67: All students unite!
One piece of equipment triggered the effects of two entries!
Now, not only does it add attributes, but devouring more can even result in new equipment!
Ye Ze felt as if the value of the equipment in his backpack had directly doubled.
Amidst his excitement, Ye Ze pondered the effect of the 'Equipment Destroyer':
“The higher the quality of the destroyed equipment, the greater the chance of obtaining high-quality equipment…”
“Then I’ll start by trying with the lowest quality ones.”
For his first test, he planned to see how high the probability of obtaining a legendary quality item was.
If this attempt failed, he could try again with the seven highest quality items to determine the range for legendary equipment drops.
Although he started with the lowest quality items, they were all one- and two-star epics!
Six epics were devoured by Panda one by one, and anyone else seeing this would undoubtedly feel a pang of heartache:
“Eat What You Eat—”
“Obtained: Strength +20, Fire Element Control +20%!”
“Obtained: Agility +18, Wind Element Control +18%!”
“Obtained: Spirit +9, Constitution +9, Lightning Element Control +18%!”
“…”
For items of the same type, like the current equipment, the more times they are devoured, the less the attributes increase.
It's like a bottle of cola; the first sip is always the most satisfying, but the pleasure gradually diminishes with each subsequent sip until the last one.
Of course, the increased attributes were still considerable.
Especially when the last piece of epic equipment was devoured…
“Equipment Destroyer—Seven pieces of equipment destroyed, new equipment obtained: Surging Waves!”
As the notification popped up, a golden light burst forth in front of Panda.
The golden light flashed, like a gift box being opened, and a short blade fell, sticking into the ground.
The blade of the short knife was deep blue, with a mysterious shimmering light flowing over its edge, like layers of surging ocean waves.
“Surging Waves”
Level: 15
Quality: Golden Legendary ☆
Attributes: Damage Multiplier 210%, Strength +40, Agility +40, Ignores Defense 30%
Special Effect: Each attack additionally comes with an arc-shaped wave slash, damage = (Strength + Agility) * 200%

A legendary equipment really dropped!
Ye Ze couldn't help but get excited, but considering the cost, it was reasonable.
Six epics, one excellent… that's over twenty million in market value!
“But at least it proves that roughly six epics can yield one legendary equipment.”
If this cost were for direct destruction, Ye Ze would feel a bit of heartache.
But since it was devoured by Panda, increasing attributes first, the equipment could be said to be a free gain.
This was a huge profit!
However, this short blade was not very suitable for his combat-type summoned beasts.
Ye Ze chose to give it to Squirrel…
This legendary equipment replaced the rare quality Crimson Demon Blade, further increasing combat power significantly.
Now, even a support-type summoned beast possessed extremely terrifying combat power.
In his backpack, the remaining seven pieces of equipment were no longer low-star epics; they were all three-star or higher!
“I wonder what kind of equipment will drop this time!”
Ye Ze handed the remaining seven pieces to Panda as well…
“Eat What You Eat—”
“Obtained: Constitution +25, Physical Damage Resistance +20%!”
“…”
“Equipment Destroyer—Seven pieces of equipment destroyed, new equipment obtained: Immovable as a Mountain!”
This time, the golden light revealed a piece of armor.
Its main color was bronze, with golden patterns in its metallic luster, resembling mountain textures, heavy and solid.
“Immovable as a Mountain”
Level: 15
Quality: Legendary ☆☆☆☆
Attributes: Defense +300, Strength +40, Constitution +60, Fixed Damage Reduction 100
Special Effect: Actively deploys a ‘Mountain Force’ shield, which can absorb 10,000 damage, significantly reducing lightning and water element damage.
Set (1/6)
————
Legendary four-star!
It had double the attributes of a high-star epic armor of the same level!
Moreover, this was actually a set item!
If a six-piece legendary set could be assembled, its set effect would undoubtedly be very powerful!
As for the ownership of this armor…
Ye Ze hesitated between Mantis and Panda, then ultimately chose Panda, who was designated as a Warrior.
With Panda's current attributes, he was almost at Tier 4!
At this moment, Ye Ze was preparing to search for the next wave of prey.
However, the third layer of the Ancient Battlefield had already opened…
…
“Current Remaining Participants: 40!”
