Among the contestants in the second stage, the professionals from the four royal cities were somewhat hesitant.

But seeing that the "countryside" professionals from Grae City and Valkham did not back down, coupled with the generous rewards, they decided to give it a try.

Anyway, Tester has promised that low-level people like them don't have to go to the frontal battlefield.

"Oh no, it seems we've been tricked!"

The sixth-level contestants only knew that there would be another fairer way to decide the champion, but they didn't expect to have to fight on the front lines.

At this time, there were still tens of thousands of spectators from the royal city in the hall.

Which of these winners is not famous now?

It is even said that some members of the mercenary group deliberately promote themselves to expand the reputation of the mercenary group.

But now, in front of everyone, if they withdraw from the competition, they will inevitably be labeled as cowards.

The fame accumulated before will collapse in an instant.

It may even affect the mercenary group behind it, resulting in a reduction in commissioned tasks.

Even if you are not a solo member of the mercenary group, if you quit at this time, you will still be harassed by rumors and become notorious.

For people of other races, quitting at this time will not have much impact on them.

I came here to travel, so the worst that can happen is I can just live in a different city.

But among the fourth level, neither the dwarf brothers nor the orcs withdrew.

They were connected by Sun, and Sun needed to improve his strength, so he would definitely go to the front line.

Kim, Yinm, Leighton, and Vernal discussed it and decided that it would be exciting to fight on the front lines, so they decided to go together to see for themselves and decide who would win.

A minute later, only two fifth-level and three sixth-level players chose to forfeit.

These are all members of the mercenary group.

Tester remained calm and directly announced that they were disqualified from the competition.

After they stepped down from the stage, Tester said in a loud voice: "To have the title of 'Number One in the World', one must not only have super strength, but also extraordinary courage and insight!

The title of 'Number One in the World' awarded by the royal family and the title of 'Adventurer Star' awarded by the Adventurer's Guild also represent the royal family and the Adventurer's Guild.

Those who don’t even dare to participate in the finals are naturally not eligible to compete for titles, rewards, and welfare benefits!

For those who stayed, your courage alone has surpassed many others."

Tester's words not only implicitly disparaged those who gave up, but also encouraged those who chose to stay.

This made the faces of several people who abstained from voting turn black.

The people on the stage straightened their chests.

Since five people are missing, we naturally have to select five more.

"As long as the top fifty contestants step onto the stage now, they will be eligible directly."

As soon as Tester finished speaking, several figures rushed out from the audience.

But soon they were blocked or overtaken by the people behind them in various ways.

The journey from the audience seats to the ring can also be considered a screening process.

As five figures appeared on the stage, the lineup for this trip to Warrengel was finalized.

"Very good, everyone, please gather outside the tournament hall in three days. We will go through the portal and follow the Blade Legion and other armies to Warrengel!"

"Your Highness, wait a moment!"

When Anno saw Tester preparing to leave, he stepped forward and asked, "Can the adventurer use the portal to Warrengel to support the front line?"

Tester smiled when he heard this.

"sure!"

Tester's answer made many people's eyes light up.

For example, Ashe lost to Anno.

She now wants to go to Warren Gulch, too.

But if you walk there normally, it will take at least a few days.

Portals can save a lot of time.

As everyone left the hall, news about the final events spread at an extremely fast speed.

Ordinary people generally applauded.

This is to resist the Demon King's army and prevent the country from being invaded, doing the same thing as the army.

If you make a contribution, you can be called a hero.

A few people who backed down at the critical moment were naturally criticized.

It’s just that they are very powerful and no one dares to say it to their faces.

However, those who have long-term cooperation with the mercenary group behind these people are already considering changing a partner.

As for the new partner, it is not other large mercenary groups, but the Adventurer's Guild!

The big merchants had already contacted the Adventurer's Guild and issued some low-level tasks.

However, the Adventurer's Guild did not have many experts before, and high-level tasks could only rely on mercenary groups.

But now, the number of adventurers in the guild has doubled, and many experts have chosen to join.

In just over two months, its size had become larger than the top ten mercenary groups in the royal city combined!

Coupled with a suitable price, as long as the Adventurer's Guild successfully completes a few high-level commissions and proves itself, the merchants will have the opportunity to change partners immediately.

Many mercenary groups in the city have just discovered that their business has been almost completely snatched away by the Adventurer's Guild, and a small number of mercenary groups are facing unemployment.

But they can't do anything!

The current Adventurer's Guild is no longer the same as when it was first established.

Up to now in the World's No. 1 Professional Competition, the number of adventurers has increased dramatically.

In addition, the mysterious president An Nuo has appeared, and it is rumored that his strength may also be level six.

No mercenary group dares to cause trouble for the Adventurer's Guild anymore.

Otherwise, they would destroy the jobs of tens of thousands of adventurers.

Tens of thousands of adventurers and countless clients who have begun to get used to the guild will not agree to this.

…

The next day, Adventurer's Guild!

The wolf girl took a commission that An Nuo had just written from upstairs and posted it on the task wall.

At this time, the task wall was filled with tasks of various levels.

The task posted by Wolf Girl is [Guild Collective Task: Monster Hunter! ]

[Mission Objective: Follow the Adventurer's Guild President to Warrengel and hunt monsters.]

[Any adventurer can participate, and can decide whether to go with the army or hunt monsters alone. You can exchange the hunting certificate (the key parts of the monster) for merit points at the military supply department. The merit points obtained by hunting monsters will be 20% more than usual. ]

[Merit points can be exchanged for resources, and even for magic equipment - it was not possible to exchange for magic equipment before! ]

[The adventurer with the most merit points will be awarded the title of [Monster Hunter] by the guild. The guild will no longer charge a handling fee for adventurers with this title to complete tasks! You will receive VIP treatment when you go to any adventurer guild, including but not limited to a 50% discount on consumption, an exclusive meeting room, and priority for tasks! ]

This was the first time that a guild group mission appeared in the royal city.

When the old adventurer from Valkham saw the guild mission above, he couldn't help but recall the days when he fought to the death with the slime army and monster troops in the town of Gruul, blocked the retreating monsters in the village of Mir, and... was chased by undead zombies and was chased to a pulp.

Anyone who can survive every guild group mission will reap huge rewards that they never dared to imagine before.

Those who follow Annuo will gain more!

Regardless of what others thought, the adventurer from Valkham ran to the front desk to sign up after seeing that Anno would also participate in the guild's collective mission.
