Chapter 123

The challenge stage was round, with a diameter of 1,000 meters.

The ground was made of flat maroon granite. If one did not look carefully, it would be easy to mistake it for the magma surface.

Ling Yi and his opponent each stood on one side. The two of them were thirty meters apart.

Because the challenge stage's protective shield eliminated all external noises, it was very quiet inside. Even though they were 30 meters apart, they could still hear each other's voices quite well.

"You make the first move, or you won't have the chance later." The player who was ranked 101 said.

He looked at the challenger notification that had just flashed by, and his face under the mask frowned slightly.

'01? Ha, looks like another 01 fan…'

And opposite him.

Ling Yi didn't get angry when he heard what his opponent said.

Compared to that, he was more concerned about the masked man.

This reminded him of the "advice of an old player" he had seen before.

In the crowded arena, it's best not to reveal your true appearance. Because this meant that your true strength would be seen by many people.

Even if players didn't come to the PvP Hall, they could still watch the battle from a distance.

All they had to do was to open the viewing area of the arena and all the dueling platforms would appear on it. They could watch the battle with just a click.

In other words, although there were only a few thousand people around Ling Yi's stage, there might be tens of thousands of people watching his stage from the main world!

"You're letting me make the first move?" Ling Yi laughed lightly and didn't waste any time. He summoned his light wind and began to spin it around his opponent.

He died in less than a second.

However, there had always been an unspoken rule in the arena that one should not hit the other's face, and even if one hit the face, one should not break the mask. Therefore, he deliberately avoided the mask.

[Congratulations on your victory! Your ranking has risen to 101!]

[PvP points +1]

Then, he challenged the player who was ranked 11th.

And, he easily won with another one-shot kill.

[Congratulations on your victory! Your ranking has risen to 11th!]

[PvP points +1]

In the end, he only had one chance left to challenge, and without a doubt, he chose to challenge the player ranked first.

After about five seconds, he was sent to another stage.

[01 VS Akas]

The duel information flashed by.

This time, Ling Yi didn't make a move immediately. Instead, he activated his [Eye of Truth] to take a look at his opponent's attributes.

What kind of panel did the strongest level 39 player in the world have?

How big was the gap between them?

[Name: Akas (LV39)]

[Gender: Male]

[Age: 26 (married)]

[Talent: Shooting range increase]

[Attributes: strength 24, mana 223, agility 102, Endurance 35, physique 165]

[Skills: Poison Mist (1 Star), Flame Arrow Rain (5 Star), Shadow Fiend Summoning (8 Star), Healing (4 Star), Accelerated Leap (6 Star), Sharp Arrow (6 Star), Advanced Precision (5 Star) (Passive)]

[Support Skills: Earth Shield (B), Spatial Blade (B), Flying Sand (B)]

[Equipped Treasure: Spirit-Gathering Ring (A)]

[Soulbinding Weapon: Poison Magic Ball (B)]

[Current Status: Healthy]

[Current Mood: Depressed]

'Eh? He's really good.'

If he wasn't wrong, this guy was most likely a core player trained by some organization.

He could see just by looking at the A-grade treasure he had.

For most players at this level, they would be proud if they had a D-grade treasure, so it was easy to imagine if they had an A-grade treasure.

'His attributes are very high too.'

Looking at the opponent's attributes, Ling Yi subconsciously compared himself to the opponent.

Strength 24, mana 223, agility 102, endurance 35, physique 165

— 549 in total

Strength 38, mana 100, agility 135, Endurance 3, physique 263

— 539 in total

If he didn't take into account the 1,000 points of mana that he had copied, his total attribute points were 10 points lower than his opponent's.

'If that's the case, I don't have much of an advantage in terms of attributes at the moment. It's all because I have a whole set of insane skills…'

'But, once I spend these 150 points, I'll really have an advantage over those who have never taken an attribute pill.'

This time, apart from getting first place in the arena, there were also other things that he could do.

Naturally, he still had the thought of comparing himself with others to determine what level he was in the player community.

The evaluation of "an intermediate map powerhouse with overwhelming strength" on his personal panel was too normal!

Just as Ling Yi turned back to look at his opponent's face, Akas was not in a hurry to make a move.

Akas, on the other hand, was sighing about his bad luck.

'I didn't expect that the higher-ups would be jealous of my talent.'

'Not only is that perfect suggestion unnecessary, but you're even asking me to go home and rest? *Sigh* This is really…'

Akas was as smart as ever.

However, when it came to this matter, his intelligence would once again drop to the point where he was even worse than an ordinary person.

This was something he couldn't have noticed on his own.

While he was sighing to himself, Akas reminded himself that he was in the middle of a battle. He immediately put his thoughts aside and looked up at his opponent in the distance.

As soon as he saw the other party's blurry face and figure, Akas was stunned for a moment before he quickly reacted and exclaimed, "You're 01!?"

"The real 01?!"

He had been discussing the plan to find 01 for the past two days, so he could now recite the information on this guy backwards.

The "01" on the challenger list had a blurry figure, surely to mask their identity, and the fact that he had the strength that could challenge him in the top 100, there weren't a lot of people in the world who could tick all the boxes.

Ling Yi ignored him.

Instead, he drove the wind and began to launch concentrated attacks on him.

His opponent's vitality was only 165, but he was level 39, and his vitality and combat power were around 7,000, which wasn't any much lower than his.

His agility and combat power were also extremely close to his.

He was almost as tanked and as fast as him.

In addition, Akas had Earth Shield, a defensive skill that could block attacks, so Ling Yi needed to be prepared.

This wouldn't be an easy fight.

After the two parties fought for a while and retreated, Ling Yi smiled and said, "As expected of the strongest level 39 player in the world. He's not easy to deal with."

"Stop it!" Akas was not wearing a mask, so his fair face that was filled with caution was on display. "You've only displayed your wind control and teleportation abilities so far. Clearly, you haven't displayed your true strength yet."

"If you had used the power you used to defeat the Beast King, I would have been defeated long ago."

In the brief exchange of blows, judging by his opponent's ease, Akas was convinced that he was really facing the real 01!

Akas knew that he would definitely lose this battle. However, if he could force the other party to use more of his tricks, it would be considered a contribution to the world.

Ling Yi only smiled to himself.

Right now, there might be many people watching them fight in the main world. How could he foolishly reveal his trump card?

He immediately continued to use the [Aeolus' Call] to fight.

Ten minutes later…

With [Aeolus' Call]'s ability to control the wind and teleport, he finally defeated Akas.
