293: The big hedgehog is a bit arrogant.

Seeing that their own camp of over two hundred people was being suppressed by the opponent's hundred-plus, the leader of the Yellow Camp immediately ordered fifty people to continue holding the boss, while he led another fifty straight toward the fighting parties.

Arriving at the front lines, Zhu Rong finally got a clear look at the opposing leader—it was none other than Chen Feng of the Guardian Guild.

Chen Feng’s trajectory after arriving at the Asura Field was similar to Zhu Rong’s, except he was luckier and managed to gather a team twice the size of Zhu Rong's.

“Heh heh!” Chen Feng also clearly saw his opponent now, and sneered, “I wondered who it was, turns out it’s Zhu Rong, second place in the Guild Tournament!”

“Chen Feng!” Zhu Rong’s heart sank upon recognizing the arrival.

Not only was the opponent among the top eight in the Guild Challenge Tournament, but he also held a top eight position in the Individual Challenge Tournament. His skill realm would definitely not be weak. They had over a hundred people, but the opponent, counting the fifty who just joined, had nearly three hundred! The numerical disparity was too great; fighting head-on offered no chance of victory.

“Retreat!” Zhu Rong made a swift decision and gave the order again.

However, upon seeing Zhu Rong retreat, a cold, sinister smile curled Chen Feng’s lips.

Whether it was the Ladder Individual Challenge Tournament or the Guild Challenge Tournament, he had lost both matches too humiliatingly. Now, seeing Zhu Rong, the second-place winner of the Guild Tournament, he felt an urge to thoroughly trample him.

“Attack!”

Following Chen Feng’s command, three hundred people charged straight toward Zhu Rong’s hundred-plus, launching skills before they even arrived.

Seeing the opponent commit their entire force, Zhu Rong decisively ordered a retreat, fighting as they fell back. Both sides suffered heavy casualties, but overall, the Red Camp sustained far greater losses.

Just amidst this chaos, two figures appeared silently above the battlefield like ghosts.

Huang Chen held Li Ruo, his gaze sweeping over the chaotic crowd below and the massive Black Tortoise that was being laboriously held back by fifty-plus people. The Black Tortoise’s health bar was clearly visible, showing about half remaining.

“It’s actually the two of them!” Huang Chen’s lips curved slightly. Powerful Children of Destiny represented large amounts of points, but for now, he should deal with the half-health boss first.

“Li Ruo, just attack from the periphery. I’ll go clear out those fifty people first.” Huang Chen instructed as he brought Li Ruo down to land near the Black Tortoise.

The moment he landed, he activated Golden Bell Shield and Soul Severing Stab and charged directly toward the Black Tortoise.

After more than an hour of fighting, he had discovered that with the Golden Bell Shield active, the skills of these ordinary Trial Takers barely scratched him. If their skill realm hadn't reached Minor Accomplishment, they couldn't break his 300,000 Absolute Defense. And Trial Takers whose skill realm had reached Minor Accomplishment were extremely rare if they could deal over a thousand damage to him.

The fifty Yellow Camp Trial Takers surrounding the Black Tortoise were fully focused on tanking and dealing damage.

Suddenly, a figure rushed into the crowd... “Blood Battle in Eight Directions!”

“Returning Wind Falling Goose!”

“Yang Guan Three Stacks!”

Huang Chen took out the Trial Takers one by one, and waves of white teleportation light immediately flared up around the Black Tortoise.

However, before anyone else could react, Karma Fire Lava rained down from the sky, smashing into the crowd, causing more white lights to flare up.

Aided by the Soul Devouring Bees, Li Ruo’s Karma Fire Burns the City was close to the Major Accomplishment realm, dealing fiercer damage output in the Asura Field than Zhu Rong.

“Watch out! Enemy attack!”

“Who?! Who did that?!”

“Such high damage!”

The people attacking the Black Tortoise instantly erupted into chaos! This sudden massive damage caught them off guard, and they frantically gave up attacking the Black Tortoise and fled toward the periphery.

At this moment, Chen Feng, who was attacking Zhu Rong, also noticed the chaos around the boss. He immediately ordered his three hundred people to abandon the pursuit of Zhu Rong, turn around, and charge toward Huang Chen.

“How dare you steal my boss, Chen Feng’s boss! Die!” Chen Feng hadn't arrived yet, but his furious roar had already reached Huang Chen’s ears.

