This was Zhou Yue's fifth attempt at Tower Climbing.
The Iron Armor Sect Cultivator excelled at fire techniques and blades. Zhou Yue felt the character was quite like him, so he played four runs in a row and got beaten until his head spun.
For this run, he chose the Silent Hunter.
To Zhong Yi's surprise, Zhou Yue's luck actually wasn't as bad as usual.
[Genius Cultivator: Blade Dance, take Blade Dance! This card is freaking amazing—it turns single-target attacks into area attacks!]
[Genius Cultivator: Escape Plan! A draw card that costs 0 spiritual energy! How can you pass that up?]
[Genius Cultivator: Take Master of Strategy... tricks are insanely good, trust me!]
Zhong Yi coached him the whole way, growing more astonished at how unusual this was.
Though it wasn't as smooth as his own run earlier, it definitely counted as a strong opening hand, nothing like Zhou Yue's usual experience.
Under Zhong Yi's guidance, Zhou Yue's Shiv deck took shape, and he easily defeated the Boss at the end of the first floor.
On the second floor, even the regular monsters that had once put him under immense pressure fell like melons and vegetables beneath his blade.
[Genius Cultivator: Damn, Old Zhou, did you get Junior Sister Qiaoling to draw for you? This luck doesn't look anything like yours!]
Zhou Yue scoffed at Zhong Yi's danmu.
"What kind of talk is that? I train hard in the Illusion Realm every day. If I can break free of this fate once, I can do it twice!"
Hearing this, Zhong Yi felt genuinely happy for his good brother.
[Genius Cultivator: Go, Old Zhou! Your deck is complete, and you have no rivals left in the Immortal Tower... kick that elite room's door down! No elite can survive long enough
