Holy Flame City, Violet Sword's Residence:
Over 50 Level 110-plus players were currently sparring and experimenting with various combat techniques inside a castle made entirely of Origin Star Stone. Not only were these players' combat standards very high, with the weakest among them being at the Refinement Realm standard. Many of them were even Flowing Water Realm experts or above. Moreover, every one of them was able to integrate combat techniques with Skills and Spells smoothly. Ordinary Refinement Realm experts were no match for these players.
"All of you need to work harder. Not only does the activation of the Star Castle cost a lot of Mana Stones, but there are also a limited number of slots available to train inside. If you can't integrate your Advanced Combat Techniques with your Skills and Spells by next week's test, a large number of newcomers will take your place!" A scarred, middle-aged man in dark-gray armor shouted as he watched the training players in the castle's hall.
"Instructor Wildfire, aren't you being a little too demanding? Not everyone can perfectly integrate their Advanced Combat Techniques with their Skills and Spells in just one week like Solitary Frost," a crimson-haired woman in blue mage robes said, shaking her head as she looked at the scarred, middle-aged man.
"I'm already asking very little of them. I'm only asking them to integrate their Advanced Combat Techniques with their Skills and Spells within ten days. If it were Solitary Frost, I'd give him three days at most, yet half the time has already passed. Look at these newcomers. They can't even integrate their Advanced Combat Techniques with their Skills and Spells. The Guild's newcomers are getting worse with each generation," Wildfire said, shaking his head. Wildfighter looked at the rookies who were training hard and said in dissatisfaction, "Compared to your generation, we're far behind."
"Our generation?" The crimson-haired woman revealed a bitter smile when she heard Wildfire's words. "Our generation only has that monster commander. The others aren't much stronger than these newcomers."
"Why are you being so humble? Your talent isn't the slightest bit inferior to Solitary Frost's. It's just that you've learned too many things and aren't as focused as Solitary Frost. Otherwise, you could've become the commander of Violet Sword's second trump card legion by now," Wildfire said, rolling his eyes at the crimson-haired woman.
This was because the crimson-haired woman before him was none other than the Secret Pavilion's Thousand-Hand Witch. At the same time, she was also the vice commander of Violet Sword's number one trump card legion, Crimson Star. Her combat standards were not the slightest bit inferior to Shi Feng's. Meanwhile, if they were to fight, Shi Feng's chances of winning wouldn't exceed 30%.
"It looks like Coach Wildfire really admires Solitary Frost. Otherwise, he wouldn't have held back in the previous match. He purposely tied with Solitary Frost so that Solitary Frost would be confident and proud of himself," the red-haired woman said.
"Let's not talk about this matter anymore. Although I held back in that battle, I only held back my ultimate move. Gu Han is still very young and has a lot of room for growth in the future. It's only a matter of time before I lose to him." Wildfire chuckled. "Moreover, isn't it because of that battle that Instructor Torre was willing to teach him?"
"That's right. I never thought that Instructor Torre would actually teach someone. I was quite surprised back then. It's a pity that the Guild lacks Lifestyle Masters right now, and it takes too long to produce that item. Otherwise, Solitary Frost would've had a chance to enter the ancient secret land and receive Instructor Torre's personal guidance. Once he comes out, he'll definitely be able to defeat you, Instructor Wildfire," Crimson Star said, nodding and smiling.
"It won't be long before that happens. When Solitary Frost and the others return to participate in the family competition, the disobedient Long Family will be finished. If the Long Family still wishes to dominate the Azure Chamber of Commerce, they'll have to listen to us obediently and focus on producing that item. Otherwise, the Zeus Corporation will definitely hand over Azure's leadership to another family," Wildfire said confidently.
"I've heard that the Long Family also has a powerful genius named Silk Moon. Her strength has always been second only to Solitary Frost's. If Silk Moon manages to secure second place, the Long Family's position in the family competition might not be guaranteed," Crimson Star said.
"Relax. Instructor Torre has personally taught Yan Xiaoqian. Her strength has already improved significantly. As long as Silk Moon hasn't reached the Domain Realm, she won't be a match for Yan Xiaoqian," Wildfire said confidently.
Although Solitary Frost was talented, Yan Xiaoqian wasn't much weaker than him. Only, her talent had been buried, and she had spent too much time on alchemy. She hadn't been able to develop her true strength. However, after receiving Instructor Torre's guidance, she was definitely one of the strongest experts below the Domain Realm.
"I don't know about that, but I heard a rumor by chance that the Fire Relayer seems to be guiding Silk Moon. I can't confirm the specifics, but my friend's source is very reliable, so it should be true," Crimson Star said.
"What? The Flame Relayer has taken a liking to Silk Moon? How is that possible? Even when Instructor Torre personally asked the Flame Relayer to guide the commander, the Flame Relayer refused. Why would he take a liking to that little girl? "Wildfire was shocked.
