FTW knew EVE’s battle tactics and comps like the back of their hand.

Since making it to Worlds, their coaching team hadn’t taken a single breather, studying every potential opponent that they would face.

It was a mountain of reports compiling analysis of teams’ past performance and each player’s current condition and playstyle, which would cause even Little Lunatic Wei’s eyes to grow wide and his jaw slack.

It didn’t need to be said that Chen Feng and Brother Tang spent many hours poring over the data in order to extract insights.

As such, they were mentally prepared for EVE to ramp up the rhythm after Little Ning fell.

Nevertheless, going up against it in real life still shook them up.

Brother Cai had just let out a sigh of relief after arduously taking down a wave of jungle monsters when out of the blue, a wispy cloud sunk over them. His spine prickled with unease. “What the hell…”

Wei Xiao: “……”

Brother Cai reacted swiftly, intercepting with a Ground Stab, and Wei Xiao also flung out a Soul Blade. Their reaction speed should have been quick enough to force Xie He back, however… he lunged towards them with Connecting Clouds, and fog spread from the bushes, coiling around Brother Cai’s legs. Despite the spikes erupting densely from the ground, the Immortal Warlock had actually managed to find an opening to glide through!

Wei Xiao’s dark irises gleamed. His thin lips curled up slightly. “Powerful.”

Truly. He had evaded not only the Ground Stab but also Wei Xiao’s Soul Blade!

The Soul Warlock’s Soul Blade was a ranged attack, and Wei Xiao had deliberately adjusted the trajectory to complement Brother Cai’s Ground Stab. The rapport between the duo could only be matched by few others globally, but despite their tightly coordinated defence, the Immortal Warlock rushed straight towards Wei Xiao as though it posed no resistance to him.

More distressingly, the Immortal Warlock was already level 6!

Wei Xiao had just hit level 5, but Xie He in the mid lane was already level 6!

Taking first blood from Ning Zhehan had awarded him experience, but his current level also showed that he had not missed a single minion in the early stage. The micro play required to subdue an enemy whilst not losing a single minion was insane.

In addition, EVE’s jungler had ceded a blue buff to him, and all this led to the Immortal Warlock’s current level 6.

What did a level 6 Immortal Warlock signify?

The cloud layer that streamed over converged into a deadly blade, slicing them with an icy glint. The Immortal Warlock danced towards them like an assassin under the blazing sun, about to reap a life in broad daylight!

Brother Cai gnashed his teeth. “I’ll block him, you retreat.”

Wei Xiao glanced at the mini map. “Old Yue, don’t come.”

They had no chance. Xie He still had a Light Priest by his side, and any reinforcements could be locked down by a Thousand Cloud Layers coupled with a Light Prison. In the early game, the Immortal Warlock could rely entirely on Connecting Clouds and Landing On Clouds to defend themselves.

As for retreating…

How could a Soul Warlock outrun an Immortal Warlock who flew on clouds?

The Thousand Cloud Layers arose. Wei Xiao and Bai Cai’s vision were blinded by fog, and all they could see were their rapidly dropping health bars.
