"That's the fifth one."
Guan Tong saw that he was ranked first and, satisfied, retracted his Shadow.
He had just completed another challenge: "Greatest Underground Depth."
The creator of this challenge probably worked in some deep underground facility or had an item or ability that let them burrow into the earth. That's why they created it, thinking their first-place spot was foolproof.
But they certainly never imagined that Guan Tong's Shadow, in its ethereal state, had no physical form and was immune to pressure, allowing it to extend indefinitely into the earth's depths.
Taking first place in this challenge was a piece of cake for him.
And so, on the afternoon of January 2nd, the second day of the new rules, he had taken first place in five challenges.
These five challenges were almost all related to distance and speed—a domain Guan Tong had deliberately chosen. Using his Shadow and Body Shifting abilities, he held an almost absolute advantage in this field.
