Chapter 1225

When Gu Ding's winning streak reached two hundred and ninety-nine, many people felt that the battle in the three hundredth round would be no different from the previous ones.

This was because Gu Ding had defeated all his opponents along the way, and no one had been able to last more than ten minutes in a battle.

That was what everyone thought until Gu Ding's opponent in the three hundredth round was sent into the ring.

However, when the figure appeared, everyone's expression froze.

That was because the figure was a man in a red robe.

In True King City, everyone below True King Level wore a black robe and a white mask. Once one reached True King Level, the black robe would be replaced by a red robe, and the mask would turn silver.

It was unlikely that a True King Level powerhouse would participate in the Newcomer Challenge because becoming a True King meant that one had completed a complete path. In other words, even if one suppressed his cultivation level and could not use the path comprehension directly, it would put him in an invincible position.

It was like asking a physics professor to solve a junior high physics problem. Although he was not allowed to solve the problem using knowledge outside of junior high, it was not difficult at all for him.

Moreover, a True King Level powerhouse would not care about 1 experience point.

What Gu Ding found strange was that he clearly remembered every challenger's information, and none of them were True King Level powerhouses.

The appearance of the red-robed True King puzzled the higher-ups of True King City who were watching the battle.

Many of the spectators were also angry on Gu Ding's behalf. For a moment, the entire arena was in an uproar.

"Don't you think it's embarrassing for a True King to challenge a newcomer?!"

"That's not fair!"

"Get down here!"

…

In fact, the people inside the ring could not hear what was going on outside. Gu Ding checked his opponent's information immediately.

When he saw the name and battle record, he was stunned for a moment, but he immediately knew what was going on.

"You're Guillermo. You must have just broken through to True King Level, right?"

"I just broke through about ten minutes ago. I didn't even have time to get used to my new body. I saw the countdown dialog box for the challenge and clicked on it out of habit … You should have seen my battle record. I'm not very good at actual combat, so I rarely challenge others. It's always others who challenge me, and I usually lose more than I win."

"More than ten days ago, when I saw that you had joined the True King Palace, I casually clicked on the challenge request like everyone else. After all, no matter how small a mosquito's leg was, it was still meat. For someone like me who wasn't good at fighting, every bit of experience was extremely difficult to obtain. I never expected that after watching more than twenty of your battles, I would be slightly moved and go into seclusion. In the end, this seclusion lasted for more than ten days, and I directly broke through to the True King Realm … "

"When I was teleported to the arena and saw my robe, I realized that I had made a grave mistake … As a True King, I shouldn't have appeared in the arena of the Newcomer Challenge."

Although the sound from the arena could not be transmitted into the arena, the sound from the arena could be clearly transmitted out. Only after everyone heard it did they understand what had happened.

"Damn, it's actually Gilmore. He's been a member of True Monarch's Palace for nearly an entire epoch, but he hasn't even participated in the arena tournament three hundred times. This guy used to be so weak! "

"That coward Gilmore actually broke through to the True King Realm?! The heavens are blind! "

"Even Guillermo has broken through to the True King stage. Looks like I really have to work harder in my cultivation."

…

To a certain extent, Gilmore could be considered a minor celebrity. Many people knew of him, and some had even beaten him up in the arena.

Everyone's impression of Gilmore was that he was timid, afraid of trouble, and a weak-willed coward …

Meanwhile, in the arena, Gu Ding was a little surprised after hearing Gilmore's words.

"You're saying that my battle touched you, and that's why you broke through to the True King Realm?"

"That's right. That's why I really have to thank you!" Gilmore's voice did not sound like he was joking.

However, Gu Ding became even more confused. "However, I'm just a Heavenly God, and my cultivation hasn't even reached the Lord-Level. I can only use one hundred and eighty of the three hundred and sixty secret rule inscriptions. You were a seven-star Lord powerhouse before this, so how did I touch you? "

"It's not your cultivation that touched me, it's your fighting style. To be more precise, it's your personality that touched me, "Gilmore explained. "I was an orphan since I was young, and I grew up under the watchful eyes of others. Even after I entered the cultivation world, my timid personality has never changed. This is also the reason why I haven't broken through to the True King Realm for so long. I'm afraid of failure. I've always been thinking, 'What if I fail?'

"But your battle made me see your fearless spirit of advancing courageously. Although your cultivation isn't strong, you're not afraid of any opponent, even when you know that many of your opponents are Lord powerhouses, and it's just that their cultivation is suppressed. When I saw you fighting in the arena, I kept asking myself, 'Why can't I do it?' Even if I only learned a tenth of your bravery, it's enough for me. "

"It's precisely because of this reason that I chose to go into seclusion to break through. Then, what you see now is the result. I appeared in the challenge ring wearing a red robe. However, this isn't where I should be. I surrender! " As soon as Gilmore surrendered, a confirmation dialog box popped up in front of him. He was about to press it when Gu Ding called out to him.

"Don't surrender. Let's fight! I know you're not good at fighting, but you're already a True King Realm now. Your strength should be much stronger than before, "Gu Ding suggested.

Gilmore seemed a little hesitant. One reason was that he did not like fighting, and the other was that he did not want Gu Ding to lose to him. He did not want Gu Ding's three-hundred-win streak to end. Although he was not good at fighting, becoming a True King Realm was not a joke.

"A person's strength comes from their heart. Only when your heart is strong will you be truly strong. Otherwise, no matter how high your cultivation is or how strong your combat effectiveness is, in a real battle, you'll only become the prey of a powerhouse.

"Now that you've taken the first brave step and obtained an unimaginable reward, believe me. Bring out your courage and take the second step, the third step … As long as you're more determined with each step you take, you'll become a true powerhouse! " It won't be long before you become a true powerhouse! "Gu Ding grinned at Gilmore.

Gilmore had an illusion that Gu Ding's body seemed to be glowing. He could even faintly feel the heat dispel the haze in his heart …

After a moment, he finally nodded. "Then let's fight! I will bring out my strongest strength to fight with you. You have to be careful! "

"I'll fight you to the end!"

Gu Ding watched as his opponent closed the surrender interface. His fighting spirit began to boil wildly!
