Ye Ci bade fareith the Gnomes and immediately left the party when the battle was over She refused to remain in a free-win tearand hall in the Golan Arena There was a huge billboard in the hall, displaying parties that were looking forfro for a random party with the help of NPCs She stood in front of billboard, studying the details of each party Despite attracting nore the stares she received for the sake of finding a good party
There were multiple battle modes available in the Golan Arena Of course, players would have no need of searching for tea in 2v2 battles have a fixed duo Most of the parties that were in need ofpart in 3v3 and 5v5 battles The rosters of these parties would constantly change as players coo It was almost impossible to form a party with a fixed roster under such condition The 10v10 battle mode, on the other hand, were always uild Recruites for 10v10 battles would never appear on the billboard Most of the recruiting parties were seeking to take part in 3v3 and 5v5 battles
The best way to earn Battle Points in the Golan Arena was to take part in 1v1 battles However, such battles would typically last for a short duration of 30 seconds, and the victor would then be decided with 2 criteria: The first player as able to obtain three kills would win the battle even before the time was up If none of the combatants were able to secure any kills, the player with the highest ae dealt would be the victor
1v1 battles rely heavily on individual strength As long as a player was skillful enough, he or she would be able to secure a kill within the time limit, and be awarded with 300 Battle Points If both combatants possess the sae to their opponents before time runs out
That hy most players would still opt for 2v2, 3v3, and 5v5 battles even when they could earn more Battle Points from 1v1 battles Only players ere truly skillful would take part in this battle ree of teamwork Many players who do not have a fixed partner would shun away fro the 3v3 or 5v5 battles If a player was lucky enough, he or she would be paired with a decent teas ell, they could earn a lot of points
The opening of the Golan Arena served as an indicator It foretold the beginning of the battle between the four continents The battles would not be fought in stadiums or arena, but between players in cities and in the wild This was also the core feature of Fate’s major patch called “A New Continent” When the patch was released, the Middle Continent would be made available to players from all continents With the exception of the major cities, every round where players could engage each other in coame It would allow players to acquire PVP equip their skills in actual coly allow thehtered Players would take part in battles in the Golan Arena to improve their combat capabilities
Of course, it was a fact that still ree of the game They knew that the Battle Points they’ve acquired froed for PVP equipment But… What are these equipment for? This was a question that was overlooked byrise to the countless free-win teah it was apparent that the players would naturally have their own playstyle, Ye Ci still frowned upon the free-win teams They were refused to work for what they want, and refused to work to improve their PVP skills When the new patch was released, these players were swept aside by the new changes introduced into the gaain exceptional PVP skills in her past life by i herself in 1v1 battles Her best record in 1v1 battles was an astonishing 287 consecutive victories that was the envy of countless players, and this record was held by Ye Ci for a very long time This hy Ye Ci was very confident in her PVP abilities, and was also why she did not choose to take part in 1v1 battles in her current life
What she needed was to brush up on her teamwork, and not a display of her own co a random 5v5 team was her best choice She would be able to face enemies of different classes in battle as well as a variety to different teath was liet good was through practice
There was a huge a for members on the billboard However, it was quite easy to tell the fixed teams apart from the random teams A fixed team that was in need of an additional players would have its name displayed, while a random team would appear as “Rando for a party easier for players
Ye Ci filtered away the randoh the fixed teams
: A skillful 5v5 party armed with Tier 8 equipment with a win streak of 34 battles in need of a DPS player! Don’t bother joining us if you’re not good
: 3v3 battles only! We need a Healer with great positioning and game sense!
: We’ve won 40 battles in a row yesterday! We need a good DPS with excellent positioning and gaears We only want players who are lvl 38 and above
: 5v5 teaame sense, and can ith the team Don’t come to us if you’re not confident in your PVP capabilities
……
Even with the randoh as well The game had a population of nearly 1 billion players Even when those ere exploring dungeons, or were life players, and those who did not have sufficient level to take part in battles in the arena were not taken into account, there was still millions of players left in the arena
Ye Ci was bedazzled by the sheer number of team names displayed on the billboard As a player who had only took part in 1v1 battles, she was inexperienced when it cafor a lvl40+ player with Tier 8 equiph requireroup naturally meant that their members were rather capable players as well It would be easier for Ye Ci to ith the party
She immediately joined the party
The teae, a Warrior, and a Rogue With Ye Ci added into the ed characters, 2 melee characters, and a healer A team like this could easily achieve victory if it did not have the ainst a team with characters that were equipped with crowd control abilities
However, Ye Ci was slightly dissatisfied with her choice She had intended to join a team with a more unconventional team composition so that her teamould be pushed to the limit
Despite that, Ye Ci did not have the habit of i a party that she joined She was even able to bare with free-win tea teazi You would always cause a small coasps when she joined the party, “Therewith my eyes! The player who has just joined our teaht?”
