Giggle!
After slashing his opponent, Ye Shuangluo collapsed to the ground, waiting for his Health Points and Spiritual Power to fully recover.
[Congratulations on your victory! Battle Points +120 (Winning Streak Bonus Doubled), Merit +100]
[Your ranking in the Arena has improved. Current Rank: 5]
His opponent this time was a warlock who specialized in curses. The entire battle lasted ten minutes.
The warlock had cast over ten different negative buffs on him.
Slowing him down, reducing his attributes, draining his Spiritual Power, and lowering his Health Points…
If it weren’t for the opponent’s momentary lapse at the end, allowing him to seize the opportunity to get close and decapitate him with one strike, the outcome would have been uncertain.
After a while, Ye Shuangluo saw that his Health Points and Spiritual Power were fully restored.
He stood up and began his 100th and final match.
[Matching you with a slightly stronger opponent]
Hmm?
Ye Shuangluo frowned slightly. Previously, he had always been matched with evenly matched opponents. Why was the last match against a slightly stronger one?
[Match complete. Randomly generating battle scene]
[Random generation complete. This battle scene: Desert]
Ye Shuangluo’s body began to gradually turn transparent, and his vision went black.
When he regained consciousness, he was already in a desert.
Ye Shuangluo crouched down and grabbed a handful of sand, marveling at the realistic texture.
“Hey, hey, hey, no way, how did I get matched with a rookie? What’s the system trying to do?”
Ye Shuangluo stood up and looked towards the source of the voice, a young man with ram horns.
The system allowed them to understand each other’s language, although he hadn’t heard anyone speak in previous battles, nor had he spoken himself.
He couldn’t help but touch his nose. The young man had a faint smell of sulfur, and combined with the ram horns on his head, Ye Shuangluo had some guesses about his opponent’s abilities.
“What, a rookie challenging a 100-win streak? No wonder I got matched with him.”
The young man was shocked after receiving the system’s response, looking at Ye Shuangluo with admiration in his eyes.
“Tsk tsk, the reward for stopping your 100-win streak is quite substantial, young man, don’t blame me.”
Clang!
Before the young man could finish speaking, Ye Shuangluo gripped Mortal Kill and slashed at him.
But the young man merely punched, knocking him back.
Even the collision of fist and blade produced a metallic sound.
“Damn, you young people have no sense of honor, attacking without warning. If that’s the case, I won’t hold back.”
The young man’s body began to expand rapidly, his clothes tearing apart instantly, and the ram horns on his head grew larger.
Not only that, but a 30-centimeter tail with a triangular tip grew from his lower back.
Of course, the sulfur smell in the air also became more intense.
Ye Shuangluo watched the young man transform and smirked.
So he really was a demon. He had guessed right.
“Young man, you still have time to surrender.”
Ye Shuangluo didn’t speak, but gripped his sword with both hands, expressing his answer through action.
“Stubborn to the end, huh? Roar!”
Clang!
Fist and blade clashed again.
At the same time, the young man’s tail whipped at Ye Shuangluo from the right like a whip.
Whoosh!
With a gust of wind, Ye Shuangluo was sent flying.
He quickly got up, switching from a two-handed grip to a one-handed grip on his sword.
Clang!
This time, using only one hand, Ye Shuangluo couldn’t match the young man’s strength and was knocked back.
The tail tried to whip him again.
But this time, Ye Shuangluo grabbed it with his other hand and forcefully tore off the tip.
“Ah! My tail!”
The demonized young man yelped in pain like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
Ye Shuangluo casually tossed the tail tip aside and gripped his sword with both hands again.
Through several clashes, he had figured it out.
The young man was likely a formal player, with attributes surpassing his own. It was almost impossible to injure him.
He could only adapt and look for an opening.
Clang!
This was the third clash of fist and blade, but this time was different from the previous two.
After the clash, the young man’s punching arm hung limply, as if dislocated.
The young man was stunned, but Ye Shuangluo seized the opportunity, slashing at the unprotected chest.
Giggle!
The young man staggered back two steps, and Ye Shuangluo followed closely, driving his sword upward through the young man’s body.
At this moment, the young man’s arm had recovered. He grabbed the sword embedded in his body with one hand and punched with the other.
At the critical moment, Ye Shuangluo released Mortal Kill, dodged the punch by bending down, and used all his Spiritual Power to create dozens of ice spikes infused with Wind Element.
Swish, swish, swish!
The ice spikes rained down, turning the young man into a bloody pincushion.
The young man was not completely dead yet, but he was on his knees, unable to resist.
Ye Shuangluo pulled out Mortal Kill with one hand and then decapitated the young man with a single stroke.
“Young man, you…”
Before he could finish his last sentence, his body turned into starlight and disappeared.
[Congratulations on your victory! Battle Points +160 (Winning Streak Bonus Doubled), Merit +100]
[Your ranking has improved. Current Rank: 3]
Still not first place?
Ye Shuangluo opened the Arena’s preliminary ranking. He currently had just over 20,000 points.
The second place had a whopping 40,000 points, and the first place was even more outrageous, with a full 100,000 points.
This left Ye Shuangluo in shock. How did these two manage it?
Did they spend all their time in the Arena farming points?
In fact, he was right. The top two had indeed been farming Battle Points continuously, using some method to delay their participation in the third Trial.
[Congratulations on completing the challenge: “A Real Man’s 100-Win Streak”]
[Reward: Mysterious Gift]
Finally, he had obtained the Mysterious Gift.
He had been curious about this mysterious gift, only obtainable after a 100-win streak.

Ye Shuangluo was surprised by the item’s evaluation, filled with a string of censored words.
The last time he saw so many censored words was when the Mad Dog Group members were cursing at him.
The items obtained are completely random, huh?
Without much hesitation, he chose to open the Mysterious Gift.
