"They've finished their class advancement already? That was fast." Shi Feng was mildly surprised. He remembered that the quest to become a Dragon Slayer was no easy task. "Fine, have them come over quickly."
He had originally been worried about lacking the strength to capture Thunder Island and had considered inviting You Bai Ye and his top adventurer party to help. Now that concern was moot.
Setting aside Banxia Qingcheng's advancement to Tier 2 Dragon Slayer Mage, just Ke Le's promotion to Tier 2 Dragon Slayer Knight alone was enough to elevate the team's overall strength by a significant margin.
A Tier 2 main tank!
Both base stats and skills had undergone a qualitative leap, not to mention that Ke Le already wielded the epic-grade Dragon Scale Shield. If he had been present during their battle against the King of Ten Thousand Trees, it would have been far easier, and they wouldn't have wasted a precious Tier 4 magic scroll.
Upon hearing this, Shui Se Qiangwei immediately contacted Banxia Qingcheng and Ke Le, telling them to gather at Wanghai Town.
"Guild Master, if we summon them now, there might not be enough time..." Bai Qingxue glanced at the time and said with some worry.
Traveling from the Star Moon Kingdom to the Empire of Heavenly Revelation would take considerable time.
And Thunder Island was located deep within the Sea of Death, far from the Empire of Heavenly Revelation. There were no teleportation magic circles to get there—they could only make the journey themselves. An ordinary fishing boat would take over a day to reach Thunder Island, while a regular speedboat would be somewhat faster.
The other major factions competing for it had already set out for Thunder Island. The only reason Feng Qianyu and Jiulong Huang hadn't departed earlier was because they wanted to claim the equipment in the Twilight Forest.
Now that the Twilight Forest had been cleared, Feng Qianyu was rushing her people toward Thunder Island.
Shi Feng had come to Wanghai Town specifically because he'd obtained the Ancient Timber and wanted to begin constructing advanced speedboats as soon as possible. Otherwise, they would have headed to Thunder Island together with Feng Qianyu and the others long ago.
Now they had fallen quite far behind. The sixty people in their group couldn't possibly all fit on the Swift Dragon speedboats—the rest would have to travel by advanced speedboat.
Even at advanced speedboat speed, if they set out now, they would barely make it on time. If they waited for Ke Le and Banxia Qingcheng to arrive, they might not make it at all.
"Don't worry, there's enough time." Shi Feng smiled faintly.
He then led everyone to the port of Wanghai Town.
Over half an hour later, Ke Le and Banxia Qingcheng finally arrived at the port, riding magnificent and imposing Thunder Wolf mounts.
The moment the two appeared, they immediately drew the attention of the players around the port—or rather, it was impossible not to notice them. The aura they exuded was far too powerful, and both were riding Thunder Wolf mounts.
"Guild Master, sorry to keep you waiting." Ke Le walked up to Shi Feng and said somewhat sheepishly.
"You're here, that's what matters. Time to get moving." Shi Feng nodded, then added the two to the team.
Jing Wuming and the others who had emerged from the Crystal Ice World were secretly stunned upon seeing Ke Le and Banxia Qingcheng appear so suddenly.
They had already been amazed by the strength Zero Wing had displayed, but they never expected the guild to have even more experts.
"Wuming, do you think you could beat them?" Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Ke Le and Banxia Qingcheng and couldn't help asking curiously in a hushed voice.
She knew she was no match for either Ke Le or Banxia Qingcheng. Simply standing in their presence filled her with a powerful sense of danger—the same kind of feeling she got when standing next to Jing Wuming.
"I'm somewhat confident about the guy, but the other one—I have no idea. I'd have to actually fight her to know." Jing Wuming's gaze toward Banxia Qingcheng was brimming with battle intent.
Back in Coldwind City, there had been no one who could give him a proper fight. Before, when Shi Feng had told him there were countless experts in the Divine Realm, he'd taken it as mere encouragement. But now he could see that Shi Feng hadn't been lying.
"No way—even you're not sure?" Mu Xiaoxiao looked toward Banxia Qingcheng, who had remained mostly silent, and felt an indescribable shock wash over her.
Through her earlier observations, she had already witnessed the prowess of Bai Qingxue, Shui Se Qiangwei, and Zhao Yueru. There were other experts in the guild as well, but they were clearly a significant step below those three.
