"Good. I like a man with backbone. If you’ve got the guts, take a slash from me head-on!" Gao Neng said, then charged forward.

"One slash? Hahaha... I could take ten of your slashes without breaking a sweat!" The Eagle-eyed Man laughed. ’What a joke. I’m a Tier Seven Mid Stage powerhouse.’

Gao Neng was merely Tier Six.

’Does he really think he can take down a Tier Seven with a single slash?’

’That’s not how you bluff.’

The Eagle-eyed Man sneered, but inwardly he was exceptionally cautious. He had, after all, seen Gao Neng’s battle at the Huashan Ancient Sect.

Twenty Tier Sixes, all with maximum talent.

’That’s far from ordinary!’

"Take this! Three Slashes in One!" Gao Neng roared, leaping into the air with overwhelming power.

"Too young and reckless! You think jumping high makes your attack more powerful? You’re left with no footing in the air! How naive!" The Eagle-eyed Man had initially been wary, but seeing Gao Neng leap so high, he couldn’t help but sneer.

’He hasn’t even gauged his opponent’s strength.’

’Leaping right at the start of the fight.’

’Does he think he’s fighting someone at his own tier?’

’What is this if not a blatant opening?’

As the Eagle-eyed Man spoke, he sank into his stance. He was done defending; he would strike from below and skewer Gao Neng with an upward slash.

But just as he was about to leap, something suddenly grabbed hold of his legs.

"..."

’Something’s wrong!’

The Eagle-eyed Man’s mind raced.

But it was too late. The Flying Earth Dragon’s sneak attack had landed.

At the same time, Gao Neng’s slash came down from above.

BOOM!

In a panic, the Eagle-eyed Man managed to block Gao Neng’s slash, but it wasn’t easy. His entire body felt like it had been struck by lightning, and his own blade was cracked from the blow.

The Eagle-eyed Man was utterly shocked.

One slash.

’It actually damaged my weapon?’

"What is that blade?!" The Eagle-eyed Man was genuinely startled. The weapon in Gao Neng’s hand was clearly no ordinary blade; it was at least two tiers higher than his own.

"A butcher’s knife!" Gao Neng struck again without the slightest hesitation, pressing his advantage. It was the perfect moment to go for the kill.

BOOM!

Another slash.

The Eagle-eyed Man staggered backward.

In desperation, a dense green light erupted from his feet, forcibly blasting away the Flying Earth Dragon that had been clinging to his legs.

But just then, Shen Ning’Er arrived.

SWISH!

Her spear lanced out.

It was as fast as a bolt of lightning.

SQUELCH!

The spear pierced the Eagle-eyed Man’s shoulder. He hadn’t even had a chance to defend.

Then, Shen Ning’Er accelerated again, closing the distance like a charging cannonball and pinning the Eagle-eyed Man to the ground with her spear.

The scene was incredibly familiar to Gao Neng.

The last time they were on the battlefield, Shen Ning’Er had used this exact move to pin Mu Feifei to the ground. And now, she was using it again.

But this time, her target was a high-tier expert.

"The Dragon List Geniuses are truly extraordinary. One is utterly shameless, and the other is terrifyingly strong!" The Eagle-eyed Man couldn’t believe he’d been injured in such a short amount of time.

’I’m a high-tier expert, for crying out loud.’

’Getting suppressed by two mid-tiers?’

’And I didn’t even get to launch a single attack.’

’As for Gao Neng’s dirty tricks...’

The Eagle-eyed Man wouldn’t hold that against him. After all, adventurer teams from the Underground City like them were all forged in the crucible of life-and-death battles.

In battle, there is only victory and defeat.

"Someone, help me!" Just then, the forty-five-year-old high-tier man cried out. Besides the Eagle-eyed Man, he was in the worst predicament.

He was being ganged up on by Shaximo, Wei Ya, and Zhou Jin.

He wasn’t having any easier a time than the Eagle-eyed Man.

The legend that one high-tier expert could take on four or five at the Tier Six Late Stage was utterly shattered. After all, the people he was facing were the absolute elites of the Alliance.

Dragon List Geniuses.

There were only three hundred of them in the entire Alliance.

And he was currently facing the very best of those three hundred.

On the battlefield, both Shaximo and Wei Ya had records of solo-killing high-tier experts. How was he supposed to handle three such people teaming up against him?

"Help us!" the Eagle-eyed Man yelled as well.

Following their shouts, more than ten people broke away from the brawl nearby and rushed over. They were all members of the four high-tier experts’ adventurer teams.

They just hadn’t expected Shaximo’s group to suddenly side with Gao Neng. For a moment, they had completely miscalculated the situation.

Of course, it wasn’t too late to remedy the situation.

The dozen or so people decisively abandoned the chaotic fight for the attribute materials and joined the fray over here.

With that, a full-blown melee erupted between the two sides.

With a dozen more people joining the fight, the situation where Gao Neng’s group had a three- or four-on-one advantage shifted. The superiority of the four high-tier experts gradually began to emerge.

BOOM!

The first one sent flying was, naturally, Yi Qinglian.

After all, it was a real struggle for her and Yi Qingge to face a full four-person adventurer team that included a high-tier expert.

"Qinglian, I’m coming to help!" Seeing Yi Qinglian get knocked away, Shaximo immediately abandoned his own fight and rushed to join hers.

The battles on both fronts became deadlocked once more.

But soon, another problem arose on Lin Ying’s side.

Lin Ying could still hold on for the moment, but Wang Jun and the others couldn’t. With the adventurer team members joining in, the oppressive power of the high-tier expert’s domain grew even stronger.
