Chapter 1417 – Shocking the Empire
From the mont the bell signaling the start of the match rang until the mont the system displayed its end, less than five seconds had passed. The match was so overwhelmingly one-sided that Falling Flowers hadn’t even had ti to scream before she transford into particles of light and disappeared from the stage.
At this point, Group Five’s stage had beco a smoldering ss...
“Huh?”
Looking at the stage, Zhao Yueru was montarily dazed. She struggled to believe that it had been her doing.
“What just happened?”
The audience watching Group Five’s battle wore dumbfounded expressions, their minds unable to process the unexpected outco.
Originally, everyone had assud that the fight was between two players of equal strength; they had never expected this outco.
...
“Triple-casting! Just who is she?!” Blue Phoenix stared at Zhao Yueru in shock.
Current peak magical-class experts were just barely learning to triple-cast, and Zhao Yueru could already triple-speed-cast. Even Blue Phoenix had yet to grasp that level of the technique. Even after entering the legacy space of Zero Wing’s Secret Spellcasting Technique, she had only grasped double speed-casting.
Moreover, based on the power of Zhao Yueru’s Spells, it was obvious that her Skill Completion Rates were very high.
“How many secrets is Zero Wing hiding?” Phoenix Rain couldn’t help but glance at Zero Wing’s room from her seat next to Blue Phoenix.
Zero Wing had previously revealed that it had powerful magical-class experts such as Violet Cloud, Aqua Rose, and Alluring Sumr. Now, the Guild had revealed Zhao Yueru.
...
Due to Zhao Yueru’s astonishing performance, the audience began to pay more attention to Zero Wing.
“How strong is Zero Wing?! It even has such a powerful Elentalist expert!”
“I had thought that Zero Wing’s only capable expert was the Sword King, Black Fla. Now, it turns out that the Guild has such a magical-class expert.”
...
After this match, the Black Dragon Empire’s players began to look into the Guild known as Zero Wing.
The mont they did, however, they flabbergasted.
They had never thought that Zero Wing would be Star-Moon Kingdom’s number one Guild.
“The this ranking competition is going to be interesting!”
“So, Zero Wing is pretty strong. We’ll likely see a change to the Black Dragon Empire’s top-ten Guild list.”
“Zero Wing should have no problems ranking among the top ten. However, getting into the top five will probably be a challenge. After all, the five first-rate Guilds in our empire have many powerful experts. Why would it be easy to surpass them?”
While everyone discussed Zero Wing, the various large Guilds turned their attention towards the Guild as well. They began to search for a thod to deal with Zhao Yueru.
Although Zhao Yueru’s ability to triple-speed-cast was powerful, she wasn’t undefeatable.
Following which, the spectators’ astonishnt grew as they watched one match after another, Zero Wing’s five representatives improving their battle records.
Fifteen consecutive victories... Twenty consecutive victories... Thirty consecutive victories...
It seed as if no one could stop Zero Wing’s representatives. Not even top adventurer reams and first-rate Guilds’ top-tier experts were a match for them. In the end, all five qualified for the final phase. Zhao Yueru, in particular, had displayed overwhelming power from start to finish.
On the other hand, so of the representatives from first-rate Guilds and top adventurer teams, who had been expected to make it to the final phase, were disqualified...
“Zero Wing is too aweso. All five of its representatives made it. Even the five first-rate Guilds couldn’t accomplish the feat.”
“I’ve heard that the Zero Wing Guild developing in the Black Dragon Empire is only a Branch Guild. If even the Branch Guild is this powerful, how much stronger is the main branch?”
“I think I heard that Zero Wing’s Branch Guild in Lake Heart City has been recruiting mbers. Once the competition is over, I must go and apply to join the Guild!”
Before anyone had realized it, Zero Wing had beco a rival for the Black Dragon Empire’s top five first-rate Guilds. Its fa in the empire skyrocketed.
...
“Guild Leader, are you sure about giving them so many All-rounded Devices?”
The outco of the competition had shocked Gentle Snow. She was very familiar with the standards of Zero Wing’s five representatives. Although their combat power had increased thanks to the weapons and equipnt Shi Feng had provided, the improvent was limited. I wasn’t possible for them to achieve such exaggerated results.
She might have understood if only Zhao Yueru had been victorious, yet despite their assignnt to the death groups, the other four representatives had won their matches as well. This was unbelievable.
Fierce Snake and Negative Life’s performances were particularly shocking. They had contended with Refinent Realm experts. In the end, they had relied on superior Basic Attributes and high Skill Completion Rates, barely defeating their opponents.
Gentle Snow had found this outco incredible. After all, she was fully aware of just how powerful a Refinent Realm expert was. Such experts should have no issues defeating non-Refinent Realm experts, even with 30% higher Basic Attributes. Furthermore, Fierce Snake and Negative Life’s Basic Attributes weren’t much higher than their Refinent Realm opponents.
The only explanation for their unexpected performances was the All-rounded Device.
Gentle Snow hadn’t expected such amazing results from the All-rounded Devices. They were so effective that they allowed Fierce Snake, soone who wasn’t even a Half-step Refinent Realm expert yet, defeat a Refinent Realm expert.
“Relax. While the All-rounded Device’s production is sowhat costly, we can make as many of it as we want.” Shi Feng hadn’t expected the item to be so effective either.
After fighting so many matches, Fierce Snake and the others had obviously improved. If they could continue fighting different Refinent Realm experts, it wouldn’t be long before then entered the Refinent Realm as well, becoming cornerstones for Zero Wing.
“As many as we want?” Gentle Snow was at a loss for words as she stared at Shi Feng’s calm expression. She felt as if this was the first ti she had t the man.
If it were possible to mass-produce the All-rounded Device, then with Zero Wing’s current foundations, they could nurture a batch of Refinent Realm experts in a short ti.
She would never have dared to dream of such a thing in the past.
...
After the competition’s initial phase ended, the true ranking competition that everyone had looked forward to began.
Unlike the initial qualifiers, participants that lost a match during the final phase would be eliminated, while those that won would proceed to the next round.
anwhile, to prevent the various large Guilds and adventurer teams’ representatives face off against their own, the system would try to assign them to different matches as often as possible. This assured that the various large Guilds and adventurer teams could collect the maximum number of points possible.
Aside from Zhao Yueru, Fierce Snake and the others were strong enough to rival Refinent Realm experts. In the end, they easy passed the first three rounds and ranked among the top 150 in the competition. However, three had lost the fourth round due to Refinent Realm expert opponents with Epic items. In the end, only Zhao Yueru and Negative Life had won their fourth matches in the final phase.
During the fifth round, a Refinent Realm expert with more than one Epic item had eliminated Negative Life. He had lost with little resistance.
“Guild Leader, Zero Wing is far more powerful than we had expected. What should we do now?” the Shield Warrior nad Lonely Castle asked Crimson Fox worriedly in Crimson Castle’s VIP room.
Although the two experts Nine Dragons Emperor had sent had made it to the fifth round, the other three representatives had been eliminated in the second match.
“What’s there to worry about? Didn’t you see Zhao Yueru’s next opponent?” Crimson Fox asked unhurriedly as he pointed to the virtual screen above the center stage.
“What?!” Lonely Castle was stupefied when he saw the nas on the screen. He was instantly elated.
Zhao Yueru’s opponent for the fifth round was Yi Luofei, the FFF adventurer team’s vice commander. She had the nickna Frost Empress and was one of the Black Dragon Empire’s Four Great Elentalists. The Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion had even offered her the position of vice commander over its main force to recruit her.
