The Master’s Mask Unveiled Again
Chapter 474 - Chapter 474 Chapter 473 I Don't Really Understand This

Chapter 474: Chapter 473 I Don’t Really Understand This Chapter 474: Chapter 473 I Don’t Really Understand This Ning Qun, somewhat concerned, spoke up, “Xiangxiang, I think you should call it quits for now.

Don’t go on stage yet; this matter is definitely not as simple as it looks.”

As a veteran expert who had been through many battles, he quickly sensed the oddity of the situation, but Ning Xiang seemed utterly unconcerned.

The members of the team were all encouraging her in unison.

“Xiangxiang’s adaptability is actually quite good!

Coach, let her give it a try!

I don’t think there’s a big problem!”

“I also think it’s fine!

After all, it can’t always be us going up, that wouldn’t be right…”

Encouraged by her teammates, Ning Xiang made a promise to Ning Qun, “Dad, relax, I’ve followed you for so many years, and been with the Shadow Hunting Team for so long, I’ve definitely got some strength.

Under the current circumstances, who else in the whole Shadow Hunting Team could step up if not me?”

As she spoke, her gaze turned to Lu Mian.

“We can’t let little sister Lu Mian do it; she doesn’t understand anything!

Just think of me as a tomboy.

I might joke around normally, but when I’m needed, I’ll certainly be ready to charge into battle.”

Cheng Feng gave her a thumbs up.

Ning Xiang sighed, “Who made me the worrier since I was young?

I don’t have the luxury of a princess, nor can I enjoy the blessings of one.”

There were a total of three girls present, a member of the 1515 Team named Lucy, Ning Xiang, and then there was only Lu Mian left.

It was clear who Ning Xiang was hinting at with that cryptic remark, and with a little thought, anyone could understand.

Unfortunately, most of the boys in the Shadow Hunting Team weren’t so roundabout.

They hadn’t been battered by society or schooled in the ways of love.

They completely missed the subtlety of such nuances.

In fact, they even thought that the two girls got along pretty well.

After all, when they had asked Ning Xiang to persuade Lu Mian to come back, Lu Mian had indeed come back right away.

Girls’ friendships sure are strange.

Lu Mian didn’t quite understand all this talk, but she could sense Ning Xiang’s hostility, which she had figured out a lot about since the time Ning Xiang had gone to find her alone.

Understanding the situation made things much easier.

The two parties had already agreed on the mode of battle, and since Ning Xiang was willing to fight, it wasn’t easy for the rest to object, especially the teammates.

They genuinely didn’t want to fight against that cute and adorable little lolita.

Such a cute girl would surely cry terribly if she lost the match.

Ning Xiang was carrying Yun Sang’s destiny, bearing the honor of the entire team, ready for combat!

The opponent was well-prepared, bringing their own equipment and computers, not needing to use theirs at all.

When the computer was switched on, the crowd had already formed a circle around them.

Peng Jun looked at Yun Sang and laughed.

“My former deputy captain, do you want to reconsider?

Get your strongest player up there?

Otherwise, you might as well pack up and get ready to retire now, haha…”

Yun Sang gave him a cold glance, standing quietly beside Xiao Qimo, tilted his head, and whispered, “Do you think that girl really is that strong?”

The Shadow Hunting Team had encountered the 1515 Team many times, but they had never seen this girl, and thus it was difficult to gauge her strength.

Xiao Qimo said nothing, instead turning his head to ask Lu Mian, “What do you think?”

Lu Mian smiled, not particularly interested, “I don’t really understand.”

Yun Sang watched her, his expression thoughtful.

Ning Xiang and Lucy started their battle soon after.

Ning Xiang had thought that despite some difficulty, this battle wouldn’t have too many complications, for she had been at her father’s side for years and was not lacking in experience.

However, when she faced off against Lucy, just half a minute in, she realized something was off.

The opponent might look like a cute and obedient little sister, but when it came to fighting, she was completely at odds with her external image.

That was too ruthless!

One vulnerability after another was thrown out, and they were all heavy-weight vulnerabilities.

Ning Xiang was overwhelmed, only continuously starting to defend.

She hadn’t even launched a single attack, just focusing on protecting her own server.

The rest of the team had all sensed it; those who knew the industry could tell that the opponent was a formidable one, striking quickly, accurately, and harshly.

Ning Xiang simply couldn’t cope!

Even they, as professional players, wouldn’t dare say they could win against that cute girl.

By this point, Ning Xiang was already sweating profusely, finding the battle very strenuous.

As she took care of one side, she couldn’t manage the other, patching up one vulnerability only for another to be exploited with a virus.

Cheng Feng, worried, pinched Xun Xiaoran’s hand, “What do we do?

I feel like we’re going to lose…”

Xun Xiaoran comforted him, “Calm down, maybe Xiangxiang is playing the long game, waiting to catch a big fish.”

Everyone: “…”

It doesn’t look like that at all!

Ning Xiang felt indignant; after securing her defenses, she also began to attempt to impose vulnerabilities on the opponent.

But the vulnerabilities she set seemed like child’s play to the opponent, who could resolve them in a few swift moves.

In contrast, because she tried to attack, she neglected her defenses, which led to a careless loss.

Ning Xiang looked at the result displayed on the screen, somewhat unwilling to accept it.

“One minute twenty seconds…” Cheng Feng murmured the time.

That was the time it took for the opponent to defeat Ning Xiang.

Everyone’s gaze turned strange; when they looked at the cute girl on the other side again, it was with a mix of shock and fear.

The cute girl smiled sheepishly, “Don’t be mad, guys; I just did something randomly, and it turned out like thisaEUR|”

“…”

So much for ‘doing something randomly’.

Ning Xiang’s face was a wreck; she couldn’t accept such an outcome.

When she trained with her teammates in the team, she never performed this poorly!

But in reality, everyone could see clearly that it wasn’t that Ning Xiang lacked skill; it was that the Lolita was too fierce.

The opponent was too strong, so formidable that they didn’t have time to analyze her combat style before the battle was over.

Fast as a tornado, it made everyone’s heart tremble.

Thinking back on it now, Peng Jun didn’t seem arrogant; he really had confidence in Lucy!

Ning Xiang rose from her seat, looking deeply across at the other side.

The outcome was clear, and she looked at Yun Sang, somewhat at a loss, “I’m sorry, Brother Yun…

I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”

But what good is an apology?

Yun Sang knew it wasn’t intentional, and there was no reason for her to do so.

Yet he stared at the result on the screen, still somewhat unable to accept it.

Too fast, it was really too fast!

They had barely exchanged a few words when Ning Xiang was defeated.

In front of that Lucy, Ning Xiang was like a newly born chick, completely at the mercy of others.

Ning Qun sighed deeply; he’d known this wouldn’t be simple.

The team member sent by the opponent must possess power to shake one’s core.
