Who Else Felt Redeemed Seeing a "6" in the Top 100?
This light, flattering compliment made him feel somewhat unreal.
Mental fortitude? Competence?
Xu Xi forced a helpless smile.
Only he himself knew that what was truly impressive was just the Rollback.
But looking at it from another angle, isn't having the ability to Rollback a bit a kind of awesomeness in a way?
Outside world.
The player Floor Count information released by God Hunt have caused a huge uproar worldwide.
Their previous ranking system, based on the number of times players had completed the game, has become completely ineffective.
Huaguo.
Thread: [Discussion] Who understands the sense of redemption I felt when I saw a "6" in the top 100?
1L (LZ): As usual, let's start with a handsome picture of Xu Xi to set the tone!
Attached: Image. jpg (The young man in the photo stands in a dazzling white light, raising his hand to wave goodbye, his posture remarkably calm and composed.)
2L (LZ): As the title says, I couldn't wait to check the rankings as soon as they were released. The top 100 were fine, although there were some changes, but not many. However, when I saw number 71, I thought: Xu Xi? Who has the same name as my pro?? Then I looked at the number of Dungeons cleared, 6, and I thought:???
3L: I'm relieved to see that I'm not the only one who finds this absurd.
4L: Actually, Xu Xi's Dungeons look difficult, they are indeed not simple.
5L: The qualifying rounds and Mixed-Team Competition probably give more Floor Count, right? After all, looking at this Mixed-Team Competition, apart from 248, no one survived. The difficulty was ridiculously high.
6L: This level of difficulty is typical for Mixed-Team Competition. Not many players survived in the first three tournaments. The first one was a bit better, with three players surviving, but in the next two, only one player survived each time.
7L: Comrades, I just saw a joke and wanted to share it with you. Some people in Kimchi Country have started to do research, saying that some of Xu Xi's facial features match the physiognomy of some ancient nobles in their country, and maybe he has Kimchi Country blood in his ancestors.
8L: I'm laughing so hard I'm going to throw up. Why don't they just say the whole Earth belongs to their country? See if God Hunt even bothers with them.
9L: Maybe it's because this Mixed-Team Competition was too brutal, and it broke my spirit.
10L: Many foreign media outlets are now questioning Xu Xi, the big boss, took the key Item by himself, causing the remaining players to get stuck, and they are condemning him.
11L: That's really rude. What do you mean by "stolen"? It's clearly because that Item was destined for Xu Xi. Besides, let them condemn us, the big boss can't hear us anyway.
12L: Holy crap! Have you guys seen the latest video posted on a certain website by He Sanshui?
13L: Didn't watch it, what video?
14L: Xu Xi's method of clearing the dungeon is actually a shortcut that exploits Dungeon. The original method still exists, but the remaining players just haven't found it yet. You can watch the video for a detailed analysis.

15L:?? ber, wait, there are shortcuts in Dungeons???
16L: I'm back now that I've finished reading it. So, those players were actually misled by 248, right?
17L: So this is what they mean by "Those who learn from me live, those who imitate me die"?
18L: Just kidding, you'll die even if you learn it.
19L: Haha, let's see what those foreign media outlets have to say now. It's clearly their own players who aren't good enough, yet they're blaming it on Xu Xi.
20L: Speaking of which, our country now has two Elimination Cards, right?
21L: Yes, Kid and 248yyds, these two Elimination Cards are our last line of defense in Huaguo.
20L: By the way, have you guys seen the Global Rankings? The number one one is "Heger Nottison," and the country is listed as "Honey Country." Forgive my ignorance, but I couldn't find it on the map.
21L: That country is called a country, but it's actually just a small island, only the size of one of our cities.
22L: I see. It's just a second-tier team. Our great Huaguo is full of talented people; let him stay in first place a little longer.
Since God Hunt announced the specific Floor Count rankings of players, the general public's mental state has undergone a subtle but positive change.
Before this, they only felt that the 999th floor was an endless journey, with a huge unknown and fear hanging over their heads.
But now, the emergence of the Floor Count Rankings has made those who originally thought 999 floors was out of reach truly perceive this illusory end point for the first time.
Like a lighthouse on a dark sea, though its light is faint, it can be chased and surpassed.
The future may still be difficult, but at least it is no longer completely shrouded in mystery.
J Province.
On the outskirts of the city.
Ji Yang stood behind a Perimeter Line, his hands in the pockets of his Windbreaker, his gaze fixed on the dark gray substance that was slowly but undeniably spreading in the distance.
The substance had no fixed shape; it was like a writhing fog absorbing all light, or like thick asphalt, silently devouring everything it touched.
The dark and gloomy atmosphere instinctively evoked feelings of panic and unease.
Just yesterday.
The moment Xu Xi left the Dungeon, the God Hunt's announcement followed --
"Huaguo Player Xu Xi successfully completed the fourth Mixed National Team Competition. Contamination has been eradicated from the entire J Province."
This province, which had suffered heavy Contamination from a series of failed attempts at Dungeon, was finally greeted by long-awaited, completely clean sunshine.
However, the brilliance of beauty is always fleeting.
In the blink of an eye, the edge that had just regained clarity seemed to come alive and began to spread again.
He knew that this was due to new Contamination caused by players from J Province failing to clear the Dungeon again.
Even though he had witnessed this scene once before after the previous Mixed-Team Competition, seeing it again now still sent a familiar chill, mixed with a sense of powerlessness, creeping up his spine.
Behind every inch of land swallowed by darkness once more lies a name that perished in the Dungeon.
One player might clear one area after completing the level, only to find two more areas dirty in the blink of an eye.
A sentence subconsciously surfaced in Ji Yang's mind--
A protracted and arduous tug-of-war that barely prolongs life...
Just then, my phone suddenly vibrated.
It was a live stream notification he set up.
When he opened his phone to see which player he was following had entered the Dungeon, the notification that had just popped up on his lock screen instantly grabbed all his attention.
In the notification bar, that name, short and clear, silently caught his eye.
Xu Xi.
Ji Yang's heart skipped a beat.
He hadn't expected that the young man, even after the Mixed-Team Competition, wouldn't plan to rest much.
He immediately looked up, glanced one last time at the slowly expanding edge of Contamination not far away, and then turned and ran without hesitation toward the Off-road Vehicle parked on the other side.
As he drove away from the area, he quickly accessed the Livestream Room.
Let's talk about emo later, watching the live stream is more important.
