This time, Excellent Dynasty’s advantage in manpower was finally showing. The other guilds also had their first-string players come to Sin City, but they didn’t have nearly as many players as Excellent Dynasty did.

The current Excellent Dynasty was quite weak in the Heavenly Domain though, because many of their experts went to the tenth server.

In the Heavenly Domain, the competition there was in a deadlock. There was no way of breaking it in a short amount of time. Chen Yehui had put everything at stake and invested heavily into the tenth server. They had to be in a leading position.

Currently, things weren’t going too well. Even though they took down Frost Forest, Liu Hao stopped helping them and the later top dungeon records had come under the monopoly of Lord Grim. However, Chen Yehui had learned from this. Now whenever they moved out, they would always weigh the pros and cons first and wouldn’t act out on impulse.

“Check the eleventh page.” Chen Yehui messaged Wind Following Sword.

Wind Following Sword checked and immediately understood what the guild leader wanted him to see.

Lord Grim, 218th place.

“This guy’s rising so quickly!”

“Correct. He wasn’t even on the leaderboards an hour ago. But now, he’s already risen to the 218th place. Even though the difference in points is still very large between him and us, I’ve calculated it and, at his speed, after three hours, he’ll have entered our ranks. And you know who Cleansing Mist, the one on the fourteenth page, is, right? She’ll also rise up, sooner or later. But for her, she probably won’t have the time to maintain her record, so we don’t have to worry too much about that. However, it’s hard to say about that guy.” Chen Yehui replied.

“But…… even if they rise up, we still have the majority!” Wind Following Sword said.

“Do you still not understand? As long as he rises up, the public will be entirely focused on him. No one would care about how outstanding our achievements are. All they would pay attention to is the fact that Lord Grim has once again stepped all over us again. You look at any dungeon record from any other server. Can you say that the second place record is bad? But what about in the tenth server? All of the records he tramples over are all terrible compared to his! The entire guild immediately looks like trash. Has this ever happened in any other server? He’s the entire reason for this unhealthy trend.”

“So you’re saying……” Wind Following Sword was starting to understand Chen Yehui’s intent.

“That’s why we definitely can’t let him climb up the ladder. We can’t let this little rat spoil our porridge.” Chen Yehui’s message seemed to have sound and color to it.

Wind Following Sword saw Chen Yehui’s determination. He was someone very close to Chen Yehui in the guild and understood the relationship between Chen Yehui and Ye Qiu. This time, Chen Yehui had thought the plan through, but were there some personal reasons mixed in? Wind Following Sword didn’t ask. Perhaps this was for the better. The guild’s and his own personal interests were in alignment.

“What do you think we should do?” Wind Following Sword asked.

“I’ll give you some players. You deal with it. That doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to fight him. As long as you delay him, that’s enough. You think of a method!” Chen Yehui handed the task to Wind Following Sword. Wind Following Sword’s craftiness was famous in the Heavenly Domain. Against Ye Qiu, fighting him with brute force clearly wouldn’t work. It would require lots of effort and time.. and it might even end up biting them back. But through more secretive methods, letting Lord Grim silently suffer a bit would be better. Wind Following Sword was undoubtedly the most suitable choice. Even if he was the one to personally move out, he might not be as cunning as Wind Following Sword.

“Alright. I’ll do it!” Wind Following Sword wanted to take some revenge, too. He was quite confident in himself here. Ye Qiu was undoubtedly a top-tier God, but his many years of playing had been aimed towards the way professionals played against each other. In the game, things weren’t as simple as just winning and losing matches. Wind Following Sword decided that he would have this God taste the wisdom and tricks of an in-game player.

As he thought, Wind Following Sword checked the Christmas Hunting Leaderboards.

Terrible! They had only talked for a bit and Lord Grim had already risen. He had been at 218th place before. Now he was at 211th.
