“Man, I wish I could run a dungeon with Ms. Lane.”

“It’s so unfair. They’re leveling up at lightning speed. If only I could get inside and pick up a few levels myself.”

“I’m just too weak. I can’t even make the cut as a benchwarmer for Ms. Lane’s team.”

Ms. Lane?

Leveling up?

Wasn’t there only one Mythic-tier dungeon entrance in the area?

The plaza constructed by the God of Sealed Realms stretched for more than a hundred miles. The pillar of light from the Mythic-tier dungeon pierced the sky, visible for miles. For dozens of kilometers, there wasn’t another dungeon in sight.

So what was going on with this mysterious team?

Felicia noticed them immediately.

As a Mythic-tier professional, her senses were razor-sharp. Even with a thousand voices, she could sift through the chatter and pick out the truth.

Her own team caught on fast, and soon the discussion was buzzing.

“Joanna-yes, that Joanna-put together her own squad and cleared the dungeon. She didn’t bring a single Mythic-tier.”

“No way! How do you even clear a Mythic-tier dungeon without any Mythic-tiers?”

“It’s real. Check the clear records.”

Beyond first-clears, dungeons kept speedrun leaderboards.

Whoever finished the fastest claimed the top spot.

And Mythic-tier dungeons were not for beginners. To protect prodigies, speedrun records updated in real time.

Felicia’s eyes locked on the glowing gate. Instantly, the system’s data sprang up before her.

First Place: Starlight Legion, 4 hours 45 minutes 39 seconds, SSS rank.

Second Place: Radiance Legion, 6 hours 32 minutes 18 seconds, S rank.

Felicia could hardly believe what she was seeing.

All around, more and more eyes turned to the pillar of light above the dungeon entrance.

In an instant, the plaza was a storm of voices.

“How is this possible?”

“Joanna might be called the Space Alliance’s No. 1 Prodigy, but she’s just a kid! Isn’t she only an advanced professional?”

“And she finished a whole hour faster than us? Did she bring twenty Mythic-tiers?”

“There must be a bug in the system!”

Some rushed over to the group of a thousand for answers.

The interstellar sentinels themselves didn’t really know what happened inside.

But what they did reveal shocked everyone.

Joanna’s legion had no Mythic-tier powerhouses at all.

It was made up entirely of Nightstar Group’s internal professionals, sentinels from Joanna’s own dimension, most of them low in level.

Not only that-every one of them had leveled up.

And they’d earned an SSS rank.

Then people glanced at their own team.

Goddess of Radiance had brought 22 divine spirits.

Their squad was a who’s-who of dimensional elites, packed with second-generation. professionals, 20 percent advanced professionals with connections, 60 percent Sage-tier, and 20 percent Grandmaster-tier.

Yet in the end, people lost levels.

And their rating was only S?

It was enough to shake anyone’s confidence. Who was the real expert here?

shouted.

The Goddess of Radiance shot a frosty look at her team.

She said coldly, “Then buy their guide. Take a break. Once we have it, we’ll go again. No sense wasting energy without the right strategy.”

Joanna only needed four hours per dungeon run. She was already more than an hour in.

Three hours left to wait.

With the right guide, they could go in. Otherwise, it was just throwing away their efforts.

During that wait, the Radiance Legion’s base buzzed with heated debate.

In the crowd, Saul was the most astonished of all.

His PhD students clustered around, eyes wide.

His youngest disciple, Shawn, nudged him.

“Sir, did we bet on the wrong horse? What if Joanna was actually the true powerhouse?”

Saul’s face flushed with embarrassment.

He’d wanted to lead Joanna in slaying gods.

Now Joanna was slaying gods without him—and faster than he ever imagined.

Radiance Legion’s managers soon caught on that Joanna had come with Saul. They reached out to him, hoping he’d persuade Joanna to sell them her strategy guide.

Saul didn’t dare make any guarantees.

“My student is far more capable than I am. I just have the Professor title. I can introduce you, but I don’t make the decisions.”

“That’s fine!”

Several hours later, Joanna and her team finally emerged from the dungeon.

With 10 thousand people filing out, everyone in the plaza took notice.

“Joanna!” Saul called out right away.

“Professor, what’s going on?” Joanna turned, spotting her mentor and the people gathered with him.

“Allow me to introduce you. This is Wayne Mahoney, the head of Radiance Legion’s strategy

team.”

“Hello, Professor Mahoney,” Joanna nodded, polite but reserved.

Since Saul had made the introduction and Wayne was from the strategy team, Joanna kept her tone civil.

“You’re the real genius here. I’m honestly embarrassed by the title. I’ll be direct-our strategy has hit a wall. We’d like to discuss it with you, Professor Lane.”

Joanna arched an eyebrow.

Discuss?

You’re just fishing for my strategy, aren’t you?

She didn’t hesitate. “My strategy doesn’t fit your team.”

Wayne’s smile froze, but he understood. Nobody hands out their strategies for free. The more you share, the less there is to gain for yourself.
