Huan Cheng ran back to the second floor in a flash, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Completely losing interest in continuing, Huan Cheng now only wanted to get to the main city as soon as possible and claim his first job change reward.

"Why isn't there a return scroll in the Divine Realm? Walking back step by step is such a waste of time!"

The journey there, filled with monster-hunting, wasn't so tedious, but the return trip, simply traveling, felt rather monotonous.

Silently complaining to himself, he kept walking and soon arrived near the entrance to the second floor.

Suddenly, Huan Cheng heard the faint sound of ping-pong balls colliding not far away.

"Is anyone there?"

He was stunned for a moment before realizing that other players must be farming monsters there.

Goblin Nest is an important high-level monster spot in the beginner village of 23333. There was no one else there before because everyone's level was relatively low and they couldn't fight the goblins.

The top-tier players are now around level 7, so it's normal for top-level players to start farming goblins.

Huan Cheng didn't care much. Adhering to the principle of keeping a low profile and making a fortune quietly, he prepared to go around in circles and return to the first floor.

Soon, he discovered a perplexing problem.

The enemy's battle location happened to be right at the entrance, which was his only way back.

Huan Cheng faced two options: either wait for their battle to end and then leave, or go directly there.

After a slight hesitation, he decided not to waste any more time and chose to go directly there.

He just wanted to keep a low profile. He hadn't done anything underhanded, so why was he being so sneaky?

A few breaths later, after rounding a stone wall, he was stunned when he saw the specific battle scene.

Seven or eight throwing goblins were arranged in an arc, their short spears flying one after another, creating a piercing sound as they whistled through the air.

To Huan Cheng's disbelief, the target of these goblin-throwing attacks was just one player!

The goblin's lair was dimly lit, and the distance was considerable, so Huan Cheng couldn't make out the person's exact appearance.

The only thing known is that while dealing with a giant goblin, this player's longsword flew up and down, and his body was agile and nimble, deflecting or dodging all the thrown short spears.

He moved with extreme agility, as if he had an eye in the back of his head, and none of the short spears that came from all directions hit him.

When it comes to dodging flying spears, Huan Cheng can only reduce the probability of being hit by the short spears by darting up and down and jumping left and right.

Whenever a short spear came at this player, his dodging movements were not large, but swift and agile. With a slight turn and a backward lean, he easily dodged it, which was a pleasure to watch.

If a comparison must be made, Huan Cheng is like a clumsy wild donkey that has been whipped and is jumping up and down, while the other is an elegant and graceful butterfly dancing among the flowers.

As for the amazing feat of deflecting a short spear with a longsword, Huan Cheng had tried it, but there had been no successful cases so far.

"Who?!"

It seemed that Huan Cheng's gaze was too intense, for the woman in the midst of the fierce battle suddenly turned around, her voice sharp and piercing, and her sharp gaze made Huan Cheng's heart tighten.

"Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—"

Before Huan Cheng could even utter a sound, several throwing goblins simultaneously hurled short spears.

Presumably affected by Huan Cheng's sudden appearance, the man's movements slowed down for a moment, and he was successfully hit by a short spear, causing him to sway slightly.

Just then, the big goblin picked up a stone axe and smashed it down on his head.

The man barely managed to raise his sword to parry, and although he successfully blocked the attack, the disruption to his fighting rhythm left him looking rather disheveled.

Hang in there!

Huan Cheng felt somewhat embarrassed for causing others to fall into danger, so he immediately launched the Wind Slash, instantly killing a throwing goblin while attracting the firepower of the other goblins.

Without the harassment of throwing goblins, players can easily take on giant goblins one-on-one.

The battle ended in less than half a minute with Huan Cheng's cooperation.

"Riding the wind?" The player looked Huan Cheng up and down and asked in a clear, melodious, and charming voice.

He subconsciously looked at the person and saw that she was tall and slender, with gentle and charming eyes and a touch of languor, completely unlike the heroic figure she had been in the fight just now.

The stark contrast left Huan Cheng somewhat bewildered.

He never expected that this top-tier player who could knock away short spears was actually a female player, and an extremely beautiful one at that!

"Could it be that I've mistaken you for someone else, and you're not Chengfeng?"

Seeing that Huan Cheng remained silent, the woman parted her lips slightly, a smile appearing in her eyes.

"cough!"

Huan Cheng, realizing his blunder, coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment and asked knowingly, "You know me?"

"Who else but the master Chengfeng could roam freely in a goblin lair alone?"

"Aren't you alone in the goblin's lair too?"

The beautiful woman laughed heartily upon hearing this and stepped forward, extending her hand: "Yunxi, it's an honor to meet the number one person in the Divine Realm here!"

Huan Cheng reached out and gently shook his head, saying, "What number one in the Divine Realm? He just got the first kill on the BOSS by sheer luck."

"Ding! Player Yunxi has sent you a friend request. Do you accept?"

Upon hearing the system notification in his ear, Huan Cheng hesitated.

"What? Are you so aloof, Master? Can't we just add each other as friends?" Yunxi smiled slightly, brandishing her longsword. "Theoretically, I'm still your customer!"

Huan Cheng had noticed it long ago; the weapon in Yun Xi's hand was almost identical in design to his Wild Boar Blade, except that the one in his hand was more exquisite.

When he first killed the Boar King, he got two Boar Blades. He kept one bronze-grade blade for himself and put the other iron-grade blade up for auction on the trading platform.

After her reminder, Huan Cheng suddenly remembered that the ID he used to buy the Wild Boar Blade was Yunxi!

It would be unreasonable not to add him as a friend, so Huan Cheng readily accepted the request, and his friend list was finally no longer empty.

"Wow, the master truly lives up to his reputation as the number one in the Divine Realm! He's already level 10! This poor girl has worked so hard and is only at level 8!"

Players can see their friends' levels. After adding them as friends, Yunxi immediately knew that Huan Cheng had reached the maximum level.

"Lucky! Lucky!" Huan Cheng didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only keep saying "lucky."

"I guess the expert is going to the main city to change jobs, right? I won't take up any more of your time."

"If any pro players find good gear, feel free to trade with me. There are no transaction fees for trades between friends!"

After saying that, Yunxi waved her hand and smiled charmingly, "Don't worry, the price I offered will definitely not be a loss for the master!"

Upon hearing this, Huan Cheng's heart stirred. He immediately took out a piece of equipment from his backpack and shared its attributes with Yun Xi: "Are you interested in this equipment?"

He took out a sword called the Exquisite Iron Sword. The name was unremarkable, but it was a piece of black iron-grade equipment, which came from the only elite-level max-level goblin that Huan Cheng had killed.

Because the minimum equipment requirement for this sword is level 8, and considering that few people meet the requirements, Huan Cheng has not yet listed it on the trading platform.

Although its quality is only Black Iron grade, its attributes are not much inferior to the Bronze grade Wild Boar Blade in Huan Cheng's hands because it was dropped by a max-level monster.

Gazing at the exquisite iron sword, Yun Xi's eyes burned with fervor. Without even looking up, she simply said, "Name your price!"
