Chapter 1 What is Miao Wu-yin Doing Here?

"That's Gu Han's arena. What is Miao Wu-yin doing going there?"

"She probably wants to challenge Gu Han."

"Challenge Gu Han? Is she crazy?"

The new generation of various families, who were originally vying for the eighth arena, couldn't help but shift their gaze to Miao Wu-yin as they saw her suddenly heading towards the first arena, curious about what she was up to.

"Second Sister?" Fen Xiao was also stunned.

Even if she wanted to get into the top eight, she shouldn't challenge Gu Han.

Gu Han's strength had always been far ahead of everyone else, practically on a different level altogether. Now, with the vigorous training from the Violet Sword, his strength was no longer comparable to what it once was.

Challenging Gu Han was just a waste of an opportunity.

At this time, it wasn't just Fen Xiao who was dumbfounded. Yuan Xiaoqian in the second arena was also watching in disbelief, her expression astonished.

If Ling Yue from the Pang family were to challenge Gu Han, there might be a slight chance of success, but what was the situation with Miao Wu-yin, whose combat talent was just average?

This competition wasn't an alchemy competition. They weren't fighting monsters. Even powerful weapons, equipment, and advanced levels wouldn't be of any use. On the arena, everyone's attributes were the same, relying entirely on personal skill. Miao Wu-yin was far behind in this aspect.

In the audience, Miao Wu-yin's actions had caused an uproar, especially among the elders and veterans of the Pang family, who were all anxious.

Striving for the top three was already a very uncertain matter. But if Miao Wu-yin could enter the top eight, and Fen Xiao could secure fourth place, occupying two of the eight spots, it would at least be somewhat acceptable. As for whether they could maintain the dominant position of the Azure Commerce, as long as Miao Wu-yin developed within the Violet Sword, and the Zeus Financial Group no longer participated, the Pang family would be fine.

But wasting a challenge opportunity by directly challenging Gu Han was extremely foolish.

"This girl has some courage," Zui Yan, who was hosting under the arena, couldn't help but glance at Miao Wu-yin, who was already standing in the first arena, praising her slightly.

However, Gu Han in the first arena didn't show any appreciation. His expression was rather unpleasant.

"Wu-yin, it seems you've improved a lot in Zero Wing, to come directly to challenge me," Gu Han said coldly.

This was just the preliminary selection for the eight spots. Even if she wanted to challenge him, if she really had the strength, she could wait until the official competition. Choosing him in the preliminary round was undoubtedly slapping him in the face, telling everyone that he was easy to deal with.

"Yes, my improvement in Zero Wing has indeed been great, so I want to see my current limit," Miao Wu-yin nodded, speaking very seriously.

"So you really are serious." Gu Han, seeing Miao Wu-yin's serious expression, understood that she wasn't toying with him, and without any further ado, he drew the silver greatsword from his back. "In that case, let me see how much you've improved in Zero Wing!"

"Thank you," Miao Wu-yin said gratefully, looking at Gu Han's serious demeanor.

"No need to thank me. I always treat real challengers seriously, but I also hope you don't disappoint me. During the training in the Violet Sword, only Yuan Xiaoqian could barely exchange a few blows with me. Everyone else was too boring, completely unable to make me serious," Gu Han said.

As Gu Han finished speaking, Zui Yan also came to the center of the first arena.

"Since you both have no problems, then let the competition begin." Zui Yan glanced at the two and directly announced the start of the competition.

The audience erupted into an uproar when they heard Zui Yan announce the start of the competition. They didn't expect Gu Han to be serious, and they were all excited.

"I thought I would have to wait until the official competition to see Gu Han and Fen Xiao's serious battle. Now, thanks to that Miao Wu-yin, we can see Gu Han's serious fighting style in advance."

"I wonder how many minutes that Miao Wu-yin can last."

"Minutes? You think too highly of that Miao Wu-yin. Even Fen Xiao probably can't withstand ten moves."

The members of the various forces present had heard of Gu Han's reputation. Many of them had come here to see how strong the monstrous newcomer Gu Han, who could fight the Wildfire Berserker to a draw, really was.

After all, the Wildfire Berserker was a legend in the hearts of many berserkers. Seeing such a great figure fight was almost impossible, but they could experience how strong the Wildfire Berserker was through Gu Han.

In the first arena, after Zui Yan announced the start of the competition, Gu Han and Miao Wu-yin stood at their designated positions in the arena, ready to fight.

"I heard that Yuan Xiaoqian regarded you as a rival, so I will use the move I used to defeat Yuan Xiaoqian to deal with you. Be ready!" Gu Han said, looking at Miao Wu-yin, who was standing 40 yards away.

As Gu Han finished speaking, his figure suddenly split into four. The four figures were exactly the same, making it impossible to distinguish the real from the fake. Moreover, the four figures rushed towards Miao Wu-yin from four different directions, moving as fast as ghosts.

"No way, is Gu Han using the Four Shadow Annihilation right from the start?" The Tier 3 female assassin in the other arena couldn't help but open her mouth wide as she watched the serious Gu Han.

Yuan Xiaoqian, who was not far away, also watched with a slightly gloomy expression.

Gu Han's move was simply unsolvable for her, a magic-based class, because all four figures were both real and fake. Only by attacking all four figures simultaneously could one truly damage Gu Han. But that wasn't the scariest part. The scariest part was Gu Han's control over these four clones, each of them being no different from the original.

In God's Domain, it was normally very difficult to control clones in battle. Even top experts like her would see a drop in their strength when controlling two clones. Experts who had mastered the Domain could control three at best, but Gu Han's control was simply inhuman. Each of the four clones maintained peak performance.

Hitting an expert who has mastered the Domain with a magic skill was very difficult, because they could sense everything within their range and make all kinds of well-timed dodges and the most accurate attacks in advance.

Facing four experts who have mastered the Domain was simply a nightmare.

And for magic-based classes, once they were approached by a melee class, especially an expert who has mastered the Domain, it meant the end of the game.

"Impressive!"

Miao Wu-yin couldn't help but admire Gu Han when she saw these four Gu Hans, each maintaining peak condition.

"Take this! Four Shadow Annihilation!"

Gu Han didn't slow down his actions at all because Miao Wu-yin showed admiration. In an instant, the four clones formed an encirclement around Miao Wu-yin, and the distance between them was only 20 yards, meaning they could reach melee range in the blink of an eye.

Just as Gu Han's four figures were getting closer and closer to Miao Wu-yin, and she was unable to stop them, she suddenly waved the staff in her hand.

In an instant, four ice walls formed at Miao Wu-yin's feet, completely enclosing her on all four sides.

"Ice walls? She doesn't think she can block Gu Han's attacks with this kind of defensive magic, does she?" The Tier 3 female assassin in the arena next door laughed.

Ice walls were at best Tier 2 magic skills. Trying to withstand the full-force attack of a Tier 3 class was impossible, and it wouldn't even buy any time.

"Boring!"

Gu Han was also disappointed, but the greatsword in his hand didn't stop. He directly slashed the ice wall with his sword, and as the greatsword swung, it instantly turned into three, the three greatswords directly merging into one.

Battle Skill: Triple Slash!

Boom!

The greatsword struck the ice wall, and a loud bang echoed throughout the arena.

"How could this be?"

Gu Han was stunned as he looked at the greatsword in his hand, unable to penetrate the ice wall.

The feeling transmitted from the collision was nothing like ice. It was as hard as if he had struck divine iron, and even his hands felt a little numb...
