MMORPG: Martial Gamer

A flash of light passed, and Yang Nuo was transported to the arena.

At the same time, the competitors from the Pantheon appeared opposite Yang Nuo.

"Yo!"

Seeing Yang Nuo's opponent, the members of the Crowd of Misfits Team couldn't help but let out a series of boos.

Yang Nuo's opponent was, surprisingly, also a female player.

In <<Rebirth>>, there are no unattractive female characters, and the equipment is designed very humanely, aligning well with player aesthetics.

The girl facing Yang Nuo was not only tall but also dressed in a full set of white attire, with a high ponytail behind her head, looking capable and exuding a strong presence.

Especially with her holding a shield in one hand and a spear in the other, she radiated a wild beauty.

"I told you to let me go... what a pity." Ming Du glanced at Yang Nuo's opponent with a look of regret.

"What's the use of letting you go?" Vainglory couldn't help but mock, "Do you dare to get close?"

"Why wouldn't I dare? It's just death. But you... do you even know what a woman is, little brat? Do you know where to touch?" Ming Du retorted with disdain.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Seeing Ming Du and Vainglory getting more outrageous, Fearless frowned and said, "This is a female tiger; you two are courting death."

"What are we afraid of? We've seen worse!"

Ming Du and Vainglory, both reckless, turned to glance at Ling Longmeng, whose face darkened as she began loading her crossbow.

"This must be Athena."

After all, Spring Halo was well-informed and came over to ask.

"Correct! This woman is Athena!" Fearless nodded.

At this moment, the host began introducing the competitors, and sure enough, Yang Nuo's opponent was the legendary Athena.

"Who is Athena?" This guy Wang Yu never missed a chance to kill the mood...

However, this time it wasn't just Wang Yu; even Crotch Lord and the others appeared curious.

"You've heard of Kuyan, right?" Fearless raised an eyebrow at Wang Yu and then turned to ask the others.

"I haven't... who is that?"

Wang Yu still looked confused; to him, the big names in the circle were no different from random folks, and those who didn't know would assume he was just showing off.

"What the hell! So it's Kuyan!"

Upon hearing Fearless's words, Crotch Lord jumped up in surprise, "The world's best Guardian?"

"That's right!" Fearless replied, "That's her. Athena is the codename in the Pantheon; she changed her name after joining last year."

"No wonder, no wonder." Crotch Lord sighed, "I thought she had retired."

"Is this woman really that powerful?" Ling Longmeng asked with an unsatisfied expression.

"Not just powerful!" Crotch Lord said with admiration, "She's our faith in Guardians!"

Although many female players don't want to admit it, generally speaking, there's a noticeable gap between the strength of female and male players, so rankings between them are typically separated.

For instance, titles like 'First Female Monk' or 'First Female Warrior' indicate that their ranking is limited to female players.

Athena is different; her title is the world's best Guardian! It doesn't distinguish between genders; she is undoubtedly No. 1.

The Guardian profession is the most important role in any game, and for a female player to fight her way through so many male experts and earn the title of the world's best is a testament to her strength.

In all RPGs, Kuyan is the absolute faith of Guardians, and Crotch Lord, as a Guardian, is no exception.

"Tch!"

Ling Longmeng, feeling displeased, pouted and shouted, "Na Na, take her down!"

"???"

Hearing Ling Longmeng's voice, Crotch Lord looked confused, "What's wrong with her? Yelling here won't reach the stage."

"Old Crotch." Fearless patted Crotch Lord's shoulder earnestly, "You really fit the current lineup... a solid iron straight man."

"My name is Crotch Lord, not Old Crotch!" Crotch Lord glared.

"Got it, Old Crotch..." Fearless said.

...

Women, especially beautiful ones, often instinctively react negatively when they see someone prettier than themselves.

In the arena, Yang Nuo, looking at the beautiful girl opposite her, maintained a blank expression.

As the match began, Yang Nuo raised her crossbow and unleashed a rapid fire towards Athena.

Unfortunately, the Guardian class counters all agility-based characters...

Whether it's assassins or archers, they struggle against Guardians. Although Guardians can't catch up to them, it's incredibly difficult for these agile characters to land a hit on a Guardian.

Facing the incoming arrows, Athena slightly lifted her shield with her left hand, positioning it in front of her.

"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!"

A series of clashing sounds rang out as Yang Nuo's arrows were all blocked and fell to the ground.

However, Yang Nuo didn't expect those arrows to harm her opponent. Just as Athena raised her shield to defend, Yang Nuo shifted and charged towards Athena.

Yang Nuo was a typical non-mainstream archer; while other archers would try to create distance from their opponents, she always sought to engage in close combat.

Fortunately, after several matches, Athena had also gotten used to Yang Nuo's style; otherwise, even a skilled player like her could have been caught off guard.

Yang Nuo moved quickly, and in an instant, she was in front of Athena.

Athena swung her shield and bent down to deliver a shield strike aimed at Yang Nuo.

Unfazed, Yang Nuo executed a dodge; Athena only saw a blur as Yang Nuo appeared behind her.

Yang Nuo had quite the technique for dealing with Guardians.

After all, Guardians are relatively clumsy, and their turning speed is slow. While they cannot be harmed from the front, avoiding attacks from behind is also quite tricky...

Yang Nuo raised her crossbow, aiming for the back of Athena's head, a white light gathering at the bow.

Shock Arrow!

This is the archer's main control skill, capable of knocking back and stunning the target.

But unexpectedly, at that moment, Athena didn't even turn around; she swung her spear backward with her right hand, aiming to strike Yang Nuo's head.

Having trained for many years, although Yang Nuo wasn't as sensitive to killing intent as Wang Yu, her reaction speed was no slouch.

Just as Athena's spear was about to hit Yang Nuo's head, she leaned back and performed a backflip, successfully dodging the attack.

Seeing this, Athena turned around during Yang Nuo's evasive maneuver.

Before Yang Nuo could steady herself, Athena's spear shot forward without any hesitation, flying straight at Yang Nuo's face.

Well, although women's fights aren't as blood-pumping as men's, every strike aimed at the face is genuinely nerve-wracking; one has to wonder how deep the grudge is.

Seeing Athena's spear almost pierce her head, Yang Nuo twisted her feet and contorted her body into a strange arc, evading Athena's flying spear.

At this moment, Athena smiled slightly and made a pulling gesture with her right hand towards the air.

"Clang!"

Suddenly, Yang Nuo heard the sound of iron chains.
