Chapter 206: Confrontation
Although the other brave warriors on the scene were diligently attacking the Man-Eating Flower, the health bar was dropping very slowly. It was a struggle to reduce it by 10%, only for one warrior to be consumed, returning the flower to full health.
“What a pity…” a female voice muttered while shaking her head.
She was tall, with bright red hair cascading down to her heels, and two long, curved horns protruding from her forehead. Her black bodysuit snugly wrapped her proud upper body down to her thighs, with several straps encircling her sexy legs. From a distance, her expression hidden beneath her red hair was hard to discern.
Zha Chen noticed there weren’t many people around her and casually walked over.
“Excuse me, miss, may I ask how many rounds this is?”
Surprised, she slowly turned around, “Little guy… are you talking to me?”
Little… little guy? Zha Chen felt a sense of indignity and corrected her, “It’s big guy.”
“…” Fenghua’s face turned slightly red, and she turned away, pretending not to know him.
Mo Ran widened his eyes and gave a thumbs-up, looking as if he was saying Zha Chen was the stronger one.
“Hehehe~” She laughed at Zha Chen’s comment. “You really have a way with words.”
She then added, “This is the fourth round. That little mage up there started by picking a relatively weak opponent, deliberately dragging it out, filling the arena with his forces.
And this move!?
But… as you can see, he’s now in a dilemma.
On stage, the Undead Mage’s figure swayed gently in the wind, already at a very weakened state.
Ultimately, with five minutes left on the countdown, he struggled to jump off the stage but was swallowed whole by the Man-Eating Flower.
“…Speaking of which, this arena battle is indeed merciless towards enemies. One wrong move can cost you your life.”
“Little guy, are you scared?”
“I’m not! Once I’m on stage, I’ll definitely kill all around.” Zha Chen said calmly.
“…The girl was taken aback, not expecting Zha Chen to be so thick-skinned. So… what are you hesitating for?”
Due to the Man-Eating Flower’s dominance, not a single person dared to step onto the stage for a while.
After all, there were only a few Golden Grade monsters, and most participants only had Silver or even Black Iron levels.
There’s no rush; I’ll observe for a while.
“Is that so…”
“Fenghua, do you think the Man-Eating Flower is a reliable opponent?” Fan Xing asked, as she couldn’t see the detailed info from too far away, but she estimated it had to be at least a Silver Grade Boss.
Fenghua remained silent, thinking for a moment before nodding, “No problem. If its attack patterns are only those, I can fight.”
“Okay, you go first then.”
“Mm.”
…
On stage, the Man-Eating Flower swaggered, chewing on remnants while occasionally dripping green liquid, looking quite grotesque.
Tap—Tap—Tap!
Stepping firmly over several stone steps, Fenghua confidently jumped onto the arena.
The Man-Eating Flower noticed her, its massive mouth emanating a strong odor.
Check info!
Fenghuayue casually shared the monster’s information with the squad, and by the way, Mo Ran was also pulled into the team.
Big Blade Flower (Leader Level Boss):
Rarity: Silver Grade
Level: 40
Health: 80,000
Physical Attack: 792-955
Physical Defense: 550
Magical Defense: 500
Skills: ???
Description: The Big Blade Flower is a branch of the Man-Eating Flower, possessing the ability to prey on enemies and use its sharp, blade-like branches to cut them into pieces.
Fenghua’s level was only 30, which was a full 10 levels below the Big Blade Flower, and the skills were not visible.
Although it was only Silver Grade, the attributes at level 40 were already superior to low-level Golden monsters.
Moreover, these types of monsters had a relatively invincible skill—Devour.
Once someone was eaten, it was basically equivalent to infinite control plus corrosion effect, unless someone else could hold it down to have a chance to return.
But in a one-on-one scenario, everything relied on oneself.
Fenghua’s class was Twilight Ranger. In this territory, some skills couldn’t be used, or it would be easy to reveal herself. This battle was bound to be tough.
“This is bad… we should wait for the next opponent.” Mo Ran frowned, clearly aware of the Big Blade Flower’s capabilities.
“We can only choose to trust her; once she’s on stage, there’s no turning back.”
“That’s true… Go, God Fenghua!!”
…
The Man-Eating Flower couldn’t speak human language, only making “woo” sounds to intimidate. It extended its scythe-like branches, shimmering under the sunlight, resembling real weapons.
No wonder it was called the Big Blade Flower.
Fenghua calmly nocked an arrow on her long bow and cautiously shot an arrow.
Thud!
The arrow whizzed through the air.
“Ahhhh!”
She was swallowed by the Man-Eating Flower, not even a grunt could be heard.
Is it immune to ranged attacks? No, a Silver Grade Boss shouldn’t have such an invincible skill.
The fiery red longbow was drawn again, this time targeting the Big Blade Flower’s eyes.
Black light flashed at the arrowhead—Armor-Piercing Arrow!
“Clang!”
The speed of the branch’s counter was exceedingly quick, snapping the Armor-Piercing Arrow in half with a whoosh.
Not only that, after catching the attack, something akin to an embryo sprouted beneath the Man-Eating Flower, raising its entire body up an hour’s height and visibly moving closer!
“This thing is a moving tank?” Zha Chen marveled.
“If it gets any closer, there’ll be nowhere to hide!” Mo Ran also expressed concern.
The subject in question didn’t seem overly nervous, continuing to shoot arrows.
The distance between them was closing.
Phew!
-2506
The blue weak point damage exploded at the Big Blade Flower’s pupil.
This hit seemed to act as a trigger, causing the Man-Eating Flower to wildly swing its scythes in pain, while its massive mouth suddenly gaped wide, and its movement speed skyrocketed!
Fenghua remained unfazed, placing her longbow on her back, drawing a greenish fine sword from her waist, and charging toward the enemy.
“Wind Dance!”
A gentle azure breeze swirled around her, accelerating its owner as she drew near.
What is she doing? Zha Chen pondered. If it were him, he would definitely keep his distance and use ranged skills for constant wear-down.
After all, the Man-Eating Flower seemed to lack ranged attack methods.
A massive shadow fell over Fenghua’s petite figure, and she was almost voluntarily throwing herself into the enemy’s jaws!
Even the observing NPCs held their breath. Was this a death wish?
Alas.
The terrifying scene didn’t occur; Fenghua lightly tapped her toes and gracefully glided along the diagonal, with her fine sword grazing a blood mark along the edge of the massive mouth!

The Man-Eating Flower, following its momentum, collided against the guardrail, while Fenghua sprinted nonstop until she reached the other end of the shaking platform.
Recalling her fine sword, the fiery red longbow was drawn again, the bow and arrow shining spectacularly in red light. Once stretched to the limit, she released it, crack!
Meteor Arrow!!!
