[Ding!… You ranked 1st in the contribution rank during the Dragon’s Revenge mission. Choose a reward.]
Looking at everyone’s confused face, Xie Feng supposed that no one else but him could see the eligible rewards. Xie Feng came to the conclusion that, perhaps, only after the highest rank chose a reward would the others be able to see the rest of the items. In fact, this was much better since the rest of the players would not know what the others chose and would avoid a lot of problems.
Looking at the available rewards, Xie Feng was pleasantly surprised to discover that they were all great rewards. Even the ten thousand gold coins, which was clearly the worst reward, was a large amount of money at present; even after risking his life so much, fighting and killing so many high-level and high-ranking bosses, Xie Feng still did not even have half of that gold.
Although Xie Feng did not know 100% whether the rewards were ordered from the most valuable to the least valuable, it seemed to be so. Therefore, after hesitating for more than a full minute, he finally chose the first option.
[Ding!… You have acquired ‘????’]
The second option was a title and Xie Feng was not too interested since he currently held three titles and when he delivered the poison antidote to King Hu Yi, Xie Feng would receive one more title. Therefore, although it was an attractive option, he discarded it.
The third option was a pet egg but Xie Feng was definitely not interested in that. Currently, unless destiny would have it, Ling Long would continue to be his only traveling partner.
As for gold or silver grade equipment, Xie Feng directly ruled out those options. If he wanted equipment, he could simply try to find some bosses and after killing them he would obtain them for himself. There was no need to waste such a reward.
The main reason Xie Feng chose the first option was because earlier, after finishing the mission in which he miraculously obtained the Pearl of Light, he had already acquired an equal reward. His Creator of Myths title also possessed a similar characteristic. Although he did not know what those question marks meant, it was probably something important to him; therefore, after careful thought, Xie Feng chose option number one.
As Xie Feng looked at Yao Mei, it seemed that she was the person in second place. However, what happened next surprised everyone.
Swoosh!
After a few seconds, it seemed that Yao Mei had already chosen her reward, and immediately after that, she simply disconnected, disappearing in front of everyone in a flash of white light without saying a single word.
Xie Feng frowned slightly and looked at Yao Zenyu for a moment. After thinking for a second, he shook his head internally and did not say anything. Since several minutes ago, he had noticed that the little princess of the Yao Family seemed somewhat strange, however, since her big brother did not look surprised by her spontaneous disappearance, Xie Feng stopped thinking about it. After all, he didn’t know her too well to draw conclusions and since Yao Zenyu acted casual, she was probably always like that with everyone.
Anyway, that was none of Xie Feng’s business.
“I guess everyone picked their rewards.”
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound and saw Yang Tian walking towards them. The defensive battle at the south gate had also ended so he had rushed to the north area after learning that everyone was meeting there.
“What a way to surprise everyone.” Yao Zenyu smiled slightly and commented.
Yang Tian rolled his eyes. “For goodness sake… Do you think it’s all about attention? I just did what I was supposed to do.”
“Heh…” Yao Zenyu scoffed lightly and said no more.
Xie Feng was also looking at Yang Tian with an interesting look.
In fact, while everyone was in the north area, the players who rushed to the south gate were shocked to discover when they arrived that Yang Tian was casually sitting on a rock while over five thousand levels twenty monsters were furiously attacking a giant yellow barrier. However, no matter how much the monsters attacked, the barrier did not break.
Although many monsters were attacking the walls, the weakest area, the area around the gate, was being protected by the barrier so even if the monsters attacked all day and all night they still wouldn’t be able to breach the walls of Eminentis City.
“Well, I guess that’s all for now.” One Man Army extended his hand forward with a closed fist and smiled. “Good job, everyone. It really was a pleasure to work alongside powerful people like yourselves…. On the other hand, I hope I don’t have to cross paths on the battlefield with any of you as an enemy.”
They all looked at each other for a moment and finally also extended their hand forward in greeting and respect.
[Ding!… Your party has been successfully dispersed. You are not currently in a party with any players.]
It was then that Xie Feng once again stayed as a solo player.

After finishing the first part of the three-part event with a big victory, everyone split up and started to do their own stuff. The big guilds had to start preparing to compensate their members for the loss of level, return the lost pieces of equipment, etc. On the other hand, although there were losses, the gains were undoubtedly superior and the guilds that participated in the city defense mission were undoubtedly the most rewarded thanks to the world announcement. Of course, it could not be forgotten that now, as long as they had the necessary money and met certain requirements, the guilds could finally begin to show their true power.
Xie Feng walked through the streets of the city in a low-grade and not at all eye-catching equipment. Under the orange tiger mask, a casual smile adorned his face.
[Server’s Honor Ranking –
First Place: Chinese Server / Honor Points: 95
Honor Details: On February 14, 2030, players Shiva, Yao Zenyu, Yang Tian, Red Snow, Mu Wuying, Feng Yao, Rainbow Butterfly, Nangong Lei, One Man Army, Yao Mei, and Kali completed the alliance system mission ‘Dragon’s Revenge’. The Chinese server has become the first server in the world to open the alliance system.]
Apparently, the other servers in the world were still doing their respective missions. Although Xie Feng did not know whether all the countries in the world would start the alliance system or not, he guessed that the difficulty would be at least similar.
The name of the Chinese server hung proudly at the top of the honors list. There was no second, no third, no fourth place; there was only China. Although this was probably a temporary thing, it was of great satisfaction for everyone to see their country at the absolute top after so much effort to achieve such a goal.
Even the Chinese players were surprised when they opened the hall of fame for the first time and saw China hanging at the top…. This was something that filled everyone with pride.
In addition, the names of the people who formed the strongest assault and defense group hung there and were seen by everyone. From today, no person in the world would forget their names. Even when years had passed, their names would be recorded in the history books of the Samsara world.
Although satisfied, Xie Feng was not surprised. To him, the result obtained was only normal and something that should happen. It was not because of his arrogance, it was just that Xie Feng knew his own ability very well and knew very well what he was capable of. Being sincere and not underestimating oneself did not mean being arrogant, it was just the reality; and Xie Feng was simply being sincere.
As he walked through the streets of the city, Xie Feng felt somewhat happy to see the smiles on the faces of the people of Eminentis City. He along with the rest managed to protect those smiles…. To be honest, although Xie Feng did not consider himself a hero or a savior, it was not a bad feeling….
* * *
Xie Feng paused for a moment outside the gates of the King’s Palace for the second time today. An indifferent smile adorned his face but his eyes shone with a hint of excitement….
“I wonder what rewards I’ll get…” he muttered to himself as he slowly approached.
