"Chairman Bing, a member of the Heavens Hall named Ouyang Ling'er just reached out to us. She hopes we can create a spatial rift for her."
Heavens Hall!
Zero!
Upon receiving this call, Ice Emperor immediately understood it was Zero's idea.
He promptly brought up Zhang Yue.
Hearing Zhang Yue's name, the people sitting around the table suddenly realized.
"That's right! Zero! He's far more suitable than any of us to head to Eastern Nation."
"Zero's strength surpasses that of other rookie professionals by hundreds of times. He's essentially unstoppable. In the rookie professional field, no one can rival him."
"If we high-level professionals go there, it's inevitable we'll face the collective targeting of all Eastern Nation professionals. But Zero is different. Under level 100, professionals have newbie protection. Their high-level professionals won't be able to harm Zero. To counter Zero, they'd have to rely solely on rookie professionals. But with Zero's power..."
Ice Emperor took over, confidently saying, "Even if Eastern Nation deploys all their rookie professionals this year, they still won't be able to defeat Zero."
At this moment, someone raised a question, "But in that case, Zero wouldn't be able to hurt their high-level professionals either."
"We don't need to kill their high-level professionals," said Seraphim. "We just need to target their rookie professionals this year. Destroying their rookie force will also deal a massive blow to their overall strength."
So, Ice Emperor asked the guild members to send Ouyang Ling'er's number over and personally called her.
"Hello, this is Ice Emperor. I've received your request. Besides the spatial rift, do you need any other resources? Equipment, gold coins, advanced potions—if there's anything you need, just let me know."
Being able to speak directly with one of the three strongest individuals in the Dragon Nation made Ouyang Ling'er on the other end of the line extremely nervous.
She tried her best to calm her excitement and replied, "No, no, our guild master only needs a rift to Eastern Nation. He can handle everything else."
"Initially, this task was assigned to me, but I couldn't obtain the materials necessary to create the rift. I know you can, so..."
After a pause, Ouyang Ling'er added, "Oh, right, our guild master has one more request."
"What is it? Please, go ahead."
Ouyang Ling'er said, "Could you extend the duration of the rift? Normally, a rift only lasts for a few hours. If possible, it would be best to extend it to over ten hours—or even a day or two, that would be even better."
Hearing this request, Ice Emperor couldn't help but feel thrilled.
It was clear that Zhang Yue wanted the extended duration to have more time to kill more of those Eastern Nation scum.
Ice Emperor immediately agreed, "Alright, no problem. I'll give the order right away to meet the requirements."
After hanging up, Ice Emperor asked Moon Mark, "Is it possible to extend the duration of the rift?"
"It's possible. We just need to add more materials to the same rift."
Hearing Moon Mark's definitive response, Ice Emperor instructed, "Then use all the materials to create one spatial rift!"
On the other side, Ouyang Ling'er informed Zhang Yue, ["Guild Master, I've asked Ice Emperor for help, and it's settled. He can create the rift, and I even applied for an extended duration~ This time, when you head to Eastern Nation, you can go on a killing spree."]
["But they might need some time to make the rift. I'll let you know once there's news."]
["Got it,"] Zhang Yue replied as he closed the Feixin interface.
After using his skills to deal with a swarm of locusts, Zhang Yue realized it was getting late. He returned to town and logged off to rest.
He was preparing to conserve his energy for the journey to Eastern Nation.
When Tian Xin'er, Su Jingyan, and Liu Yao heard about Zhang Yue's upcoming journey to Eastern Nation, they all expressed concern.
["Zhang Yue, how can you go to Eastern Nation alone? Let me come with you! Or if you think I'm not strong enough, I can find powerful guild members to go with you!"]
["Even though you have newbie protection, I looked up the data. Eastern Nation has over 1.3 million rookie professionals this year. It's too dangerous for you to go alone! Zhang Yue, don't go!"]
["Damn! Bro, are you serious? Don't be impulsive. Even though you're strong, there's no rush. In time, when you become even more powerful, you can wipe out all of Eastern Nation in one go, right?"]
Facing everyone's concerns, Zhang Yue brushed them off with a simple response: ["No problem. Eastern Nation is nothing to worry about."]
For Zhang Yue, this trip to Eastern Nation wasn't just about revenge.
He had another purpose as well...
As night gave way to dawn, Zhang Yue was having breakfast with the Heavens Hall members when suddenly, One Night Stand slammed his tablet on the table and shouted angrily, "What the hell. The Eastern Nation people are shameless!"
"What happened?" Warrior Night Owl and Li Yue quickly gathered around.
They checked the news and learned:
Yesterday, after leaving the Frozen Abyss, Inoue Amano and his group returned to Eastern Nation and uploaded a video online of them massacring Dragon Nation's Empire Guild elders.
However, they had intentionally edited the video, only including the first half before Wolong appeared.
In the first half, Eastern Nation's 13 top-tier professionals, along with hundreds of assassins, completely overwhelmed the 30 elder-level professionals from the Empire Guild, ultimately killing four of them.
But in the second half—where Wolong wiped out all of Eastern Nation's forces with just two skills—not a single clip was uploaded.
As a result, websites were flooded with mockery and ridicule from Eastern Nation's netizens.
["So this is Dragon Nation's strongest guild and professionals? They seem pretty weak!"]
["Weak? More like trash! Our top three professionals could slaughter them like dogs."]
["And that so-called Ice Emperor, one of Dragon Nation's three strongest? He looked great in the arena, but now he's beaten like a dog by our Emperor!"]
People from other countries even joined the mockery.
A netizen from Alpine Nation: ["Dragon Nation seems pretty average. Losing to Eastern Nation? Their rank as the third strongest is undeserved."]
A Cold Nation bystander: ["Wow, Dragon Nation got crushed so badly. They're really getting slapped in the face at home!"]
Furious, Wu Haotian slammed the table and yelled,"Damn it! I can't take this anymore!"
"I'm heading to Eastern Nation to slaughter all those little scumbags! Don't try to stop me."
But as soon as he said that, everyone just stared at him.
Not one person tried to stop him.
Wu Haotian fell silent,"Wait, seriously, no one's stopping me?"
"Could you at least pretend to stop me?"
"...Fine, I'll stop trying to show off..."
Everyone present was seething with rage.
Only Zhang Yue remained calm, sipping his porridge.
"No need to get angry at these people," he said lightly.
"Just use strength to shut them up."
Wu Haotian looked at him in awe. "As expected of the king of composure. Even your words are badass!"
Learning from Ice Emperor that the spatial rift would take until tonight at the earliest to be ready, Zhang Yue entered Otherworld early in the day.
He aimed to clear the Twelfth World by the end of the day.
