In Zone 3—the talented Gaunt had remained in first place for a very long time. But then, he was suddenly shoved to second place.
It all happened in an instant!
Gaunt was dumbfounded. He didn't know what had happened and his expression turned gloomy.
To be overtaken out of the blue, after keeping the spot for more than twenty days… Anyone could imagine how he felt.
"Hahaha, look at Gaunt's expression!"
"I pity him."
"He probably doesn't know what happened!"
"What's with this Wang Teng? Is he cheating? How did he squeeze Gaunt out first place?"
"Don't speak nonsense if you don't know what's going on. Everyone's watching the competition. How can you even cheat? He's just a bit more creative than others!"
"It's not just a bit. I'm about to break my back!"
…
Many people saw Gaunt's expression and immediately burst into laughter. It was too funny.
Of course, there were some who speculated whether the young competitor from the military was cheating. Otherwise, how could his points skyrocket all of a sudden? It didn't make sense.
After all, Gaunt had reigned in first place for more than twenty days and was dethroned in a flash. Some of Gaunt's supporters couldn't accept it.
The top ten rankings would rarely change, as the main performers were strong, keeping a large gap between those below; it was difficult for others to catch up and overtake them. It would usually be those outside of the top ten who would have ranking changes.
But, such incidents always happened while Wang Teng was around. He always acted in unexpected ways.
Those who knew him were accustomed to the fact; those who didn't would, soon enough.

Furthermore, he knew that this upstart wasn't even among the top ten before.
This meant that his rival's ranking shot up from further below the top ten, shooting straight to first place. Even he had doubts, as to whether the guy was cheating.
Some time later, he realized that Wang Teng was firmly keeping the spot, which meant that there wasn't anything wrong with the rankings.
A bright light flashed in Gaunt's eyes, his competitiveness stirred. He glanced at the surrounding star beasts and leapt to begin a massacre.
On the other side—Wang Teng looked at his ranking in Zone 3 and smiled. "Finally, first place. I just have to keep the spot until everything is over."
He then looked at Gaunt's ranking and raised his eyebrows, "Looks like this guy isn't willing to settle!"
He snickered. He wasn't about to have his advantage lost, so he also began killing star beasts.
Wang Teng took some time to check his attributes board.
He had gathered large amounts of attribute bubbles from his hunt just then. His poison Force advanced from the fifth to the seventh level of the celestial stage!
Constellation Poison Force: 46500/70000 (celestial stage, seventh-level)
With the seventh-level of the celestial stage and his current strength, his clone would fare well even against talented martial warriors, killing star beasts as fast as them.
It wouldn't be easy for Gaunt to catch up!
The League of Talents was in full swing. The rankings of Wang Teng and his clones improved yet again.
Zone 1, he had advanced into the top twenty, and was now in rank 18!
Zone 2, he had reached rank 23!
Zone 3, first place!
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})Zone 5, he advanced to the top twenty as well, and was now in rank 16!
Zone 7, he rose from rank 6 to third place!
His rankings shocked countless people. They almost couldn't believe their eyes.
Oh my god!
Any other warrior would be exhilarated to have one of those results.
However, Wang Teng was occupying five of those spots!
"Look. Wang Teng has finally met Parkers' no. 3 in Zone 5!"
"What Parkers' no .3? The Parkers will go mad!"
"Oh my god! He really met him!"
"Yet another fateful encounter. I really want to know how the Parkers are feeling right now."
"I wonder what Wang Teng is going to do to this guy."
"He can be more creative. My back is still fine!"
…
Everyone was excited on the live chat platform.
There were also people who took the initiative to bestow names to the Parkers's participants… No. 1, No. 2, No. 3…
Numbers 1 and 2 had been killed in action.
No. 3 would soon go under!
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})The Parkers observing the competition had faces as black as charcoal. Furious Flaming Universe Lord's nose was almost spitting fire.
How could they run into him again!
Why is fate so cruel?
No. 1 and No. 2 were now in the waiting area. Compared to No. 1, No. 2 was a bit more fortunate.
He was eliminated after twenty days passed and his ranking was still quite high. Even if his points were halved, it was still possible for him to get into the top ten thousand.
However, both fighter's expressions were foul, and couldn't help but worry for No. 3 when they saw he was found by Wang Teng!
