Chapter 61: An Unfair Life
Qin Xian turned to Qin Li and said, “Let’s form a team and enter together.”
Qin Li, overjoyed, quickly nodded and sent him a party invitation.
Once they successfully formed a team, they could both see each other’s information on the party panel.
[Name]: Qin Xian
[Class]: Oracle Knight
[Level]: LV21
[HP: 45,200 / MP: 43,600]
Looking at Qin Xian’s status panel, although it didn’t reveal much information, the sheer number of hit points alone left Qin Li in awe.
43,000 HP!
To put that in perspective, ordinary professionals of the same level typically had around 10,000 HP. Qin Xian’s health was comparable to that of a level 45+ expert!
[Name]: Qin Li
[Class]: Deathbringer Angel
[Level]: LV15
[HP: 22,450 / MP: 23,100]

At that moment, Qiu Bo’s voice came through, “Young Master, Young Miss, they have arrived.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of powerful figures arrived via the teleportation array, immediately drawing the attention of everyone in the valley.
From the array emerged a team of professionals, all at level 39, equipped with top-tier A-grade and even S-grade gear. Their presence was on par with Zhao Xiang, but now, there was an entire team of them.
“So many top-tier level 39s!?” The crowd was stunned as they watched these experts walk over to Qin Xian, all showing deep respect.
“Young Master!”
One by one, these level 39 experts joined Qin Xian’s team.
Seeing this, the crowd’s eyes widened in disbelief. If just one Zhao Xiang had shocked them, an entire team of people on his level was unimaginable!
Qin Xian remained expressionless, simply nodding in acknowledgment. As the heir to the Qin family, he naturally had access to all of its resources.
Shattered Heaven offered the blessing of the ancient gods, which could directly elevate a professional’s attributes by an entire tier. Of course, the Qin family had prepared extensively for this, so that Qin Xian could maximize the benefits of such a blessing.
Since Qin Xian’s birth, the Qin family had poured countless resources into carefully selecting hundreds of professionals, ultimately choosing this elite team of more than twenty people.
Each of them had been capped at level 39 and equipped with the best level 39 gear available. They had even trained specifically to counter the monsters within Shattered Heaven.
These people’s lives had been essentially bought by the Qin family. In essence, they existed solely for the purpose of clearing the Shattered Heaven dungeon with Qin Xian.
They were tools, crafted by the Qin family, solely to ensure Qin Xian would receive the divine blessing.
Although they were fortunate that after twenty years, the Shattered Heaven dungeon had reopened, if it hadn’t,
Qin Xian would have grown stronger on his own, while they would have remained stuck at their capped level, aging and eventually dying.
Even after clearing Shattered Heaven, these experts would be rendered largely useless. They had wasted twenty years, and their future potential had already been capped.
Their only purpose now was to serve Qin Xian, helping him conquer Shattered Heaven and ensuring that all resources were funneled to him, allowing him to receive the highest divine blessing from the ancient gods.
Yet, they harbored no resentment. Their families had been loyal to the Qin family for generations, and they considered it the highest honor to serve the Qin household.
Even though they had sacrificed their entire lives for a single dungeon, they had been well compensated. Their families would prosper under the Qin family’s protection.
Qin Xian gazed at his team of level 39 “tools,” his expression calm. He fully understood the sacrifices his subordinates had made, but in his heart, he felt nothing.
As the heir of the Qin family, this was simply the way things were—something he had long grown accustomed to.
—
The crowd watched in stunned silence, unable to calm the turmoil in their hearts. Seeing the lengths to which the Qin family had gone to secure Qin Xian’s success left them in awe. Their envy turned into shock as they realized they could never compare.
This was the power and foundation of a top noble family. To ensure that Qin Xian successfully cleared one dungeon, they had sacrificed the futures of more than twenty promising experts, reducing them to tools whose sole purpose was to secure Qin Xian’s divine blessing.
With a team of top-tier level 39 professionals backing him, Qin Xian’s perfect clearance of Shattered Heaven was all but guaranteed.
As for the rest of the ordinary people present, they could only form their own teams, hoping they might be lucky enough to defeat even a single boss and receive a reward. If they succeeded, it would be a miracle.
But the more likely outcome was that many of them would die inside the dungeon.
Such was life. It was unfair.
