Baidi, Bai Hanpi...originally named Jin Huanying.
As the absolute core of South Korea's White Sword Team, Baidi's glory in the history of Conflict is definitely no less than Zhao Mingwei of the Reign Team, and his world fame is even higher than Zhao Mingwei.
After he defeated Zhao Mingwei's Junlin Tianxia in the last world championship, he was even dubbed the God of Strife.
But despite such a high-class name, in live broadcasts and private fan interactions, he sounds emotionally insensitive... idiot.
That’s right, stupid.
Baidi's live broadcast is conducted jointly on Raccoon Live and another world-class live broadcast website. His superb skills and extremely reserved personality have also won him some fans in China.
But Chinese fans prefer to call him Baihanpi rather than Baidi.
Because his live broadcast effects and jokes are so many, the most jokes are the various silly and dirty words that Baidi said during the live broadcast because of his emotional dullness.
But... no matter how silly he is, Baidi's skills and professionalism are definitely world-class.
He obtained the qualification to test for the Holy Spirit from Coke Mania, along with two other players from the White Sword Team.
The condition offered by Coke Mania was to serve in the game as a member of the Coke Mania guild, to which Bai Di agreed. At least Coke Mania did not offer a contract of sale like Leaping Nuclear.
After the disastrous defeat to Coke Mania in the Dissidia World Championship, Baidi gradually began to get in touch with the game Holy Spirit.
Today is the twenty-first day of his tour of the Holy Spirit, which lasts seventy-four hours.
The White Sword Team still treats Holy Spirit as an unrelated game, so Bai Di can only use his spare time to level up in the Holy Spirit world, and he can play Holy Spirit for less than two hours a day.
At first, Baidi also thought that the Holy Spirit was an irrelevant game, but he was still attracted to the game of the Holy Spirit.
It’s not that he felt that the Holy Spirit game had any effect on his body, but... the game was simply too interesting.
Baidi is a player with very discerning tastes...like other players who got the Holy Spirit activation code, he immersed himself in this fantasy world between reality and virtuality.
Level up every day, run around the city to trigger various hidden tasks, and chat with Freya when you get tired of playing.
A disease called 'Holy Spirit Addiction' began to spread in his body.
But Baidi still controlled the time he spent playing Holy Spirit very well, because he knew that he was a professional player of Dissension.
Recently, the White Sword team gave all players a long vacation, so Bai Di had the opportunity to play a game or two in the Holy Spirit late at night.
His level has now reached level 45. The current maximum level of the Holy Spirit is level 60, and online games generally start when you reach the maximum level.
Therefore, Baidi’s current account is just a younger brother’s account in the eyes of a senior Holy Spirit player.
But now he was standing in front of Thorne using this brother account, and his two teammates were standing at the edge of the ring watching.
Bai Di had heard about Thorne's existence a long time ago from many professional players in China. The discussion about Thorne on the foreign Internet was very heated some time ago, but the heat has gradually subsided recently.
Today, Baidi finally stood in front of this terrifying humanoid AI called Beta Dog as a Holy Spirit player.
"You haven't cultivated the power of your Holy Spirit to the average level yet, right?" Thorne, holding the wooden sword, saw at a glance that Baidi had not yet reached the maximum level. Not only that, Baidi was wearing only blue equipment and only three pieces of purple equipment, and he didn't have any orange equipment or special equipment.
Bai Di was slightly startled when he saw the dialog box popping up above Thorne's head, but he quickly adapted to it. He had experienced enough of the high intelligence of the Holy Spirit NPCs in these twenty-one days.
This is also where the Holy Spirit is fun.
"Try it." Baidi responded to Thorne.
"That would be a terrible loss." Thorne kindly reminded... this new challenger whom he had never seen before.
Baidi did not respond to Thorne's words. Now Baidi has entered a state of high concentration and preparation for war.
Of course he knew he would lose. Bai Di didn't think that this level 45 trumpet could defeat Thorn, a level 65 elite monster. Just looking at the data panel, he would be crushed by Thorn.
He wondered how long he could hold out against Thorne. Three minutes? Five minutes
Twenty-one days had allowed Bai Di to fully master the Holy Spirit's combat system, which was easy to learn but difficult to master. He was a gaming genius and was a genius no matter what game he played.
The moment the battle began, Baidi's fingertips instantly stroked the sword in his hand, and a hot flame instantly burned on the sword.
Flame Attachment! Wave Marking!
The profession in the game he played was a magic swordsman.
This profession's main focus is to attach magic to the long sword... It is a profession that is most advantageous at close to medium distances.
