33: Chapter 33 A Strange Phenomenon from the Sky, A New Dungeon Record! A Miracle Created by Two People!

[Jincheng City Trial Dungeon Clearance Leaderboard]

Nightmare Rank:

1. [Yun Feiyang] Team, Members: 5, Clearance Time: 3 minutes 21 seconds. Current Year Ranking: 1, Historical Ranking: 1

2. [Zhang Jian] Team, Members: 2, Clearance Time: 5 minutes 48 seconds. Current Year Ranking: 1, Historical Ranking: 2

2. [Long Weiguang] Team, Members: 5, Clearance Time: 5 minutes 52 seconds. Current Year Ranking: 1, Historical Ranking: 3

The team of Zhang Jian and his partner was impressively ranked second on the overall leaderboard.

But they were only 4 seconds faster than the third-place team.

Wang Fei was a bit unconvinced.

"Brother Jian, to think there's actually a team faster than us?"

Zhang Jian rolled his eyes at him.

"Is it possible that you're just too slow at luring monsters?"

Wang Fei gave a sheepish smile.

That was true.

This [Yun Feiyang] team was a full five-person squad.

They likely had an agility-type Professional among them, specifically responsible for luring monsters.

Then, high-burst damage Professionals would clear the monsters all at once.

Although the strength of their damage-dealing Professionals was likely not as great as Zhang Jian's.

The team's overall efficiency was slightly higher than the two of them.

It was only natural that their speed would be faster.

Wang Fei suddenly felt guilty and lowered his head, not daring to speak.

So in the end, I was the one holding Brother Jian back.

However.

Zhang Jian didn't really care about this ranking.

As long as they had a result, that was enough.

Instructor Wang Weidong, who was waiting on the side, was moved to tears.

It wasn't easy!

After being an instructor for over a decade, one of his students had finally managed to enter the Nightmare Rank leaderboard and reach the top hundred.

And.

It was their first time, and they had gone straight to second place.

Only trailing the overall first place by a tiny margin.

The look he gave Zhang Jian was filled with nothing but amazement.

One had to know.

This first-place team was no simple matter.

The captain, [Yun Feiyang], was the only one in Jincheng City in the last twenty years to have an Awakening of a Divine-Grade profession.

Among the team members, there were two top-tier Professionals and two rare Professionals.

They could be called the strongest five-person team in Jincheng City's history.

Nowadays.

[Yun Feiyang] had long since risen to Rank 89, a famous existence among high-level Professionals who had completed their third transition.

He could be considered the strongest person in the history of Jincheng City.

And right under his own nose.

Zhang Jian, bringing Wang Fei along, a seemingly shabby two-person group.

Had actually only performed slightly worse than that legendary figure.

Did this not mean that Zhang Jian's future strength also had a chance to approach [Yun Feiyang]?

Thinking of this, Instructor Wang Weidong's eyes glazed over.

He actually had the chance to mentor a big shot?

Goodness!

The ancestors must be smiling upon him!

This result was too strong!

In reality, the two could already use this clearance result as their internal school grade to participate in the Professional Unified Examination.

But Zhang Jian suddenly thought of something.

Although this result was good, it didn't have an overwhelming advantage.

After all, during the Professional Unified Examination, he and Wang Fei would be separated.

If Wang Fei's performance was average, then their final calculated score would still make it hard to Rank very high.

A top-tier Professional University was not guaranteed.

It would be better to.

Simply improve this result further, to build a more solid foundation for Wang Fei.

Even if he performed poorly in the Unified Examination, he should still be able to get into an ideal university.

When he voiced this thought, Wang Fei immediately hugged Zhang Jian tightly.

With teary eyes, he said.

"Brother Jian, if you keep doing this, I'll have to call you Godfather..."

Instructor Wang Weidong didn't quite understand Zhang Jian's intention, but Wang Fei knew it in his heart.

With Zhang Jian's current strength, he could easily go into the wild to farm some level-teens monsters, or go to the Abandoned Furnace dungeon again, and easily reap huge rewards.

Farming this trial dungeon again was completely a waste of time, and the gains wouldn't justify the losses.

Zhang Jian saying he was willing to farm it two more times was entirely to help Wang Fei.

As for Zhang Jian's idea, Instructor Wang Weidong was quite happy with it.

