Chapter 204 Are you teaching me how to do things?
The blood-red tornado slowly dissipated.
Kratos's demonic figure stood like a sculpture in the center of the empty arena.
There are no more enemies standing.
The remaining ten teams, totaling more than 250 players, waiting outside the arena were all completely silent.
What just happened?
A textbook example of an elite 25-man siege.
A...one-sided massacre.
One person slaughtered twenty-five people.
From beginning to end, the man named Chen You didn't even move more than three steps.
He simply stood there, spending money to the death of the Titan Temple's elite forces in a way they couldn't comprehend.
Finally, they even summoned Kratos, a god of war even cooler than the top-ranked player, and cleared the entire screen.
This is no longer a battle.
This is a dimensional reduction attack.
"Glug."
Someone swallowed hard, their voice unusually clear in the quiet environment.
"What...what exactly is he?"
"Wait... why is he so rich?!"
"I can't understand it, I absolutely can't understand it!"
In the stands, the players from Titan Temple looked ashen-faced.
Their elite team, which they were so proud of, was as vulnerable as a stray cat or dog in front of their opponent.
A disgrace, an unprecedented disgrace!
In the guild channel, Thalos, the guild leader of Titan Temple and the man ranked number one, remained silent.
The moment he emerged from Kuito, he knew it was over.
On the other side, Luna's Radiance and Luna's Arrow finished watching the live broadcast of Lone Wolf Under the Moon.
A hint of helplessness appeared on her stunningly beautiful face.
In the Roman God Clan's guild channel, Obi gave a final summary.
[Obi]: As expected of the strategist, your suggestion was indeed prescient.
The implication is that if they were to intervene, the outcome might not be any better than that of the Titans.
[Auro]: How many people would it take to defeat him?
[Ao Dog Head]: If they were of the same level, I'm afraid they wouldn't be enough to kill him...
[Aurora]: What about different levels?
[Ao Dog Head]: To be conservative, if he's level 50, he probably won't be able to hold out.
Upon seeing this, the members of the Roman God Clan's guild felt a sense of relief.
The advantage of being ranked still exists, so things are easy!
Just then, in the center of the arena, the flag bearer NPC who had remained neutral slowly raised his head.
He seemed momentarily stunned by the situation before him.
Soon, his solemn and powerful voice resounded throughout the entire venue.
"This trial has ended."
"The winner is Chen You's team."
Before the words had even finished and before everyone could recover from their shock, a blood-red light shot into the sky, instantly staining the entire sky of the Origin Realm red!
The familiar system announcement has arrived once again.
[World Announcement: Congratulations to player 'Chen You' for becoming the first player to clear the Mythical Dungeon [Path of the King - Arena of Kings] and achieve the unique achievement [Peerless Warrior]!]
If the battle just now only shocked the two hundred-plus people present...
This world announcement reignited the passion of all players in the entire Origin Realm!
"??? Again? It's him again?! Does he live in the world announcements now?"
"Wait, the King's Arena? A PVP stage? He cleared the PVP stage all by himself? Is there a bug in the system?"
"I just heard that he single-handedly wiped out a 25-man elite squad from the Titan Temple! I thought it was fake news!"
"Calm down, everyone sit down, this is standard procedure."
……
Chen You, who was in the instance, also saw a new system notification pop up in front of him.
[Ding! Congratulations on successfully clearing the [King's Arena] and obtaining a [Legendary Treasure Chest], plus 50000 experience points!]
[Ding! Congratulations on achieving the first kill in the King's Arena and obtaining the unique title of "Arena Master"!]
Dominate the Arena
[Unique Title]
[Effect: In PvP scenarios, your damage to other players is increased by 5%, and the damage you receive is reduced by 5%.]
"Hmm, it's alright, although I don't think I need it right now."
Chen You curled his lip, "At least it's better than the previous one that didn't add anything!"
His gaze fell on the treasure chest, and he chose to open it without hesitation.
A golden light flashed.
[Notification: You have obtained the [King's Glory Greaves] (Legendary Armor, Legs)!]
Chen You: "..."
Another piece of equipment that can't be used.
He sighed, feeling that he and the King's Suit were incompatible.
Just as he was complaining inwardly, a soft golden beam of teleportation light appeared beneath his feet, completely enveloping him.
"Let's go, next level."
Chen You casually waved to the audience.
Under the gaze of more than two hundred people, a mixture of awe, fear, and worship, his figure transformed into a streak of light, soaring into the sky and disappearing from the arena.
All that remained was an empty battlefield and a group of top guild elites questioning their existence.
……
After the white light faded, Chen You found himself in a strange space.
There is no sky, no earth here.
Beneath our feet was a circular platform about 100 meters in diameter, paved with some kind of unknown black crystal, smooth as a mirror.
Beyond the platform lies an endless, deep void, dotted with billions of stars, making one feel as if they are at the center of the universe.
At the very center of the platform stands a simple and ancient bronze mirror.
The mirror is about three meters tall, and its frame is engraved with intricate and abstract patterns.
The entire space was silent, with only starlight flowing slowly.
Repressed.
A sense of oppression emanating from the depths of his soul made Chen You subconsciously tighten his grip on the Jade Emperor Sword.
"Welcome, challenger."
An ancient and ethereal voice seemed to come from the void in all directions, resounding directly in Chen You's mind.
"This is the third stage of the King's Path—the Mirror of True Sight."
Chen You raised an eyebrow, remained silent, and waited for what was to come.
"A true king must not only conquer his enemies, but also conquer himself."
The voice continued, "Cowardice, rage, hatred... these are the poisons that erode the throne."
"Only those who dare to confront and overcome their deepest emotions are qualified to move forward."
Chen You understood.
Is this a psychological hurdle to overcome in relationships?
"Before you is the mirror of truth."
"It will reflect the most powerful negative emotion within you. You need to completely crush it within the illusion."
The aged voice paused, seemingly giving Chen You time to process the information.
Now, tell me your choice.
"Hatred, anger, fear."
Which one will you choose to face?
hatred?
Chen You thought about it and realized that he had just been an ordinary office worker and didn't seem to have any deep-seated hatred towards anyone.
anger?
He seems alright; most of the time he's quite calm and collected.
fear?
In the past, he was afraid of quite a few things, but now...
Is it because you're afraid of dying?
Facing death head-on? That doesn't sound good.
After a quick thought, Chen You suddenly realized something.
Based on his understanding of the Source Realm, regarding this kind of multiple-choice question...
Children make choices, I want them all...
No, I won't choose any of them!
Chen You looked at the huge mirror, in which he was reflected, and the starlight on his body seemed to blend into the background.
He spoke coldly.
"Who are you? You think I'll just choose whatever you tell me to choose?"
Are you teaching me to do things?
one second.
two seconds.
three seconds.
Chen You's words seemed to leave the other party speechless.
After a long while, the voice rang out again.
"If you want to get through here, you have to make a choice."
Chen You smiled upon hearing this.
"That sounds great!"
