Chapter 1: Faith is Invincible

  It has to be said that the place where Wu Chang is located is indeed a good map, and this piece can also be called a hidden map of the novice village. Wu Chang levels up very quickly here, and soon he was already level three. However, now Zidian only gives Wu Chang 25 experience points, after all, Zidian only has two levels, and Wu Chang is already level three.

  Of course, this did not hinder Wu Chang's enthusiasm. Here, he was the only one practicing his level, and compared to outside where people were fighting for monsters, it was still a good deal, especially since the experience of the purple marten was more than some fourth or fifth-level monsters, which made Wu Chang very happy.

  At this moment, Wu Chang's backpack also had more than twenty pieces of purple fox fur, which could be sold for a good price, with each piece worth over a hundred copper coins.

  Soon, Wu Chang reached level 4. The previous levels were still relatively easy to upgrade, after all, this was the novice village. However, after reaching level 10, the player's leveling up would become increasingly slower.

  "It's time to go back!" Wu Chang said, anyway, there was a village behind him, and it was convenient for Wu Chang to go back. Moreover, the experience here was getting less and less. Besides, after selling these sable skins, Wu Chang also had enough gold coins to buy a skill book.

  Back in the village, at this moment, there were a large number of players in the village, most of whom were running out of the village, and Wu Chang, who was running into the village, was very rare.

  Arriving at the tailor's shop, Wu Chang directly sold these sable skins for 150 copper coins. With thirty pieces of sable skin, he obtained a handsome sum, which was quite rare in this era, especially since the district had only been open for less than an hour.

  Wu Chang directly walked towards the bookstore. In Novice Village, there was a special store that sold skills, but nowadays players didn't have much money to buy skills.

  Wu Chang directly walked into the bookstore and opened the purchase interface. Suddenly, all assassin skills below level 20 were displayed.

  "Dash: Instantly dash to the target's front and deal massive damage! Required profession: Assassin, required level: 1"

  "Speed Boost: After releasing a skill, the player's speed will increase by 30% for 15 seconds. Required profession: Assassin, required level: 7"

  The "Raid" skill requires fifty copper coins, while the "Extreme Speed" skill requires ninety copper coins. After buying both skill books, Wu Chang only had ten copper coins left in his backpack, just enough to buy a small bottle of healing potion.

  He directly learned the charge skill, as for speed, Wu Chang's current level isn't enough, but with the charge skill, Wu Chang can practice up to level 10 without having to return.

  At this moment, the number of players outside the village is increasing, and the refresh rate of monsters is also very fast. Wu Chang simply didn't bother to look at these, quickly passing by these players, heading towards the 6th or 7th level area. This low-level place was obviously not suitable for him.

  There are still many players in the 6th and 7th levels, but they all team up. These players' strength is much higher than that of new village players. Most of them are level 3 or 4 players, and at this level, they can PK with level 6 monsters.

  Wu Chang swept a glance and his gaze suddenly froze at a nearby location, where there was a player team from Tianyue Studio.

  The studio's players are easily recognizable in the game, and there is a function called "marking". Tianyue Studio has its own mark, and every member who joins the studio will have a studio emblem on their shoulder. This emblem has no attributes, it's just a proof.

  "Xu Li!" Wu Chang's gaze directly locked onto one of the assassin players, who was Xu Li. This was someone Wu Chang wouldn't mistake for anyone else. After all, this guy had also been a rival in love before.

  "There's Ye Yun!" Wu Chang swept a glance over the others and soon discovered a female cultivator behind a warrior, who was Ye Yun.

  "Whatever, I'm not a Tianyue person anymore!" Wu Chang shook his head and said out loud. His change wasn't that big, maybe Ye Yun would still recognize him, but he was no longer a Tianyue person and didn't take orders from Ye Yun.

  "Brother, team up? Still one short!" Seeing Wu Chang come over, many teams looked at Wu Chang. Wu Chang's level was fourth grade, and at this time, the technology that could be upgraded to fourth grade was definitely good, so they extended an invitation to Wu Chang.

  "No way!" Wu Chang heard this and shook his head, then immediately looked at a monster, a level 6 goblin, a small monster wielding an axe. The attack power of this monster was not small, after all, they were wearing first-class cloth armor, which was equivalent to having no armor at all!

  Passing by the warrior, Wu Chang directly attacked a goblin, and in an instant, he made a sudden thrust to the front of the goblin, stabbing his dagger straight into the goblin's throat, dealing 25 points of damage.

  "Who is this guy, actually soloing a Kobold Lord!" Wu Chang's actions instantly attracted the attention of the leveling players. This guy was actually soloing a Kobold Lord, and to make matters worse, he was an Assassin.

  The assassin's output is high, but the assassin's defense and blood volume are relatively low. If he is hit by a goblin, it only takes two hits to hang up. Who dares to do this now?

  "How reckless!" In the distance, Xu Li sneered, as Tian Yue's top assassin, Xu Li's strength was still pretty good. However, even so, it took the combined efforts of Tian Yue's five players to kill the goblin, and this guy dared to single-handedly challenge the goblin - wasn't he asking for death?

