Chapter 165: The Tournament Begins!
October 13, 2052... Weekend, 9:00 AM sharp.
The "World's Number One Martial Arts Tournament" was held as scheduled. This time, there was no level requirement for participation.
In Wen Yu's view, the number of participants was almost equivalent to the current number of online players in "After Tomorrow" worldwide, and also almost equivalent to the total number of people who had entered "After Tomorrow".
"Ding!~"
"World Announcement: Fun event started! Total registered participants: 9,492,835,812!"
"Now starting the first round! 9,492,835,812 into 1,000,000!"
"The first match of the first round will begin in 30 seconds!"
"Note: After the match begins, you will be automatically teleported into the battle zone!"
"Note: The match duration is 10 minutes. If a winner cannot be decided within 10 minutes, the side with the better status will be declared the winner."
"Note: There is no penalty for death during combat."
"Please prepare yourselves!"
Wen Yu estimated that after this tournament ended, there would likely be a world combat power ranking released, which would truly determine the world's number one.
The rewards would certainly be extremely generous! Wen Yu was determined to win it!
He checked his equipment again and viewed his magic attack power.
After these few days of frantically grinding rabbits and leveling up.
Wen Yu's intelligence attribute had reached 639285+2300 + 250218.
"Nearly 900,000 intelligence..."
"A single Magic Shield provides 3.6 million shield value; damn, there's absolutely no one who can kill me."
Wen Yu's opponent for the first match was a white person; Wen Yu couldn't tell which country he was from.
"You really demonstrated the words 'participation is what matters' to the fullest..."
The little player opposite him held equipment Wen Yu had never seen before, but the [novice cloth armor] he was wearing was something Wen Yu also had in his space ring.
Clearly, this was a "newbie" who had just entered the game.
Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers; the opponent picked up the long sword in his hand and rushed towards Wen Yu.
"Come on, This Person Wen has been looking forward to a close-range 1v1 real man duel for a long time!"
He stabbed Wen Yu with his sword, and the result was, of course, a MISS.
Wen Yu backhanded and struck the opponent's head hard with his staff!
- 160
The staff blow knocked the opponent to the ground, his HP instantly depleted.
"Ding!~"
"Congratulations on defeating your opponent and advancing to the next round!"
Today's first round of duels was to determine the world's top one million; Wen Yu estimated internally that it would likely take about a dozen matches.
Just like the previous China Martial Arts Tournament, each round would only start matching for the second match after all players' duels had ended.
And when it came to the world tournament, no one gave an inch, not to mention the matches between Shield Warriors and Priests.
When two small players of the initial level met, wouldn't they exchange some tips?
Chat about each other's Novice Village?
Wen Yu naturally couldn't stand there waiting foolishly during this time.
It was just right; he could take advantage of these two-plus hours to grind the grade of his space set.
He arrived at the area where level 90 wild monsters were located in Moon City.
"Start grinding! Strive to raise the grade of the space set a bit more in these few days!"
Wen Yu's current space mage set had already reached legendary quality; the next level was immortal-grade.
And the number of monsters needed to grind for it was extremely terrifying.
Currently, Wen Yu's progress was only at (582 / 100000)
"The road is long and arduous; the level 90 dungeon doesn't have small monsters for me to kill, so I can only grind wild monsters."
Wen Yu's second match opponent was still a player who remained in the novice stage.
He opened his mouth and spewed the national essence of the little japanese: "Baka Yaro!"
It seemed he knew who Wen Yu was.
Just as he was about to pick up his staff to strike, the opponent directly chose to forfeit.
"Coward, you sure gave up quickly!"
Now that he had Four Plates Harmony, Wen Yu's monster grinding had become extremely simple.
He cast [Four Plates Harmony] in the level 90 wild monster area, instantly killing all monsters, then teleported to the level 89 wild monster area to clear the map.
Then he returned to the level 90 wild monster area to activate [Four Plates Harmony]...
Repeating this cycle, he ground level 89 and level 90 wild monsters together.
The progress of the space mage set was growing rapidly, and Wen Yu's level also rushed to 90 within an hour.
"Whew, time to go to the level 100 area."
