"You think too highly of yourself. You seem to think that Violet City is like your backyard. Do you think you can just enter as you please? Stop joking around. Even many second-grade-world warriors failed and were tossed out."With the three of your skills combined, other than the one from a second-grade world, the two of you should be proud of yourselves if you manage to stand firmly on the ground when you're tossed out!"Lourain started to laugh as he pointed at Fane and said, "Do you hear that? This is what everyone thinks. Stop thinking so highly of yourself. With your skills, I don't even know if you can protect yourself. Who do you think you are, saying you'll lead us to victory?""You!" Rudy was so angry that he wanted to rush over if it were not for Fane grabbing him. These people were crossing the line!Fane raised an eyebrow before he patted Rudy on the arm, calming Rudy. It was not like they could attack these people anyway; arguing with these people was meaningless.He
The entrance to the Seven Deaths Array was about three meters wide and three meters tall. It was in the middle of the whole place. After getting assigned to their groups, the challengers could go in whenever they wanted to within the next day.Many of them were not very confident. They had not vented out all their complaints yet, which was why they remained outside for a long time. However, they were still limited to a day no matter what. After a day, any challenger who had not entered would be considered to have forfeited, and they would lose their chance.The three of them arrived at the entrance and looked at the violet glow in front of them. Lourain stood there, his eyes staring right at the entrance. Even though he did his best to try and make himself look calm, Fane could still see the pressure getting to Lourain. It was obvious that Lourain was not that confident."If you're worried, you can stay out of this." Fane's tone was cold.Lourain sharply looked over and looked at F
However, that conflict did not last for that long. When Fane took that last step, the killing array was activated. A golden glow suddenly appeared in the violet light. The golden glow turned into a warm wind and quickly circled them.The three of them immediately took out their weapons. Compared to how anxious the two of them were, Fane was calm with a glint of curiosity in his eyes. He wanted to see how powerful the Seven Deaths Array was.Crack!The sound of weapons clashing against each other could be heard in front of them. The golden glow intensified, swallowing the violet light around them. After a few moments, two massive, brightly glowing golden swords appeared in front of them. Upon closer inspection, they could see runes floating around the swords.Lourain gulped and said, "A metal-type killing array!"There were a total of seven killing arrays of various attributes within the Seven Deaths Array. He could not believe the first one they saw would be a metal type.Even th
After a brief moment, it formed into 12 golden swords, each one aimed toward them in a semicircle. If it had been two massive swords, they would have been able to avoid them if they were quick enough, but 12 swords…sealed off their fate.Other than retreating, there was nothing else they could do.When the thought surfaced, a massive wave of murderous intent came from behind them. The three of them looked over, and Lourain's eyes almost popped out of their sockets as he gulped.The golden swords were not just in front of them but behind them as well. At that moment, 12 golden swords were charging at them from the front, while two massive golden swords were charging at them from the back, preventing any form of escape. There was no way to avoid the attack.They only had one choice, which was to face it head-on.At that moment, Lourain and Marth were both anxious. They knew, at this moment, why many failed. It was just the first array, and it was already so difficult.Lourain mumbl
Lourain mustered an energy shield to stop the power of the massive golden swords, but alas, it could not even protect him. It was not long until he felt his back burning in intense pain due to the gash inflicted on his back. He could not help but cry out in agony as he rushed toward Fane.Marth was not in a much better fate. Thankfully, he was faster than Lourain was and started running a moment before Lourain. When Lourain was attacked, Marth managed to flee as he was faster.Fane had arrived at that moment. Marth could feel that the space in front of him was distorting. The next second, a familiar figure appeared in front of them. Lourain was stunned by the sight.Not only was Fane incredibly strong, but he knew the laws of space as well.Fane was a monster. Most warriors were normally good at one aspect; either their attack power or their speed. Someone who was good at both and better than others at it too was a monster among prodigies—a warrior that stood above everyone!Loura
While Lourain was overtaken with fear, Marth was so excited he wanted to shout. The masked man had not been bragging at all; he was that strong! Marth was so excited that he did not know what to say.After a long time, he said, "I guess I was ignorant. What you said before wasn't just empty words. I can't believe…"As he said that, his voice shuddered a bit. The Seven Deaths Array had a very low rate of success. Warriors that were stronger than Marth had failed, and even if it was possible, their circumstances dragged them back.Regardless, many warriors failed.Marth had been hoping to luck into stronger companions, but he ended up with Lourain. On top of that, Fane was from a third-grade world as well. Before they entered the Seven Deaths Array, Marth had not been that hopeful and felt like his companions were just oddities. Yet, the person he thought was bragging was, in fact, truthful. Marth was lucky enough to have someone this powerful as his teammate.With someone as strong
"Just shut your mouths," hissed Fane, his tone mature. His single command immediately ceased the argument.Lourain looked at Fane apprehensively, worried that Fane would bring up what happened before. After all, he had been rude to him before they entered the array. He did not even dare to think about what he had said before.He could say everything he did with conviction in front of regular warriors from third-grade worlds without any worry. However, the situation was different. Fane was no ordinary warrior; he stood at the top of the food chain. Not only at the peak of third-grade worlds, but the absolute one, including second-grade worlds. Fane was probably one of the five or three strongest warriors in the Whirling World. Someone as horrifyingly strong as that was someone he would not even dare to say anything in front of, let alone offend. Not only had he run his mouth, but he was harsh with his words as well. Lourain had offended Fane, and knowing this, he felt like dying.F
As Fane walked, he counted his steps. When he took the seventh step, a mature, old-sounding voice rang."Challengers, will you raise the difficulty? The difficulties are spread into the black-iron, bronze, or gold ranks. You're currently at the black-iron rank. If you increase it to the bronze rank, the strongest one will get a special treasure. If you increase it to the gold rank, the strongest warrior will get three treasures and a special badge."All three of them were stunned to hear that. They could choose their difficulty? They were at the black-iron difficulty at that moment, and there were two other difficulty levels they could choose from. They never heard about that before.Marth frowned and said, "So there are three difficulties inside the Seven Deaths Array. Why haven't we heard about this before?"Lourain coughed as he said fearfully, "How strong were those people? How strong is this…man? Those that barely passed wouldn't have been allowed to choose their difficulties.
