"Who the hell is that guy? He used a Spatial Gate to get here — that's beyond extravagant!"
"Has this guy lost his mind? Didn't he see that even an expert like Qingshuang is being completely suppressed?"
"Does he really think Zhutian Luanshi is someone you can reason with?"
The players watching from Aurora Shelter were all stunned by Shi Feng's sudden appearance in midair.
No one had expected this turn of events!
The terrifying pressure that Zhutian Luanshi radiated could be felt clearly even by those several hundred yards away. His strength was absolutely inhuman — even Qingshuang, who was known as one of the three great Elementalists of the Dark Cavern, probably couldn't last more than a few exchanges. Some even suspected that Qingshuang and the others combined wouldn't be a match for Zhutian Luanshi alone.
Yet, someone actually dared to walk right up and provoke Zhutian Luanshi at the height of his dominance…
"Just a measly Tier 3 Class, and you dare challenge our Guild Master? You're a hundred years too early, kid! I'll show you right now what real power looks like!" A Level 108 Tier 3 Shield Warrior behind Zhutian Luanshi glared at Shi Feng in fury, raising his shield and short axe as he strode toward Shi Feng, intent on showing him what Sentinel Shelter was truly capable of.
"This guy must be desperate for fame, actually daring to provoke Zhutian Luanshi. There's nobody in the entire Dark Cavern — not in heaven or earth — who can save him now. Sentinel Shelter will absolutely kill him all the way back to Level Zero."
"Wait — that guy seems to be wearing the Zero Wing guild emblem on him. He's probably trying to rescue Qingshuang and the others."
"What good does running in there do? Has he not seen how terrifying Zhutian Luanshi is right now? Forget Qingshuang and the rest — even if our Aurora Shelter's top adventure party charged in all at once, they probably still wouldn't be a match for Zhutian Luanshi alone. He's just throwing his life away."
Some of the sharper-eyed players among the crowd quickly spotted the silver-white six-winged emblem on Shi Feng's jet-black cloak. Their gazes toward Shi Feng were a mix of mockery and pity.
In the past, the First Shelter's Zero Wing had been a contender for the top three in the entire Dark Cavern. But now, with Sentinel Shelter's meteoric rise, Zero Wing was destined to fall.
"He shouldn't have gone."
While the crowd from Aurora Shelter lamented the ever-shifting power dynamics of the Dark Cavern, Junya — standing on the city wall — looked at Shi Feng's sudden appearance, first with surprise, then shook her head helplessly.
Shi Feng was indeed a Tier 3 Class, and against those Tier 2 experts he would naturally be formidable. But the person he was facing now was a demon-enhanced Tier 3 expert from Sentinel Shelter. Never mind her — even if she and Zidian Luosha teamed up, they probably wouldn't gain much advantage.
"He does have some backbone!" Zidian Luosha watched as Shi Feng landed before Zhutian Luanshi, a hint of surprise flickering across her face. "It's a pity that against Sentinel Shelter, even Qingshuang can barely protect herself, let alone him. What can he possibly do?"
When it came to demon-enhanced players, no one understood them better than she did.
Their stats and constitution were incomparable to ordinary players of the same tier. As things stood, no one in all of Aurora Shelter — apart from Huanyu — could stand up to Sentinel Shelter. But someone of Huanyu's stature would never involve herself in something like this.
However, just as Zidian Luosha turned her gaze toward Huanyu's face beside her, she saw an expression she couldn't quite name — gravity and shock, as though Huanyu had seen a ghost.
"Why is *he* here?"
Huanyu's eyes were filled with disbelief, and the sheer force of her shock was something even the ordinary players around them could plainly feel.
"Vice Guild Master Huanyu?" Zidian Luosha stared at Huanyu in confusion, completely at a loss.
Just moments ago, Huanyu had worn a composed, indifferent expression even when facing the monstrous Zhutian Luanshi. Yet now, upon seeing this newcomer — who carried not the slightest shred of killing intent and looked like nothing more than an ordinary Tier 3 Swordsman — Huanyu had lost all her composure. It was absolutely baffling.
"Vice Guild Master Huanyu, do you know that person?" Junya, too, had noticed the dramatic shift in Huanyu's demeanor and couldn't help but ask curiously.
She had studied Shi Feng carefully as well. His strength was certainly not weak, but it was nowhere near enough to draw serious attention from experts of their caliber. If there was anything special about him at all, it was that he was a high-level member of Zero Wing — but even Qingshuang, Zero Wing's Vice Guild Master, hadn't been able to pique Huanyu's interest, let alone some Tier 3 expert from the same guild.