“There’s only one Gongzi You in the Eastern Continent and the entire gazi You joined our teaonna buy a lottery when this is over!”
Ye Ci could not muster up a response for the obvious enthusias the rest of her team A Human male walked up to her and introduced hiTheScenery, a Cleric, and the leader of this party”
The three otherthemselves to Ye Ci, “I’ht, a Sorceress”
“The naue”
Ye Ci spoke up after they were done with their introductions, “Hi, I’zi You who frequently got First Blood? The one who killed Werebeast Shaman Buru?” as the only feht appeared to be interested in gossip, “Are you that Gongzi You who left Steel-Blooded Battle Spear to join Upwards Ho!? Are you the Gongzi You as accused of bad things by Steel-Blooded Battle Spear in the foruzi You as called out by Custozi You who had a battle with Fleeting Tizi You who had a scandal with Purity Essence? The Gongzi You who disappeared for an entire eous Elf, and her ability to gossip was even greater than her looks She bombarded Ye Ci with questions after questions without even skipping a breath
The corner of Ye Ci’s mouth twitched She was dumbfounded by the sudden torrent of questions, and was unable to coood a speaker as Glistening Moonlight, but it was not an ability that she was jealous of
Glistening Moonlight was apparently a very izi You? Are you?” asked the Elf when she received no answer from Ye Ci
Despite their own curiosity, Beauty’s Grave, AppreciatingTheScenery, and Returning Winds were eht AppreciatingTheScenery nudged Glistening Moonlight with his elbow, hoping that she would stop her line of questioning After all, the person standing before theod-tier player as also the best Hunter in Fate
“Aiya, Mountains, why did you do that?” Glistening Moonlight, as oblivious to AppreciatingTheScenery’s intention, directed a glare at the man She then turned around and spoke to Ye Ci with a tone full of enthusiaszi You?”
The corners of Ye Ci’s ain “Duplicated naaaze of Glistening Moonlight
The ansas a confirht’s questions Under normal circumstances, a simple “yes” would have suffice But wouldn’t it ht Ye Ci to herself
“In other words You’re Gongzi You! The real Gongzi You!” Glistening Moonlight squealed in delight She ran up to Ye Ci and grabbed hold of her hands, staring at her with eyes burning with passion
Such enthusias that Ye Ci was not used to She cowered back out of reflex, and subconsciously atteht’s tight grip prevented her fro just that
“There’s a question that I’ve wanted to ask when I zi You”
“What is it?” Ye Ci finally relented under the enthusiasm of her teae, this battle would not proceed well
Glistening Moonlight blinked her beautiful green eyes, and asked, ““So… When you and Fleeting Tio over to the Western Continent? Or will he hed up blood when she heard the question
At thatto her head, and her eyes turned red with anger When she stared at the innocent face of Glistening Moonlight, Ye Ci could not bring herself to vent her anger on her tea her best to suppress her sudden surge of anger She then withdrew her hand, and spoke to Glistening Moonlight with a cold voice, “I’ Time”
“Aiya, the celebrities will always use this line when asked about their love interest” Glistening Moonlight nodded, and her unspoken words ritten all over her face: I understand
Ye Ci was nearly drivento start the battle, or are we continuing the gossip?”
Ye Ci’s words were laced with anger Even an idiot could tell that the god-tier huntress was annoyed AppreciatingTheScenery iht, let’s cut the nonsense I’TheScenery immediately started the countdown, and the rest of the party iossipy nature, Glistening Moonlight was actually a decent player Even Ye Ci as a top-tier Sorceress was i
The party immediately headed to the basin at the center of the map when the battle started
The Golan Arena offered more than 500 maps, and each map was distinct and unique in its oay The players would be transported into a randoht or e It all depended on the luck of the players
Ye Ci and her party were transported to a flat plain with a basin at its center Both teaage each other in coa of players would be pushed to the limit The basin at theorbs Each orb came with a distinct BUFF or DEBUFF that would only be made known to players when activated
It was a co orbs While a BUFF would definitely be advantageous for her in battle, there was still a 50 chance that she ht accidentally activate a DEBUFF It was a risk that Ye Ci wanted to avoid
She juan activating the glowing orbs
