Chapter 1283: The Coach Enters The Field

When Lu Li saw Glory Capital’s next player, he was dumbfounded.

Master Huang!

Why was this old guy suddenly on stage? Lu Li had no recollection of Master Huang’s plan to make a comeback in his memory of his previous life.

Although there were many new players that registered for the tournaments every year, it had been at least two years since Master Huang had made an appearnce. His main job now was to be an instructor at Glory Capital’s training camps.

Lu Li bowed solemnly and showed the proper respect on stage.

“My life belongs to myself, and I make all my decisions willingly and freely. I have never been controlled by anyone; not even gods can do so! I lower my head to others out of respect and admiration, but never out of subservience!”

In any case, Master Huang was someone Lu Li greatly respected.

Master Huang was not one of the most powerful players in the gaming circle as he had never become a God of any profession. He wasn’t even the best instructor or coach in the gaming circle, but he was the most respected senior in the gaming circle.

Unlike the other things in these games that everyone had a different opinion on, Master Huang was universally respected.

He believed that only the things that were shared could be improved to their greatest potential.

Therefore, he had produced a lot of analytical and educational videos. In his previous life, Lu Li was an avid consumer of his theory. Even after rebirth, he would often study the books and videos produced by Master Huang.

Because he didn’t have an instructor of his own, he had to teach all this to himself.

The people who had come out from the training camp couldn’t learn much from this material, but those who hadn’t were eager to learn about the training methods and theories from the Master himself.

“Master Huang, you are a teacher to me. I hope to learn a lot from you,” Lu Li said seriously.

“I was itching for something to do, so I impulsively got up here. I hope you won’t treat this fight differently because of that. Fight normally and don’t pull any punches just because I’m older. This might be my last match as I’ll announce my retirement after this,” Master Huang responded.

“I will go all out then,” Lu Li nodded before disappearing.

Master Huang lifted up his two big axes and held one behind him. This was the standard posture of a Berserker against a Thief, as they would be able to attack quickly once the Thief had been found. It also minimized the risk of the Thief hitting them with a crowd-control skill like Cheap Shot.

Lu Li moved very carefully and continually tested the scope of Master Huang’s perception.

Of course, he also couldn’t rule out the possibility that Master Huang was messing with him. This veteran was very experienced in strategy rather than pure technique, so Lu Li had to be more cautious.

Lu Li was very talented in the game. There was no doubt about this, otherwise, he wouldn’t have tried playing it again after rebirth. He had joined the game late, but still become a somewhat famous expert. But now that this PVP technique had been combined with the theories he had learned in his previous life, he had reached new peaks.

His PVP mental strength had always been solid, but he wasn’t as ruthless as Fat Monkey.

However, he was better at finding and seizing opportunities. This was an acquired skill that he had honed while growing up in a harsh environment and was one of Lu Li’s formative traits.

“There is no doubt that Master Huang is not just jumping in here to bully one of his juniors for no reason. He is able to hold Lu Li back to a certain extent, because there are no flaws in his defence. This means Lu Li is having a hard time finding opportunities,” Dark Wind explained the situation to anyone who didn’t understand it.

“It’s a bit difficult for Lu Li to fight this match, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be a fight,” Four Seas

Dragon responded.

Just as he finished speaking, Lu Li had already moved in.

Cheap Shot!

Lu Li’s Felstriker went straight into the back of Master Huang’s head at lightning speed. Although he knew that this attack was likely going to have no effect, he still concentrated with all his strength focused in his right hand. As long as he attacked Master Huang, he would be able to stun him.

Master Huang stood still. The axe in his right hand had only moved slightly and Lu Li’s dagger made direct contact with it.

There was no way that the System would say that this was a successful Cheap Shot. Lu Li had only caused minor damage to Master Huang.

Just when everyone thought Master Huang was going to launch his counterattack, Lu Li slipped away. Master Huang only needed to use his Charge to catch up, but it only hit one of Lu Li’s afterimages.

When he stopped to look, Lu Li had once again disappeared into the shadows.

The first round of the fight could basically be considered a test. There was no loss of HP and no use of any particularly important skills. It seemed like they were evenly matched.

After Lu Li had run away, Master Huang wasn’t angry. He was calm and collected. His position, posture

and even facial expression hadn’t changed. He was completely focused on finding Lu Li.

Contrary to what you would expect, Lu Li wasn’t worried either. However, this calmness wasn’t much help to him.

He didn’t like taking a passive approach to fights, and he didn’t feel like he needed to take a passive approach with this veteran.

“Hey, what is Lu Li doing?” Dark Wind asked with a sigh.

“It seems a bit unreasonable to use this kind of attack, but I think Master Huang will be able to deal with it.”

Even Four Seas Dragon couldn’t understand what Lu Li was trying to do, let alone the members of the audience.

Lu Li had used his shoe’s special effect to blink behind Master Huang to cast Cheap Shot. This blink skill was successful but Master Huang reacted quickly to lift the crowd-control and cast Trample in the area around him.

The reversal of this attack was definitely not a good thing for Lu Li.

This was why everyone thought that Lu Li’s attack was a bit unreasonable, as it brought about this own destruction.

However, Lu Li certainly wouldn’t die from this attack alone. He used his badge to lift the crowd-control and once against slipped into the shadows.

The two commentators didn’t know how to explain this. It seemed like Lu Li was constantly provoking him, but Master Huang would always calmly respond to his attacks before Lu Li would escape. The two sides did this back and forth a few times, but not much HP was lost. There was just an exchange of special effects and skills.

At this rate, they would get to a point where they would use up all their crowd-control skills. Then, they would have to attack each other with their regular attacks.

But as a Leather clad Thief, how could he win that fight against a Warrior?
