All-Heavens Game, the Strongest Player

Chapter 101 Popular Science about the Southern Sky: A Surprising Discovery!
Just like many people on Earth who work for a few thousand dollars a month but are always concerned about international affairs, the largest number of casual gamers on Earth, because they can no longer participate in dungeons, are more concerned about the affairs of high-end gamers.

Therefore, the guild war between Nantian and Sihai quickly became a trending topic.

Many people flocked to Sihai City to watch the battle and even watch the live stream.

Yes, you can watch the game.

During guild wars, not only can fallen soldiers on the attacking side be resurrected after the siege ends, but local residents can also choose to spectate and act as NPCs in the siege instance, completely immune to damage.

This is a rare opportunity to witness the skills of high-level players.

Countless people flocked to it.

At this very moment, information about the "Southern Sky Guild" was also unearthed by netizens across the planet Earth.

"The name Nantian actually comes from a match in a Tier 1 dungeon. Chu Xiu, a newcomer at the time and now the president of the Nantian Guild, was revered as the 'Southern Heaven God King' by the natives in the game. He and Shen Tianci, a core member of the Nantian Guild, were known as the two great god kings of the South and the North!"

A reporter stands inside the Sihai City instance.

While waiting for the siege to begin, he explained the Nantian Guild to the audience.

"It's worth mentioning that Shen Tianci is a top-tier second-generation player on Blue Star. His father is Shen Dufu, the head of the Shen family, a top family in the Eastern District, and he's at the seventh tier!" The reporter continued, "In that match, he lost to the guild leader Chu Xiu in the second round of eliminations and was eliminated!"

At this point, viewers watching the live stream had all sorts of thoughts.

Some keyboard warriors called Shen Tianci useless, while others complained that second-generation players had taken up too many game resources, causing the game to become rigidly hierarchical, making it impossible for new players to rise up.

There are all sorts of opinions.

But the reporter ignored them and continued, “When the Nantian Guild was first established, there were six elders, all of whom met in the same game. They were President Chu Xiu, Vice President Zhang Taiping, Elder Lü Shengnan, Elder Guo Liang, Elder Jia Tong, and Elder Wang Yuanjing.”

Then, the ranking of that match was mentioned.

It left the audience somewhat confused.

"So, this is just a group of players from a single match, some of whom didn't even make it into the top ten? How dare a guild like this challenge Zongheng Sihai?"

At this point, the members of the Southern Sky Guild can only be described as mediocre.

They all seem rather unremarkable.

But soon, the reporter said, "Do you guys think, like me, that apart from Chu Xiu who's number one on both lists, the others are just so-so? I thought so at first too!"

As she spoke, she took out a document.

The above contains information about many players in that match.

Among them were Li Tiangang, the top scorer in the college entrance examination in the East District; Wang Yuanjing, whose father was a seventh-level mansion master; and information about Lü Shengnan and Guo Liang, as well as their mother, the "Iron Lady" who has now entered the sixth level.

You won't know until you organize it, and once you do, you'll be shocked by what you find.

There are several high-level players and their children, including two seventh-level players and their children!

"Second-generation players, you all know what they're like after spending money. Do you think Chu Xiu can suppress them because they're useless?" the reporter said, taking out another document.

On that surface lies the subsequent development of the players.

Wang Yuanjing, Shen Tianci, Jia Tong, and Guo Liang did not advance, but they all achieved final victory in their second entry into the first-tier dungeon.

Not only them, but also Wang Ajiao and Li Jing, a group of losers, all of whom eventually achieved final victory.

Furthermore, Lü Shengnan and Zhang Taiping even won their battle in the second-tier world, each achieving the top rank in the second tier!

"Add to that Chu Xiu, who's number one on both leaderboards, and in one dungeon, there are a whopping nine 'number one's way off. What kind of god-like match is that?" the reporter said. "Chu Xiu's ability to suppress the others isn't just a grassroots underdog triumphing over a rich kid; it's like a group of rich kids had the worst luck in eight lifetimes and encountered a true god!"