“Third Layer Ancient Battlefield Space Opened!”
“Vanguard City Opened! Killing enemies grants double points!”
“Forty participants remaining!”
“Forty people eliminated so quickly?”
Duan Tianchen, the Captain of Central China's First Team, dressed in a crimson robe, couldn't help but frown.
Although their Central China First Team's overall points consistently held the top spot on the leaderboard…
He still sensed a hidden danger:
“On the scoreboard, the total kill points are so low, so why have so many people died?”
Wan Sen, a team member, asked in confusion.
After all, Ye Ze had killed nearly 20 people in a short amount of time, causing a severe discrepancy between points and casualties.
“Could it be that some danger has invaded the dungeon?”
“That shouldn't be…”
Duan Tianchen pondered, and as the third layer of the Ancient Battlefield opened, everyone's location changed again.
This time, the five members of Central China's First Team were actually teleported directly in front of the five members of Huabei District's First Team!
The two major strong teams were face to face!
Duan Tianchen interrupted his thoughts and looked at the opposing Captain, Chu River, whose narrow eyes were as sharp as a hawk's:
“It's you?”
“How about it, let me experience the power of the ‘Painter’?”
At this moment, Chu River, besides the giant tortoise beneath everyone, also had a soaring fiery dragon beside him!
“You think I'm afraid?”
Facing Central China, widely recognized as the strongest, Chu River's fighting spirit remained undiminished, and the ten people were poised for battle.
But just then.
Two figures suddenly teleported over…
“Don't fight yet, please don't fight yet!”
The imminent battle was suddenly halted by Liu Anran and Luo Yao, who had just arrived.
Chu River was stunned, and even Duan Tianchen was puzzled:
“Liu Anran? Where are your second team members…”
As a participating team from Central China, Duan Tianchen understood the strength of the second team.
With the combat power of Liu Anran and Cold Maple, even if they encountered multiple team attacks, they should have been able to retreat safely…
How could they be in such a state?
“Listen to me first! There's an Instructor in the dungeon, and his combat power is extremely unusual!”
“I suspect it's a special mission arranged by headquarters!”
Liu Anran began to explain the situation methodically and swiftly.
She had thought a lot on her escape route, especially about Ye Ze's strength, which was simply too exaggerated!
The only possible explanation… was that it was the work of headquarters or the military!
Coincidentally, Liu Anran had heard at headquarters that large-scale operations by Fiends from the Abyss were becoming more frequent…
Perhaps this was headquarters' way of testing their team's cooperative combat abilities!
It must be this way!
Liu Anran concisely explained her encounter and opinion… a person who can be a tactician usually has good eloquence.
“Therefore, all of us students should unite first!”
“Only if we cooperate first can we defeat him!”
Hearing her words, Duan Tianchen and Chu River both fell into deep thought…
…
On the other side of the Ancient Battlefield's third layer.
Fu Wanjun, with his blue hair, seriously spoke to Bai Wei, the Demon Warrior from East China's First Team, opposite him:
“So, do you understand?”
“The reason why the students are dying so quickly, and the kill points don't match up… it must all be the Instructor's doing!”
“If we don't cooperate and face that Instructor again, we'll definitely be eliminated!”
Around the two, their respective four teammates stood ready, and if the two Captains couldn't agree, a battle could break out immediately.
Bai Wei was silent for a moment, then asked a series of questions:
“That Instructor you mentioned, is he very strong?”
“He can instantly kill a Level 40 Fiend General.”
“How do you know?”
“I saw him twice with my own eyes in the Pollution Land and outside the dungeon!”
“Not lying to me?”
“I swear on my professional faith as a ‘Thunder Blade’!”
Upon hearing this, Bai Wei no longer hesitated. “Alright, I'll temporarily cooperate with you!”
“After we kill that Instructor, I'll settle the score with you.”
“That's more like it!”
Fu Wanjun felt much more relaxed, and the two bumped fists.
South China's First Team and East China's First Team officially allied.
…
Inside the monitoring department.
A group of high-ranking officials and managers had strange expressions…
“It was supposed to be a student confrontation dungeon.”
“How did it turn into a boss fight so quickly?”
