Chapter 1765: Inner Conflict
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
The Quarterfinalists were expected . After all, it was unlikely for another Ruling Sword to appear .
Even if money were poured into a new club, it still wouldn’t be another Ruling Sword .
Glory Capital, Ruling Sword, Blood Red War Flag, Drizzle Court, Peerless City, Wings of Dawn, Gale Legion and Gods of Dusk – these were the 8 clubs in the Quarterfinals .
The most unfortunate club was Seventh Heaven . In the Top 16, they were met with Glory Capital .
Grand Hegemony could not escape the carnage either . Blood Red War Flag completely destroyed them .
The rebuilt Gangnam Royals no longer had the star power that they had before and were eliminated by Gods of Dusk . Wood Fearing managed to win three consecutive times again, eliminating Gangnam Royals while doing so . Gods of Dusk was seemingly creating legend after legend just by having this one veteran that kept them in relevancy .
Blue Universe was met with Peerless City . Both clubs had once been under Drizzle Court . Although both had the same origins, there were still undoubtably strength differences . Blue Universe was completely destroyed by Peerless City .
Drizzle Court wasn’t too lucky this time . They were met with Azure Guard, which was quite a powerful club and were nearly eliminated by them . Fortunately, in the Group Battles, Green Flag Wine and Deadly Golden Underpants performed superbly and managed to turn the tables by killing three opponents together .
Gale Legion eliminated Purple Lunar Paradise while Wings of Dawn eliminated Majin Temple and Ruling Sword eliminated Stellar Union . The Top 16 battles were still quite exciting .
From a class-focused perspective, there were three classes that seemed to have an advantage over others . The first one was obviously the Mage class . No other class could compare to the burst damage and crowd-control abilities that Mages had . Second was the Berserker class . Berserkers were deadly in one on one situations and usually overpowered their opponents fighting face-on . As such, they were very popular with teenagers and young people . Third was the Thief class . It didn’t matter if it was Blood Dagger, Lu Li, or Wood Fearing – they were all able to perfectly showcase the power of Stealth .
Dawn’s official website wrote that there was no such thing as a ‘strongest class’, only a ‘strongest player’ .
“No strongest class? Mage is the strongest class . ”
“No strongest class? There is only a strongest Thief . ”
“No strongest class? Come and fight a Berserker one on one . ”
It was nearing the end of the current update . These three classes were enjoying themselves, not knowing that a massive nerf was on its way .
Sapphiron was defeated during a not-so-particularly sunny afternoon .
A corrupted green light illuminated its body, which was now reduced to a pile of bones yet again . Malygos was destined to be unable to change his people’s fate .
There were three skill points awarded and one Enhanced Skill Book which was Ice Magic-based .
Face of Death – this was an Epic item for Defense-based classes .
Then, there was Sapphiron’s Left Eye, a secondary weapon for Mages . Usually, only Warlocks needed these .
Cloak of the Necropolis – this was an exquisite item for Magic classes . With the appearance of this item, the peaceful atmosphere instantly shattered as all the Magic players went into a furious battle over it .

Claw of the Frostwyrm – this was probably the strongest Knuckle in the game at that time .
Although there were two Shamans and a few Thieves, in the end, it was Sakura Memories who took the item at its base price . This item was powerful, so it made a lot of players jealous . Even though Shamans were the weakest class during that version of the game, it didn’t matter . She still managed to take the item at its base price .
Dragonslayer’s Signet – a physical-based Accessory .
Everyone who was laughing at the fierce battles over the Magic items were now silenced .
“120 . Everyone, let’s be good to each other here,” Lu Li said sternly .
Someone else immediately ignored him .
“180 . What did the leader say just then?”
“220 . How much do you have left?”
“Not much, but more than you . ”
“Let me have it . I’ll buy you a meal later . ”
“The most I would do is lend it to you . No need for dinner . ”

“Then you’re not scared that I would drop it if I died?”
“There’s only a 0 . 43% chance of accessories dropping upon death . If you really do lose it, then you’ll pay me for another one . ”
Lu Li’s tears were welling up in his eyes as he watched someone else take the item . He really wanted that one . If it weren’t for the worries of the team disbanding if he just gave it to himself, he would have done just that . These scumbags didn’t even look at him properly while bidding for the item .
He decided that he couldn’t just spend his guild points so loosely anymore . He needed to prioritise and save up for the exquisite items so that this wouldn’t happen a second time .
After Sapphiron’s death, the last sealed door finally disappeared . Now, Kel’Thuzad was waiting patiently in his place for his challengers . However, they all had other things to do and would regather later . They also had matches the next day as well .
If they were unlucky, then they might be eliminated .
It would be best if they didn’t meet with Glory Capital . Lu Li was praying to avoid them . Sorrowless was open about him collecting all sorts of exquisite items . He was spending millions and millions on items . No one else could compare to him .
Most of the best items came from Wild Bosses or Instance Dungeon Bosses . However, there were also exceptions, such as the Faction and Mentor systems .
Lu Li guessed that there were around ten Legendary items floating around in the game . Although this wasn’t much compared to the huge player base, it would be a concern if Glory Capital got their hands on one of them, since it would make them even more terrifying .
There were no ‘main characters’ in a game like this . Anyone could be blessed by luck .
Perhaps a god-level dragon could land in front of you with a sliver of HP left, inviting you to take the kill .

There were also some NPCs who you could save by gifting some basic potions to, build a relationship with them, and then prosper from there .
It seemed as though his prayer had worked . Ruling Sword ended up drawing Blood Red War Flag to be their opponent . Although Blood Red War Flag was still a worthy opponent, this was already the Quarterfinals, so there weren’t any weaklings here .
On the same day, Drizzle Court drew Peerless City as their opponent .
The match between Ruling Sword and Blood Red War Flag didn’t even garner as much attention as Drizzle Court and Peerless City . After all, they were close allies . Everyone else just wanted to see how it would unfold .
If Drizzle Court lost, then it would be rather embarrassing since Peerless City was their branch club . If Peerless City lost, then that wouldn’t be good either . This results of this battle would definitely cause rifts to open within their relationship .
Lu Li even went and checked up on Water Fairy about it .
However, Water Fairy was fine with it . She calmly replied that this was a test of strength to see which club was stronger . It wasn’t that difficult of a situation to deal with .
