Under such circumstances, it would be fine if Tianjing just wanted to be a bystander in this CHF. However, if they wanted to obtain a slightly better ranking in this CHF and give everyone a satisfactory result, they would definitely have to face much more severe challenges than anyone could imagine.
Among the various pressures, Ma Dong undoubtedly gave off the most positive feeling in recent times.
That fellow had been extremely busy recently. Although he would occasionally grumble to Wang Zhong, Wang Zhong could tell that his fighting spirit was currently high.
The 10 Great Families that had given Wang Zhong a headache just so happened to be his target.
The 10 Great Families, which had always been rumoured, could be divided into the upper 5 and lower 5 families.
The upper 5 families were the Stuart Family, Mo Family, Gui Family, Vasilyevich Family and Bella Dean Family. As for the lower 5 families, they were the Musk Family, Seer Family, Zhao Family, Torres Family and Potter Family.
Seemingly all of these 10 Great Families had existed since the old era, and had experienced the baptism of the dark era. Using different methods, they had always controlled the political and economic lifelines of the Federation. As of now, they did not particularly care about their fame, and had even deliberately kept a low profile. The public only knew what they wanted the public to know. Take the former king, Bella Dean Family, for example. Many people felt that they were a toothless tiger, and were only fit to be at the bottom of the 10 Great Families. However, in the eyes of experts, they were at the level of the upper 5 families! In fact, a family like the Assassin Family might be even more famous than the 10 Great Families in the eyes of ordinary people, especially in the cities they controlled. However, in reality, they simply did not have the qualifications to truly compare with these colossal existences …
Being the number one in the world was just Ma Dong's verbal goal to motivate himself. However, if there was a day when the Assassin Family could become one of the 10 Great Families, Ma Dong felt that his life was already extremely complete. Wang Zhong could also feel that this fellow actually cared deeply about his family. In the past, he was just too marginalized. Recently, he had received the attention of his family, and could even walk with a radiant expression. This caused Hymin to roll her eyes and advise him to keep his feet on the ground and stop daydreaming.
Wang Zhong didn't feel that this was a daydream. On the contrary, he approved of Ma Dong's way of thinking. After experiencing this crisis, Ma Dong had instead glowed with exuberant vitality. This sort of 'daydream' was precisely the manifestation of his enthusiasm.
People always had dreams. As for the results, that wasn't the most important thing.
There were too many things to worry about, causing Wang Zhong's thoughts to run wild as he opened his Skylink.
In the short span of a few hours after his fight with Papada, All Mouthy King's video had already steadily climbed to second place. It could be said that if the Sanctuary didn't appear, who could compete with him! Of course, those Sanctuary Division experts would probably disdain to fight over this.
Wang Zhong himself didn't care about it, but the video ranked first had caught his attention.
"The first episode of the CHF series, the five great assassins". The video was posted by the Mo Family's official account.
As one of the top five superpowers in the Federation, the Mo Family had a very unique position in the Federation. That was because only their family's bloodline would be able to pass down a very special occupation: Heaven's Fate Master! During the Dark Age, they had saved the Federation from the brink of death many times. They possessed an extremely lofty status and were currently the number one intelligence family in the Federation. They controlled a massive amount of intelligence channels, and their status was extraordinary even among the upper five great families! Naturally, their unique combat prowess, as well as their deep and unfathomable background made it so that no other powers dared to lightly provoke them.
Being publicly acknowledged as the largest intelligence family in the Federation, coupled with their lofty status, the Mo Family's information was undoubtedly the most trustworthy in every aspect. Their annual Mo's List, which was specifically aimed at young experts, was sought after by countless youths. In the past, before every CHF great competition, everyone would refer to the Mo's List as a basic standard to measure the strength of their opponents. For this year's 100 year celebration, the CHF organising committee had become smarter, and had directly allowed the Mo Family to release the rankings for the various great occupations.
This "Five Great Assassins" was the first episode of the series. The number of people paying attention to it wasn't just the group of students that were immersed in the OP. The moment it went online, the number of views immediately overwhelmed all of All-Mouthy King's combat videos.
Wang Zhong couldn't wait to open it up.
"The CHF's Five Great Assassins, in no particular order."
As the background music in the video rang out, a beam of light suddenly shone down from the dark screen, illuminating a cold back. On the back of the clothes that resembled a black shadow, one could vaguely see the word 'Lie' written in dark red!
As the camera zoomed in, he turned his body slightly to the side, with his hands crossed before his chest. A pair of dark red steel claws extended out from the back of his hands, spanning 20 to 30 centimetres.
Despite half of his face being concealed by a black mask, and even separated by a screen, Wang Zhong was still able to feel the summoning of the grim reaper from the contours of the mask and the cold gaze in his eyes.
Martial Ghosts and Divine Emperor Academy, Gui Lie! 18 years of age, 179cm in height, 72kg in weight.
As the cold and callous gaze came to a stop, Gui Lie's information appeared on the screen.
The Gui Family of the 5 Great Families?
Wang Zhong paid attention to the pair of eyes. This person, what a heavy killing intent … he was different from those fellows that had been training in the OP. This was a genuine assassin, or in other words, a genuine professional assassin. Without mentioning his strength, what kind of experiences did he have to go through to nurture such a gaze? That gaze simply didn't belong to a 19 year old youth, or any other normal person.
The glow in Gui Lie's eyes quickly dimmed. When the lights lit up once again, a hand and a blade appeared under the circular beam of light.
It was a small double-edged blade without a handle. It appeared to possess its own will, as the slender hand was quietly stretched out. Not even a single finger had moved. Yet, the entire blade was using an incomprehensible method to rapidly move around his fingers.
This blade … it's so familiar.
Wang Zhong quickly recognised it. It was extremely similar to the 10 Blade Stream Sword Squadron he had crossed hands with in the OP. However, it was much larger and thicker than the small blade. Furthermore, it was only a small blade, yet it was able to rely on its speed to create a feeling of several blades. The fast blade shadows appeared as though there were at least 4 to 5 blades revolving around his fingers.
Whoosh! The speed of the blade abruptly increased, before the small blade suddenly disappeared. Separated by the virtual screen, only extremely attentive people would be able to see the five fingers slicing through the air!
This … how fast was this blade speed?
Wang Zhong could not help but feel slightly shocked.
At this moment, the hand finally moved. With a casual clench of his slender fingers, the disappeared small blade appeared once again, firmly clamped between two fingers. The circular beam of light expanded, before a youth with a somewhat lazy smile on his face appeared on the screen.
Bierlia Academy, Eddie Brooks! 20 years of age, 184cm in height, 75kg in weight.