The Flame Relayer had always been a legend in the virtual gaming world. Nobody knew the Flame Relayer's true identity, nor did they know how old the Flame Relayer was. However, the Flame Relayer had appeared in the various virtual reality games to guide talented players. According to rumors, Mythology's Guild Leader, one of the Five Great Super Guilds, had received the Flame Relayer's guidance. Mythology's Guild Leader had only managed to develop the Guild into a Super Guild and single-handedly suppress all other superpowers, allowing Mythology to become one of the Five Great Super Guilds.
Yet, a little girl from the Azure Chamber of Commerce, whose talent was far inferior to Solitary Frost's and the commander's, had actually received the personal guidance of the Flame Relayer. How could anyone believe this?
"I don't know. According to rumors, the Flame Relayer has his own way of selecting his disciples. Perhaps Silk Moon has something special about her," Crimson Star said, shaking her head. In reality, she was also very curious as to why the Flame Relayer had taken a liking to Silk Moon.
"If the Flame Relayer really is personally guiding Silk Moon, then Yan Xiaoqian will be in danger," Wildfighter said worriedly.
Solitary Frost's position as the number one spot in the virtual gaming world was unshakeable, even if Silk Moon had the Flame Relayer's guidance. After all, reaching the Domain Realm from the Void Realm was a qualitative change. It wasn't something that could be achieved in a short time. Otherwise, Domain Realm experts would still be so rare.
Solitary Frost's position as the number one spot was not a problem. However, second place would be a problem. After all, Yan Xiaoqian had yet to reach the Domain Realm, and Silk Moon had the Flame Relayer's guidance.
However, while Wildfighter and Crimson Star were quietly discussing the matter, a white-haired, elderly man suddenly entered the hall. Both Wildfighter and Crimson Star hurriedly went to greet him.
This elderly man was none other than Instructor Torre, Violet Sword's legendary figure.
However, as soon as the elderly man entered the hall, the atmosphere in the room became abnormally cold. Even Wildfighter and Crimson Star shuddered when they felt this.
"Instructor Torre, didn't you send Solitary Frost and the others to the family competition? Did something happen? "Wildfighter asked curiously, sensing that something was amiss." I did.
"I did, but as soon as I returned, I received a message from Solitary Frost. Solitary Frost's group lost Azure's family competition. Moreover, the Long Family took first place!" Torre said, his eyes flashing with rage.
"Lost? Solitary Frost lost? How is that possible? "Wildfighter was stunned. He then asked," Could it be the Long Family's Silk Moon? "
"No. According to Solitary Frost, it was the Long Family's Second Miss, Silent Wonder," Torre said, shaking his head.
"It wasn't Silk Moon?" Wildfighter's eyes widened in shock. For a moment, he felt that Instructor Torre was lying to him. "Isn't Silent Wonder an alchemy expert? Moreover, based on the information I received, she's only at the Flowing Water Realm. How could she have defeated Solitary Frost? "
A Flowing Water Realm expert could defeat a Domain Realm expert in a competition of techniques. Who would believe such a thing?
"Now that the Long Family has taken first place, doesn't that mean the Long Family's dominance over the competition is secure?" Crimson Star asked, frowning.
Lifestyle Masters were crucial to Violet Sword's future development, especially when it came to alchemy. According to rumors, Silent Wonder was only half a step away from becoming a Grandmaster Alchemist. She was a talent that Violet Sword desperately needed.
"There's no need to worry about that. I'm sure the Zeus Corporation will take care of it. Even if the Long Family doesn't agree, they'll agree," Torre said, chuckling. "However, Solitary Frost and the others have truly disappointed me this time. They actually lost to a little girl who hasn't even reached the Domain Realm. It seems I've been too lenient on them. After this, they don't need to see me again. They should reflect on their mistakes."
Torre had never worried about Violet Sword's plans, but he had never thought that Solitary Frost and the others would lose. Moreover, they had lost to someone with lower combat standards than Solitary Frost and the others.
This was simply a great humiliation!
"Instructor Torre, isn't this …" Wildfighter was shocked when he heard Torre's words. Hurriedly, he tried to dissuade Torre.
However, as Wildfighter was about to dissuade Torre, a Tier 3 Assassin suddenly appeared before them.
"Reporting! Someone outside the Residence claims to be the Guild Leader of the Ling YI Society and wishes to speak with our Guild's upper echelons about Azure. Do you wish to meet them?" the Tier 3 Assassin reported respectfully.
"The Ling YI Society? Isn't that the Guild Silent Wonder has always been a member of?" Wildfighter asked curiously. "Why are they here? Do you want us to change our plans for Azure? "
"What kind of Guild do they think Violet Sword is? Do they think they can meet us whenever they want?" Torre said coldly as he glared at the Tier 3 Assassin. "Tell them to scram!"