Huang Chen rubbed his nose, looked at the charging Chen Feng, and smiled, “Big Hedgehog, you’re getting cocky!”

“Hmph!” Chen Feng snorted coldly. “Two people dare to come and steal my prize... Huh... this woman is hot, baby face and all. Save her for me later, I’m going to pop her big thunder.”

“Ch-Chief Chen, that seems to be Huang Chen.” A young man from the God Huang Camp said somewhat awkwardly. During the Ladder Challenge Tournament, he was a die-hard fan of Huang Chen, and seeing him in person now naturally made him excited.

“I don’t care if it’s Huang or not... Chen or not... Holy crap! Huang Chen? God Huang?” Chen Feng finally reacted, yelling loudly and immediately retreating. Zhu Rong, who had initially wanted to follow up and play the oriole, also stopped immediately upon hearing Chen Feng’s shout.

God Huang! The god of Star Abyss this generation. Even when cheats were disabled and attributes were capped at 6,000 points, he still swept through everything, leading the points by a huge margin.

The field fell silent for a moment, everyone staring at Huang Chen and Li Ruo with astonished expressions.

This was the living God Huang, not a livestream separated by a hundred thousand miles.

Chen Feng looked bitter now. On the surface, he had the advantage of numbers. But Huang Chen’s name had practically become a forbidden existence in Star Abyss; even in the Asura Field, he lacked the courage to fight.

Huang Chen was originally smiling, but upon hearing Chen Feng’s words, his entire face instantly darkened.

“Big Hedgehog... how many points do you have now?” he asked directly.

“3,000!” Chen Feng blurted out subconsciously, then his expression immediately grew even uglier. “H-Huang Chen, what do you want?”

“3,000, huh?” Huang Chen didn't answer Chen Feng, but merely muttered to himself, “Soon it’ll only be two thousand something.”

After speaking, Huang Chen immediately cast Soul Severing Stab and charged toward Chen Feng.

“Damn it! Don’t just stand there! Attack! Kill him!” Chen Feng yelled, but his own body was already sprinting madly in the opposite direction.

The people of the Yellow Camp hesitated for a moment, but instead of attacking, they scattered instantly.

They knew the opponent had 20,000 points, and videos of Huang Chen stealing bosses elsewhere had already spread among various ethnic groups.

Their skill realms hadn't even reached Minor Accomplishment; whether they could break Huang Chen’s defense was questionable. Sending them forward wasn't just sending them to their deaths?

If it weren't easier to earn points by following Chen Feng, who would call him Boss?

As the saying goes, two legs can’t outrun four legs, and four legs can’t outrun something that flies.

Soon, Huang Chen easily dealt with Chen Feng. He and Li Ruo each gained 150 points—not bad, equivalent to the score of one monster.

However, the people of the Yellow Camp had scattered during the delay, making it difficult to chase and kill them.

Seeing that the Yellow Camp had all fled, Huang Chen turned his attention to Zhu Rong.

Zhu Rong did not flee. Instead, he slowly walked up to Huang Chen alone, cupped his hands, and said, “God Huang, we meet again.”

“To meet in such a large Asura Field, we must be quite fated.” Huang Chen smiled, raising an eyebrow. “Tell me, aren’t you afraid I’ll attack you by just walking over like that?”

“Heh heh!” Zhu Rong shook his head. “It’s only three hundred points, a loss I can afford. If you attack, consider it the price of admission for meeting a star.”

“Haha!” Huang Chen was immediately amused by Zhu Rong’s words.

Zhu Rong left a good impression on him: gentle, refined, and trustworthy. He was someone worth befriending.

“Since I’ve set my sights on this boss, I wonder if Brother Zhu can yield it to me?” Huang Chen asked.

“It’s not a matter of yielding or not yielding; the BOSS isn't mine. Isn't the rule of the Asura Field for Trial Takers to compete? If you are strong, then kill it. I only came over because I wanted to add you as a friend. Do I have that honor?” Zhu Rong said directly.

“Brother Zhu, what are you saying...” Huang Chen said, and immediately sent Zhu Rong a friend request.

After Zhu Rong accepted, he led the remaining hundred-plus people away.

Watching the hundred-plus people stand far away, Huang Chen nodded and thought to himself, “This person is reliable.”

He then turned his attention to the Black Tortoise not far away. In just this short delay, the Black Tortoise’s health had recovered to about 70%.
