Zhang Yue sat on the living room sofa, browsing the internet on his phone to check the Global Professionals Tournament.
He discovered that registration would start at 8 AM tomorrow and would close three days later, with the competition officially beginning!
Time was running out, yet the guild still only had three members…
Just then, Ning Tiantian came out of the bathroom, wearing a pink cat-themed nightgown, her hair wet and fragrant from shampoo.
Ning Tiantian really loved pink.
Combined with her naturally petite figure, she looked incredibly cute and soft.
Feeling a bit self-conscious, she explained to Zhang Yue, “I was staying at my friend’s place, but her mom got tired of me freeloading and kicked me out. I don’t have any money, and I have nowhere else to go…”
Zhang Yue pointed to the side bedroom and said, “You can sleep there. Remember to register for the Professionals Tournament at 8 AM tomorrow.”
“Oh, and the hairdryer is in the drawer. Dry your hair so you don’t catch a cold.”
With that, Zhang Yue went into the master bedroom.
After a night of turmoil, Ning Tiantian felt very down.
Zhang Yue’s kindness brought a rare warmth to her cold heart!
The next morning, at 8 AM.
Whether on TV, phone news, taxi ads, or building screens, everything was broadcasting the same message—
“Dear viewers, the 100th Global Professionals Tournament is about to begin. Let’s fight for glory!”
All major social media platforms were buzzing:
“Last year, twelve professionals from our Liuchuan Province made it through the national challenge to the world finals. Let’s hope we can achieve even greater glory this year!”
“Brothers, witness this: I, Cheng Gang, swear that if I don’t make it to the provincial championships this year, I’ll livestream myself eating shit while standing on my head!”
“I don’t ask for much; I just hope to make it into the top 100 of the city-level qualifiers. Heaven, please match me with some weak opponents!”
“Our Anning City hasn’t had a professional make it to the national challenge in nearly ten years. Let’s hope for a miracle this year!”
Zhang Yue logged into the Global Professionals Tournament official website and registered.
Soon, the verification information came through.
[Professional: Zero]
[Competition Location: Dragon Kingdom – Zhening Province – Coastal City]
[Representing Guild: Temple of Destiny]
Confirm registration?
Confirm.
[Information stored. The Global Professionals Tournament city-level qualifiers will begin in 73 hours and 50 minutes. Professionals, please prepare.]
At this moment, a message popped up in the guild chat.
Wu Haotian: “Damn, I almost registered with the Infinity Guild…”
In a small private hotel in Coastal City, Wu Haotian was munching on a steamed bun he bought from a street vendor while chatting in the [Infinity Guild Chat].
Furiously, he said, “Just wait, I’ll show you that losing me is your biggest loss!”
With that, Wu Haotian left the Infinity Guild chat.
Zhang Yue came out of the master bedroom, ready to go downstairs to buy breakfast.
He happened to see Ning Tiantian coming out of the side bedroom.
“Did you register?”
Ning Tiantian nodded, “Yes!”
“Let’s go have breakfast, then get online to level up.”
Ning Tiantian hung her head, looking a bit dejected, “I don’t have any money…”
“My treat.”
Ning Tiantian immediately brightened up, “Great!”
“I want a hand-grabbed pancake!”
After breakfast, they each returned to their rooms and went online.
In the Dark Hall, Zhang Yue sent a message in the guild chat: “You two team up for the same quest and report back.”
In the Fourth World, professionals in a team could receive the same series of quests.
So, Wu Haotian first met Ning Tiantian in the Light Hall and couldn’t help but exclaim, “I didn’t expect you to be a beauty!”
“Too bad I already have someone I like, and there’s no room for another woman in my heart, or I’d definitely pursue you!”
Ning Tiantian was so scared she didn’t dare team up with Wu Haotian.
Until Zhang Yue sent a message: “If Wu Haotian bullies you, let me know.”
Only then did Ning Tiantian team up with Wu Haotian, receiving the same [Dark Nest] quest, and then they met up with Zhang Yue in the level 35 Black Dragon Nest map.
Zhang Yue joined the team and, without a word, locked onto the flying black dragons and started attacking!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Three single-target S-rank skills combined, instantly killing a level 35 black dragon.