Continuing to walk deeper, Wen Yu also cleared the surrounding wild monsters as he went.
The level 100 wild monster in Moon City, [Underground Demon Lizard].
In terms of attributes, it didn't even compare to the level 80 small monsters in the Hell dungeon.
The attacks hitting Wen Yu were painless and itchless.
As Wen Yu expected, the first round of duels totaled 13 matches.
In every match, there were people who lasted the full 10 minutes.
At the beginning, Wen Yu could still encounter small players from Novice Village, but by the later duels, he couldn't see them at all.
When the world's top one million were truly decided, it was already more than two hours later.
After finishing 13 matches, Wen Yu had encountered uneven opponents, the strongest of which was likely late Second Class Transfer, around level 62.
Wen Yu's level at this time had reached 91 (12859288 / 16812000)
"Ding!~"
"World Announcement: The second round of the fun event will begin tomorrow morning at 9:00 AM! Players who advanced to the top 1,000,000, please prepare!"
The event would only continue tomorrow; for the rest of today, Wen Yu was not prepared to continue grinding monsters.
It took him three hours to finish all the dungeons; through the dungeons, Wen Yu now had a fixed income of three equipment materialization cards every day.
And the skill materialization cards hoarded in his backpack were countless.
Wen Yu also made up his mind to materialize all his third class transfer skills!
Not to mention the output and control methods, skills like [Void Pressure] were not skills Wen Yu dared to easily attempt in the real world.
If something went wrong, it might not be fun if it crushed Wen Yu's villa.
However, after materializing all the third class transfer skills, the one that satisfied Wen Yu the most was [Escape into the Void]; just looking at the skill description, it was no different from the game.
And the only difference was that after Wen Yu escaped into the void and hid in a third-party space, he was already able to travel freely between walls.
It had the same effect as Li Jue's [Trace Amount].
And this was something that ordinary assassin stealth simply couldn't achieve.
"To go to a women's bathhouse, clearly my kind of skill is more reliable!"
Logging back online, Wen Yu also chatted with Li Jue for a while.
His matches today were also quite smooth; the first four he encountered were all players from Novice Village. Wen Yu had to say, he was simply the chosen one.
What a small probability it was for a player from Novice Village to win up to the fourth match, and yet Li Jue had run into them...
Wen Yu also asked Li Jue about some situations regarding [Trace Amount].
If one had to compare, Li Jue's [Trace Amount] was still better.
Although everyone couldn't attack after activating stealth, Li Jue, who activated [Trace Amount], could even choose to float in the air!
"My god, you can fly..."
***
Chapter 166: Battle Against [Curse]
October 14th, 2052...
Today was another day for Wen Yu to build a teleportation array. After discussing the specific location and Time with the Hei Province Military Region, Wen Yu chose to log in.
The construction Time was naturally set for after today's Top Million Tournament concluded.
It was still early, so Wen Yu ran toward the Level 100 wild monster area of Moon City.
As he ran, Wen Yu cleared out the surrounding monsters.
Ding!~
Hidden Dungeon discovered—[Wind Emperor's Mausoleum]!
Wen Yu, who was traversing the map, paused in his tracks.
"What's this? There's a hidden dungeon in this place?"
Looking around, Wen Yu's current position was at the edge of the Level 97 wild monster area.
He hadn't expected a hidden dungeon to exist in this location.
Marking the spot, Wen Yu continued running deeper.
"Once I finish everything I need to do today, I'll come back and study you slowly, hidden dungeon!"
——————
Today's matches were to narrow the million down to 1,000. Similarly, it wasn't a round-robin; it was a pure test of everyone's raw strength.
If you ran into a powerful enemy and failed to make the top 1,000, you couldn't complain.
For example, the opponent currently standing across from Wen Yu.
She was an "old acquaintance" of Wen Yu's, the Vice Guild Leader of the Women Should Be Strong guild, Chen Ruo.
She was truly unlucky, running into Wen Yu in the very first match of the million-to-1,000 bracket.
Chen Ruo had previously ranked 29th in the Huaxia Region tournament.
Her raw strength was certainly not weak. If she hadn't encountered a top-tier enemy, making the world top 1,000 would have been no problem at all.
