Global Coming: Farming with my sister-in-law in the end times

Chapter 740, fourth round passed, champion fighter title obtained.

[Successfully passed the Trial of the Strongest: Round 3]

[Trial Rewards: Ancient Golden Treasure Chest *1, Ancient Golden Coins *100]

……

Cao Xing successfully passed the third round of trials.

the other side.

Assam, Sarah, and Isabel all encountered situations similar to Cao Xing's.

They also encountered an attack from two or three strong opponents of the same level, and it was a targeted lineup.

Assam was surrounded by two mages and a shield warrior in a triangle.

Light and dark magic exploded around him.

The heavily armored shield warrior stood like an impenetrable wall, blocking his escape route.

Assam's health was dropping at a visible rate, and even the Frostwolf was constantly letting out angry roars!

"Roar--"

...

...

Sarah's situation became even more perilous.

Two legendary heavy-armored knights charged in turn like mobile fortresses, giving her no chance to unleash her power.

Meanwhile, a legendary assassin with equally rich combat experience was lurking in the shadows.

Whenever she tried to slip into the shadows, she would always be forced out of sight by a cunning glint of a blade.

Immediately following was the fatal piercing of the knight's lance!
After several such incidents, Sarah was forced to keep dodging.

...

...

Although Elisa had just broken through to the Hero level, she was facing an attack from three other powerful individuals of the same level.

A hero-level archer, a shieldbearer, and a swift swordsman.

This is also a lineup used to fight bosses.

The shield guard pressed forward relentlessly, like a mobile fortress, his thick tower shield completely blocking her escape route.

The Swift Swordsman became a blur, his blade constantly slicing past her!

The most deadly threat came from the archers in the distance. Every arrow that pierced the air was precisely aimed at her vital points, and even interrupted her attack several times!

"Ugh! That bastard, bullying Captain Elisa just because he outnumbers her!"

"Wait here..."

Before she could finish speaking, another arrow struck her shoulder, causing Elisa to let out a strange cry of pain!

"Waaah! Stop shooting at me! Captain Elisa was wrong!"

"My lord! Save me!"

Elisa was beaten so badly that she ran away with her head in her hands, her body riddled with arrows.

Unlike Cao Xing, they don't have many trump cards at their disposal.

Legendary combat skills, and even hero combat skills, cannot be used lightly.

After all, they still need to keep their trump cards up to deal with the challenges ahead.

Fortunately, the group had a series of powerful blessings bestowed by Cao Xing, which allowed them to recover nearly 20 health points per second.

At this moment, all the powerful figures unanimously adopted the same tactic.

That is, to use one's own powerful recovery ability to stall the enemy first.

Then, with their powerful attacks, they defeat the enemies one by one.

Gradually, the tide of the battle began to turn.

Assam's Frostwolf tore through the mage's throat, and Sarah's Deathblade pierced the knight's armor.

Elisa seized the opportunity and unleashed a Frost Shot that pierced the archer's chest.

As time went by, one opponent after another fell at their feet, their targeted formations were broken, and the pressure was greatly reduced!
The outcome of the battle that followed was a foregone conclusion.

Before long, everyone successfully passed the third round of trials.

...

...

[Attention, trial participants! The fourth round of the Trial of the Strong is about to begin.]

The difficulty of this round of trials will increase again; please be prepared.

[Countdown: 10...]

【9...】

……

Upon seeing the notification, Cao Xing looked ahead with a serious expression: "The fourth round is about to begin."

"Once I pass this challenge, my name will be recorded on the stone tablet outside."

At this moment, he seemed to remember something, "I remember that the fastest person to pass the fourth round so far is Rosie from Chuanhaibao, who took six minutes."

"I wonder if I can break her record?"

Thinking about this, Cao Xing became somewhat eager to try it out.

[Countdown: 0...]

...

As darkness receded like the tide, the curtain of the ancient gladiatorial arena was lifted.

Cao Xing remained in the center of the arena.

However, the extremely cold environment he created in the previous trial has disappeared, and the place has become empty again.

Cao Xing frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "The frost path left by the ice-covered land can normally last for an hour."

