The team of about twenty slowed down after entering the grassland.
They saw the Cloud Summit Quartet at a distance before them.
Among the four, the only male stood in front holding a large shield, while the two on either side wielded weapons resembling straps and scythes. The last one, a plant-type supporter, stood behind.
This was a formation to face the enemy.
Since the other side had no intention of fleeing, they naturally wouldn't rush to chase but quickly adjusted their formation and slowly approached, stopping about fifty meters away from the Cloud Summit Quartet.
This was a distance they considered relatively safe, one that could avoid the terrifying abilities of that plant-type support.
Neither side exchanged taunts like "get lost" or "surrender" as the previous two small teams had when ambushed; everyone understood each other's intentions and saw no need for empty words. However, there was one thing the leader of this team had to tell the Cloud Summit Quartet.
"Wait, you will die very painfully because this is a gift from Amus to Ye Zhongming."
His gaze was fixed on Liang Chuyin.
The internet celebrity merely tilted her head, a slight smile on her face, with no other reaction.
"You may not know what you are about to—"
"You talk too much." Liang Chuyin suddenly interrupted him coldly.
"What you think has nothing to do with me; as far as I’m concerned, you’re all dead." As she said this, she suddenly jumped high into the air, a height that created a sense of disbelief among those present.
How could someone at their level jump so high without any external assistance?
They were certain this wasn't a skill but merely a jump made possible by her agility.
At most, she used a step forward for leverage!
After Liang Chuyin leaped into the air, the team took a moment to react. Everyone already had their weapons in hand, looking up at Liang Chuyin, readying their abilities. Some were on guard against Xia Bai, Gao Yi, and the Yama Tree, preparing for their attacks.
Yet, neither Xia Bai, Gao Yi, nor the Yama Tree moved, standing still while Liang Chuyin reached her apex.
At that moment, the internet celebrity was enveloped in her embroidered ribbon ball, appearing as if charged with energy, forming a perfect sphere.
Earlier, Liang Chuyin hadn't used a skill, but now, it was clear this was indeed one.
Two sharp rays of cold light shot up from the ground, instantly landing on the embroidered ribbon ball, as someone from the team attacked.
However, the spot where the ball was hit merely caved in slightly and then returned to its original shape in the blink of an eye.
This left many slightly stunned.
They knew the Cloud Summit Quartet was strong, but no one was stronger than two thousand fuleira. The two who just attacked were of the same level, yet to withstand two attacks without a scratch?
They couldn't believe it was a sheer demonstration of strength; perhaps it was due to equipment or skills?
While they were still trying to process this, Liang Chuyin began descending, still wrapped in the embroidered ribbon ball, crashing down toward the team.
"Scatter!"
The speaker's face changed dramatically, and he shouted for others to spread out, sensing that things were about to take a turn for the worse.
The others immediately scattered in all directions, completely disregarding their formation.
Liang Chuyin could block the full-force attacks of two opponents at the same level with her bizarre embroidered ribbon ball; they could not.
But they had only taken two steps outward when they suddenly felt a pulling force dragging them back!
Looking down, they saw that the short grass around their ankles had inexplicably grown and was now entangled around each of their ankles.
Everyone could feel the binding of the grass was not particularly strong; they could easily break free with some effort or by cutting with their weapons.
But was there still time? No, there wasn't, as Liang Chuyin crashed down from the sky.
Boom!
A loud sound erupted as Liang Chuyin landed in the center of the group, creating a large crater in the ground. The energy and scattering dirt, along with the immense impact, sent the approaching team members flying in all directions.
