Half an hour later, the bald elder’s roaring voice was sowhat hoarse.
"How about it, have you figured it out? 6000 Paradise coins is a good price."
The man with the golden glasses smiled at the bald elder, no matter how the bald elder cursed him, he always had a slight smile.
"You... alright, I’ll knock off 1000 Paradise coins, just don’t bother anymore."
The elder sighed and looked at Su Xiao.
"The item is ready, wait a mont."
The bald elder walked to the back of the shop, the man with the golden glasses ca over.
"Hello friend, my na is Glasses."
Su Xiao remained silent. This guy was too talkative, and his flow of toxic motivational quotes was endless; even with the gift of gab, ten Su Xiaos might not be his match.
"Don’t be so cold. Having more friends in Paradise is always a good thing."
Su Xiao still said nothing.
"Such a cold guy."
The man with the golden glasses gave up and left the shop with his partner.
Shortly after the man with the golden glasses left, the bald elder erged from the back of the shop.
"Take a look, I’ve added a hook lock to the Boundary Line for you, it can be fixed on the outer walls of buildings."
Su Xiao took the "Bull Head Lord Arm Armor". At this ti, there was a barely noticeable small wire wheel at the wrist of the "Bull Head Lord Arm Armor", the wire wheel was flat in shape, and its color matched the bracer, both being bright red.
"Not bad."
Equipping the "Bull Head Lord Arm Armor", Su Xiao attempted to use the Boundary Line.
A cold flashing small hook lock sprang from the wrist of the bracer, directly nailing onto the shop wall. Su Xiao gave it a tug, and it was fixed very securely.
Su Xiao controlled the wire wheel of the Boundary Line to tighten, and a strong pulling force appeared, capable of lifting him entirely.
Taking a few steps forward unexpectedly, Su Xiao gave the Boundary Line a hard pull.
Ding.
The hook lock was pulled out from the wall, quickly retracting into the wire wheel.
"This is the usage thod I’ve summarized. This wire wheel can eject the Boundary Line in two ways. The first way is with a hook lock at the end, the second way is in a hookless state, which is more suitable for use during battle as it’s not easily perceived by enemies."
The bald elder handed over a usage manual. Although the modification costs weren’t low, the craftsmanship and creativity were comndable.
"Satisfied?"
"Very satisfied."
A smile naturally appeared on the bald elder’s face. Though his temper wasn’t good, the custor’s satisfaction lifted his spirits.
"Let’s cooperate again if given the chance."
Su Xiao was researching the modified "Bull Head Lord Arm Armor", whose functionality was very diverse, with excellent effects for climbing buildings.
"For straightforward custors like you, you’re certainly welco."
After exchanging greetings with the bald elder, Su Xiao left, heading straight to the arena.
With little ti left, Su Xiao intended to break into the top 20 ranking before returning to the real world.
Familiar with the way, Su Xiao arrived at the arena and waited in the lounge for a match.
[Matching opponents, please wait.]
Taking out his tablet, Su Xiao started playing a puzzle ga while waiting.
The puzzle ga had a considerable difficulty level, and he had only completed half of it.
[Match successful, due to Hunter’s eighty-four consecutive wins, the arena has matched Hunter with the (First Tier) 13th-ranked competitor.]
Teleportation feelings appeared, and Su Xiao hadn’t seen his opponent yet but heard tidal waves of cheers all around.
"Here it is, finally a battle among the top 15, I’ve waited for three hours."
"A close combat and long-range matchup? I favor close combat."
"I favor long range; that’s a cute girl."
The audience seats were packed, not a single vacancy.
"Semi-chanical modification?"
The opponent spoke at a distance. Su Xiao was wearing a bright red mask covering his lower face and bright red tal bracers, naturally making soone suspect semi-chanical modification.
"Using bow and arrows, Contractor."
Su Xiao’s voice had a muffled tallic quality, that was the mask’s effect.
His opponent was a girl holding a bow and arrow, with fresh green buds growing on the wooden bow. The girl’s figure was slim, her ears were sharp, naturally leading Su Xiao to associate her with elf-like professions.
"Defeat you, and I’ll enter the top ten. I’m already on a twenty-one win streak."
The elf girl was lively in personality, her appearance delicate, seemingly no more than eighteen or nineteen years old.
"Twenty-one consecutive wins?"
"What’s wrong, surprised? This is a symbol of strength."
The elf girl raised her fair chin.
