Chapter 306: Chapter 204: Apart from Talent, Can You Be This Strong?_3

The way to boost strength wasn’t through the primary attributes, but through an indirect enhancement.

In the rules of the Endless Challenge, this was highly favored and it was easy to rack up multiple consecutive victories…

For example, someone with an actual strength of 7 billion, but starting from 100 million in attributes, could easily win several hundred matches in a row when pairing with the effects of their traits.

However, this part of the records could easily be filtered out by other records, such as those of the Legendary Shadow.

The remaining Endless Challenge records were still fairly objective.

In the “internal leaderboard” sorted out by the major civilizations,

the current beacon of hope of the Ancient Eon civilization ranked first.

147 consecutive victories.

He achieved this record at the 9th Rank.

At that time, through the Legendary Path collected by the Ancient Eon civilization, he spent a substantial amount of time honing and combining three Legendary Traits, acquiring a strength boost far beyond his basic attributes.

He practically bulldozed his way through, triumphing with ease.

Alas, the more victories he amassed, the more often he encountered Legendary Overlords.

This diminished his Legendary Trait boost, amplifying the gap in attributes, and his winning streak eventually halted at 147.

Even though he advanced to the 10th Rank and even higher ranks later,

the strength of the abyss creatures also kept rising, and the Legendary Overlords he met had mastered even greater powers.

He never managed to surpass his own record—

Of course, this was also related to the heritage of the Ancient Eon civilization.

The paths they had for reliably awakening Legendary Traits were few.

They simply couldn’t gather all nine or ten Legendary Traits at the 9th Rank.

The one ranked second was the current Divine Lord of the Divine Lord Civilization.

145 consecutive victories.

The two victories’ difference meant he wasn’t far behind the beacon of hope of the Ancient Eon civilization, only that his luck wasn’t as good and he encountered more Legendary Overlords.

Ranked third was the current beacon of hope of the Bluegreen Deity civilization.

144 consecutive victories.

The three were almost on the same level.

Further down the ranks were dominated by the hopeful candidates of the three major level 8 civilizations, without a shadow of any other civilizations in sight.

Only below a hundred wins did names from level 7 civilizations start to appear.

This was the essence of a legendary heritage!

However, just now,

a new name squeezed into the records of the three major level 8 civilizations.

[Planet Blue Star, Jiang Chen]

[Consecutive Victories: 100]

[Legendary Victories: 2]

This was a rather delicate figure—

It was well-known that Jiang Chen’s mecha pilot rank was only 3rd Rank, yet he possessed the capability to defeat 8th Rank Legendary Shadows.

If his mecha pilot talent bonus was unrelated to basic attributes,

then embarking on the Endless Challenge would mean starting from the 3rd Rank…

From 3rd Rank to 9th Rank, piling up victories bit by bit, not to mention 100 consecutive wins, even a million consecutive wins would be no issue!

The mere 100 victories today signify that Jiang Chen’s talent involves an attribute boost.

Constrained by the rules of the Endless Challenge, he needed to start from challenges of at least the 7th Rank, or even higher.

In such a scenario,

he still secured 100 victories and squeezed into the rankings among the three major civilizations.

What did this represent?

“Even if we set aside his terrifying talent boost, settling solely based on acquired traits and growth…”

“He actually has a strength increase comparable to a level 8 civilization!?”

A mecha pilot from the Ancient Eon civilization, standing at the entrance of the Endless Deathmatch Arena, stared at this brief record in disbelief.

“…No.”

A companion beside him fell silent for a moment before speaking.

“With over a hundred wins, defeating two Legendary Overlords, at the very least two Legendary Traits are needed to boost him!”

“Our civilization’s mecha pilots would need to be of at least the 8th Rank, or 9th Rank to reach such a level…”

“You must understand…”

“Jiang Chen is 3rd Rank.”

“…”

The Ancient Eon civilization mecha pilot fell silent.

An incredibly terrifying mecha pilot talent could perhaps be explained by good luck or innate strength…

But emerging from a fledgling civilization, yet crushing the double Legendary Traits of a level 8 civilization?

“Is this guy… cheating?”
