Chapter 1224

For a long time, challenging newcomers had been a pleasure for many people in True King City. This kind of challenge opportunity was not easy to come by, and it was rare for newcomers to join in a hundred years.

Moreover, they could get the thrill of winning a battle and earn experience points, so why not?

Of course, not all newcomers would not win a battle. Some of the stronger newcomers could also win the battle if they encountered an opponent that they could restrain, but the probability of this was very small. Moreover, the challenger who lost the battle would be laughed at by others for a long time.

However, there were only a handful of people in the entire True King Hall who rose so strongly in the newcomer battles like Gu Ding. One had to know that the True King Palace had to select people from countless mortal planes to join. However, in the thousands of eras since the True King Palace's establishment until now, there were only around ten people who had displayed terrifying combat strength in the newcomer arena. However, there were only five people who had won a hundred battles in a row, and Gu Ding was the sixth.

The last time such a newcomer appeared was sixteen eras ago. It had been so long that many people had forgotten about it.

Gu Ding's strong rise finally brought back the memories of many of the old guys in the True King Hall sixteen eras ago. They had seen the scene sixteen eras ago with their own eyes, and it was so similar to the scene caused by Gu Ding now.

As a philosopher once said, history was always surprisingly similar.

Gu Ding's hundred battles in a row attracted the attention of many of the higher-ups in the True King Hall. It also caused many people who had issued challenge requests to start panicking. They were all worried that they would become Gu Ding's next stepping stone.

However, a hundred battles in a row was far from the end he could reach. Many people in the True King Hall knew this.

Gu Ding did not stop his winning streak. He only briefly checked the system notification and his eleven thousand experience points before he continued to enter combat mode.

After the news was sent out, many people entered Gu Ding's arena as spectators. In an instant, the empty arena was quickly filled.

Those who could not enter the arena chose to watch the live broadcast online.

In the arena, Gu Ding's winning streak continued. He was like a super boss in a game. Batch after batch of brave people charged at him, but they fell one after another.

One hundred and first, one hundred and second, one hundred and third …

One challenge after another passed, and Gu Ding remained standing.

Discussions about Gu Ding could be heard everywhere in True King City.

"He's clearly a newcomer. How did he do it?"

"His method of battle doesn't seem like something someone who hasn't even become an Overgod can do."

"Heavens, after seeing his battle, I feel like all the battles I fought before I became a Lord were just child's play …"

"He's already won one hundred and ninety-seven matches in a row … A bunch of useless guys. Can someone powerful come and end his victory?! I just bet 1000 EXP that he won't be able to win 200 matches in a row! This one thousand EXP is going to go down the drain … "

Another three days passed, and Gu Ding had won one hundred and ninety-seven matches in a row.

His winning streak brought the long-dormant gambling industry back to life.

A big dealer had set up a gambling device to let everyone guess where Gu Ding's winning streak would end, which attracted a lot of people to participate. The 200th round was also the first round point.

More than sixty percent of the people who participated in the bet believed that Gu Ding would not be able to win two hundred matches in a row.

The reason why they thought so was that the 100 consecutive victories made everyone vigilant. Moreover, Gu Ding had placed the people with the weakest battle records in the arena at the beginning. The further he went, the stronger the challengers would be.

Another reason was that the odds of Gu Ding not being able to complete 200 consecutive victories were very high, reaching 1 to 10. Many people were willing to bet on this round to take advantage of the odds.

However, regardless of whether everyone was willing or not, the results came out very quickly.

After completing one hundred and ninety-seven consecutive victories, Gu Ding won three more matches in a row, completing his 200 consecutive victories.

The system notification was once again sent to the inbox of all True King Temple members.

Gu Ding originally thought that his experience points would increase by another ten thousand. However, he did not expect the system notification to say that 200 consecutive victories would increase his experience points by twenty times. Therefore, on top of the original eleven thousand EXP, he gained an additional twenty thousand EXP.

The 200 consecutive victories caused a sensation once again. However, for Gu Ding, other than the extra experience points, it was no different from one hundred and ninety-nine victories. He only slightly adjusted his state of mind before continuing the challenge.

After watching a hundred battles, many people had a new understanding of Gu Ding.

In a secret conference room, a group of golden-robed people sat in a circle.

Above the conference table was a live broadcast projection of Gu Ding's battles.

The discussion sounded like they were talking about Gu Ding.

"His temperament is really rare among young people. He's not confused by external things. Even after winning so many battles in a row and gaining so much attention, he didn't get arrogant at all. He almost didn't stop and continued to the next challenge. "

"He has a strong learning ability. He can quickly absorb the strengths of his opponent and digest them into a part of himself. With every battle he fights, he grows. This kind of guy is simply too terrifying. "

"His fighting style changes according to the changes of his opponent. He can control the rhythm of the battle every time and attack his opponent's weaknesses so that his opponent can't fully display their strengths and then be defeated."

"Based on his current performance in all aspects, he is indeed worth training." The golden-robed leader nodded, then turned his head to look to his left. "X, as his referee, aren't you going to say anything?"

The person called X was also in a golden robe. On his golden mask, there was a big black X pattern.

He spread his hands. "Everyone has said what I wanted to say. I can't think of anything else to add."

"So, you're not going to be his mentor? As a referee, you have the right to choose. "

"I'm not meant to be a mentor. I know that best. I have no objection to anyone here being a mentor." X's answer was a little unexpected.

"This kid could become the next Burgess. Are you sure you want to give up the title of a future Imperial Mentor to someone else?" The person who asked this was a woman sitting on the right side of the head of the table.

"Anna, you said it yourself. He's a future Imperial Mentor. Compared to trusting others with uncertain results, I'd rather believe that I'll be crowned Emperor earlier than him. No matter what, the title of Imperial Mentor is not as good as Emperor Venerable, right? " X said as he leaned back on the swivel chair and spread his hands. "I'm not interested in being a mentor. Anyone of you can be it, I don't care. Please don't drag me into this topic again, thank you. "

After that, the meeting fell into a state of intense debate. Of the twelve participants in the meeting, everyone except X wanted to be Gu Ding's mentor.

However, until Gu Ding won more than two hundred and eighty rounds, there was no conclusion to the debate.

"How about this, each of you send an application to Gu Ding stating your willingness to be a mentor. Also, state your advantages and let him choose for himself." On the third day of the meeting, X finally could not help but make a suggestion.

"But more than one mentor applying for the same student has never happened before. Moreover, we can't do it without losing face … "

"Don't you want to be a future Imperial Mentor? Is it more important to become an Imperial Preceptor, or is it more important to have a little face? "X's words left everyone speechless.

After a moment of discussion, everyone agreed to adopt X's suggestion, and the meeting finally ended.

Everyone left the meeting room.

X had only taken a few steps when Anna caught up with him.

It was not until everyone had left that Anna asked him, "X, do you know something about Gu Ding that we don't?"