"What a coincidence, I’m also on a winning streak."
Su Xiao was secretly delighted. He actually encountered an opponent with more than twenty consecutive wins. Ending a winning streak can greatly increase competition points. He had tested this before, ending a five-ti winning streak.
Now this elf girl had a record of twenty-one consecutive wins. If he could end her streak... perhaps he could directly break into the top ten.
With Su Xiao’s current strength, aiming for the top ten was not impossible, but it required a lot of ti, at least two or three Derivative World gaps, as matching ti was really long.
The elf girl’s appearance was nothing short of an opportunity.
[Three, two, one, the competition begins!]
The match began, and the isolation shield around Su Xiao disappeared, allowing him to move freely.
Su Xiao did not choose to summon Bubute Ni; he didn’t have the ti.
The battle started, and Su Xiao sprinted forward by pushing off the ground beneath his feet, Dragon Slash appearing in his hand, light blue arcs flowing across the surface, and he directly activated Blue Steel Shadow.
The elf girl skillfully drew her bow and notched an arrow, releasing a sharp arrow that flew towards Su Xiao.
Su Xiao tilted his head to dodge the arrow. The flying speed of the arrow was fast; he definitely couldn’t dodge it within three ters.
Only five ters remained from his enemy, and the enemy was long-range. Once he closed in, victory was certain.
The elf girl understood this as well, but her delicate face showed no panic. She put together her index and thumb, placing them in her mouth.
A whistle sounded, and a black panther appeared by the elf girl’s side.
"Little Black, hold him off."
The panther was the size of a tiger but very intelligent. It leaped towards Su Xiao, while the elf girl quickly retreated.
The panther lunged head-on, and Su Xiao neither dodged nor avoided it. A transparent shield appeared around him, the skill ’Sanctuary’ attached to [Mikasa’s Mind].
Up close with the panther, it raised its claws and scratched rapidly, its claws shining with a tallic luster. Like iron hooks, the feline’s claws shattered the shield within a few swipes; the panther’s attack power was terrifying.
Su Xiao’s footsteps never stopped. Holding the knife with one hand, he swung his sharp blade, the sharpness of Dragon Slash greatly improved after upgrading to a purple weapon. Now was the ti to test its sharpness.
The blade sliced through the panther’s body effortlessly, like cutting through tofu, with no resistance whatsoever.
The panther fell with a thud on the arena floor, its body split in two, twitching a few tis before disappearing into points.
The audience was astonished by Su Xiao’s powerful strike.
With this strike, Su Xiao harnessed power with a mysterious touch, delivering the blow.
After slicing, Su Xiao’s footsteps didn’t halt, and he quickly sped forward to reach the elf girl’s side.
The elf girl jumped back vigorously, already drawing her bow and shooting in mid-air, aiming the arrow at Su Xiao’s chest, releasing the bowstring.
Snap.
The bowstring vibrated at high speed, and a sharp arrow pierced through Su Xiao’s chest, leaving a hole as thick as a finger.
Although severely injured, Su Xiao’s slash landed.
Su Xiao leaped forward, Dragon Slash cleaving down from above. A bright knife light flashed, and the elf girl’s bow was cut, a forearm dropping to the ground.
Stumbling a couple of steps, Su Xiao stopped and stood while gasping for air.
The fight had only lasted ten seconds, yet these ten seconds were exceptionally brutal.
"Wow!!"
Roars of surprise echoed from the audience, and everyone stood up, feeling like today was a win; the match was simply spectacular.
"You’ve lost."
Su Xiao’s breathing steadied, and he calmly looked at the elf girl.
The elf girl stubbornly raised her head.
"I haven’t lost, just lost an arm, I still have..."
Bzzt~. The sound of tal wire retracting was heard, and the elf girl’s complexion changed dramatically.
"You... ruthless."
The sharp Boundary Line wrapped around the elf girl’s neck. Su Xiao tugged forcefully.
Smack, a head was cut off.
[Eighty-five consecutive wins!]
The audience was left dumbfounded on the spot. They had no idea what had happened.
[The solo battle has ended, victory!]
[The Hunter ended the opponent’s twenty-one consecutive wins, leading to an increase in the Hunter’s ranking, rising from 21st to 9th place (First Tier).]
[Detected that the Hunter has risen to the top ten in the arena, now ranked 9th (First Tier), rewarded with the ’King of Arena’ dal.]
