Chapter 2470 The Arena
Fang Heng looked at the game prompt that appeared on his retina, then turned to the halfling beside him and asked, “I heard that participating in the White Abyss Arena can earn rewards?”
“Yes, we offer generous prizes for the participants.”
“Are there dimensional cores?”
The halfling tapped on a pad, searched for a moment, and then nodded. “Yes, there are dimensional cores available, but they are extremely valuable. You need to be an SSS-rank competitor to be allowed to exchange for them.”
High-tier rewards…
Interesting…
Fang Heng glanced at Simone.
Simone hadn’t used his full strength in the match. With his abilities, could he advance to an SSS-level competitor?
Fang Heng pondered for a moment.
He would have to rely on himself.
“Halfling, I’m feeling a bit eager as well. Register me as a competitor and arrange for me to fight as soon as possible.”
“Sure, of course,” the halfling replied quickly, inputting the relevant information on the pad. “I’ve registered you. The next available match is in five minutes, at Arena No. 20, located on the 14th floor. Should I escort you there?”
“No, that won’t be necessary. You stay here with Simone. I can handle it on my own.”
…
Five hours later.
Simone, exhausted, leaped off the arena.
His race was naturally endowed with an exceptional self-healing ability, so ordinary wounds could heal on their own without treatment.
However, the intense five-hour battle had taken its toll. Especially as the fights continued, each opponent had unique skills, and it was easy to be caught off guard.
The continuous physical damage had strained his recovery ability, and his stamina had been significantly depleted.
The halfling, waiting at the sidelines, hurried over with a pad in hand when Simone came down from the arena. “Mr. Simone, congratulations on another victory. Your current score has reached 5,334 points. Congratulations, you’ve successfully advanced to S-level. Your rights have been further enhanced, and your next match has been scheduled. Due to the S-level match scheduling, your next fight will start in 1 hour and 12 minutes.”
Queueing?
Simone frowned upon hearing this.
The wait time was too long!
Even if he won every match, how long would it take to reach SSS-level?
“Can it be expedited?”
“Sorry, that’s the arena’s matchmaking rule. Additionally, your opponents also need preparation time.”
The halfling checked the pad and nodded, “Also, you’ve fought in 23 consecutive matches. I recommend you go to the medical area for a full-body checkup and professional guidance to accelerate your recovery. We also offer massages and other services…”
“No need. I just need a quiet room.”
“Understood. Since you’ve advanced to S-level, you have your own lounge in the Tower of the White Abyss. I’ll take you there now.”
“Alright.”
Simone looked around and noticed Fang Heng was missing. He asked, “By the way, where is my friend?”
“Your friend?”
The halfling glanced at the pad and nodded, “Your friend, Fang Bai, currently has a score of 12,328 points. He successfully advanced to S-level thirty minutes ago. In two minutes, he has an S-level match scheduled in Arena No. 38.”
What…
Simone’s mouth fell open in disbelief.
Mr. Fang was already an S-level competitor?
And his score was even higher than Simone’s?
“Take me there.”
“Certainly, please follow me.”
Soon, under the halfling’s guidance, Simone entered the viewing area on the 15th floor of the arena.
Once a competitor reached the S-level, the audience size in the arena increased significantly. In addition to martial arts enthusiasts, there were also other high-tier competitors present.
For competitors, gaining early insight into an opponent’s strengths and tactics was a huge advantage.
In the stands, Simone quickly spotted Fang Heng standing on the right side of the arena.
The difference was that Mr. Fang was now wearing a mask.
“Beep! The match begins!”
Fang Heng’s opponent was a lizardman.
The lizardman was incredibly agile. As soon as the match started, it launched a swift attack, moving rapidly around the edge of the arena!
After several bursts of acceleration, the lizardman’s speed reached an almost freakish level, leaving behind a series of afterimages. Its speed was so high that even the naked eye could hardly track it!
The other spectators in the stands nodded in approval.
In the S-level matches, the lizardman was a notoriously difficult opponent.
Initially, the lizardman had a terrifying record of 20 consecutive victories when it first entered the S-level trials.
However, its weakness was soon discovered.
The easiest way to win against a lizardman was to suppress it, preventing it from gaining speed. Magic users could use various terrain obstacles to hinder the lizardman’s acceleration, while physical fighters would engage in close combat to prevent the lizardman’s agility from coming into play.
But now, the lizardman’s speed had already reached a high level.
This was proving to be a challenging fight.
Simone looked anxiously at Fang Heng, who was standing still not far away.
Even Simone, after several intense battles, could only see the lizardman’s movements in blurred flashes, as his vision was deceived by the lizardman’s incredible speed.
Simone knew that the lizardman’s actual speed was even faster than what his eyes could perceive.
“Bang!!!”
A heavy impact sound echoed through the arena.
Simone’s pupils contracted, his eyes wide with astonishment.
What?!
Without seeing any clear movement from Fang Heng, the lizardman was seen flying out forcefully after a heavy blow, crashing into the space barrier surrounding the arena!
“Out of bounds! Fang Bai wins!”
Wow~!
Cheers erupted from the stands.
Many of the other S-level competitors began whispering among themselves, clearly impressed by the new arrival’s prowess.
Simone’s eyes also showed surprise.
Mr. Fang.
So impressive!
Just now, Simone hadn’t even seen how Fang Heng made his move!
The lizardman was sent flying without a clear view of Fang Heng’s actions.
Fang Heng easily won the match, jumping down from the arena and picking up the pad that had been left on his chair.
Since there was no halfling accompanying him, he had to handle the operation himself.
The pad quickly displayed a new prompt:
“You have successfully applied and are now queued for the next S-level match. Your opponent has been matched as Det, and your fight will be scheduled in 1 hour and 20 minutes.”