However, it was clear that her journey in the World Tournament was coming to an end here.
Chen Ruo clearly understood this as well, though no sign of disappointment could be detected on her face.
Just like during the auction, she sized Wen Yu up with a scrutinizing gaze.
After a short while, she chose to forfeit.
"..."
"What's the deal with this girl..."
There were ten matches in total today. Aside from Chen Ruo in the first round, Wen Yu didn't encounter any particularly strong opponents.
However, in this World Tournament, there were currently very few people in the entire world who knew they couldn't afford to provoke Wen Yu just by seeing him.
Aside from Chen Ruo and a player from the Hidden Kill guild he met later, Wen Yu personally sent his opponents packing in the remaining eight matches.
It remained easy and relaxed; he didn't encounter any formidable foes.
He only encountered one class that could be considered interesting.
From the looks of it, it should be a class similar to a "Summoner."
The monsters summoned also possessed decent attributes.
The player summoned a total of 20 monsters—zombies, wild beasts, all sorts of strange things.
He wasn't sure if 20 monsters was the limit of what that player could summon at his current stage.
As the Top Million Tournament ended, Wen Yu was preparing to return to the hidden dungeon to investigate when the familiar system notification sounded again.
Ding!~
World Announcement: The third round of the Fun Event will begin in 60 minutes! Will the 1,000 advancing players please be prepared!
Spectating permissions are now temporarily open; you may choose to watch the duels of your favorite players!
...
It was the same spectating permission again, the difference being that this Time he would be a "monkey" on display for the whole world.
"But it's not starting for another hour. I'll take this Time to fly to Hei Province."
One hour was enough for the military's ultra-high-speed plane to reach Hei Province.
And Wen Yu only needed to build the teleportation array and then return home through it.
...
In Hei Province in October, the weather had passed the summer heat and begun to gradually turn cold; in a few places, it had even started to snow.
This was the first Time Wen Yu had seen snow, and it was quite a novel experience.
There was already a thick layer of snow in the military region.
And the Hei Province teleportation array was established amidst this pure white snow.
Since the World Tournament was on today, Wen Yu had also given Aunt Huang the day off.
Wen Yu would just find something to eat himself when he had Time.
After so many days, everyone was no longer so surprised by the fact that humans possessed skills.
The state restricted fighting that caused casualties in the real world, but it did not forbid the release of skills.
Archers using Ride the Wind to travel and Mages using Teleport to get around had already become the norm.
There was absolutely no problem with Wen Yu teleporting out to grab a meal.
...
Putting on the helmet again, it wasn't long before the familiar system notification rang out.
Ding!~
The Top 1,000 Round-Robin is now open! 1,000 down to 100!
The first match of the third round will begin in 1 minute!
Note: Top 1,000 Round-Robin! Each player will complete 10 matches! Finally, the top 100 will enter the World Top 100!
Wen Yu hadn't expected the round-robin to start immediately upon entering the top 1,000.
When the Time was up, Wen Yu was teleported into the combat zone.
Wen Yu's opponent this Time was another young girl. Her skin was darker than an Asian's, but not quite to the level of a Black person's.
"Looks like she's probably from East India."
But when Wen Yu looked up at the game ID, he was truly taken aback!
Curse!
"Man, with a name like that, you're actually a girl!"
Wen Yu hadn't expected it, and the opponent was clearly even more startled.
The two words 'Time' had been hanging at the very top of the world level leaderboard ever since it opened.
Aside from a brief moment when he was overtaken by Pierre, his position had never wavered.
"I've run into a strong enemy this Time," Wen Yu thought.
The opponent also nervously picked up her staff and greeted Wen Yu in broken Chinese.
"Li Hao!~"
"Ah! Hello, hello! You even know Chinese?"
The other party didn't speak further, only shaking her head.
Well then, she only knew the two words for "Hello."
What Wen Yu didn't know was that at this moment, the match of [Time] vs [Curse]...
...had seen its viewership skyrocket directly to 6 billion people!
This was a peak duel that was truly hard to come by in the Top 1,000 Round-Robin!
A peak duel between Rank 1 and Rank 6 on the world level leaderboard!
