I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 183 A Mysterious Organization Appears, and a Bizarre Councilor

After making so many boastful claims, Ling Zhi couldn't even last three minutes against Jiang Chen. He really lost face this time.

Standing below the arena, Ling Zhi stared at Jiang Chen, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.

Why not let him finish speaking?

However, the cheers of the audience drowned out his voice: "He won! Jiang Chen won! Is this victory? Ling Zhi's attack was ineffective against Jiang Chen? How exactly did Jiang Chen break through Ling Zhi's attack? What exactly is Ling Zhi's skill? The Holy Light Mage, a mythical-level class, was actually defeated by Jiang Chen!"

People exclaimed in amazement, praising Jiang Chen's strength, but they still didn't know what Ling Zhi's skills were.

At the start of the match, Lingzhi's signature move suddenly failed to work, leaving everyone puzzled.

Ling Zhi stared at Jiang Chen for a moment, then calmly said, "You win this time. Once we both become advanced professionals, we'll have another match. Then I'll show you just how strong I am." With that, he turned and left.

Despite losing the race, Lexus's arrogance remained undiminished.

Jiang Chen felt that this person seemed to have some problems, as if he was immersed in his own world and unable to extricate himself.

After the match ended, the formation disappeared, and Lin Cai'er jumped onto the stage, happily hugged Jiang Chen, and shouted, "We won!"

Jiang Chen hugged her, gently patted her head, and said calmly, "I expected this long ago. The championship is of course ours."

Jiang Chen was full of confidence, and even after winning the championship, his mood only fluctuated slightly. His gaze fell on the prize in the air; the gleaming beginner skill scroll was extremely useful to him.

Far away at Shenlong University, Lin Zhenzi witnessed this scene and was furious: "You brat, let go of Cai'er!"

Hong Jishi laughed heartily: "Old man Lin, look carefully. It was your granddaughter who took the initiative to hug Jiang Chen. Letting go depends on her wishes."

Lin Zhenzi snorted: "You brat, if you dare to bully Cai'er, you'll be sorry sooner or later."

Hong Jishi slapped his thigh: "Don't worry, my Jiang Chen won't bully anyone."

Hong Jishi now calls Jiang Chen "my Jiang Chen" very affectionately.

Lin Zhenzi could only snort coldly, filled with resentment that his beloved granddaughter, whom he had raised with such care, had been snatched away.

In the preliminary rounds, the results for all three groups were quickly finalized. Shenlong University truly lived up to its reputation as the premier university of the Shenlong Empire.

Even on a global scale, it would be considered one of the best.

Aurora University won the championship in the 10-19 grade group, while Shenlong University won the championships in the 20 and 30 grade groups.

Jiang Chen's team won the championship in the 20 group.

The team representing Shenlong University won the Class of 30 championship.

Overall, the Divine Dragon Empire swept the championships in all three groups below level 40 in the Professional Tournament.

This also proves that the Divine Dragon Empire is indeed one of the most powerful empires in the world.

Those small countries and minor powers are simply no match for the Divine Dragon Empire.

Such things happen frequently in previous professional tournaments. On one occasion, the Divine Dragon Empire even swept all the championships in all categories, including the individual championship.

So the whole world is not surprised by this.

Next, the competition moved into the awards ceremony.

A powerful professional appeared in mid-air.

He exuded a terrifying aura; his mere natural aura was enough to make it hard for people to breathe.

"This person is at least level 80."

"What a terrifying aura! It's from a top-tier professional who's over level 80. You rarely see that kind of person."

"That's amazing. I wish I could reach that level."

"Stop thinking about it, just focus on getting to the second job advancement first."

Professionals below level 40 are called low-level professionals.

Those between levels 40 and 69 who have completed their second job advancement are called advanced professionals, or high-level professionals. This level of professionals represents the mainstream of all professionals.

Finally, there are those who are level 70 or above and have completed their third job advancement.

They are among the highest-ranking professionals, known as top professionals.

Top-tier professionals above level 70 are extremely rare; perhaps only one in a hundred professionals can reach that level.

Moreover, after level 70, the attribute increases significantly with each level up.

Therefore, they were further distinguished.

Those above level 70 and below level 79 are considered top-tier professionals.

Those above level 80 and below level 89 are considered top-tier professionals.

Once you reach level 90, you can be called a god-level professional.

God-level professionals are few and far between. Even a powerful empire like the Divine Dragon Empire doesn't have many.

Just like a pyramid, the higher up you go, the fewer people there are.

Such a figure is like a sharp knife, piercing the heart of an abyss demon, and holding up a sky for humanity.

People like Hung Kei-shek, Lin Chin-tzu, and Lee Hsueh-ju are all god-level professionals.

It is the pillar of stability and the cornerstone of the Divine Dragon Empire and even the entire human race.

Such a person doesn't appear easily.

Ordinary people can only see them in materials or textbooks.

The top professional in front of me, who is over level 80, is already considered a high-ranking figure.

When Ling Zhi looked at him, he had to suppress his arrogance. Even with his status as a mythical-level professional, he couldn't guarantee that he could surpass level 80.

It gets really difficult in the later stages of practice.

