He headed to the Wanderer's Shop to spend its accumulated wealth, only to find it had upgraded and earned far more than he expected.

• Shi Feng introduced Bai Qingxue’s hundred-person team and agreed with Water Rose and Kele to clear out the ambushers; the team removed their cloaks and revealed they were Level 95 and 96.

Water Rose and Zero Wing’s main force revealed their astonishing levels, deterring smaller groups from targeting Shi Feng but prompting major powers to keep watching him. When they reached the Tower of the World’s exit, they found Zero Wing had already crushed an ambush of more than four thousand experts without losing anyone.

• Kele tanked the attacks while Water Rose, Zhao Yueru, Half-Summer Allure, and Zi Yan Liu Yun wiped out the attackers; more than ninety-five percent of the four thousand-plus experts died, and Zero Wing suffered no casualties.

Shi Feng led Zero Wing to the Northern Fortress after its Level 95 main force wiped out thousands of ambushers, frightening Dragonheart Island’s major powers. At the fortress, Feng Qianyu questioned how they could overcome its powerful defenses, and Shi Feng began summoning something with the Heroic Ancient Book.

• Zero Wing’s Level 95 team defeated the thousands of experts who had ambushed Shi Feng, leaving the other powers afraid to follow him.
• Feng Qianyu realized Water Rose and the others had Level 95 Adamantite Grade equipment or better, and news of the battle spread across Dragonheart Island.
• Elder Wu learned that Zero Wing’s equipment was exceptionally strong but ordered the Thirteen Royal Courts to prepare to cooperate with Star Ring on a fortress raid.
• Shi Feng led his group to the Northern Fortress, where Feng Qianyu explained that its magic barrier, walls, undead army, and four Level 100 Legendary guardian Bosses made it difficult to conquer.
• Shi Feng said they needed to break the barrier quickly and destroy the four defensive magic towers, then sacrificed fifty thousand Magic Crystals and began chanting with the Heroic Ancient Book.

Shi Feng and Zero Wing led Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion in a costly assault on the Northern Fortress, destroying its defensive magic towers and defeating its powerful undead guardians. Zero Wing captured the fortress and became its lord.

• After the Undead Warriors and Undead Warlords fell, Shi Feng ordered everyone into the fortress to destroy its four defensive magic towers before the barrier could recover.
• Inside, Shi Feng and the others encountered two Legendary Undead Overseers and the Level 103 Ancient Demon King of Dead Spirits, whose attacks devastated the advancing players.

After Zero Wing captured Northern Fortress, the major powers on Dragonheart Island debated whether it could hold the medium-sized fortress, while Battle Blood and the Nine Dragons Emperor moved to contain it. Shi Feng remained confident as he turned to the fortress’s defensive magic tower.

• Players across the Earthcore Mountain Range reacted with surprise when the announcement confirmed that Zero Wing had conquered Northern Fortress.
