I told you to plant peas, and you summon Mordekaiser?

The Ascension Competition is in full swing.

Chen Yang didn't miss a single one of the remaining fifteen matches.

The entrance ticket only costs 100 suns, but information about other teams is priceless.

After watching the competition for a day, he discovered that Sun Yue, an old acquaintance, had also qualified for the Ascension Tournament.

With the help of his talent, he actually reached the level of a third-tier zombie.

He is the only Tier 3 zombie besides Chen Yang.

Moreover, Chen Yang was certain that his physical attributes were at least higher than his own.

At that time, Sun Yue made a dazzling entrance in the arena driving an ice sled.

The ice sled was smashed, and he flipped over and jumped, with a baseball bat in his left hand, a metal door in his right, and an iron bucket on his head.

He charged recklessly, like a demon god.

In the eyes of the audience, he has been regarded as the strongest zombie player.

Meanwhile, during the competition, information about the participating plants will be displayed on the screen overhead.

Therefore, Zhao Changming and Belial, two players at the top of the combat power rankings, also chose the same tactics as Chen Yang.

They didn't use lanternflower and fire dragon grass, but won by relying on other plants from their teammates.

Subsequently, a top-ranked team also attempted to imitate the three, concealing their true strength.

They didn't use their strongest plants, and as a result, they were defeated by the fourth-to-last team, resulting in a complete upset.

After that, no team dared to hide their strength anymore.

One team in particular made him extremely wary.

Or rather, he is a player.

Because that team only had one player.

He was also an acquaintance of Chen Yang.

Isaac.

He was the player who almost caused Chen Yang to lose in the previous round of the competition.

According to Huangfu Qinghe's intelligence, this guy is from District 32.

District 32 has only one player left.

......

......

The first day of sixteen matches has concluded, and the list of those advancing has been determined.

Chen Yang's team is currently gathered at the World Tavern, discussing tomorrow's match.

"The opponent has been identified."

This time, Huangfu Qinghe's expression was unusually solemn.

"That's the guy... Isaac."

"How did he manage to participate alone? Wasn't there a limit of twenty people required to register?"

Some people raised doubts.

"There's a rumor... that he killed his teammate after registering..."

Chen Yang answered silently.

Upon discovering this strange individual, Chen Yang and Huangfu Qinghe immediately launched an investigation.

Chen Yang had his own guesses about why he massacred District 32.

That is, he has the talent to plunder the talents of others!

The prerequisite for plundering is killing!

Chen Yang made this conjecture for a very simple reason.

Before Isaac began his slaughter, many players in District 32 had already revealed their talents.

The most famous of these is a talent known as [Fatal Tempo].

The effect of this talent is that the plant's attack speed can be continuously increased.

That player from District 32 boasted about it in the world chat for a long time.

Huangfu Qinghe was certain that the player was not Isaac.

However, today, the plants on the Isaac field have also developed a deadly rhythm effect!

All the plants are incredibly ferocious, growing faster the more you attack them.

The probability of finding someone in the same area who has the same talent as a deceased player is extremely low.

Combining this with the massacre in District 32, Chen Yang deduced this unbelievable result.

"Most importantly, he did not exceed the plant limit and only used nine plants."

Huangfu Qinghe said solemnly.

"If you look at the power rankings, you'll understand why he was able to win."

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly pulled up the combat power rankings.

The top ten of the power rankings have been completely reshuffled. The first and second places remain unchanged, but Fire Dragon Grass has been squeezed out to fifth place.

Five of the plants belong to the same player, Isaac!

"Damn it! What's going on!"

"How come he occupies five of the top ten spots on the combat power ranking?"

"It wasn't like this before..."

Huangfu Qinghe said solemnly, "According to my understanding, his plants were ranked around three or four hundred yesterday."

"Isaac instantly boosted these plants into the top ten of the combat power rankings ten minutes before the match started."

"Those who can make it into the top ten of the combat power rankings must at least be fourth-tier plants..."

"Five fourth-tier plants? How much sunlight did he get?"

"This madman slaughtered players in an area. He must have an abundance of resources. He probably waited until the start of the competition to upgrade all his plants to level four."

"Damn, if he had drawn the zombie faction, he would have been doomed! Why did he get the human faction instead!"

The faction draw results for tomorrow are still zombies.

"It's alright. At least we didn't make a move today, so the other side doesn't know our strength yet."

Huangfu Qinghe comforted him.

"And he used every means at his disposal to fight the zombies."

A stack of documents was placed on the desktop.

"This is a summary of all the plants he used, based on his performance in today's match."

Everyone took a document and began to read it carefully.

Chen Yang had already read the document and remained silent, lost in thought.

"Besides those on the combat power ranking, he also placed four nuts with extremely high defensive power in the front row."

Huangfu Qinghe added.

"Qinghe, how many zombie coins do we have left?" Chen Yang asked.

Before the previous round of the competition, Huangfu Qinghe had exchanged his excess sunlight for zombie coins.

Zombie coins can be used to purchase items in the zombie shop in the arena.

"Nine zombie gold coins and eighteen zombie silver coins."

"Let's save these zombie coins for the next round."
