"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
If they were not able to pass the first stage even with their full might, there was no hope of them passing anyway!A white-robed man shook his head. "Hold on! You should start with the fourth stage to give yourself some confidence. There's no limit to the time you can use during the challenges anyway, so you can recover as you fight! Just deal with the earlier stages first, and you can use your power in the first stage!"That way, your chances for success will be much higher. After all, if you do the first stage first, you'll still need to be wary of the later stages, and you won't want to use up too much true energy. You might look like you're at full strength, but you're actually holding back, and the skills you can use are limited!"When that person said that, everyone else nodded, feeling like he was right. However, someone else jumped out to refute him, "You're right, but not quite so. You have to think about things holistically. If you put the first stage in front, you can me
Fane had met many warriors from second-grade worlds with the same kind of attitude as Jimmy had. They always wanted to show how special they were, and they would do their best to use their words to push others back.Fane regularly had to deal with nonsense like that. He did not bother with it at all.Jimmy's lips twitched as he glared at Fane viciously. He gritted his teeth and looked at Fane. "Fine, keep being proud of yourself! Let's see how long you can maintain this farce! Once you start, people will know you were just bragging! Let's see if you still have the guts to talk to me like this afterward."Fane scoffed as he looked at Jimmy in disdain. He took out a piece of purple gold from Mustard Seed. It was not too big, only about the size of half a fist worth five million spirit crystals. The illusory stone nearest to Fane happened to be empty.Not wanting to waste time, Fane walked over, but the moment he did, he heard Jimmy speak, "You just love to brag, don't you?! Do you st
