However, as time passed, the range for yers to move became smaller, and the two were bound to meet eventually.


    When the duel reached the 35th minute, only thest two yers were left in the duel map – Snow Leopard and A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated.


    All other yers had been eliminated.


    Under Snow Leopard’s gaze, A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated came out of a house not far away, carrying a wine gourd on his back.


    However, to everyone’s surprise, he only had the Breath of Blood buff on him and wasn’t wearing any equipment dropped in the secret realm.


    His overall status was almost the same as when he first met Snow Leopard.


    Seeing A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated in this state, the live stream chat exploded:


    “What the hell is A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated doing?!”


    “Does he know he can’t beat Snow Leopard and intends to forfeit?”


    “Or does he dare to challenge Snow Leopard, whose strength is triple that of his, with his superb skills?”


    “No way, the gap is toorge, no matter how advanced the techniques are, they cannotpensate.”<div>


    The yers were arguing non-stop.


    Only Su Yu in the Mage Tower faintly discerned a clue.


    If he remembered correctly, the wine gourd of A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated was originally yellow, but now the color of the gourd has turned dark red.


    Perhaps the answer lies in this wine gourd.


    Snow Leopard stared at A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated, “So… you didn’t kill any yers in thest half hour?”


    “No, I didn’t even touch the wild beasts,” A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated admitted with a sincere smile.


    “Then you…”


    “Actually, I’m experimenting with a new way to y,” said A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated, taking out the red nt that they ate the second time they met from his backpack and shaking it in front of Snow Leopard.


    “Do you know what this nt is? Do you know how I got it from the market owner when I was broke?”


    Snow Leopard:


    He faintly felt as if he had missed something.


    A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated squeezed out the juice of the red nt forcefully, then poured the juice into the wine gourd.


    As the red juice was poured in, the gourd suddenly burst into a strange red light.


    “Actually, this town is not just a scene. There are many hidden elements to be found,” A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated said with a slow smile.


    “When I first started asking the stall owners at the vegetable market, I noticed this: yers canmunicate with the NPCs here, triggering some exclusive hidden quests. Completing the quests can bring extraordinary rewards to the yers! The rewards can even be better than the stackyer buffs you get from killing yers!”


    “So, you have beenpleting quests this time!” Snow Leopard suddenly realized.


    He had never expected this map to have ‘hidden quests’. And indeed, he had overlooked it.


    “Correct!” A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated took the wine gourd and pointed the mouth towards Snow Leopard. “Now, let me show you the reward from the hidden quest. Here you go!”<div>


    From the gourd’s mouth, he sprayed a huge beam of fiery red light, which enveloped Snow Leopard like a curtain.


    Snow Leopard had no chance to resist or fight back. His figure shrank continuously in the light, and was eventually sucked uncontrobly into the gourd.


    Over a million viewers were now watching Snow Leopard’s live stream. Seeing this scene made the chat explode:


    “Oh no, he’s been sucked in!”<div>


    “Karen, is that you?”


    “What kind of overpowered item is this? Can people even y like this?”


    “Who knew you couldplete hidden quests on fantasy maps ‘indirectly’? We’ve learned something new!”


    “Poor Snow Leopard, such a wrongful loss!”


    After taking Snow Leopard, A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated weighed the gourd, marveling, “This upgraded gourd is really powerful! The only regret is that it can’t be taken to the next round…. Wait, something is wrong. Why isn’t there a reward settlement?”


    A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated was taken aback.


    In the first round, he immediately received a game notice about the quest settlement as soon he killed thest yer. Why didn’t he receive it this time?


    A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated looked at the wine gourd in his hand.


    Was it possible that the gourd needed some time to digest Snow Leopard once it sucked him in? Could itpletely finish him off?


    He wasn’t going to release some bug to pierce the gourd like the snake spirit in the Cbash brothers, was he?


    Just as he was lost in thought, a golden leopard suddenly appeared behind him, and its sharp ws mercilessly attacked his back.


    It was Snow Leopard!


    “Damn it!” A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated attempted to dodge, but failed.<div>


    The w fiercely scraped across the location of his heart – his health immediately dropped by a third.


    It turned out that what had been taken away by his gourd was not Snow Leopard but Snow Leopard’s avatar!


    Snow Leopard’s Purple Ne [Annalorica’s Dream] had an additional skill: Dream Avatar.


    The Dream Avatar could summon a clone that looks exactly like the original and stayed in stealth mode.


    The avatar could not attack, but it could switch positions with the original.


    Before the wine gourd had locked onto him, Snow Leopard had used his ne to switch positions with his avatar.


    The avatar was sucked away by the wine gourd, while his original body remained intact and well.


    He immediately sneaked behind A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated, and his sharp wsshed out at his heart!


    A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated was caught off guard and severely injured.


    The gourd had a cooldown of 30 seconds and could not be used again at the moment.


    In desperation, he used the [Beiming Kung Fu] of the Wandering Sect coupled with the [Golden Bell Shield] of the Shaolin Sect added with the [Taiji Swordsmanship] of the Wudang Sect, hoping to slow the clock.


    However, the gap between him and Snow Leopard was too vast, beyond the point of salvation by advanced martial arts.


    In less than ten seconds, A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated was left with only 5% of his health, making it clear that he couldn’t hold on until he could use the gourd again.<div>


    Helplessly, he jumped back and sped his fist towards Snow Leopard, “Well yed, I have been defeated.”


    With that, he pointed a finger at the chest’s Shenque acupoint, turned into white light and disappeared on the spot.


    Seeing Snow Leopard’s final victory, the live chat immediately flooded with “666” while some people even sent hundreds of rockets in moments.


    After all, with the decline of offline world currencies, people didn’t feel the pain of spending money.


    After A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated transformed into white light and disappeared, Snow Leopard couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.


    Fortunately, his ne’s bonus skill saved his life, or he could have most likely lost this match.


    He really shouldn’t underestimate the other top yers!


    “Congrattions on eliminating allpetitors and gaining ess to the next round. Countdown to the next round begins: 23:18.”


    “Battle settlement in progress…”


    “Your performance in this round of battle is rated as [S], rewards obtained: Pet Egg [Thunder Lizard’s Egg (Epic)] X1, World Prestige 2 points, spiritual energy coin 10000.”


    With the game’s prompt sound, Snow Leopard gradually disappeared on the streets of this ancient town and returned to Goldfinch square.
