Even the Hero's Soul Bows in Respect

"It's a Flash!! Bai Mu dodges Yue Lun's basic attack with Flash..."

"My god! Yue Lun's throwing dagger also missed!!!"

"The lethal basic attack combo into dagger was completely nullified by Bai Mu's Flash!"

"The mark on Yue Lun detonated... dealing over 600 damage!!!"

"Both their health bars are now at the same level..."

"No! Bai Mu actually has slightly more health!"

In that split second, Zhong Yi rapidly commentated on the breathtaking scene before him.

Within just a few seconds, so many maneuvers had taken place!

It was truly overwhelming to follow.

All Zhong Yi saw were two elite Zed players, weaving in and out of their shadows...

And then Yue Lun, who was at full health moments ago, was suddenly on the brink of death!

As for Bai Mu, who had been low on health...

Somehow maintained that exact sliver of HP!

Apart from the active ability of Blade of the Ruined King at the start, Yue Lun couldn't land a single point of damage!

Now, both fighters were hanging by a thread.

One basic attack would decide it all.

Seeing his attacks and daggers all dodged by Lu Ze, Yue Lun burned with humiliation.

Never in his life had he felt so utterly disgraced!

"AAAAH!! HOW?!!"

Furious, Yue Lun Flashed toward the direction where Lu Ze had vanished.

Now, his daggers and Shadow Slash were on cooldown...

All he could rely on was a basic attack!

And so could his opponent!

With both one hit away from death, whoever struck first would claim victory!

"I'll land the first hit, I will!!"

"It has to be me, it can only be me..."

At this moment, Yue Lun's eyes saw nothing but Lu Ze.

His entire focus was locked onto his target.

In terms of gameplay mechanics, it was like frantically clicking his mouse on Lu Ze.

"Not bad for an ordinary player."

Lu Ze nodded with a faint smile.

Just as Yue Lun Flashed toward him, his blade about to land—

Shadow Swap.

A clean Shadow Slash finished Yue Lun off.

The announcer's "Legendary" call echoed once more across the canyon.

Only then did the live-stream audience snap out of their daze.

[What just happened?]

[Couldn't see, couldn't understand... just pure badassery.]

[600 HP vs. 2500 HP, and he still had 300 left after the kill??]

[Was that really Yue Lun? Feels like even I could've done that!]

[Anyone could... this Bai Mu even dodges basic attacks, what kind of nonsense is that?]

[This fight just cemented Bai Mu as a god!]

[Poor Yue Lun, he's gonna be remembered for this forever.]

"As for Bai Mu's mechanics, all I can say is..."

"Flawless!"

Zhong Yi took a deep breath, awestruck.

"One single basic attack from Yue Lun would've ended him..."

"But somehow, he dodged even that!"

"Truly a player whose soul is one with his champion! Not even Yue Lun, merged with the Shadow’s essence, could challenge him!"

"Wait... Zed’s phantom just separated from Bai Mu?"

"What’s he doing?"

Under the stunned gazes of all, Zed’s spectral form slowly stepped away from Lu Ze, moving behind him—

Then knelt on one knee, bowing in reverence!

The sight sent chills down Zhong Yi’s spine.

"Even the unruly Zed now prostrates himself in submission..."

"This might be the highest honor ever witnessed in the Immortal Demon Canyon!"

"Beyond merging with the Shadow’s essence, beyond unity of man and spirit!!"

"A demon king descended from the heavens, a deity walking among mortals!"

"At this moment—"

"Bai Mu is the master of the Shadow Order, the god of assassins!"

Amid Zhong Yi’s electrifying commentary, the chat erupted.

A flood of gifts filled the stream.

Even frugal cultivators splurged on small tokens to express their excitement.

Meanwhile, sect leaders watching the stream spent lavishly—

The "Ten Thousand Swords Return" effect lit up the screen nonstop.

[“Shadow Sovereign” gifted “Ten Thousand Swords Return” x10!]

[“Nine Swords” gifted “Ten Thousand Swords Return” x99!]

[“Chosen One” gifted “Ten Thousand Swords Return” x99!]

[“Seeker of Truth” gifted “Ten Thousand Swords Return” x99!]

Just as the celebration peaked, Zhong Yi’s expression tightened.

In his vision, the nearly-dead Lee Sin who had fled earlier was now lurking behind the jungle wall.

"What’s that Lee Sin planning?"

"Oh no... Bai Mu has no vision on him!"

"If that Sonic Wave hits, Bai Mu is done for!"

"Could this be it...? Will Bai Mu’s undefeated streak finally break?"

After his dazzling display, Lu Ze remained in place, amused by the phantom bowing to him.

The spirits’ sentience came from the cyber-souls he’d borrowed.

But this spectacle? Unexpected.

The legacy of the Demon King from his past life kept proving its worth.

Then—

A green energy blast shot from the shadows near the wolves.

Lu Ze noticed it.

His instinct was to sidestep.

But mid-motion, a thought struck him:

"With their skill level... why bother?"

In that split-second decision, he shifted back, deliberately eating the Sonic Wave.

"Disaster! Bai Mu got hit by Sonic Wave... but wait, did he take it on purpose?"

Zhong Yi muttered, eyes glued to the screen.

"At 200 HP, Lee Sin’s Resonating Strike’s execute damage will surely finish him!"

The moment the skill landed, the jungler from [Slay Immortals] grinned:

"Hah! Die and AFK... the ancient relic is ours!!"

He activated Resonating Strike, lunging at Lu Ze.

Calmly, Lu Ze placed a shadow behind him.

As Lee Sin closed in—

Shadow Swap!

Shadow Slash!

Razor Shuriken!

Lee Sin’s corpse plummeted mid-air.

Zhong Yi’s jaw dropped again.

"Bai Mu just 1v5’d and wiped them all!!"

"He still hasn’t recalled, sitting at 200 HP... Will anyone from [Slay Immortals] dare challenge the Canyon’s god now?"

"At this point, even if Bai Mu AFKs, his team could end the game..."

"Eh? What’s this?"

"All five [Slay Immortals] players just disconnected and left the rift!!"
