Chapter 46: Competitive Expert
Li Chengfeng had been killed once by Wind and Cloud.
The feeling of being killed was very unpleasant, and he never wanted to experience it again.
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not seek revenge overnight.
He remembered this grudge, and he was determined to go back and defeat Wind and Cloud in super mode.
He wasn’t in a hurry to upgrade his internal skills.
After all, no matter how much he upgraded his internal skills, they would be suppressed to level 10 upon entering the World Society dungeon.
To seek revenge, what he lacked was fully mastered martial skills.
His current martial skills were not yet perfected, so he wasn’t in a hurry to acquire new ones.
Therefore, among the three check-in rewards, he chose the 500% increase in martial skill progress.
With this boost, combined with Li Chengfeng’s SS-level martial skill talent, in one day, Li Chengfeng increased the proficiency of the basic chapter of the “Micro Tremor Sword Technique” from 10% to 19%.
At this rate, in a week, he could only practice the basic moves and routines of the basic chapter to about 80%.
If he included practicing ultimate skills, the progress would be even slower.
Li Chengfeng was not entirely satisfied with this.
Martial skill progress could be better improved through actual combat.
So he rode his BMW S1000 to the local 5555 St. Station, 20 kilometers away.
Entering the St. Station.
10-20 Level Service Area.
Arena Teleportation Gate.
Here, Li Chengfeng could match with others who came to the arena for training.
And just like in the dungeon, they could engage in death matches.
If killed, one could be resurrected.
Moreover, death in the arena carried no penalties.
Unlike dungeon challenges, where death would reduce one’s lifespan by a year.
Li Chengfeng, now at level 13, deducted 1,300 yuan for the arena teleportation and matching fees.
For the matching options, Li Chengfeng selected:
Opponent Species: Human.
Opponent Level: 13.
Opponent Nationality: No restriction.
Opponent Sect: No restriction.
Opponent Gender: No restriction.
Opponent Number: No restriction.
Opponent Equipment: Superior.
Arena Location: No restriction.
?Matching started!?
One second later.
?Match successful, please enter the teleportation gate.?
Li Chengfeng walked into the teleportation gate and was quickly transported to the arena.
It was a square platform located atop a mountain peak.
One hundred meters in length and width.
Thin layers of snow covered the surroundings.
His opponent was an ordinary middle-aged man wielding dual axes and clad in battle armor.
He cupped his fists towards Li Chengfeng and said:
“I am Zhang Qing from the Dual Axe Sect of the Northern Sand Country.”
It seemed like he was introducing himself.
Li Chengfeng also cupped his fists in return:
“Xiaoyao Sect, Li Chengfeng.”
Zhang Qing’s expression became serious.
He had certainly heard of the renowned Xiaoyao Sect,
one of the top 500 sects in the world.
When entertaining guests, serving a couple of Xiaoyao Sect dishes would be a great honor.
“So, you are a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect. My apologies for any disrespect!”
“Please, let’s begin!”
The two began their duel.
Li Chengfeng didn’t use any ultimate skills, only basic sword moves for ordinary attacks.
After over 50 rounds, Li Chengfeng kicked Zhang Qing to the ground, preparing to finish him off with a sword.
Zhang Qing dropped his weapons and cupped his fists:
“Young Master Li, please wait, I surrender! Spare me!”
He didn’t want to endure the pain of death.
Li Chengfeng sheathed his sword.
A large prompt appeared before him:
?Duel Victory.?
?Solo Arena Ladder Points +50.?
?Ding! The proficiency of the basic chapter of the “Micro Tremor Sword Technique” has increased to level one.?
Li Chengfeng was delighted, a single battle lasting only a few minutes had increased his proficiency by 1%.
Indeed, actual combat improved proficiency much faster than practicing alone.
After leaving the arena, Li Chengfeng opened his phone.
He searched for information about the purpose of arena ladder points.
It turned out that each year constituted an arena season.
Everyone participating in arena duels was considered a contestant.
Winning duels in the arena added points, while losing duels deducted points.
At the end of the season, if your points ranking is relatively high, you can receive generous arena rewards.
These include achievements, equipment, money, and more.
Of course, achieving consecutive wins in regular duels also comes with rewards.
?Money – 1300 yuan.?
?Matching started!?
?Match successful, please enter the teleportation gate.?
Li Chengfeng entered the arena once again.
It was already the latter half of the season, and most of the participants in the arena had their strength and points closely matched.
Li Chengfeng had just started in the arena, so his rank was low, and most of the martial skills he encountered were of average level.
He won easily.
?Duel Victory.?
?Solo Arena Ladder Points +50.?
?Duel Victory.?
?Duel Victory.?
?Duel Victory.?
?Ding! You have achieved 5 consecutive arena victories, earning the ordinary achievement: “5 Consecutive Wins in the Arena.”?
…
?Duel Victory.?
?Ding! You have accumulated 10 arena duel victories, earning the ordinary achievement: “Arena Expert.”?
?Ding! You have received the 10-win arena reward, Money +10,000 yuan.?
Li Chengfeng was very pleased.
He was earning achievements, gaining money, and his martial skills were rapidly improving.
The arena was truly a great place!
