The numbers were now about even, and the difference in combat power between the two sides wasn't significant. Little Boss was being held back by the other members of the House of Evolution. It was up to him to resolve matters on this side!

He immediately activated his Armament Haki, his arms becoming Black Steel-like, brimming with explosive power.

Dung Beetle squinted and turned his head, saying, "Steady as an Old Dog, you take command this time!"

Among them, it seemed Steady as an Old Dog was the only one with a talent for command. The others? Judging by the way they were rubbing their fists, eager to fight, it was clear they weren't leadership material.

Steady as an Old Dog nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "There are quite a few high-level fighters on their side, mainly centered around Iron-blooded War Hero. We have to take them down first. Boss, how confident are you against Iron-blooded War Hero? If you can defeat him, the others are nothing to fear!"

Upon hearing this, Dung Beetle pondered for a moment, then mused, "It's fifty-fifty. I'm second on the Combat Power List, and he's third. Now that Eight Gates Escape Armor and Armament Haki are available to both of us, the difference in our combat power lies entirely in our Five Elements Technique. He's skilled in Earth Magic, and I'm an unconventional Wind Magic user. It's hard to say how it will go when we fight."

"Just focus on holding him off! I'll arrange everything else," Steady as an Old Dog said. He then continued in a deep voice, "Ao Xiang Squad, use your Wood Element Spells to tie down Iron-blooded War Hero and try to create an opening for the Boss. The Heavens are Dead, lead your people against the others. Remember, you must eliminate them first. Clear the battlefield completely and, if possible, draw them towards the seaside."

Hearing his arrangements, the players grew excited. This was the first player-versus-player battle, and many eyes were on them.

On Iron-blooded War Hero's side, their plan was much simpler.

"Focus fire on Dung Beetle!" Iron-blooded War Hero declared in a deep voice. "He's the only Wind Magic user. Try everything to take him down instantly, then deal with the Ao Xiang Squad. Once Dung Beetle is dead, the rest are just pushovers, nothing to be afraid of!"

"Fight!"

As both sides issued their commands simultaneously, a barrage of spells rained down ruthlessly upon their opponents.

"Fuck, protect the Boss!"

Steady as an Old Dog saw their target, and his expression turned grim. Are they going to focus fire and insta-kill Dung Beetle?

Immediately, the Ao Xiang Squad members took action, one Earth Magic spell after another forming a barrier in front of Dung Beetle.

But in the next moment, Iron-blooded War Hero, having activated the third gate of the Eight Gates Escape Armor, rushed forward, his pitch-black fist radiating oppressive force.

BOOM—

With a single punch, the Earth Magic defenses crumbled instantly.

Dung Beetle was now exposed.

But this gave Dung Beetle a chance to counterattack!

"Giant Spiral Pill!"

In Dung Beetle's hand, a Spiral Pill rapidly expanded, its force even blowing the members of the Ao Xiang Squad away.

Seeing the ever-growing, sky-obscuring Spiral Pill, the faces of Iron-blooded War Hero and his allies turned ashen.

They were a step too late!

He knew very well how strong Dung Beetle was. Once Dung Beetle had a chance to make a move, it would be impossible for the other players to resist.

The next moment, Dung Beetle, holding the Spiral Pill high, slowly floated up, wind blades constantly swirling around his body, blocking the spells fired by the players below one by one.

"Feel the pain, experience the pain, accept the pain, understand the pain!"

Dung Beetle stared at the crowd below, slowly closed his eyes, and murmured, "Your War Alliance doesn't call the shots in this game!"

With that, he casually tossed the oversized Spiral Pill in his hand downwards.

The unsupported Spiral Pill descended like a bomb.

The glare of the sun vanished from everyone's vision. In its place was the brilliant, yet perilous, cyan glow of the Spiral Pill.

"Everyone, fall back!"

Iron-blooded War Hero hadn't expected Dung Beetle to possess such a powerful move. He could feel the threat emanating from the Spiral Pill. Does the second-ranked player on the Combat Power List really have this kind of strength?

"Earth Escape - Earth Array Wall!"

"Earth Escape - Earth Prison!"

"Kun Character - Earth River Vehicle!"

"Kun Character - Super Large Palace!"

"..."

Players from the House of Evolution watched the falling Spiral Pill, each activating their defensive measures.

What met them, however, was destruction that swept through everything like a relentless force of nature.

As the Spiral Pill crashed down, the entirety of Hailong Town began to crumble under the terrifying wind force. Buildings were pulverized into dust, and the very ground of Hailong Town could no longer withstand the Spiral Pill's horrifying devastation.

The ground began to sink, and the lives of the House of Evolution players were mercilessly reaped by the Spiral Pill.

In an instant, Hailong Town was completely obliterated.

A deep crater appeared before the players' eyes; the casualties among the House of Evolution players were immense.

Players witnessing this scene through their Communication Rings swallowed hard.

"Holy shit, did Dung Beetle do this?"

"Damn it, we're all playing the same game! Why is he so ridiculously overpowered, like he's cheating?"

"That move was world-ending! Are Wind Magic Spells always this badass? Where can I learn Wind Magic?"

"Wait, something's wrong with Dung Beetle's Realm; he's not at the Golden Core Realm!"

"Has he broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm? It doesn't look like it. I saw Old Mo break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, and even his aura wasn't this strong."

"Void Refining Realm! That son of a bitch must have spent Contribution Points to break through from the Golden Core Realm directly to the Void Refining Realm!"

"..."

At this moment, the veteran players were all stirred up.

Dung Beetle's breakthrough undoubtedly shattered the notion for many players of remaining content at the Golden Core Realm. The Fourth Test Players were catching up using Realm-Breaking Pills. Were the veteran players supposed to just keep waiting? To stay on the same starting line as the Fourth Test Players?

No, no, no. That wasn't the outcome they wanted.

Chaotic Dance Steps clenched her fists tightly, her eyes wide as she watched, "Void Refining Realm! He actually reached the Void Refining Realm! Did he break through just for this battle? Dung Beetle, that madman!"

Hero Xu Xian sighed, "It seems War Alliance really pushed him too far. Celestial Realm truly is his bottom line."

"It's over? Did the battle really end just like that?"

Fearless Ning Caichen shook his head, "I didn't expect a battle that seemed so evenly matched to turn into a complete rout because of Dung Beetle."

"What a pity we spent so many Contribution Points during the Qixi Festival Event, or we could have made a breakthrough too."

"Void Refining Realm, huh? Dung Beetle's combat power must be comparable to Old Mo's now, right?"

"Old Mo is still number one in combat power. However, if neither of them used Eight Gates Escape Armor, Dung Beetle would definitely be the top player in terms of raw combat strength."

"This guy's improving way too fast. We need to level up quickly as well."
