Crushed: Cheaters Among Cheaters
Upon hearing this, Li Gong's eyes lit up with keen interest.
To be able to compete on the same stage as the most outstanding talents, and to successfully climb the Combat Power Ranking, one can become famous throughout the heavens and leave a mark on history.
Even if in the end they cannot escape the Lord God, and ultimately die and their essence dissipates, they will still leave their name in all the heavens and myriad realms.
They won't simply fade away like roadside weeds, unnoticed by anyone.
His eyes blazed with fierce fighting spirit as he scanned the crowd and transmitted his Divine Sense telepathically. "Your ideas are not bad."
We have overcome countless life-or-death situations, and our combat prowess has been honed through countless battles.
Even if those system hosts have the advantage of Fairness System, they may not be able to defeat us.
Why not give it a try? If you make it onto the Combat Power Ranking, you'll become famous throughout the heavens and the world, and your name will be etched in history.
Even if they ultimately cannot escape the control of the Lord God and die in the mission, they will not be forgotten.
Lin Lie's eyes shone brightly, and he nodded repeatedly, transmitting his Divine Sense:
"The captain is right! Even if we cannot escape death, we must make sure that all living beings remember our names."
Unlike most reincarnators, they cannot die silently, with no one knowing who they are or where they came from.
"That's right! Even if we can't escape death in the end, we will still be famous throughout the heavens and be remembered by the world!"
Even if we were just passing through, we were still here." The others chimed in.
They always face death and live in constant danger when carrying out missions for the Lord God.
As Huaxia people from Earth, we all hope to leave our mark on history and do not want to end up unknown and fade into obscurity.
Li Gong smiled slightly, "Let's find an inn to stay in first, and then go and challenge the Trial Tower."
At the same time, he familiarized himself with the Fairness System and learned about various intelligence in the Azure Billows Realm, while also inquiring about the channels for reserve recruitment.
If you successfully register, you'll have the opportunity to join the newly formed team, and only then will you have a chance to complete the Lord God's mission.
After saying that, he strode forward.
Before long, the group found an inn and rented a private courtyard.
As soon as everyone stepped into the courtyard, an array was activated, isolating the entire courtyard.
"Let's go and challenge the Trial Tower, and see the true level of these system hosts."
Li Gong's Divine Sense entered the Trial Tower, initiating the challenge.
Lin Lie, Zhou Yuxi, and the others followed closely behind, entering the Trial Tower together to attempt the challenges.
Half an hour later, everyone left the Trial Tower one after another.
Looking at the Combat Power Ranking, their names were nowhere to be found. The group's faces froze instantly, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"I didn't even make it onto the Combat Power Ranking?"
Impossible! My strength is definitely among the top in the same realm.
"The system host's strength is actually this formidable? Even my combat power, honed through countless life-and-death battles, cannot contend with it?"
"I don't believe it! I'm going to try again!"
The group entered the Trial Tower again to continue their challenge.
Another half hour passed, and the challenge ended. Everyone hurriedly checked the Combat Power Ranking, but still couldn't find their names.
The group looked at each other, finding it extremely difficult to accept.
"Could there be a system error? Our combat strength isn't weak compared to others in the same realm, so how come we don't even qualify for the rankings?"
"I can't accept this! All the strength I've honed through life-and-death experiences can't even get me onto the Combat Power Ranking."
"It seems the overall strength of the system hosts in the Azure Billows Realm is simply too terrifying. They all have cheat codes, they're practically overpowered, so it's normal that we can't compete with them."
Li Gong's expression was equally grim. Even with the State of Mind honed through hundreds of missions to become the Lord God, he almost couldn't hold back at this moment.
His cultivation was entirely genuine, honed through hard work and battles, without taking any shortcuts.
The reality is that he couldn't even make it onto the Heavenly Immortal Realm Combat Power Ranking in the Azure Billows Realm, which is truly hard to accept.
He had considered the possibility that the Fairness System was flawed, but he quickly dismissed the idea.
Fairness System has numerous amazing features, so it's impossible for it to have any flaws in such a fundamental matter.
The answer is obvious: with his current combat strength, he certainly doesn't meet the criteria for being on the list.
The cruel reality was heartbreaking, leaving him feeling heavy-hearted.
He took several deep breaths, barely managing to compose himself, and looking at the distressed expressions on everyone's faces, he spoke up to comfort them:
There's no need for everyone to be too discouraged.
Those who make it onto the Combat Power Ranking are all system hosts; they're all cheaters.
Although we are reincarnated beings, we still fall short compared to them.
It's not hard to see that the Fairness System's functions are superior to the Lord God Space. They have unique advantages, and it's normal that we are not as good as them for the time being.
Fortunately, we have now successfully bound ourselves to the Fairness System, which allows us to become stronger and still have the opportunity to climb the Combat Power Ranking in the future.
Never let a single setback shake your resolve on the path.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions softened, and their fighting spirit rekindled in their eyes.
"The captain is right. Those system hosts are basically cheaters. It's normal that we can't beat them for now."
Now that we've integrated with the Fairness System, it's still uncertain who will be stronger or weaker in the future!
"We possess the dual resources of the Fairness System and the Lord God Space, giving us a far greater advantage than the system hosts. We will definitely surpass them in the future!"
The joy on Lin Lie's face vanished instantly, his eyes widened, his mouth slightly agape, and he couldn't help but gasp in surprise:
Holy crap! Cheating! They really cheated!
These system hosts are using way too many cheats; we can't catch up at all!
The mood that everyone had just lifted was abruptly shattered by Lin Lie.
They looked at him, puzzled, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Although they have the support of Fairness System, we are now also bound to the system, and we will have a chance to catch up in the future. How can you say they are cheating?"
Lin Lie gave a wry smile and quickly explained, "I was just curious about why their combat strength was so exaggerated, so I searched on TikTok."
That's when I realized they were a bunch of total cheaters!
They not only have Fairness System in place, but their main cultivation of Dao Seed Martial Dao System is also extremely powerful.
This system emphasizes the simultaneous cultivation of 'essence, energy, spirit, and the Dao', and one can achieve initial integration upon reaching the Return to Oneness Realm.
Improving in any one area can simultaneously boost the other three, making the cultivation speed ridiculously fast.
Even more outrageous, they could even embark on the path of creating their own methods and become Dao Ancestor.
The most terrifying thing is that they had already cultivated the Great Dao Divine Soul and the Great Dao Body before they became True Immortal, and their Root Bone qualities and aptitudes had been completely transformed.
Not only are they powerful in combat within their own realm and have excellent survivability, but breaking through to the Immortal King and Immortal Lord is also a breeze for them.
Moreover, the Great Dao Body can be passed down to future generations, whose bloodlines and physiques are powerful and whose talents are extraordinary.
Nowadays, those competing with us are mostly system hosts with the Great Dao Body, definitely the most overpowered of all!
In comparison, we have absolutely no advantage now!
Upon hearing this, everyone froze, their State of Mind crumbling completely, and they could no longer maintain their calm.
Some people trembled in shock, some even instinctively jumping up, while others couldn't control their breath, their incredulous exclamations rising and falling.
"What?! You're telling the truth?! How can such a cheat system exist in the world?!"
"So this is the kind of super-powerful opponent we're facing! Do we really still have a chance to catch up with them?"
"Cheating, it really is cheating! No wonder there are True Immortal and Heavenly Immortal everywhere in the Azure Billows Realm, it turns out their cheat codes were never turned off from beginning to end."
