Qin Zikang believed that Lin Yifan's Yamazaki Ryūji and Kagura Chizuru would be powerless, so his Yagami Iori would maintain full health until the final round. Unlike the previous round's Yamazaki Ryūji, who had his health drained and was ultimately killed.

The two chose starkly different orders of entry, one confident, the other conservative—any discerning person could see who was more confident.

"It's all over, he's setting the pace for a one-versus-three!"

"Young Master Qin is too bold, but it's not surprising, seeing how formidable his Yagami Iori is."

"I just hope that this round, my idol won't lose too badly; it would be best if he could win a round."

No one had much faith in Lin Yifan, thinking that he would be quickly defeated in this round.

Hearing all this idle talk, Zhou Jiajia and Su Qingqing became even more nervous.

"Yifan, you must win, show these people some color."

They silently prayed in their hearts, hoping for Lin Yifan to achieve victory in the match.

After selecting the heroes and arranging the order of appearance, the match began.

In the first round, as soon as he entered, Qin Zikang's Yagami Iori took the initiative and fiercely attacked Lin Yifan's Yamazaki Ryūji.

Lin Yifan wanted to fight back, but he was not very skilled with Yamazaki Ryūji, so he was completely suppressed throughout the round.

He also wanted to use the "Kick Sand" infinite combo to kill Qin Zikang's Yagami Iori, but he never found the opportunity; therefore, he was quickly defeated.

The first round ended abruptly in less than fifteen seconds.

Everyone marveled at the prowess of Qin Zikang's Yagami Iori, leaving no chance for his opponent.

The quick defeat in the first round made Zhou Jiajia and Su Qingqing inevitably worried. But until the last moment, they refused to believe that Lin Yifan would lose.

In the second round, it was Yagami Iori versus Kagura Chizuru.

Kagura Chizuru, Lin Yifan had observed players in the town play her—he noted they weren't top-tier but were still mid-to-high level. Therefore, he pretty much knew all the skills she should have.

So, as Qin Zikang's Yagami Iori leaped forward, he immediately activated the "Heavenly God" skill, jumped up, and aimed to strike Qin Zikang's Yagami Iori.

Unfortunately, he leaped a fraction of a second too late, allowing Qin Zikang's Yagami Iori to jump to the highest point first and suppress Kagura Chizuru from jumping further.

Qin Zikang's Yagami Iori then punched, knocking his Kagura Chizuru out of the air,

just as he was about to get up, he executed "Lily Folding," jumped behind him, turned and kicked him, then followed with "Dream Bullet second stage, Three Sunflowers, external style," knocking Lin Yifan's Kagura Chizuru to the ground.

And just as his Kagura Chizuru was about to rise again, he repeated the trick, performed "Lily Folding," jumped behind Kagura Chizuru, kicked Kagura Chizuru, then followed with "Dream Bullet second stage, Three Sunflowers, external style," killing Lin Yifan's Kagura Chizuru.

With just these few moves, Lin Yifan's Kagura Chizuru was killed, and the time was still under ten seconds, unbelievably fast.

"My God! Each round faster than the last, at this rate, the idol is bound to lose!"

"I think Young Master Qin's hands are back, it's almost impossible for the idol to win."

Losing another round really hit their morale, and Zhou Jiajia and her group couldn't cheer up at all.

However, Lin Yifan's mind was as calm as still water, the more so, the more excited he became because he had learned many strategies that he would use to defeat Qin Zikang.

After losing two more games, Qin Zikang got even better at the game; at this point, he was brimming with confidence, not taking Lin Yifan seriously.

In the third round, it was Yagami Iori against Yagami Iori again.

Having learned the tactic of attack leap from Qin Zikang, Lin Yifan immediately demonstrated it.

Thus, as soon as the match started, he quickly maneuvered, controlling Yagami Iori to leap. The other side, Qin Zikang did likewise.

Both leaped at almost the same time, met in the air, and each landed a kick on the other, a draw.

After falling to the ground, everything reset; this time Lin Yifan again controlled Yagami Iori to jump towards Qin Zikang's Yagami Iori. This time, however, Qin Zikang didn't leap up but crouched for a Light Foot, waiting for Lin Yifan's Yagami Iori to fall into the trap he had set.

At that distance, Lin Yifan's Yagami Iori couldn't use "Lily Folding," so there was no need to fear that move.

He chose the position very well, and as Yagami Iori descended from the sky, he was hit precisely by the foot he kicked out, thus Lin Yifan's Yagami Iori was injured by his kick.

With this opening, everything else was easy, and the next moment, Qin Zikang quickly performed a combination, killing Lin Yifan's Yagami Iori on the spot.

He lost again, the second round was almost a complete defeat; Qin Zikang's Yagami Iori barely lost a drop of blood, which was a real humiliation.

"Ah! I knew this would be the outcome."

"With Young Master Qin's experience and variety of tactics, how could it be otherwise?"

"I hope the idol doesn't keep humiliating himself."

All the players sighed, feeling it was truly hopeless.

However, Lin Yifan didn't give up; the more challenging it was, the more he wanted to challenge, so there would still be another round.

"What do you say? Still want to compete?" Qin Zikang taunted, unable to stop himself from boasting in front of Lin Yifan.

Lin Yifan still smirked as usual, then dominantly responded, "Why would I be afraid?"

"666, I just love your unyielding spirit," Qin Zikang couldn't help but mock.

If Lin Yifan kept competing against him tonight, Lin Yifan was sure to owe him a lot of money by evening; thinking about showing off in front of beauties while earning money made him extremely pleased.

Hearing Lin Yifan still wanted to compete, Zhou Jiajia and Su Qingqing frowned and pleaded, "Yifan! Don't compete anymore. It's like this now, continuing is meaningless. Why not switch to another game?"

"What? Have even you lost faith in me?" Lin Yifan turned and retorted.
