Han Wu found five tokens among the contestants. Four were Iron, and one was Bronze, giving him six points in total. He took the Bronze token and one Iron token before handing them to Lady i, splitting the points evenly.
She accepted the tokens and studied him with curiosity. “Little Han Wu, are you feeling alright? Do you sense anything unusual?”
Han Wu smiled and placed so distance between them. “Sorry, but I’m immune to most poisons.”
Lady i’s eyes widened in surprise. This was the first ti soone showed immunity to her illusory poison. Her interest in Han Wu deepened instantly.
They pressed onward until they spotted a Platinum token, guarded by a swarm of monsters. Three Platinum and several hundred Gold monsters surrounded it. A regular adventurer would struggle to approach, let alone seize the token.
anwhile, Han Wu had a foolproof plan. He clapped his hands, instantly swapping places with the token. Before the monsters realized what had happened, he switched places again with a nearby stone. Lady i stared at the Platinum token in his hand with awe. The solution had been far simpler than she expected!
Han Wu pocketed the token and called out, “Run! The monsters will chase us soon.”
Lady i snapped out of it and sprinted alongside him, quickly putting distance between themselves and the pursuing monsters.
Once they escaped, Han Wu opened his personal space and tossed the token inside. Isolating its scent from the world ensured that the monsters could never track them, no matter how sharp their noses.
Using the sa tactic, they quickly gathered many tokens as they traveled and steadily accumulated nurous points. Their growing activity, however, didn’t go unnoticed. One of the major factions, the Shadow Alliance, had caught wind of their movents. They had also sent six contestants, including a Diamond adventurer.
“Boss, that brat has so kind of title with spatial effects. If we capture him, we can take it for ourselves and claim first place,” one of the adventurers reported to the Diamond adventurer.
The Diamond adventurer shared the sa thought. Adventurers with spatial abilities were notoriously difficult to catch, but he had a secret weapon. One of his own titles, Isolated Void, created a zone within 100 ters that blocked any spatial powers. It was, essentially, an anti-space title.
“Kill them. The rchant Alliance will lose once those two are dead,” he commanded. The five Platinum adventurers nodded and moved quickly to surround Han Wu and Lady i.
“Young man, we are from the Shadow Alliance. We’ve tracked your every move. Be smart and hand over your tokens. At the very least, we’ll leave your corpses intact,” one said.
Lady i trembled. The Shadow Alliance was among the four largest factions, renowned for their reconnaissance and intelligence gathering. It seed they knew everything about her and Han Wu, leaving no chance to escape.
Their threat didn’t faze Han Wu. “If you’re so strong, try taking it from my personal space yourself.”
“Fine. We’ll do it the hard way. Everyone, kill that bastard.” The five lunged forward at once.
Han Wu prepared to fight seriously. Platinum adventurers were still formidable opponents. He summoned his Genocider greatsword and charged at one of the nearest attackers.
The Shadow Alliance’s contestants chuckled.
How strong can a Gold adventurer’s title really be? One of them thought confidently, I am a Platinum adventurer standing near the top, with a Diamond title that grants powerful defenses. I could take that sword without even trying.
That contestant’s confidence soon proved fatal. He beca the first unlucky one out of the five. He didn’t dodge the attack, and Han Wu swung the Genocider greatsword from above, slicing the man clean in half, from head to leg.
Han Wu blinked in confusion. This was the first ti he had seen soone surrender their life so easily in the Title Civilization. The remaining contestants snapped to attention, alard by their comrade’s swift death.
“Everyone, be careful. Iron Head just got cut down. There’s sothing strange about that greatsword!”
For him to easily kill a Platinum adventurer with the greatsword ant that he possessed a Diamond title. They couldn’t help but suspect that he was the rchant Alliance’s leader’s bastard son. Otherwise, how could Han Wu have obtained such a powerful title on his own?
The remaining four hesitated until the Diamond adventurer stepped forward and pushed the n back with overwhelming pressure. Han Wu nearly faltered under the intense pressure.
“A re Gold adventurer dares to ambush us of the Shadow Alliance? What a pathetic stunt!” the Diamond adventurer spat as Han Wu stood up. It was a cheap shot, and the other four nodded.
“Yes, we must avenge our brother. How dare he ambush us like this!”
“Despicable bastard. Fight !”
Han Wu laughed at their insults. They were about to die, yet they still tried to shift the bla onto him. It seed the Shadow Alliance valued their honor more than their lives.
“Stop talking crap and co at ,” Han Wu taunted.
The Diamond adventurer knew the risks and wouldn’t step forward. Han Wu had already killed the Platinum adventurer effortlessly, so the Diamond adventurer feared he would suffer the sa fate. Instead, he kept his distance and cast powerful magic, enclosing Han Wu and Lady i within a formidable barrier. He then stood still and perford gestures to compress the barrier. With each movent, the barrier contracted.
“It will be an honor for you to die under my strongest title, Isolated Void.” The man moved his hands again, tightening the barrier further. If he continued, Han Wu and Lady i would be crushed into at paste.
Han Wu tried to use Planeswalker to escape with Lady i, but he couldn’t sense the surrounding space. Even worse, the cramped conditions made it impossible to wield the Genocider greatsword; there wasn’t enough room to swing it.
Han Wu would die if this kept up, so he unleashed his full strength. Activating Soul Cut, he locked eyes with the Diamond adventurer and blinked. In the next instant, two invisible scalpels forged from Soul Energy pierced deep into the man’s soul.
The Diamond adventurer froze in agony, and the barrier stopped shrinking. Han Wu seized the opening and transford into his black dragon form, shattering the barrier with sheer physical force.
The Platinum adventurers saw Han Wu’s transformation and fled. They had no chance against him in his normal form, let alone this one.
Han Wu ignored them and glared at the injured Diamond adventurer. “You bastard. Now, it’s my turn.”
