was offline.This final boss was ultimately claimed by Ye Qiu and his team. When dividing up rewards, Ye Qiu announced two pieces of news:"Good news: It seems Lin Jingyan won't continue leading a group to battle us through the night.""Bad news: Badao's Dominating Strategy appears to be preparing for Zhang Xinjie and Lin Jingyan to fight side by side. The difficulty of competing with them has further increased. Those who failed to get the boss in their previous battles should
already have felt this," he said."How do we handle this?"¡Corta la Torre de Lulán pidió a Ye Qiu su estrategia."Ye Qiu pointed at Yue Ziting, Bai Xi, Jing Liu, and Wu Jinkui, the three guild leaders: "Why don’t any of your teams have a professional player to help out?"The three guild leaders collectively looked miserable. "We can't do this ourselves!" Indeed, no professional player's contract required them to help in such situations. Beyond being the public guild leader, even the

Ye Qiu remained true to his love for the game and viewed it as a sacred honor, continuously striving. This was
also what Honor intended: calling it by that name while promoting everything within the game as honorable. For Ye Qiu and others like him, this struggle was their ideal.Throughout this journey, Ye Qiu saw many things.Back then, his three friends with similar ideals—Sun Xiang and Tang Hao—all changed teams after gaining fame, leaving only Ye Qiu on his original path: pursuing honor through the game.While busy dealing with matters that professional players usually wouldn't bother with, it was all for
