In his previous life, Zhang Yue became renowned as the "Asura", the strongest in the Dragon Nation of the Otherworld, ultimately defeating the Tier 9 Beast Tide—not due to luck, but because of his strength.

Before the Otherworld descended, Zhang Yue was a member of the Dragon Nation's special forces unit "War Dragon." With his extraordinary physique and keen perception, he was a top-tier T0 expert from the First World until the Seventieth World.

Thus, during the conquest of the Otherworld, Zhang Yue was always among the first to enter each new world, gaining absolute priority in exploration.

When Zhang Yue first stepped into the Sixth World as Asura, he unearthed an SSS-level reward but narrowly missed it due to insufficient strength.

In this life, Zhang Yue is absolutely confident that he can make up for past regrets and claim that SSS-level reward.

To access this SSS-level reward, every step from the moment he enters the Sixth World must be flawless.

So, after restocking at the pharmacy, the five of them left the City of Ice & snow.

Outside the city, a lifeless snowy field stretched endlessly, with white snow covering the ground.

Amid the snowy plains stood several snowmen.

These were the creations of the human grand mage, Frost Pharaoh Norn.

To fend off the powerful Netherworld Legion under Death God Kira, Norn used his life force to summon frost magic, creating the Ice and Snow City while sealing the entire Sixth World in ice.

However, unlike the frozen corpses within the city, the Netherworld Legion outside was only sealed in ice.

The moment a living being entered their vicinity, they could sense its body heat, melting the frost that encased them, and regain life.

Looking at the scattered "snowmen" around, tour guide Ouyang Linger explained, "According to the guide, the drop rate of Resurrection Stone Shards from these scattered Netherworld Warriors is painfully low. We'd better find a map spot to farm them."

At that moment, Lin Tian checked the map and said, "Let's head to the Netherworld Hall. Level 41 monsters are easier to kill, making it easier to farm shards."

The five of them followed the map's directions and, after a ten-minute journey, arrived at the LV41 Netherworld Hall in the eastern part of the Ice and Snow City.

Looking ahead, they saw a magnificent hall standing in the snow, where a group of adventurers was already teaming up to hunt the Netherworld Warriors inside.

Seeing this scene, Wu Haotian exclaimed in surprise, "Are you kidding me? Weren't we supposed to be the first group to enter the Sixth World? How did someone get here before us?"

"Silly boy, they're veteran adventurers from previous seasons." Ouyang Linger explained. "Every season, some adventurers deliberately stay in the Sixth World to farm high-level rewards. Some stay for a few seasons, others for dozens."

Wu Haotian was stunned. "Staying in the Sixth World for dozens of seasons? Are they crazy?"

Lin Tian observed the adventurers in the Netherworld Hall, all maxed out at Level 45, the highest level in the Sixth World. Adjusting his glasses with his index finger, he said, "If an S-level or higher reward drops in the Sixth World, its value could secure a lifetime of wealth for an adventurer."

"For those dreaming of overnight riches, this is their best shortcut."

Ouyang Linger shrugged, "Too bad some people spend their entire lives farming and never see an S-level reward. The Sixth World's rewards are pure luck."

Amidst their conversation, the five formed a team and stepped into the Netherworld Hall.

Meanwhile, the group of veteran Level 45 adventurers noticed Zhang Yue and his party.

Seeing that Lin Tian and his team were only around Level 35, the adventurers instantly understood. "Oh, look, it's the newbies from this season."

"Boys, time to show off."

A few old-timers, seemingly in their thirties, whistled at Ning Tiantian and Ouyang Linger.

"Hey, beauties, want us pros to carry you? We've been in the Sixth World for over a dozen seasons—way stronger than those useless guys you're with."

By "useless," they meant Zhang Yue and his male teammates.

Ouyang Linger put her hands on her hips and retorted confidently, "So what if your level is higher? You might not be stronger than us."

The veteran adventurers laughed uproariously. "Where's that confidence coming from? A bunch of newly promoted Level 35 adventurers thinking they're better than us?"

"If they're stronger than us, I'll livestream eating dirt."

"Looks like Brother Qiang is bluffing again."

"Hahaha!"

Ignoring the veterans' mocking remarks, Zhang Yue turned his gaze forward, where the frost on a "snowman" melted.

A Netherworld Warrior, clad in full black armor, wielding a battle blade, and emitting a chilling gleam from its eyes, emerged from the ice.

The Level 41 Netherworld Warrior charged toward Zhang Yue and his team with its blade raised.

Zhang Yue lifted the Demon's Eye of Death and quickly cast spells.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of S-level skill combos, dealing 4000-5000 damage each, instantly reduced the Netherworld Warrior's HP by half.

Next, the Apocalypse Black Dragon unleashed Doomsday Dragon Flame and Doomsday Dragon Breath, dealing over 9000 damage twice, severely wounding the Netherworld Warrior.

Finally, the Dark Skeleton King used Charge Forward and Close-range Super Slash, easily killing the Netherworld Warrior.

The battle ended in three seconds.

The veteran adventurers, who were mocking Zhang Yue's team just moments ago, were now utterly stunned.

"Damn! They're that strong? Are these really the newly promoted adventurers from this season?"

"Is that black dragon mythical-tier? Its damage is higher than mine."

While the veterans were still in shock, Ouyang Linger taunted, "Hey, Brother Qiang, don't forget to livestream eating dirt. Let me know which platform so I can send you gifts."

The veterans said nothing more, dark expressions on their faces as they resumed farming monsters.

In team mode, killing a Netherworld Warrior earned Zhang Yue 70,490 experience points.

The first Netherworld Warrior didn't drop any Resurrection Stone Shards.

The group locked onto their next target and continued farming.

Given their overwhelming strength, the Level 41 Netherworld Warriors were like tofu blocks in Zhang Yue's hands.

However, Zhang Yue felt increasingly dissatisfied. "Our damage is too low. We need to level up."

"Is that even human talk?" Wu Haotian couldn't help but protest. "So pretentious!"

Indeed, being outshone by the Apocalypse Black Dragon was somewhat humiliating.

If not for the infinite loyalty of necromancer pets, Zhang Yue might have worried about the Black Dragon rebelling someday...

Meanwhile, Zhang Yue's greatest anticipation lay in the Death's Eye.

He speculated that when Demon Blood Purity reached 100%, the unique hidden event triggered by the Eye of Death would be related to the Reaper's Set.

If his guess was right, he might acquire a five-star quality Reaper's Set.

That would be Zhang Yue's chance to surpass the Apocalypse Black Dragon in power...

Aside from that, enhancing his strength was also to face the Professional Tournament in a better state.

Back then, the mysterious person who learned Zhang Yue's [Asura] identity through the envelope said they would meet Zhang Yue at the National Challenge Tournament.

Zhang Yue couldn't help but wonder who that person really was.