Tsk, what No. 3. That's their family's xxx!
The other dukedoms couldn't help but gloat a little when they saw this.
Wang Teng really had a feud with the Parkers!
They felt a little glad that their families were on good terms with the young hero. Otherwise, they would have trouble stomaching such deliberate targeting.
The League of Talents was supposed to give the family's talents a better path. It would be a waste if they didn't get good results because of such reasons.
No matter what, the ones who should be depressed at the moment were the Parkers. It had nothing to do with the other families.
On a snow-capped mountain in Zone 5—Wang Teng met Parkers' no. 3.
He hid himself behind a large tree piled with snow. His body was like one with the environment, while his presence disappeared. No one could tell there was someone present.
The insider knows the ropes, while the outsider just comes along for the ride.
Many powerful warriors noticed Wang Teng's concealing method and were extremely astonished by it.
Quite the brilliant move.
They wouldn't have noticed the boy's existence if they weren't watching the competition from a third person's perspective.
Many people were curious about how the guy would sabotage Parkers' no.3.
The previous two methods opened their eyes, while being greatly entertained at the same time. What would happen the third time?
Their encounter was also a coincidence.
The Parkers fellow was fighting a group of ice boars.
Those beasts were the overlords of the area, and lived in great numbers.
Parkers' no. 3 was overjoyed to have found the place. To him, it was an excellent hunt ground.
He was ranked 16th at the moment. If he could wipe out that beast group, he would certainly make it to the top five!
It was an excellent opportunity!
However, he was cautious, knowing he couldn't startle all the creatures at the same time. He had to bide his time and finish them off one step at a time.
He carefully lured a small group and killed them before drawing the attention of another group.
It was a slower method, but victory was secured.
No. 3 had a solid plan!
It was a sound plan indeed, but plans would always encounter changes.
Since Wang Teng had found him, he wouldn't let him do as he wanted.
The young hero's eyes lit up as he rubbed his chin. It shouldn't be difficult this time.
Ice boars had the ice element and feared flames. He had been using fire Force in that forbidden zone, which countered them.
Releasing his flames was the only thing he needed to do. There wasn't a need for power; he only had to affect a wide area to startle all the beasts present.
We'll see how No. 3 dodges them!
Just as he was about to make a move—he froze all of a sudden. He turned and squinted a little.
A snow-white figure had suddenly appeared!
It was a woman clad in a snow-white dress, with snow-white hair to match. The most noticeable were her dazzling feet, which casually paced around the snow.
This beauty has a powerful ice talent! Interesting! Is she the top ranker, Leng Qianxue? Wang Teng's heart thumped. He decided to abort the plan after some contemplation. He wanted to see what she was up to before taking action.
Just then, he felt flustered since she looked in his general direction.
However, he didn't move an inch.
There was no need to be anxious!
Wang Teng was confident in his advanced disguise talent. It was impossible for her to notice him.
Leng Qianxue frowned a bit and looked away. She then continued to tread on the snow, discovering the star beasts roaming the mountain. It was indeed an excellent hunting ground.
Great perception. Is it because she sensed my gaze? Or is it because of her exceptional ice talent? Wang Teng felt puzzled, yet relieved. Fortunately, I was calm enough and didn't reveal my presence. I would have been discovered otherwise.
Leng Qianxue's arrival also attracted No. 3's attention.
She didn't bother concealing her presence, walking in the snow with a calm posture as if she were alone. She made it seem like she didn't care about him.
"Leng Qianxue!" No. 3's expression changed, immediately recognizing the lady.
Leng Qianxue's had become a renowned figure in Zone 5. Many had seen the stunning beauty walking barefoot in the snow. Guy no. 3 had naturally heard about her.
His guess was confirmed when he noticed her fair hair and her bare feet.
Damn it. Why did I meet her here! No. 3 didn't look too good. Leng Qianxue was ranked first, and was definitely powerful to an extreme; he wasn't confident of being able to fight and deal with her.
Leng Qianxue walked from afar and raised a slender palm. A snow cave then collapsed; a dozen ice boars pushed the snow away and rushed out. Their eyes became red when they saw the culprit destroy their nest, then squealed as they charged towards her.
However, ice spikes burst out of the ground and pierced the ice boars without her even moving.
Tsk, this woman is strong! Wang Teng commented after seeing it happen.
