Chapter 60: Perfecting RKO!

The contents of the message revealed pretty understandably that Tristan Black didn't want Arnold to lose to Jerry Blaze in their championship rematch next week. Arnold understood the fact that the Grindhouse Alpha Champion really wanted to fight him.(Max_Fury: Sure...).

With a soft sigh, Arnold sent a reply and dropped his phone on a small table at the side of his bed.

The second battle royal match was still ongoing in the arena, and it was already afternoon at that moment. Having absolutely nothing to do, Arnold decided to visit the training ring and practice RKO.

After obtaining this move, he hadn't had enough to try it. S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Before going to the training ring, he visited Mark in his room to check on his well-being. Fortunately, he hadn't sustained any crucial injuries, which was actually the reason why he wasn't in the hospital at that moment.

"You did a great job out there... Well done, Mark," Arnold tried to praise him just to make him feel better, but Mark was unfortunately having a crazy feeling.

"I wasn't attentive to notice the incoming attack. Yet again, Thane Ryder disgraced me like he always did. I'm such a loser," Mark cried.

This was the main reason Arnold gets mad at Mark often. He always had to blame himself every single time, ignoring the remarkable potential that he possessed.

With this attitude, he knew that Mark wouldn't progress forward, and he had tried to convince him... Mark just wouldn't listen.

Every time, he always had a reason to mount blame on himself, killing any hint of motivation that arose.

"I have said it before and I would say it again," Arnold glared at his friend. "While you still lose, you are such a wonderful fighter with great potential. You only need time to improve yourself and get better. Trust me, if you stop blaming yourself for every misfortune every single day, then you will become a better person," Arnold gave this advice, hoping that Mark could listen.

'If he wouldn't listen, it's fine. I will just sit back and watch him lose.'

Although this came as a result of his anger, Arnold didn't mean to think such a way.

This advice was a full copy of what the Pro Wrestling System had always told him when he was down. Arnold wanted to use it to impact people's lives... Hopefully, if it had worked out for him, then it should work for others.

With a nod that almost didn't seem real, Mark responded to his friend.

"I believe you, Max. I will do my best to be among the best. I will keep working, and not blame myself anymore," just like other times, Mark promised with a bold before seeing Arnold nodding and walking away.

"This is the fourth time you are saying this, Mark. I hope you aren't making empty promises like before!" He shouted upon leaving Mark's room.

...

[You should keep delivering the RKO to the forged humanoid structure in different styles. I would calculate the effectiveness and pressure of the attack after every attempt. And you can only stop when you reach 100%.]

"I have no issues with that, Advocate. Let's do this," Arnold reacted confidently with an excited smile.

[Sure... Ready?]

"Sure..."

[Go!]

Arnold walked over to a forged humanoid structure facing his direction at the center of the ring with a charge. He had made short practice on how to lock an opponent's neck with his arms before launching the move, so that shouldn't be a problem to begin with.

Grabbing the neck of the forged humanoid structure with both facing directly in the same direction of the humanoid structure, Arnold thrust himself forward and fell with the opponent's head still grabbed tightly in his arms.

At that instant, the forged humanoid structure fell face-first onto the mat, causing a soft thud.

[40% Effectiveness... Try again.]

Arnold shrugged, but it was too early to start feeling bad. More trails are still to be made...

After all, that was what the Pro Wrestling System is all about.

Try, try, try, and try until you achieve your goals. Giving up is never an option.

Determined, Arnold continued to deliver the RKO to the forged humanoid figure. Fortunately, every attempt got better, showing that he was making progress.

[43%. Try again.]

[48%. Try again.]

[49%. Again.]

It was only a matter of time before he would reach the required score to be regarded as a perfect user of this move. It was visibly seeming like an eternity having just to progress with only a few units adding to the records.

No matter how Arnold tried, he needed to apply more effort. He had come to discover that not only the status of a move could take down an opponent, but the Attack Power was the most important.

If much pressure isn't added to the move, enhancing its effectiveness, then that move would have less vitality...

[88%. Good job. Try again.]

"Shiiii" Arnold gritted his gasp through the tiny holes in the gaps.

"Uhh. AHHH!"

*Slam*

[93%. Great. Again.]

"AHHH!"

[94%. Again.]

It got to a stage when Arnold began to groan after delivery. This was a result of the unforgiving pressure he had applied to make the success of the pursuit possible.

[92%. Don't reduce the effort...]

[90%. This was lower than the previous, host.]

[87%. A disappointing drawback. Try not to slack any further.]

[84%.]

Arnold noticed the sudden regression in his progress, almost causing him to go crazy. He once had a broken heart, seeing that his efforts just weren't enough.

However, when the spirit of relentlessness soared back into his mind, a sudden resurrection of courage and strength followed.

Raged, Arnold grabbed the neck of the forged humanoid structure and struck like a bolt of lightning. Landing on the thick mat with the forged humanoid figure's neck falling unbalanced, a huge loud boom could be heard.

"Tfff... AHHH!!!"

[100%! Goal reached. You have successfully perfected RKO (S-class).]

[Congratulations, host.]

[You have gained 10 points to your Attack Power.]

[You have gained 3 points to your Agility.]

[Kudos. Good job.]

Hearing the system completely announce his achievement, one thought came to Arnold's mind.

"How I wish I could see a highflyer... A flying RKO would be quite useful in such cases, hehe."

Playfully but ambitiously, Max Fury hoped.
