Under Zhang Yue's relentless oppression and retaliation, the mbers of the two guilds, Glory and Chen Army, completely lost their minds.
Not only could they not even step out of the safety zone, but they also had to endure a wave of online criticism.
Gradually, many of them couldn't take it anymore and ended up leaving the guilds.
So were even forced to leave Tianjing altogether...
Unable to contend with Zhang Yue, the two guilds turned on each other.
"Chen Army, your guild leader is truly despicable. It's because we trusted your nonsense that Glory ended up so miserable."
"Damn it, you're the useless ones—don't bla us."
"At first, Zero agreed to stop targeting us after we paid Glory's compensation, but because of you, now no matter how much we offer, it's useless."
Like rats crossing the street, both Glory and the Chen Army were shouted at by everyone.
After all, these two guilds had always been known for their poor character, often bullying others in Tianjing.
Many people had suffered at their hands but dared not speak out due to their powerful family backgrounds.
Now that people finally had a chance to see them fall, anyone who spotted mbers of these two guilds on the streets wanted to pick up a slipper and smack them across the face.
Glory Unmatched, Glory Firmant, and Glory River thought leaving Glory would keep them safe.
But even so, they couldn't escape punishnt.
The three disguised themselves, hiding their IDs and pretending to be passersby as they left the city to complete world missions.
Suddenly, they were surrounded by a group of random players.
"You think leaving the guild and hiding your IDs ans no one will recognize you?"
"Surround them! Don't let them escape! Send their location to the Heavens Hall and let their guild leader, Zero, deal with them."
The three of them sighed in unison and simply gave up resisting.
Before long, instead of Zhang Yue, another group arrived.
It was Lin Tian, the Thunder Mage, and Wu Haotian, the Fla Knight, leading a group of people.
Seeing this, Glory River almost cried. "Do you really look down on us this much? You won't even bother to co in person?"
"At this point, we have only ourselves to bla for our arrogance."
Just as the three thought Lin Tian and his group were about to make a move against them, Lin Tian suddenly spoke:
"Our guild leader asked to relay a ssage—are you interested in joining Heavens Hall?"
Hearing this, the three exchanged glances and quickly responded, "Yes! Yes! Absolutely interested!"
"But," Lin Tian adjusted his glasses with a finger and added, "there's a one-month trial period first. During the trial, each of you will get 20,000 salary. If you perform well, you'll officially join next month."
Without hesitation, the three blurted out, "No problem."
After all, Zhang Yue deciding not to hold them accountable was already a blessing.
Joining Heavens Hall? That was a dream co true.
They had wanted to leave Glory and join Zhang Yue's guild for a long ti, but they were always worried Zhang Yue wouldn't accept them.
Now they understood—Zhang Yue spared them because they hadn't participated in the recent joint operation between Glory and the Chen Army.
They had withdrawn from Glory beforehand, and that decision had saved their lives.
This ti, Zhang Yue was resolute.
He had given Glory and the Chen Army a chance, but they squandered it.
If they wanted to destroy Heavens Hall, how could Zhang Yue let them off the hook?
From the ti Zhang Yue cleared the "Night of the Underworld Wedding" dungeon to three days later, Glory had been forced to disband their newly ford guild.
As for the Chen Army, their leader, Chen Jun, couldn't withstand the external criticism, the pressure from Zhang Yue, and the demands of the guild's senior mbers.
After all, Chen Jun was rely the leader of the newly ford branch of the Chen Army.
The core of the Chen Army was still controlled by the veteran professionals and elders.
They pinned all the bla on Chen Jun:
"What use are you? Under your leadership, the guild has beco a ss."
"If the forr leader, Chen Long, were still here, he'd definitely do better than you."
In the end, Chen Jun voluntarily resigned and left the Chen Army.
At this mont, Chen Long officially revealed his identity, returning to the Chen Army as the "forr leader of the Chen Army" and a "World Championship participant."
He took over as the new leader of the Chen Army.
Although an old leader had returned, as the saying goes, "A new broom sweeps clean."
After Chen Long returned, the first thing he did was summon all the guild's elders for a eting.
Sitting in the leader's seat, Chen Long declared, "I have a way to save our guild."
The gathered elders weren't hopeful. "What's your plan?"
Chen Long confidently replied, "We'll transfer 30% of the guild's shares to Zero."
The elders were disappointed. "We've already tried negotiating with him. Even if we offer 30%, he won't agree."
Chen Long responded, "I'll negotiate with him myself."
Following the arrangents previously discussed with Zhang Yue, Chen Long had a guild official prepare a contract transferring 30% of the shares. He then delivered it to Zhang Yue, who readily signed.
When Chen Long returned with the signed contract, the elders were stunned.
"It... it worked?"
"He really won't target the Chen Army anymore."
"Chen Long, you're amazing! I knew you wouldn't let us down!" The Chen Army's chairman, Chen Cheng, bead with joy.
Later, Chen Long ssaged Zhang Yue:
"Big brother, I didn't expect you to be so honorable, refusing to take even a cent of the 30% shares. You're truly a man of principle."
Zhang Yue: "???"
"Who said I didn't take them?"
Chen Long froze.
"No one told ?"
'Damn it! Those old guys were lying through their teeth.'
Chen Long hurriedly ended the conversation. "Big brother, I have a eting. Let's talk later!"
Afterward, he quickly logged off.
As one of Tianjing's three major families, even the smallest branch of the Chen Army was worth billions.
Zhang Yue effortlessly acquired 30 billion and naturally kept his promise not to suppress them further.
After all, the main goal of targeting the Chen Army was to treat them as a cash machine.
A one-ti payout of 30 billion was far more satisfying than squeezing out millions over ti.
What initially could have been resolved with tens of millions ultimately cost 30 billion—thanks to Chen Jun's "glory."
In just a month, Zhang Yue went from a broke loser who couldn't afford 600-yuan rent to a billionaire worth 30 billion.
Since his rebirth, Zhang Yue felt like money was an inexhaustible resource—he simply couldn't spend it all.
———
Elsewhere.
After leaving the Chen Army, Chen Jun wasn't ready to give up.
At night, amidst a heavy downpour, he stood alone on the street, his bloodshot eyes filled with hatred.
"I admit that this is my own doing."
"But Zero, if I've fallen to this point, don't think you'll have it easy either."
With that, he pulled out his phone and made a call.
"Mr. Xu, it's , Chen Jun."
"I have so bad news: my plan has failed."
"However, if Zero isn't eliminated, he will beco a significant threat to your country in the upcoming World Championship. I hope you can help take him down—it's in your best interest too."
Chen Jun stood in the rain, holding the phone to his ear, waiting for a response.
"Mr. Xu? Why aren't you saying anything?"
He glanced at his phone.
"Damn it! The battery's dead!"
