So, everyone decided to wait until the next day to find a suitable monster for him to complete the challenge task.

The next day.

It was exactly the thirtieth day since all of humanity descended into this world.

Han Xing started searching for a suitable challenge target for Shen Yun.

Finally, through everyone's unremitting efforts, they selected a leader monster for Shen Yun.

A Level 20 Dark Element creature, the Angry Ghost.

After a prolonged twenty-minute battle.

Shen Yun managed to beat the Leader Monster successfully, relying on his profession's advantage, hammering it steadily to death.

Then, Shen Yun directly completed his advancement.

The commotion of his advancement was no smaller than Han Xing's.

For a moment, the power of Holy Light gathered towards him from all over the sky.

People even vaguely heard melodious singing from the sky, as if angels were whispering beside them.

Cheng Jianyong on the side said speechlessly, "Xiaoyunzi, this profession advancement looks like a coronation ceremony, showing off!"

Shen Yun ignored him and excitedly checked the three skills he just acquired.

They are: Blessing of Honor, Angel's Shelter, Hammer of Repentance.

[Blessing of Honor]: The recipient of the Blessing of Honor will have their Four-dimensional Attributes increased by the Radiant Knight's Spirit * 0.2. The effect lasts for 200 seconds, and the skill has a cooldown time of 300 seconds.

[Angel's Shelter]: Adds a layer of Angel's Shelter to oneself or a teammate, capable of blocking Radiant Knight's Constitution * 0.5 damage. In Angel's Shelter state, the damage impact from mental attacks is reduced by 50%.

[Hammer of Repentance]: Condenses the power of sacred radiance to cause large-scale damage to enemies within 5 meters * 10 meters in front. Hit targets have a 50% chance to betray, with the effect lasting 60 seconds (the chance of this effect applying to Elite Level monsters is greatly reduced).

After seeing these three skills, one can only say it is truly terrifyingly strong as a hidden profession.

With that Blessing of Honor, combined with Blessing of Courage.

Applying those states to any Survivor yields at least a 40% attack power boost, which is quite a frightening number.

And that Angel's Shelter skill can be described as an enhanced version of the Holy Light Shield!

With Shen Yun's current attributes, casting an Angel's Shelter, even Three-star Monsters would take several attacks to break it.

If it's Two-star Monsters, they can last a good while even when surrounded.

For One-star Monsters, there's no need to say more, it would be difficult for them even to break the defense.

As for the Hammer of Repentance, there's no need to explain.

Anyone who has been in the Holy Profession knows how ridiculous a 50% betrayal probability is.

Moreover, the attack range is broad, and the damage is high, making it an almost omnipotent divine level skill!

After calming their excitement, everyone started focusing on the Cloud Secret Realm Points leaderboard.

It was already evening, and there were three hours left until the calculation time.

At this moment.

Han Xing's group's scores had all surpassed 1000 points.

Meanwhile, the sixth-ranked Boundless only had 600 points, which was like a cliff-like gap.

With such a huge gap, no one harbored any illusions that Boundless could surpass Han Xing and his group.

There were only three hours left, and the ranking was basically set.

In this round, over 900,000 people competed for 10,000 slots.

The intensity of the competition was imaginable.

Over these ten days, people continuously surged into the top thousand, even the top hundred.

Many names also disappeared silently from the leaderboard.

Those whose names were erased either encountered insurmountable enemies in the Secret Realm challenges.

Or they were found by rival players, who physically eliminated them.

Either scenario meant they permanently left this world.

The chat channel also exploded into lively discussion.

"Brothers, place your bets on who you think will enter the top ten."

"By the way, excluding Star God, they're not accepting bets, we're betting on the other five slots."

"Damn it, if you'd said that two seconds later, I would have bet my entire fortune!"

"Hahaha! I was also about to bet everything on Star God."

The Survivor running the betting pool said speechlessly: "I think you all just want to bankrupt me!"

The chat channel was quickly filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

"Speaking of which, the sixth place should surely be Boundless, right? He already has 607 points, nearly 50 points more than the fifth-place Optimus Prime."

"Should be, if it weren't for Star River popping out halfway, it feels like Boundless had a chance at first place."

