On the eighth floor of Purgatory Gate, Gu Ding, who had disappeared for most of the day, suddenly appeared in the Arena, which surprised many people.

Many people knew about Gu Ding's arrival, but there were also many who saw him go straight to the Cultivation Tower as soon as he appeared. Unexpectedly, he only stayed in the Cultivation Tower for less than a day before he appeared in the Arena.

Gu Ding's appearance once again attracted a lot of attention. Most of the onlookers were curious. Obviously, most of them were very interested in how Gu Ding survived the Confinement Space in Death Mode.

It was for this reason that many people chose to challenge Gu Ding. They wanted to find the answers they wanted by themselves.

There were also many people who looked at Gu Ding with ridicule in their eyes because in Purgatory Gate, every floor they went down meant a new beginning because the difference in combat effectiveness between each floor was too great. Even if you were invincible on the seventh floor of Purgatory Gate, your strength would at most be average on the eighth floor. This was an unchanging truth.

Unfortunately, Gu Ding was not an ordinary person. His strength could not be estimated by common sense. The people on the eighth floor had miscalculated this point, and they soon tasted the bitterness of it.

Gu Ding walked straight to the registration desk in the Arena. "Hello, I want to register for a challenge."

"Gu Ding, are you sure? The eighth floor is different from the previous floors. The weakest guy here is stronger than a first-rank True God. "The black-armored keeper obviously knew Gu Ding.

After experiencing the Confinement Space in Death Mode, Gu Ding had become a celebrity in Purgatory Gate. Even many prisoners on each floor knew who he was, not to mention the keepers of order who communicated with each floor without any obstacles.

"Yes, and I want to activate Group Battle Mode with a limit of one thousand people per challenge." Gu Ding nodded. Not only did he want to challenge, but he also wanted to activate Group Battle Mode. The keeper was stunned when he heard this.

"As for the group battle mode, I've applied to the Warden, and she's agreed. If you have any questions, you can ask her," Gu Ding said, then added.

"Please wait a moment …" The black-armored keeper immediately contacted the Warden and soon got an affirmative answer. Only then did he turn to look at Gu Ding. "Alright, I'll register you."

In the office building on the first floor of the Purgatory Gate, Victoria projected the video of the arena on the eighth floor of the Purgatory Gate onto the big screen.

Looking at Gu Ding's back, she rested her feet on the desk and smirked. "Gu Ding, that kid. His cultivation speed is terrifying. Two days ago, he was just a Two-star Extreme Deity. Now, he has broken through to One-star Half-Step True God. I'm afraid his aura is no weaker than a sixth-rank True God powerhouse. No wonder he's so fearless. "

"However, over the past two years, those fellows on the eighth floor have all died. After receiving the benefits of that stone stele, their strength had increased greatly. They were not so easy to deal with. Let me see what kind of brilliant performance you'll give me! "

The five strongest kings in the seventeenth floor of the Gates of Purgatory had also noticed this battle.

"As expected of that man's son. What terrifying combat effectiveness." Barsarkar's eyes lit up as he looked at the projection of Gu Ding on the screen.

"His battle prowess can be considered one of the best in many basic planes." Lotham nodded as well.

"It's a pity that the basic dimension we're in is just a beginner dimension. There are monsters like Gu Ding in a higher dimension." Although Bygraves was reluctant to admit it, he knew very well that his group of people were actually frogs at the bottom of a well.

In the arena on the eighth floor of the Gates of Purgatory, the registration of the black-armored keeper was quickly completed. "Ring 7."

Gu Ding nodded and turned to walk toward the ring.

Once he was in the ring, the system began to randomly match Gu Ding.

Soon, a voice came from the sky.

"Group Battle Mode activated. Number of challengers per time: 1,000."

"Rules of the challenge: The arena master wins the match if he defeats all 1,000 challengers. If anyone fails to complete the challenge, the challenge will be deemed a failure. In Group Battle Mode, there will be a penalty for failure. Each failure will deduct 10,000 points from the arena master … "

Many people below the ring were surprised when they heard the rules of Group Battle. They did not expect Gu Ding to dare to activate Group Battle Mode.

In the ring, the challengers selected by the system quickly entered the ring and looked at Gu Ding with unfriendly eyes. Arrogant people were never likable. In the eyes of the people on the eighth level, Gu Ding's behavior this time was arrogant.

However, they soon realized that they were wrong.

When all one thousand people had entered the ring, the system's voice came again. "The match begins!"

Almost as soon as the system's voice fell, Gu Ding unleashed his aura and crushed everyone in the ring, not sparing a single corner.

"Thump, thump …"

The sound of people falling to the ground could be heard. After Gu Ding unleashed his aura, not a single one of the one thousand challengers remained standing. All of them fell to the ground.

This scene left the group of people below the stage dumbfounded.

"This is aura suppression. How strong is Gu Ding? He managed to suppress thousands of opponents with just his aura! "

"Among the group of people who just came into the ring, the strongest was a third-rank True God, but they were crushed directly. This means that Gu Ding's strength is at least peak fifth-rank, or even sixth-rank … "

Obviously, there were many people on the eighth level of Purgatory Gates who had good eyesight. Most of them could tell that Gu Ding was using his oppressive aura. Many of them even used it to assess Gu Ding's true combat effectiveness.

Moreover, after seeing this scene, the expressions on the faces of the other people in the arena became solemn.

Even the referee was obviously stunned, and it took him a while to recover and announce the result. "Gu Ding wins!"

After everyone was carried off the ring, Gu Ding's challenge continued.

As Gu Ding had expected, the challenge went smoothly. Apart from a few fifth-rank True Gods who occasionally appeared in the middle, the oppressive aura caused everyone else to pass out immediately.

"Gu Ding, you're really strong, much stronger than I thought." During the sixteenth battle, the strongest person on the eighth floor, Elric, finally appeared. Unlike the other challengers Gu Ding had met before, he stood firmly in place and looked at Gu Ding with a burning gaze.

Not far behind him, there was another guy whose strength was fifth-rank True God, but that person seemed to be struggling.

"You guys are also much stronger than I thought. I thought that fourth-rank combat effectiveness was already the strongest on this floor. I didn't expect there to be a few fifth-rank combat effectiveness." Gu Ding shook his head and smiled.

"If it were more than two years ago, your guess would be correct. Our strength has only increased in the past two years, "Elric said honestly. "It's all thanks to the black stone tablet that suddenly appeared more than two years ago."

"Black stone tablet?!" Gu Ding immediately realized that this thing must be what Ingold wanted him to obtain to escape from Hell Gate.