Behind him, Wu Haotian, who hadn’t even had a chance to act, widened his eyes, “Damn! Is he even human…”
Zhang Yue summoned the Dark Skeleton King.
This time, with the Flame Knight sharing the damage, Zhang Yue increased the intensity, having both himself and the Skeleton King use taunt, attracting the aggro of seven black dragons!
The Skeleton King used a Shadow Sword Array to trap them all.
Zhang Yue’s Hell Judgment descended from the sky.
Combined with a series of single-target skills, the health bars of the black dragons plummeted!
With the Skeleton King and Wu Haotian each sacrificing half their health, the seven black dragons were instantly slaughtered!
Except for Zhang Yue, who had already reached level 35 and needed 1.2 million experience points to level up.
Ning Tiantian, who was level 30, and Wu Haotian, who was level 32, both saw their experience bars visibly increase!
After waiting for a cooldown, Ning Tiantian used healing spells to restore the Skeleton King and Wu Haotian.
The three of them attracted another six or seven black dragons and killed them in one go!
Roar! Roar! Roar!
With the sound of dragon roars, one black dragon after another fell from the sky, their bodies piling up like mountains!
Other solo professionals in the Black Dragon Nest map, who were also on dragon-slaying quests, were dumbfounded by the scene!
“What profession is that guy? A dragon-slaying master?”
“Holy shit! Killing level 35 dragons like they’re chickens, terrifying!”
In just one day, Wu Haotian and Ning Tiantian completed six quests in a row!
The quest rewards and monster-killing experience made Ning Tiantian level up twice to level 32.
Wu Haotian also reached level 33!
Zhang Yue allocated all his experience to the Apocalyptic Black Dragon, bringing it to level 30 and completing its second class change!
The Apocalyptic Black Dragon was a ranged physical DPS, similar to an archer, so it used archer equipment.
Zhang Yue went offline and spent around 50,000 in the Otherworld Marketplace to buy a set of 3-star level 30 archer equipment and several D-rank archer skill books.
Because they all had white attributes, they were cheap.
He then upgraded them, turning the white trash gear into top-tier gold equipment!
The skills went from D-rank trash to S-rank top-tier!
He equipped the Apocalyptic Black Dragon with everything.
At this moment, the Apocalyptic Black Dragon truly possessed “apocalyptic” power!
[Apocalyptic Black Dragon] (lv30 second class change Rare Grade)
[Physical Attack: 1280]
[Physical Defense: 520]
[Magic Defense: 480]
[Health Points: 5580]
[Mana: 2340]
[Skills: Apocalyptic Dragon Flame (S-rank), Apocalyptic Dragon Breath (S-rank), Apocalyptic Dragon Explosion (S-rank), Explosive Combo (S-rank), Explosive Piercing (S-rank)…]
[Special Effects: Black Dragon Bloodline (lv2), World Destruction (lv2)]
The lv2 Black Dragon Bloodline effect (increases all attributes of the Apocalyptic Black Dragon by 30%) significantly boosted its attributes, making its attack power almost surpass Zhang Yue’s!
So, Zhang Yue took the Apocalyptic Black Dragon to the wild for some practical combat.
Using Infinite Taunt, the Dark Skeleton King attracted the aggro of four giant dragons, then trapped them with the Shadow Sword Array.
The next moment.
Roar!
With a fierce dragon roar, the Apocalyptic Black Dragon, flying low, opened its massive jaws and spewed a dark red flame, engulfing the four Light Tribe Dragons in the sword array.
It then covered them with the S-rank Apocalyptic Dragon Breath.
The S-rank Apocalyptic Dragon Explosion, S-rank Explosive Combo, and S-rank Explosive Piercing transformed into beams of death and energy balls, fiercely striking the Light Tribe Dragons.
A series of damage numbers continuously popped up above the dragons’ heads—
-3325!
-3718!
-3559!
-3490…
Compared to Zhang Yue’s damage, it was still a bit lacking.
But compared to most level 30 second class change archer professionals, who generally didn’t exceed four-digit damage, the Apocalyptic Black Dragon’s firepower was already explosive!
While the Apocalyptic Black Dragon weakened the Light Tribe Dragons, Zhang Yue delivered a wave of powerful S-rank skills, easily finishing them off!
