1050: Chapter 1036: System Error?
“…I really didn’t expect such an outcome.
I still suggest you escape now.
I never thought My Lord would make such a judgment; something must have gone wrong….”
Priest Gan sought out Lu Ping’an once again, this time with a rare expression of surprise on his face.
It was the duel procedure that had just been accepted…..
God of Martial Fight, you really think highly of me.”
“….In My Lord’s judgment, even so, you still have a chance of winning, but from my personal experience, this is already a hopeless situation…”
Reality is not like playing a game; battles involve getting hurt and tired, and in the clash of professionals, intelligence is equivalent to a lifeline…..
Thirteen consecutive battles to the death will drain a professional’s strength, energy, and hidden methods, and even if all these are bottomless, the use of extraordinary power too frequently can lead to ‘Contamination’ getting out of control.
Gan Qianyun’s face showed difficulty hiding his embarrassment and helplessness.
He had originally favored this young man, intending to do a favor by helping him build a ladder to the heavens.
After all, even if one “applies” for it, whether the application will be approved is another matter.
According to Gan Qianyun’s understanding of the God of Martial Fight, It enjoys evenly matched battles to the death and likes to see the weaker party give their all to pull off a miracle of triumphing over the strong…
but It detests it when a Strongman loses advantage due to some extraneous factor, allowing the Weaker to snatch a cheap victory.
So, the “stage” It provided should have been one where Lu could possibly fight his way through with all his might.
In Gan Qianyun’s plan, the final approved duel should have only been about four or five matches, which would have given Lu Ping’an a chance to break through…
Thirteen Decree-level matches to the death would almost inevitably overload his extraordinary abilities, and injuries and exhaustion would be fatal.
“At this point, can I still leave?”
“I can use my authority to open a door for you…
Of course, if My Lord doesn’t see what It wants, It’s bound to throw a tantrum at me, but no worries, I’m used to it.
At worst, I’ll just go back to the grassroots and work for another couple of years.”
The shrewd old hand looked indifferent, and at this moment, Lu Ping’an too was somewhat surprised.
After all, the priest before him should be a devout believer…..
“I do worship the ‘God of Martial Fight,’ but what I want to see is the spark of life in the heat of battle, not the farce of a Mammoth Elephant being bloodily speared to death by savages.
To put into practice My Lord’s teachings and correct the deity’s foolish actions is what a devout believer should do.”
Even if it goes against the will of the Deity?
This time, Lu Ping’an was truly surprised…..
but after thinking about it, the Blood Feast had already seen an internal revolt by the group of Blood-crows, so it seemed plausible.
A believer is a believer, after all.
Some people’s faith exists only for the sake of benefits, but this man, devoted to ‘doctrine’, was already a rare instance of pure faith.
“No need, your Deity hasn’t made a mistake…”
This time, it was Gan Qianyun’s turn to be surprised.
“You mean, you have a chance of winning?
Heh, I thought this was My Lord’s way of forcing you to join His Church….
Fine then, it seems I’ve been meddling unnecessarily.”
Priest Gan promptly stood up to take his leave, while Lu Ping’an gained a measure of respect for the believer who dared defy their own Deity’s will.
“Heh, there is another devout believer here…”
In the list of duels that Lu Ping’an received, there was a devout follower of Big Cat, who would seek revenge for the Deity even if It had fallen.
That’s a fool, a fanatic, an idiot with no future, but for you now, he is indeed an obstacle.”
Yet our “god” seems to be completely dismissive of her most devoted Servant (self-proclaimed).
Lu Ping’an sighed, not out of concern for Damon Mendel, for even if he were strong, he was merely his prey.
“Little creature, why did you insist on signing up?”
“…I want to be the champion!”
Very well, a very solid reason.
The twelve final contestants had reached the point where if they did not challenge Lu Ping’an, they would certainly be directly eliminated.
The majority of them had submitted duel requests to Lu Ping’an…
yet most were denied.
According to the underlying logic of Domineering Three Faces, It definitely wanted to see “the most exciting duels,” and those twelve final round participants were even judged by the deity to lack the strength to take the stage…
this was already a naked humiliation.
Some had angrily left, while others stayed to see just how much they fell short.
What was most incredible was that the little girl, who seemed to have been dragged in by Lu Ping’an, not only dared to apply, but was also approved, and what was most outrageous was that her arranged match was relatively later on…
are you very strong?”
“Hee, did you just notice?”
Looking at the little one with her hands on her hips, a face full of “I’m super strong” arrogance, Lu Ping’an had to reassess her.
He nodded, but in the latter half, a relaxed match where he could take a little rest might indeed be a good thing…
maybe it was a rest round arranged by Domineering Three Faces for him.
But now, as the festival’s schedule had become completely twisted, Lu Ping’an had become the sole protagonist, and he no longer had independent space and time.
Just looking at the written materials and data on paper, there wasn’t a single easy fight.
Even, after the news spread, many people felt that Lu Ping’an had offended Domineering Three Faces, wanting him dead…
“…That won’t do, doesn’t that mean no one will bet on me to win?”
Within this Secret Realm, “public favor” was directly related to strength.
At this time, Big Cat also offered his opinion?
Lu Ping’an shook his head though, this kind of “all-in” game, while shocking the first time, should still be played on the right occasion, like when he had a major victory in the first round.
“It seems the first unfortunate loser is about to emerge…”
And looking at the schedule, Lu Ping’an revealed a subtle smile.
Domineering Three Faces really held him in high regard, the first opponent should be just for warming up, but It had…
directly arranged a fifth-tier?
Heh, this is the weakest among these thirteen?”
This time, Lu Ping’an’s smile grew even more cheerful.
Originally, this was probably a terrifying reality, but now…
glancing at Xiao Mu who still had her hands on her hips showing off her little muscles, Lu Ping’an thought there must be some error there.
Probably, it was just for as dramatic a setup as possible.
“…Don’t waste any more time, come get your equipment and supplies.”
Things being as they were, holding back or playing timidly was no longer realistic.
Lu Ping’an’s Logistics Team had worked overtime to produce a complete set of equipment for him, along with consumables and supplies…
if he really went to the fight empty-handed, Lu Ping’an would indeed consider just walking away.
And this time, it was truly a battlefield massacre-level configuration.
now, then, it’s time to give these old-era Conservatives a little taste of the New Era.”