Wen Yu refreshed his Magic Shield but wasn't in a hurry to strike.
Wen Yu didn't believe the opponent could beat him; there was no harm in seeing the strength of her skills.
[Curse] clearly saw Wen Yu's intention as well. No longer hesitating, she started directly with her staff.
A black skull mark appeared above Wen Yu's head.
Feeling his physical state at this moment, Wen Yu discovered that his movement speed, all attributes, spirit, and so on had all decreased.
"Wow, her name is Curse, and the skills she plays are mainly Curses too?"
He saw [Curse] raise her staff again. Eerie light flickered, and Wen Yu immediately entered a Confused state.
His vision went dark, and he began to wander aimlessly around the field.
"There's Confusion too!"
Wen Yu didn't use Escape into the Void, relying solely on his abnormal status resistance to withstand Curse's offensive.
The health bar above his head began to drop. During the confusion, he could clearly feel the opponent's skills blasting against him.
The damage was considerable; every hit on Wen Yu resulted in 50,000 to 60,000 damage!
And when Wen Yu's confusion ended, he saw a black skull with a gaping maw biting toward him!
Wen Yu didn't dodge, standing right there and tanking this [Skull Extinction].
-120,828!
After the hit, Wen Yu also entered a Bleeding state, losing nearly 40,000 health per second, which made him even more aware of the power of this skill!
Seeing the opponent standing still and no longer attacking, Wen Yu estimated that this was probably [Curse]'s ultimate move.
"It's somewhat interesting—reducing the enemy's stats plus Confusion."
"Bombarding wildly during that Time, and the ultimate move has decent output."
"It counts as quite powerful."
The 5 seconds of continuous health loss ended. Wen Yu's shield value had dropped by nearly 600,000 in total.
This was under the condition that Wen Yu didn't dodge. If he truly fought seriously, the moment he entered Confusion, Wen Yu would have used Escape into the Void, and [Curse] would still only be destined for an instant kill.
Seeing that [Time] was completely unfazed, [Curse] let out a deep sigh and then chose to forfeit.
"Xie xie!"
...
Well then! She even knows how to say "Thank you"!
***
Chapter 167: [Wind Emperor Tomb]
After defeating [Curse], the next few duels Wen Yu faced didn't involve any particularly powerful opponents. To Wen Yu's pleasant surprise, he didn't even encounter a single domestic player in the first few matches.
"If they didn't run into me, then their chances of advancing to the top 100 are even greater!"
The competition continued, and Wen Yu also kept grinding level 100 wild monsters.
Until the eighth round of the round-robin tournament, when Wen Yu encountered a formidable enemy once again!
"You guys must be targeted by the system; why do you keep running into me?"
The opponent was a white man with golden hair, his blue eyes gleaming as he stared at Wen Yu.
[Stab Your Chrysanthemum].
Wen Yu knew this person—the top of the level rankings in the [Romantic Region]. When the world level leaderboard first opened, this person was ranked 9th, but by now, he had fallen to the 10th position.
"Hello!"
"Number one at the ranking list in the world!~"
Wen Yu nodded back at him.
He didn't understand the middle part, but Wen Yu understood the [Number one] at the beginning and the [in the world] at the end.
"He's actually complimenting me, damn..."
This person was clearly the type to get familiar quickly; from the moment he saw Wen Yu, his muttering had never stopped.
He rattled off a whole bunch of gibberish, and Wen Yu didn't understand a single word.
"OK! Come on!"
After speaking, Wen Yu waved at his opponent in a dashing manner.
A formidable enemy—that was from the opponent's perspective.
To Wen Yu, there was no difference between being 10th on the world level leaderboard and being 1 billionth.
One skill was enough to take him out directly.
...
"You no!"
"Me yes!"
Hehehe, you little weakling, you're not good enough~
The subsequent duels didn't have any surprises, except for the very last player he encountered, who was also a Hidden Class.
He even had a skill similar to [Snake Granny] that prevented instant death.
After throwing one skill, Wen Yu just stood there with his arms crossed, watching him.
Since using potions wasn't allowed during the duel, his health drained away completely in less than two minutes.
With that, Wen Yu successfully entered the world's top 100 rankings!