He played a similar profession in Dissension!
The moment Bai Di used the skill of flame attachment, Thorne had already rushed towards him.
I can see it! Baidi captured the trajectory of Thorn's movements. He thought that Thorn's difficulty was due to his fast movement speed, and the player could not see his movement path at all.
But... Baidi could see Thorne rushing towards him. Not only could he see Thorne's movements, he also saw the moment Thorne drew his sword!
Seeing it means... he can't stop it!
Baidi widened his eyes, and when Thorne's stick stabbed out, Baidi found that it was too late to stop it!
"break…"
Thorne uttered the simplest word, and the wooden stick pierced Baidi's vital point, which was the center of his eyebrows.
Bai Di's health points were instantly emptied by half, and this attack also produced a huge impact force that made his body lose balance.
But Baidi took advantage of the loss of balance... grasped the sword in both hands and slashed out in an instant.
Explosive flame waves...Flame dance!
The flames burned in a circle around Baidi. Thorne's eyes changed, but he still jumped back lightly and easily avoided Baidi's counterattack.
Chance!
A powerful wave force gathered in Baidi's hands, and the wave mark on his head was sealed into the long sword by Baidi and then released.
Ghost seal beads!
The spiral wave force formed a sphere and pounced on Thorne, but... Thorne's figure had appeared beside Baidi without anyone noticing.
Bai Di reacted quickly and tried to block the opponent's attack with the hilt of his sword, but Thorne spoke as he swung his sword.
"You rely too much on your sword," Thorn said.
"!"
Bai Di froze in place at this moment, but this also meant the end of his life. He was hit again in the center of his eyebrows by Thorne's sword, and the two hit the same place.
The huge force pushed Baidi out of the ring.
As he lay on the ground outside the ring, he looked at Thorne, who was standing on the ring and using the wooden stick in his hand to support his shoulders.
"You look different from the other newcomers. I welcome you to challenge me anytime," Thorne said.
Baidi did not respond. A ranking list popped up beside Thorne. This was a ranking list that only existed in Thorne's inner world arena.
The other world arena rankings record who can defeat the defender the fastest. The shorter the time, the stronger.
But this ranking records who can last the longest under Thorne!
Currently the highest ranked is Happy Game, with a time of twenty-three minutes and seven seconds, and the second is Caramel, with a time of thirteen minutes and thirty-one seconds!
Baidi did not make the list, but the time he lasted was... seven seconds.
But what really concerned Bai Di was what Thorne said, and the feeling that he had to break through his own limits when fighting with Thorne.
When Bai Di stood up hurriedly and wanted to continue the challenge... Lu Wei, who was fighting against the Titan, stepped onto the stage before him.
"Get out of the way, Xiaobai Hanhan. It's my turn to exchange a few more moves with this old man." Lu Wei said as she walked straight onto the ring.
But when Thorne saw Lu Wei, his expression became somewhat resistant.
"You crazy girl again. Has no one told you that there is no honor in using such weapons?" Thorne pointed at a pile of high explosives hanging on Lu Wei's waist.
"This is the third time you've insulted my best friend! Today I have to show you how powerful they are!"
Under Lu Wei's distorted shouts, the entire ring was temporarily covered by the sound of explosions, but this explosion did not affect the arrival of other challengers.
When Bai Di wanted to continue the challenge with the challenge ticket, he found that the team that originally had only three people in line suddenly had thirty-seven more people queuing in front, and all of these thirty-seven people were acquaintances.
These twenty-seven people who suddenly appeared were all professional players from China.
"Captain, let's go level up."
The other two players of the White Sword Team were somewhat unwilling to see their captain being defeated so directly, and seemed to attribute the reason for the defeat to the equipment and level.
"You guys go level up, I want to play a few more games." Bai Di looked at the palm of his hand. He knew that he should wait until he reached the maximum level before coming to challenge Thorne. This way, at least he would be able to withstand more beatings.
The increase in attribute values can also allow him to last longer under Thorne, but Bai Di wants to find Thorne to ask him what he meant by his previous words!
Or... Thorne discovered some of his mistakes. Bai Di felt very uncomfortable, as if he had taken a step forward but had to pull it back for some reason.
"But captain, how long will this queue end?" asked two members of the White Sword Team.
"Wait... wait." Bai Di couldn't think of any good way. He was not familiar with these Chinese players, so he could only silently queue up and wait to challenge Thorne.
The battle between Lu Wei and Thorne lasted only fifteen seconds. Thorne was afraid of this madman who threw bombs indiscriminately, so he used all his strongest strength and the most efficient way to kill Lu Wei.
