Chapter 94 How About We Let Them Go?
At this time, in another part of Defense Zone 50,
Nearly a hundred recruits were working together with a small team to fight against a wave of small beasts.
At the center of the battle, a Level 29 Thunder Leopard was being completely contained by a single person—holding it off alone.
---
Feng Wu vs. the Level 29 Thunder Leopard
Green poisonous lightning struck the three giant golden shields rotating around him.
Instead of breaking through, the Thunder Leopard suffered damage backlash from the holy barrier.
Meanwhile, his teammates healed, weakened the enemy, and dealt extra damage.
The Level 29 Thunder Leopard was clearly struggling under Feng Wu's relentless offense!
---
The Leader of the Top 100 New Recruits!
He was none other than:
Feng Wu, an S-Class Level 28 Holy Knight!
And his unmatched strength inspired the trembling recruits around him!
---
Recruits in Awe!
"He's actually winning against a Level 29 Thunder Leopard!? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it!"
"What do you mean not falling behind? He clearly has the upper hand! That leopard is actually scared of him!"
"Are capital city recruits always this strong!? They're basically veterans!"
"He's beyond above average—this guy is superhuman! Who else dares to solo a Level 29 beast!?"
"Damn… we're lucky to be fighting alongside Feng Wu!"
"Feng Wu is unstoppable!"
"Feng Wu is mighty!"
---
Victory!
After several hours,
The wave of small beasts was completely crushed.
The Level 29 Thunder Leopard was slain!
The recruits stared at Feng Wu's back, filled with admiration and absolute respect!
---
Recruits Boasting
At that moment, a group of new recruits arrived from another area.
The ones who fought alongside Feng Wu immediately started bragging.
"LOOK! LOOK! See what's on the ground!?"
"Level 29 Thunder Leopard! We took down an entire small beast tide!"
"We did this with Feng Wu!"
"Aren't we awesome!? Admit it!"
---
But the newcomers just shrugged.
"Oh… not bad."
---
The Recruits Get Offended!
"Not bad!? THAT'S IT!?"
"Have you ever seen a beast tide before!?"
"You don't sound impressed at all!"
---
But then the newcomers dropped a bombshell—
"Actually… we just saw another wave of small beasts get wiped out."
"Liang Qiu's team soloed that one."
"It had a Level 29 beast too. And it was WAY bigger than yours."
"They didn't even let us help."
---
Feng Wu's Team: "Bullsh*t!"
"Are you crazy!? Liang Qiu's team is ranked fourth in the Top 100! Feng Wu is #1!"
"If WE barely managed, how could THEY do it ALONE!?"
"No way in hell. That's total nonsense!"
---
The Newcomers Stay Firm
"Believe it or not, we saw it ourselves."
"They wouldn't even let us step in."
"They were worried we'd 'steal' their merit points."
"Obviously, they're stronger than you guys."
---
Feng Wu's Reaction
Feng Wu, overhearing this, frowned.
"Liang Qiu's team… single-handedly took out a small beast tide?"
"That doesn't make sense."
He knew how strong Liang Qiu was.
But… stronger than him? Impossible.
Even five teams like his would struggle against a beast tide alone.
"No way they did it."
"...Unless something is different about them now."
---
Feng Wu Moves Out!
For now, he dropped the topic.
"Prioritize material collection."
"This beast tide is a money-making opportunity."
---
Feng Wu's True Goal
Unlike most capital recruits, Feng Wu wasn't rich.
His parents were just workers.
Their small three-bedroom home in the Third Ring cost tens of millions.
They could barely afford mortgage payments.
All his earnings went toward helping his family.
That's why he stayed to fight.
If he kept hunting beasts, he could earn millions in materials.
He needed money.
More than anyone else.
---
Terrible Drop Rates
After collecting materials, his team felt something was off.
"Damn it! Why aren't these beasts dropping any cores!?"
"Even the Level 29 Thunder Leopard didn't drop one!"
"We killed 100+ beasts, but the drop rate is like 10%!?"
"I thought it was supposed to be 30%! Who the hell calculated this!?"
They all complained.
But they weren't too depressed.
Every team was experiencing the same problem.
They just had to get used to it.
---
Checking on Liang Qiu
With materials secured, Feng Wu led his team toward Liang Qiu's battlefield.
If they really wiped out a beast tide alone…
He needed to see it for himself.
---
Feng Wu's Shock
His five-team squad arrived at the coordinates.
What they saw stunned them.
The ground was covered in corpses.
A Level 29 Black Tiger lay dead.
The beast tide had been completely erased.
---
Disbelief
"This… really happened?"
"One team did this…?"
"Liang Qiu's team wiped out a beast tide ALONE?"
"They should be ranked FIRST!"
---
Meeting Bai Ding
As they approached, they saw four people guarding a single man.
It was Bai Ding.
He was collecting materials.
FAST.
In fact, his hands moved so fast, it looked inhuman!
Even more insane…
---
100% Drop Rate!?
EVERY beast he looted dropped a core!
100% success rate!
Liang Qiu's team watched in shock.
---
Bai Ding Complains
As more weak beasts arrived—
Liang Qiu's team killed them instantly.
Bai Ding sighed—
"Guys… those beasts are only Level 22."
"They're weak."
"Their cores aren't worth much…"
"How about we let them go?"
