The young man seemed oblivious to all the gazes focused on him, as well as the tense atmosphere around him.

He even adjusted his posture and then naturally began to eat the food on the table.

An eerie silence fell over the foyer.

[You wouldn't believe it, he's actually still asleep (IP Huaguo)]

[Xu Xi: Just taking a nap, don't mention it (IP Huaguo)]

[Help, I can't take it anymore! He looks just like a college student who just woke up and went straight to the cafeteria to find food! (IP: Huaguo)]

[Ah, that aura of a big shot is overwhelming, but to be fair, he does look very young (very quietly) (IP Huaguo)]

[Others: Life-or-death crisis, on high alert; Xu Xi: Tired, hungry, where's the food? (IP Huaguo)]

[Is this kind of mental fortitude real?? (ip Hans Country)]

[Does he even care about the other players and this Dungeon...? (Coffee Country)]

The other players inside the Dungeon were unaware of the young man's itinerary last night, but netizens from various countries who had been watching the Livestream Room saw it all clearly.

They watched as the Huaguo strolled around "ordinarily" last night, defused the crisis almost childishly, and then... went back to his room, fell asleep immediately, and spent the entire night breathing steadily.

[The other ten players all set up simple warning measures last night, but none of them actually fell asleep. Only this Huaguo player, he really just covered himself with the blanket, closed his eyes, and then... dawn broke (IP Garden Country)]

[I'm starting to believe in some ancient Eastern metaphysics... like, luck? (IP White Elephant Country)]

[Can our players really win? I have serious doubts. I think Huaguo players are just too different (IP United States)]

Gradually, viewers began expressing their concerns in the live chat about whether their team could win the Mixed-Team Competition.

[Even if our athlete can't win, we hope she doesn't lose her life here (IP: Russia)]

[This is only the first day; anything can happen! Even the most arrogant can be defeated by their own arrogance (IP: Beautiful Country)]

[Don't get your hopes up. In the last Mixed-Team Competition, Huaguo players eliminated players from all other countries. They talk about love and peace, but when it comes to actually fighting, they're ruthless! (IP Kimchi Country)]

[Anyone who didn't know better would think your player was so kind, virtuous, and pure. Scheming against others only to get counter-attacked—isn't that just self-destructive? (IP Huaguo)]

[I don't even want to talk to you. Love and peace? Go talk to my kid brother about that. (IP Huaguo)]

Beautiful Country.

Ilira sighed helplessly as she watched the chat erupt in arguments again.

After seeing that the Huaguo player selected for this Mixed-Team Competition was 248, she watched the live stream with extreme seriousness, filled with curiosity and a desire to explore.

It has to be said that, until now, she has finally come to understand the significance of titles such as "248" and "speedrun Dungeon," and has also come to understand the flamboyance and confidence of Huaguo bullet comments.

She had never seen such a bold and composed player before.

It wasn't the kind of composure that disregards life and death, but rather a composure that comes from having the entire Dungeon under control.

Similarly, the other party wasn't ignoring the danger; rather, he already knew where the danger lay.

You can tell from the fact that the other party easily dismissed the eerie presence with just two short sentences, and was too lazy to keep watch while sleeping.

Even though she wasn't Huaguo, she was deeply attracted at that moment.

At the same time, she was also particularly worried about her own athlete, Winniever.

Undoubtedly, Winniever is also an excellent player, but...

Ilira didn't think about it any further.

She sighed again, hoping that this Mixed-Team Competition wouldn't be too intense.

Inside the Dungeon.

All eyes were subtly drawn to the young figure leisurely dining.

There was scrutiny, examination, and wariness.

Daisy was the first to break the silence, chuckling softly, "Looks like someone had a good night's sleep?" Her tone carried a hint of probing.

Saha couldn't help but let out a low snort, probably thinking the young man was putting on airs.

Briman looked at Xu Xi with his blue eyes, a smile playing on his lips, and asked, "Friend, did you sleep well last night? Did you hear any unusual sounds?"

He asked tactfully, but everyone understood what he was asking—whether there had been an attack last night.

Xu Xi looked up, somewhat surprised.

Seeing everyone staring intently at him, as if waiting for his answer.

He thought for a moment and replied truthfully, "Very peaceful." He even slept soundly until dawn.

He paused for a moment, then added, "It's also very quiet."

The young man's tone was so flat and natural, and his answer seemed so perfunctory, that everyone was momentarily speechless.

At this delicate stalemate, everyone saw the young man suddenly tilt his head, his gaze passing over the table and landing precisely on the short-haired woman.

For some inexplicable reason, they unconsciously turned their gazes to the player with the rather artistic air about him.

Suddenly being the center of everyone's attention, Dana's heart skipped a beat, and her brow furrowed almost imperceptibly.

Just as she was about to speak, a gust of wind suddenly swept in from under the table.

Dana reacted with lightning speed and suddenly retreated.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.

Everyone was on edge from this unexpected turn of events.

After the Rollback, Xu Xi knew that short-haired women would be "eliminated" by "something unseen" during this period.

Having waited in vain for the attack, he assumed the other party had escaped, and subconsciously glanced at them.

Unexpectedly, the other party was attacked the next second.

It was indeed that familiar, Blue-Gray Entity.

"What's going on?!" Saha retreated to a distance, looking astonished.

A few steps away from him, Geseling said solemnly, "Something we can't see is attacking her."

Xu Xi stood aside and watched this familiar scene unfold until the short-haired woman, just like the previous one, was forced out of the game.

"Retreat... die..." The short-haired woman uttered two syllables uncontrollably before collapsing to the ground.

Then, he met the gaze of the densely packed Blue Entity.

The leader slowly turned its head and stared straight at him.

"..." Xu Xi calmly reached into her pocket.

No one told him that this event was such a big deal.

Compared to the dozens of Blue Entity from last night, they were nothing.

As his hair stood on end, Xu Xi suddenly realized that the other players indeed couldn't see these Blue Entity.

Then why is he able to see?

Dana's fall put the players on high alert.

The meaningful glance the Huaguo man had given him earlier drew everyone's attention back to him.

This time, his gaze was different from before; it contained deep wariness and suspicion.