"It vanished in less than a few minutes, so it seems it was either eliminated by the arena's power or simply teleported me to another dimension..."

He paused, then chuckled, "But it's alright, we're already in the fourth round, and I haven't even used my trump cards yet."

"This time we can confidently throw a wave of attacks."

"Next, let's see who our opponents are in the fourth round."

Thinking of this, Cao Xing raised his head and quickly looked ahead.

Although he had made preparations, his pupils still shrank when he saw the scene before him!
There was no targeted enemy as expected.

Five fully equipped legions were prominently displayed before them, ready to go.

On the left are three hundred elite archers of the empire, each arrow carrying an extremely strong penetrating force!
Three hundred heavily armored giant wolf knights stood in the center, their three-meter-long spears gleaming coldly!
On the right side, there was a magic array composed of three hundred mages, with elemental energy violently surging in the air.

In addition, there are three hundred elite warriors and one hundred shadow assassins!
The total number of people in these five legions has reached 1300!
Even more terrifying is that each army is led by a legendary legion commander!
The soldiers behind them were also quite strong, all of them being level 100 elites.

With the added legion synergy effect, the combined strength of these five legions could even destroy a country!

Upon seeing this, Cao Xing immediately narrowed his eyes.

"Good heavens... is it really that exaggerated?"

"They actually mobilized five legions to deal with a mage like me. Are they really treating me like a world boss?"

Meanwhile, the legion commanders were already prepared for battle!
They drew their weapons and raised their arms, shouting, "For glory! Crush the enemy!"

"Knights, charge!"

The next moment, the knights launched a charge, their iron hooves shaking the entire arena violently.

The archers drew their longbows to their fullest extent, and a rain of arrows poured down from the sky!

The mages brandished their staffs, unleashing a massive torrent of magic!

The shadow assassin vanished, transforming into countless deadly black rays that closed in...

"Rumble..."

"Wow!"

I felt the overwhelming attack coming from all directions.

Even Cao Xing would be severely injured if he didn't die from taking so many attacks at once.

At this critical moment.

Cao Xing's transparent wind wings flapped, and he soared into the sky!

He was actually going to charge into the air despite the massive attacks!
"Crack! Click!"

The three-layered holy shield shattered in an instant, and dozens of damage numbers exceeding 100,000 appeared above Cao Xing's head, causing his health to plummet by more than ten million!
However, he continued to climb despite the rain of arrows and magical projectiles!
After sacrificing 15 million lives, he successfully broke through the fire blockade zone.

Cao Xing glanced at his own injuries.

Numerous magical attacks blasted scorched patches of skin from his body, and arrows pierced his chest.

In addition, the sword energy of those swordsmen left bloody marks on his body.

"call……"

Cao Xing exhaled lightly, and a terrifying burst of cold air instantly froze the wounds.

He said in an icy voice, "Next, it's my turn."

The next moment, Cao Xing flicked his right hand, and the frost-white robe on his body disappeared, replaced by a dark blue robe.

It is indeed the [Ancient Winter Robe (Orange)].

The three-piece set effect was triggered again after equipping it at this moment.

Although it's not nearly as good as the stat boost from the [Great Lich's Frost Soul Robe (Legendary)].

However, this three-piece set has a set effect called "Winter is Coming"!
【Winter is Coming: When activated, it will lower the temperature by 20°C to 30°C within a 3000-meter diameter area, accompanied by heavy snowfall.】

Increases the ice-elemental attack of all friendly units by 30% and their attack range by 30% for 120 seconds...

...

Cao Xing immediately used the special effect and whispered, "Winter... is coming!"

The temperature in the entire arena suddenly plummeted, and heavy snow began to fall from the sky.

"Whoosh-"

The cold wind was like a knife, tearing apart every inch of space!
The 1,300 enemy soldiers below had their armor covered in a layer of frost, and their movements instantly became stiff.

Meanwhile, the temperature in the arena had dropped below -70°C.

[Ding! Legendary passive skill - Extreme Cold Domination, all activated!]

Cao Xing's casting speed increased dramatically once again!

