707 Winning with Only A Few against Many

Stunned silence fell among the people.

The person was dressed in a black shirt and black pants, and his face was covered by a veil. He had appeared at some point in time behind the transportation boats. He tapped against the water in a relaxed and leisurely manner and shot more than thirty feet forward. Under countless surprised and contemplative gaze beyond the port, he jumped and landed on the pole of a large transportation boat.

"Who are you?!"

"Take him down!"

At that moment, the coachmen who got down from the carts and went on the transportation boat had already transformed into guards protecting the transportation boats. When they saw that someone had landed on one boat, they did not say anything but drew their swords to go up against that person.

Unfortunately for them, even though they had an aggressive presence with their heavy armor, the mysterious masked man calmly jumped to the port, where the people were still busy moving the chests to the transportation boats.

"That boy is just asking for death…"

Some of the people on the port who had been alerted thought that the newcomer was about to do something, but when they saw that the mysterious masked man's actions were akin to suicide, they were immediately delighted by his impending misfortune.

It was as if they could already see the person being pierced by the numerous spears and being thrown into the river.

But what surprised them was that even though a small group of elite heavy-armored cavaliers went to face him, wherever their spears were pointed, that person turned into afterimages in an incredibly nimble manner. He then instantly got close to the side of the elite cavalier closest to him.

A fierce expression appeared on the cavalier's face under his helmet. He drew his sword, intending to cut down the person, but he did not expect that the person would take a step back, and with an extremely strange posture, he exerted force and forced his way to the side of the horse with his shoulder.

An astonishing scene appeared!

Countless people beyond the port cried out in surprise. The steel mounts that were like fortresses and its elite cavalier, who had plenty of martial artist blood on his hands, were knocked off balance by the person ramming his shoulder against them. A shrill neigh rose, and the rider, along with his horse, was thrown violently into the river.

Boom!

A weight that was nearly one thousand and one hundred pounds fell into the water. A loud sound rang out, and a huge splash rose from the river.

The mysterious man in black did not remain idle. He instantly turned around and went toward the second elite cavalier. He did the same thing to him too.

Boom!

A shrill neigh rose, and the second elite cavalier fell into the river after being knocked off-kilter and stumbling to the edge of the port.

The players beyond the port were completely dumbfounded.

They sacrificed hundreds of lives, but they were unable to injure even one of those people. Yet the man who came out of nowhere had managed to kill two with just a few moves.

When someone weighing nearly one thousand and one hundred pounds fell into the river, no matter how great they were, they could not hope to climb up to the shore, unless they got rid of all the armor, but if they did that, they would no longer be a threat.

"Attack!"

The elites from Towering Palace and Class One Hall were enlightened, and they did not want the mysterious masked man to hog all the glory. The top elites from both sides exchanged a glance before they circumnavigated the port, held their breaths when they were near the port, and dashed over while stepping on water.

They could still make it in time. As long as they used the mysterious masked man's method to get rid of all the elite heavy-armored cavaliers, the treasure chests would still land in their hands.

As for the mysterious masked man in black, even though his skills at winning against many alone were very ingenious, even if he were very powerful, under the pressure of the top-class sects, he would not be able to get a lot of treasure chests.

Their competitors were still each other.

"This is bad!"

The expressions of people from Wind Assault Tower changed, and they cried out in surprise while standing in the distance. "The people from Towering Palace and Class One Hall want to attack and snatch those treasure chests for their own!"

"That boy just brought about his own ruin. Those treasure chests are about to turn into someone else's dowry."

Wu Kuo and the others had regretful expressions on their faces.

They had thought that no one would get the bounty from Eunuch Yang's Warehouse, but the appearance of the mysterious masked man in black gave Class One Hall and Towering Palace hope.

Wind Assault Tower did not wish to see those two top-class sects divide the eighty treasure chests among themselves!

"That's not necessarily true."

Only Phantasmal Shadow remained calm and composed in the crowd. She stared at the man-in-black throwing the heavy-armored cavaliers one after another into the river with a faint hint of amusement in her eyes.

"Winning against many with only a few people on your side is something that requires a lot of knowledge, and it's especially true when facing elite heavy-armored cavaliers. They will have to protect themselves but also ingeniously throw off one thousand and one hundred pounds in one go. It's not something that can be achieved with just a few tricks."

"What do you mean?"

"How much does an elite cavalier weigh along with his steed?"

"A good warhorse and an elite warrior weigh nearly one thousand and one hundred pounds. Along with two sets of unique heavy armor and the weapons hanging off them, they should weigh around one tonne…"

"Big brother, you're pretty good. If I asked you to flip them off, could you do it?" Phantasmal Shadow asked without her smile diminishing.

"Urk."

Wu Kuo was rendered speechless. He suddenly thought of something, and his gaze returned to the black shadow at the port.

"There wouldn't be too much of a problem to flip one of them off, but that would be if I were in an extremely safe environment. If I had to find the angle to flip them off in such a complicated battlefield and throw those elite cavaliers off their feet, it'd be very difficult. Besides, I'd have to do it continuously… Just who is he?!"

The Wind Assault Tower elites sensed that it was not something that could be done easily. The actions of the mysterious masked man in black might have seemed to be simple, but there were a lot of tricks involved in them.

Their attention also shifted to the mysterious man in black.

"I can't be certain just who he is, but if Class One Hall and Towering Palace want to take advantage of him, I don't think it's possible."

Around twenty elites from Towering Palace and Class One Hall reached the port.

Blood Robes had already absorbed enough qi to push him to Inaction Realm, and his qi was completely activated. He struck a heavy-armored warrior who was transporting a treasure chest and sent him into the river. Then, he landed on steady feet on the port. He was in high spirits, and all the gloom he felt previously from having his goals intercepted was gone.

Class One Hall's morale was high when they reached the port!

"Haha! Let me do it as well!"

Monk with Thick Eyebrows, Evil Wolf, and Dream Clouds also reached the port.

Grim Green, Vast Heaven, Shangguan Lian, Musical Note, and the rest also landed on the port.

But their arrival was not at all welcomed or regarded fondly.

The moment when they arrived, crossbow bolts were fired at them. They flew at their heads in a dense manner, terrifying them so much that they broke out in cold sweat. The group instantly found itself in a fierce battle and had to hide behind the treasure chests.

Only the man in black used the elite heavy-armored cavaliers as shields to help him avoid the arrows. With a turn, he stuck his shoulder to an elite cavalier and violently sent the eleventh one into the river.

The elites from Class One Hall and Towering Palace were suppressed really badly, to the point that they did not dare show their faces.

Whoosh!

Monk with Thick Eyebrows could no longer hold it back. He used a Buddhst divine ability to rush over.

But right when he approached the mysterious man in black, another volley of crossbow bolts shot at him, and he broke out in cold sweat. Before he had the time to compose himself, four elite heavy-armored cavaliers charged at him.

There was just no way for him to attack. He tapped against the ground and retreated at an even faster speed.

As for the man in black, he showed no signs of fear. He used his longsword to parry the longspear that came thrusting at him and pressed close to the elite cavalier like a swimming fish. Then, he spread open his arms and used his hands to push against two warhorses that came charging at him.

Boom!

Four warhorses looked as if they had been struck by lightning. They flew to the sides along with the elite cavaliers on their backs and were sent off the port at the same time.
