Chapter 35: A Sudden and Difficult Trial

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The fat man looked at the holes that had been blasted through his belly with a look of disbelief plastered across his face. After a moment, his body crumbled into a pile of debris before reassembling outside the ring.

That fat body was his ability, which was able to block 50% of the attack. Despite this, he was killed in a split second. Only then did the fat man, who was now standing outside the ring, realize how terrifying his opponent truly was.

When they saw that the fat man who had ranked around 6000th was defeated instantly, those in the crowd who had pressed the challenge button felt a stab of pain in their hearts. Those who stood behind the fat man all knew how powerful he was, and they all knew about his special ability. For the fat man to be killed in an instant… at this point they were afraid that they would be heading into the ring to act as free points.

After killing off the fat man, Gu Ding selected his next opponent, who was a strong man ranking somewhere around the 7000s. Out of the many challengers, this man’s ranking was second only to the fat man.

After the strong man walked onto the stage, he smiled bitterly. He had once challenged the fat man too, and he was annihilated. Back then, he did not get a chance to fight back at all. Now he faced Gu Ding, who had killed off the fat man in one swift move, so he knew he did not stand a chance. He cursed himself silently for acting brashly. He thought it would be an easy win when he clicked the challenge button. He did not expect his opponent to not only not be as soft as a persimmon, but instead be as tough as nails.

Nevertheless, after sending the challenge request, you could not back out unless the request is rejected by your opponent. He only knew that Gu Ding had accepted his challenge after he stepped into the ring.

“I’ll just die and be reincarnated quickly!” The strong man made up his mind. He thought about the about the many others who, like him, had chosen to challenge Gu Ding on impulse as well, and it made him feel a little better.

As these thoughts were passing through the strong man’s mind, it only took split second for the deed to be done. He did not spend a lot of time in the ring. When he rushed toward Gu Ding, he was killed with a single punch. The whole process did not take more than five seconds.

“Hey, muscleman. How does it feel to be knocked out instantly?” Someone asked in a mocking tone.

The strong man looked over to see that it was the fat man. “Didn’t the same thing happen to you, fatty? The last time we fought, you abused me pretty terribly. I see you finally got what you deserved.”

“That kid looks so young, who would have thought him to be so powerful? It’s almost as if he had taken a Strength Enhancing Pill.” The fat man was smiling as if he did not mind the fact that he had lost the fight. He had spent quite some time in the Arena and had participated in more than 7000 competitions. Therefore, his numerous encounters with all kinds of opponents, coupled with his optimistic nature, ensured that his mind was already at peace.

“I was being too brash as well. I should have watched one of the opponent’s battle videos first.” The strong man smiled bitterly. He, like Gu Ding, usually took the more offensive route. He was used to using strong attacks to crush his opponents. This time, however, he was the one who was crushed, and by an opponent who was a youngster. He found this a little hard to accept.

Seeing the strong man’s expressions, it was as if the fat man knew what he was thinking. “Don’t think too much about it, this kid is a freak. The Arts he used was terrifying, he might even be a super genius trained by the Universal Federation Government. In the future, he might even become as well-known as Kohld Blood.”

“I wonder what all the youngsters are eating nowadays, they’re all so fierce.” The strong man could not help but sigh and say, “I heard some news recently that Kohld Blood encountered a commodore from the Universal Federation Government on the new route. The two of them fought for a day, and it ended with the commodore running away in defeat.”

At that moment, Gu Ding was in the ring defeating many opponents continuously. Just as he was approaching his 20th consecutive win, he heard Neptune speak.

“There was some big news just now. Kohld Blood encountered a commodore on the new route. The two of them had a huge fight and it ended when the commodore running away after being defeated. Based on what was in the video, the commodore was almost killed, but he managed to escape using some special tactics. Meanwhile, Kohld Blood only sustained some minor injuries. Seems like his danger level has increased again, so I reckon the bounty on him will increase again very soon.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Ding grew more eager. Until now, he still had not had a bounty put on him yet. He was looking forward to seeing the bounty on his head being spread the way Kohld Blood’s was.

Gu Ding’s opponents were sent into the ring one by one, and they were then killed on the spot, one after the other.

He easily achieved 20 consecutive wins. Gu Ding was unstoppable, and he quickly attained 30 consecutive wins, then 40 consecutive wins, 50 consecutive wins, 60 consecutive wins, 70 consecutive wins…

As he stood there waiting for the 80th round, he saw that no one else was brought into the ring.

When they saw the fat man getting killed instantly, there were already 60 people who have pressed the challenge button and were unable to revoke their challenge. However, when the people behind them who were thinking about challenging Gu Ding saw the live footage of him in the ring, they immediately withdrew their hands from the challenge button and secretly breathed a sigh of relief that they had been slow to hit the button.

“Is there no one else?” Gu Ding raised his brow. “If that’s the case, I’ll only be getting the points for 70 consecutive wins. It seems like I’ll have to wait until I come again next time.”

The points gathered for less than 100 consecutive wins were calculated according to every 10 consecutive wins. This meant that the number of consecutive wins had to be 10, 20, 30, etc. to obtain the accumulated points for consecutive wins. If Gu Ding had completed the 80th round, he could have obtained the points for 80 consecutive wins, which was 3240 points. However, Gu Ding had only reached his 79th round, so he only obtained the accumulated points for 70 consecutive wins in addition to the points gathered from round 71 to 79, which was an additional nine points. Therefore, in total, he had only gained 2494 points.

“Just quit, Gu Ding. Your spaceship has encountered some problems.” Neptune sounded a bit unsettled.

“Is there a malfunction?” When he heard Neptune’s tone, Gu Ding felt a little uneasy.

“It’s not a malfunction, it has encountered the aftermath of an interstellar storm.” Neptune’s tone began to sound a little urgent. “I’m going to help you cut the link. Otherwise, if the spaceship is hit, the electromagnetic influence will cause damage to your spirit.”

As Neptune said this, he cut Gu Ding’s link to the Arena.

The spectators in the Arena who were watching Gu Ding were surprised when he suddenly disappeared from the ring on his 80th round. They all assumed that Gu Ding would at least finish the 80th round and get the accumulated points for the consecutive wins. Even though there was no one left to challenge at that moment, if he waited a little longer, the system would have automatically assigned an opponent to him. The never expected Gu Ding to retreat so suddenly.

“What happened? Why did he suddenly get disconnected?” In the monitoring room backstage, a tall, brawny man in a tuxedo frowned slightly when he saw what happened.

“It’s not a system malfunction. I reckon something urgent happened and he had to quit the Arena suddenly.” After checking the system, a technician found out that Gu Ding had quit on his own accord.

“This kid…” The man in the tuxedo did not expect this to happen.

Meanwhile, Gu Ding, who had just returned to reality, was about to face a difficult trial.
