PS: Thank you to Vanishing Sword, Nostalgic Death, Wuwuwu for your good support!
After reading the system announcements, Yang Rui could roughly guess the reason behind the changes in the Western Qiang Rebel Army. As the game progressed forward, the situation naturally changed. What Yang Rui did not expect was that Emperor Han Ling had actually given two players out of the Eight Lieutenants of the West Garden!
Based on the current strength of the players, there were not many Basic Generals and above. For example, Yang Rui had always been paying attention to the accumulation of skill books and the cultivation of Neigong. Currently, he was only an Advanced General. Moreover, Yang Rui should be considered as one of the top players in terms of strength. Therefore, the strength of the players was still far from the strength of the NPCs!
It could be said that the setting of the Eight Lieutenants of the West Garden also gave the players a chance to show off. If they could stand out among the players, not only would they establish an image among the players, they would also have a corresponding influence among the NPCs. Looking at the history of the Eight Lieutenants of the West Garden, most of them were either heroes who ruled over a region or famous generals who charged and broke through enemy lines!
Therefore, the Eight Lieutenants of the West Garden was not as simple as a title. At the same time, it was also a kind of qualification and an important way to increase one's personal influence. On this point, Yang Rui already had some experience. Whether it was the influence of the crusade against the Yellow Turban when he subdued Gao Shun, or the help of the Qingzhou Provincial Governor in clearing the Yanmen Pass, they had all played an unexpected role.
Yang Rui had thought of this, so not long after seeing the system announcements, he signed up. At this time, the respawn of the Western Qiang Rebel Army had changed. Yang Rui did not have much meaning in staying in Western Liang. It was just to capture some horses.
However, if it was just a simple matter of capturing horses. The soldiers in Le Du City could also do it. At this time, due to the Western Qiang Rebel Army's shift in power, they had almost no pressure to defend themselves. Going out to capture horses was not a problem.
There was less than a day before the selection of Lieutenants, so Yang Rui did not go out. He only captured wild horses near Le Du City and planned to teleport to Luoyang Imperial City after dark.
The system announcement had made it very clear that those who participated in the group arena could use the free teleportation at any time. After nightfall, Yang Rui brought Gao Shun, Zhang Ning, and Cheng Yu to Luoyang Imperial City. He wanted to ask Zuo Feng about the arena selection in advance.
Coincidentally, at this time, Zuo Feng and the other eunuchs were also looking for Yang Rui. Their purpose was to strive for Yang Rui to be able to join the Eight Commandants of the West Garden, so that they could fight for a greater voice for the eunuch group. In the hearts of these eunuchs, Yang Rui was already a very reliable player candidate.
"… Please rest assured, Master Zuo. Blazing Sun will do his best. Strive to be one of the eight military officers of the West Park! "
For Zuo Feng's initiative to fight for it, Yang Rui naturally agreed very happily. Although the group of relatives and the group of eunuchs had reached the point where they were like fire and water, Yang Rui felt that cooperating with the group of eunuchs should be able to obtain more practical benefits.
"Yes, I'm not worried about Lie Yang's abilities. It's just that I want to ensure that I can obtain the position of Lieutenant. Blazing Sun still needs to do his best! Of course, the Middle Attendants and I will not stand by and do nothing. Zhang Hou has already asked me to provide some help to Blazing Sun. I don't know if Blazing Sun wants equipment or skills. Or is it some other kind of medicinal pill? "
Zuo Feng's next words surprised Yang Rui. It was good to have a backer. He did not expect that in order to help Yang Rui successfully obtain the military officer position, the eunuch group was prepared to provide some substantial help, including skills!
For a long time, Yang Rui had been worrying about skills. Although his current Neigong level had reached the level of an Advanced General, he had not been able to obtain a suitable Advanced Special Skill Book. This greatly limited the increase of Yang Rui's combat power. Now that Zuo Feng had brought it up, this was undoubtedly a great opportunity!
