Chapter 62: Entering the Top Ten

Translator: Strivon Editor: Strivon

“You….” The person remaining was called Red Ball. He looked at Qin Fen with frustration. It was too much of an injustice that his comrade got killed. They had suppressed their auras for the sake of concealing themselves, and his comrade had been caught unprepared before they were able to fully unleash their true strength. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Qin Fen to win in one or two moves. Everybody was a three-star warrior here.

Qin Fen kept silent for the sake of a few more points. He took a step forward, his body covering a distance of three meters. He openly and honestly got into the starting stance of the Shaolin Arhat Fist.

The death of his comrade made Red Ball more cautious than usual. He stood steady and power immediately coursed through his entire body. He clenches his hands into fists, welcoming the fist that came swinging from Qin Fen. He had extreme confidence in the neo martial art he cultivated in, the Steel War Body, a tenacious art.

Qin Fen’s arms shook slightly for a moment, and Red Ball felt a sudden change within Qin Fen’s move. Its aura had been firm and fierce beyond compare. How did it suddenly turn so bizarre?

In the time it takes for spark to fly off a flint, Red Ball saw a shadow lash out like lightning at an angle that was inconceivable. The target was none other than the vital part of his lower body

How vile! How shameless! What an extremely vile and shameless style of fighting!

Anyone could use all sorts of combat moves that were different, but having two or more fighting styles was something very difficult to accomplish.

Fighting styles were typically gradually cultivated from undergoing long periods of feeling around or having a master’s guidance. They were a sort of aura of power.

It was difficult beyond compare to place two extremely different fighting styles within a single person’s body.

Red Ball never expected that a man would have such a fierce fighting style with momentum akin to thunder in one instant, then have it suddenly change in the next instant to be so underhanded and vile.

Such a change had occurred far too quickly. The most Red Ball could do is follow in his mind as Qin Fen kicked him in the groin. It was already too late for him because of the movements his body had performed earlier.

Bam!

The Steel War Body tempered the vitals of the lower body as well. However, this was still the weakest point of a man’s body. The three-star Steel War Body was incapable of tempering that place into true bones of steel.

Qin Fen’s internal art was the most powerful Dragon Elephant Prajna Art as well. This one kick simply caused Red Ball’s two feet to leave the ground.

With his opponent having lost the support of the earth, Qin Fen already encroached near. He suddenly pulled one of Red Ball’s legs back down to earth, and he smashed Red Ball in the skull with his free left hand. The Flood Fist’s Drawn Arrow Hammer!

Without any suspense at all, Red Ball was immediately determined to be dead by the system.

Qin Fen looked at his score turn to three and became so happy that he needed to calm his breathing for a moment. He quickly walked out toward the main road.

Differences between three-star experts typically weren’t large, and one hit kills were seldomly seen as well. Qin Fen felt that it was fortunate for him to eliminate three opponents like this with ease.

This was especially true for the Steel War Body cultivator. The Steel War Body was known to be the preceding cultivation technique to the ultimate tenacious art of neo martial arts, the Extreme Titanium Body.Its might was above that of even the Iron Mantle and the Golden Bell Shield. Were it not for Qin Fen suddenly switching his fighting styles, it probably wouldn’t have been easy for Qin Fen to tidy things up.

“I got screwed!”

Red Ball, who revived at an unknown place in the War God Arena, clutched his loins with both hands as he thought of the recent fight.

“If that shameless kick hadn’t broken through to my weak point….” Red Ball gnashed his teeth in anger. “I wouldn’t have lost to him! I really got screwed! That opponent actually cultivates in that tough-to-cultivate Dragon Elephant Prajna Art. If it had been anyone else, even if they knew my weakpoint, a single kick wouldn’t have broken through!”

Right now Qin Fen was sprinting quickly within a small plains in the middle of some woods. An hour had passed since the competition began, and he had killed twenty-five foes! He had eliminated most of them through ambushes. Very few were battle victories from frontal clashes.

Three-star warriors weren’t easy to deal with. Even someone as strong as Qin Fen would expend considerable strength to eliminate twenty-fve three-star warriors.

Qin Fen’s goal toward the War God Arena was absolutely clear. He had to win! Anything was fine for the sake of victory. Whether it was an ambush that leads to victory in the end or a victory from a frontal clash, he had to do the utmost to preserve his strength. The War God Arena wasn’t an activity that ended in a mere hour. It was a two-hour long battle of endurance.

More importantly, Qin Fen was very clear that he had yet to attain the apex of three-star strength. He had just entered the three-star level not too long ago. Among all the people in this three-star War God Arena, there ought to be people with greater strength than him. It would be hard to win till the very end if he didn’t conserve his strength.

Another half an hour passed by, and Qin Fen’s score had risen to be forty-five points. His score was already in the top three of today’s War God Arena competition.

With everyone having three-star strength, it was hard to predict who would win out of the slaughter. Even Qin Fen himself felt that it was shocking for him to eliminate forty-five people. Were it not for Butcher’s killing techniques and Gale Riley’s concealment techniques, as well as the switching between Vile King Zeng Yicheng’s underhanded fighting style and a firm and fierce fighting style, it would have been impossible for Qin Fen to achieve this score today.

But he was only in third place after eliminating forty-five people? Qin Fen looked at his ranked score in a bit of astonishment. Just how many people did the top two experts kill? How did they accomplish it? Was it done in group fights?

Among the forty-five people he eliminated, Qin Fen had fought small groups formed from three or four people. When these groups fought, the last killing blow was done by a single person among them. This was to increase that person’s score to be quite high.

The system’s voice resonated above the War God Arena at this time, “The last thirty minutes of the War God Arena has begun. Score calculation will be done differently….”

Qin Fen’s mental state had been quite calm just before, but he completely tensed up in this moment. It didn’t matter who he killed in the first ninety minutes. They would all only give one point for scoring purposes.

However, scoring was different in the last thirty minutes. Killing the person in first place would yield a hundred and ten points! Killing the person in second place would yield ninety points! Killing the person in third points would yield sixty points, killing the person in fourth would yield fifty points, killing the person in fifth would yield forty points, killing the remaining in the top ten would yield thirty points each, killing the remaining in the top one-hundred would yield ten points each, killing the remaining in the top two-hundred would yield five points each, and killing the rest of the people would yield one point each.

There was more! In order to stimulate everyone to even further heights of excitement, the locations of those in the top ten could be found out through using the system if one was also in the top ten. Even if two sides were separated by a thousand mountains and ten thousands rivers, they could make a request with the system and get instantly teleported somewhere within five-hundred meters of their desired opponent. In the end, the system would notify their general position, but it wouldn’t help point out accurate positions. This was to protect those who used concealment techniques.

As for those in the top two-hundred and one-hundred, everyone in the War God Arena would be notified of their positions. It was just that the system wouldn’t give them teleportation privileges.

But those in the top one hundred had the privileges to make requests toward the system. They could find out the locations of anyone in the top ten!

After quickly calming his breathing, Qin Fen immediately found the position of the person in first place. Eliminate this person, and Qin Fen would obtain a hundred and ten points.

“The position of the person in first place has been locked on. Do you want to teleport over?” The system asked.

“Not for now.”
