I'm bombarding the Supernatural World with my firearms-Chapter 435 - 359: As long as you can win, who cares how you do it._4

But...nobody cared.

...

Chen Miao, who had just returned to his seat in the audience, couldn’t help but laugh at Bucky’s reaction. He had initially thought that his early serve might be ruled as a foul, requiring a do-over or something, yet to his surprise, it was declared valid right away.

Even he didn’t expect that.

And Bucky’s expression, going from heaven to hell, was quite entertaining indeed.

"So it seems, does this mean that this S-class secret realm actually doesn’t care if players cheat?"

"No."

Ke Gou, who had been silent up to that point, suddenly shook his head and said, "That’s not right, we can’t say the S-class secret realm doesn’t care if players cheat. Rather, it sees cheating as a player’s means of strength."

"Or you could say the secret realm allows players to cheat, but it must be the kind that goes undetected."

"For instance, in the fifth round, if you, Miao, used force to take sequence sphere number 1 from Bucky’s hands, you would probably have been penalized for breaking the rules, as it goes against the spirit of the competition."

"But if you had used some other method, like pulling a switcheroo, that would likely be fine."

"Got it."

Chen Miao nodded, looking to the screen where the panel had popped up again, he turned his head to Ke Gou, "It’s our turn to choose the next category. There’s the Wisdom Category available again, want to give it a try and play?"

"Nah, let’s not..."

Ke Gou shook his head with a bitter expression, "My half-baked skills aren’t really up to par for such a big stage, and it seems the Firefly Civilization isn’t too keen on choosing the Wisdom Category either."

"There are two possibilities."

"Either they have no confidence at all, or they have utmost confidence."

"This is only the sixth category, so there’s no rush. We can hold off on it and see what the other categories are like."

"Alright, I’ll follow your lead."

Chen Miao didn’t press Ke Gou to go up and show off his skills but instead looked towards another category. Soon enough, a panel sprang up before all the players.

’Ding, the newly-promoted D-class Blue Star Civilization is given priority to select the sixth round competition category.’

’1: Wisdom Category.’

’2: Speed Category.’

’3: Infrastructure Category.’

’4: Team Category.’

’Ding, the newly-promoted D-class Blue Star Civilization has chosen category number 4, Team Category. The selection of the specific team competition event will now commence.’

’Selecting event...’

’The chosen event is, Team Cooperation.’

’Event Name’: Team Cooperation.

’Event Number’: 6.

’Event Details’:

Each civilization will send out 5 players, making a total of 10 players. They will compete in a team deathmatch in the central plaza arena. This battle will waive the secret realm’s absolute rule of no death, with only the complete demise of one civilization’s players allowing the others to claim victory.

A single chopstick is easily broken, ten chopsticks are not so easily broken.

No matter how strong an individual is, they cannot stand alone. Only by combining everyone’s strength can one unleash even greater power.

Trust.

Having the trust to turn your back to your teammates is what will allow you to overcome difficulties together.

In this event, the winning civilization will gain 10 points, whereas the losing civilization will lose 10 points.

"Hey."

Upon seeing the panel, Chen Miao suddenly broke into a smile. He had thought it would be some kind of team cooperation game, such as a relay race, or the kind where the legs of five people are tied together with a rope and then they start running.

It was that sort of team-building game you usually see.

Unexpectedly, it was something like this.

A team combat event.

If you had said it was combat-related earlier, he would have chosen it right away, without giving a second thought to other categories.

"I’ll go alone."

Chen Miao didn’t dawdle; he stood up and straightened his clothes: "No need for you guys to come with me, it will only take a few bursts of Kung Fu, and bringing so many people is unnecessary."

...

Meanwhile, the Firefly Civilization’s complexion was turning ugly.

If it were just a dungeon about comparing combat powers, that would be fine, at most you’d be defeated by someone more skilled, but a team life-and-death battle wasn’t just a simple matter of losing to someone more skilled, it meant directly risking your life.

"You."

The leader of the Firefly Civilization looked solemnly at Bucky, who was standing aside wearing a duckbill cap: "Do you have the confidence to go and kill Chen Miao?"

"Heh."

Bucky let out a dry laugh and took a step backwards, blending into the crowd. Taunting Chen Miao might be fine, but a fight to the death? Forget it, that guy was a bit scary.

It was said that guy had a whole 14 billion Combat Power.

Even the strongest among their civilization only had a Combat Power of 9.9 billion.

10 billion Combat Power was a complete watershed; crossing that threshold, overall combat effectiveness would rise to a new level. If their civilization’s strongest couldn’t even match Chen Miao, how could they possibly kill him?

And at that moment—

A system notification rang in the ears of Firefly Civilization players.

"The Blue Star Civilization has declared forfeiture for 4 members in this round’s event with only one player, Chen Miao, opting to participate. Please arrange your participants promptly, Firefly Civilization."

"..."

"What should we do?"

A middle-aged man nearby tentatively hesitated: "Chen Miao’s being so arrogant to enter the field alone? If that’s the case, can’t we just dispatch our civilization’s five strongest people and simply kill Chen Miao?"

"Sigh."

After a while, the leader of the Firefly Civilization let out a long sigh. Although he knew that sending their five strongest would almost certainly kill Chen Miao, after all, he only had 14 billion Combat Power. Enjoy exclusive content from novelbuddy

Combined, their civilization’s five strongest people had more than 14 billion Combat Power.

But... the price was too great.

If they lost and those five died in the arena, it would be a devastating blow to the Firefly Civilization, a loss they simply couldn’t afford. Even if they won, the victory wouldn’t be worth the desperate gamble.

"Let’s forfeit, we’ll concede this round to them."

Someone in the crowd spoke anxiously: "But if we forfeit, Blue Star will win by default, getting 44 points. We only have a total of 10 points, and with a 10-point deduction, our score will be zero!"

"That’s a 44-point difference!"

"What else can we do if we don’t forfeit?"

The leader of the Firefly Civilization responded irritably to that person: "If you don’t want to forfeit, then you go and fight? A 44-point difference is a 44-point difference, after all, it’s not as if every subsequent event will be combat-related. If it is, then we’ll accept it, it’s unavoidable when the skill isn’t there."

"We still have one more trick up our sleeve."

"There are plenty more events, no need to rush, we can turn the tables later."
