The sweat is mine, but the numbers are all theirs.

"Hmm..." Sevia woke up slowly and instinctively wanted to hug him tighter.

But the fact that her hands were completely empty instantly brought her to her senses.

Where is her great king? How come she always disappears when she falls asleep?!

He kicked the somewhat heavy blanket aside and went outside, where he saw the silver-haired girl and the king sleeping together on the sofa.

At this moment, it felt as if she were the outsider.

Sevia silently stepped forward, picked up the silver-haired girl like a kitten, and took her place.

The girl was still a little confused, and it wasn't until a few seconds later that she realized what had happened and immediately became angry.

Boom! A battle broke out in the living room.

Even after fusing with the Thunder Pearl and gaining an additional 27 points to her strength attribute, Sevia was still suppressed by Star Candle.

Amidst this commotion, Lu Yuan was unable to sleep. Since his life force was restored, he had been getting less and less sleep, which was extremely painful for him.

At that moment, my phone also vibrated.

"It's about to begin, let's go."

The inspector sent a text message.

Lu Yuan glanced at it, quickly washed up, and left with his two summoned beasts.

A car was waiting in front of the hotel, and Yang Long closed his eyes to rest.

Just as he was about to tell the driver to leave after Lu Yuan got into the car, he suddenly stopped.

Under the exploration technique, the landing source level is displayed.

"How did you get to level 38?!"

Li Qun, who was drinking water, spat it out. "Ah?"

Luo Yuan, who was carrying breakfast and boarding the bus from the other side, was also stunned and looked at Lu Yuan with a blank expression.

He already felt it was outrageous enough that he was level 30 when he came out of the knockout stage. When did leveling up become so easy?

In the past three days, I've inadvertently bumped into various principals in Nantian City, boasting about Lu Yuan's kung fu skills, wondering how he had leveled up by 8 levels again.

Li Qun was also shocked. He quickly wiped the water off the seat and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Killing some monsters in the Nantian City instance is normal, right?" Lu Yuan didn't feel anything was wrong.

Killing monsters and leveling up is a given, isn't it?

Li Qun's lips twitched. "Normal? Do you think it's normal for you to level up 8 times in three days?"

If this were normal, most people wouldn't be stuck in the twenties or thirties for their entire lives.

And after half a lifetime, he's only at level 53.

We're almost caught up.

After the initial shock, both of them fell into melancholy.

Will Lu Yuan reach level 50 in another ten days or half a month?

Being so close made them feel like they were living a life of luxury.

Yang Long's lips twitched. The joy of finally leveling up after all the hard work of leaving the city vanished.

Although there is a huge difference between level 70 and level 30, the concept of leveling up is completely different.

However, it took him a full month to accumulate this level 1 before he reached it today.

However, this is also a good thing.

"So, you've caught up with the level gap you fell behind in the past," Yang Long said with a smile. "But we can't let our guard down now."

"There will always be one or two top geniuses in the whole province, whose strength is far superior to that of Yunfeng, who can only rely on his hidden profession."

The reason I didn't mention these things before was that I felt Lu Yuan couldn't even reach the hidden professions, so there was no need for him to even look up to him.

"Top geniuses are those who not only possess powerful hidden professions, but also awaken their own talents," Luo Yuan quickly explained to Lu Yuan.

"For example, in the first dungeon of the elimination round, the South Heaven Gate, he single-handedly crushed the other four hidden classes and special BOSS, causing a huge uproar."

However, if it weren't for the fact that Lu Yuan was a dark horse, and the shock he brought was unexpected, no one could compare to him.

"When he entered the dungeon, he was already level 34, and when he came out, he was level 35. Three days have passed, so it's impossible for him to stay in the same place."

Another character on par with him is the face of the third dungeon, Yuanyu City, although there are no other hidden classes besides him.

But his strength is undeniable. Backed by a powerful family, he has access to countless rare and precious treasures, and their quality is even higher than that of the Southern Heavenly Gate.

Yang Long nodded, which was considered an agreement.

"These two are the favorites to win the championship, but the other three knockout stage winners are also formidable opponents."

The finals are different from the knockout stage; the level you'll be entering is an arena-like environment. So, if all else fails, you can avoid their attacks and wait for your opportunity.

As long as you are eliminated slowly, you will receive a points bonus.

Luo Yuan agreed upon hearing this.

As a provincial city, Nantian City's representative is too authoritative, while Yuanyu's representative, who is of a higher rank, is also authoritative and mysterious, even without using his full strength during the elimination rounds.

To confront them head-on would undoubtedly be an unwise choice.

Anyway, we've already secured first place in the knockout stage, so we're satisfied.

It's better to secure third place and strive for second!

Reaching second place on the individual leaderboard is a tremendous honor.

Because Tianyun City hasn't achieved such results in the past ten years.

Lu Yuan remained noncommittal, only watching the tall buildings receding outside the window.

……

It was that square again, and there were even more people than during the elimination rounds.

Many socialites dressed themselves up exquisitely, and some even had someone sitting next to them who was not quite their age.

They are all perfect professional geniuses who participated in the elimination rounds.

Get off the bus and pass through the competition entrance.

Lu Yuan then saw several handkerchiefs with embroidered patterns flying towards him, clearly targeting him.

However, a sudden gust of wind swept away the handkerchief, tearing it to shreds in an instant.

The woman, who had been secretly hoping for something, was suddenly stunned, and then met the silver knight's cold gaze.

Their hearts felt as if gripped by an invisible hand; their faces paled slightly, and they immediately lowered their heads to avoid it.

Sevia then withdrew her gaze and gave a cold snort.

Lu Yuan felt no emotional reaction; he wasn't the only one to have received this.

It was everywhere on the ground.

Especially when the South Gate entrance is open, it's filled with flying objects.

He took the traction stone and waited quietly for it to begin.

There were five other people around, four of whom were level 38, and Nantianmenmian was even level 39, just as Yang Long had said.

At this moment, a young man walked through the competition entrance; he was the last contestant, Yuan Yumenmian.

As soon as he appeared on the stands, a burst of excited cheers erupted, almost all from girls, just like a fan meeting.

Handkerchiefs were thrown at him as if they were free.

Yuan Yu accepted all offers of handkerchiefs without hesitation. With a smile, he snapped his fingers, and an invisible force enveloped the entire area, neatly folding each handkerchief and placing it in his hand.

The excitement immediately grew even louder.

"What the hell are you pretending for?" The fiery red-haired boy was a little irritable. "I arrived a long time ago, but I had to be the last one to come in, wasting my time."

"The protagonist is always unconventional; you wouldn't understand," Yuan Yu said with a smile.

The short-haired, capable girl immediately scoffed, "Then I think Tianyun is even more unconventional than you."

Tearing a handkerchief to shreds? I don't think that happened before him.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yu remained silent and quietly tore off his handkerchief.

The final match was then announced to have begun.
