After Bai Qingxue and her group had waited for some time at the Blue Mountain Fine Dining restaurant, a girl wearing a cyan mage's robe, her hair tied in twin ponytails and radiating a holy light, appeared before everyone.
"Allow me to introduce her. This is Ziyan Liuyun, the healer from Zero Wing's main raid team," Shi Feng said, walking up to the girl's side and introducing her to Bai Qingxue and the others.
"Hello." Being the center of attention from Bai Qingxue's group made Ziyan Liuyun a little nervous. She bowed her head slightly and spoke softly.
Bai Qingxue and her companions were stunned.
The expert Shi Feng had guaranteed turned out to be a young girl, a Priest at that, and her level was only 22—the same as Shi Feng's. For expert players, this was rather low.
After all, all of them were already level 24.
A two-level gap might not seem like much, but among experts, even such a small difference could decide the outcome of a battle. It wasn't an uncommon occurrence in the Divine Realm.
Moreover, it was common knowledge in the Divine Realm that while Priests had some combat ability, they were far inferior to other combat classes. Perhaps Ziyan Liuyun's combat skills were excellent and she could handle ordinary players without issue, but facing another expert, her absolute class disadvantage meant she stood no chance of winning.
Zhao Yueru couldn't help but glare at Shi Feng, so angry she wanted to bite him.
Her initial improved impression of him had been completely wrong. Shi Feng had no bottom line at this point; he was still in the mood to make a fool of them.
Did he really think the people they were about to face were just noobs?
Zhao Yueru was about to speak up, but Bai Qingxue stopped her.
"Now that everyone's here, I'll lead the way," Bai Qingxue said, and went to hail a carriage on the street.
Originally, Bai Qingxue had also considered replacing Ziyan Liuyun, but since Shi Feng had guaranteed her and she was already here, sending her away would be embarrassing for him.
As for finding someone else to replace Ziyan Liuyun, the result would be the same; it didn't matter if they swapped her out. She might as well give Shi Feng some face.
"Ziyan, I'll be looking forward to your performance," Shi Feng said with a shake of his head and a chuckle, watching Bai Qingxue's retreating figure.
"Mm. I definitely won't let you down," Ziyan Liuyun nodded firmly.
Then the two of them also got into the carriage.
Shi Feng knew Ziyan Liuyun's combat skills very well; they were top-notch within Zero Wing. She had simply been held back by being a low-tier profession, unable to show her full strength. But now, having successfully advanced to Astrologer, things were completely different.
Moreover, there was one thing Bai Qingxue and her group hadn't noticed.
His and Ziyan Liuyun's rank was no longer zero—they were now first-order.
Of course, a player's rank couldn't be discovered with ordinary observation skills; it required advanced ones. That was why advanced observation was a must-learn skill in the Divine Realm. Offending a high-ranked player by mistake would lead to endless regret, because the gap in rank was far greater than the gap in levels.
