Li Rui stepped into the arena, feeling frustrated by the apparent lack of rules around him.
He had to find someone to ask about the situation; if he could really go all out, it would be surprising if a bunch of experts didn’t covet his abilities!
“Excuse me, are there any rules in this arena?” Li Rui asked.
The steward in charge of the arena glanced at Li Rui, perhaps looking down on him due to his shabby appearance, and casually replied with a dismissive tone.
“The rules are over there! Go check for yourself.”
Li Rui walked straight over and saw only one line of text on a large board: As long as you don’t die, you can admit defeat.
Seeing this, Li Rui immediately felt delighted; this undoubtedly added a bit of experience to his training!
Looking around, most people seemed to be at the Cleansing Realm, with one or two oddballs at the Core Formation stage, and they appeared to be older than Li Rui by a level.
Perhaps reaching the Core Formation stage was a lifelong pursuit for some people.
“Hey! What are you doing? This isn’t a game; hurry up and leave!” A Fat Black Man seemed to notice Li Rui's intentions and repeatedly tried to stop him.
“Why can’t I be in the arena?” Li Rui asked in confusion.
Little did they know, the Fat Black Man muttered two words: danger. Li Rui couldn’t help but smile awkwardly; hadn’t he faced enough dangers over the years? What was this little bit compared to that? Besides, he could always admit defeat.
Seeing that he couldn’t stop Li Rui, the Fat Black Man let him be.
“Where did that crazy old man go? After entering the arena, he seems to have vanished from my sight; it’s really frustrating.”
Li Rui shook his head with a wry smile and calmly stepped into the Arena.
A lifeless appearance is truly uncomfortable. Since the moment Li Rui stepped into Danhui, it seemed as if someone was watching him.
He couldn't sense where the other party was, but in a place filled with powerful individuals, he couldn't use the Azure Dragon Breathing Technique unless absolutely necessary; the consequences of being discovered would be unimaginable.
The first round in the Arena was a free-for-all among fifty participants, with no alliances formed—only the law of the jungle! Many were challenging those at the bottom of Cleansing the Marrow, though some did band together to defeat a lone opponent.
However, Li Rui's presence seemed to be at an all-time low. Perhaps it was because he had just entered the Cleansing Realm; those around him looked down on him without realizing how terrifying his combat abilities were.
While others ignored Li Rui, he also didn't waste his energy looking for someone to fight.
In just thirty minutes, the number of participants had dwindled from fifty to twenty. It seemed that someone had marked Li Rui as a target, wanting to kick him out of the arena at any moment.
"Kid, I really don't know why you're still standing here. You'd better leave; this isn't child's play."
Standing in front of Li Rui was a Black Youth who seemed quite adept at stirring up trouble. From what had just happened, he had rallied several people to defeat the "lone" fighters and clearly had some brains.
Yet his strength was only at the fourth level of Cleansing the Marrow, and here he was trying to show off in front of Li Rui.
Moreover, it appeared that this guy had called others to launch a sneak attack from behind, causing Li Rui's brow to furrow.
If it weren't for his sturdy physique, his bones might have been shattered by now! He really hadn't expected such tactics.
Li Rui took a few steps back, assessing his opponent's current situation: one at the fifth level of Cleansing the Marrow and another at the fourth level teaming up against him.
It was hard to understand how they could bully someone like that.
Some people present were feeling indignant on behalf of Li Rui.
"To the victor go the spoils! There are no means that cannot be employed." Black Youth smiled calmly, seemingly very confident about defeating Li Rui.
However, in the next moment, the team of Black Youth suddenly fell down, completely unaware of what had happened.
This...
"I didn't expect that injury to actually improve my strength quite a bit!"
Li Rui's attack was like a ghost, and he hadn't even drawn his Water Fire Staff. The sudden assault caught everyone's attention and made them take Li Rui seriously.
Some even frowned, wondering where this freak had come from.
In an instant, no one wanted to provoke Li Rui anymore; his earlier move had been too fast. With just one attack using Qi transformation into liquid, he had overwhelmed two mid-level Cleansing the Marrow practitioners.
Moreover, he hadn't even drawn his weapon. If only...
An hour passed, and the total number settled at nine. The tenth person seemed to have encountered a minor issue and couldn't make it.
Given Li Rui's situation, if he left now, he might earn some Wind Coins, but he chose not to do so. He wanted to see where his limits truly lay.
Besides, a small amount of Wind Coins didn't seem sufficient to meet his needs.
The next battle would be in the Arena. It was unclear what kind of luck Li Rui had, but he was directly placed as the ninth contender, meaning he wouldn't have to compete in the first round of the Arena and was automatically among the top five.
"I didn't expect to receive such treatment; I really can't understand it," Li Rui murmured.
Li Rui hadn't anticipated that in the blink of an eye, only five people would remain in the arena! They still needed to have the final showdown, but his luck couldn't possibly be that good again; it was someone else's turn this time.
Li Rui estimated the current situation on the field: two at the Core Formation Stage and three at the peak of Cleansing the Marrow. It was indeed a fierce battle!
"What is your name?"
"Li Rui!"
"That's a nice name, but I wonder how strong you really are?"
Li Rui smiled calmly; he would find out soon enough. A peak Cleansing the Marrow, huh?
In the blink of an eye, the two became entangled in combat. Everyone present was astonished to see a person at the second layer of Cleansing the Marrow actually overpowering someone at the peak of Cleansing the Marrow! Many rubbed their eyes in disbelief at what was happening before them.
"I didn't expect your strength to be so impressive, and you haven't even drawn your weapon. I concede."
"It was just luck." At that moment, Li Rui had already become one of the top three, unable to help but think.
Even Li Rui himself had not anticipated that his next opponents would be two from the Cleansing Realm. The other two at the Core Formation Stage had been eliminated, and suddenly a strong sense of crisis surged within him; it was an extremely unsettling feeling.
