Challenging the Lord!

Chapter 14 Challenging the Lord!

The system will take time to approve the application. The first battle will be between Gu Ce and William, and will take place at noon on the second day.

During the remaining time, Gu Ce experienced the gravity chamber, which greatly helped him refine his physical body.

The banquet proceeded as scheduled.

Those present were all Chinese students, including Chu Qiang, who ranked third in the training camp.

Despite a difference of about half a year, the rankings in the training camps didn't actually change much.

Gu Ce did not hide his strength, which reassured these people a lot. Chu Qiang was even a little excited, as it was a rare and joyous occasion to see these people suffer heavy losses!

……

Noon the next day.

A large crowd gathered in front of the challenge room, watching Gu Ce and William enter.

"Thank you for sending me the money," William said with a smile.

"I also have to thank you." Gu Ce smiled, his smile becoming even brighter.

William paused, shook his head, and put on the virtual reality headset.

"Please select your weapon and combat uniform." A grand voice echoed throughout the arena.

Although Gu Ce had tested the power boost at the Thunder Martial Arts Academy, the data was not shared, so the power boost displayed on the pillar was only at the beginner level, which gave William some confidence.

"You choose the battleground," William said with a smile.

Gu Ce casually chose a venue, and William looked surprised.

"Battle, begin!" An electronic voice echoed across an island.

The waves surged all around, crashing incessantly against the rocks on the shore, and the wind howled, creating a tremendous roar.

William struck first, launching an attack on Gu Ce!

Both men wielded swords, but Gu Ce's power was significantly lower than William's. In William's eyes, Gu Ce was a complete novice, and he didn't take Gu Ce seriously at all.

Gu Ce's face was pale. He could only put up a fight against William's offensive from time to time, which only fueled William's arrogance.

"I say, you should just admit defeat!" William laughed arrogantly.

"Yeah?"

Gu Ce remained deathly pale. Faced with William's relentless attacks, Gu Ce performed at the level of an ordinary newcomer, nearly losing his life several times before managing to salvage the situation with great difficulty.

Taking advantage of William's tough talk, he found an opening, suddenly burst out, and thrust out with his sword!

"Challenge, Gu Cesheng!" The electronic voice echoed over the island, and the island's phantom image disappeared.

"What?" William was full of surprise. He didn't think he would lose to Gu Ce at all.

Gu Ce secretly let out a breath.

It's quite difficult to release water without being noticed at all.

If William is defeated instantly from the start, the others probably won't continue the challenge.

"Next!" Gu Ce said with a smile.

……

In the challenges that followed, Gu Ce consistently demonstrated a level of performance that was evenly matched, or even suppressed.

Most of the losers felt that they had been careless and had been ambushed and killed by Gu Ce, while only a few noticed that something was wrong.

"He took down everyone ranked 71st." A tall, thin man from the EU faction, only slightly shorter than Gu Ce, and who looked like a legendary vampire, said.

"His strength is definitely not simple; he could at least rank in the top fifty! No wonder those people from China didn't stop him."

"Candice, do you want to give it a try with him?" a brown-haired girl asked.

"No." Candace's face darkened. "I'm afraid I'm no match for him now, however..."

"Renatus is very interested in him," Candice laughed.

"I found out that Gu Ce seems to have 90 hours of gravity chamber usage time. A newcomer, why should he receive the same treatment as the number one ranked player? Just wait, Renates will challenge him in a few days!"

"This Gu Ce is hiding his strength and has ill intentions!" Candice sneered.

……

9 month 21 day.

In the past few days, Gu Ce has been training in the gravity chamber and facing challenges from the students in the challenge room. In a very short time, he has earned hundreds of billions!

Although the money was of little use to Gu Ce, it saved him the trouble of troubling his uncle, so he directly bought himself a full set of SS-grade equipment.

Today, Gu Ce accompanied Luo Feng to the hunting area for the first time.

"Luo Feng, are there any Lord-level monsters in this City 1001?" Gu Ce asked impatiently.

"Yes, there is," Luo Feng said hesitantly. "However, after killing a Lord-level monster and being rated as a War God, you'll have to leave the training camp. Didn't you just arrive here not long ago?"

Killing two low-level lord-class monsters would qualify one as a low-level war god, and Luo Feng was somewhat worried that Gu Ce would graduate directly from the training camp.

As for whether Gu Ce could kill a lord-level being, Luo Feng was not worried at all.

"It's nothing," Gu Ce said with a smile. "The only thing that's somewhat useful to me in the training camp is the gravity chamber."

He felt that he was only one step away from grasping the essence of the concept.

If fighting against the lords here can help me break through my own limits, that would be ideal.

Even if that doesn't work, after leaving the training camp, he will go to the wilderness to find more powerful monsters, fight them, and seek a breakthrough opportunity.

Compared to the facilities in the training camp.

Gu Ce became even more curious about the ancient civilization ruins in Antarctica that Thor had promised the Thunder Martial Arts School.

"Alright then." Luo Feng nodded, no longer hesitating, and told Gu Ce the locations of several lord-level monsters he knew.

They consist of two low-level lords and a monster that appears to be a high-level lord.

In the training camp, almost no one would be foolish enough to hunt lord-level monsters.

These lord-level creatures typically don't attack the trainees in the training camp unprovoked. Having evolved to this level, they possess some intelligence.

After Gu Ce took the map and located the monster, he carried the Longevity Sword and leaped from the top of the city's high-rise buildings, disappearing from Luo Feng's sight in a few breaths.

"Perfect-level movement technique... I can do that too!"

Luo Feng watched Gu Ce's departing figure, clenched his fists in secret, and then threw himself into the slaughter of the monsters.

kill!

……

The first target was a shopping mall located in the city center.

A Bloodscale War Bull, as large as a small mountain, occupied this place, surrounded by a large herd of cattle of the level of beast soldiers and beast generals.

Standing in front of the mall, Gu Ce made a surprising move.

He drew his long sword from his back and charged at the cattle with incredible speed!

Swish!

The sword pierced the heads of one blood-scaled war bull after another, severing their horns.

SS-grade equipment is for fighting King-level monsters.

Using it to deal with these ordinary beast general-level monsters would be a waste of its potential.

"Moo~~~"

The herd of cattle scattered in terror, creating chaos that quickly alerted the innermost lord-level Bloodscale War Bull.

As it stepped out of its nest, it saw that its offspring had been almost completely slaughtered by Gu Ce, and its original intention of not wanting to provoke humans vanished instantly.

"Moo!!"

The Bloodscale War Bull roared, its eyes turning blood red, and charged at Gu Ce with its massive horns!

"Good timing!"
