not far off stood a middle-aged man in a mage’s robe, face expressionless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened with a shield and blink to create distance, then activated his gear skill to erect a barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, an elemental array materialized, and vast quantities of elements coalesced into an elemental spirit legion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A high-agility, high-perception elemental legion build,” Chu Danqing said, surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the Paradise promotes five-attribute growth, as long as base attributes advance in sync, secondary attribute specialization is fully possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High agility grants rapid neural response; high perception enables strong elemental communication—both bypassing spirit attribute entirely to enable large-scale elemental application.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent’s casting speed was extremely fast; by the time Da Bao charged into the elemental spirit legion, the elemental summoner had already cast nearly twenty legion-buffing skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn’t a mage stacking agility to become an assassin—this was using agility to boost reaction speed and thus casting speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under such rapid casting, his own energy couldn’t keep up, so he used perception as a substitute, compensating through elemental communication.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Lan Wu Ying’s path was somewhat similar, except he used communication to make elements fight up close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elite builds with passive traits are indeed powerful—but quantity remains a problem,” the elemental summoner said after completing his round of buffs, his tone casual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To him, the formation of the elemental spirit legion meant victory was assured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Da Bao might be strong, but so what—he was still just one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most elemental spirits surged toward Chu Danqing; as a summoner himself, he knew summoners’ greatest weakness was the summoner himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he summoned an elemental guard unit to protect himself at the last moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent’s summons all came from skills, forming a complete elemental summoning skill set.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Completely opposite to Chu Danqing’s path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing knew elite builds suffered from low numbers—but he had no such flaw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he spoke, eighty-one Golden Strength Warriors emerged from the Eight Steeds Climbing Dragon Palanquin Talisman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a towering city wall, they instantly blocked the incoming elemental spirit legion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elemental summoner’s expression didn’t change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elite builds with passive traits have one particularly troublesome advantage over legion builds: raw power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His summons’ numbers and skill buffs couldn’t match theirs, but each individual’s strength far surpassed them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Da Bao dealt AoE damage instead of single-target, the elemental spirit legion wouldn’t stand a chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Golden Strength Warriors encircled and advanced slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the elemental summoner no longer held back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elemental mage squads, elemental knight battalions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A complete elemental army descended—infantry, cavalry, archers, mages, priests, even siege engines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least five thousand troops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah?” Chu Danqing understood—he’d met a top-tier player grinding ranks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason he hadn’t summoned outright from the start was the same as Chu Danqing’s: he’d been holding back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this also proved the Paradise’s matchmaking pool had shifted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once you enter the top thousand in your region, you’re matched only with the elite of Rank 1.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When armies exceed a thousand, there’s no edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When armies exceed ten thousand, there’s no rim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing couldn’t see the end—nor could he even spot the elemental summoner anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Chu Danqing transformed the Eight Steeds Climbing Dragon Palanquin into its carriage form, mounted it, and activated the Five Elements Spirit Array; the dragon-horses pulled the carriage into a charge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eighty-one Golden Strength Warriors advanced like moving mountains, their aura crushing the ground into spiderweb cracks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pure Yang Celestial Generals’ heavy shields pushed against the storm; when their surfaces clashed with the elemental knights’ ice-lance spears, frost crystals exploded in all directions, and their blades sliced through the elemental knights’ shield formation, releasing chaotic elemental currents amid clashing metal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Taiyin Mystic Woman atop the palanquin’s canopy billowed her robes, drawing moonlight into spells that rained down, piercing through elemental archers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dragon-horses neighed, shattering incoming elemental foes; wherever the palanquin passed, everything was crushed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout the entire advance, they tore open a massive gap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing pulled out a sterile blood-drawing device; his HP dropped rapidly to 50%, all buffs maximized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the elemental army, already incapable of resisting Chu Danqing’s summons, became weaker than paper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elemental army’s numbers were vast, but Chu Danqing didn’t need to kill them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like the elemental summoner, the enemy couldn’t kill Da Bao—their goal was to kill Chu Danqing to execute a decapitation strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing didn’t need to wipe out the entire elemental army—only to kill the elemental summoner, and the rest would be easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Bai Bao’s Perception x2, his perception efficiency was inferior to Da Bao’s, but his perception range was far greater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swiftly locked onto the elemental summoner’s position; under Chu Danqing’s command, the Pure Yang Celestial Generals carved a bloody path forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for enemy attacks, they landed on the summons, causing limited damage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, due to Chu Danqing’s shields and buffs; second, their high base stats allowed them to absorb more damage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elemental summoner sensed the gap between them, assessed the situation, and realized his win rate had dropped to zero.