Chapter 1469 Exposing the Cheaters

1469 Exposing the Cheaters

The moment Yuan activated the formation, several people on the battlefield suddenly started lighting up like a Christmas tree, their bodies glowing bright red.

”W-what the fuck is happening to me?!”

”Why am I glowing red?!”

These players were shocked at first.

Their shock turned into puzzlement when they noticed that not every player was glowing red.

These players slowly came to a realization when they saw the other players who were glowing red had consumed performance-enhancing drugs right before the match began.

Upon this realization, they started sweating profusely, and like paranoid individuals, they anxiously looked around to see if something was going to happen to them.

However, nothing happened even after many moments.

Eventually, these players stopped glowing red. Seeing this, they all sighed in relief.

”W-what happened just now?! Why were all of those players glowing red?” Yao Xiaoxiao questioned out loud.

”Did someone from the Demon Sealing Faction use a technique? But none of them have moved yet, and nothing happened to those players who glowed red! What a weird phenomenon!”

Meanwhile, inside a large room filled with high-ranking officials from the Cultivatorsʼ Association that managed the Great Battlefield, Chairman Lee slammed the table in anger and shouted, ”These cheating bastards! I cannot believe how many of them felt the need to cheat despite already having a major advantage! Do none of them know shame?!”

”Heavens… I also canʼt believe it. My eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when I first saw the number of players exposed as cheaters.”

Out of the almost 42,000 players from Fiery Locust Swarm, a whopping 30,000 of them glowed red! This meant that more than half of their players were cheating with performance-

enhancing drugs!

”To think that even their leader, Xu Boqin, a Spirit Lord, would resort to cheating when they outnumber their opponents 10,000 to 1. How disgusting.”

”Is this formation really reliable? I cannot fathom how nearly the entire faction is cheating in what seems like a guaranteed victory without the need for drugs. Why would they do something so risky and stupid?” One of the people there asked out loud.

”I cannot tell you whatʼs going through their minds, but I can assure you that Player Yuan is trustworthy. He wouldnʼt lie about something like this, as it wouldnʼt benefit him in any way.” Chairman Lee said.

”Letʼs say the formation is working as intended, and all these players are cheating. What now? Do we remove all of them? That would greatly disturb the match,” another person asked.

”No, we wonʼt remove them. In fact, we wonʼt do anything.”

”What?! Youʼre just going to let them cheat?!”

”Yes. This is what Player Yuan personally requested, after all. He asked me to turn a blind eye to these cheaters until after the match.”

”W-why on earth would he do that? He couldʼve reduced his enemyʼs forces by three-quarters without doing a single thing!”

”Maybe he wasnʼt expecting for there to be so many cheaters? Whatever the reason, since itʼs his request, he cannot blame us for not acting even if it results in his factionʼs defeat.”

Sure enough, Yuan hadnʼt expected the formation to expose so many cheaters. In fact, he even doubted the formationʼs accuracy.

Of course, Yu Ning assured him that the formation was working properly.

”More than half of them are cheating, huh? Well, that wonʼt change anything.”

”Huh? What did you just say?” Wang Bingbing and the others turned to look at him with wide eyes.

”Did you just say that more than half of them are cheating? They have over 40,000 players against our 5, for heavenʼs sake!” Wu Zao cried out loud.

Yuan smiled and said, ”So what if they are cheating? Even if all of them are cheating, it just means that they will be slightly stronger than anticipated. It wonʼt change anything.”

”Anyways, they have begun to move.”

”There are 129 players coming our way. Who wants to show off first?”

Shi Lang stepped forward with a resolute face and said, ”I will go.”

”Very well.”

Yuan nodded and started playing the zither.

The moment Shi Lang heard the music, he felt a surge of strength coursing through his body, his reflexes sharpening and his body becoming lighter. It was as if he had been reborn into a stronger, more capable version of himself.

”W-what in heavenʼs name is this…?” Shi Lang inspected his body with a shocked expression.

”I just gave you some buffs, thatʼs all. How do you feel?”

He responded with a bright smile, ”Like I can fight against the entire world, much less a hundred players!”

”Youʼll encounter them if you move straight in that direction.” Yuan raised his arm and pointed in a certain direction.

Without saying anything else, Shi Lang tightly gripped his spear and started running toward the approaching enemy.

”Oh! What do we have here?! The Demon Sealing Faction has started moving, but theyʼre only sending a single member into battle!” Yan Xiaoxiao commented.

”Heavens! Look how fast heʼs moving! Heʼll encounter the Fiery Locust Swarm in no time!”

And despite moving far away from Yuan, Shi Lang could still somehow hear his music.

ʼMy body is still growing stronger! What a mythical technique!ʼ

Sometime later, Shi Lang stopped moving when he noticed a group of individuals in the distance.

The group also stopped moving when they noticed Shi Lang.

”Is he alone?”

”Seriously?”

”Hahaha! This is practically a free match!”

While the Fiery Locust Swarm players stood in place to laugh, Shi Lang activated his movement technique and quickly closed their distance.

Seeing this, the Fiery Locust Swarm players did not panic and only laughed louder.

”He really thinks he can take us on by himself!”

Most of these players were Spirit Apprentices, and only six were Spirit Masters.

”Hmph.”

Shi Lang didnʼt even bother speaking to them. The moment he was close enough, he started swinging and thrusting his spear.

The Fiery Locust Swarm players tried to surround him, but Shi Lang was simply too fast for them and quickly overwhelmed them.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The Fiery Locust Swarm playersʼ badges were destroyed rapidly, and in just a few minutes, Shi Lang took all of their lives without breaking a sweat or being hit once.