  "He just used a skill!" Ye Yun's eyes lit up slightly, Wu Chang's sudden burst of assault skills was clearly visible to Ye Yun, and at this moment, surprisingly, there were players who had learned the assault.

  "Having skills is useless, the early assassins were too fragile!" Upon hearing this, Xu Li spoke up, even if the skills are strong, but being hit twice and dying still makes them useless.

  At this moment, Wu Chang smiled coldly and said loudly, "Xu Li's words did not cover up, even Wu Chang himself heard clearly."

  "An assassin is a profession that roams, and the quality an assassin needs is to face opponents who are one or even two times stronger than themselves. If you don't have the heart to attack the strong, then no matter how strong the assassin is, they're nothing but trash, without the heart of an assassin, what's the point of being one?" Wu Chang's voice was low and calm, clearly a counterattack against Xu Li.

  "What's the use of being eloquent!" Upon hearing this, Xu Li's face suddenly sank, and he said coldly.

  "Idiot!" Wu Chang shook his head and dodged the goblin's attack with a swift movement. Immediately, the dagger in his hand spun around and stabbed directly at the goblin's neck.

  "What a wonderful footwork and attacking skill!" Watching Wu Chang's evasive action against the goblin, Ye Yun's eyes lit up instantly. The speed was not particularly fast, but it had a sense of beauty to it.

  "Roar!" A fierce and violent roar suddenly erupted, the goblin let out a loud howl, directly raising the axe in its hand to heavily strike towards Wu Chang. However, facing the powerful goblin, Wu Chang didn't have even a hint of fear. The goblin's attack was very single-minded, although it wasn't slow, but Wu Chang was very clear that this kind of attacking method could be avoided by at least over a hundred assassins in the online gaming world, and some might even counterattack.

  At this moment, many people are watching Wu Chang perform. They are also top-notch players in the online gaming world and have a discerning eye for skill. Wu Chang's movements are elegant and unhurried, yet he is able to dodge the goblin's attacks one after another.

  "Damn it, I've met a master!" The warrior player who had previously invited Wu Chang to play opened his mouth and said, Wu Chang's movements were obviously not showing off, but really had this strength.

  "This assassin's strength is at least enough to rank in the top 100 of the professional rankings!" Ye Yun revealed a hint of surprise. When this assassin had mocked Xu Li earlier, Ye Yun also felt uncomfortable, after all, Xu Li was their Tianyue's chief assassin. The other party's blatant sarcasm seemed to be saying that even Tianyue was trash. However, having truly witnessed the methods of the person in front of him, Ye Yun suddenly understood. In the eyes of his opponent, perhaps Xu Li really was trash. His footwork skills were extremely high, and this kind of footwork even gave Ye Yun a faintly familiar feeling, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

  Especially the other person's face, Ye Yun felt that he had seen it somewhere before, but for a moment, he couldn't remember.

  "Roar!" With a mournful howl, the goblin's body fell directly to the ground. At the same time, Wu Chang's level rose by one rank.

  "A level 6 monster, and the experience is pretty good!" Wu Chang laughed out loud. A level 4 challenging a level 6, this experience bonus isn't bad at all.

  At this moment, everyone was shocked and looked at Wu Chang, thinking about the images of those assassins on the professional player rankings, wondering which one he was.

  "This is a real assassin, the kind that only hides behind people's backs is not a decent assassin!" Wu Chang picked up the seven copper coins that Goblin exploded on the ground and turned back to look at Xulai with a smile.

  "What did you say?" Upon hearing this, Xu Li's face suddenly sank. The other party was clearly mocking him. At this moment, Xu Li was somewhat angry. Even if you are a high-ranking professional, you can't be so arrogant, especially since he is still the chief assassin of Tianyue Studio.

  "Your Excellency! Aren't you being a bit too rash?" Ye Yun said, looking at Wu Chang. At this moment, Ye Yun finally got a clear look at Wu Chang's face, and the familiar feeling became even stronger. However, the fact that he humiliated Xu Li like this made Ye Yun somewhat puzzled - did he have a grudge against Xu Li?

  "I won't offend anyone if no one offends me! Who has a stinky mouth knows it themselves, don't pretend to be a big shot if you're not capable!" Upon hearing Ye Yun's words, Wu Chang rubbed his nose and smiled, then coldly glanced at Xu Li and said: "Don't think you're the foundation of everything, you're not even fart!"

  "Looking for death!" Upon hearing this, Xu Li was furious and directly rushed towards Wu Chang. At this moment, Xu Li's anger had reached its peak.

  "Xu Li! Stop!" Ye Yun directly stopped Xu Li. The opponent's strength was very strong, and if they really fought, the five of them might not be able to defeat him.

  "Nothing's wrong? Then I'm off!" Wu Chang smiled faintly as he looked at Xu Li, his voice full of mockery. Immediately, under the gaze of everyone present, he headed straight for the Seventh-Level Monster Zone.

  "Remember, I'm Wu Chang, seeking revenge, welcome anytime!" Far away, Wu Chang's voice echoed, also making Xu Li and Ye Yun's eyes slightly shrink, could it be him?