The system indicated that the top 100 matches would only start tomorrow. Having fought 20 consecutive battles today, the time had already passed 3 PM.
Wen Yu also stubbornly grinded wild monsters for several hours. After finishing all three daily dungeon runs, his level had reached 94 (1,213,435 / 17,712,000).
"At this pace, I should be able to reach level 95 tomorrow and unlock the level 100 dungeon!"
The level 100 immortal-grade accessory set dungeon—Wen Yu had been waiting for this for too long.
Recently, his level had been skyrocketing, but he was still wearing a level 40 accessory set.
Wen Yu had obtained the level 60 five-piece set, but the added attributes didn't satisfy him.
As for the level 80 legendary accessory set, Wen Yu currently only had a 3-piece set.
Therefore, Wen Yu simply decided to just wait and switch to the level 100 accessory set.
Taking off his helmet, Wen Yu prepared to find somewhere to eat. Walking on the street, compared to a month ago, the flow of people was less than ten percent of what it used to be.
Wen Yu also confidently used teleportation to zip through the streets, completely unafraid of being seen by others.
And the people on the street were already long used to this.
...
After grabbing a quick bite to eat, Wen Yu returned to [Dragon God Yunzhou].
Now was not the time for Wen Yu to slow down and rest.
"Now it's time to go see what that Hidden Dungeon is all about!"
——————
Arriving at the level 97 dungeon wild monster area again, Wen Yu stood at the dungeon entrance and waited.
For this dungeon run, Wen Yu called his "alt" to explore together.
If it was a dungeon that required too much brainpower, having Li Jue there would give Wen Yu an extra sense of security.
"Brother Yu!"
Li Jue started calling out to Wen Yu from a distance.
When Li Jue walked up close, Wen Yu heard him continue, "What dungeon is it, Brother Yu?"
"I don't know, I just happened to pass by and found it."
"Judging by the name, it's some big shot's tomb, but the difficulty shouldn't be too high. After all, it's a dungeon that appeared in the wild monster area, not as hard to find as the [Temple of Time]."
"Thinking so much is useless; let's get ready to enter, Brother Yu."
Adding Li Jue to his party, the two of them turned into green smoke and drifted toward the Hidden Dungeon!
"Ding!~"
"You have entered the Hidden Dungeon [Wind Emperor Tomb]! Please kill all monsters in the dungeon to eliminate the threat!"
Hearing the familiar dungeon notification sound, the two of them opened their eyes.
What came into view was an underground tomb.
The location they were currently in was at the end of a tomb passage, and a straight passage appeared before Wen Yu's eyes.
Exchanging a glance with Li Jue, Wen Yu activated [Magic Shield] and took the lead, heading forward, while Li Jue activated [Trace Amount] and followed behind Wen Yu.
As they walked, Wen Yu asked Li Jue, "I haven't asked you yet, how did you do in the competition today? Did you make it into the top 100?"
The result was quite obvious; Li Jue hadn't been able to enter the world's top 100. Although his [Trace Amount] could counter most skills, his damage output was simply too low.
In front of the top 1,000 powerhouses in the world, at most, he could only manage a draw. Trying to win was as difficult as ascending to heaven.
"What about you, Brother Yu? You successfully made it into the top 100, right?"
"I didn't make it either."
"Impossible! How could you not have made it!" Li Jue's exclamation came from behind.
"Shh! Keep it down. Damn, we're in a dungeon; why are you shouting so loudly?"
"How could you not have made the top 100? With your strength, isn't taking first place a certainty?I"
"Since you already know that taking first place is a certainty for me, why ask such a brainless question?"
"..."
The two continued walking forward, and a tomb chamber appeared on their left.
The two walked inside, and as soon as they entered, a series of system notifications rang out.
"Ding!~"
"Discovered [spirit control belt]!"
"Discovered [Sigh Necklace]!"
"Discovered [Blade of Ruin]!"
"Discovered [Storm Longbow]!"
...
A series of system notifications appeared, and both Wen Yu and Li Jue were stunned, frozen in place.
"No monsters, just letting us pick up equipment? Is this a burial pit?"
