Chapter 1878: Arena
Chapter 1878: Arena
The sea of fire filled the sky, the isolated world, and the eternal loneliness.
Xi Yue closed her eyes and took a deep breath before saying feebly, “I’m fine, Weizhi. You should go and rest.”
Weizhi shook his head, “I’ll stay with you and watch you sleep.”
Xi Yue frowned, ready to refuse, but Weizhi’s determined expression stopped her. The androgynous youth’s strikingly handsome face radiated an unmistakable air of authority that allowed no room for argument.
Xi Yue let out a sigh and smiled helplessly before lying back down.
Weizhi channeled soothing spiritual power on his hands and gently massaged her temples.
She didn’t know if it was because she was accompanied by someone, or if the warmth on her temples told her that she was not alone.
This time, Xi Yue fell asleep smoothly and had no more nightmares.
Weizhi sat silently by her bedside the entire night, watching her peaceful sleeping face, as still as a statue.
…
Upon entering the Spirit Refining Domain on the following day, Xi Yue went to the arena.
Entering the arena competition requires an initial set of points. Typically, it takes a full month of soul foundation training to earn 50 points, granting both the right to challenge others and to be challenged.
The arena ranks were divided by points. Those with fewer than 200 points were considered Tier 1, while the second tier included those with 200 to 500 points. Each additional 500 points raised a rank. At the top of the leaderboard was 0, with tens of thousands of points and a rank marked as [Top Tier].
After gaining the right to challenge and be challenged, winning a match would earn a set amount of points. The number of points earned depended on the rank of the opponent the challenger faced.
For example, if a Tier 1 martial artist challenged someone who was also at Tier 1, he could only gain 20 points after winning.
But if he challenged a Tier 2 martial artist or cultivator, he would get 50 points after winning. The higher the rank, the faster his ranking would rise.
Take the example of the Maverick Swordsman—he climbed to third place on the arena leaderboard in just a few short years by repeatedly challenging opponents above his rank.
Xi Yue was originally required to complete a month of soul foundation training before entering the arena. However, when she became a Divine Doctor, the Spirit Refining Domain gifted her 100 points, instantly granting her entry into the Tier 1 arena.
Xi Yue didn’t hesitate and sent a duel request to a Tier 2 martial artist.
After the other party accepted, the two were immediately transferred to an empty room.
Not every arena match had an audience. For lower-level duels like theirs, the battles took place in enclosed spaces, with the Spirit Refining Domain determining the winner and loser in the end.
Just as Xi Yue steadied herself in the arena, a middle-aged man, appearing to be in his 40s, quickly materialized before her.
The man saw Xi Yue and the information displayed on the stone beside her: 007, Tier 1, zero wins, zero losses.
He burst into laughter. “I was worried I’d drop from Tier 2 to Tier 1 with another loss, but here you are, a rookie sent to hand me some easy points!” he said with a smug grin.
15 minutes later, the middle-aged man was pinned to the ground, his face pale as he muttered repeatedly, “Impossible! This can’t be happening!”
Finally, his figure slowly disappeared from the arena.
A line of text appeared in front of Xi Yue. “Do you want to proceed to the next duel? If you choose no, you will be sent out of the arena.”
Xi Yue chose “yes” without hesitation.
