This news also reached Baiye City.
Tidal Town's reply was based on Baiye City's "System Loudspeaker," so all Adventurers who were paying attention to the Loudspeaker saw this reply.
This also caused a stir among the Adventurers in Baiye City.
"No way, did he really choose to give up firearms? It would clearly be more advantageous for him to use firearms..."
"Yeah, I'm also puzzled as to why he would choose such a self-defeating method. Battle Royale is still excellent. If it were me, I would still give Battle Royale five votes."
"Me too!"
"Although Fighting World is also good, it's definitely the strongest Dungeon among the newly promoted Battle Royale Dungeons, and all the details are very well done, but I'm still a bit nostalgic!"
While some Adventurers expressed their confusion, they also showed their support for Battle Royale.
However...
Most Adventurers, between Battle Royale and Fighting World, still chose Fighting World.
On one hand, they had witnessed the strength of Fighting World firsthand, and it had truly resonated with them.
On the other hand, this was, after all, a local Dungeon of Baiye City. Although it had once wavered between Baiye City and Tidal Town, it was still a person of Baiye City now, and they still had to consider Baiye City.
It wouldn't be too late to consider Tidal Town once they had a Tidal Town household registration.
Meanwhile.
The Adventurer's Guild of Baiye City naturally received the news first. To be honest, when Ma Lingzhi and the others saw this reply, they were a bit stunned.
"He actually... really agreed..."
"How does this seem a bit different from the plan?"
"At that time, Sun Shu guessed that this Dungeon Lord would definitely not give up his advantageous area to compete in the orthodoxy of swords, but now..."
"What should we do!"
The high-ranking officials of Baiye City were at a loss for a moment.
Logically speaking, this was a good thing.
If the opponent gave up his advantageous area, the probability of him winning would be even greater.
Just as some Adventurers said, what's the use of changing it temporarily? In the end, if it turns into a frying pan battle, wouldn't it be ridiculous?
But then again...
Agreeing so decisively was truly puzzling.
Ma Lingzhi couldn't help but speculate whether the other party was up to something again.
During this period of contact with Tidal Town, Ma Lingzhi knew very well that the other party was not to be trifled with, so he couldn't help but suspect that Tidal Town had some trump card waiting for him.
He just couldn't figure out why...
Chen Yu's foundation exceeded their imagination. How could they know that Chen Yu was backed by an entire civilization with a highly developed cultural heritage.
"Forget it, things have developed to this point, and it's no longer something we can control. Pass the message to Sun Shu, and Sun Shu will make the decision. Anyway, this matter... you also know, all credit goes to Sun Shu, and we can't get involved anymore."
Ma Lingzhi waved his hand and left the conference room.
Dark World.
Sun Mingde did not realize the seriousness of the matter. After receiving the news, a sneer that was hard to conceal appeared at the corner of his mouth:
"Hehe, how interesting..."
"Sun Shu, what's wrong?" Hua Zixuan asked, his eyes filled with doubt.
Sun Mingde chuckled, "Nothing, the other party actually agreed to compete in the orthodoxy of swords. It really surprised me a little."
"Oh?"
Hua Zixuan's eyes widened in surprise, "Sun Shu, do you mean... he also plans to change his Dungeon into a melee combat type? But his Dungeon... it shouldn't be very suitable!"
"Who knows," Sun Mingde said coldly. "I can only say that this guy is arrogant enough. He really thinks modifying a Dungeon is such a simple thing. Changing the core gameplay is no different from creating a brand new Dungeon."
At this point, Sun Mingde complimented him again.
"Young Master, your talent is extraordinary, and it took you nearly half a month. As for him, without the extremely high-level bonus given to you by the Lord, the difficulty of creating a Dungeon is imaginable... Modifying a Dungeon temporarily at this time is no different from seeking death."
Hua Zixuan nodded, obviously full of confidence in his own work.
"By the way, Young Master, did his Dungeon not choose to 'increase the price'?"
Hua Zixuan shook his head, "After accepting the challenge, there was no more movement, and the time wasn't set. It should be waiting for it to be automatically determined."
Sun Mingde heard this and became even more certain of his judgment, "It seems he's afraid of us too. What kind of hard power can a Lord from a remote town have? It's nothing more than a bit of innovation.
In my guess, he must also know how big the gap is between him and our Baiye City. This 'Dungeon Duel'... he must have chickened out!
Don't let him fool you with his seemingly tough agreement to our 'orthodoxy of swords' duel. In reality, it's just a strategic retreat, thinking that losing this way won't be as ugly."
"I see..." Hua Zixuan nodded thoughtfully, "Sun Shu makes sense. So he's scared?"
The more Hua Zixuan listened, the more reasonable it sounded.
However...
The next moment.
In the 'Dungeon Duel' system, a prompt suddenly popped up.
"The opponent chose to 'increase the price'."
"'Price increase' margin 100%, current challenger count 700 vs 1400."
At the same time, 7000 soul crystals appeared in the soul crystal pool, which was the amount of soul crystals required for 'increasing the price'.
Seeing this prompt.
Hua Zixuan was stunned.
What's going on?
Didn't the opponent chicken out? Why did he suddenly 'increase the price'...
"Sun Shu, what should we do!"
7000 soul crystals was quite a large sum for Hua Zixuan.
He was just a second-generation Lord who had just started to make a name for himself. Although Fighting World had achieved good results these days, it was only just starting to make money.
Taking out 7000 at once was still a bit difficult.
