Chapter 1008: Condolences

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Just like this, Wang Yu was occupied in the arena for the whole day as he did nothing else but fight again the members from Green Plum.

The end result was as expected. Even though these guys had made progress, they were still far from actually posing a challenge to Wang Yu.

“Are you coming again tomorrow?” Green Plum Wine and his comrades were a little reluctant to see Wang Yu leave even though all they got were beatings from him.

“Nope, another day perhaps. I have already completed my quest.” Wang Yu quickly accepted their friend requests.

“Quest? What kind of quest?” Green Plum Wine inquired curiously.

“Attaining a one hundred–match winning streak!” Wang Yu replied faintly.

“A one hundred–match winning streak?” There was a collective gasp in the air.

He was indeed an overpowered player, even the quest he got was so ridiculously challenging.

“Well, if you guys have nothing more, I will take my leave. My wife is calling me to go to bed!” Wang Yu quipped.

“Nothing more…” The rest of the players were hesitant to continue troubling Wang Yu and waved his away.

“Well, let’s play together when we have time!”

Wang Yu went offline after that.

The next morning, Wang Yu came out of the arena and went back into the small alley to hand in his quest.

The old man waiting for him was extraordinarily spirited at that moment. Not even waiting for Wang Yu to start the conversation he said, “Not bad! Since you have been through one hundred consecutive matches, are you now more familiar with the fighting styles of other classes?”

“Yes, teacher. I have learnt a lot from this experience yet I am still muddled and cannot find a way to break through,” Wang Yu recited his lines and replied.

Hermit continued, “There is a myriad of different boxing techniques so the way to master it is via a comprehensive understanding of these techniques. The reason that you have not been able to break through is because your skills have always exceeded your opponents and you are not being challenged to your limits. You should find a true grandmaster and break through your limits into a new martial arts boundary.”

<System Notification: You have completed the Awakening quest “Trial of the Brave”, first round, “Hundred Battles”, Quest Grade: S. You have received the title “Invincible” and the exclusive tool: “Martial God’s token”.>

Invincible (Title)

Invincible: Arena revenue +15%

Wang Yu took one look at the item effect from the title and kept it without another thought.

This title would be beneficial for players who frequent the arena on a daily basis. However, for a player for Wang Yu who rarely played there, it was practically useless.

As for the Martial God’s token, there was nothing special about it, there were no attributes to it, and only the name was introduced…

After the title and the token were collected, Wang Yu asked the man, “What should I do next?”

He replied, “Of course you have to visit a grandmaster. Although this grandmaster has a bad temper, he still had a good relationship with the Martial God in the past. I believe he will not make things difficult for you!”

“Make things difficult?” Wang Yu was taken aback as this seemed like a trap.

“Oh no, I mean he will definitely give you some pointers!” Hermit quickly corrected himself.

Wang Yu then received a quest notification.

<System Notification: You have received an Awakening quest “Trial of the Brave”, “Teacher of the Strong”, Quest grade S.>

Quest Details: Go to Dragon Island and find the strongest member of the dragon race, Dales and allow him to give you pointers.

Quest Tip: Dales is a cruel and violent Dragon, his strength is even higher than the sacred Dragon King. Under no circumstances should you anger him.

“Are you kidding me!!”

Seeing the quest details, Wang Yu felt that he was being played by the system.

Wang Yu was familiar with dragons and he even possessed a “Dragon Slayer” title so he was hated universally by the dragon race. Wang Yu knew better than anyone else how fearsome their strength was.

It the mainstream media, in novels or even in-game, dragons were portrayed as apex predators.

Wang Yu still remembered that fateful day in Sky Dragon when they encountered the BOSS City Blood Dragon God. He was so domineering yet he was nothing but a low level mixed blooded dragon in the hierarchy.

Even so, the difficulty of beating City Blood Dragon God was considered quite high by Wang Yu.

This was the case because dragons were born with a bloodline several grades above humans.

Furthermore, the Dragon King was an existence that was on par on that with the God of Light.

Dales’ strength was so overwhelming that it even surpassed the Dragon King. Wasn’t this quest simply supposed to be a level 50 awakening quest? Why was he tasked to do the impossible?

Wang Yu was also a wanted man by the dragon race. Wasn’t going to Dragon Island a death wish?

“Can I decline this quest?” Wang Yu inquired in a depressed tone.

“Sure!” Hermit nodded as he replied, “You have to bear the consequence of Quest Failure and you will be stuck at level 50 for a lifetime.”

“F*ck!” Wang Yu wiped off his sweat, “Can you change the challenger? Must I absolutely go to Dragon Island?”

Hermit explained, “Every hidden class awakening requires the most powerful mentor available to provide guidance to the player. Since the Martial God has long disappeared, I have to find someone who has combat ability on par with him so that he can bring out all the latent potential within you. If you want me to change mentor, I can do it but I cannot guarantee the final result.”

“This… Just treat that as a passing thought!” Wang Yu smiled.

Awakening was a monumental event. Hermit was actually a part of a group of previous hero professional mentors. From their refusal to provide guidance to Wang Yu, Wang Yu could infer the level of challenge he was up against.

Wang Yu only knew a limited number of top tier NPCs. The one at the top of his mind was Zeus. He was not a Pugilist so he might not be the most optimal mentor for Wang Yu.

Since things had reached this point, Wang Yu had exhausted his options.

He sighed and left the alley.

The specific location of Dragon Island lay in the east of the Heavenly Dragon City.

Wang Yu specifically asked Defiant Tiger who was familiar with Dragon Island to direct him. It seemed that there was a special teleportation formation in the courtyard of the City Lord Mansion in Heavenly Dragon City which connected directly to Dragon Island.

Defiant Tiger repeatedly advised Wang Yu on the perils of visiting Dragon Island.

Wang Yu exasperatedly replied, “What can I do? I am at my wit’s end. Furthermore, I am a wanted man here… If not for this shitty system, why would I even consider going to that backwater place.”

Defiant Tiger mourned for him privately.