Many mythical-level professionals find it extremely difficult to progress after their third job advancement.

Every step forward comes at a huge cost.

It's already an immense honor to have a professional player above level 80 present awards to everyone.

His aura gradually subsided, and his dignified and profound gaze swept over the three champion teams one by one.

"You are all good!"

“The future is promising!”

Apart from Jiang Chen and Lin Cai'er, everyone else looked flattered.

How could he not be happy to receive praise from such a big shot? Jiang Chen remained calm and composed, having dealt with god-level professionals like Hong Jishi and Li Xueru many times before.

These days, even top professionals aren't all that great.

As for Lin Cai'er, her grandfather was a god-level professional.

I felt nothing at all.

"My name is Dou Sansi, and I come from the Divine Dragon Empire. You can also call me Elder Dou. If you need anything in the future, you can come to me. Perhaps I can help you."

Dou Sansi said softly, and with a wave of his hand, the three sets of champion prizes that were floating in the air flew down.

Jiang Chen felt something was slightly strange.

If you need something, go to him. Is this considered recruiting people?

Lin Cai'er whispered, "That sounds a bit strange."

She felt something was off, but couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Jiang Chen shared the same feeling, finding it somewhat strange.

Upon hearing the name Dou Sansi, some people immediately guessed his identity.

Dou Sansi, one of the twelve councilors of the Divine Dragon Empire, is a true high-ranking official of the empire and a powerful figure who can influence imperial decisions.

"No wonder he looked familiar; it turns out he's Councilor Dou Sansi."

"Councilor Dou Sansi is one of the twelve senators of the Empire, a truly important figure."

"Is he even more powerful than Hong Shen?"

“It’s different. Hong Shen is a god-level professional, a pillar of the empire.”

Dou Sansi is very strong, very capable, and wields great power.

However, compared to Hong Shen, he is still a little lacking.

Even so, it's still high and mighty enough.

Three championship prizes automatically flew to the three winning teams.

Dou Sansi personally handed the prizes to them. He gave Jiang Chen a box containing gold coins, a magical potion, and a shimmering skill scroll: "Young man, if you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me."

Before Jiang Chen could answer, Dou Sansi said to Lin Cai'er, "Give my regards to Elder Lin. I will visit him when I have time."

Lin Cai'er nodded: "Okay."

Zhang Yang asked in a low voice, "Cai'er, do you know Councilor Xu?"

Lin Cai'er shook her head: "I don't know him."

"then you?"

Lin Cai'er said, "Maybe he knows me."

Zhang Yang was about to ask more questions when Liu Cui tugged at him, signaling him not to.

They all knew that Lin Cai'er came from an extraordinary background, and that her elders knew Dou Sansi, so it wasn't impossible. After Dou Sansi distributed the ranks, he announced loudly.

"The team competition for level 40 has officially ended. The individual competition will be held here tomorrow. Please be prepared."

"I wish all the participants the best of luck."

After Dou Sansi finished speaking, he flew away.

In the blink of an eye, they had disappeared from everyone's sight.

Since the start of the professional tournament, the Divine Dragon Empire has never held any grand ceremonies.

Even the awards ceremony was so simple and casual.

His behavior is very much in line with the straightforward approach of professionals.

No need for beating around the bush, just be direct.

Only strength is real; everything else is weak.

Jiang Chen looked at the box and the potion scroll in front of him and reached out to take the box.

The moment my fingers touched the box, I felt something was off.

It felt as if a breath had entered my body.

I looked closely, but found nothing.

Thinking that his senses were wrong, he didn't take it seriously.

Jiang Chen put away the box containing 5000 million gold coins, which he would distribute to everyone later.

1000 million per person is not much to him, but it is a considerable sum to Fang Hongxiu and others.

Zhang Yang was already drooling, waiting for his share of the money.

Jiang Chen took the Hongshen potion in his hand again, and the detection spell activated immediately.

"Basic Miracle Potion: Permanently increases all attributes by 200; only effective the first time it is used."

All attributes are permanently increased by 200, although 200 attributes is only a drop in the ocean in the later stages of the game.

In the early stages, it's a very good bonus, comparable to a gold-tier item.

Basic magic potions are extremely rare and expensive; you can't buy them even if you have the money.

Someone once offered 1 million gold coins to buy it, but they couldn't get it.

The only downside is that it can only be used once.

If you want to continue to permanently increase your attributes, you'll have to use intermediate and advanced magical potions in the future.

Jiang Chen tossed the medicine to Lin Cai'er: "Take it."

At the same time, he put away the flashing skill scroll.

In the courtyard of Hongshen.

When Jiang Chen touched the box, Li Xueru said, "The fish has taken the bait."

Hong Jishi raised an eyebrow: "Who is it?"

Li Xueru said in a deep voice, "Dou Sansi, although I'm not sure yet, it's probably close to the truth. I'll take another look and I'll be able to confirm it soon."

Lin Zhenzi whispered, "It's him! Look closely, don't get it wrong."

"If it really is him, then this is a big problem. I never thought that the people of the Demon Worship Society could infiltrate to this extent."

Hong Jishi also had a solemn expression, his face full of seriousness.