After saying that, he released Chu Xiu's previous system evaluation, which read "unsolvable".

Then, she changed the subject and began to talk about Ye Lingxian.

"Emperor Lingxian, I'm sure everyone is familiar with him. He's a top-ranked figure on Chu Xiu's leaderboard, and the system universally acknowledges that no one can escape Chu Xiu's clutches except for Ye Lingxian!" The reporter continued, "You may not know the significance of his achievement, but Ye Lingxian was once number one on both leaderboards and reached the top of the first tier! That move 'Ten Thousand Dung Returns to the Source' looks ridiculous, but if it weren't dung but a sword, it would truly be 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Source'!"

Then he paused for a moment.

He continued, "But such a powerful figure was actually forced to 'use excrement' to protect himself by Chu Xiu. The strength of President Nantian is definitely beyond your imagination. And President Chu's second match was also a match of gods, with top-tier second-generation talents and extraordinary abilities! Among them was even Zhou Wushang, the only daughter of Zhou Wudao, the uncrowned king of the Eastern District and the number one person on Blue Star!"

This reporter is quite something; he even managed to uncover Zhou Wushang's identity.

It's alright to dig it up.

It turns out he was someone who smuggled himself into another region, challenged the highest difficulty level, and returned victorious.

Finally, she concluded, "So, don't be fooled by the fact that the Southern Sky Guild only has a group of Tier 3 members; in reality, each and every one of them is a top-tier player who has achieved ultimate victory. In fact, combined with their talents, they all have the ability to challenge opponents of higher ranks!"

This kind of popular science explanation gave many netizens on Earth a big shock.

Three seventh-tier second-generation members and two sixth-tier second-generation members were suppressed and subdued by Chu Xiu. The Nantian Guild is actually comprised entirely of top-tier players, a whole group of hardcore dungeon runners?

From this perspective, although the Four Seas Guild has a large number of members, its potential is much smaller.

The guild leader has failed even in the fifth-tier world.

It wasn't a mishap; it was that our core strengths were inferior to others, and we were eliminated.

The middle level is also composed of "veteran fourth-tier" employees.

As everyone knows, in the game "All Heavens," the older you are, the weaker you become among those of the same rank!
"But even so, they don't have enough people!" a spectator wondered. "There are only five Tier 3s in total, and the guild leader still has to go to the City Lord's Mansion. They can't even gather enough for the city defense towers, let alone the City Lord boss. Can Chu Xiu fight against Tier 5s even at full power?"

It's possible for a Tier 3 fighter to defeat a Tier 4 fighter, given their combined strength ranking first on both leaderboards.

Having great talent is all you need.

But when a third-tier player fights a fifth-tier player, that's no longer a matter of talent!
The strongest martial arts that newly promoted players to the third tier can obtain are only the Nine Yang Divine Skill and the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms in the second tier world. However, fifth-tier players, even those who are newly promoted, can obtain ultimate skills such as the Three-Part Returning Origin Qi and the Twenty-Three Swords in the fourth tier world. They can even obtain the Alluring Love, which can destroy a city with a single strike and has a power comparable to a nuclear weapon!

"I don't know, let's see how they fight!"

As the reporter spoke, he turned the camera to the city instance, where the Nantian group had already begun their siege.

However, to everyone's surprise, only four people from the Nantian Guild went to attack the city's defensive towers. Lü Shengnan activated her talent clone and was going to attack two towers by herself!

Even more outrageous is that Shen Tianci, who had just come out of the first-order world and had only recently advanced to the second order, was also on the list.

"What is he going to do?"

"A second-tier fighter against a fourth-tier fighter? Are you kidding me?"

"Even if you were once the 'Northern Heavenly God King,' on par with Chu Xiu, you are ultimately a loser. It's uncertain whether Chu Xiu can even challenge someone two levels higher, yet you want to try challenging someone two levels higher first?"

Everyone felt it was outrageous.
