How should I speak to the Director?

Even though she was not old, Zheng Qing was inwardly complaining.

[Email from the logistics team, encrypted. Accept?]

Another window popped up, covering the Moon travel brochure that Zheng Qing had just opened.

Muting the travel video, Zheng Qing opened the email.

[New Tribulation] A few simple words, followed by a live broadcast address.

After obtaining the S-grade "Hungry Ghost Path," Zheng Qing's strength and status surged, naturally entitling her to such resources.

Unfortunately, her "origins" were not good enough, she could only undergo second-rate Human Tribulation—she could do the Supreme Immortal Tribulation too, but only a fool would try.

Others attempting the Supreme Immortal Tribulation could be somewhat understood, but if Zheng Qing did, it would mean she had gone mad.

Haven't you seen how Li Changzhou used the "Hungry Ghost Path" during his Human Tribulation, how perfect he was? Zheng Qing had to learn from it.

"Someone's undergoing Tribulation again," Zhou Ying commented, also glancing over.

Watching Tribulation live broadcasts had no access restrictions; anyone could watch. However, with Zheng Qing's status, she did not need to watch it persistently. An attendant would remind her, and she would receive intelligence analyses.

In the high-definition footage, an animal player was undergoing Tribulation.

"Qing Jie, what layer do you think he can withstand this time?" Zhou Ying asked, staring at the screen.

The countries consider the 'dark fog' as the First Layer, and 'Li Changzhou himself' as the Second Layer.

So far, ninety percent of the players undergoing Tribulation died in the First Layer, and the few who managed to enter the Second Layer were instantly killed.

"Whether it's the First Layer or the Second Layer, there's not much hope of getting through," Zheng Qing said.

In her heart, she also felt some despair and apprehension. This time, aside from the mission, the higher-ups had specifically instructed her to ask Li Changzhou himself or his sister for guidance on how to undergo Tribulation.

After returning, they won't make it difficult for Zheng Qing. She does not need to share the conversation with the Special Warfare Bureau; they will analyze her Tribulation on their own.

But whether she could obtain guidance, or whether Li Changzhou himself knew how to defeat an unforgiving version of himself, Zheng Qing was unsure.

If she couldn't become an Immortal, she would have to struggle between life and death with monthly missions for the rest of her life.

Zheng Qing took a deep breath, reminding herself she shouldn't feel such emotions. According to the logistics team's analysis, eighty percent of the players with such emotions died in the First Layer, killed by the combination of 'dark fog + Emotion Control.'

"It's starting!" Zhou Ying's voice brought her back to reality.

In the screen, the sky darkened, and clouds churned ominously. The following scene was something players would dream about—Zheng Qing had actually dreamt of it, a nightmare.

Li Changzhou emerged from the dark clouds.

The Tribulation was being carried out by an enormous yellow and black insect, grotesque in appearance, something out of a sci-fi alien movie, unrecognizable as to what kind of insect it originally was.

"Chirp!" The insect's legs kicked out, instantly accelerating faster than a spaceship.

"That must be a flea's ability," Zhou Ying said.

Whether it was originally a flea or not didn't matter anymore; in any case, humans couldn't deal with the insect as fleas would.

"Escaping, is it trying a delay tactic, or has it not evolved intelligence, merely fleeing from instinctive danger?" Not just Zheng Qing pondered this—all the players around the world watching this scene were contemplating.

This wasn't just entertainment, they had to learn something from it!

"The last time, a player from France tried running, didn't they? Weren't they caught and killed after being chased down by simulated skills?" Zhou Ying said.

Just as everyone expected the Human Tribulation to use a similar simulated skill to chase after the player—

The Human Tribulation did not turn into dark fog; it raised its hand, and in the viewers' minds, Li Changzhou disappeared, replaced by a massive Divine Bow.

Thwack!

It was as if a bowstring had been released, the sound of air vibrating sharply.

A punch was thrown like a sharp arrow, swift as lightning.

It was impossible to see clearly what happened; Li Changzhou had just approached with a punch.

The insect player undergoing Tribulation was punctured through and through, crashing down in the jungle like a downed aircraft, with innards and blood scattered all around.

The clouds rolled tumultuously, drawing in. Li Changzhou, who hadn't moved from the start, turned and disappeared into the sea of clouds.

Zhou Ying fell silent.

Was the insect player weak? Very much so, killed by a single punch.

What level was the insect player? At least the Fourth Layer of Visualization, while Zhou Ying was on the Third Layer, already outstanding within the Special Warfare Bureau.

Zheng Qing opened the national team's internal forum.

"No, we can't wait! We must undergo Tribulation immediately! This guy is learning more and more! Research is useless!" Such opinions filled the forum.

Could advancing Tribulation early let them survive? Could they defeat Li Changzhou right now?

But waiting... did they plan to compete with Li Changzhou in terms of cultivation speed?

Zheng Qing secretly hoped something unexpected would happen to Li Changzhou; such a Human Tribulation was too despairing.