Wen Yu didn't expect that one day he would be able to experience the feeling of grave robbing.
Picking up the equipment and checking them one by one, there were items ranging from epic quality down to black iron quality.
There were a full 28 pieces!
The highest was only epic quality, which couldn't catch Wen Yu's eye at all. Li Jue casually picked up two pieces of epic quality equipment and lost interest.
"Let's keep going."
The time that followed completely exceeded the expectations of both Wen Yu and Li Jue. Even Li Jue canceled his stealth state and just walked beside Wen Yu.
The two walked in the tomb passage for a full 40 minutes. During this time, they didn't encounter a single monster, but a dazzling array of equipment appeared before their eyes.
Tomb chambers crisscrossed, and inside, they were filled with burial items.
From the tomb chamber just now, Wen Yu had even picked up two immortal-grade items.
Wen Yu suspected that if they kept going down, would they start picking up divine artifacts...
"Translate this for me, Li Jue, what's the meaning of this dungeon?"
"How come I don't understand it? Is this here to give us a warm welcome?"
***
Chapter 168: [ Gale Sword Saint ]
Offering charity was clearly impossible, and letting Wen Yu and Li Jue pick up divine artifacts was even more out of the question.
Li Jue guessed that this dungeon should only have one final boss, which was the so-called [ Wind Emperor ].
To bring all the equipment out of the dungeon, they would likely have to defeat that final boss.
Furthermore, the strength of that final boss was likely terrifying; judging solely by the quality of the equipment, its strength was probably even above that of [ Akailer ].
The two continued walking forward. By the Time they reached the main tomb chamber, if it had not been for the space ring Wen Yu had crafted, they would not have been able to fit the looted equipment into their backpacks at all.
"We should be about to fight the boss. You should enter Stealth."
"Don't get one-shotted this Time."
Inside the main tomb chamber, there were no longer any "burial objects" to be seen.
A huge coffin lay right in the center. The ancient and intricate carvings around the coffin seemed to be telling the story of the tomb owner's former glory.
"Ding! ~"
"The [ Wind Emperor ] will revive in 30 seconds. Players, please be prepared!"
Wen Yu was also prepared. When the 30 seconds were up,
he activated his Magic Shield once again and cast his gaze toward the large coffin in the center of the main tomb chamber.
The coffin lid flew off, and a figure sat up from inside the coffin.
Wen Yu looked closely.
The Wind Emperor, who knew how many years of vicissitudes he had experienced, still retained his physical body.
Except for his skin, which was as pale as a corpse's, he was no different from a normal person in any other way.
From between his brows, Wen Yu could vaguely sense the "Emperor's aura" of the Wind Emperor, who had once been above ten thousand people!
[ Wind Emperor ] (immortal-rank boss)
Level: 100
Description: The Emperor of the Wind Clan from the ancient era. He failed to survive the last destruction of heaven and earth and eventually slumbered here. His current strength is only one-tenth of what it was back then!
HP: 8,000,000
Physical Attack: 360,000
Defense: 100,000
Skills:
Touch of Certain Death (General skill for immortal-rank boss. After activation, enters an Invincible state for 30 seconds. Enemies that launch an attack will have their HP immediately reduced to 0. Ignores death immunity.)
Wind-Treading Slash (Instantly penetrates designated units within a 50*50 meter range, launching an unavoidable triple slash attack against enemy units, dealing 3*200% physical damage to enemy units.)
Wind Tornado (Summons a tornado to sweep through a 100*100 meter range, dealing 100% physical attack damage per second to all enemy units within range, lasting 10 seconds.)
...
"This is a bit too unsolvable. 3*200% physical attack is over 2 million HP, and if you don't dodge the Wind Tornado, that's 3.6 million HP."
"The tomb chamber is only so big; these skills are practically guaranteed hits."
"This is still just one-tenth of his strength during his prime; I don't know how terrifying you would be if you truly revived!"
There were many skills. Wen Yu took a rough glance; the most unsolvable ones were [ Wind-Treading Slash ] and [ Wind Tornado ]. In the narrow tomb chamber, they were unsolvable skills.
However, Wen Yu knew that Li Jue should be able to survive. This boss did not have a full-screen one-shot mechanism after locking HP like other immortal-rank bosses.
