About how my wife resurrected me as tentacles after my death.

three days later.

In the trial grounds of Expedition City.

The stands were packed with spectators, and the noise was deafening.

These are all hunters from the Expedition City.

In Expedition City, status and position are locked in place by the ranking in the Trial Grounds.

To improve your status, you need to fight your way up in the trial arena. Winning a match will jump your ranking by dozens or even hundreds of places.

Fang Ming's previous ranking was 1247, which was in the lower middle range.

But most importantly, this training ground is rumored to be related to a certain evil god...

This is also why Yu Wan came here to investigate as soon as she arrived in Expedition City.

Fang Ming, or rather Yu Wan, was watching from here.

With her identification, she easily entered Expedition City yesterday.

Unlike the Alliance, there aren't many procedures and checks here. As long as you have identification, you can get in regardless of whether you're human or ghost.

"Next match," the person in charge called out from the sidelines, and then the two hunters began to prepare.

Yu Wan simply stood at the edge of the stands.

She only watched for a short while, and then left.

Push open the iron gate of the training ground and walk out to the square.

It's much quieter outside now.

I'm just observing her; she's new here, so I need to get to know her first.

The rules of Expedition City are completely different from those of the Alliance, with only one ironclad rule: ranking determines everything.

Fang Ming's ranking was too low; he couldn't even enter the core area of ​​the Expedition City.

Not to mention access to confidential information about evil gods.

We need to improve our ranking first to obtain more information and higher authority before we can investigate this evil god.

Therefore, Chen Yuan planned to let her directly reach first place.

Become the new god of the Expedition City.

This shouldn't be too difficult.

Although it was immediately apparent upon entering Expedition City that the average level of hunters here was indeed higher than that of the Alliance.

Level 3 and 4 agents roam around, but there are basically no ones who can truly threaten them.

Do you also want to revisit the past?

And it shouldn't take long; they'll go back after investigating the evil god.

I just don't know which evil god is behind this trial ground, or if it's the same evil god who resurrected him.

If it's the same one, this isn't just a place for ranking; it could be the first clue to tracing information about the evil god.

If it's not the same one, that's even more troublesome.

This means that there is more than one evil god in this world.

That evil god of his is definitely not serious.

What kind of evil god would install such a strange sensory system on its followers?

Sometimes soft, sometimes hard... the sensitive spots harden at the slightest touch, and it gives that tingling, numbing sensation...

This caused Xiao Yuwan to always grab his sensitive areas, making him unable to move...

.......

Yu Wan walked back along the street.

The streets of Expedition City are much more dilapidated than those of the Alliance.

The architectural style is also very old, like that of medieval Europe.

The walls were made of gray stone, and the alleys were narrow and winding.

There were very few people on the street.

Yu Wan turned into a narrow alley, pushed open a heavy wooden door, and returned to her temporary rented place.

This is an old, two-story stone building with small rooms.

Outside the window was the hazy skyline of Expedition City.

She stood by the window and pushed the wooden window open a crack to let the wind in.

We should start with the training grounds and gather more information.

A small tentacle peeked out from her collar and nuzzled her chin.

Yu Wan held him in her hands and rubbed her face against him.

"Time to make dinner for A-Yuan."

In short, feeding A-Yuan is the first priority. No matter where she goes, feeding A-Yuan is always the first item on her daily schedule.

Chen Yuan felt the same way, cough cough... we need to feed Xiao Yuwan first.

"Pfft..."

.......

After the meal, Yu Wan cleaned up the dishes.

In the afternoon, I went to the training ground again and registered.

Let's try one match first.

The person in charge took Fang Ming's ID card, scanned it on the terminal, and asked without looking up:

"Are you sure? Losing might drop your ranking."

Yu Wan ignored her.

"Alright, next up, Fang Ming," the person in charge could only say.

Her opponent was a hunter ranked 1076.

The man was a burly fellow, standing in the center of the arena carrying a heavy warhammer.

He looked Yu Wan up and down.

The hunters watching whispered among themselves, probably discussing who would win the fight.

Then the person in charge waved his hand, and the competition began.

The burly man charged forward, carrying a warhammer, his footsteps causing a slight tremor in the ground.

But he only exchanged a glance with Yu Wan.

Whispers, mental pollution.

The man immediately knelt down on the ground, foaming at the mouth, and died.

It took less than ten seconds from start to finish; a lightning-fast finish.

Her ranking replaced the other person's, jumping from 1247 to 1076.

The surrounding hunters fell silent for a few seconds, wondering when this newcomer had appeared.

"Hey, when did this person arrive? That's incredibly fast!"

"I bet it's another member of one of the top ten families, here to fry fish."

........

As Yu Wan passed by the person in charge on her way out of the battlefield, she casually inquired about the origins of the training ground.

The information we can probably get out of them is...

The Expedition City didn't have this before. Later, a group of followers of some evil god came and provided money and materials to build this training ground.

And it has been used ever since, gradually becoming the most important system for maintaining the entire Expedition City.

Status and position are entirely determined by ranking.

There were also some people who had never been to the trial grounds, the lowest of the low, the lowest class of people.

They don't even have a ranking; they can only serve as servants to the strong.

Because if you don't beg someone to be your servant, you won't have the protection of a hunter.

That way, even if someone casually kills you on the roadside, no one will know.

Yu Wan took the new ranking certificate he handed her, which read: Fang Ming, ranked 1076.

She put the certificate in her pocket, turned around, and walked out of the trial grounds.

This gave Chen Yuan another idea.

Not only can he use Fang Ming's identity to fight his way up in the trial grounds, but he can also gather information about the evil god among those powerful hunters.

After all, those who can achieve high rankings usually know something about the evil god behind the Trial Grounds.

He could also use another identity, that of the blind, lower-class citizen, to gather information among the lower-class people.

The lower class are the lowest level of people in the expedition city, but precisely because they are at the bottom, they have seen the most dead people and heard the most diverse rumors.

You can see the most authentic side of this city.

The most useful information is often hidden in the corners.

However, it's still easier to just go straight for first place.

Once she becomes the new god of the Expedition City, she can go wherever she wants to investigate, and she can ask whichever believer she wants to question.

This is the easiest way.

Yu Wan pushed open the creaking wooden door and entered her temporary residence.

She placed the ranking certificate on the table and turned to open the window.

Dusk had fallen.

"We'll continue playing tomorrow," she said.

"Pfft." Chen Yuan rubbed against her collarbone inside her neckline, indicating her agreement.

There's something very important to do now, cough cough... After all, one can't forget about cultivation no matter where one goes.

Little Yu Wan, who's always working so hard, are you trying to channel your energy from above or below today...?

Yu Wan had just turned around when she saw...