"Thank you, Master Zuo! Since Master Zuo said so, Blazing Sun really does have something to ask of Master Zuo. Ever since Blazing Sun changed to a Beginner General, I have been using the Six Forms of Wild Goose Fall. I have not been able to find a suitable Advanced Special Skill Book. I wonder if Master Zuo … "Yang Rui said.
"Hehehe … I thought it was something difficult, but it's just a Advanced Special Skill Book! Men, quickly go to our treasury and see if there are any Skill Books related to the Six Forms of Wild Goose Fall mentioned by Master Blazing Sun. Bring them all to me! "
Without waiting for Yang Rui to finish speaking, Zuo Feng had already understood Yang Rui's meaning and immediately ordered his men to look for them. From his tone, it seemed that this matter was not difficult.
Sure enough, it did not take long for the servant who went to look for the Skill Books to return. At the same time, there were a few more Skill Books in his hands. When he came closer, under Zuo Feng's signal, he directly handed the Skill Books in his hands to Yang Rui.
"Wild Goose Fall 24 Forms, Wild Goose Fall 49 Forms, Wild Goose Fall 81 Forms, Wild Goose Fall 24 Forms * Soul …"
Zuo Feng's servant found a total of 6 Skill Books for Yang Rui. It actually covered the three stages of Special Skill Advancement, Special Skill Ultimate Skill, and Special Skill Derivative Skill. At the same time, it also included the two series of Normal and Soul Type Skill Books.
"The quality of the Spear Technique that Blazing Sun practiced is also good. Therefore, we coincidentally found a few Skill Books in our treasury. Blazing Sun can choose one of these Skill Books to practice …"
Although he took out 6 Skill Books at once, Zuo Feng indicated that Yang Rui could only choose one Skill Book for his own use. Wasn't this clearly to bait Yang Rui's appetite? Through this action, Zuo Feng should also have the purpose of showing off to Yang Rui. He clearly told Yang Rui that he had a follow-up Special Skill Method so that Yang Rui would understand the value of being on good terms with him.
At the same time, Yang Rui also understood the reason why Zuo Feng could take out so many Wild Goose Fall Series Skill Books at once. This Spear Technique was actually quite famous. Therefore, it was normal for Zuo Feng to have a reserve.
Fortunately, there was a set of Soul Type Skill Books. Although Yang Rui was very envious of that Wild Goose Fall 81 Forms' Special Skill Derivative Skill Book, Soul Type Skill Book. Its value was also the highest among the 6 Skill Books. But in the end, Yang Rui still followed Zuo Feng's instructions and chose the Special Skill Advancement Skill Book, Wild Goose Fall 24 Forms * Soul Type Skill Book.
"Wild Goose Fall 24 Forms * Soul Type Skill Book: Special Skill Advancement Skill Book. Learn to master the corresponding Special Skill Advancement Skill. Requirement: Beginner Neigong Level 0, Special Skill Proficiency Level 3 100%, Strength Requirement: 75 points. "
With this Skill Book, Yang Rui could finally break through the shackles of being unable to progress in skills for a long time. Moreover, Yang Rui had previously obtained the related Special Skill Ultimate Skill Book, Wild Goose Fall 49 Forms * Soul Type Skill Book, Wild Goose Fall 49 Forms * Soul. Now that his Neigong Level had reached the relevant requirements, as long as the Special Skill Advancement Skill Proficiency was maxed out, he could immediately continue to break through!
After getting the Skill Book. Yang Rui hurriedly excused himself from Zuo Feng and asked Zuo Feng Shen for a courtyard. He clapped his hands and learned the Skill Book. Then, he used it in the courtyard.
This Skill Book originally belonged to the same system as Yang Rui's Special Skill. Therefore, Yang Rui's speed of learning was very fast. In less than half an hour, he had roughly grasped the Xing Yi of this Advanced Skill, and the Skill Proficiency also increased rapidly. Even so. If he wanted to fully display the power of Wild Goose Fall 24 Forms, he would probably need to reach Level 3 Proficiency. At present, Yang Rui could at most fire a dozen shots at the same time.
