"This is …"
When Zhao Yueru saw Frostflame's Wrath wrapped in a red and white glow, she was immediately captivated.
As Frostflame's Wrath was a Fragmented Legendary Weapon, the aura it radiated was enough to make ordinary players feel uncomfortable. The ambient Mana flowed towards the Frostflame's Wrath uncontrollably, instantly becoming the center of attention in the room.
Zhao Yueru wasn't the only one to notice this. Even Gentle Snow and the others noticed Frostflame's extraordinariness.
"Could this be …" Gentle Snow felt a sense of deja vu as she looked at Frostflame's Wrath. Suddenly, she thought of a possibility. However, she quickly shook her head, thinking that such a possibility was unlikely.
However, when Zhao Yueru accepted Frostflame's Wrath and inspected its Attributes, she was stupefied.
"How is this possible?! This is … a Fragmented … Legendary item! "Zhao Yueru couldn't believe her eyes.
A single Epic item would cost the various large Guilds an astronomical amount of manpower and resources. First-rate Guilds would be fortunate to obtain seven or eight Fragmented Legendary items. Even superpowers had very limited Fragmented Legendary items.
However, even now, she had never heard of any superpower obtaining a Fragmented Legendary item. Even first-rate Guilds could only dream of obtaining one.
Yet, Shifeng had actually revealed a Fragmented Legendary staff …
For a moment, she even wondered if Shifeng really didn't have a backer.
"You need to keep this staff a secret. You should know how severe the consequences will be if word of this gets out," Shifeng quietly reminded Zhao Yueru.
Although he had revealed Frostflame's Wrath, not just any player could inspect it. Only players with ED could. Hence, aside from Zhao Yueru, who had obtained Frostflame's Wrath, no one else in the room knew that it was a Fragmented Legendary item, including Gentle Snow. However, since Gentle Snow had obtained a Fragmented Legendary item in the past, she should be able to make some guesses. To other players, however, the staff was, at most, a top-tier Epic Weapon.
After all, Fragmented Legendary items were simply too rare. Even Shadow hadn't obtained a single Fragmented Legendary item in the past, much less now.
"Mhm." Zhao Yueru nodded heavily. She had never thought that Shifeng would be willing to let her use the incomparably precious Frostflame's Wrath. Naturally, she would not reveal the Guild's secret.
"Alright, before you go on stage, just equip these All-rounded Devices. As for how far you can go, that will depend on yourselves." Shifeng then took out ten All-rounded Devices, each of which could last for four hours, one hour longer than the Titan Device. Two All-rounded Devices should be enough to last until the end of the ranking competition.
During PvP in the ranking competition, aside from items like Magic Scrolls, Frost Grenades, and Berserk Potions, everything else was allowed.
…
Inside the Black Dragon Empire's Underground Arena, which could accommodate 100,000 people, players filled the venue. The competition was even livelier than the competition in the Dark Arena. Unlike the Dark Arena, the ranking competition didn't have such strict restrictions. Any second-rate Guild in the empire could attend. Moreover, famous players and adventurer teams in the Black Dragon Empire had also received invitations. Filling the Underground Arena's largest venue was a piece of cake.
"There are so many players participating in the competition this time!"
"I know, right? Last time, the ranking competition was only held in the Black Dragon Empire. I've heard that the various superpowers have sent quite a few newcomers to the competition this time. In addition, famous experts from the neighboring kingdoms have also come. Hence, the number of official competition slots has doubled. Now, 6,400 players can participate in the competition. Most likely, many of the players that managed to rank among the top 100 in the previous competition will be eliminated."
"Hahaha! Our Hundred Beast adventurer team's commander and vice commander will definitely rank within the top 200 of the Black Dragon Empire's overall ranking! That way, our adventurer team will become one of the Black Dragon Empire's top 30 adventurer teams!"
"Top 200? Your Hundred Beast adventurer team only ranked 40th in the previous competition. You'd be lucky to have someone among the top 500. I've heard that the FFF adventurer team's goal is to get two of its members into the top 100 this time. After all, the various superpowers' newcomers are frightening every year. Not to mention, several hundred top and well-known adventurer teams from the neighboring kingdoms are participating. "
"That's right. Don't forget that this isn't just a competition between adventurer teams. The Black Dragon Empire's various large Guilds are also participating in this competition. Their foundations are much stronger than adventurer teams'. Any of the top-tier experts in a second-rate Guild can easily crush the various well-known adventurer teams. Let alone first-rate Guilds, only top-tier adventurer teams have a chance of competing with them. Otherwise, a large-scale adventurer team like the FFF wouldn't have set its sights so low."
At this moment, everyone in the audience was discussing the Wind Cloud Competition fervently. All of them were extremely excited.
Ordinary players could only watch such a competition once a month, and it was the competition with the highest standards that ordinary players could witness. Many players in the Black Dragon Empire dreamed of watching one of the competition's arenas in person.
However, the most enviable thing was still the 30 VIP rooms. In these 30 VIP rooms, one could use the closest distance to watch the situation of the 10 battle stages. It was as if they were standing at the side. The feeling was completely different from being in the audience seats.
Only, there were a limited number of VIP rooms available. Aside from the various superpowers, only first-rate Guilds, second-rate Guilds, and the Black Dragon Empire's top adventurer teams could enjoy the VIP rooms. The other powers could only watch from the sidelines.
While everyone discussed the competition fervently, Yuan Tiexin, the Secret Pavilion's host, appeared on the main stage in the center of the competition. Immediately, the crowd erupted into cheers.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Black Dragon Empire's ranking competition that takes place once a month. Due to the large number of participants this time, the competition's quota and rules have changed slightly. First, there will be a total of 6,400 players participating in the official competition, and they will be randomly assigned to the ten arenas. Afterward, each player will compete in 30 matches randomly selected by the system. Each victory will award one point. In the end, the top 100 players with the most points will be selected from each arena.
"Once you enter the main stage, the top three Guilds and adventurer teams in terms of overall strength will receive an invitation to the Secret Pavilion's internal auction. I won't waste everyone's time. The competition will now begin!"
After Yuan Tiexin announced the start of the ranking competition, the crowd in the venue grew excited once more. At the same time, the participating players also felt a lot of pressure. They had never thought that 5,400 players would be eliminated in the preliminary round, leaving only 1,000 players to compete in the ranking competition.
These 6,400 players weren't ordinary players. Every one of them was an expert, yet so many had been eliminated. This competition was far crueler than the previous competition, which had eliminated 3,200 players.
After Yuan Tiexin finished speaking, the system began to randomly divide the 6,400 players into groups. Each group consisted of 640 players, and only 100 players would participate in the ranking competition. Afterward, the various large Guilds and adventurer teams' overall rankings would be determined based on the ranking competition's results.
