Chapter 799: The Heavenly Courts

"A drop-and-shred lethal burst!" Boss Fang unleashed a textbook burst sequence upon landfall, only to skip away instantly like a dragonfly skimming water. The maneuver caused a certain player using the trollish sphere avatar to take both hands completely off the keyboard, staring blankly; by the time they snapped out of it, not even a phantom's shadow remained. This outcome was exceedingly delightful.

On the livestream's scrolling bullet chat:

"This is what you call a mantis hunting a ball—death on impact!"

"Hahahahaha!"

"I'm watching the opposing jungler's stream right now—he was so terrified he literally threw his VR headset aside, I'm dying here!"

"Oh? The enemy jungler is streaming too? Let me take a look..."

"..."

The bullet chat could be described as incredibly lively.

Meanwhile, treating this as an instructional jungling broadcast, Boss Fang spoke up: "Can any student among you tell me why that instant burst succeeded just now? Answer correctly and you'll receive a complimentary bag of potato chips from this shop!"

"Potato chips?!" Seated amidst a crowd of Clear Sky Sect disciples as an exchange student, Jiang Xiaoyue blinked in a daze, then hurriedly sent a bullet message to snatch her chance. "Me, me, me! I know! This must be a brand-new Kha'Zix trick from Boss Fang!"

"Incorrect. Student Xiaoyue, please take your seat."

"...How could it be wrong?!" Flaring up with indignation, Jiang Xiaoyue slumped back into her chair; her chips were gone yet again.

At this moment, a group of sharp-eyed viewers noticed something: "Did you all see that? Boss Fang's Kha'Zix is level five, while the opposing Lee Sin is only level three!"

"My god... I honestly wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't mentioned it... And that Lee Sin apparently just bought a longsword upon returning to base, whereas Boss Fang already has a Tiamat!"

"How can the disparity be this massive?" At the Jiuhua City branch, Song Qingfeng sat upon a sofa, watching the gameplay while asking in sheer astonishment.

"Do you remember the sequence when Lee Sin invaded the boss's jungle and then went to camp the top lane?" Nalan Mingxue analyzed calmly.

"The invasion accomplished absolutely nothing, wasting over ten seconds."

"The boss signaled Fiora to retreat beneath the safety of her turret, so Lee Sin wasted another thirty seconds in the top lane, coming away completely empty-handed."

"Utilizing this exact window of opportunity, Boss Fang cleared one camp of the enemy's monsters and one camp of his own. After purchasing his Tiamat, he set out and cleared yet another camp completely unscathed, reaching level five."

"Meanwhile, the enemy Lee Sin is level three and entirely starved of equipment."

"That actually seems to be exactly what happened..." Song Qingfeng remarked, struck with awe.

Just then, Nalan Mingxue noticed the avatar of a little girl bouncing up and down within her Penguin Chat interface.

Jiang Xiaoyue: "Did you figure out the answer to the boss's question?"

Evidently, the young girl was thoroughly covetous of Boss Fang's potato chip reward.

Nalan Mingxue: "Call me older sister first, Xiaoyue (smug)."

"Ah, Sister Xue'er is the most brilliant, clever, and wonderful person ever!" Jiang Xiaoyue praised with exaggerated flattery.

"Hahahahaha..." Back in the Jiuhua City lounge area, a certain young lady laughed so hard she rocked back and forth. "What a trash tier Xiaoyue, actually trying that routine on me!"

"Here, this is the standard answer."

"Ah! So that's how it works?" Jiang Xiaoyue's eyes shone with tiny stars.

Boss Fang subsequently announced the answer: "Congratulations to Student Xiaoyue for getting it right. You may now head to the counter to claim a bag of chips!"

"Next, allow me to explain this practical, mid-air instant burst combo to everyone." By this time, Boss Fang had finished clearing the monsters in the upper half of his jungle, reaching level six, and immediately began invading the enemy territory.

"Has everyone noticed? The enemy's jungle, our own botside jungle, topside jungle, and the enemy's topside jungle—by now, our square has already been drawn."

Arriving at the enemy's topside jungle, he spotted the opposing Lee Sin just finishing off the Wraiths—the location of the raptor camp in this version of League of Legends.

"When we execute our moves, please remember that we are the 'Voidreaver.' This champion possesses his own unique style of combat, and we simply need to utilize it to perfection."

No sooner had he spoken than a Void Spike shot forth, trailing a sinister, chilling glint of light.

Almost simultaneously, his wings snapped open; defying the laws of physics, he surged forward in perfect lockstep with those very spikes!