Yang Rui's last-minute practice was mostly due to the novelty of the newly mastered skill. After about an hour or so, Yang Rui put away his gun and recovered. Moreover, practicing and recovering was also temporary. When the Stamina and Neigong Strength were almost full. Yang Rui went back to his room and lay on his bed to sleep. He slept until late the next day.
"System Notification: Respected player Blazing Sun, your first opponent is Thorns and Roses. The winner will enter the next round of the competition. If no player can win within a quarter of an hour. The system will judge based on the performance in the competition. Please give it your all! "
Before the competition, Yang Rui had a rare good sleep. The next morning, he was woken up by Zuo Feng's servant. When Yang Rui arrived at the entrance of the West Park Arena. The competition was about to begin. Soon, Yang Rui met his first opponent — — Thorns and Roses. This opponent's name, appearance, and temperament reminded Yang Rui of the girls from the Hundred Flower Alliance.
However, Yang Rui did not care who his opponent was. As soon as he came up, he tried out his new advanced special skill. As a result, he stabbed out fifteen or sixteen times in one move. Before his opponent could react, the fight was already over!
Although the average strength of the current player group had increased, there was basically no one who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Yang Rui. Moreover, Thorns and Roses' standard was not even a Beginner General. Therefore, Yang Rui eliminated her beautifully at the start of the competition.
After that, Yang Rui easily eliminated several opponents in succession. He also discovered some hidden settings of the arena. The competition was carried out in a virtual arena space opened up by the system. There was no audience or anything like that. Moreover, regardless of victory or defeat, the state of the participating players would be restored to normal after the competition. Furthermore, there was a time limit, so there was basically no such thing as holding back. The players would almost always go all out during the competition.
With Yang Rui's strength, he naturally made it to the end very smoothly. However, in the later rounds, Yang Rui met more familiar faces. Starlight Sky, Ironblood Sword, and Tracer Soul were all encountered by Yang Rui.
During the competition with these three people, Yang Rui's performance was not as eye-catching as before. He also intended to test the strength of these people. After testing them, he discovered that these players' leaders had all reached the pinnacle of Intermediate General. Tracer Dragon Soul even appeared with the strength of an Advanced General. This made Yang Rui slightly surprised.
In fact, Yang Rui did not know that Tracer Dragon Soul's Advanced General status appeared after consuming a pill. In the previous round, he even used the same method to defeat Roly Round Meatball, who was known as the number one player in Asia's eSports. At this time, the competition was not only about personal strength, but also the strength of the organizations behind these leaders. This was something that Yang Rui did not know.
Although Tracer Dragon Soul had the same strength as Yang Rui, and his inner strength was not much different from Yang Rui's, at least that was what he displayed. However, compared to Yang Rui, his skills were a level lower.
Tracer Dragon Soul's weapon was a long sword, and his swordsmanship was at the level of a special skill. When he fought against Yang Rui, he was already a level lower. Furthermore, the equipment on Yang Rui's body, whether it was the Gold ranked Billowing Silver Armour, Gold ranked Trident Spear, or the Silver Stream War Medal, which gave + 7 to all dimensional attributes, as well as the battle set ornaments, were all the best equipment in the current game stage. They were a level higher than Tracer Dragon Soul.
Therefore, the outcome of this competition was not hard to imagine. However, Yang Rui did not spend so much effort to determine life and death. As this was already the last round of the competition, Yang Rui and Tracer Dragon Soul were both confirmed to be part of the West Park's Eight Colonels. Therefore, with the help of the system's evaluation, Yang Rui won!
"System Announcement: Congratulations to player Blazing Sun for obtaining first place in the arena competition and obtaining the qualifications to be part of the West Park's Eight Colonels. Blazing Sun is conferred the title of Left Colonel …"
