Chapter 1223

In the second match, Gu Ding's opponent was a guy who was less than a meter tall. He was dressed in a black robe and looked like a preschooler.

However, Gu Ding dared not underestimate any of his opponents. He remembered that his opponent was a Sand Tribesman who cultivated the Sand Rule. He had extremely strong defense and ranged attack abilities.

In a way, his ability was very suitable for arena battles.

He was also one of the most difficult opponents among the first batch of thirty people that Gu Ding had picked.

The Sand Tribesmen grew up in a harsh environment, so they were more cautious.

The Sand Tribesman did not say a word when he saw Gu Ding on the other side of the arena. Instead, he checked Gu Ding's record immediately.

When he saw that Gu Ding had won the first battle and that he was the second challenger, the Sand Tribesman frowned slightly under his mask.

Under normal circumstances, newcomers were easy to bully, but there were exceptions. It was not like this had never happened in the past.

There had been a few times when a newcomer had defeated hundreds of challengers.

Sixteen eras ago, there was a guy named Burgess who had won more than three hundred battles.

Seeing Gu Ding's first victory, the Sand Tribesman looked at Gu Ding warily.

Gu Ding had heard of the Sand Tribesman's cautiousness. Especially when he saw the look in his opponent's eyes, Gu Ding realized that the opponent in front of him was not like the careless guy from before. This battle would not be easy.

Sure enough, before Gu Ding could attack, the Sand Tribesman moved first.

Usually, when challenging a newcomer, the challenger would wait for the newcomer to attack first to show his magnanimity. However, the Sand Tribesman did not care whether his actions were magnanimous or not. He did not want to lose to a newcomer, so he chose to attack first.

The entire arena was soon filled with gravel.

Not only was the floor of the arena covered with gravel, but every corner of the air was also covered with floating gravel.

"This guy is a tough nut to crack!" Gu Ding's figure instantly disappeared from where he stood.

Gu Ding's movement was not affected by the gravel, but he could clearly feel that some of the gravel stuck to his body as he moved. Although it was not enough to affect his movements, the amount of gravel attached to it was increasing.

Gu Ding had done his homework on his opponent's battle videos in advance. He knew that his opponent's move would cause the gravel to stick to his opponent's body over time. Moreover, the weight of the gravel would continue to increase until the opponent was completely wrapped in a layer of sand, turning into a sand sculpture and losing the ability to move. This method could only be broken by a purifying type of divine ability, but Gu Ding did not have such a divine ability.

"I have to end this quickly!"

Gu Ding knew that the longer this battle dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for him. This was because his body would only become heavier and his speed would become slower and slower.

Gu Ding did not hold back at all. Once again, he threw a heavy punch at his opponent with all his might.

However, just as Gu Ding's fist was less than twenty centimeters away from the mask, a layer of gravel suddenly appeared and blocked Gu Ding's attack.

"Sand layer defense?"

Gu Ding had seen this defensive method in his opponent's previous battles. He did not hesitate at all as he moved quickly and circled around his opponent. The angle of his attack was also getting more and more tricky.

However, the Sand Tribe member just stood there quietly, not even moving a finger. Every time Gu Ding attacked, a layer of gravel automatically blocked his attack.

After a thousand consecutive heavy blows, none of them worked. However, Gu Ding did not stop at all as he continued to attack at high speed.

Just as he had attacked more than three thousand times, Gu Ding's arm suddenly enlarged without any warning. He tore through the Sand Tribe member's defense with one swipe and sent him flying.

It was a divine ability that he had not used for a long time — Super Shady Palm.

In the process of fighting the anonymous challenger, Gu Ding finally changed the way he used to fight against his opponent's divine abilities.

He realized that the combination of Divine Abilities and ordinary moves could produce an even more unexpected effect.

That was exactly what he was doing now. Without any warning, he directly used his divine abilities.

After his successful attack, Gu Ding did not stop at all. His two giant arms bombarded his opponent in a frenzy. Blow after blow, the frequency of his attacks was even higher than his previous normal attacks.

The Sand Tribe member seemed to be aware of the danger. He even directly removed the gravel attached to Gu Ding's body and mobilized all the gravel to defend himself.

However, it was too late. Gu Ding had completely turned the tide of the battle. His defense did not last long before it was broken by Gu Ding again.

After three minutes of continuous bombardment, the layer of gravel he used to defend himself completely collapsed.

After a few blows from the giant arms, he completely lost consciousness.

[Winner: Gu Ding!]

The second victory began to build up Gu Ding's confidence.

The opponent in the first battle was too careless and was defeated by him before he could show his strength. It could be said that the victory was mostly due to luck. In the second battle, Gu Ding had truly used his strength to win because his opponent had fought him with all his might.

After watching his opponent disappear from the ring, Gu Ding finally removed his divine abilities. After this battle, he rested for half an hour before ending his rest and taking the initiative to request for a third battle.

In the third battle, his opponent was a woman. She was an expert who excelled in speed and was one of the most difficult people to deal with among the thirty people.

It took Gu Ding more than twenty minutes to win the battle. Then, he rested for more than half an hour before starting the fourth battle.

In the fourth battle, his opponent was from a tribe that had an innate advantage in strength. After almost getting injured the first time he tried to test his opponent's strength, Gu Ding chose to avoid a head-on confrontation and easily won the battle.

Then, the fifth battle, the sixth battle, the seventh battle …

Gu Ding's victories were simply unstoppable. He was improving in every battle.

The thirty battles that Gu Ding had scheduled were all completed within eighteen hours. After winning thirty battles in a row, Gu Ding did not stop. Instead, he continued to choose his opponents and challenged them one by one.

After more than seventy hours of sleepless nights, Gu Ding's winning streak finally reached a terrifying number — a hundred!

[Congratulations, Mr. Gu Ding, for winning a hundred battles in a row. Under normal circumstances, a hundred battles in a row will triple your experience points. However, since you are still a newbie, your experience points will be multiplied tenfold. The bonus of the winning streak and the newbie bonus are stacked together. You have obtained 10,000 experience points!]

Just as Gu Ding received the notification, the rest of the True King Palace members received another notification as well.

[Congratulations, newbie Gu Ding, for winning a hundred battles in the Arena!]

As soon as the news appeared, the entire True King Hall almost exploded.
