Chapter 755 Floor 51
Chapter 755 Floor 51
As you can imagine, they were horrified by the precedent this would set. It should be obvious, but once a Supreme Being was seen fighting, it would break the notion that Supreme Beings weren't allowed to fight.
Basically, if something happened once, it broke a certain chain that prevented it from happening, so it was more likely to occur a second time, a third, until it became the norm.
Draco didn't care about any of this. He bemusedly paced around the Tyrannosaurus Apex which had fallen on her bum, trembling like a chick out of the egg. The bloodline suppression was so thick that all rational thought had left her mind.
If Draco were to ask her to deny her own mother, she would do so without hesitation.
"Hmm, not to my preference personally, but either Clarent, that dog, or one of my kids may have a use for you." Draco muttered as he paced around the T-Apex.
He used a claw to tear open a portal to his Inner Universe.
"Get in." Draco commanded coldly.
The T-Apex practically charged into the portal, only relaxing once she realized it was alone on a planet with a mixture of water, earth, and wood elements. When it felt the abundant energy of the Inner Universe, its restricted power burst out.
Rank 4…
Rank 5…
Rank 6…
Rank 7!
As it turned out the T-Apex had been a Rank 7 existence suppressed down to Rank 3 due to the floor rules. At its level, it could perfectly sustain itself with outside energies and the quality of them was so good that it directly entered hibernation.
It was evolving once more!
The fuck!
The T-Apex may not be the most beautiful in Dragon terms, but she sure was talented.
Draco saw this and closed his portal. The speechless and silent crowd could not even say anything as the floor began to decompose. Without the enemy fighter of this floor, what was the point of continuing?!

Draco jumped to the next floor without stopping. Here, he was back in the same old arena, this time the foe he was facing was not as predictable.
?Name: Nemean Lion – Major Rank monster
Level: 150
HP: 34,000,000/34,000,000?
A huge, SUV-sized Lion roared as it appeared across Draco, its fur a mixture of orange and white, with some black stripes which were like claw marks. Its eyes were a dark yellow and its mane was gray in color.
It was muscular, ferocious, and full of murderous intent as it slowly trawled towards Draco. He idly entertained the thought of fighting it seriously, then shook his head.
?The Fifty-Second Floor – Divine Quest
Description: Ah, what a lovely smell in the air. Blood, sex, and brutality all round, a single whiff making a true warrior feel at home while the weak feel terror. This is the Death Arena, where Supreme Beings of the multiverse come to watch special and unique entities fight each other to the death.
Your second enemy is the legendary Nemean Lion that has only been defeated by a Demi-God in the making.
Limitation 1: There is no surrendering on these floors, nor is there such a thing as a 'tie'. You either die, or your opponent dies.
Limitation 2: You may retreat from the floor at any time, but upon re-entry, you would have to resume from the exact situation you were in at the time.
Limitation 3: There is no time limit for fights, so even if both parties are ko'ed, the match will run until the first to take up kills the other.
Limitation 4: There is a limit on battle space. Exiting the arena intentionally or not will have one automatically obliterated from existence by the watching Supreme Beings.
Provision 1: You have full access to all your powers, titles and abilities, equipment, and inventory.
Provision 2: All enemies are reduced to the same level and Rank as you regardless of whence they came.
Provision 3: Enemies do not grant experience upon being killed, but rather grant a random legendary skill, ability, item or equipment.
Rewards: Score Points, 1 Gold-Tier Reward Selection.?
He waved a hand and opened a portal, allowing Qiong Qi to come out. Like the previous two times he had been foiled, there was no ominous laughter. He carefully poked his head through, looked left and right, then came through gingerly.
Once bitten, twice shy.
"What do you want?" Qiong Qi asked with an unfriendly tone.
Draco simply pointed to the Nemean Lion which was gazing at Qiong Qi like it had seen a ghost. The Legendary Lion of Nemea that had created a legend for itself on earth was also quaking in its boots at the sight of Qiong Qi.
After all, given his shamelessness, one couldn't be faulted if they forgot, but the guy was a fucking DIVINE Lion. There was a huge gap between the two.
Qiong Qi saw this, read the floor details, then smiled filthily. He understood Draco brought him out here to pay back their grudge, and he was happy. He skipped over to the terrified Nemean Lion and placed a paw around its shoulder.
"Hahaha, brother Nemean, you are truly fashionable. Look at that white mane and those claw marks. You have a big fate with those edgelord protagonists like that fellow standing over there." Qiong Qi laughed as he pointed at Draco.
Draco could only cough blood helplessly at the potent insult, wondering what he had done to earn a free stray bullet like this. Worst of all, he couldn't even refute it since he used to have a lion mount by the name of 'Richie' in the previous timeline.
Qiong Qi continued without paying mind to his wicked words.
"From now on, you shall be my first lackey! You will cook, you will clean, and let me tell you, you ain't getting no ring. Now get in that portal, you Weak Ass Pussy!" Qiong Qi roared as he tossed the Nemean Lion into the portal that Draco had opened.
