Eight players ganging up on one wasn't going to work, nor would the scenario of mutual destruction between Xu Huo and the middle-aged man occur, so the players began to seek out their own opponents.
This wasn't particularly difficult. Some were willing to strike first, while others preferred to hold back and let others fight it out, ready to swoop in during the chaos like a hidden predator.
Xu Huo's first target was the middle-aged man. When the other players deliberately stepped aside, Xu Huo decisively drew his "Cake Cutter" and slashed toward him!
The vertical angle with the ground was just right to maximize the "Cake Cutter's" effect—a fan-shaped slice landed squarely on the middle-aged man's face, slicing through two of his Defense Props in succession.
