Shining Guild's Rookie

On the spectator platform, Cui Xianglong turned his head to look at Chen Ming, "How many consecutive wins are you aiming for this time?"

Chen Ming held up three fingers, "Three consecutive wins."

"Three consecutive wins." Cui Xianglong wore an amused expression, "Quite confident, aren't you."

Chen Ming scratched his head, not holding anything back, "A while ago, Zhao Feng was lucky enough to learn an S-rank Skill called Elemental Ignition."

"It allows skills to carry a fire paralysis effect."

"It has miraculous effects against melee bosses like the Ogre Warrior."

"According to the previous arena rules, the first three Gladiators are all melee, so achieving three consecutive wins shouldn't be a problem."

Sure enough, as the battle began, the Ogre Warrior was spun around by Zhao Feng, and in less than 3 minutes, the notification of victory arrived.

The opponent in the second stage was an Orc Berserker, possessing extremely high burst damage; any ranged Professional who dared to appear within the Orc Berserker's attack range would be instantly killed on the spot.

But Zhao Feng's Elemental Ignition was highly effective at restraining melee fighters; once the fire paralysis effect triggered, the Orc Warrior started trembling in place as if having an epileptic seizure.

The second round was also won without any suspense.

The third round was somewhat thrilling because the opponent was a Goblin Assassin, whose stealth opening nearly killed Zhao Feng instantly.

Fortunately, the team's Shield Warrior provided timely support.

After three rounds concluded, Zhao Feng stood in place, panting heavily.

Three consecutive high-intensity battles were too exhausting.

He wanted to continue the challenge, but he hadn't forgotten what Vice President Chen Ming had told him: if he encountered a melee fighter in the fourth round, he could still fight, but encountering a ranged opponent meant certain defeat.

After considering it, Zhao Feng chose to end the challenge, and each of the five Professionals received 5 pieces of Level 25 Gold-grade equipment sets.

Lin Yuan watched the whole process, and regarding these people's performance, he had only one word: weak.

Too weak.

Things that could be killed instantly were made so complicated. Without even looking, Lin Yuan could imagine that most of the subsequent battles would be the same; boring and monotonous.

Not as interesting as scrolling through short videos.

Before Zhao Feng and his group could walk out of the arena, a hooligan-like youth brought people to block the arena exit, "Giving up already? Are the Professionals of Tianfeng City all this cowardly?"

"Satisfied with just five pieces of Gold-grade equipment? Have you never seen Gold-grade equipment before?"

The youth had a lollipop in his mouth and didn't even look Zhao Feng and the others in the eye while speaking.

Zhao Feng's expression darkened, "Zheng Xiaolong, if you have shit in your mouth, keep it shut; don't go spraying it on everyone you see."

"You motherf..." Zheng Xiaolong spat out the lollipop, just about to start cursing, when the Vice President of the Dawn Sword, Chen Ming, rushed over first, "Qin Weimin, control your people; don't let them bite everyone like a mad dog."

Hearing Chen Ming call his name, Qin Weimin said hypocritically, "Xiaolong, don't lower yourself to their level."

"They are from the countryside; it's normal for them to be ignorant of the world."

With his Vice President speaking, Zheng Xiaolong snorted coldly, "Country bumpkins, don't think winning three rounds makes you something special."

"Today, I'll let you see what a true genius is."

Entering the arena, Zheng Xiaolong chose the challenge mode.

Why not choose deathmatch? He was arrogant, but not stupid; if he couldn't win, wouldn't he just die for nothing?

While Zheng Xiaolong's team was fighting, Chen Ming brought Zhao Feng back to Lin Yuan's side.

"Those idiots from the Flash Guild, they really know how to act tough," Chen Ming said indignantly.

Cui Xianglong's expression was also very ugly, "Damn it, just because their guild leader lost to Liao Chen in the last City Fighting Tournament, they're holding a grudge against the entire Tianfeng City over such a small thing."

Lin Yandong clenched his fists and said, "The Flash Guild has been a bit excessive lately."

"But their motivation isn't as simple as just losing to Liao Chen."

"They won't stay in Shanhe City, but insist on coming to Tianfeng City to snatch the first kills of Dungeons."

"In the last month, they have already taken the first kills of two Nightmare difficulty Dungeons."

"For them to dare to do this, there must be support from the Shanhe City Professionals Association behind them."

Lin Yandong analyzed calmly, "Last year, Shanhe City wanted to bring Tianfeng City under its jurisdiction; if it weren't for Meng Zhan of the Demon Suppression Army disagreeing, Tianfeng City would have already been renamed Tianfeng County."

"Since they couldn't do it openly, they started playing dirty," Lin Yandong snorted coldly, "They want to use the Flash Guild as a vanguard to disgust us, forcing you all to have conflicts with them, and even leading to fighting."

"This way, the Shanhe City Professionals Association can openly initiate a City Challenge Tournament and seize the opportunity to annex our Tianfeng City."

Luo Yushang frowned, "As far as I know, the president of the Shanhe City Professionals Association is named Zheng Yaodong, right? He only took office in Shanhe City last year; is he really this aggressive?"

"A City Challenge Tournament cannot be initiated just like that."

Luo Yushang picked up the phone and called the mayor of Shanhe City, Lan Baiwan, "I am Luo Yushang, and my current position is the mayor of Tianfeng City."

"I heard that your Shanhe City wants to initiate a City Challenge Tournament against Tianfeng City?"

"It's best if you haven't, but if you have, I welcome it. I personally would very much like to experience Mayor Lan's brilliant methods."

"Fine, I understand."

Hanging up the phone, Luo Yushang's cold voice reached everyone's ears, "As long as I am here, Tianfeng City will remain."

On the other side, the moment Lan Baiwan hung up Luo Yushang's call, he summoned Zheng Yaodong, "From now on, all actions related to Tianfeng City are to stop immediately."

"Cancel the preparations for the City Challenge Tournament immediately."

Zheng Yaodong was puzzled, "Mayor, our plan is already nearly half complete."

"As long as we follow the plan, Tianfeng City will inevitably become Shanhe City's possession."

"Why stop?"

"Why?" Lan Baiwan took out his phone, "Do you know who the current mayor of Tianfeng City is?"

"Luo Yushang."

"Vice President of the Peerless Guild, 'A Thought Blooms' Luo Yushang."

"When the City Challenge Tournament happens, who is going to face her on the ring? Me, or you?"

Zheng Yaodong was stunned, "Luo Yushang."

"Why did she go to Tianfeng City to be the mayor?"

"That is not for you to ask." Lan Baiwan waved his hand, "Don't forget to notify Feng Jun of the Flash Guild and tell him not to be so arrogant."

"If he provokes Luo Yushang or other people from the Peerless Guild, he'll be in big trouble."

Zheng Yaodong nodded and left alone.

On the way, Zheng Yaodong kept thinking about why Luo Yushang went to Tianfeng City to be the mayor, "Mu Tianxing is in Tianfeng City!"

"If I remember correctly, Tianfeng City has a Dungeon called the Forest of Elves, which can produce a potion that can delay aging."

"That explains it."

Zheng Yaodong raised his hand, and a black communication rune with a skull mark appeared in his hand.

He wrote the message that Mu Tianxing might be in Tianfeng City on it, and the communication rune instantly turned into a ball of fire.

Zheng Yaodong's eyes burned with heat, "Once Mu Tianxing dies, the Lich will surely be reborn by possessing his body, and by then, the entire Tianfeng City will be razed to the ground."

"The long-sealed ancient ruins will surely descend upon the Blue Planet once again."
