“Leveling up here is so satisfying, I wish we could do it for a few more days,” Zhao Lei said, gnawing on roasted meat by the campfire.

“It’s easy. There are plenty of passages in this mountain cave, it’s practically a spider’s nest. We could clear out another passage tomorrow, there’s so much spider eggs we couldn’t possibly finish them all. That is, if you guys have the time. I, for one, plan on leveling up to ten right here.”

Li Yao, meanwhile, was skillfully crafting ammunition and exploding sheep at the workstation, all while explaining with a smile.

“Of course we need to level up to ten. Right, honey?” Angel was worried his decisive wife might not agree. This was a rare opportunity after all.

It only took him half a day to reach level six. Although leveling up from this point onwards required a huge amount of experience, it was much faster than leveling up outside.

“We’re probably going to be the first to reach level ten.” Fruit Knight watched Li Yao effortlessly crafting an exploding sheep, and then said, “Freak. He hasn’t failed once.

Angel, helpless, replied, “Just ignore him. This guy is just too abnormal. I won’t be surprised anymore no matter what crazy thing he does next.” “Damn, boss.” Zhao Lei suddenly pointed at the sky.

A bird cry sounded in the night sky, followed by a fiery figure hurtling downwards.

All three of the Fruit Knight’s men stood up, hastily retrieving their weapons.

“No worries. My pet.” Li Yao patted the head of the Fire Bird, then tossed out a mechanical part.

The Fire Bird cheerfully swallowed the part, then spread its wings and soared back into the sky.

“Didn’t you say you wouldn’t be surprised by anything he does?” Fruit Knight said as he sat back down by the tent.

“I …” Angel fell silent, then turned to Li Yao and said, “Dude, I honestly don’t know what to say anymore.”

“Then, just log out, or you guys can head back to the city to play the instance.” Li Yao also said somewhat helplessly. After dark, they’d tried to take on one small wave of monsters.

The violent spiders brought the two MT’s life to a precarious state. If it weren’t for Li Yao’s exploding sheep and hand cannon, they probably would have been wiped out and all the day’s gains would’ve been lost.

Afterwards, the group set up a small camp on a flat part of the cave. The camp had the amenities of an inn when they logged out, and almost all the food they cooked had attribute bonuses.

“By the way, where was your pet just now? He didn’t seem to be around.” Zhao Lei asked, puzzled.

“He was helping me to go to Sephercher to buy arrow shafts, saved me a lot of trouble.” Li Yao casually replied.

“What? Buying arrow shafts? Are you joking? How could he help you buy things?” Zhao Lei and the others were all stupefied. Pets buying arrow shafts were unheard of.

“It’s simple. I gave the boss the money when I came, and we agreed that when he sees my pet he would bring out the arrow shafts. My pet has a storage space. So bringing the arrow shafts to me isn’t hard, right?” Li Yao asked rhetorically.

“I …” Zhao Lei fell silent, “You’ve thought of everything possible. You’re unbelievable.”

“Knowing how awesome the Hunter is, I should’ve picked to play the Hunter too,” mumbled Angel.

“What’s wrong? Feeling unjust about healing me?” Fruit Knight said indifferently.

“Cough, cough, just kidding, just kidding.” Angel hurriedly explained.

Li Yao shook his head. This pair was really interesting.

In truth, Li Yao had no other choice. While the bag had limited space, traveling back and forth between the city wasted too much time. Hence, he had thought of this solution. Initially, he was worried that the Firebird couldn’t handle it or find Sephercher, but this time’s success relieved him of his worries about sustainability.

This also gave Li Yao more confidence in the Wisdom Blessing. As long as he nurtures it well, one day he may develop it into a divine pet.

Subsequently, Li Yao led his team along the hot path of leveling up. Thanks to the speedy progress, everyone was bursting with enthusiasm.

Especially Li Yao, he was already ahead of the others and, coupled with the experience bonus, his leveling speed was terrifying.

By the afternoon of the fourth day, accompanied by a golden glow, Li Yao finally leveled up to level 10.

At the same time, the colorful world announcement started refreshing.

“System: Player Prairie Fire is the first to level up to level 10, receiving glory and illuminating the world. An honorary title, Dare to be the First, is obtained, along with 2 talent points.”

Dare to be the First: Possessing a certain degree of fame, it will be easier to get recognition from NPCs.

“System: Player Prairie Fire is the first to level up to level 10, therefore, the level ranking is now open.”

“System: Player Prairie Fire is the first to level up to level 10. The main storyline dungeon, Evil Cave, is now open. Players below level 10 can receive mainline tasks in their respective towns to qualify for the mainline dungeon challenge.”

These three announcements drove all online players crazy and they quickly checked the level rankings.

At this moment, the level rankings only had one lonely entry: Prairie Fire: Level 10, Class: Hunter.

The elites of various guilds, as well as the players of various teams who had all set their sights on being the first to level up to level 10, were dumbfounded.

Particularly for many professional players, the name Prairie Fire may not be very familiar, but it’s not unfamiliar either, as they had used his walkthroughs for their gameplay.

After getting excellent equipment and experience from beating the first boss, they originally thought that Prairie Fire, as a hunter who didn’t attract much attention, should vanish from the game scene.

However, in just a few days, he had shot up to level 10.

Although they were upset about missing out on being the first, many players who saw no chance of claiming the top spot now started devising ways to boost their levels and aimed to be among the first ten to reach level 10 and get on the rankings list.

Then, Tonton began to complain about Li Yao in a chat, saying that she and Qin Feng Yi have jointly killed several bosses in the past few days, and all were first kills achievements. She wanted to show off to Li Yao, but now all her enthusiasm was gone.

Li Yao comforted her with a few words and then ended the chat. By now, being the first to kill low-level bosses was not that extraordinary anymore.

As players continued to explore, they could always find bosses that were relatively easy to kill. And as the players’ levels increased and their equipment gradually improved, some bosses under level 5 began to be targeted for hunting.

Especially those guilds that needed to make a name for themselves were very enthusiastic about such things that could draw attention.

Li Yao didn’t bother with the disorder in the outside world, and continued to level up with his three companions. The three of them were already level 9 and with one more day’s hard work, they should all reach level 10.

In the evening, Li Yao returned to Sephercher to learn the level 10 hunter skill of capturing pets and a series of other pet-related skills.

Then, he spent Gold Coins to learn a basic skill, Frost Trap.

Another day passed. Fruit Knight reached level 10 at noon, the second player to do so. As if that wasn’t enough to shake the world, that afternoon, Zhao Lei and Guardian Angel also reached level 10, monopolizing the ranking list.

This one-two punch left the large guilds and battle teams with a dumbfounded expression. They attempted to investigate who these other three were, but to no avail.

The competition nevertheless intensified further. Only six positions remained in the top ten. Although positions other than the first weren’t announced publicly, the second to ninth would all be awarded talent points.

The talent tree was unlocked after reaching level 10, which was when you had to choose a branch. There was no doubt about the importance of talent points.

“I got an extra talent point rewarded, along with another one from reaching level 10. I will use both to boost my healing series so I can heal more effectively,” Guardian Angel said to Fruit Knight to win her favor.

“That’s your choice, I don’t care,” Fruit Knight said coldly, but her eyes betrayed her obvious happiness. She continued, “Let’s return to town. I’m sick of the monsters here.’

“Hold on a second. I noticed a very special spider in the cave yesterday. Since I just learned the pet capture skill, I want to try to capture it and see how it goes,” Li Yao suddenly suggested…

PS: The bonus update is here. Tomorrow is Monday and I hope those who have time can vote after midnight, click on some stuff and so forth. Thanks, everyone..