With a wave of his staff, ten ice walls rose up with a whoosh, only to be smashed to pieces by the ferocious knights in an instant!
However, Cao Xing didn't intend to use the ice wall to block the knight's attack; he just wanted to activate another passive skill!
[Ding! Passive skill - Frost Crystal Fury triggered!]

At this moment, Cao Xing's skill bar had turned completely red.

Even legendary skills have been amplified by this skill, with their power increased by 100%!

"call……"

Cao Xing exhaled a breath of icy air, his eyes sharp as knives.

"Now, I'll show you my true explosive power!"

Forbidden Spell - Doomsday Ice Star!

With a wave of his staff, the icy elements in the world gathered wildly.

The air seemed to freeze completely, and even time seemed to slow down for a moment!
Above everyone's heads, countless frost-blue meteorites instantly appeared, each meteorite exceeding ten meters in diameter, radiating a destructive pressure!

Meanwhile, the mage and archer legions below were also launching a fierce attack on Cao Xing.

Holy Light Orbs, Lightning Bolts, and Shadow Bolts rained down like a storm!

While rapidly dodging through the air by flapping his wind wings, he maintained the release of the forbidden spell, causing his mental energy to be consumed at an alarming rate!
Of course, not all attacks can be dodged.

"Snapped!"

After a loud bang, the legendary lightning magic struck Cao Xing, causing him to groan and his health to plummet by nearly 200 million!
During this period, he has lost nearly 40 million HP, and his injuries are becoming increasingly severe.

But Cao Xing's eyes remained cold and unwavering.

As more and more frost-blue meteorites emerged, the sky above the entire arena was completely obscured, as if the end of the world had arrived!
Cao Xing felt his mental energy being severely depleted, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead, but a smile still appeared on his lips.

When the number of meteorites reached 100,000, he whispered, "That's about enough..."

"Fall!"

next second.

One hundred thousand doomsday ice stars crashed down!

"boom!!!"

The moment the first meteorite struck the ground, the entire ancient arena trembled violently, and even the arena itself, made of an unknown material, was blasted with countless spiderweb-like cracks!

The archers near the point of impact were instantly sent flying backward, each dealing four to five million damage!
Then, the second one, the third one...

Countless frost-blue meteorites crashed down, instantly turning the entire battlefield into a frost inferno!
"boom--!!!"

Amidst the deafening explosion, the heavy armor of the Giant Wolf Knights proved utterly ineffective, with both riders and their mounts smashed into ice shards!

The archers didn't even have time to dodge before they were frozen into ice sculptures, and then crushed into dust by the shockwave!

The mages brandished their staffs and unleashed a torrent of magic in an attempt to shatter the meteorites before they fell!
The five legendary legion commanders roared and erupted.

"Go all out and crush the meteorite!"

"Legendary assassin, shoot down the mage in the air and interrupt his forbidden spell!"

"Block him!"

However, there were simply too many meteorites to handle.

Moreover, the arena was too small, leaving them with absolutely no room to hide.

In the blink of an eye, most of the 1,300 soldiers had been killed or wounded.

Even the five legendary legion commanders were stunned by the successive impacts, and their health plummeted!
Then... it was completely engulfed by the explosion of frost-blue meteorites.

As the meteorite continued to strike, the intense cold began to freeze everything!
The ground, the air, and even the blood of the soldiers were all corroded by the extreme cold, turning into a deathly pale expanse.

...

[In this battle, 1300 Trial Troops were successfully defeated, and 5.85 million experience points were gained (Pale Guidance + Savior Star)]

[Combat personnel gained 2.92 billion experience points]

[Ding! Congratulations on successfully passing the fourth round of trials!]

[Completion Rewards: Champion Fighter (Orange) *1, Tier 10 Overlord-level Soul *1]

...

...

Outside, almost half an hour had passed since they entered the ancient arena.

More and more mercenaries arrived at the square.

Interspersed among them were several figures with vast auras and unfathomable strength.

They discussed it in small groups.

"It's been almost half an hour. Who do you think will win this bet?"

"Is there even a question? It must be Prince Kai Lan of the North Wind. The legendary weapon in his hand is no ordinary legend; it's the Demon Sword known as the 'Godslayer'!"

"Yes... Since Kai Lan broke through to become a legendary, he has never lost. So far, no one of his level has been able to defeat him. This otherworldly lord is doomed to lose."

