Chapter 1718: Chapter 1718
Du You rested at home, but outside, the world was in an uproar. Especially those with seventh-tier strength, after witnessing Du You’s prowess, their feelings were indescribable. One must know, Du You had just recently broken through to the eighth tier.
"Do you know, I also participated in this mission, and speaking of Lord Du You, he is just too amazing. He has two professions, the combined attributes of which are simply beyond our comparison."
"I know Lord Du You has two professions, his strength is naturally formidable."
"No, you don’t get it. Not only is he powerful in himself, he also has many Summoned Beasts. Each of those Summoned Beasts is at the eighth tier. This time, the reason we suffered much less loss compared to the Dragon Clan is largely thanks to Lord Du You."
Another person chimed in: "Summoned Beasts and such, that’s a characteristic of his profession. Lord Du You foresaw his tremendous strength from the beginning, so he never relied on those early-stage summoning professions. However, if you ask me, Lord Du You’s own strength is still formidable; how much can two professions stack up."
"He has just recently broken through to the eighth tier, but his combat prowess is much stronger than many veteran eighth tiers. I heard that Lord Du You has already reached the mid-eighth-tier level."
"What, he has reached the mid-eighth tier already? How powerful, quickly tell us more..."
A group of people gathered around, the person wore a proud expression, as if the tremendous strength was his own.
"Let me tell you, Lord Du You’s defense is the scariest part. He was ambushed by so many dragons, yet remained unscathed. Three powerful defensive skills, can you imagine that."
Well, at their level, quite a few had advanced defense skills, but none had three. Being able to advance even one defensive skill was already impressive. Actually, before reaching this level, most of them only had one defense skill, if any, as skill slots and advancement materials are very precious.
Within the seventh-tier range, everyone was discussing because too many had seen Du You in action; this was impossible to hide. Actually, now aside from being a 10-star, Du You had nothing left to hide.
At his level of strength, even if others knew, it wouldn’t affect him at all. Likewise, Du You didn’t deliberately hide nor deliberately publicize; everything was natural.
Not all his Summoned Beasts were released that day, so there was much debate outside about it.
Du You could be said to have made a name for himself with this battle; everyone recognized his strength. Initially thought to be a lucky newcomer, now no one dared to think that; reaching near late-eighth-tier strength was no joke.
With so many Summoned Beasts, even reaching the peak of the eighth tier, defeating Du You wouldn’t be easy.
Fortunately, all this was circulated among those above the seventh tier, while below the seventh, although many had also seen Du You in action, none could fully grasp how strong he was.
They could only speculate, but Du You was indeed dazzling in this battle.
The situation continued to spread, with the topic of Du You, which had just simmered down, erupting once more.
External agencies were getting headaches; he reached the eighth tier, yet hiding his information was so difficult. Helplessly, they quietly added him into the promotion of other famous experts.
They hoped using such promotions would weaken some of the impact caused by Du You, preventing the public from remembering him every day.
Although Du You had become a benchmark, inspiring future generations to progress. But if always displayed, it might expose more high-level world information. By then, lower-level professionals might lose confidence.
Meanwhile, some people on the European Union’s side secretly gathered. If someone recognized them, they would find these were all eighth-tier strongmen. They accounted for half of the eighth-tier strongmen on the European Union’s side.
"Do you still want to oppose him? His strength now far exceeds yours."
The Shadow King was conflicted and regretful, wishing he had gotten on good terms with Du You earlier. He originally thought that reaching the eighth tier, for a long time, that guy would never catch up to him.
Even in the future, if he caught up, it would no longer matter. With his arrangements on the European side, by then everyone would be hostile to Du You, so he wouldn’t have to step up himself.
But who could have imagined, in this short time, his arrangements had just started, yet no one wanted to oppose Du You anymore. Because Du You’s displayed strength was too terrifying.
Among them, the most powerful could only ensure victory over Du You, but capturing him was impossible. Moreover, with Du You’s current growth rate, who knows to what extent he could improve.
It was said that this time many had acquired substantial Origin Fragments, Du You surely did too.
The most powerful among them hadn’t participated in this matter, nor made any gains. Once Du You digested his earnings, he might directly confront them, so everyone didn’t want to make things difficult for Du You.
Previously, without having officially met, now everyone felt fortunate.
The Shadow King was in a tight spot, because his relations with Du You were very poor.
Even without direct conflict, he had threatened Du You before. Given Du You’s vengeful nature, should something happen, that guy was very likely to strike when he was down.
Mid-eighth tier, how did that guy manage, does he not have any bottlenecks in his advancement? The rıghtful source is 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝕟𝕖𝕥
Everyone only knew Du You’s foundation was solid, but who knew it had reached a flawless state. With the same resources, Du You could advance faster and higher.
"Fine, I will apologize to him, and it won’t implicate the European Union’s side."
Seeing the Shadow King finally compromise, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Within the eighth tier, the Shadow King was quite a difficult character. Though not very strong, his personality was insidious and ruthless.
Due to this battle, the ninth-tier powers faintly took notice of Du You. It’s not only his dazzling performance but because he might be closest to reaching this level, most likely to stand on the same level with them.
A future potential ninth-tier presence, those at the ninth-tier would inevitably pay attention.