Qiong Qi then saw the Supreme Beings by the side gaze at him with shock.
You guessed it!
Divine Lions were also counted as Supreme Beings, some even watching from the crowd right now!
Fortunately, the floor details didn't seem to carry over for this set, as the floor broke down on Qiong Qi and Draco.

Back in the castle, Qiong Qi and Draco decided to move on to the next floor. Once again in the arena, they looked around to see who they would be facing this time.
?Name: RX-78-2 Gundam – Major Rank monster
Level: 150
HP: 122,000,000/122,000,000?
A majestic giant robot Mech landed right before Qiong Qi and Draco, striking a magnificent pose as it looked down at them. With strange expressions, Draco and Qiong Qi looked up.
"Is that a…" Qiong Qi began with uncertainly.
"…fucking Gundam?" Draco finished with disbelief.
The two shared a look. Draco then waved his hand and opened a portal, allowing Clarent out. The fellow also put his head through, looked left and right, before coming through slowly.
"Hmph, bastard Draco, what do you- HOLY FUCK, IS THAT A MOTHERFUCKING GUNDAM?!" Clarent began unhappily, but was thoroughly spooked.
"Yeah. Let's fight it this time." Draco decided as he took out Dragorugio and Fragarach. Qiong Qi also cricked his neck and released his claws while Clarent calmed down and flapped his wings taking to the sky.
There was a tense silence as the two parties gazed at each other without moving, then all of a sudden, the two parties rushed at each other!
Two laser cannons appeared on each shoulder of the Gundam, firing red lasers at the three who were rushing at it. Draco directly cut the lasers with both of his blades, frowning when he saw the low reduction in durability for both.
"Be careful, it's likely a Rank 7 entity reduced to Rank 3! Your innate advantages won't help you much!" Draco warned, but it was too late.
Relying on the fact that he too was a Rank 7 entity suppressed to Rank 3 thanks to Draco, Qiong Qi arrogantly received the lasers head-on, only to be blasted back.
Clarent also was struck in the wing, burning a hole through the leathery part and howling in pain as he crash-landed. The Gundam then morphed its hands into machine guns and fired at the downed duo.
"Hey, hey, forgetting about me?" Draco laughed as he swing at the Gundam's leg, a black wave emerging from his Dragorugio blade. That wave passed through the leg of the Gundam and easily severed it like it was cutting through butter.
-23,000,000!
Draco placed his sword on his shoulder casually as he watched the Mech fall to one leg weakly, its expressionless features flashing with crisis.
"I know I've said this before, but I'll say it again. Destruction Energy works on all species, regardless of Rank. Whether Rank 1 or Rank 10,000, you're gonna feel it unless you have resistance or immunity to this element, which is super rare." Draco spoke casually as he watched the Mech struggle to auto-repair itself, something the actual Mech in his favorite childhood show didn't do.
However, the traces of Destruction Energy around the sliced edges prevented any of that nonsense, allowing Qiong Qi and Clarent to regain their bearings.
Immediately, Qiong Qi leaped forward and swiped a claw forward.
"Divine Claw!"
His Claw superimposed itself and created a giant energy-like version of itself that was golden colored, tearing into the armor of the Gundam.
-12,000,000!
Clarent dove down and struck the ground, pushing great amounts of magical and fire energy into the earth.
"Magma Wave!"
?Magma Wave – Ability
Effect: Spawn a huge wave of flowing magma that covers an area of 500 yards. This deals 150% fire damage and disintegrates anything caught within the wave.
Cooldown: 25 minutes.?
From beneath the fallen Gundam, a huge hole appeared in which red hot magma appeared, splashing all over the machine and causing parts of it to melt on contact.
-66,000,000!
?Name: RX-78-2 Gundam – Major Rank monster
Level: 150
HP: 21,000,000/122,000,000?
The Mech was on its last legs, and its wires and circuitry were exposed all over, sparking with electricity and fire. It was barely as handsome as it had been a few moments ago, now looking like a piece of scrap metal that needed to be recycled.
Despite that, it still slammed its hands together and manifested a sword of laser energy that shook the arena with powerful winds.
The faces of Draco's group became serious as they saw this. They knew that greeting hit by that blade would not be a fun experience, so Draco directly used one of his strongest sword skills.
Torrents of Worldly Energy were absorbed by the Dragorugio blade, producing a black fire that burned across the sword's metal. The Dragon head on its pommel came to life and roared, its red eye glowing with malice.
"Paragon Sword Style, Sword Skill 359: Overcharge!"
Draco blasted forward, appearing before the Gundam and piercing his sword within its body. The energy accumulated by the blade seeped into the Mech as Draco slowly walked away as if time had stopped.
When time 'resumed' the Mech only had time to move slightly before it exploded in a huge mushroom cloud that filled the whole arena with sharp winds.
