Chapter 101 One Inch Ash

Qiao Yifan's One Inch Ash was about to reach level 30 in just a few days. This leveling speed was faster than Ye Xiu and the others, even faster than the characters of the big guilds who were also online 24 hours a day.

The reason was simple. The characters of the big guilds were always at the forefront of the tenth server, and they needed to complete everything themselves and solve any difficulties on their own. Although Ye Xiu's characters were slightly slower, the situation was similar. Their slowness was mainly due to the time they spent in the game.

However, Qiao Yifan's One Inch Ash, in the hands of a power leveler, had just as much game time as the leading characters of the big guilds. More importantly, Qiao Yifan's One Inch Ash started late. The reason this character could level up so quickly was because his situation was somewhat like being in an old server.

Any character in an old server will definitely level up faster than in a new server, for a simple reason: someone is carrying them.

Although the tenth server didn't have characters as high-level as in the old servers, there were definitely higher-level characters to help One Inch Ash, who had started late. The fastest power leveling service he had commissioned would definitely take full advantage of this.

Ye Xiu naturally understood these factors. Looking at One Inch Ash's leveling speed, he had already determined how this character was leveling up. So he was sure that One Inch Ash would definitely reach level 30 tomorrow.

That's why Ye Xiu had conducted special training in the Desolate Land today. That's why he disbanded the team after Desolate Land and told them not to level up anymore today.

If they continued leveling, they would reach level 31. Once they exceeded the level cap, no matter how good they were, the record they set wouldn't be recognized.

"I really hope tomorrow night comes sooner!" Tang Rou said with emotion, returning to her seat with her teacup.

In the game, Around the Bank Willow continued to spam the world channel for another half hour. Ye Xiu did his own thing, glancing at it whenever he saw it, and ignoring it when he didn't. He obviously didn't take it seriously. Around the Bank Willow? Who was that? How could such a player, just a master among players, attract Ye Xiu's attention?

The night passed, and when dawn broke, it was time to sleep. Around the Bank Willow was a character that couldn't affect Ye Xiu's pace in the slightest.

Tiny Herb Club.

Professional players, of course, couldn't be as unrestrained as Ye Xiu, reversing day and night. Especially someone like Qiao Yifan, on the fringes, who didn't dare to make the slightest mistake, training and resting on time according to the club's schedule every day. During the daytime training, he didn't dare to be distracted in the slightest, but as soon as his private time in the evening arrived, he immediately began to study the ghostblade class. Reading guides, watching videos, and even buying two more ghostblade characters to experiment with himself.

However, what he looked forward to the most was still One Inch Ash, the character he needed to level from scratch, because this character would have the opportunity to receive personal guidance from the Great God Ye Qiu. Just thinking about this made Qiao Yifan inexplicably excited these past few days. He had been sleeping very little recently, but he didn't feel tired at all. He still looked radiant, getting up early every morning. Even his assassin practice during the day felt like he was doing better, he didn't know if it was just psychological.

And this day was the agreed-upon day to hand over the account, meaning that his One Inch Ash would reach level 30 on this day, and he could finally go to the tenth server to ask the Great God Ye Qiu for advice. At noon, Qiao Yifan contacted the power leveler again with some worry, and after confirming that there were no problems with the order, he was naturally even more elated.

"What's wrong, Yifan? You look very happy?" During the afternoon training, his friend Gao Yingjie noticed that Qiao Yifan was in a good mood and couldn't help but ask.

"Hehe, do I?" Qiao Yifan said with a silly smile.

"Are you okay?" Gao Yingjie reached out to touch Qiao Yifan's forehead.

"I'm fine! I'm fine. Hurry, training is starting." Qiao Yifan dodged Gao Yingjie's outstretched right hand, put away his silly smile, and sat down in front of the computer. But before long, without even realizing it himself, the corners of his mouth began to rise slightly again. This didn't escape Gao Yingjie's eyes.

Gao Yingjie was also very clear that his friend's future was uncertain, and he must be under a lot of psychological pressure. It was just a pity that although he was a rising star highly touted by the club, the Great God's successor that people called for, he was still low in status and couldn't help Qiao Yifan in this matter at all. Now that he saw Qiao Yifan's unusually good mood these past few days, he couldn't help but worry about this abnormal behavior.

After the afternoon training, Qiao Yifan hurriedly returned to his room. Gao Yingjie wanted to talk to him but didn't have the chance. As a key newcomer cultivated by the club, he would occasionally receive extra training under the guidance of a Great God. Today, after training, he was about to chase after Qiao Yifan when he was stopped by Captain Wang Jiexi.

After the extra training, it was already dinner time. Gao Yingjie hurried to the club's restaurant but didn't see Qiao Yifan. He asked around his teammates, but Qiao Yifan was such a transparent person that no one noticed whether he had come to the restaurant or not.

Gao Yingjie ran to Qiao Yifan's room, but there was no one there either. Qiao Yifan was nowhere to be found.

