National destiny: Global tower climbing skills have decreased by 10,000 times.

This is where dreams begin, and where dreams come true.

Ye Fei's voice immediately came through the earpiece, calm yet encouraging:

"Well done. Now it's time to take down the second monster."

Without hesitation, Chu Liang moved his mouse to the "Lunar Shot" card. He glanced at the "Wet Cultist" standing on the right; he hadn't been hit and was still at full health.

However, with 4×119 hits, this amount of health is like countless layers of thin paper piled together; although there is a lot, it can be easily broken with a single blow.

He clicked down and selected "Wet Cultist".

As the "Lunar Shot" was fired, a series of dazzling meteor shower effects flashed across the screen, as dense as machine gun bullets, one after another hitting the "Wet Cultist".

The monster's body trembled violently amidst a series of high-frequency vibrations. Its previously unmoving health bar suddenly began to peel away layer by layer, as if being slowly sliced ​​apart by tens of thousands of knives.

After waiting for about ten seconds, the final blow was delivered, and the "Wet Cultist" shuddered violently, fell to the ground, and turned into ashes.

The waiting room fell silent, a suffocating silence; not a single person uttered a sound.

Everyone was staring at the big screen, some with their mouths slightly open, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say.

Some people rubbed their eyes, thinking they were seeing things and couldn't believe what they were seeing.

In just one round, a powerful monster with doubled health was instantly killed. No one would believe it unless they saw it with their own eyes.

You Shao's lips twitched almost imperceptibly, and the hand holding the Buddhist prayer beads stopped turning.

His gaze immediately shifted from the screen to Chen Hong, a hint of reproach in his eyes, as he thought to himself:

"I knew I shouldn't have let you agree!"

The assistant beside him noticed Young Master You's mood and quickly moved closer, lowering his voice to say:

"Young Master You, don't rush, the outcome is not yet decided."

"Look, there's another powerful monster guarding the final stage on the route ahead. In his current state, even if he gets past this stage, he definitely won't last until the end."

Hearing him say that, You Shao felt there was some truth to it, so his anger subsided slightly, and he said fiercely:

"Hmph, fine, then I'll watch."

"Anyway, if anything goes wrong this time, I'll hold you, Chen Hong, accountable!"

On the stage, Chu Liang looked at the field and felt relieved to see that only one 'calcified cultist' was left with low health.

He knew that this monster was growing slowly, and after several rounds of attacks, its health was already low, so it posed little threat to them at the moment.

He decisively played a "Meteor" card, applying a "Vulnerable" status effect, and then played two more attack cards to unleash a barrage of attacks.

Chen Hong only symbolically played two "Strike" cards, contributing a negligible amount of damage, but with the added vulnerability buff, the effect was still significant.

After a few rounds, the 'Calcified Cultist's' health bar was also depleted, and a page popped up showing the rewards for clearing the stage.

Chu Liang leaned back in his chair and let out a long breath.

He survived.

He passed another hurdle. He never imagined he would actually get this far.

There was no time to celebrate. The two followed the route and immediately entered the next question mark, which was a shop.

Various cards and relics hung on the wall, and three bottles of potion were placed below.

Along the way, there wasn't a single shop, but he accumulated quite a few gold coins, totaling over three hundred, which was enough to buy many things.

He quickly scanned the list, his gaze soon settling on a 'Sword Saint' card that cost 158 ​​gold coins:

"Sword Saint", a power card, costs 2 mana. Playing it allows you to play "King's Sword" twice.

In his understanding, this card is the core ability card of the Crown Prince and one of the key components of the Sword Forging Style. As long as he gets this card, it is equivalent to doubling his output ability!

For Crown Prince players who are used to the "Sword Forging" strategy, this is a "dream card" that will make them drool, and it will be hard to resist fulfilling their filial duties.

He couldn't help but move the mouse over and circle it around a few times, anxiously waiting for Ye Fei's instructions.

However, Ye Fei remained silent for a long time, showing no intention of making a purchase.

The audience below the stage suddenly became restless when they saw this card:

"Wow! It's the legendary gold card 'Sword Saint'! He's so lucky!"

"Is this what they mean by surviving a close call and being blessed with good fortune after surviving a great calamity? I finally had a stroke of good luck."

"I'm saying getting this card is equivalent to winning outright, do you understand? If you can resist taking it for even a second, you're definitely a fake crown prince."

Chu Liang was getting anxious. He immediately opened the typing window and asked Ye Fei, "How is it? Do you want to buy this 'Sword Saint' card?"

Ye Fei stared at the screen, not even glancing at the 'Sword Saint' card, his gaze constantly shifting between the other two cards.

After a while, Ye Fei's voice came:

"Open the map, let me check the route."

Chu Liang was somewhat puzzled. He didn't know what the purchase of a license plate had to do with the route, but he did as instructed anyway.

Chu Liang opened the map. He was currently at a crossroads. To the left was the route he had originally planned. Apart from the question mark, there was only one powerful monster guarding the end of the level.

On the other path, there is an elite guarding the end of the pass, but there is a campfire in front of the elite, with a question mark in the middle.

Ye Fei made his decision after only a moment's thought, his tone resolute:

"Turn off the map, buy 'Star Sequence', 'Charge!', and 'Ghost Seed', don't buy anything else."

Chu Liang hesitated for a moment. His long-awaited "Sword Saint" card was not considered. Instead, he chose the somewhat unfamiliar "Charge!" card.

Charge!, 1 mana, choose two cards from the draw deck and turn them into Servants Strike.

"Servant Strike", an attack card, costs 0 mana and deals 7 damage. Draw a card and consumes mana.

In his mind, "Charge!" was just a short-term transitional attack card that relied on consuming other cards in exchange for a brief burst of damage. The cost was too high, and it was not easy to use for a long time.

Moreover, compared to the "Sword Forging Style", the output efficiency of 1 cost 14 damage and cross-turn is too small, and it is not comparable to the "Sword Saint" at all.

The relic 'Ghost Seed' is even more incomprehensible, as it inflicts the 'Void' effect on all starting defenses.

In the mainstream interpretation in China, this is a purely negative relic whose function is simply to occupy a purchase option and randomly increase the difficulty.

Ye Fei's tone was as if he were firmly carrying out some decision, not just talking nonsense, and he did not allow any questioning.

He knew that he had come this far thanks to Ye Fei, and there must be a reason why he was saying this.

He still believes in him!

So he did as instructed.

The audience erupted in discussion upon seeing his choice:

"Huh? They're not even using 'Sword Saint'?"

"What is he doing? Is he just wasting money?"

"You made a mistake."

"Damn, do they even know how to play? Why didn't they take the 'Sword Saint' and bought this trash instead?"

"You can actually buy 'ghost seeds'? They must be throwing money away."

"Sigh, forget it. I thought there was still a glimmer of hope, but seeing this, I know the skill level isn't that great after all..."

Chen Hong, sitting opposite, almost burst out laughing when she saw Chu Liang buy a "ghost seed".

He opened the chat window and typed a line of text to send as a sarcastic remark:

"Sigh, I say, you'd better give up now."

"Buying something like a ghost seed? I think you're out of your mind."

Chu Liang closed the shop without replying and prepared to move on to the next level.
