“Ding~ Congratulations on defeating the professional from Liuchuan Province, [Sui Feng]. Glory Points +300!”
“Ding~ Congratulations on defeating the professional from Tianjing, [Yun Tianhe]. Glory Points +300!”
“Ding~ Congratulations on defeating the professional from Dragon City, [Yinuo Qingcheng]. Glory Points +300!”
“Ding…”
Zhang Yue was on fire!
In the subsequent matches, he swept through the top professionals from various provinces, and every opponent he encountered was one-shot killed!
Moreover, in each match, Zhang Yue didn’t even have to lift a finger; he easily defeated his opponents using only the Shadow Predator!
Zhang Yue became famous overnight, drawing special attention from audiences nationwide.
“Who is this Zero? How is he so fierce? He just used a pet to one-shot our top expert from Liuchuan! My whole family is shocked, including my mom!”
“What’s so special about your top expert from Liuchuan? In Dragon City, he’s at best a second-rate fighter. Even our top guild leader, Yinuo Qingcheng from [Dragon Clan], lost to him! My god, Yinuo just knelt down…”
“Oh my! Why did you have to make my goddess Zhan Yue cry, Zero? I hate you!”
Currently, Zhang Yue has achieved nine consecutive victories.
Yet, he wasn’t happy at all.
Because there was only one match left, and he still hadn’t met the person he wanted to see!
Forget it, whatever!
Zhang Yue started the final match.
Wow!
White light descended, and Zhang Yue returned to the arena.
This time, his opponent was a man in a golden mage robe… a Beast Tamer!
In Zhang Yue’s live broadcast room, the audience was in an uproar:
“These days, there’s actually a Beast Tamer who made it to the national challenge? Unbelievable!”
“?? Isn’t Zero also a Beast Tamer?”
“What? Isn’t Zero a Mage?”
“Mage, my ass! My Zero God is clearly a Warrior, you fake fan! Please leave quickly!”
Looking around.
The man in the golden mage robe didn’t hide his equipment effects; his whole body was covered in dazzling golden gear, blinding the eyes of hundreds of thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room.
A lean physique, a straight posture, and a calm demeanor.
Every inch of him exuded power!
In the Temple of Destiny Guild Group, even Wu Haotian and the others were sweating for Zhang Yue.
Wu Haotian: “This guy’s aura is as strong as mine. He seems like a hidden expert. Boss, be careful and don’t let your guard down!”
Lin Tian: “A Beast Tamer who made it to the national challenge must be extraordinary. Guild Leader, be cautious!”
Buye Hou: “This guy is decked out in gold, and his gear seems to be of a high star level. His strength might be on par with yours, Guild Leader.”
“Ding~ Match successful. Your opponent this time is the professional from Tianjing, [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon]!”
As the system notification ended, Zhang Yue was ready to finish this last match quickly.
Suddenly, the Beast Tamer, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, mouthed something to Zhang Yue!
In Zhang Yue’s live broadcast room, the audience was puzzled:
“Did he leave his voice at home? What did that guy say? Can anyone read lips and explain?”
“Easy, an eighth-level lip reader here to explain. He said: Hello, pineapple!”
“Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t understand! Would a normal person greet someone like that? He clearly said: Grandpa, hit me!”
At the same time, Zhang Yue’s heart skipped a beat!
This guy, he finally encountered him!
It was clear that this Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, was the one who had repeatedly written to Zhang Yue, knowing that Zhang Yue was Xiu Luo!
At this moment, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon said to Zhang Yue, “Use all your strength to fight me. If you lose, you know the consequences.”
If Zhang Yue failed, the opponent would reveal Zhang Yue’s identity as Xiu Luo to the public.
Realizing this, a hint of killing intent appeared in Zhang Yue’s eyes…
As the countdown ended.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon opened his pet space and summoned two Rare Grade pets!
A blazing lion and a golden-armored scorpion!
Both pets radiated golden light, appearing exceptionally powerful!
The audience in both live broadcast rooms held their breath.
“This Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon seems stronger than the previous nine people!”
“His two pets are both Rare Grade! Rare Grade pets are so rare these days!”
“This time, it seems like we’ve encountered a real dragon. The god might kneel!”
Nine out of ten people were worried about Zhang Yue.
However, the reality was unexpected.
The moment the battle officially began, Zhang Yue’s summoned Shadow Predator transformed into a bolt of lightning, piercing through Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and his two pets.
The next second.
The blazing lion and the golden-armored scorpion both fell dead.
White light flashed.
“Ding~ Congratulations on defeating your opponent [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon]. Glory Points +200!”
“What the hell?”
“Is it over just like that??”
“I thought he was some high-level expert, but it turns out this guy is a clown!”
“How did this guy make it to the advanced national challenge?”
Even Zhang Yue was a bit puzzled.
Damn it…
They died too quickly, and he hadn’t even asked the questions he wanted to!
Couldn’t you put up a bit of a fight?
You’re making me look dumb…
Outside the arena.
Ouyang Ling’er couldn’t hold back after watching the battle and sent a message on Feixin to a friend marked as [BOSS]: “Boss, you’re really weak…”
“Among the ten opponents our Guild Leader defeated, you died the fastest…”
BOSS: “Hahaha! You don’t understand a thing! This is exactly the effect I wanted! Hahahaha!”
Ouyang Ling’er: “…”
“Boss, are you crazy?”
BOSS: “Give me Zero’s Feixin contact. I want to talk to him personally!”
As the match ended completely.
The national advancement list was also announced.
From the city-level qualifiers to the national challenge, Zhang Yue topped the new national server rankings with a perfect score of 4800!
Next, Zhang Yue, along with 99 other newly qualified professionals from across the country, will represent the Dragon Kingdom in the World Finals!
Every year, the professional tournament distinguishes between new and veteran professionals.
A week later, the veteran professionals will start their matches first, and after their matches conclude, it will be the new professionals’ turn!
Thus, after the national challenge, there was a period of calm.
And Zhang Yue, as the new national server’s top strongman, attracted attention from major guilds, families, and forces nationwide.
He quickly became a household name!
Without Zhang Yue’s personal contact information, top family leaders from various provinces in the Dragon Kingdom posted recruitment ads online—
“Brother Zero, the top of the national server, are you interested in developing with our Beihai [Thousand Slashes] Guild? We can offer 15% of the guild’s resources to fully support you in becoming a Tier 0 powerhouse of our Dragon Kingdom!”
“What does Thousand Slashes mean? Are they trying to steal people from our [Peerless] Guild? Zero, come to our Beihai’s number one Peerless Guild, name your salary, and choose any level of golden gear you want!”
Even the highest leader of the Dragon Kingdom’s top guild, [Dragon Clan], and a Tier 0 powerhouse, the [Ice Emperor], personally invited Zhang Yue!
Joining the Dragon Kingdom’s top guild, Dragon Clan, is a dream for many professionals!
However, Zhang Yue wasn’t interested in relying on others.
After receiving the 10 million prize for first place in the advancement tournament through the professional tournament’s official channels.
At that moment, Zhang Yue received a Feixin friend request message: “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon requests to add you as a friend!”