He was also looking forward to seeing if, with two more chances, Zhang Jian could improve this record even further.

Narrowing the gap with Yun Feiyang.

Or even... surpassing it!

And soon, he would know the answer.

After the two entered the dungeon again, they came out after a short while.

4 minutes 17 seconds!

An improvement of 1 minute and 31 seconds from last time.

It was now only 56 seconds away from Yun Feiyang's record!

Instructor Wang Weidong looked excited.

Zhang Jian, however, furrowed his brows.

He muttered, "It seems it's still a bit slow."

After saying that, he took Wang Fei and turned to enter the dungeon again.

Instructor Wang Weidong was a bit dumbfounded.

He wasn't satisfied with this result?

Inside the dungeon, the two of them completely let loose.

They directly changed their strategy.

Splitting into two paths, each of them began to lure monsters.

Then they gathered together, and Zhang Jian cleared the monsters all at once.

In the dungeon, Wang Fei did not stop walking.

He was always on the run, afraid that if he ran too slowly, he would delay the clearance speed.

Zhang Jian also put away his relaxed attitude and ran with the same efficiency.

Today was the last dungeon opportunity, and also the last one before the Unified Examination.

Give it their all, and leave no regrets!

Relying on this extreme monster-luring method, the two cleared the dungeon without stopping.

Just as Zhang Jian and Wang Fei's figures emerged from the dungeon.

A clap of thunder suddenly resounded in the sky.

A golden light rose from thin air and circled around the light screen in front of the dungeon.

Attracting the surrounding people to look over.

At the very top of the leaderboard on the light screen, a line of bold text appeared.

1. [Zhang Jian] Team, Members: 2, Clearance Time: 3 minutes 11 seconds. Current Year Ranking: 1, Historical Ranking: 1

The two glaring "1" rankings left the scene in silence.

Instructor Wang Weidong witnessed all of this with his own eyes and was instantly choked up.

Tears of joy!

He could guarantee that this was the most glorious moment of his life!

His most cherished student was the first in Jincheng City for this year.

And even the first in Jincheng City's history!

What an honor this was.

Others were a bit confused.

"Was that sound and light just now a high-level Professional releasing a skill?"

"Are you stupid? There's a barrier in the city, how could it be a skill!"

When someone confirmed that this was a new dungeon clearance record, a phenomenon from the heavens.

Only then did they turn their incredulous gazes toward Zhang Jian.

"This couldn't be someone with the same name, right? Is there anyone else in Jin City named Zhang Jian?"

"So it turns out, a big shot was actually by our side?"

"No wonder he didn't care for the weapon in Ye Wenjie's hands; it turns out he really had a better one!"

"Didn't you guys notice the blind spot? Two people, the whole team only has two people!"

"Oh my god! Two people clearing a record faster than a full team, doesn't that mean Zhang Jian is more powerful than Lord [Yun Feiyang]?"

As soon as his words came out, the scene boiled over.

"Lord Yun Feiyang only took twenty years to stand at the Peak of Huaxia. How many years do you think Zhang Jian will need?"

"You can't compare like that. Yun Feiyang is a Divine-Grade Professional, he is by nature the most top-tier favored son of heaven."

"It's a pity, the Swordsman profession has too low a ceiling. I'm afraid this is the most glorious moment of Zhang Jian's life!"

More and more people gathered around, looking at the updated data on the leaderboard, all clicking their tongues in wonder.

Some were amazed, some were envious.

And some were skeptical.

But unlike before, no one dared to openly disrespect Zhang Jian anymore.

They knew that even if Zhang Jian's future development wasn't as good as Yun Feiyang's, his current results were solid.

With this clearance record as an internal school grade, he was already standing in the top tier of Jincheng City and even the entire Long Province.

Even if he performed poorly in the Professional Unified Examination, at the very least, a key university was a sure thing.

As long as he performed slightly normally, he would be able to get into a top-tier Professional University.

And this was a goal that almost everyone present didn't even dare to imagine.

The change in the atmosphere at the scene did not affect Zhang Jian.

He and Wang Fei were operating their personal terminals, preparing to set this dungeon clearance result as their final internal school assessment grade.

But the moment they submitted it.

It was automatically rejected.
