I told you to change your skills, and you changed them into a nuclear explosion immortal?

"Wind Tornado!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

In scene 15, Mu Qingcheng, dressed in palace attire and resembling a fairy, pressed her staff forward.

Three 3-meter-high, multicolored tornadoes swept the dozen or so level 35 high-level jackal monsters into the air like autumn leaves being swept away by the wind.

-35762

-33256

-35732

"Bang! Bang!"

As the monster fell to the ground and died, a golden light emanated from its body.

Mu Qingcheng put away her staff expressionlessly.

"As expected of an illusion, the experience points are really high..."

In just ten hours, she leveled up from level 45 to level 47, a speed that would be unthinkable anywhere else.

Meanwhile, her four best friends rushed to her side after defeating the monster in front of them.

"Sister Mu, your damage is insane, and your skills are so cool too. I'm so envious."

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingcheng remained completely unmoved.

"Whether it looks good or not is meaningless; harm is what matters."

Professionals are similar to players in games, but they are not like cultivators in fantasy novels, and there is no distinction between good and evil.

So even if the skills are dark-type, no one cares.

What people care about is always the harm done.

"Thirty thousand is already insane. Even with Qianqian's full buffs, I barely reached 2. The difference is too great..."

Mu Qingcheng didn't want to discuss such trivial matters. She looked at Qi Yao, who had a ponytail and was wearing armor.

"What's the current situation with the leaderboards?"

Qi Yao glanced at the communication box.

"We're firmly in first place across all metrics, the Nightless Team is second, Wen Liangyu is third, and Xu... Qingmeng?"

Qi Yao was taken aback when she saw Xu Qingmeng's name.

"Xu Qingmeng's team is fourth? They're actually in game number 12, and their score is only 800 points lower than Qin Wushuang's, plus they're a trio."

Qi Yao didn't keep them in suspense, but after hearing it, not only Mu Qingcheng, but also the other three were stunned.

"Round 12? They're that fast?"

Changing scenery and fighting monsters are indeed unrelated, but finding the boundary flag is itself a symbol of strength.

Because almost every border flag is guarded by a group of monsters, even if you are lucky enough to encounter one without a group of monsters guarding it, how can you not attract attention if you can keep up with her pace?

"Three people? And their scores are only 800 points less than Qin Wushuang's. This speed has already surpassed most silver-level professions."

Upon hearing this, Qi Yao nodded.

"She is a silver-tier class, ranked 9th on the dark horse list, a frost mage."

"interesting……"

Mu Qingcheng thought for a moment without expression.

"Could she have someone helping her too? But... Xu Qingmeng? I've never even heard of that name before. She probably doesn't have much knowledge or influence..."

Mu Qingcheng muttered a few words to herself, then looked at Qi Yao and said.

Who are her teammates? Are they also silver-ranked players?

Qi Yao shook her head.

"One is named Lu Yun, and the other is named Li Zian. They are not from any major power, nor are they silver-level professionals."

Silver-level professions are a key focus, and she naturally knows the situation of each silver-level profession very well, but these two people are even more confusing than Xu Qingmeng, and she can't figure them out at all.

However, Mu Qingcheng felt something was off, and after thinking for a few seconds, she spoke.

"Then have someone investigate those three women, the more detailed the better."

"Okay, Sister Mu."

……

Field 13.

After sheathing her weapon, Mingyu, expressionless, glanced at the communication box and spoke.

"We only have an hour and a half until the automatic scene change, and Mu Qingcheng's team has already gone to scene 16. What about us?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Liangyu, who had been resting in the back, looked at the eight boundary flags in his hand and smiled as he spoke.

"She's already at court number 16? Looks like she's in a hurry."

"Is it because we've been chasing too hard, or is it because of Xu Qingmeng?"

Wen Liangyu pondered for a moment with a smile on his face.

"It didn't give me a very good feeling... but it doesn't really matter."

At this point, he looked at Mingyu and smiled.

"Then let's change the scenery."

Mingyu hesitated for a moment before coming to his side and speaking.

"When do you plan to let them make their move?"

"No rush."

Wen Liangyu remained all smiles, as if nothing could dampen his good mood.

"There are 33 venues in total. The first 20 venues aren't that interesting. Let's collect all the boundary flags first."

