Chapter 948: Cosmic Wins and Losses

"I ran into a top player on the Eagle Sauce Server…"

"Ten‑Thousand‑Word King."

Su Sheng hadn't even asked who it was, when Lin Huan said it.

Su Sheng wore a bewildered expression… Ten‑Thousand‑Word King?

"Probably the system's direct translation is off; it should be the 'mag' from Magnet."

Lin Huan opened, finding it funny.

Seeing Lin Huan, even though he lost, showing no sign of frustration, Su Sheng also laughed…

But later, after opening the forum and scrolling, this nickname… he hadn't really paid attention to it before.

Bypassing the firewall…

Eagle Sauce Forum

Alright…

It wasn't a mistranslation; it's really called Ten‑Thousand‑Word King…

As for that 'mag' from Magnet, the nickname has been taken by someone.

However, this Ten‑Thousand‑Word King is a top player, but the one with the official nickname is just an ordinary player… it seems they didn't even pass the Whole Server preliminaries, so they have no right to join the Global Tournament.

The reason Su Sheng knows this so clearly is because there's a dedicated post on the Eagle Sauce Forum about the nickname situation of the two of them.

After all, the Ten‑Thousand‑Word King is already a celebrity on the Eagle Sauce Server; to be precise… anyone who participates in the Global Tournament is a celebrity in their own region… considering each server only has a thousand players, those thousand are definitely top‑tier.

Uhh… except for the A San Server.

After all, aside from a few small Commonwealth servers, the rest of the region servers each have hundreds of millions of players; selecting a thousand from that massive pool shows just how valuable those thousand are.

Thus, anyone eligible for the Global Tournament, except those from the A San Server, is definitely a top‑tier celebrity.

In this situation, digging up a bit of gossip among the celebrities isn't unusual.

Besides, it's actually quite entertaining, right?

The official nickname belongs to a weakling who doesn't even have Global Tournament qualification, while the pirated nickname storms into the Global Tournament, and even among the thousand participants, they're not a weakling.

After all, they can beat Huan Jie.

And they're just a regular Arcane Mage, yet they can defeat Huan Jie, who has obtained a Hidden Class—impressive.

Round Nine!

Begin!

In the first half, Su Sheng and Lin Huan didn't have much going on.

Su Sheng, as usual, went to spectate Lu Zhe.

In the previous eight rounds, Lu Zhe also won every match!

This is the ninth round…

Su Sheng raised an eyebrow!

Lost?

In round nine, Lu Zhe lost to the opponent, who was also an Eagle Sauce player!

Su Sheng raised an eyebrow: Are there that many Eagle Sauce top players?

He glanced at the guy opposite.

A War Knight? No, that skill form isn't that of a regular knight.

A Hidden Class, nickname "Superpowered Captain"; the actual profession is unknown, will check later.

The fact that Lu Zhe lost is a bit surprising to Su Sheng, but it's understandable; it doesn't mean Lu Zhe's raw strength is that much lower.

The loss was also razor‑thin, just a single move off.

The difference lay in… an almost textbook‑stiff technical execution.

Su Sheng thought about how to erase his own "shadow" from Lu Zhe.

The match ended…

After leaving the spectator seat, Su Sheng bowed his head, pondering Lu Zhe's issue.

A short while later, Lin Huan, having finished spectating another match, looked at Su Sheng.

"A Sheng, what's up?"

Lin Huan, seeing Su Sheng deep in thought, asked.

"Xiao Zhe lost."

Su Sheng replied.

"Huh? Xiao Zhe lost?" Lin Huan was startled, then asked for details.

She was curious who could beat Lu Zhe, since Lu Zhe is now the solid second strongest player of the Yanhuang Guild.

In direct combat, the Yanhuang side can guarantee a steady win only with Su Sheng.

Even if Chen Guan and the Hidden Dragon faction face Lu Zhe, it's only a 3‑to‑7 split.

Su Sheng gave a rough summary, and Lin Huan nodded slightly; indeed, that was the case.

Lu Zhe was "too focused."

It was precisely because of being too focused that he became so completely rigid!

Moreover, Lu Zhe is a congenitally blind person; his stuff isn't that flexible, so improvisation is indeed difficult.

While Su Sheng was pondering, the system sent a "match successful" notification.

Let's finish the Global Tournament first!

Su Sheng shook his head.

Then chose to enter.

Haha! Little brother, it's you!

Su Sheng hadn't even seen the nickname on the other side when a hearty laugh rang out.

??

Su Sheng was bewildered, looking across...

An unfamiliar face.

General Da Ji?

Bangzi Nation players, nicknamed General Da Ji.

He hadn't seen him before, and it was very unfamiliar, but the name sounded vaguely familiar.

"Do we know each other?" Su Sheng raised an eyebrow.

"Haha, Mo Wen, little brother, I've checked, you're definitely one of us Bangzi Nation people, you...."

At this point, Su Sheng understood the situation, immediately applied for a mute... letting General Da Ji's mouth open and close, Su Sheng didn't hear what he said.

Damn...

So it's the Cosmic Nation's cosmic attribute kicking in, right? The entire universe is yours; you just have to seize it.

Su Sheng almost rolled his eyes...

Countdown ends!

Su Sheng ignored the chattering General Da Ji, since he couldn't hear anyway.

Besides, Su Sheng didn't want to play with him anymore.

Just eliminate it outright...

Flap Wings!

Take off...

Dragon Breath!

Su Sheng resorted to cheating; there was no other way—if it were another expert, it would be like the earlier Ke Qiu Sha Zhan Shen.

Su Sheng was interested in a bout, to gauge a little...

But... against something like this, a remote thing, Su Sheng really wasn't keen.

"WTF!"

General Da Ji, upon seeing this, couldn't help but attempt to roll and crawl away.

Facing Su Sheng in the sky, he muttered something, but Su Sheng could only see his mouth opening and closing.

Heaven knows what he was muttering...

However, Su Sheng was somewhat surprised to look at General Da Ji below.

That speed...

He was clearly wielding a sword and shield, yet he was wearing Leather Armor...

And this speed!

So fast!

Although it still couldn't match me when I activate Lion Hunt mode, it could nevertheless escape the coverage of Fireworks Dragon Breath.

That's a bit absurd...

Each time he had to adjust his angle, but in less than a second, General Da Ji broke free.

That leads to...

After 30 seconds...

When Flap Wings time ended and the mythic lion landed, General Da Ji, dragging a vial of low HP, hid far away drinking blood medicine.

He didn't even kill him?!

That's a bit unexpected, but in those thirty seconds of Flap Wings plus Dragon Breath, he didn't land many blows.

At this point, Su Sheng finally recalled why that nickname seemed familiar.

Seen before...

Year Beast Battlefield, seventh place!

Bangzi Nation's number one, no wonder...

Got some skill.

But...

Not much!

Swish~

After landing, Su Sheng barely paused, immediately launched a charge!

General Da Ji's mouth still muttered, but his hand movements were swift.

He raised his Shield, assuming a Block stance.

But Su Sheng raised an eyebrow; as the charge approached, the mythic lion beneath suddenly veered.

Then it sliced across from the side...

And Su Sheng, seated behind the mythic lion, thrust his spear from the side, completely ignoring the shield blocking ahead.
