400: I will make new history
“Almost?”
“What do you mean, almost?”
Number 58 instantly thought of a possibility, one that shouldn’t appear on Chen Du, but fit the result.
Instant kill!
“You’re not from the Civilization of the Gloomy Land Territory?”
Chen Du didn’t expect that the other party’s first thought would be this. It just goes to show that prejudice in people’s hearts is a great mountain!
The match time wouldn’t lie. Finishing so quickly meant either no opponent or an instant kill.
As an Alien from the Gloomy Land Territory, Chen Du instantly killing his opponent was indeed unbelievable from the other party’s perspective.
However, whether the other party believed it or not, what did it matter?
Facing the repeated questioning, Chen Du didn’t answer. Instead, just like before, he continued to watch the matches of the other Aliens.
He had already given the answer; believing it or not was up to them.
Chen Du found that watching so many different Alien battles at once, these battle scenes subtly stirred something within him. Chen Du was very familiar with this feeling.
It was the feeling of a Martial Skill accumulating for a long time without progress before finally breaking through. However, his Martial Skill was improving every day. It could only be said that with the efforts of the Zhan Zhan Fruit and Crystal Clone,
his talent in Martial Skill could no longer be simply described as Genius, but terrifying!
If he had to add a word after it, it would be “as such”!
Terrifying as such!
His Martial Skill talent had gradually reached a level that even Chen Du himself found somewhat terrifying, completely exceeding the growth trajectory provided by the High Martial Civilization’s Technology Martial Hall.
One must know that every 1% in Second-Order Martial Skill was a small Bottleneck, and at every stage, Sky Soaring Warriors stopped their progress for life. Yet, he was improving even faster than he did in the first order!
Seeing Chen Du remain silent, acting like a master, Number 58 didn’t press further.
After a while, the familiar voice of the staff member came again:
“The first round of eliminations in the preliminary stage has ended. The second round begins now.”
“The second round will adopt a completely random mode. The numbers I read out below are the results of our ball draw after the first round. Contestants, please enter the corresponding venues according to the numbers I read out.”
“Number 1 VS Number 14… Number 42 VS Number 73… Number 58 VS Number 96…”
Chen Du’s gaze lowered slightly, and he glanced at the left eye with his peripheral vision. The other party also happened to look over, and the two smiled at each other.
Neither of them expected such a coincidence.
The two went onto the stage together, walking to their corresponding battle zone. The Warden, just like before, first confirmed both parties’ information before the fight to prevent ringers.
It was only at this moment that Chen Du learned the other party’s name was “Xu Xiu.”
“Looking-Through Territory!”
“That person is actually from Looking-Through Territory, one of the five strongest Territories!”
An audience member below the stage exclaimed in surprise.
“Hmph, don’t make such a fuss. The only strong one from Looking-Through Territory this time is Charon Civilization. He’s from Show Hair Civilization. A strong Territory doesn’t mean he’s strong!”
“That’s true, but a strong Territory means the Civilizations within it will also be relatively stronger, that’s for sure. In terms of Territory, this Xu Xiu from Show Hair Civilization definitely isn’t weak.”
“And his opponent is actually a Shushu Civilization from the Gloomy Land Territory. How can such a weak Territory dare to participate in the Heroes Assembly? He’s really participating! He must have gotten a bye in the first round.”
“Come on, brothers, want to start a round?”
Below each match, there was a small group of people gambling for fun.
“I’m not lying to you guys. I watched the first match of this Shushu Civilization. He didn’t get a bye; he instantly killed the Toad Civilization from Source Water Territory.”
“The Gloomy Land Territory is indeed weak, but he is strong!”
“As for how strong… shall we have a go?”
“I’ve heard this kind of rhetoric too many times. Don’t inflate the value of that Shushu Civilization. I bet on the Show Hair Civilization to win!”
“The Gloomy Land is recognized as the weakest Territory, without a doubt. How could a Civilization from there possibly win against Looking-Through Territory, one of the strongest Territories?”
“His victory in the first match only means he met a weak opponent. Wanting to win the second match? That’s ridiculous!”
“That makes sense, I’m in!”
A bunch of follow-the-leader Aliens put all their commonly used resources on the Show Hair Civilization side. The Alien who started the betting smiled slightly at this.
He hadn’t watched the Show Hair Civilization’s battle, but he had watched Chen Du’s battle the whole way through. How could a Genius of Second-Order Martial Skill lose so easily?
“Since you all bet on Show Hair Civilization, then I’ll be giving everyone some warmth!”
“I bet on Shushu Civilization!”
… “Begin!”
With a command from the Warden, Xu Xiu immediately launched an attack. His hair moved without wind, condensing into a large net above his head, like a rat trap, covering Chen Du.
And Chen Du couldn’t feel any extra energy from these strands of hair, which meant that these hairs were not manipulated or a result of some ability.
Chen Du understood this. No wonder he had felt the other party’s hair was strange before. Now he finally understood.
The hair of this Show Hair Civilization was like hands and feet; it wasn’t the kind of hair on his own head.
Instead, it was like his own hands, capable of many different movements. The other party’s hair was like this, and even more varied.
Xu Xiu wasn’t idle either, attacking Chen Du with both his hair and himself, as if multitasking.
Chen Du’s weapon at this time was not a mace, but a whip.
No one here recognized Shushu Civilization, so there was no need to maintain that persona.
The reason he used a whip instead of a sword was that Chen Du was afraid of being recognized by Prophet Civilization. This was a technique of High Martial Civilization, although the probability was extremely low.
Chen Du’s usual training was not limited to just the sword. To improve, he needed to use many different weapons to feel their differences.
The mace was too rigid and lacked flexibility, which made Chen Du a bit unaccustomed, so he chose a weapon closer to a sword but less likely to cause accidental death: the whip.
At this moment, Chen Du could only describe the opponent’s attack as “two fists are no match for four hands.”
Fortunately, through contact, Chen Du could confirm that the opponent’s strength was not as great as his own, and this inferiority was a clear and significant difference.
Once strength was inferior to the opponent, the next step was simple.
Strength breaks all Dao!
Crack!
With a loud crack of the whip, Chen Du directly shattered the inescapable net woven by the opponent’s hair with a single whip!
… On the other side, below the stage.
An Alien Civilization that looked like a spinning top returned to his Number 17 waiting area.
“Wen Bo, judging by the time, you are the fastest contestant to finish the second round. If nothing unexpected happens, you should be the strongest contestant on Arena Number 3.”
The waiting area and the audience seats behind it were not far, so communication was possible.
However, most of the audience were not interested in the waiting area; they were only interested in the matches on the field.
“Teacher.”
The contestant called Wen Bo turned his head, his eyes filled with a determination like joining a party:
“I will definitely make the name of Botao Civilization appear on the stage of the Heroes Assembly’s top ten.”
“This time, we will never stop at the top hundred.”
“I will create new history!”
