Luo Qingcheng smiled, knowing full well that Wang Dahu couldn't possibly be his real name.

They just didn't expose it.

Just as she thought, there's no need to take many things so seriously.

As the saying goes, "Time will tell," and "A long road tests a horse's strength, and time reveals a person's true character." Given enough time, what is meant to be known will eventually be known.

"So your surname is Lu, the Lu of mainland China, right?"

"You said yesterday you wanted to challenge for a top ten spot. How about this, do you want to challenge me? If I agree, that's fine!"

“I’m ranked fiftieth, but if you really want to challenge me, I can give you a chance.”

"However, if you fail the challenge, you won't even make it into the top 100!"

Just then, Luo Qingguo spoke up again.

Lu Yuan was moved by the suggestion and really wanted to agree, since it would save a lot of time.

However, Luo Qingcheng ruined it:

"Qingguo, stop fooling around!"

Luo Qingcheng first scolded her younger sister Luo Qingguo, then smiled apologetically.

“Mr. Lu, I think you should challenge those ranked 90-100 first.”

"This way, we can first ensure we get into the power rankings, and then challenge for higher positions. This is a safer approach."

Lu Yuan nodded, agreeing that this was indeed a safer approach.

Seeing that Lu Yuan didn't speak, Luo Qingcheng looked at Gong Yuehan beside Lu Yuan.

"You must be Gong Yuehan, the captain of the Maple Leaf Team!"

"Excuse me for asking, what is your relationship?"

Gong Yuehan stole a glance at Lu Yuan:

"Miss Luo, why would you care about this?"

Luo Qingcheng smiled. In fact, she could roughly guess the relationship between the two from Gong Yuehan's actions just now.

Gong Yuehan definitely has feelings for Lu Yuan.

And it's the kind of meaning that hasn't been made public.

Otherwise, if the two are boyfriend and girlfriend, or in any other relationship, they can just say it openly and honestly; there's no need to be so coy.

"I was just asking casually, it's okay if I can't answer."

"Mr. Lu, I hope you achieve good results. If you want to join a major power, you can choose our Luo family."

After Lu Yuan politely said he would consider it, he fell silent.

Luo Qingcheng didn't say anything more.

Often, it's better to stop when you've made your point than to dwell on it endlessly.

As long as a seed is planted, at least in the future, when Lu Yuan wants to join a faction, he will think of what Luo Qingcheng said today.

And it won't offend people.

Watching Luo Qingcheng leave, Gong Yuehan felt a deep sense of crisis.

It seems I really need to try to change things; I absolutely can't let someone else beat me to it.

The challenge is not just for Lu Yuan and his friends; those on the power ranking also have to participate.

For example, Gong Yuehan!

An hour passed quickly, and Lu Yuan arrived at his designated arena.

Lu Yuan was very direct.

"I challenge Huang Fei, who is ranked 91st on the power ranking!"

After confirmation, the referee began to announce:

"Wang Dahu meets the challenge requirements. Please have the challenger come forward!"

Because Lu Yuan registered under the name Wang Dahu, therefore...

No sooner had the words left his mouth than, with a "whoosh," a figure leaped directly onto the arena.

This person was none other than the challenger—Huang Fei!

"Kid, you've got guts to challenge me directly."

"I'm going to use your pet to feed my spirit beast later!"

Lu Yuan looked at his opponent.

This guy looks to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old, and he's not bad looking, but I always feel like he looks a lot like someone—Ye Shengnian.

It's not that the two look alike, it's mainly their personalities.

They were equally arrogant, equally domineering, and equally deserving of a beating.

"Can I kill the other person's pet?"

Lu Yuan suddenly realized that he didn't understand the rules of the competition at all.

He quickly turned to look at the referee beside him.

The referee immediately realized that this guy named Wang Dahu probably hadn't participated in competitions before, so he didn't know much about the game.

He has an obligation to explain the rules of the game to his opponent.

"That's fine!"

"You can kill the opponent's pets, and even their players, as long as they don't admit defeat!"

Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes, considering whether or not to release Bai Ling directly.

These people's pets are all of a fairly high level. If Bai Ling were to eat them, their experience bars would definitely "flash" up!

"Kid, scared yet?"

"Don't worry, at most I'll kill your pet, I won't kill you, because you're too weak!"

Lu Yuan's contemplation gave Huang Fei the wrong impression that Lu Yuan was afraid.

So they started making a fuss.

"Is that so? Then I'll spare your life!"

Lu Yuan said it casually.

In Huang Fei's view, this was just stubbornness, refusing to admit defeat!

"How dare you boast like that! Let's see who's the real deal!"

"Come out, my baby!"

Huang Fei waved his hand, and a wild boar appeared on the arena, then roared at Lu Yuan.

"Wild boar?"

"Godly diagram, show me this beast's attributes!"

Pet Name: Black-Armored Wild Boar

Pet Rank: C

Skill……

Upon seeing this, Lu Yuan immediately lost interest.

He didn't care about the C-rank pet, which put Lu Yuan at ease. It seemed that the strength of this ranking wasn't that great after all.

It's not worth paying attention to at all.

"Come out, Cerberus!"

That's right, Lu Yuan directly summoned Cerberus, which had the potential to be A-rank but was currently C-rank.

Huang Fei was taken aback and then became serious. He thought Lu Yuan's strongest pet was the Crimson Fire Python, but he didn't expect it to be the Cerberus.

This is actually just Huang Fei's fixed perception.

During the qualifying rounds, Lu Yuan summoned a D-rank Hellfire Python, and he arrogantly assumed that Lu Yuan's pet was also D-rank.

"My Black Armored Wild Boar has extensive combat experience; I refuse to believe I can't defeat you."

Huang Fei tried to bolster his courage.

Lu Yuan smiled dismissively and looked at the referee.

It means whether or not we can fight.

Seeing that the two players were ready, the referee decisively gave the order to start the match.

"Cerberus, kill it!"

"If you can kill it in one move, this pig is yours."

Upon hearing this, Cerberus nodded in agreement and charged toward the wild boar.

Cerberus roared to the sky; it was incredibly fast.

Just as the two pets were about to collide, one of Cerberus's heads spewed flames.

Before the black-armored wild boar could react, its entire body was engulfed in flames, and it only had time to let out a scream.

He was bitten on the neck by Cerberus.

"No, stop right now!"

Huang Fei started shouting.

However, it was too late; the black-armored boar was dead.

"A playable monster has been detected: Black Armored Boar. Would you like to add it?"

The voice of the Divine Image Spirit rang in Lu Yuan's mind with perfect accuracy.

Lu Yuan directly chose "no".

Would they even include this pet? It's rubbish!