Mingyu nodded, feeling that Wen Liangyu was even crazier than usual today.

"So when are you planning to make your move? Your score is already very low."

"Well, at least someone's with them..."

Wen Liangyu didn't care about his points; he had already gained experience points anyway. As for the final result, he would see it on the last day.

"But you're right, it is indeed a bit embarrassing for a silver-level professional to have such low points."

"Then... let's go with the 25th round. The 25th round is about right. It's a refined level 40 monster, worth my time."

As if he had thought of something, Wen Liangyu's smile grew even wider.

……

Inside the stadium.

The audience was thrilled to see the top performers on the dark horse list on the big screen showcasing their skills.

Especially after the first automatic scene change 12 hours later, many people were suddenly teleported into a group of high-level monsters in the new scene, and were unjustly killed by the sudden monster attack, which caused an uproar among the audience.

However, those who were sent out in Arena 2 were all low-rarity, low-level professionals around level 10, so the audience didn't pay much attention to them.

Consider it a purification process.

On the high platform.

The group of bigwigs nodded as they watched the students being brought out of the stadium.

"In previous years, there would be sudden deaths during the first scene change at 12 hours, but this year it's been alright, not many."

"Judging from this, it's down by 30% compared to last year, which shows that the overall strength has indeed improved a lot this year."

"They were just unlucky. The scene changed and they were suddenly surrounded by monsters. Those who were slow to react were caught off guard and couldn't hold on."

"Hmph, this is what happens when you don't study properly and don't hone your skills after changing jobs. You lost your composure, so who can you blame if you die?"

Many big shots didn't give these disappointing students a friendly look. It's not their fault that their major is bad, but their lack of ambition is.

Fortunately, someone suddenly ran over and interrupted the conversation.

When Wen Yaotian, the head of the Wen family, saw that people had returned, he suddenly remembered the matter of investigating Xu Qingmeng and the other two.

"Wen Ke? How's it going? Have you investigated it thoroughly?"

A hint of hesitation flashed in Wen Ke's eyes, but he quickly nodded.

"Master, we've found out everything."

"Xu Qingmeng, the daughter of the Xu family, the second largest family in Mingguang City, is a silver epic-level mage. After her first reincarnation, she became a frost mage."

"Mingguang City? Which small place is that?"

To be honest, everyone was a bit confused.

Wen Ke twitched the corner of his mouth and said.

"It's... in a remote third-tier city in the south, belonging to the mountainous region..."

"Third, third-tier? Ah..."

Wen Yaotian waved his hand.

"Never mind, it's all irrelevant. But a second-tier family in a third-tier city probably doesn't have any special methods or power. How did she reach level 39?"

Let alone third-tier cities, some first-tier cities are not well-received, such as Chongqing.

Therefore, the group of bigwigs immediately realized that the Xu family did not have that kind of power.

However, as a super-powerful force that controls the entire capital region, it still has many intelligent people among its members.

Soon someone thought of something.

"What about the other two? What's their situation?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Ke's expression became noticeably unnatural.

"That guy named Li Zian is also from Mingguang City, but his family isn't even considered second-rate; they're just an ordinary moderately wealthy family. He himself was only a rare-level black thief, but after one transformation, he became a combat thief."

"He was classmates with Xu Qingmeng and Lu Yun, but they hardly interacted. Their relationship was... well, practically nonexistent. After changing jobs, Xu Qingmeng leveled up with her best friend, while Li Zian hired a retainer to train with him. They never even met."

"However... Li Zian was already level 36 before entering the instance."

"this……"

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment before being completely bewildered.

"This black-rarity thief is already level 36?"

"Level 36? That's higher than most silver-tier professions, isn't it?"

"What's going on? An ice mage, supposedly the slowest leveling mage of his level, has reached level 39, and a squishy, ​​low-damage black rogue has reached level 36? Are you sure you didn't investigate wrong?"

This was too unbelievable. After exchanging bewildered glances, everyone felt that something seemed wrong.

With no connection to each other and being utterly incompetent, how did they manage to rise to this level?

and many more?

It seems there's another person?

Wen Yaotian's eyelids twitched, and he subconsciously looked at Wen Kedao.

"What about that Lu Yun guy? What's his situation?"