After that, Thorne began to challenge other professional players in China. In just one hour, all the 39 professional players who lined up to challenge Thorne, including Bai Di, took turns to fight him.
The second time, Bai Di lasted fifteen seconds under Thorn. Thorn also intended to guide Bai Di during the battle. Thorn would do the same to other holy spirits he liked. Basically, the other thirty-eight contestants had been instructed by Thorn.
The name Teacher Thorne had long been circulated in the Holy Spirit Forum.
Baidi sat there and waited for nearly an hour. Caramel, who was in front of him, came on stage, and the next one was Baidi. He was even impatient and started tapping the hilt of the sword with his fingertips.
But after Caramel walked to the ring, he suddenly thrust his Moonlight Sword into the ring and sat down.
"Are you finally going to give up?" Thorne asked.
"You're too weak. I'll fight you again when you're fully recovered." Caramel said to Thorne, who was now covered in blood.
Until now, Thorne has been wearing rags with little defensive power and a long sword. The disadvantage of his equipment means that no matter how unrivaled Thorne's swordsmanship is, he will eventually be injured in the game with the Holy Spirit.
The team that came to challenge Thorne today are all China's top professional players, including the leaders of the Titan Team and the White Sword Team.
Thorne certainly had to fight harder than ever.
In fact, Caramel wanted to ask Thorne to change into the same equipment as himself before fighting, but Thorne's damage with the wooden stick is now higher than his damage with the moonlight sword, so Caramel can only ask Thorne to recover to his peak state before fighting him!
That way his win would be meaningful.
But when Caramel thought so, the group of players who were still waiting in line to fight with Thorne became anxious.
"Caramel... caramel..." Bai Di was so anxious that he even started speaking Chinese. He even forgot that the game Holy Spirit comes with real-time translation.
But Lu Wei from the Titan Team who was standing behind Bai Di was even more anxious. She slammed her hands on the ring.
"Brother Coke! Once you drain the health of this old monster, a new one with full health will appear! Please be quick!" Lu Wei kept using both hands to touch the edge of the ring.
That’s right. If we kill Thorne who has about 7,000 HP left, then the system will spawn a new Thorne, right
But Caramel only recognized this Thorne! He was sure that this Thorne was the guy who had tortured him from the beginning to the end since he was pushed out of the inner world!
Even if the system spawns a new Thorne, Caramel has no interest in it.
"No." Caramel responded.
"Why is this not okay?" Lu Wei felt that this was a very normal gaming mindset!
"Titan team, our captain says no, so it's no. Can't you just wait a while?" The Coke-crazy players were also a little dissatisfied.
"No! Brother Coke, can you please not fight and let me go up? I'll kill him for another thousand HP, and then a new one will appear in a few games!" Lu Wei asked again.
"No." Caramel continued to respond firmly.
"You can't do this. Then I will play with the players on your team. As long as I beat your players, you can let me play!" The little genius Lu Wei came up with a great idea.
"What does this have to do with letting Thorne rest?" Caramel began to think.
"It does matter! Doesn't it make sense that the strongest among us can fight Thorne? So, do you dare to give it a try, Coke fanatic?"
Lu Wei was not afraid of anything and went straight into a provocative state. Of course, the Coke-crazy contestants couldn't stand this provocation and directly put up flags on the spot to indicate that they accepted Lu Wei's challenge.
"Can...can you count me in?" Bai Di thought this seemed to be the method.
"Captain, you haven't reached the maximum level yet!" the player from the Baidi team reminded again.
"fine."
Lu Wei's suggestion seemed to be agreed by other professional players. So while Caramel was waiting for Thorne to rest in Fanhua Square, the top players from the eight major teams of China plus the Titan Team and the White Emperor Team held a temporary online competition.
"The reward for the champion is to be able to beat Thorne seven times in a row! No one is allowed to deny it!" Lu Wei said.
"Fuck! There are so many great people! Can we start a live broadcast?"
Passersby Holy Spirits also gathered around, and gradually, on the Raccoon Live Network and other well-known foreign live broadcast networks, some live broadcast titles such as "The Battle for the Qualification to Beat Thorne", "True Holy Spirit All-Star League", and "Everyone Hurry Up to Go Online, S10 Competition Has Started!" began to appear one after another.
As for the lineup of players participating in the competition, it is so luxurious that it can be said to be the Dispute All-Star League!
While Jiang Qiao was still busy with the Road to Ascension dungeon, theoretically, the first Holy Spirit Professional League might have already started in the Flower Square, and the reward for the champion was to be able to beat Thorne seven times in a row!