His left hand triggered the Cleave active from Tiamat, while his right hand transformed into an incredibly sharp, scything blade.

Though the three moves were initiated at slightly different moments, upon his descent, they fell in flawless unison from three distinct directions at the exact same instant.

In that split second, it felt as though Lee Sin was suffering an attack from three people simultaneously!

At the Half-City branch, Ning Bi, who was spectating the scene live, witnessed a certain player with the trollish sphere avatar instantly let out a piercing shriek: "Waaaah—!"

Flash, Flash!

This was simply too terrifying! It literally made one's scalp tingle with numbness!

When they finally recovered their senses, they discovered Lee Sin was already on the brink of death.

"The thing is... Tiamat and Taste Their Fear (Q) can actually be cast simultaneously while you are still mid-air," Boss Fang explained. "Speed, precision, plus three techniques perfectly synchronized into a single point—the moment you fly over, how can anyone block it? It's unblockable. Death upon impact!"

As an assassin-type champion, the most critical principle was to refrain from striking until success could be guaranteed with a single, decisive blow.

"So powerful..." A wave of startled gasps immediately echoed throughout the shop.

"Then when we utilize mechanical hidden weapons, could we perhaps also...?" Tang Yu's mind began to churn with possibilities. As a youth living in an era where combat techniques were being revitalized, he was clearly absorbing these combat experiences continuously.

He fell into a brief, deep contemplation. This move appeared simple, but to truly achieve its maximum efficacy, one had to master the timing, angles, and everything else to an exceptionally precise degree. After all, within the system-enhanced version of the game, various slick maneuvers like dodging and parrying were entirely possible.

The fully immersive virtual reality system version of *League of Legends* was effectively equivalent to a battle in the real world.

If all three strikes missed, an assassin would essentially be left with nothing to do but wait for death.

"This is merely the foundational combo that coordinates with the Square Jungling method. Many champions possess their own corresponding high-tier advanced techniques."

"This is still considered foundational?!" At the new East Continent branch, a group of seriously studying Clear Sky Academy disciples stared wide-eyed at the screen.

At this juncture, Lee Sin was clearly refusing to accept his misfortune. Chugging health potions to recover, he coordinated with his mid laner, Varus, to pincer forward and trap his opponent.

"My god..."

"The boss is in danger!"

"The mid laner is level six as well!"

Manipulating the Voidreaver, Boss Fang stepped once more into the brush: "Well then, we shall now begin the tutorial for the Flying Mantis."

"Oh—?!"

"Holy crap!"

"Aside from the instant burst landing, there's a Flying Mantis too?!"

"Does that mean other champions will also have some incredibly powerful, advanced techniques?!"

A crowd of people instantly watched on, their emotions swelling with intense excitement.

...

Meanwhile, at the far end of the world, beyond the skies, lay the Sea of Ten Thousand Immortals.

The so-called Sea of Ten Thousand Immortals was not a true ocean of water, but rather an unimaginably vast sea of clouds.

Here, countless celestial birds soared through the cloud sea like fish, and immortal islands stood in abundance, looking as though they floated atop the clouds. Every wondrous and unprecedented spectacle was laid bare to the eye here; this place was a literal fairyland.

Standing opposite the Pantheon located in the extreme west, it was said that immortals had resided here for generations.

Further upward lay the orthodox lineage of immortals and gods, the most revered realm within the universe—the Heavenly Divine Court.

And within this cluster of immortal islands, there existed a region where a dense aura of celestial spiritual essence converged.

Spiritual energy suffused the entire realm, to the point where even a single breath felt distinctly and utterly different from the mortal world below.

The gaze of a woman clad in blue was as cold and indifferent as ancient, piercing ice.

Opposite her sat a peculiar Daoist priest, dressed in black and white robes, his hair styled in twin hanging buns at his temples.

Before them brewed a pot of celestial tea, the flame beneath it burning with the same glazed whiteness seen in Fang Qi's earlier battle.

As the water boiled, the wisps of white steam that escaped drifted like flying clouds, radiating a thoroughly immortal charm.

Upon the teapot, however, a slender crack remained visible.

"What a pity for this fine, ten-thousand-year-old Purple Cloud Pot," the old Daoist chuckled ruefully.

"I originally thought that by beating the Divine Court of the Heavens to it, this matter would be resolved," the cold woman said. "By now, the Divine Court should be making its move."

"Tomorrow's court session at the Divine Court will reveal all, though one wonders... who will they send?"
