Chapter 886 - Great Era

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Everything was listed in too great of a detail!

If it had been out of pure luck that Wandering Know-it-all obtained Universe Secrets Inkston and was able to control the high-end divination in China to control the market, then America’s Carlson might have relied on the resources he accumulated later on and used up a lot of energy and time to create an International Great People Rank as well as his International Influential Rank of the Strong, which caused the people to be even more surprised the further they read into it.

In the beginning, the people were only there to observe the ranking board, but as time passed and they gained some understanding to the ranking board, they felt as if their view of the world had widened up, and they were shocked, because it felt as if there were actually a lot of powerful players gathered in the world.

Aside from the feats on Great People Rank and the shocking figures they saw there, there were also a lot of details that the Influential Rank revealed, and they were things that Wandering Know-it-all never delved into deeply.

And it was about how their attributes counteracted each other!

Aside from their strength and equipment, there was something else that was incredibly important for a person to enter the Influential Rank.

Attributes!

Only when an attribute had surpassed two hundred and forty points will a person’s combat strength increase.

Two hundred and forty Arm Strength was equivalent to having the additional power from a highly refined masterpiece. It can allow a person to have unknown advantages in a contest of strength.

The side with higher Arm Strength will have a small amount of damage taken removed from the body.

Meanwhile, the one with lower Arm Strength will suffer twice the damage from one hit from his opponent.

Besides, Affinity signified its compatibility with the user’s body fortification.

The higher a user’s Affinity, the more effective he or she will be able to bring out the defensive advantages in their body fortifications and effective defenses, which was the state where they can maintain their posture.

The Prophet made a comparison of the Affinities between Ralston and the normal elite on the Influential Rank.

The former had Dragon and Elephant Wisdom Palm, and his martial art can only be considered normal, but his Affinity was so high that it was frightening, and because of his great strength, which was his talent, his Arm Strength and Affinity was much higher than the normal person. He practiced wrestling in Mongolia for a year, and his Affinity was at two hundred and eighty points, which was much higher than a normal person’s Arm Strength.

The Influential Rank elite used as a comparison with Ralston was China’s Barren Murderer.

After all, the martial arts they practiced allowed them to clearly display the effects of these two great attributes.

Barren Murderer had Undying King of Abyss Art, which was even stronger than Dragon and Elephant Wisdom Palm. At Grandmaster Realm, Undying King of Abyss Art’s highest defense was four hundred more points compared to Dragon and Elephant Wisdom Palm. Also, its effects in absorbing damage was higher than Dragon and Elephant Wisdom Palm!

His equipment was better than Ralson, and he also practiced Heaven and Earth Great Shift, which was something many people lusted over.

But Barren Murderer’s Affinity was lower than two hundred points.

When they fought against Happy, Ralston can remain safe, but Barren Murderer died straightaway!

Even though this was not a firm conclusion, everyone can tell just where the problem was from the things the Prophet listed.

Affinity and attributes!

Barren Murderer’s advantage was in defense, but he paid too much attention in an overall development because he always wanted to be like Zhao Zilong, who managed to behead his enemy even when he was in an army of ten thousand. Hence, he did not focus all his attention on Undying King of Abyss Art and body fortifications that will train up Affinity, which was why he seemed to have all his attributes jumbled up, and there was nothing special about him, or at least, he was much weaker compared to the people on Great People Rank.

Of course, Ralston’s inborn Affinity was an advantage that no one was to ignore.

As for Body Movements, the Prophet also delved into this.

But neither of the players he listed were Chinese players.

India’s Snake King Gupta liked snakes since he was young, and after he entered the game, he focused on beast taming techniques, but at the same time, he also practiced various lightness skills.

Some of these lightness skills were good at fleeing on plain ground, some good at allowing him to move around in the forest, and some were suitable for him to jump high into the air. In other words, he practiced a variety of lightness skills.

In the end, Gupta managed to easily have his Body Movement surpass three hundred and fifty points. In fact, when all his lightness skills were fused together, he created a lightness skill that will allow him to bring out the most terrifying speed on any terrain. He moved like a wild beast, but also like a ghost taking a walk on the land, and with his skill in controlling snakes, he killed multiple Indian players.

The other elite with great Body Movement was relatively unknown, but he was the only Russian player who managed to escape from Russian player Lion Bear Mark.

Lion Bear Mark’s Arm Strength was at around four hundred points, and his hands can easily tear apart a Life and Death Realm player’s body without using any martial arts or any qi.

He can attack so fast that no one can have the chance or strength to fight back.

Russian player Chet’s Body Movement was at three hundred and fifty points, and while his name was strange, he managed to easily avoid Lion Bear’s attack.

[There is no martial art that is the greatest in the world, only the martial art that suits you the most.

[As long as you can discover your own advantage, you can successfully become a member on Great People Rank and become an elite that will catch the attention of the entire world!]

The Prophet’s final words on the ranking board caused people to think deeply.

As Silver Wolf continued reading, his expression turned solemn, and he seemed to have gained some understanding over them.

“The martial arts that suits you best…? It’s a new saying, alright.”

Happy frowned slightly.

A long time ago, countless players worked hard for ultimate techniques, believing that only with ultimate techniques will they be able to become outstanding and do something amazing in the game.

The viewpoint on attributes was something that even when Happy was in his previous life, had not been completely accepted and gained widespread recognition.

‘It’s brought forward again…’

This was something that should be gradually discovered one year later, but now, someone mentioned it ahead of time, again.

Once this viewpoint was recognized and noticed by the masses, the progress in World of Martial Arts will increase once more, and the second player to reach Moksha Realm will appear very soon.

And players like Chet and Ralston will slowly increase over the next few months.

In other words, once everyone acknowledged the Prophet’s analysis and viewpoint, World of Martial Arts will enter a great era at the end of the second year since its launch. There will be multiple elites everywhere, and they will each have their own unique set of skills.

In Happy’s previous life, the world only reached this stage after more than three years, but now, it happened one year ahead of schedule.

Happy said nothing. Instead, he sucked in a deep breath, turned his head around, and looked outside his apartment. While he made deductions in his head, he subconsciously tapped against his table.

Silver Wolf soon noticed this scene.

“The elites in the world haven’t begun contacting and connecting with each other yet… Happy, why do I feel as if you’re a little uneasy?” Silver Wolf sounded a little surprised.

Even though Happy’s rank was not really at the top on the International Influential Rank of the Strong, it was still fact that he was powerful, and no one will be able to do much against him. Besides, there were quite a number of players, regardless of whether they were Chinese players or foreign players, who questioned the ranking board and stated that it was not a true reflection of strength.

Silver Wolf did not believe that the ranking board was the cause for Happy’s unease.

But when he saw Happy frowning and thinking deeply, he gave off an invisible wave of solemnity and somberness.

Even when Mu Clan faced grave danger, he never saw Happy act in such a serious and hesitant fashion.

Happy said nothing. When he heard Silver Wolf’s voice, Happy’s eyes gradually gained focus, making him appear to have come to a decision. His eyes shone with resolution and determination.

“Big Brother Silver Wolf, help me contact Phoenix Dances and the Three Lonely Wolves. Tell them to come to the base as soon as possible.”

Silver Wolf was stunned silent.

He saw Happy get up with great determination and head to his bedroom. Then, Happy said something without even turning his head around, “If they came by before I’m out, tell them to wait for me for a while. I have something important to announce.”

Silver Wolf seemed to have figured out some things based on Happy’s words, and he asked just in time, “Do I invite Xu Yao?”

Happy froze.
