No one was foolish enough to challenge Little Tiger, and the sea beasts were the same.
Everyone knew that this victory was a clever trick. In terms of true strength, Little Tiger was far from comparable to the seventh-grade naga warrior. However, there was nothing to be done; after all, he had a purple weapon, a large amount of magic crystals, and excellent silver defensive gear.
These factors combined to create the victory that allowed him to defend against blows and claim slayings.
The golden light gradually awakened Little Tiger, restoring him to perfect condition. As he stood on the corpse of the seventh-grade naga warrior, laughing loudly, no one dared to mock him anymore.
Little Tiger had every right to be arrogant. Regardless of how he had won, the apocalypse was a world that valued results.
No one continued to challenge him, so Little Tiger turned to spin the wheel. But to his dismay, he landed on two blank spots.
Seeing Little Tiger return with a gloomy expression, the people of Ying City let out kind-hearted laughter.
Yet, within that laughter, there was an unavoidable hint of despair in their hearts.
They submitted to Cloud Summit, but in reality, they were submitting to that one man who could cover the sky with one hand.
Although during Ye Zhongming's disappearance, Cloud Summit Villa maintained its leading position under the leadership of core members and even ensured the villa's rapid development, in the end, the people of Ying City believed that was just the residual protection left by that man.
However, after the battle at Cloud Port, they realized that things seemed to differ greatly from what everyone had imagined.
There was no need to mention Xia Bai, who was already a seven-star evolver. Like her battle team, no one in Ying City dared to provoke her. Park Soo-young’s formidable medical skills were also recognized.
But beyond that, the people of Ying City didn’t feel that the other members of Cloud Summit Villa had high combat power; in fact, many of them were less powerful than the earth yellow pill.
Perhaps that was true; the core members of Ying City were not as strong as the earth yellow pill, and even after this major evolution, many of them still lacked its might.
However, during the castle defense battle in the Inner City, the people of Ying City witnessed Mo Ye’s dominating role in defense and experienced Liang Chuyin’s dazzling skills during the wheel challenges. Now, they had also seen Little Tiger’s prowess in leveling up challenges.
They suddenly realized that the core members of Cloud Summit had become powerful enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with Zhao Xingmei and Bai Feng, and even... stronger than them.
If it was just one or two people, it could be considered a coincidence, but the problem was that these core members seemed to be equally formidable.
Watching Little Tiger being kindly teased by the people of Cloud Summit, many survivors from Ying City began to truly respect Cloud Summit at that moment. They realized that even without the man they needed to look up to, Cloud Summit Villa had already become a colossal beast capable of crushing Ying City with a mere swipe of its claws.
No one wanted to submit to anyone, but now, even someone as proud as Zhao Xingmei had lost all her spirit.
Many of the bosses in Ying City suddenly entertained a thought at that moment... perhaps merging with Cloud Summit Villa would be a path better than independent development?
The challenges continued, and the special wheel always attracted the greatest attention from the survivors because there were rewards far beyond the usual.
At that moment, in an underground base in a mountainous area, a man was rhythmically swinging his hands back and forth. With each swing, a Flame Skeleton would appear, and when he swung to the other side, it would disappear, repeating endlessly.
A young man gently tapped on the silver metal door and then slowly pushed it open, walking quietly to the man’s back.
“Still unable to make contact?”
