When Lin Huang was practicing his sword skills in the room at past five in the afternoon, someone knocked on his door all of a sudden. He saw Yi Yeyu and Yi Zheng standing at the door when he opened it.

Yi Yeyu was stunned when she saw him in his disguise. “Did we get the wrong room?” She peered up at the room number and looked suspiciously at Lin Huang.

“It’s the correct one. Let’s go in.” Yi Zheng did not bother explaining.

“It’s me. I’m just disguising as another ident.i.ty of mine,” Lin Huang had just recalled that he was under disguise. He changed back into his original look immediately.

“I thought I got the wrong room.” Yi Yeyu only walked in then.

Yi Zheng followed her but trained his eyes on Lin Huang. He only spoke hesitantly a moment later, “Has your combat strength elevated to immortal-level rank-4?”

Yi Yeyu only realized that about him. Then, she looked at Lin Huang too.

Lin Huang nodded while smiling. “Yes, I’ve elevated to immortal-level rank-4 now.”

“The speed of your combat strength elevation insane.” Yi Zheng had no idea what else to say now. “It was the end of August when we last met. It’s only been half a year and you’ve already elevated from immortal-level rank-1 to immortal-level rank-4. That’s a three-rank leap. You elevated a rank every two months on average.”

“Have you elevated to immortal-level rank-2 now?” Lin Huang could tell that Yi Zheng was on immortal-level rank-2.

“I spent half a year and finally got the opportunity to go into the ruins. I’ve just elevated a few days ago.” Yi Zheng thought that his elevation speed could not compare with Lin Huang’s at all.

“No wonder I couldn’t contact you before the New Year. Was it because you were in the ruins?” Lin Huang raised his brow.

“Yes, I’ve just come out a few days ago,” Yi Zheng confirmed, “I heard that Xiao Yu was coming to Wanbao City, so I came for her.”

“Which ruins did you go to?” Lin Huang asked rather curiously.

“It’s a grade-3 ruin shared with the Combat G.o.d Alliance and a few other genius organizations. The highest combat strength for monsters was just immortal-level rank-9. Those who partic.i.p.ated in the exploration were all low-level and mid-level immortal-levels,” Yi Zheng explained.

“The Combat G.o.d Alliance?” Lin Huang thought hard and realized that he had never heard of such a genius organization.

“It’s normal not to have heard of it. The Combat G.o.d Alliance is Division 3’s local organization,” Yi Zheng revealed while smiling.

He only realized what a formidable organization the Heaven Alliance which Lin Huang was talking about after joining the Genius Union. He had also asked around about the entry requirements to get into the Heaven Alliance. In the end, he was too embarra.s.sed to join the Heaven Alliance using Lin Huang’s name. If his abilities were not so mediocre, perhaps he might choose to pull some strings and catch up to other members slowly. However, the issue was that the entry requirements for the Heaven Alliance were too high. He figured he would not pa.s.s any of the tests after looking at the contents of the tests, so he gave up immediately. He selected a few local Division 3 organizations instead and eventually got accepted into the Combat G.o.d Alliance after partic.i.p.ating in the exam.

It was Chan Dou who had invited Lin Huang to join the Heaven Alliance. He had no idea what the exam entailed. Naturally, he had no idea what the exact reason why Yi Zheng gave up on joining the Heaven Alliance was. However, since he chose to join that organization, Lin Huang did not ask any further.

“It’s great to join Division 3’s local organization. There are only a few Heaven Alliance members in Division 3, so there aren’t many resources.” Although Lin Huang said the truth, he was comparing resources with the top organizations including the Divine Alliance, the Hong Alliance, and the Tang Alliance.

However, to Yi Zheng, the Heaven Alliance’s resources were worthy of being envied. Although there were not many Heaven Alliance members in Division 3, the Heaven Alliance would definitely be given the permission to enter the ruins whenever one opened in Division 3.

“Oh yeah, it’s been a long time since you’ve logged into Genius Union.” Yi Zheng did not want to dwell on the upsetting topic, so he changed the subject instead.

“I think it’s been four to five months since I last logged in.” Lin Huang counted to himself and nodded subsequently. “I was very busy the few months before the New Year and I’ve been practicing my sword skills after that.”

“No wonder I don’t see your name on the Stairway Tree this year,” Yi Zheng said while grinning.

“The scoreboard refreshes every 1st of January, am I right?” Lin Huang just remembered that the Stairway Tree scoreboard would be refreshed annually.

“The Stairway Tree scoreboard is calculated annually. It’ll be refreshed every year at midnight on the 1st of January. Then, everyone will have zero points on the scoreboard,” Yi Zheng confirmed.
