Zhang Yue not only knew how to break the Sword Shadow technique but was also familiar with the Sword Emperor’s moves and combat routines.
His understanding of the Sword Emperor profession seemed even deeper than Luo Chen’s!
At that moment, Luo Chen felt an inexplicable fear towards Zhang Yue.
Seeing Zhang Yue effortlessly defeat Luo Chen with just a simple Fireball spell left Ling Ke’er and the three members of Radiant Xinghe in utter shock and disbelief.
“Is this guy really a Beast Tamer? Since when do Beast Tamers use staffs like that??”
“His skills and awareness are actually stronger than a Legendary Grade professional like the Sword Emperor?!”
In the eyes of the public, the Beast Tamer profession was considered a no-brainer, merely controlling pets to fight, requiring no personal skill.
However, Zhang Yue wielded his staff like a greatsword, displaying micro-control on par with Moonmark, the top micro-control god of the Dragon Kingdom, leaving countless onlookers in awe.
Who would have thought that there could be such an impressive Beast Tamer in this world!
Su Jinyan looked at Zhang Yue and murmured, “So this… is your true strength!”
Even the “Dragon” that her father had spent fifty million to invite from Hidden Dragon Mountain couldn’t handle Zhang Yue, and Tian Xin’er was standing there, staring at her as if mocking her.
Ling Ke’er stomped her foot in frustration.
“Useless! You’re all useless!”
Radiant Sky said from the side, “Miss, it’s not that Senior Luo Chen is useless.”
“Can’t you see? It’s that Zero is too strong!”
“Before, we thought it was just good equipment and high damage, but in the recent battle… his awareness and control, to put it mildly, are comparable to our Dragon Kingdom’s Tier 0 professionals, like Moonmark, Ice Emperor, and Seraph!”
Ling Ke’er didn’t care about any of that; she only knew her goal wasn’t achieved, so she was angry: “Stop making excuses for your uselessness! You’re all trash, every one of you!”
Women are indeed unreasonable!
Radiant Sky had no choice but to change the subject: “Miss, the Sword Emperor has been defeated, we should retreat quickly!”
Despite her anger, Ling Ke’er could see the situation clearly.
She glared viciously at Tian Xin’er in the distance, thinking: This time you’re lucky, but next time, I’ll make sure you pay!
She didn’t even care about the defeated Luo Chen.
Just as Ling Ke’er turned to leave, a deafening dragon roar echoed, and the Apocalyptic Black Dragon descended from the sky, blocking their path!
Turning back, Zhang Yue appeared behind them.
Ling Ke’er, both furious and resentful, pointed at Zhang Yue and shouted, “What does Tian Xin’er have that I don’t? I’m prettier than her! I have a better figure! My family background isn’t worse than hers! Why do you like her and not me!”
At this moment, Liu Yao raised his hand and said, “Well, let me be fair. With my extensive experience with women, Tian Xin’er is just a tad more attractive! As for the figure, I can’t comment without seeing it. How about you take off your clothes and let me judge?”
Wu Haotian glanced at Liu Yao: “Brother, when it comes to being a pervert, you take the cake!”
“I can’t compare!”
Zhang Yue then said to Ling Ke’er, “Someone as selfish and self-centered as you only loves yourself.”
“Why should I like you? Do you even deserve it?”
The double blow from Liu Yao and Zhang Yue made Ling Ke’er almost burst into tears.
Tian Xin’er cheered from behind, “Well said! Perfectly said! Zhang Yue, that was awesome!”
After saying that, Tian Xin’er even made a face at Ling Ke’er.
Ling Ke’er’s temper flared, and she started crying. She said to Zhang Yue, “If you have the guts, don’t interfere. Let me fight Tian Xin’er one-on-one and see who’s stronger!”
Tian Xin’er was up for it: “Bring it on, you think I’m afraid of you!”
Thus, the battlefield was handed over to Tian Xin’er and Ling Ke’er.
Ling Ke’er thought smugly: Tian Xin’er, let’s see how you fight my Dark Mage!
Both were Rare Grade professionals, a Glimmer Assassin and a Dark Mage, theoretically evenly matched.
But Ling Ke’er overlooked one thing: a Mage dueling an Assassin was like an egg hitting a rock!
