[On the Other Side]
Wolong, Hidden Dragon, Xuan Lan and the others were worrying about Zhang Yue every single moment.
"It's already been three days, why hasn't Master come out yet?"
Hidden Dragon said, "Logically speaking, the Hell Gladiator Arena is located within the World 32. If he really fell into the Demon Domain of the God of Desire, at most he would be teleported to a hidden map within the World 32. With Master's strength, he should be invincible at least within the Forty Worlds, right?"
"A mere World 32, just a tiny hidden map, how could it trap him for so long? With his strength, he should've already torn the Demon Domain apart by now."
As Hidden Dragon's words just fell.
Wolong said, "So, unless Master was never trapped in the Demon Domain."
"You mean Master was killed by the Three Main Gods?", Hidden Dragon said, "Then I'd rather believe he was trapped in the Demon Domain. Master's Demon Contract is an ancient divine artifact. I specially studied this treasure of his some time ago. The strength of this treasure is indestructible. There's currently no force in the outside world that can break its buff effect. Which means, if he was really killed, he definitely wouldn't suffer the effect of permanent death, but would return to the safe zone to resurrect."
"Unless, within this cycle, he's already run out of uses of the Resurrection Scroll. But looking back at his actions over the past week, did you see him die?"
"The Three Main Gods indeed have no ability to ignore the Demon Contract and kill Zhang Yue," Xuan Lan suddenly spoke, "But this time, Zhang Yue's main opponent is Asura."
"None of us can measure this power inside Asura's body."
Just who possessed Asura, now occupying Asura's body and commanding the Three Main Gods?
For this question, the three had already studied countermeasures countless times, thought of countless enemies, even Hidden Dragon calculated out the little crayfish he swallowed alive a hundred years ago, wondering if the crayfish had mutated, gained consciousness, and thus took over Asura's body?
But in the end, they could never get a definite conclusion.
"Don't know where Master is right now. After so many days without eating, is he starving to death…", Once these words were spoken, everyone present fell silent.
"Master's situation, we'll think of another way. Rest first."
"Tomorrow, we still have a tough battle to fight."
A hint of killing intent surfaced in Hidden Dragon's eyes, "Tomorrow, let that brat Elfa see the strength of our Three Elders of Xuanming!"

To catch up with Elfa, Chen Zijin stayed up all night.
Always fighting on the front line of the Arena Level-8, even maintaining just a 10% profit rate, she still worked hard to catch up to the number one Elfa.
Because she couldn't be sure whether Zhang Yue was alive or dead right now.
If alive, that was naturally best, she only hoped he could come out on his own in the end.
The worst case was that Zhang Yue was already dead and had to be revived with the Resurrection God Stone.
Therefore, Chen Zijin realized: if she couldn't force the Eight Great Nations to withdraw their troops and give up the Gate of Immortality through counter-offensive pressure, then there was only one other way to save Zhang Yue.
That was: seize the championship of the Hell Gladiator Arena and obtain the Mythical-class profession scroll reward.
Become the fourth Mythical-class professional in the world, and with her own strength directly crush the Eight Great Empire troops guarding outside the Gate of Immortality, enter the Gate of Immortality, and personally obtain the Resurrection God Stone.
To personally obtain the Resurrection God Stone to revive Zhang Yue, for Chen Zijin, that would be even more fulfilling.
So, she would at all costs seize first place.

Time froze at three in the morning.
Chen Zijin was still streaming live, fighting in the Arena Level-8.
Even the viewers in the live room started feeling sorry for her.
["Miss, you've been online for a whole day and night without logging off, hurry and rest a bit! If you suddenly die from overwork, I'll feel bad!"]
["Yeah, the streamer is working too hard! Although seeing you work so seriously makes you more charming, you also need to pay attention to your health!"]
Of course, the live room was not full of straightforward fans.
There were also some haters from the Eight Great Nations.
They kept active in the bullet comments, trying to use verbal attacks to break Chen Zijin's last bit of mental defense.
["Don't waste your strength anymore. No matter how hard you try, you can't surpass our Beacon Nation's Lord Elfa."]
["Lord Elfa is invincible in the world, and you think you can defeat him? Wishful thinking!"]
["Even if Lord Elfa gives you a few hours, you still absolutely can't beat him. That's the gap, understand?"]
Chen Zijin didn't look at the bullet comments at all.
She just focused on the arena.
With her own relentless effort, she finally pushed her score to 300.
Seeing that the gap to first place Elfa was just over 200 points.
But just then, Elfa's score, which had been stuck at 525 points for several hours, suddenly started rising again.
Chen Zijin realized: the Elfa who had been offline resting for a few hours was back online.
The bullet comments in the live room once again flooded with cold ridicule.
["Lord Elfa is online again, you have no chance now!"]
["Too bad, even given a chance you couldn't catch up! Our Lord Elfa deliberately logged off to sleep, let you have so long, and you still couldn't close the gap!"]
["Your effort is really pitiful! Hahaha!"]
Chen Zijin didn't feel angry or disappointed because of the bullet comments.
But because in just three minutes after logging in, Elfa's score increased by a full 10 points, her heart trembled.
At this moment, a surge of despair suddenly rushed up in her heart.
'No matter how hard I try, I really can't surpass him?"
'But if I can't take the championship, can't become a Mythical-class professional, then I can't enter the Gate of Immortality, can't obtain the Resurrection God Stone, can't revive Zhang Yue.'
'What should I do, what should I do!'
Under the double blow of despair and grief, Chen Zijin was exhausted.
In the end, she couldn't hold on.
The live room suddenly went black.
Chen Zijin ended the stream.
The sudden scene startled the viewers still watching the stream.
["What's going on, why did the streamer suddenly cut off? Did she encounter a ghost??"]
["Oh my god! Did my goddess get targeted by a ghost too?"]
["Don't talk nonsense. A streamer targeted by a ghost's screen will turn snowy before disappearing. Cappuccino's screen just went black, not snowy. She obviously closed the stream herself. She wasn't targeted by a ghost, just logged off to rest. Don't believe or spread rumors…"]
———
After Chen Zijin logged off.
Ouyang Ling'er, Liyue, Ning Tiantian, and the others who had been glued to her live room all finally couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"My god! The auntie finally logged off! She almost wore us to death too."
On the other side.
After Chen Zijin logged off, she went to Zhang Yue's exclusive guild president's office…