As long as the damage was high, it was a being that could be instantly killed in one hit.
And Wen Yu had more than one skill that could instantly kill 8 million HP!
When the boss picked up the greatsword at his side and stood up from the coffin, Wen Yu was not prepared to play with him slowly anymore.
After activating Space Blessing, he instantly released a Space Wormhole.
The boss's HP dropped instantly! Before the 6 instances of shattering damage were even finished, when the boss's HP still had 1.6 million left, he was instantly sucked away by the spatial rift.
The immortal-rank boss could not escape the fate of being one-shotted either!
Accompanied by the system prompt, Li Jue also crawled out from underground.
"Ding! ~"
"Killed [ Wind Emperor ], EXP + 1,200,000"
"Congratulations, you received Gold Coins + 395,872"
"..."
That's it? Are you kidding me...
Wen Yu suddenly felt that this hour or so had been a bit of a loss.
Apart from getting two or three immortal-rank burial artifacts, there was nothing else that Wen Yu could use.
"Brother Yu! Brother Yu!"
"We got a drop!"
Li Jue called out to Wen Yu excitedly. Wen Yu turned around and saw that Li Jue was holding something that looked like a job change scroll.
"Ah, this... could it be the Wind Emperor's class?"
[ Gale Sword Saint job change scroll ]
Description: Obtain transcendence. After use, automatically change to the Hidden Class - Gale Sword Saint.
"Ding! ~"
"Detected [ Gale Sword Saint job change scroll ]. Do you wish to abandon current class [ Space Mage ] and change class to [ Gale Sword Saint ]!"
"It's actually another targeted hidden class change scroll."
"It seems our previous guess was wrong too. This wouldn't happen to be a guaranteed drop item after an immortal-rank boss dies, would it..."
Suddenly, Wen Yu felt that he might have sold the [ black magician job change scroll ] to Lin Sirong a bit too expensively...
The two came out of the dungeon, still unable to snap out of it for a long Time.
Taking stock of this haul, they had gained a total of 2 immortal-rank equipment pieces, 3 immortal-rank accessories, and various other dazzling equipment.
He handed everything except the immortal-rank items to Li Jue, letting him handle them himself.
"When you have Time, look around again to see if there are any other hidden dungeons with an immortal-rank boss."
"Only I can defeat these bosses right now. If it's really as we think, and this job change scroll is a guaranteed drop from an immortal-rank boss, then we aren't far from holding our next auction."
Wen Yu's gold reserves were in critical condition; he really needed an auction now to recoup some funds.
After chatting with Li Jue for a while, the two parted ways.
For the Time being, Wen Yu returned to the Novice Village to keep the rabbits company.
And Li Jue also began to continue wandering the world, searching for new dungeons.
——————
By the Time Wen Yu took off his helmet, the Time had already passed 12 midnight.
He had a match to play tomorrow, so Wen Yu wasn't planning on going up to the small rooftop terrace to "cool off" tonight.
He took a shower, lay on the bed, and opened the forum to see if there was any new information recently.
Besides the messages that were still pinned.
The hottest topic right now was about this World Tournament.
Of course, Wen Yu looked around and no one thought he wouldn't win the championship.
Posts like "Congratulations Time" had already flooded every corner of the forum.
"The match hasn't even started, and they're already popping champagne at halftime..."
From the recordings of various players, Wen Yu also saw all his main competitors for the tournament.
The first-place winners of each major region had already appeared before Wen Yu in video form.
[ Pierre ] still had damage that was off the charts, as always.
Although the little japanese were given a hard Time by Wen Yu, people like [ Sakurai Natsuki ] were still powerful!
Wen Yu also found the others on the [ World Level Ranking Board ].
Although [ Stab Your Chrysanthemum ] was someone who got one-shotted by Wen Yu, he was absolutely dominating in battles against other players.
And among them, what surprised Wen Yu the most was [ Ivankov Playing Bear ] from the [ White Bear Region ].
With high damage reflection paired with extremely high HP, just by standing there, others would not dare to attack him.
Wen Yu estimated that he should have no problem getting into the top three.