"But Alpha from the Digital Celestial Team isn't bad either, he somehow has 534 points now, closely trailing Optimus Prime."

"Indeed, the Digital Celestial Team, as the top team in Region 199, is usually quite low-key, but in terms of strength, they're not inferior to these big teams."

The crowd began a heated discussion about those famous figures in the top ten of the leaderboard.

People like Dawn from Peak of Ceasefire, Bai Yunshu from Between the Clouds, Wind Celestial Emperor from Autocratic for Ten Thousand Years, these were subjects of their discussions.

Behind these people were large teams providing support, with the most elite members helping them clear Secret Realms.

Time slipped by quietly.

Soon, it was eleven o'clock at night.

There was one hour left until the reward calculations.

Just when everyone thought the top ten list was set this time.

A stranger's name appeared in the top ten rankings.

Black Eagle.

Before this, no one had even heard of this character.

Black Eagle first pushed Bai Yunshu of the tenth spot down, then at a terrifying pace, pushed Dawn of the ninth spot to the tenth.

At the same time, Black Eagle's points continued to rise.

The chat channel exploded once again.

At this time, Bai Yunshu, who was pushed to the eleventh place, looked very upset, staring at his team members, saying coldly, "Can anyone tell me, where did this Black Eagle suddenly appear from?"

The team members remained silent.

Because Black Eagle was too low-key.

Before this, other than once appearing on the celebrity list released by Yunchen.

He hadn't appeared in the public eye again.

Even the Twilight Mercenary Corps behind him was equally low-key.

If possible, Black Eagle also preferred not to appear in public.

With his personality, he preferred to hide behind the scenes, delivering his most powerful strike at the critical moment.

But in the last hour of reward calculation, Black Eagle chose to sprint.

After all, the top ten rewards were too tempting.

Any reward he acquired would significantly boost his territory's defense strength.

So, Black Eagle also didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Originally, everyone had thought their rankings had stabilized and no further changes would happen, but because of Black Eagle's sudden rise, a strong sense of urgency emerged in their hearts.

They once again began racing against time to impact the Cloud Secret Realm.

However, before the sprint, they also mobilized all means to frantically investigate Black Eagle's information.

Black Eagle's personal information quickly flowed into the management layers of those big teams.

Everyone was shocked to find out that this Black Eagle also came from Region 107.

In other words, he came from the same place as those monsters dominating the top five of the leaderboard.

Everyone's eyes showed astonishment.

"What is going on in this Region 107, how can it produce so many monsters?"

"Having one Star River was surprising enough, and now Black Eagle pops up?"

Yet, none of them could answer.

What they didn't know was.

Black Eagle benefited significantly because of his cooperative relationship with Han Xing.

Now, the resources Black Eagle had were even no less than those of the leaders of big teams.

Thus, he also bought a lot of top-grade equipment in the trading channel, which greatly improved his strength, allowing him to maintain such a strong momentum.

...

While everyone was racing against time to impact the leaderboard.

The time came to late at night.

There was just one minute left until the leaderboard calculation.

At this time, Han Xing and the other four stood atop the city wall, waiting quietly for the reward calculation.

As soon as it turned midnight, the system notification appeared in Han Xing's ear.

[Cloud Secret Realm leaderboard has ended, your ranking: 1st place.]

[You have received the leaderboard rewards: Flamethrower Catapult Blueprint, Moonlight Holy Spring Blueprint, Minotaur Camp Map Blueprint, Wolf Cavalry Camp Map Blueprint, Lord Contract *10, One Orange Weapon Blueprint of your choice *1, Vim Divine Power Horn (Gold) *1, Spirit Core *300000.]

A huge pile of rewards was thrown at Han Xing.

Already having seen these blueprint introductions beforehand, Han Xing didn't need to check them one by one again, instead, he clicked learn on all of them directly.

After the blueprints disappeared from his backpack, several powerful blueprints appeared in Han Xing's territory construction interface.

Han Xing couldn't wait to start checking the construction requirements of these blueprints.

First of all, it was the Flamethrower Catapult blueprint he was most looking forward to.
