King of the Beasts!

Immortal Will!

Two legendary effects are activated simultaneously.

Cheng Jianyong swung the great sword, accompanied by a massive gust of wind, and fiercely struck forward.

Clang!

The sound of metal clashing rang out.

A dark yellow halo emanated from the giant sword.

The Shield of Immortality also shimmered with a faint halo.

However, after one second.

The halo on the Shield of Immortality dimmed.

In the next moment, Shen Yun, along with his shield, was sent flying tens of meters away.

Bang!

After Shen Yun landed, his face turned pale.

He quickly cast a Holy Light Healing on himself.

Cheng Jianyong, looking at the great sword in his hand with surprise, exclaimed, "Wow! Hahaha, it seems like my weapon is a bit more powerful?"

Shen Yun, still somewhat in disbelief, said, "Damn, wasn't it supposed to be a hundred percent resistant to being knocked back?"

At this time, Han Xing walked over, "I just realized that when both of your legendary effects were activated, there was a unique glow. This glow should be the Power of Rules that the Shadow Giant Dragon talked about earlier."

"And when two conflicting powers clash, the higher level of power takes precedence."

"That's why Cheng Jianyong was able to send Shen Yun flying."

Everyone showed a look of realization.

In their hearts, they were also curious about this so-called Power of Rules.

Cheng Jianyong, holding the Divine Artifact, couldn't wait to find a monster to test it on.

Han Xing was happy to oblige.

Next, he led everyone to continue exploring the secret realm.

[Two-Star Secret Realm: Kobold Tribe, Required Level: 10~15, Number of Entries: 1~5 people.]

In a flash.

Before them appeared a camp of tents.

There were at least over three hundred kobolds ranging from level 10 to 15, including a dozen elite monsters and one leader.

Upon seeing Han Xing and his group, all the kobolds raised their weapons and charged.

In the face of a terrifying number of monsters, the group did not flinch.

Cheng Jianyong shouted, "Xiaoyunzi, give me a shield, and a blessing! I'm going all-out!"

Shen Yun reacted quickly.

As Cheng Jianyong charged, he first cast a Holy Light Shield on him, then added a Blessing of Courage.

Cheng Jianyong felt his power surge.

He then wielded the Lion King's Greatsword and began swinging it wildly.

Whoosh—

Whoosh—

Each swing of Cheng Jianyong's sword carried terrifying power.

The kobold minions at the front were almost swept away in droves, like cutting wheat, as a dozen kobold heads fell to the ground.

Splat, splat, splat!

Blood spurted.

Yet Cheng Jianyong grew more excited as he fought.

Relying on his strong equipment, he charged into the group of monsters, killing indiscriminately!

For a moment, dismembered limbs flew everywhere, causing the two girls in the team to turn pale.

Cheng Jianyong didn't seem to notice, excitedly shouting, "Hahaha! This is awesome! So satisfying!"

Hearing his easily misunderstood comments, everyone else was speechless.

Behind them, Han Xing was constantly targeting the elite monsters and the leader monster.

One monster after another fell.

A few minutes later.

The chaotic battlefield calmed down.

A system prompt appeared.

[Successfully cleared the Two-Star Secret Realm, Kobold Tribe. Gained 431,542 experience points and received item rewards: 42 Strong Fragments...]

This was their fastest clear of a two-star secret realm ever.

With all members having top-grade equipment and immense power, they easily crushed the Two-Star Secret Realm.

After leaving the Kobold Tribe, they headed to the next secret realm.

Along the way, when other survivors saw their formidable presence, they usually left tactfully.

Those who weren't wise were met with a few giant crossbow bolts from Han Xing and quickly fled like startled rabbits.

So, they didn't encounter many survivors along the way.

Meanwhile.

The names of the five of them quickly shot into the top hundred from ranking outside the top ten thousand in a short time!

This kind of terrifying climb was unprecedented.

In a district with over 900,000 people, there were plenty of hidden talents.

Before this, those who could break into the top ten, no, even those who could enter the top hundred, were prominent figures in each district, at least a team leader of a large group.

They not only viewed the ranking as a symbol of honor but also used it as a promotional tool.

Whenever someone from a team entered the top hundred, they would ride the wave of this popularity to promote themselves in public channels and recruit other survivors.

The current ranking was closely watched.

As early as in the morning, when the five of them made it into the top five hundred, they attracted a lot of attention.

Especially Han Xing, who, after the previous famous list and backpack trading event, had already gained quite a reputation among the survivors.

When they saw the names Star River, Qing Meng (Zhang Lianmeng's virtual name), Yun Tianming, Lone Brave, Clever Little Sheep—

As if a rising new power was rapidly climbing the ranks, it sparked intense discussion.

"Look, Star God moved up three more places, about to break into the top hundred!"

"And Yun Tianming, Lone Brave, their ranks are also rising rapidly!"

"Oh my gosh, it's understandable for Star God, but how did the others achieve such speed?"

At that moment, survivors from the original 107 district came to explain.

"You guys might not know, but that Yun Tianming and Lone Brave are friends of Star God. In the last two ranking events, Star God helped his friends dominate the top three or top ten."

"Gasp... so terrifying?"

"Wow, being a friend of Star God comes with such perks, so envious!"

"I want to be Star God's friend too, I'm good at everything!"

"Excuse me, does Star God need any more teammates? I'm a 1.75-meter-tall, 108-pound girl and can dance all kinds of dances..."

"I want to join too, I'm eighteen this year~"

"..."

For a while, a group of people wanting to befriend Han Xing appeared in the chat channel.

Amidst everyone's discussions.

An hour passed, and Han Xing's group of five had already entered the top hundred.

Another two hours went by, and it was now deep into the night.

In the incredulous eyes of tens of thousands of survivors, all five names broke into the top ten.

Among them, Han Xing, with 17 points, directly ranked second.

The current first was still a survivor named Boundless, with 19 points, not far from Han Xing.

In third place was Cybertron team leader, Optimus Prime, with 16 points.

Behind them, Su Xiaoyang and Zhang Lianmeng occupied the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th places.

And Han Xing indeed achieved his stated goal, which was to have everyone enter the top ten!

...

At this time.

On a massive Sky Island spanning tens of thousands of square meters, a silver-haired man with deep eyes just walked out of a secret realm.

The quality of the equipment on him was extremely high, with purple mixed with a couple of pieces of golden equipment, even comparable to Han Xing.

In addition, his silver hair and inhuman pupils indicated he most likely also switched to some hidden profession.

This man was the leader of the largest group in district 101, Boundless.

Before this, Boundless was also the dual-ranked first-place strongman of district 101, and he unlocked a powerful profession with the Hidden Profession Scroll from the first ranking event.

Vampire Warrior.

This profession has two formidable talent skills.

First is the attack that comes with a blood-sucking effect.

The second is never feeling fatigued.

Especially with the second talent, allowing him to fight non-stop for twenty-four hours, coupled with the strength of his equipment.

For the past two days, Boundless has been consistently holding the first place on the leaderboard.

At this time, as soon as Boundless came out, he received a report from his subordinates.

On the Cloud Secret Realm points leaderboard, Star River's name had appeared below his and their gap wasn't large.

Boundless's brow suddenly twitched.

"Star River... is it him again?"

In the past two days, Star River's name had frequently appeared in everyone's sights.

Although he knew this person was not simple.

He didn't expect Star River to rise so quickly.

Boundless glanced at a beautiful woman beside him and asked softly, "Last night, I asked you to investigate Star River's information, how did it go?"
