Global Descent to Sky Islands: Getting a God-level Talent from the Start - Chapter 36

Meanwhile, when Black Hawk was entangled by the level 5 elite monster, Vengeful Spirit.

Papaya Star Spirit and Whisperer also encountered different monsters.

Although the attributes and skills of these monsters varied, they shared a common characteristic, that they were extremely troublesome.

This was no coincidence.

In fact, when each survivor arrived in this world, the terrain generated was nearly identical.

Each area had a similar number of clouds and elite monsters unique to its region. Apart from some hidden entities, these elite monsters were the strongest in their respective areas.

Just like Han Xing encountered the Gray Rock Giant Wolf in the first area, defeating it allowed him to move on to a new area.

But that Gray Rock Giant Wolf was merely equivalent to a Novice Village Boss. Compared to the monsters Black Hawk and Whisperer faced, it wasn’t nearly as challenging.

And now, as Whisperer and others advanced further, they finally confronted the most powerful entities in this area, and were entangled in intense battles.

As everyone eagerly anticipated the emergence of the final victor.

After waiting for more than an hour, the top 3 on the leaderboard seemed to have come to an agreement, as their scores remained motionless.

On the chat channel, many people were puzzled.

“What’s going on? Why are the scores on the leaderboard not changing? Did the top 3 agree to take a nap together?”

“Don’t rush, let’s wait a little longer. Maybe they’re taking a temporary break, preparing for the final sprint.”

“There is indeed that possibility. Given the current situation, do you think there could be any changes in who takes 1st place in the end?”

“Don’t even think about it, Whisperer has too big of an advantage right now, the 1st place is definitely his!”

However, someone protested: “Star River had a huge advantage before. Many people said he was sure to take first, but now? He can’t even hold onto the top 20.”

“Star River? He’s just a guy who got lucky, not someone who can compete on the big stage.”

No one in the chat channel refuted this. Ever since Han Xing dropped out of the top 20, few voices have been supporting him.

Just then, someone exclaimed in surprise: “Huh, Star River is back in the top 20!”

“What?” Many survivors were taken aback.

“643 points! What was his score before?”

Because people lost interest in Han Xing, no one knew what his score was earlier, but the increase must have been significant!

Yet, some who had opinions about Star River still dismissed it, saying: “So what if he’s in the top 20, the gap with Whisperer and the others is too big, a gap of nearly 300 points would take at least a day to catch up!”

“Yeah, Star River has no chance. We don’t need to discuss him anymore.”

However, what they didn’t know was that Han Xing had increased his score by nearly 200 points in just 3 hours!

This terrifying speed is something even Whisperer, as a Mage, could only dream of matching.

Although these people didn’t notice it.

But Cheng Jianyong has always kept a close eye on Han Xing’s ranking.

After seeing Han Xing’s ranking skyrocket.

In the group chat, Cheng Jianyong eagerly asked: “Brother Xing, are you starting to make an effort??”

At that moment, Han Xing was happily gaining experience behind ‘Coal.’

Seeing the message in the group chat, he replied with a smile: “Yes.”

Cheng Jianyong immediately became excited, “Haha, I knew you were saving up your energy for a big move, Brother Xing! Shen Yun, look at this, a 200 points increase in 3 hours, that’s enough to astonish anyone!”

Hearing this, Shen Yun was also surprised: “Wow, that fast? Brother Xing, did you take some kind of drug?”

Han Xing laughed and said: “Yeah, I took something. I still have some here, would you like some?”

Shen Yun instinctively declined: “No, no, I’m still young, I don’t need that.”

Cheng Jianyong chimed in: “Haha, Brother Xing, you should keep that for yourself. Xiao Yun and I are in great shape and don’t need that stuff to still enjoy a vigorous night!”

However, Han Xing joked in a strange tone: “Are you sure you don’t want it? The effect of this drug is surprisingly good. One dose, and you’ll be full of energy!”

Shen Yun quickly refused.

But Cheng Jianyong cautiously tested the waters: “Brother Xing, is it really that strong? How about… let me try?”

“Hahaha!” Han Xing burst into laughter: “I bet you’re starting to feel the pressure as a married man, Cheng Jianyong! Gotcha!”

Shen Yun joined in with hearty laughter.

At this moment, Cheng Jianyong’s face turned completely embarrassed.

Han Xing said at this moment: “Alright, I’ll stop teasing you.”

Then, Han Xing initiated a trade request with them.

The two accepted with strange expressions.

However, when they saw Han Xing handing them 20 bottles of Basic Life Potion in one go, there was a collective gasp in the group chat.

“Hiss…”

Cheng Jianyong, feeling somewhat incredulous, said, “Life Potion!”

He smiled wryly and said: “Brother Xing, was that the potion you mentioned that can rejuvenate someone with just a sip?”

“Yes.”

Han Xing laughed and said: “I wasn’t lying to you, I’ve tested this potion, and its effects are extraordinary!”

“Unless you’re missing an arm or a leg, or have suffered a fatal blow, 1 bottle of this potion can save you.”

“If your physique is a bit better, you might not even have to worry about injuries. You could face those monsters head-on!”

At this moment, Shen Yun cautiously asked: “Brother Xing, you mean…”

Han Xing nodded, “Yes, next, we need to change our strategy. With the Life Potions in hand, we can go all out and more boldly challenge those clouds.”

“I’ve seen your rankings, Shen Yun is at 27, and Cheng Jianyong is at 36. As long as we go all out, even if not top 3, getting into the top 10 shouldn’t be a problem!”

Hearing Han Xing’s thoughts, the two were extremely surprised.

However, Cheng Jianyong gritted his teeth and said: “Damn, with something like a Life Potion and Brother Xing’s strong support behind us, we won’t only aim for the top 10, we’ll crush the top 3!”

“I’m going to sprint!”

Shen Yun also became excited and exclaimed: “Charge!”

At this moment, while Whisperer and the others were encountering a formidable enemy and stuck without progress.

The rankings of Han Xing’s team were soaring like a rocket.

643 points…

674 points…

712 points…

Almost every few minutes, one could see his territory score increase again.

Such a terrifying rate of increase naturally caught the attention of many survivors in the chat channel.

“Look! Star River’s ranking has improved again, he’s now 13th!”

“So fast! It’s been less than half an hour, right? He’s already added over 70 points. That’s terrifying!”

“Oh my god, should I say it’s expected of Pro Star River? As soon as he makes a move, he directly challenges our common sense!”

The chat channel once again buzzed with discussions about Han Xing.

However, there were still many people who were critical of Han Xing and sneered: “So what if he’s increasing rapidly? He’s still over 200 points behind Whisperer. I told you, he doesn’t stand a chance anymore.”

“Yes, and who knows, maybe Star River is rushing so fast just because he’s lucky?”

“Good luck doesn’t last forever.”

At this moment, no one jumped in to refute.

However, some people noticed changes in the rankings of two other individuals.

Among the survivors, someone exclaimed: “Look quickly, ‘Lonely Hero’ and ‘Cloud Dawn’ are also skyrocketing in the rankings!”

“I saw it with my own eyes, they’ve increased by over 40 points in just half an hour!”

“What?”

The chat channel buzzed with astonishment.

At the same time, someone said gravely: “It seems that, at the last moment, everyone is starting to sprint!”
