Dark Night Empire, Dark Night City:
Shifeng led nine Shiuse Qiangwei's carefully selected experts out of the Teleportation Hall. As soon as they exited the hall, they were greeted by a large crowd of expert players.
Many of these independent players were Level 55 or above, and they all wore excellent equipment. Many of them even wore Level 50 Secret-Silver Equipment. More than 5,000 of these players made their way to Dark Night City's business district as if they were on a pilgrimage.
In other words, more than 5,000 experts had gathered on this street …
Why are there so many experts? Shifeng was surprised to see so many experts on the street.
While it was true that an empire's imperial capital attracted a large number of experts, he had never seen such a high density of experts. Not even the Four Great Empires' imperial capitals had such a high density of experts.
While Shifeng was surprised by the number of players on the street, a shout came from a short distance away.
"Those who wish to become Tier 2 Traveling Bards should register with Starlink as soon as possible! The deadline will end in half an hour!"
When the crowd heard this shout, they hastened their steps and dashed toward the source of the shout.
"Starlink is stingy. It clearly controls the passage to the Sea of Trees, yet it's only recruiting 200 people."
"I know, right? How can 200 slots be enough? I've heard that a large number of players have signed up since a dozen or so hours ago. There are at least 100,000 players now. The most infuriating part is that the selection isn't just based on a player's strength, but also their mastery of magic arrays. I'm depressed. Why would a Berserker like me study magic arrays? Even magical class players rarely learn magic arrays. After all, magic arrays don't increase a player's strength, and they'd have to waste a lot of time researching them. "
"However, I've heard that Starlink's main force members will receive benefits as long as they complete their Promotion Quest. It'll be a true leap into the dragon's gate."
"If you don't wish to compete with Starlink, you can join Unyielding Soul. Shortly after Starlink began its recruitment, Unyielding Soul started recruiting as well. However, it only wants 100 slots. Similarly, if you complete your Promotion Quest, you'll receive benefits as a main force member."
"I never thought that the Promotion Quest would depend on a player's mastery of magic arrays. If I had known, I would've studied magic arrays long ago. I might've been selected already. Even if I didn't complete my Promotion Quest, I could've at least become a core member."
…
The players on both sides of the street chatted as they watched Starlink's and Unyielding Soul's players swarm towards them. They discussed the two Guilds' sudden recruitment conditions. At the same time, they regretted not learning magic arrays sooner. They also regretted that they didn't even have a chance to register now.
"Starlink is suddenly recruiting expert players with magic arrays?" When a Shifeng heard the players' discussion, his expression changed slightly. "Could it be that news about Unyielding Soul has been leaked?"
Currently, aside from himself and Shiuse Qiangwei, only Unyielding Soul's members knew of the method to become a Tier 2 Special Class Traveling Bard. The only explanation for Starlink's actions was that it had discovered a method to increase its success rate.
Otherwise, Starlink wouldn't have used such a special recruitment condition. Magic arrays were only useful to Lifestyle players at this stage of the game. To combat players, learning magic arrays would be of little help. Moreover, the magic array was only useful to magical classes. It wouldn't be of any help to physical classes.
By the time Shifeng and his team reached Unyielding Soul's rendezvous point in the Purple Night Plaza, they were greeted by the sight of over 10,000 players from the three Guilds. Every one of these players wore at least Level 50 Secret-Silver Equipment, and some even wielded Level 50 Dark-Gold Weapons. This place was practically a weapons and equipment festival. The surrounding expert players looked on with envy.
Only the three Guilds' members were allowed to enter the Purple Night Plaza. Outsiders could only watch from the sidelines.
When the Shifeng arrived in the plaza, Mu Lingsha, who had been waiting for him for some time, led the Shifeng's group through the area guarded by Unyielding Soul's members. Their arrival immediately attracted the attention of many nearby players.
"Who are they? Didn't they say that the three Guilds had reserved this place? "
"Look at their Guild Emblems. They don't look like Unyielding Soul's members!"
"I think I've seen that Guild Emblem somewhere before. Right, that's the emblem of the Ling YI Society, which had garrisoned the Secret Stone Fortress in the Ore Empire. However, why are the Ling YI Society's members here? Didn't they say that the three Guilds' first-rate subordinate Guilds weren't allowed to enter the Sea of Trees?"
"The Ling YI Society is quite capable. They actually managed to curry favor with Unyielding Soul and secure some entry slots."
"Tch. So what if they've secured entry slots? They might not even succeed in their Promotion Quests! "
The spectating players and the various large Guilds' members were indescribably jealous of the Shifeng's group. After all, they could challenge their Promotion Quests to Tier 2 Traveling Bard. So long as they succeeded in their Promotion Quests, they'd be of great help to Guild teams in the future. Many large Guilds dreamed of such an opportunity.
After the Shifeng's group entered the Purple Night Plaza, the nine Ling Yi members that followed the Shifeng grew nervous. This was the first time they had seen such a large group of players.
Tens of thousands of players from the three superpowers had gathered here. Every player in the plaza was a rare expert in the kingdom. Now that all three superpowers had gathered here, it was easy to imagine the pressure and pressure they felt. Even first-rate Guilds' upper echelons would have a hard time experiencing such a situation.
Moreover, Unyielding Soul and Starlink's members stood on either side of the plaza's center, ready to fight. The atmosphere in the plaza had dropped to a freezing point. Only Crimson Emperor's members had a slightly better atmosphere. However, they still planned to watch from the sidelines and reap the spoils later. If given the opportunity, they'd definitely take action …
"Bright Dawn, I truly never thought that Unyielding Soul's Vice Guild Leader would betray his Guild and join Starlink. Just what benefits did they offer you?" Unyielding Heart demanded as he glared at the cold man carrying a white bone greatsword beside Lu Xingluo, his eyes burning with rage.
When the Shifeng saw the cold man standing beside Starlink, he was stunned.
The cold man before him was none other than Yuan Zhan, Unyielding Soul's Third Vice Guild Leader, Bright Dawn, a Tier 2 Undead Knight known as the Undead Sword by the Secret Pavilion.
In Unyielding Soul, Yuan Zhan was as strong as Unyielding Heart. He was one of Unyielding Soul's three main pillars.
Bright Dawn had never betrayed Unyielding Soul, yet now, he had betrayed Unyielding Soul. This was completely different from the history he was familiar with.