Because of Kai Lan's immense fame, most of the people here are his supporters.

At this moment, a mercenary with a full beard suddenly raised his voice: "I think it's more likely that the otherworldly lord will win."

"You weren't here just now, so you didn't see Prince Kai Lan of the North Wind bowing his head before that otherworldly lord!"

"This lord is quite a figure!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted in an uproar!
"What? There is such a thing?"

"Tell me quickly what happened!"

"What exactly is the identity of that otherworldly lord who can make Kai Lan bow down?"

The bearded mercenary who had spoken immediately perked up after receiving so much attention!

He jumped onto a section of the ruins and vividly recounted what had just happened in the square.

"You didn't see it! Prince Kai Lan's face turned pale!"

"That lord simply raised his hand, and the entire plaza instantly froze into an ice field!"

"When Prince Kai Lan bowed in apology at the end, his waist was so bent that it almost touched the ground!"

The onlookers were stunned, and the young mercenaries didn't even notice their weapons falling to the ground.

Even the few mysterious figures hidden in the crowd showed surprise in their eyes.

"Another world lord... who made Kai Lan bow his head... interesting."

Just then, a mercenary suddenly pointed at the stone tablet and exclaimed, "Look! Something has changed on the stone tablet!"

"The name of the North Wind Prince has appeared!"

Upon hearing this, thousands of eyes in the square turned to look.

Sure enough, they saw Kai Lan's name among the names listed in front of the stone tablet.

[Fourth Place: Kai Lan, Level Cleared: Round 4 (Time: 6 minutes 15 seconds)]

...

When that dazzling 'fourth place' appeared, the whole audience erupted in an uproar!

"My God! They actually made it into the top five!"

"He was just a dozen seconds away from surpassing Rosie from Chuanhaibao and becoming the fastest person to pass the fourth round!"

"How terrifying! This is Prince Kai Lan's first time challenging the ancient arena, and he has already achieved such a result."

"As expected of 'Blade of the North Wind,' his talent is even comparable to his father 'Undying Demon Body'!"

A chorus of praise erupted from the crowd.

At this moment, several veteran mercenaries shook their heads and sighed: "Judging from the current situation, that otherworldly lord is doomed to lose. A time of 6 minutes and 15 seconds is a number that may not be achieved even once in many years."

“Yes, unless this otherworldly lord can pull off a miracle, he can’t possibly be faster than Kai Lan.”

"It seems... Talia has no choice but to return to the Northwind Kingdom with Kailan. Poor Rose Goddess, she's going to become a political sacrifice too..."

Just then, another mercenary said, "It's not just Talia. The bet that Kailan made states that, in addition to the Rose Goddess, he will also have a life-or-death battle with a Holy Light Sage under the command of that otherworldly lord."

Upon hearing this, several mercenaries in the distance widened their eyes!

"The Holy Light Sage? His [Whispers of the Night - Godslayer] isn't the most effective counter to the Holy faction..."

At this point, many of the mercenaries around him simultaneously showed expressions of sudden realization.

"I see... I think I understand why Kai Lan proposed this bet..."

The others also exchanged knowing glances.

In their view, the otherworldly lord was about to suffer heavy losses this time...

Just then, everyone suddenly felt a strong tremor in the plaza beneath their feet, and even the arena in front of them began to shake violently!

"Rumble..."

They looked around in confusion.

A mercenary asked, "What happened? Why is there an earthquake in the inner city?"

"Could it be that another treasure has appeared in the world?"

Just then, a sharp-eyed mage shouted, "Look... there are cracks in the walls of the arena!"

"what?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked over.

On the walls of the arena, which were made of an unknown metal and covered with alchemical runes, a fine crack had appeared!

Although the crack was healing at an extremely fast pace, it was still beyond their comprehension!

"By the gods... this is the first time a crack has appeared in the arena in the more than sixty years since it was discovered!"

"That's a building that even a legendary-level expert couldn't damage when forcibly attacked!"

"What happened inside?"

Just when they were incredulous.

Another mercenary glanced at the stone tablet in front of him and saw that the rankings on it had changed again...