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Add me as a friend, let’s exchange insights,” the elemental summoner said as the Pure Yang Celestial General reached him, raising his greatsword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His head flew off; Chu Danqing won.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Victory! 502 consecutive wins achieved. Reward: Arena Points ×10, Rank upgraded to: 988】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arena ended; Chu Danqing was teleported back and sent a friend request to the elemental summoner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, a friend request appeared in his friend list.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the opponent had sent one too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both accepted simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【ElementalFertilizer1: Hello】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【SilentPoetry: Hello】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two had perfect timing—each sent a greeting in sequence, effectively exchanging aliases.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing glanced at the opponent’s name, his expression slightly odd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The alias was strange, but Chu Danqing understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fertilizer boosts yield—abstract, yes, but vaguely related to legion builds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【ElementalFertilizer1: If I hadn’t seen you in person, I’d think you were an assassin build】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent opened with a jab—Chu Danqing’s alias had nothing to do with his actual build.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【SilentPoetry: Just misdirection. By the way, your—】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing replied, then shifted to the topic, asking about legion and elemental summoning knowledge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent first cautiously answered Chu Danqing’s questions, then inquired about Chu Danqing’s summon cultivation methods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, both had never encountered such a powerful summoner before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing had met summoners in the arena before, but none amounted to anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing needed an equal exchange partner, not a weaker one to teach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless of build, strength is fundamentally built on knowledge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stronger one is, the more profound their knowledge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They traded words back and forth; Chu Danqing deduced the opponent’s base skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“His foundation isn’t standard Summoning Theory or Summoning Arts—it’s likely a specialization in Ancient Creature Summoning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elemental Summoning Theory and Elemental Summoning Arts probably have a third core skill: Elemental Dominion. His base skills are fewer than mine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“His path is clearly locked into the elemental legion build.” Chu Danqing had uncovered much of the opponent’s foundation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent could likely deduce Chu Danqing’s base skill profile from his knowledge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“His level is probably lower than mine—no more than just reaching Proficiency, max Level 3.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s at least three times stronger than me in elemental and legion domains, but far weaker in everything else.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But he specializes in elements and legions—I can’t match him there.” Chu Danqing exchanged with him for about an hour, gaining immense insight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent gained equally—Chu Danqing’s skills were higher-ranked and more comprehensive, filling the opponent’s gaps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Specializing in elemental builds means other areas are inevitably weakened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For both, this was a major gain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Level up,” Da Bao said, tugging Chu Danqing’s sleeve once he sensed the conversation was winding down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What leveled up?” Chu Danqing didn’t react until he checked his panel: “Oh, your Tearing Claws and Bloodthirsty Pursuit leveled up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Tearing Claws (Active) LV.18: After activation, attacks deal 18 additional Tearing Damage and inflict Bleeding status; consumes 18 Blood Rage per minute while active】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Bloodthirsty Pursuit (Passive) LV.18: When damaging enemies with Bleeding status, gain life drain and add an extra 18 Bleeding Damage】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From Level 17 to 18—it surprised Chu Danqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Combat intensity clearly accelerates your skill leveling,” Chu Danqing said, glancing at the bonus, feeling resigned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One level only adds one damage point—now it’s falling behind the pace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Da Bao’s world runs deep; raising his bloodline concentration should trigger further skill evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How do you feel?” Chu Danqing asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not, how, it,” Da Bao replied: “I think, too many, can’t beat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Da Bao increasingly sensed his flaws—his inability to close distance quickly, and lack of AoE attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Too many enemies? Everyone struggles with that,” Chu Danqing said. “That’s why you must keep fighting—to hone your instincts and intuition.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The level increase of these two skills depended less on Dabao’s effort and more on accumulated experience formed by instinct and intuition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What could a five-year-old understand?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, let’s play another round and check the enemy’s situation,” Chu Danqing said. “Last time was a mistake. When we face a close-combat opponent, you’ll understand your true strength.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dabao nodded; he naturally had no reason to doubt Chu Danqing’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for continuing communication with Element Fertilizer No. 1, the other had also gone to the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given the other’s strength, unless they were hiding a trump card like Chu Danqing, winning first place would be difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1574,"2026-06-20T00:54:41.633Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","0ceff3d0b53d74051ce2023483fb1f4f264cf6a8ea655b5d7c15c177bb5a24d4","dimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-chapter-244","dimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-chapter-242",305,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-cover.jpg"]
