[Ding] Battle notification: [Betty] has successfully defeated the elite Silver Radiance Warrior [Rampaging Black Bee].

……

Ten seconds of karmic fire burned, turning piles of bee-beasts into ashes. Experience points flowed into the body like a clear spring, all becoming a source of power to amplify oneself.

[Ding] System notification: Congratulations on your level increase, current level is 26.

With a single burst of karmic fire, he absorbed over 39 experience points, propelling him to level 26 and achieving an experience gain percentage of 93%.

Opening the rankings, it's clear that Ye Baishi is only one step away from the former throne. Judging from the percentage of experience gained, it's easy to see that Ye Baishi's tender daisy is already within reach.

Aside from him, the biggest change was the downfall of the big spender, Tang Da Cai Zi. The reason, of course, was the meticulous care he received from Hei Guan. A quick search of his ID revealed him to be level 23, ranked outside the top 20. It's easy to imagine he's feeling quite down right now. At this time, he needed a kind and gentle older brother to offer some comfort. So, he opened his friends list, selected Tang Da Cai Zi, wrote a message, and clicked send.

Over there, Tang Hao, his face ashen and his gaze wandering, kept scanning his surroundings as if a lurking danger lurked around him.

Around him, Tian Ling, Gu Yue, Long Yin, and Hu Xiao surrounded him, as if guarding against some kind of danger.

"what!"

"Oh!!"

"groove!!"

"Protect the boss!!"

"Where are the enemies?!"

Influenced by Tang Dacaizi's startled cry, the four members of Tianling reacted in a chain reaction, all wielding their weapons and skills to bombard the surrounding area.

"It's okay, don't panic."

Realizing it was a private message, Tang Hao blushed, but pretended to be calm to hide his embarrassment. He opened the message bar and saw the four big words "Past Life and Present Life". He instinctively wanted to ignore it, after all, this guy couldn't say anything nice, and the words he sent could ignite a fire. He didn't want to make trouble for himself.

But then I thought, this bastard doesn't seem like the type to cause trouble for no reason. Since he sent the message, there are two possibilities: either he wants to make a deal with me, or he's trying to blackmail me into doing things for him. The former would at least give me something in return, like the powerful battle pet Belio in my pet inventory. I felt incredibly frustrated when I first bought it, but after using it for a while, it's absolutely amazing.

However, the real concern lies in the latter. He still harbors resentment over the incident involving the escort of twenty knights. If it were to happen again... would he have the right to refuse?

Having been watched by the assassin squad all morning, he had already developed a clear mind. He was already struggling to take care of himself, and if he didn't answer this bastard's message and was taken advantage of, wouldn't he suffer another huge loss?
Forget it, a true man can bend and stretch; we can't give him that chance.

Having figured this out, Tang Hao opened the message notification, and a long text appeared before his eyes.

[Private Chat] Past and Present: "Just now, feeling utterly bored, I checked the city rankings and was astonished to see that Tang Sheng had fallen. Later, I searched for his ranking and found that he had plummeted to over 200,000. I was saddened and lamented the impermanence of life. I was about to give up, but my friend Li Li felt pity for him and came to comfort me. I hope that Tang Sheng will not lose heart, but will regain his spirit and return to the top of the city rankings to revitalize the glory of our village. Your foolish brother will be waiting for your return at the top of the rankings."

???

[Private Chat] Tang Dacai: "Speak like a human."

[Private Chat] Past Life and Present Life: "Ah—your level dropped again, how pitiful."

Holy shit! !
[Private Chat] Tang Dacaizi: "Are you...?"

[Ding] System notification: The other party has blocked you.

"..." He clutched his slightly aching chest tightly, gently comforting himself: endure, he had to endure, a good man doesn't fight with a dog!

[Ding] System notification: The other party has been restored to friend status.

【drop】

[Private Chat] Past Life and Present Life: "I deeply sympathize with your tragic situation, but don't be too discouraged. Look at me, to reclaim my rightful top spot, I got out of bed at 8:30 this morning, spent half an hour grooming myself, another half hour eating breakfast, and then rushed for 50 minutes after logging on. It took me a full 10 minutes of hard work to barely level up 3 levels and squeeze into second place on the main city leaderboard. Knowing how hard I work, aren't you filled with hope for the future again? Don't say anything! I know! Listen to me! So please cheer up, after all, I'm still waiting to make money off you. If you fail, who will support me? Good luck, you're welcome, goodbye."

[Ding] System notification: The other party has blocked you again.

"I...you...I...I...hum...hum (Wang Dachui's style of sorrow)...Ah!!!"

Tang Haochuan's expression twisted dramatically, sometimes sad, sometimes sobbing, until he finally couldn't help but howl.

Not far away, the members of the Black Coffin, hidden in the shadows, looked at each other in disbelief. This... their resistance is too weak. They've only been interfered with a few dozen times, and they've already gone mad?
"Captain, shall we continue?"

"Um, be gentle, don't break it."

"Ok."

……

Ling Chuan was overjoyed at the sight of the swamp beehive. He was certain that his heartfelt words of comfort would help Tang Da Caizi regain his spirits.
Ling Chuan closed the friends interface and the leaderboard, then looked at the team list.

With Tang Dacaizi as a reference, there's no need to investigate his own relatives who are at the same level. It will take quite a bit of time to achieve the goal of dominating the Chonghuang Ranking. Roughly estimated, it will take at least five minutes, provided that he can't continue to slack off.

Click!

With this thought in mind, Ling Chuan first allocated his level 3 free attribute points to Strength, then reached for the Fire Dragon Box. A flash of silver light appeared, and a milky-white heavy crossbow with gold patterns and a moon-white leather cloak appeared simultaneously.

He can now perfectly wield two top-tier pieces of equipment that offer a leap in performance. No need to wait, just click to equip!
Bang!
A warm surge of energy rushed into his palm, the tight, pressing sensation spreading throughout his arm! His moon-white cloak billowed behind him, making a whooshing sound even without wind. Through the mirror system, he could clearly see his reflection. The cloak itself was undeniably stylish and elegant, both in its texture and design. However, when paired with his brown bearskin attire… well…

After a two-second silence, Ling Chuan still chose to hide the cloak in the appearance settings, because that feeling always gave him the impression of drinking coffee with garlic, which tasted very strange.

Starting tomorrow, this book will be updated twice a day, and a data-based bonus update mechanism will be implemented.

1. For every 1000 daily recommendation votes (inclusive), one extra chapter will be added, up to a maximum of two chapters.

2. For every 100 monthly votes (inclusive) received daily, one extra chapter will be added, up to a maximum of two chapters.

3. For every 10000 book coins (inclusive) donated daily, one extra chapter will be added, up to a maximum of two chapters.

Note 1: The daily limit for additional chapters is fixed at two chapters, and any excess will not be added. For example, even if you receive 2000 recommendations, 200 monthly tickets, and 20000 book coins in a day, you will still be limited to two additional chapters. My ability is limited, and I cannot write more than that.

Note 2: The above three items can be calculated together; for example: if the number of recommendations reaches 1000 on the same day, the number of monthly tickets reaches 100, and the number of book coins rewarded is 0, two extra chapters will still be added.

(PS: Just writing this for fun, anyway, it's totally impossible, hehe.)