She arrogantly said, “Without Zero’s help, I’ll crush you!”
With that, the two began their fight!
The result was predictable.
Ling Ke’er missed her skills and failed to take down Tian Xin’er before she got close, giving Tian Xin’er the chance to approach.
Once close, with the high burst damage of a Glimmer Assassin, Tian Xin’er easily one-shot Ling Ke’er with a combo!
Ling Ke’er stared in disbelief at Tian Xin’er.
Before turning into white light, she vaguely heard the onlookers’ discussions:
“Who would have thought this Tian Family girl is not only beautiful and has a strong family background but is also so powerful!”
“Yeah, it seems like she and our Zhening Province’s newly crowned top expert Zero are a perfect match, a couple made in heaven!”
“That Radiant Guild girl is just inferior!”
With a flash of white light, Ling Ke’er disappeared with resentment and unwillingness.
Radiant Xinghe and Radiant Sky couldn’t escape the Apocalyptic Black Dragon’s wrath either and were turned into a midnight snack!
Unfortunately, they weren’t even enough to fill its teeth.
For a moment, Tian Xin’er couldn’t control her emotions and happily jumped into Zhang Yue’s arms, hugging him tightly: “Zhang Yue, you protected me again, thank you!”
Such a scene made others envious.
Only Su Jinyan turned away, feeling a bit lost, not daring to look any longer.
The next second, Zhang Yue gently pushed away the soft and warm body in his arms and said, “You’re welcome, it was nothing.”
The first time was mainly to save Su Jinyan.
The second time was purely self-defense.
But in Tian Xin’er’s eyes, she always thought Zhang Yue was protecting her, even if it meant opposing the Radiant Guild, one of the three major families in Tianjing!
At this moment, Zhang Yue took out the Dark Set he had replaced earlier from his storage space and handed it to Tian Xin’er: “This equipment belongs to you.”
Tian Xin’er smiled and said, “No need! Once given, there’s no taking it back!”
Despite her words, Zhang Yue still returned the Dark Set to Tian Xin’er.
If he needed money, Zhang Yue had ways to earn it, rather than relying on others’ charity.
Of course, unless the person giving money was Ling Ke’er~
Unbeknownst to him, this action made Tian Xin’er like him even more!
Not only was he brave and intelligent, but he also didn’t covet benefits and was upright.
Such a guy was one in a million!
Seemingly thinking of something, Zhang Yue turned to Tian Xin’er and said, “By the way, I need your help with something.”
Seeing the person she liked asking for her help, Tian Xin’er readily agreed: “It’s no trouble! What do you need me to do? Just say it!”
“Help me clear my Red Name…”
From the beginning, Zhang Yue was either clearing his Red Name or on his way to clear it…
After killing dozens of Radiant Guild members, Zhang Yue had accumulated a lot of Sin points.
Without the help of the Infinity Guild, he didn’t know how long it would take to clear them all!
So, Tian Xin’er immediately contacted Infinity Phantom to bring people over.
At this moment, Wu Haotian suddenly asked, “Boss, what about that guy? Should we kill him?”
Following Wu Haotian’s gaze, they saw the Sword Emperor Luo Chen, now with seventy percent of his health restored, standing there.
Zhang Yue looked at Luo Chen and walked towards him.
Luo Chen didn’t activate his Sword Shadow, seemingly understanding that his opponent’s strength was on a completely different level. No matter how hard he resisted, he couldn’t win.
When Zhang Yue was ten meters away, he stopped.
He said to Luo Chen, “Your master is Hidden Dragon, right?”
Luo Chen was stunned: “How do you know…”
“If you get the chance, say hi to your master for me.”
“Oh, and ask him when he’s going to pay back the money he owes me for the wine.”
With that, Zhang Yue turned and walked away.
“Let’s go, leave him be.”
Although they didn’t know what Zhang Yue was thinking, since he had no intention of killing Luo Chen, the others naturally had no such thoughts either.
After all, even if they did, the Sword Emperor’s strength wouldn’t allow them to act on it.
Besides Zhang Yue, who else could defeat Luo Chen?
So, Zhang Yue and his group left.
Watching Zhang Yue’s receding figure, Luo Chen subconsciously touched his head, which Zhang Yue had knocked on multiple times, a strange glint in his eyes…
