Chapter 122

"Huh? A special event?" Ling Yi was slightly surprised.

The activities on God's Path were arranged from small to big ordinary activities and full-blown large-scale events. This event was one of those large-scale activities.

Every district might have normal events every day, while large-scale events would only occur once in a while. As for huge events like this one…

As far as he knew, it only appeared once every four years!

"Another major event?!" Lin Shurou said excitedly as she entered the door. When she saw the notification a few moments ago, there was only joy on her face.

"What great timing! I've just restored my player identity, and now there's an event. Maybe with this, I can catch up with the players who were in the same batch as us last year!"

"Is this event really that great??" Ling Yi asked in surprise.

"Of course it is!" Lin Shurou came to his side and sat down. "The special event is the highest level event on the God's Path. The rewards are very, very good!" She said excitedly that Ling Yi could almost see the fire in her blue eyes.

"Other events aside, we only have 10 in the world right now… No, nine divine artifacts. These nine divine artifacts were all obtained from these major events."

"And those S-grade items and treasures that even the big shots are envious of are all obtained from the major events of the past!"

Ling Yi only knew what the special event was about, but he didn't know much about the rewards.

Now that he heard Lin Shurou's explanation, he was shocked, but at the same time, he quickly became serious.

When Lin Shurou went into the kitchen to prepare lunch, he quickly logged into the forum.

He had wanted to look up more about the major events in the past, but he didn't expect a post titled [Details of Major Events in the Past] to be pushed to the front page.

"As expected, there's strength in numbers."

He quickly clicked on it to check.

[Year 00, The Scarlet Feast]

[Year 04, The Tide of the Immensity Sea]

[Year 08, Mount Doom]

[Year 12, Wind Fire Mountain Forest]

[Year 16, The Split Earth]

He looked through all the major events in the past and realized that they all share the same feature.

They would use the event currency dropped from killing monsters to exchange for items in the Event Store.

'Then it seems that this time is no exception.'

He scrolled down the forum, and in the comments section, he found that the players were discussing another detail that he had not noticed.

[Strange, why can ordinary people see God's Path notification this time?]

[I mean the event announcement clearly said that even non-players have to be prepared. What does that mean? Could it be that ordinary people can also participate in this event?]

[They can't enter God's Path, so how are they going to participate? Do you think that the event will be held in the main world?]

[How is that possible? How could God's Path possibly arrange an event in the main world?]

[Then what's going on?!]

[…]

Ling Yi exited the thread and found that there were many other threads discussing this detail.

Of course.

The hot search was still the same as yesterday, all about him completing the rescue mission alone.

It was estimated that it would take a few days for the popularity to slowly subside.

'Mm… Whatever, we'll know tomorrow.'

After a moment of silence, Ling Yi decided to give up on thinking.

…

After the newbie trial ended, the arena function would be officially opened.

A place where players can enter and battle with other players.

There was a section for every ten levels, and winning a battle would increase one's ranking.

The higher one's ranking was, the more points one could obtain every day. At the same time, he could exchange for more powerful skills, weapons, and gold coins in the Competition Store.

Now, Ling Yi, who finally had some free time, finally had the time to play in the arena.

After opening the effects of the [Faceless Mask] in his rucksack, he called out to the air in front of him,

"God's Path, I want to enter the arena's hall,"

A ring of light as hot as fire appeared in front of him, creating a portal.

Ling Yi promptly walked in, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared on a huge round platform.

There was a wooden sign in front of him, which read—

[Level Range: 30 – 39]

"Hehe." Ling Yi grinned.?'First place will soon be mine,'

The main reason why he hadn't leveled up yet, was so that he could get more exp from killing higher-level monsters.

The second reason was that he wanted to be the first place in this level range, as well as in every other range in the future!

The first place in the 30 – 39 ranking, the first place in the 40 – 49 ranking, the first place in the 50 – 59 ranking…

He had once read on the forum that some high-level players had said that only by gathering all five first-place players would they be qualified to step on the "Road of Invincibility " and advance to a higher level!

Currently, the strongest players in the world, such as Shenxia's six divine pillars, White Eagle's five war emperors, Bei Xiong's four generals of daybreak, and so on, were all people who had embarked on the "Road to Invincibility," and their combat power far exceeded that of other players!

Therefore, if Ling Yi wanted to catch up to them, he himself would have to step on the Road to Invincibility.

This was like a predecessor rolling up the scroll. If you didn't roll up with them, you wouldn't be able to catch up with them.

It was the same from another perspective. If he couldn't even do what these people could, how could he catch up to them?

He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. Now it's not the time to focus on this.

He walked down from the tall round stage and began to sway between the challenge stages.

This was a level 30~39 PvP Hall with a total of 10,00 challenge platforms.

It was very simple for players to fight with others. All they had to do was walk up the challenge stage.

There were many staircases and seats around the stage for people to rest and watch other players.

The pathway that separated the challenge stages was as high as a city wall. The players on the pathway only needed to lower their heads slightly to see the entire challenge stage below.

The walkway was crowded with players.

There's a powerful summoner on challenge stage No. 77. He summoned five fire bears in two seconds!

"Waa! The skill that guy used looks so powerful! Did anyone know which monster you can get that skill from? I also want to get one!"

"Selling 3 Star Skills at a low price~"

"…"

Ling Yi didn't want to watch the battle right now. He just wanted to quickly replace the player who was currently in first place and become the new winner.

Without any dally, he called up the leaderboard, clicked on the player at the top of the leaderboard, and sent a challenge request.

However, a notification suddenly popped up in front of him.

[Prompt: Only the top 100 players can challenge the top 10 players.]

Seeing this, he pulled up the leaderboard and chose the 11th place to apply for a challenge.

[Prompt: Only the top 1,000 players can challenge the top 100 players.]

Ling Yi raised his eyebrows.

He scrolled down the list and found the player ranked 101 and applied for a challenge.

[Challenge has been applied. Waiting for a response.]

"…This is good too."

'Yes.'?Ling Yi nodded.?'When I become number one in the future, at least no random person will be able to challenge me.'

He didn't know how many levels 30 to 39 players there were around the world, but there were at least tens of millions of them.

If any random person could apply for a challenge, then just the application information alone would be enough to annoy him to death.

[The other party has rejected the challenge and left you a message: [I'm going to the toilet. Give me five minutes.]

Ling Yi was speechless.

Each player only had three chances to challenge and reject a challenge every day.

When the number of uses was used up, they wouldn't be able to apply for a challenge or reject other people's challenges.

There was a one-minute gap between each application, so Ling Yi could only wait.

After about five minutes, he applied again.

There was no reply this time, but instead, he was quickly sent to one of the challenge stages!
