Wei Wo Du Kuang felt a surge of anxiety at the thought.
"You lot, go pull even more monsters for me. Zero Wing wants to surpass me, wants to kick me off the Honor Level Board? Keep dreaming! I won't give up this spot to anyone." A bloodthirsty gleam flashed in Wei Wo Du Kuang's eyes as he issued another command.
Immediately, a group of Rangers and Assassins went to lure monsters. The other spell-casting classes with area-of-effect attacks increased their assault speed. Wei Wo Du Kuang, who was no longer part of the team, charged in and began frantically securing last hits, taking the lion's share of the experience points without having to share with the group.
This method of leveling was exceedingly lavish. Even a high-level squad continuously grinding wild monsters couldn't match this speed.
However, Wei Wo Du Kuang was unaware that the monsters he and the Zero Wing group were farming were on completely different levels.
Wei Wo Du Kuang was fighting ordinary monsters around level 20, with no experience bonuses. The Zero Wing hundred-man raid, on the other hand, was farming level 30 Elite NPCs. These Elites already gave immense experience, not to mention the bonus for killing mobs ten levels higher. Even split among a hundred people, the experience gain was still faster than Wei Wo Du Kuang's.
Time flew by. The nighttime White River City was bustling. Being the weekend, even though it was daytime in the real world, many players hadn't logged out and were still enjoying themselves in the Divine Realm. Going out of the city to kill monsters was a bit dangerous, so they gathered in the city's taverns to drink and chat.
With nothing better to do, everyone was paying close attention to whether Zero Wing could really kick Wei Wo Du Kuang off the Honor Level Board.
They were especially interested in Zero Wing members' level rankings.
Over an hour had passed. Zero Wing guild, which initially occupied the bottom seventy spots, had gradually taken over the bottom forty. The speed of their rise left everyone dumbfounded.
Many had originally thought this was just speculation and joking, not to be taken seriously.
But looking at this momentum, Zero Wing really seemed poised to monopolize the top hundred spots on the Honor Level Board.
This stirred a bit of excitement in everyone's hearts.
If Zero Wing guild actually pulled it off, then those players who preferred to go it alone would have to seriously consider one thing.
Should they join Zero Wing guild?
Meanwhile, inside the tavern, the Holy Grail Knights were also there drinking and celebrating.
Today, they had successfully cleared the level 15 twenty-man hard-mode team dungeon, Blood Fang Fortress, obtaining a good amount of equipment and materials.
"Brother Cang Lang, this Zero Wing is really something. First they defeated Xiong Ba Tian Xia, then they slew Dark Star's Wei Wo Du Kuang, and now they're about to kick Wei Wo Du Kuang off the Honor Level Board, directly dominating the level rankings. Maybe soon, Zero Wing will be the rulers of White River City."
The Holy Grail Knights' guild leader, Cang Lang Zhan Tian, shook his head. "It's still too early to say. The other top-tier guilds aren't pushovers; they won't just let Zero Wing develop unchecked. But Zero Wing certainly has some tricks up their sleeve. We really underestimated them before."
Cang Lang Zhan Tian had barely finished speaking when the tavern door opened and several players wearing black cloaks walked in. The equipment on them immediately drew the attention of every player in the tavern. They were all clad head-to-toe in Mythril-rank gear, and none bore any guild emblem. The player leading them was even a beautiful female Summoner.
If Shi Feng had been there, he would have recognized this beautiful female Summoner as You Lan from the Underworld guild.
"Brother Cang Lang, it's been a long time." You Lan walked up to Cang Lang Zhan Tian with a bright smile.
"It really has been a long time. Back then you were a graceful, innocent, and cute little girl. Now you've become a stunning beauty feared by all. Time really is amazing." Cang Lang Zhan Tian looked at the noble and elegant You Lan before him and sighed with emotion.
