Rudy had been with Fane for so long in Fane's journey, and no one knew Fane's talents better than Rudy did. With so much talent and skill, Fane was only at 20% compatibility. Rudy could not accept that at all. It felt too absurd!How was that possible?! It was unthinkable! Having low compatibility with the laws meant that it would be very difficult for Fane to master the attributes as he trained. That was because attributes were subsets of the laws. Since it was hard to understand attributes, it meant that Fane would not be able to use high-level techniques at all. That was a natural consequence.Yet, the skills that Fane used were far greater than any ordinary person could imagine. Otherwise, he would never have been able to reach his heights. No one ever managed to defeat Fane.Rudy gulped and blurted in disbelief, "The stone is probably damaged… The results aren't accurate! They can't be!"When everyone around him heard that, everyone laughed in disdain. After all, they knew not
Octavius scoffed and said, "Do you need to ask? I told you you'd pay the price!" Fane calmly continued, "Then, once I'm out of Cloud Valley, I'll participate in the fog battlefield with all of you."It was not just Octavius, but everyone else who heard Fane was stunned as well. What was wrong with this guy? Was he unaware of what he said? Did he forget the results? He wanted to enter Cloud Valley with just 20% compatibility?He even said that he would take part in the fog battlefield with them after coming out of Cloud Valley! Was he crazy?Case was speechless at that, already sure that Fane was crazy.There was no point in wasting his breath on a madman, but it was not like he could just not say anything. He would end up losing his pride if he held back. Case's lips twitched, wanting to rush forward to beat Fane up, but he was forced to hold back due to the laws of the place.He gritted his teeth and said, "Are you crazy? Do you know what you're saying? Everyone saw your result
"Everyone knows of Cloud City's various rules. Just look at how arrogantly he's acting! He probably doesn't think that the fog battlefield is dangerous at all. I think he's just messed up. He doesn't have blind confidence; he's just bragged too much and isn't willing to admit he's wrong."After he said that, a lot of people around the man nodded in agreement. They felt like Fane deep down knew his place yet was stubborn to admit it due to his pride.In the end, they were not allowed to fight without any reason there. No matter how angry the other party got, all they could do was say a few words. Fane already offended them anyway, so he might as well say a bit more and it would not change anything.Case felt like he would just get more frustrated arguing with Fane, but he still did not want to let it drop.Case clenched his fists. "Remember what you've said! Fine, I'll hold you to your word. If you have the ability to get in Cloud Valley…"After he said that, he paused. His lips tw
"Who knows what he's thinking? We've seen what happened anyway, and they're not going to let him off the hook. He's going to suffer now. None of the warriors from the Swelling Tide Continent are going to let him off! They won't rest until they torture this guy to death!""He knew what'll happen but still insisted on facing them head-on. What do you think he's thinking?""Whatever, let's stop guessing. Unless we're him, no one will know what he's thinking. We don't need to know either. After all, he's probably just a madman."Case walked down the stone, and Octavius went up right after that. The results came out very quickly as well. He managed to get his entrance pass in just a few moments.Everyone looked at them with looks of admiration, lamenting that the strong would always remain at the top of the pyramid. When they went through the tests, only one out of a hundred was lucky enough to pass, but those two managed to get it in just one try. Prodigies would always be prodigies, n
Case's lips twitched. He decided to turn away, shooting a look at Octavius. Octavius nodded, and the two of them took their entrance passes and entered Cloud Valley. Only Jimmy was left behind, facing Fane.Everyone looked at them, amused.Looking at the three men, some people felt like Fane was shooting his foot. The man surely did not expect anyone to stay and keep an eye on him.In truth, Fane did not even think about that at all. Since someone was there to look at him, he would simply allow it. It was not troublesome, anyway.Fane said calmly, "You can follow me if you want, but don't start talking nonsense. I don't have the time to waste on you."After saying that, Fane left without turning around. The Killing Illusion Array was right on the other side.Jimmy's lips twitched, wanting to ridicule Fane, but he did not want to be irritated in the process. Thus, he swallowed his words and followed behind, going toward the Killing Illusion Array. At that moment, everyone started
The moment Rudy saw only two crystals lit up on the stone, he was stunned. He could not believe what he was seeing at all. After all, his experiences were far more convincing than anything else, so he found it hard to accept the results that the stone showed.Nonetheless, everyone had a point—the creator of the stone was the same person who created the Whirling World. Even if everyone there was wrong, that ancient hero could not be. Otherwise, he would never have been able to make the Whirling World.The world was able to host innumerable warriors, too.Those conflicting feelings continued the whole time, causing Rudy's mind to feel scrambled. He did not know whether or not to believe the stone.However, his past experiences told him that Fane's results could not be that bad. There were nine crystals on the stone, and Fane would have at least lit up eight of those crystals. Only that would reflect Fane's skills.Fane smiled, saying calmly, "The stone wasn't wrong. I do have twenty
The sharp-nosed man put up two fingers. "Two lower ultimate god-rank techniques at the first stage! Three upper earth-rank techniques! It looks like a lot, but it's not that hard!"You can slowly challenge a lower ultimate god-rank technique before challenging an upper ultimate god-rank technique. If you do that, the third stage will be very easy! You just need to have enough focus and attention on the first stage!"The small-eared man started to look like he agreed with some of what the sharp-nosed man said, but he refused to admit he was wrong and thus stubbornly said, "The first stage should be the hardest, but I think…"Before he could finish, the sharp-nosed man interrupted, "Just shut up! Just ask anyone here. Who thinks the first stage is the hardest?! Why are you arguing with me? Stop trying to be smart. Even when you lose, you refuse to admit it!"Don't forget, you can only take part in the Killing Illusion Array three times. You've already wasted two chances, and you only
Fane smiled and continued, "The third stage is even harder, needing you to kill two illusions with the first stage of lower ultimate god-rank techniques and three with upper earth-rank techniques."Fane then put up two fingers. "The second stage is more than twice as hard as the sixth. You need to kill three illusions with lower ultimate god-rank techniques."Rudy's lips twitched. In truth, if it was just one of them, the skill ceiling would not be that high. After all, most of the warriors gathered in Cloud City were not weak. However, the challengers need to face three illusions with lower ultimate god-rank techniques at the same time! The spike of difficulty was too high!Quite a few of them failed at the second stage, let alone the first stage.Fane said, "Actually, I feel like the first stage isn't as hard as I thought. The challengers only need to defeat two illusions that have gotten their lower ultimate god-rank techniques to the second stage." Rudy's lips twitched, sayin
