Chapter 436: Expert Who Suddenly Came Over
Montgomery left the virtual combat room proudly. He opened his personal information and discovered that he had successfully defended the arena 99 times. He could not help but laugh.
As long as he successfully defended the arena again, he could rely on succeeding a hundred times in a row and not need to challenge a three-star arena master to automatically advance to a three-star arena master. The reward he obtained would also greatly increase.
Of course, the opponents the three-star arena master encountered were usually much stronger than when he was the two-star arena master. However, he was fully confident that with his powerful strength that was only a step away from breaking through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate, he could still defend the arena of the three-star arena master.
Just as he was about to browse the forum to see what good things he could exchange with his new contribution points, a light flashed and a familiar figure appeared in front of Montgomery.
The place where Montgomery was now was his private space in Martial Soul. Apart from himself and his approved friends, it was impossible for anyone else to enter.
Looking carefully, the guy who suddenly appeared was indeed a good friend he had made in the forum. The name on the forum and the name in the game were both called Cautious Fool.
Seeing Cautious Fool’s depressed expression, Montgomery asked in confusion, “What? Did you encounter something?”
Cautious Fool waved his hand in frustration and cursed softly, “Damn, I actually lost!”
“Lost?” Montgomery was stunned. He used his friend authority to inquire about the records of Cautious Fool’s battles. As expected, he discovered that the results of his latest competition were negative.
Although Cautious Fool was slightly weaker than him and was only a fourth-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist at the moment, it had been a long time since he had tasted defeat as a one-star arena master. He could already be considered the very outstanding one among the one-star arena masters.
If not for the fact that Cautious Fool liked to stay in the one-star arena master to attack those newbies who came to challenge, he actually had hope of breaking through to the two-star arena master.
However, he, who could be considered to have suppressed most novices with his strength, had actually lost!
The arena master was different from the challengers. If the challengers lost, they could at most try again. If the arena master lost, he would be gone. He would become a newbie like those challengers and start over. Moreover, the reward obtained after every battle would be greatly reduced. Therefore, Cautious Fool was so depressed and angry.
......
“A new expert?” Montgomery could not help but ask, “How’s his strength?”
There were actually such things.
Although the virtual arena organized by the Star Martial Artist Forum was similar to the levels of the players in Martial Soul, gradually solidifying with time, and the higher levels were stronger, there would still be new experts joining occasionally to break this situation.
Therefore, Montgomery was not surprised that Cautious Fool had been defeated. He was only curious.
It had been a long time since such an expert had suddenly appeared. Of course, he had to ask around.
Hearing Montgomery’s question, the expression on Cautious Fool’s face became very strange.
“That guy… is not very strong. I fought him a few times and felt that the strength of his Internal Breath was not much different from mine. At most, it was the strength of a fourth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist. However, his moves…” Cautious Fool frowned as if he did not know how to describe it, “It feels… it feels like he knew what I was going to do in advance. He was always able to be a step ahead and make me feel very uncomfortable fighting. I was always passive. In the end, I had no choice but to lose.”
“Is that so…”
Montgomery nodded and was slightly disappointed.
If it was as Cautious Fool had said, that guy was at most a fourth-stage Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, then he was not worth paying special attention to.
Although Cautious Fool had said that that person’s moves were strange, Montgomery did not take it to heart.
To him, the most important factor in determining a martial artist’s strength was still the strength of their Internal Breath.
No matter how strange that person’s moves were, if he encountered a fifth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist like him, he would only be easily defeated because of the huge difference in the strength of his Internal Breath. There was no possibility of winning.
Of course, there was no need to say this in front of Cautious Fool so as to not affect his fragile self-esteem that had just been defeated.
How could Cautious Fool not see what Montgomery was thinking? He frowned slightly and said, “Don’t take it lightly. That guy is really a little strange. I’ve never encountered such a guy. I keep feeling that his strength shouldn’t be as simple as a fourth-stage Internal Breath Realm.”
Montgomery laughed and waved his hand.
“So what if I take it seriously? Can he still challenge me now?”
Cautious Fool immediately froze.
Montgomery was right.
Unlike Cautious Fool who was only a one-star arena master, because Montgomery was a two-star arena master, there were still conditions to challenge him. That was, he had to successfully challenge ten one-star arena masters in a row before he was qualified to challenge a two-star arena master.
The guy who had defeated Cautious Fool was clearly a newbie. If he wanted to challenge a two-star arena master like Montgomery, he had to first obtain the ten consecutive wins of a newbie before he could obtain the qualifications to challenge a one-star arena master.
After this, he had to successfully challenge ten one-star arena masters before he could challenge Montgomery.
Although he could directly challenge the other one-star arena masters because he had just defeated Cautious Fool and replaced him as the one-star arena master, as long as he lost any one of them, he would become an ordinary newbie like Cautious Fool and start from scratch again.
If he was unlucky and lost another round, he would have to start again.
Therefore, if he wanted to challenge Montgomery, he had to win at least 20 consecutive rounds, including the ten rounds where he defeated a one-star arena master.
This difficulty was not something ordinary challengers could complete.
The challengers Montgomery had encountered in the past had all accumulated the number of times they had defeated a one-star arena master after failing again and again. Only then did they obtain the qualifications to challenge a two-star arena master. No challenger had ever directly obtained 20 consecutive wins.
In fact, after many challengers finally became one-star arena masters, they did not dare to casually challenge other one-star arena masters. They wanted to guard their position as one-star arena masters well and rely on it to obtain more contribution points than the challengers.
.
Cautious Fool was one of them.
Therefore, in short, the guy who defeated Cautious Fool might indeed be slightly stronger than him, but it was impossible for him to defeat nine one-star arena masters in such a short period of time without any failure.
“Alright, you should study the battle recording carefully and see where you lost?” Montgomery patted the shoulder of Cautious Fool, “You’ve been a one-star arena master for long enough. It’s normal for you to lose. Next time…”
Suddenly, a notification sounded.
“Montgomery, someone is challenging you. Do you accept?”
Montgomery and Cautious Fool were stunned.
They had just been talking about challenging Montgomery, but they did not expect one to come now.
“Which one-star arena master is impatient and came to challenge me?” Montgomery sneered and muttered. He opened the notification and was stunned, “Virgin 001? What kind of lousy name is this? Is he really a virgin?”
Cautious Fool’s expression immediately changed when he heard this.
“It’s him!”
