……

The above is the real-time ranking result for [The Realm of Innocence] as of 12:00 AM game time on that day. It is also the day with the biggest changes in the ranking since the dust settled on [Debate on Guilt].

Meanwhile, the article "The World Has Changed," hastily written by Weiwei, the editor-in-chief of the "Muddy Beach News," and simultaneously published on the official "Muddy Beach News" homepage outside the game and the "Mud Apple" newspaper inside the game, received widespread praise and exploded in popularity due to its objectivity, fairness, and detailed content.

In the article, Weiwei An wrote—

"This is absolutely a crazy day. According to reliable intelligence, Xinglong (Li Lei), the star player of the Crimson Constellation Club and known as the world's most famous professional gamer, has just broken through to the 'Epic Rank' in the game 'Innocent Realm'. As far as I know, this level is the second highest power level in the game after the 'Legendary Rank'. It is a chasm that ruthlessly blocks countless talented people. Even native NPCs in the game can enjoy the treatment of being the center of attention in most places if they have Epic Rank strength, thus reaching the pinnacle of life."

Meanwhile, according to the analysis of experts invited by this newspaper (including but not limited to well-known game commentator 'Big Fatty Ding', professional player 'Holy Light Old Wang' from the [Card Master] club, and 'Iron Paluru', deputy director of the logistics and technology department of the [Red Constellation] club), leaving aside 'Question Mark Guy', who has always been on the [Individual Combat Power Ranking] and [Comprehensive Strength Ranking] since the list was created, namely the mysterious person with the title of [Collapse Kingdom], and Cordova who is suspected of having an artificial body, the player Xinglong should be one of only three players in the entire [Innocent Realm] to have advanced to the Epic rank through normal means so far.

It's worth mentioning that Cordova is undoubtedly a true powerhouse. Regardless of whether his strength has a mysterious origin, he remains the strongest player I've ever seen. His mastery of his power is enough to prove that he deserves this title. In fact, I became a loyal fan of Cordova back during the "Debate on Inquiry" (laughs). Also, the title "The Dark Reaper" is the coolest I've ever seen (blushing).

Getting back to the main point, given that "Question Mark Guy" has never appeared in the public eye even once, and that his strength has indeed exceeded what ordinary people can imagine, I will temporarily list "Question Mark Guy" as someone with the same "extraordinary talent" as the Cordoba player. If I have any objections, please contact Weiwei An of [Muddy Tan Report]. You can find my email address through Muddy Tan Report.

So, after excluding our first and second candidates, the experts believe that both the mysterious anonymous third candidate and the champion team member 'Great Yin-Yang Master Gu Xiaole' who proved his strength in the [Debate on Guilt] entered the Epic rank after the debate, and it can be basically determined that they advanced normally based on their personal strength. It's just a pity that Mr./Ms. Anonymous has always insisted on only revealing the basic class, so it is difficult for us to see the name of their epic class, which is a regrettable thing.

In the aforementioned circumstances, Xinglong undoubtedly brought us a huge surprise and dispelled some players' doubts about 'professional gamers' during this period. Although we all know that the ecosystem of [Innocent Realm] is not as good as other virtual reality games, and even professional gamers find it difficult to adapt immediately, Xinglong still proved the worth of professional gamers. He instantly killed the overlord-level BOSS in the [Limited-Time Secret Realm] (this BOSS usually requires hundreds of elite players to prepare and then take 2-5 days to kill) upon advancing to the Epic rank. At the same time, he surpassed 'Great Yin-Yang Master Gu Xiaole' to regain the fourth place.

Here, Weiwei An also earnestly requests everyone to be more tolerant of our professional players. After all, rankings in the [Innocent Realm] don't represent everything. Professional players, led by Xinglong, have demonstrated the depth worthy of their 'profession', occupying a full eight spots on the [Individual Combat Power Ranking] homepage (there are twenty spots on the homepage in total, and I'm temporarily defining the 'Soul Douluo' from the [Burning Flame] guild as a professional player; if there are different opinions, you can understand it as seven spots). But as the saying goes, strength is common, but good fortune is rare. I think all players are happy to see a world full of opportunities, where they too may be among the strongest, aren't they?

Getting back to the main topic, after discussing the 'Epic Tier' section, another professional player from the [Crimson Constellation] also caused a huge stir today. That player is Scavenger, who represented [Crimson Constellation Team 2] in the [Questioning Battle - Team Battle] and is also the team leader and captain of Team 2.

Just now, the Scavenger player created a terrifying record: in just five seconds, he skyrocketed from 197th place on the individual power rankings and ultimately stormed into the top of the rankings, securing the eighth position.

It might seem unbelievable to some, but after gathering a lot of information (shamelessly calling many friends in the industry and begging for news), I discovered an astonishing fact: this unknown player, "Scavenger," was actually the original core member of the "Red Constellation" club, and also the original "First-Rank Star," known throughout the professional scene for his game ID "Divine Song."

