Chapter 10: Treasure Chest! Rank Rewards!

Immediately, everyone seemed to be struck by a realization as they exchanged glances.

"In that case, it's highly likely that it's Qin Feng..."

"Yeah! He was alone in the vicinity just now, which aligns with the behavior of a loner."

"Hey~! No wonder he refused to join us. He's incredibly strong!"

The crowd murmured among themselves, expressing their surprise and awe.

Lei Jue's eyes held a complex mixture of emotions.

Just then, a new announcement from Tiandao broke through their discussion.

[Announcement: A resident of this novice village has reached level 3, activating the ranking channel.]

[Reminder: Currently, only the village ranking is accessible, with only the top 100 making it onto the list.]

"The ranking channel is open!"

"Only the top 100 can be listed!"

"Someone triggered the ranking channel by reaching level 3."

"Could it be that Qin Feng has reached level 3?"

"Let's go check it out!"

Lei Jue and the others immediately accessed the Tiandao interface and entered the ranking channel.

As they viewed the list, they were left stunned.

Qin Feng's rank was not what they had anticipated, leaving them perplexed once more.

Meanwhile, Qin Feng continued on his way towards the end of the Novice Plain.

At that moment, he also received a notification.

Intrigued, he summoned the Tiandao interface, noticing a new option labeled [List Channel] in the bottom right corner.

Curious, he opened the ranking channel and saw the list:

[Novice Village Level Ranking]

1st Place: Liu Xuan, level 3.

2nd Place: Longshan, level 2.

The third place is Wu Yong, level 2.

Fourth place: Yu Wen, level 2

Fifth place: Gu Ming, level 2

6th place, Lei Jue, level 2

…

Forty-seventh place, Qin Feng, level 1

…

"I'm only forty-seventh!"

Qin Feng muttered to himself as he switched to the chat channel.

There was lively conversation happening there.

"Wow! Big Liu Xuan has reached level 3, that's amazing!"

"Yeah! I'm still level 1 (13/100) right now, a long way from level 2. Big Liu Xuan reaching level 3 is truly impressive!"

"And there are eight bosses who reached level 2. They're so strong!"

"I wish I could be like them!"

Seeing this, Qin Feng felt a pang of anxiety.

Four or five hours had passed, and eight people had reached level 2.

Meanwhile, Liu Xuan had even reached level 3.

He needed to speed up his leveling.

Before, he spent all his time searching for corpses and didn't focus on killing monsters to level up.

Now, he needed to prioritize hunting beasts.

At that moment, Tiandao issued another announcement.

[Announcement: The novice upgrade reward system has been revealed.]

[The first person to reach level 10 will receive a golden treasure chest.]

[The second person to reach level 10 will receive a silver treasure chest.]

[The third person to reach level 10 will receive three bronze treasure chests.]

[The 4th to 10th people to reach level 10 will each receive two bronze treasure chests.]

[The 11th to 100th people to reach level 10 will each receive a bronze treasure chest.]

[Treasure chest: Contains items set by Tiandao. Opening the chest reveals the items within.]

[Treasure chests are divided into black iron, bronze, silver, gold, dark gold, purple diamond, epic, and mythical levels. Higher-level chests have a higher chance of containing advanced items.]

[Reminder: Once you reach level 10, the treasure chest will be distributed immediately, without waiting for the end of the assessment.]

The chat channel erupted in excitement upon hearing the news.

"Wow! Top 100 get treasure chest rewards for reaching level 10!"

"First place gets a golden chest!"

"The reward is given immediately upon reaching level 10, no waiting required. How generous!"

"So thrilling!"

"I need to level up! I want to make it into the top 100!"

"I'm aiming for the top ten!"

In the chat channel, everyone cheered, marking the beginning of a ranking competition.

Qin Feng was also thrilled.

First place!

Golden treasure chest!

He's all set!

Immediately, he left the chat channel and hastened towards the end of the novice plain...

As he neared the edge, he encountered a formidable beast.

It was a two-meter-tall giant wolf, resembling the prairie gray wolf but significantly larger, with a long silver stripe running from its head to its tail.

Upon using True Sight, he discerned the essence of the giant wolf.

[Ferocious beast]: Silver-backed gray wolf (mutation)

[Level]: Level 1

[Combat evaluation]: 4-star limit

[Characteristics]: Brutal, bloodthirsty, cunning, and capable of summoning others of its kind.

[drop rate]: 1%

After reading the data, Qin Feng couldn't help but take a breath.

This is actually a level 1 mutant beast, and its combat power has reached the 4-star limit, which is stronger than a level 2 beast.

The combat power of a level 2 beast is only 4 stars.

Qin Feng's assessment of his comprehensive strength is from 4 stars to the limit of 4 stars.

In this comparison, he may not be able to deal with the giant wolf in front of him.

This giant wolf is an extremely tricky opponent.

However, its drop rate is 1%,

which is ten times that of ordinary level 1 beasts.

If he kills it, maybe something good will come out.

Besides, his assessment of his comprehensive strength is all speculation.

It really needs to be verified.

Now is the time to test his strength.

With this thought, Qin Feng's fighting spirit broke out, and he was ready to give it a go.