Gao Yingjie felt that something was unusual but didn't know what his friend was up to, and he didn't dare to report it to the captain. He quickly called Qiao Yifan. Qiao Yifan answered, but only said that he had gone out for a walk after dinner because he had nothing to do...

"I'll be right back!" Qiao Yifan said vaguely to Gao Yingjie on the phone. He had gone out to get the account card. Although he could get it tomorrow, Qiao Yifan couldn't wait any longer.

However, he didn't want anyone at the club to know about this, so he could only leave quietly. This was easy for someone as transparent as him. Who would have thought that his friend would notice? Qiao Yifan felt a little touched but didn't plan to say anything to Gao Yingjie. This was his own choice and had nothing to do with anyone. Although Gao Yingjie cared about him, he was also very clear that Gao Yingjie couldn't help him at all. Dragging Gao Yingjie along might even cause trouble for his friend, whose future was bright.

Qiao Yifan returned with the account card from the power leveler at more than nine o'clock in the evening. Just like when he left, no one noticed when he returned. Qiao Yifan was opening the door to his room when someone suddenly called out to him. He turned around and saw Gao Yingjie walking over from the training room.

"Yingjie, just finished extra training?" Qiao Yifan greeted him.

"Yeah." Gao Yingjie responded, then casually asked, "Where did you go?"

"Just went for a walk." Qiao Yifan said.

"Do you... is something the matter?" Gao Yingjie said.

"Me? What could be the matter with me!" Qiao Yifan said with a smile, "It's getting late, you should rest early. I'm going back!" Qiao Yifan said, already opening the door.

"Oh..." Gao Yingjie finally just responded with this. He was, after all, an introverted person who wasn't good at socializing. He could tell that Qiao Yifan had something on his mind, but he didn't know how to bring it up. In the end, he was easily blocked outside the door.

Gao Yingjie was stunned for a long time, but in the end, he could only sigh and return to his room.

Qiao Yifan returned to his room, turned on the computer, and immediately logged into Glory with his One Inch Ash. When he went online, he saw Lord Grim was there. He was excited and carefully sent a message: "Senior, I'm level 30."

"Oh, that was quick!" The reply came quickly.

"Let's do a dungeon together tonight! Is it a problem after midnight?" Ye Xiu then sent another message.

"No, no problem!" Qiao Yifan replied excitedly.

"Okay, let's run the Desolate Land. Do you still remember this dungeon?" Ye Xiu asked.

"Yes!" Qiao Yifan said.

"Don't be careless, our goal is to set the record for this server." Ye Xiu said.

"Really? Then I should review it!" Any professional player would definitely look down on a dungeon like Desolate Land. But Qiao Yifan didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest. This was precisely the cautious habit he had developed over the years as a marginal player.

"Okay, take a look. We only have three chances." Ye Xiu said.

"Why?"

"Because, apart from you, the other characters in the team will probably reach level 31 after three runs." Ye Xiu said.

Qiao Yifan had already opened the dungeon leaderboard for the tenth server. The time of 24 minutes, 41 seconds, and 46 milliseconds for Desolate Land made the professional players stunned.

"The record is very high!" Qiao Yifan sent a message to Ye Xiu in surprise.

"Yes, it can be said to be the current limit." Ye Xiu said.

"If we replace it with stronger equipment, we should be able to improve it further."

"But for a new server, this kind of equipment is already very limited." Ye Xiu replied.

"Then what should we do?" Qiao Yifan asked.

"Three chances. As long as you can integrate into our team, there will be no problem breaking this record." Ye Xiu said.

"Three chances..." Qiao Yifan lacked confidence. Confidence was what he lacked the most.

"Don't worry! You'll be fine. I believe you can do it, so I specifically left only three chances for you." Ye Xiu said.

"Waiting for me?" Qiao Yifan was stunned.

"That's right. Without your phantomblade, it would be a bit troublesome to break this limit record." Ye Xiu said.

"But, I'm not very familiar with phantomblades yet." Qiao Yifan said in a panic.

"Three chances, at least it's enough for you to get familiar with this dungeon. Don't forget, you're also a professional player!" Ye Xiu said.

You are also a professional player.

A very simple sentence, a sentence that should have been like that. But it was a sentence that Qiao Yifan had never heard before. He was used to being transparent, used to the substitute seat where he could never play, used to watching enviously from afar when Gao Yingjie received personal guidance and extra training from the captain.

He was in a champion team of a powerhouse, and this had instead become his pressure. While other teammates took pride in this, he was always weighing whether he was worthy of this identity.

You are also a professional player.

This affirmation, this recognition, was so hard-won for Qiao Yifan. And coming from the mouth of a Great God like Ye Qiu, it felt even more weighty.

Looking at these words, Qiao Yifan's long-standing grievances surged up at once, and his eyes were wet at this moment. But he stubbornly replied with a message: "Yes, three times is enough!"