To avoid taking up too much space, I won't go into detail about the contestants in the "Divine Comedy" competition here. If you are interested, please click the ※hyperlink※ to read "The First First-Magnitude Star, A Genius Who Fell Like a Meteor." Although it was written by me three years ago and my writing is a bit immature, I can guarantee its authenticity.

In conclusion, knowing that the 'Scavenger' contestant is very likely the same 'Divine Song' contestant from back then, this miracle seems to make sense, and we have reason to expect that [Red Constellation] will bring us even bigger and more surprises in the future. Next, let's continue to analyze the other strong players on the leaderboard.

Futaba has made tremendous progress during this period, surpassing both Kokushi Musou and Lucerne to firmly hold the top spot below Epic rank. If nothing unexpected happens, she should have already reached the level of 'half-step Epic' (meaning she is certain to break through to Epic rank, but is still lacking something). The positions of the latter two are also stable. However, considering the two players' extremely powerful [Domain] and [Realm Marble] (a very difficult-to-awaken powerful ability, for details please click the ※hyperlink※ "Xiaowei's Talk - My Views on [Realm Marble] & [Domain]"), it is still unknown whether they have taken that 'half-step'.

So far, there hasn't been much change between the bottom of the top ten and the top of the bottom ten on the homepage. But if we keep looking, we'll notice a few interesting facts.

First, the vice president of the [Burning Flame] guild, 'Soul Douluo', successfully reached the thirteenth place, second only to the most beautiful swordsman (online vote) Mu Xuejian. Meanwhile, 'Lancelot', who has the same class as him, [Dark Knight], and belongs to the [Chaotic Evil] faction, slipped to the very bottom of the lower tier and became the new gatekeeper of the homepage after the rise of the Cleaner player.

Interestingly, given that Po Douluo and Lancelot share the same class and faction, and that Po Douluo even managed to upset Lancelot despite a significant ranking difference, their victory became the best proof that 'rankings don't represent strength.' So, is Po Douluo's current ranking increase a sign of further improvement, or is the system ranking system simply reaffirming its authority? This is clearly a question worth discussing and pondering.

Finally, we find two names that are both unfamiliar and familiar on the homepage (and even in the top 100). Unfamiliar because they have almost never been in the top ranks before, and familiar because both of them have shone brightly in the "Debate on Guilt" and left a deep impression on us.

First of all, just by looking at his title of "troublemaker", you can tell that he must be a 'Mo' with rich adventure experience. He performed very well in the "Debate on Inquiry". Although he lost to 'Anonymous' who was later eliminated by Night Song in the "Individual Battle" and lost to the main team of "Red Constellation" in the "Team Battle", he still left us with a very deep impression.

Whether it was his feat of taking on the Fishing King Club in a one-on-one match in the team competition, or his later duel with the Awakening Dragon player, we have seen Mo's strength. In fact, I think that if he hadn't encountered the Crimson Constellation and the Awakening Dragon player so early, he could have gone much further.

It's worth mentioning that we've already seen that player 'Mo' is a [Radiant Knight], but he hasn't fought alongside his mount in either individual or team competitions. This brings us to the [Debate on Injustice] rule, which has been criticized by countless knights, summoners, and beast tamers (highly intelligent game-native beings cannot be included in the competition). However, there are rumors that the next [Debate on Injustice] will allow this condition to be changed. Let's look forward to seeing how Mo performs when he can fight alongside his mount!

Another familiar yet unfamiliar face is a member of the champion team of the [Debate on Guilt - Team Battle], who became famous in the game as the [Saintess of Dawn] and became a well-known figure early on. Backed by the powerful Holy Church Alliance, she is the beautiful, gentle, and powerful Chen Wangyu.

As a reader who followed a post from the early days of the game, I know very well that Chen Wangyu is not an ordinary lucky person. In fact, I suspect that the reason she is favored by the gods is because of her kind and benevolent heart. You can click on the ※hyperlink※ to view "Misha's Diary: Authorized by the Original Author and Proofread by the Mud Forum" to learn more about the story of this holy lady.

I think many readers still remember the dominance that Chen Wangyu displayed in the team battle against the [Broken Wind Bird] club. In the words of a top-tier healer like Shengguang Laowang, at least at this stage, Chen Wangyu's 'healing' role is a complete dimensional reduction attack, an equal and overwhelming dimensional reduction attack on all healers.

However, we also know that healing ability does not have a high weight in the [Individual Combat Power Ranking], which means that many healing players, despite being very strong, can only be active on the overall ranking. But this time, Chen Wangyu went directly to the homepage!
I think this must be related to her title of "Twin of Light and Shadow," but the specifics are probably unknown to anyone.

In conclusion, based on the current [Personal Combat Power Ranking], we can see that the biggest bottleneck in [The Realm of Innocence] has gradually begun to be broken through. Coupled with the limited-time dungeons that everyone is currently conquering, this game is probably about to enter the next stage. We sincerely hope that we can witness more exciting stories and tales.
