Chapter 784 230: Record-Breaking, Special Opportunity (Part 6)
Boom!
The Iron Barbarian was sent flying by this punch, the Scale Armor on his chest instantly shattering, with blood gushing out.
The Bone Wings drooped powerlessly, and his body traced an arc in the air, finally crashing heavily at the edge of the arena.
Phase Kill stood in place, slowly withdrawing his fist.
He looked up at the Iron Barbarian, only to see it trembling and standing up, its gaze filled with endless killing intent.
But Phase Kill just laughed.
Then the Iron Barbarian suddenly looked down at its chest, and was shocked to find a huge bloody hole in its chest, piercing through the body.
The vision was like the curtain closing at the end of a stage play, gradually swallowed by Darkness.
Boom!
The Iron Barbarian fell to the ground with a crash, its vitality quietly fading away.
The battle was over, and the Gang Qi on Phase Kill also dissipated, then he plopped down on the ground, baring his teeth in pain:
"Really hurts."
He summoned the streaming room, it was as lively as a festival.
The screen was filled with rewards and cheers, old fans and new fans all spamming "new record".
"Hahaha." Watching the barrage, Phase Kill who had successfully broken the record laughed happily, then nodded and said:
"Fighting, awesome."
Immediately the barrage followed along: Fighting, awesome!
The excitement in the streaming room surged into the top three of the trending charts, with more and more players pouring into the live room, all wanting to see what exactly happened there.
"7 wins."
The Barbarian Slave's voice, devoid of emotion, echoed above the arena.
Phase Kill was then transported to the eighth level of the Competition Ladder.
During the reward phase, Phase Kill obtained two High-level Martial Soul Pearls, with a total value of 70,000 sacrificial power+.
This was only part of the earnings.
He glanced at the streaming room, the rewards had already broken the ten thousand sacrificial power mark, big profit.
Tossing the soul balls into the Space Bag, he summoned the shop to purchase a High-level Recovery Potion, gulping it down.
The difficulty of the 8-win challenge increased exponentially.
But he still decided to give it his all, even though the odds were against him.
As time passed, with the health bar fully restored, Phase Kill took out a Physical Potion ready to drink.
At this moment, the Barbarian Slave's voice echoed in the room:
"Your performance is good, there's an opportunity for you, want it?"
Phase Kill lowered his raised head, put down the Physical Potion in his hand, and curiously asked:
"What do you mean?"
"Every warrior in the Ancient God Arena is a tool to please the Ancient God, but the value of different tools varies significantly. The warriors with extreme fighting desires bring the most joy to the Ancient God, every fight of yours burns with fighting desire, you're a good pleasing tool, hence you're given an opportunity to become stronger."
Upon hearing these words, Phase Kill was taken aback.
The viewpoint mentioned by the Barbarian Slave, he had seen it on the forum.
A post had long appeared on the forum, published by a Strategy Guide player after seeking Guidance.
It detailed the operating principles of the Ancient God Arena.
It stated that every warrior entering the Ancient God Arena essentially becomes a machine that continuously produces "Fighting Soul Power".
Every battle generates Rule Energy for the Ancient God.
As for the output, besides being influenced by the strength of both duelists, it's also affected by their Willpower, fighting desire, and other emotional factors.
Thus, the Ancient God most desires warriors with both combat power and strong Willpower and fighting desire.
The least favorable are those warriors who bring fear to the battle.
Thinking of this, images of his every fight in the arena flashed in his mind.
Those scenes passed by like a revolving lantern, the collisions of fists meeting flesh, life-and-death evasions… in every battle, his emotions were fiery and pure, like burning flames.
This was evidently the reason he was valued.
But what he was curious about was what exactly the opportunity mentioned by the Barbarian Slave was.
"Barbarian Slave, specifically, what opportunity are you talking about?"
Saying this, Phase Kill gulped down the Physical Potion in his hand.
"You have a chance to receive temporary training from a Champion Fighter, how much you grow depends on your ability to comprehend, but ultimately you must return to the arena, to continue with round after round of duels… it can be clear that you will most likely still die in battle, the training is just so that you can perform better in the following few encounters."
The Barbarian Slave's answer reminded Phase Kill of a video that once topped the forum's trending list.
The powerful figure in the video left an indelible impression in his mind.
Every time he recalls it, it fills him with blood-boiling passion.
That figure had a name, Champion Fighter: Sky Collapse.
A warrior with unparalleled physical Strength.
He once, with sheer flesh and blood, confronted the Elemental Torrent released by twelve warriors of the Ascension Clan.
In the video, every punch of the Champion Fighter contained the weight of mountains and rivers, the majesty of Gods, wherever the punch wind reached, space was torn with fine cracks.
Allowing players to witness for the first time what high-level combat looks like.
The physical Strength demonstrated by the Champion Fighter in this battle left players in awe.
Amidst the battle, the surge of Qi-Blood like a torrent, smashing the Elemental Torrent of the Ascension Clan, his combat style supremely domineering, ignoring all Elemental Attacks, pushing everything aside with his robust physique, showcasing the ultimate realm of breaking all strategies with sheer Strength.
The Champion Fighter communicated to players through his own strength: Strength is truth, the flesh invincible, enough to crush everything.
At the end of the video, the mighty Ascension Clan had no choice but to retreat.
And the Champion Fighter stood proudly above the battlefield, like an immovable mountain.
Before the appearance of this segment, among the various factions of the Player Corps, the Melee Faction always had the fewest participants.
But due to the performance of the Champion Fighter, there was a short-term surge.
He let players see the potential of the Melee Faction, imagining themselves, in the future, possessing combat prowess akin to that of a Champion Fighter, crossing the Infinite Ocean with a robust physique, scaling the highest peaks, tearing apart space barriers, becoming a true Peak strongman.
The imagined future caused the heat of the Melee Faction to skyrocket.
Many players began to replan their Star Vein combinations, some even abandoned their Magic Soul, opting instead to enhance their Physical fitness with Life Soul.
Many players, swayed by the arduous early phase experience of the Melee gameplay, firmly decided not to change their Star Vein because of this.
It can be said that the Strength demonstrated by the Champion Fighter was not just a visual feast but also a soul-stirring experience for the players.
It opened a new world door for players, showing them the Infinite possibilities of physical Strength.
It also temporarily altered the development ecosystem of the Player Corps system, giving Melee Faction players a clear direction to ascend in the future.
At that time, Phase Kill rewatched that video dozens of times.
It filled him with boiling passion, the sense of immersion at its peak.
As if he himself was the invincible figure crashing through the Elemental Torrent.
In his heart, a seed of becoming a Champion Fighter, even surpassing the Champion Fighter, and challenging the Ancient God was planted.
Upon hearing the Barbarian Slave say he had the opportunity to receive training from a Champion Fighter.
In his mind, Phase Kill was already clear about his answer.
Raising his head, he looked at the ceiling of the room, smilingly nodded:
"Barbarian Slave, I accept."
