Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 229: The Default 10th Stage

The 9th stage was the highest in the yellow level ancient battleground.

The panda hit the bulging belly of the orc with a Tiger King Fist, but found his paw stuck in its fat.

The orc pinned the panda with its fat as he rained hits on him for ten seconds to defeat him.

Theres an issue with the matches

There was no point in fighting when there was a problem with the matchup. With the panda in the zero stage, the right opponent would be in the same stage, or in 1st at the most, not 8th or 9th.

Li Mos heart jumped as he recalled a rumor.

Display rules!

Whoosh~

Hundreds of clauses partaking in participation at the ancient battleground were strewn for his viewing.

Sure enough

Li Mo found his answer on the third clause.

In the case of a descendant of the bloodline of one of the ten sacred beasts taking part in the four ancient battlegrounds, by default, a challenge could come from all ten stages

Li Mos face was aflame.

No wonder the pandas opponents were beyond excessive.

Keep loosing and dont worry. Once you lose long enough, things will change

The panda was clearly in the zero stage, but was set on the 10th by default. This was a hidden effect, and only by overcoming its prerequisites would get someone out of it.

Li Mos explanation got the panda excited, but the last phrase hit it right where it hurt the must.

Sage Spirit Monkeys descendant became a champion in the three ancient battlegrounds. Compared to him, you

The panda hanged its head.

Keep going.

Get out, you dogs! You are unworthy of the sacred ancient battleground!

Get out now! Only the grate Yi Yijiu may enter the sacred ancient battleground!

You dogs, get out!

At some point, an army of tens of thousands of monkeys had the ancient battleground surrounded. They raved and cursed while pointing at it.

The monkeys werent guarding the ancient battleground, but with how a dozen tribes lived close by, it was hard not to notice Li Mos party going in.

They stopped short of entering since they couldnt to begin with. The bare minimum was for one to be in the first level to enter, but these monkey descendants of Sage Spirit Monkey were even weaker.

Keep going.

Get out, you dogs! You are unworthy of the sacred ancient battleground!

Get out now! Only the grate Yi Yijiu may enter the sacred ancient battleground!

You dogs, get out!

Without inheriting Sage Spirit Monkeys blood, the monkeys had little to mention regarding smarts. They were so far beneath humans standard that their cursing was only limited to these three lines.

Li Mo had long since heard them complaining, but it wasnt like he cared. The monkeys didnt pose the tinniest threat. If it ever came to leaving, instead of taking the exit, theyd use the earth qi jades.

The monkeys cursed day in, day out, for a full three days. It was now that a light bulb flashed in a female monkyes mind.

We can go ask king Liang Yier for help. He will easily get rid of these ancient battleground blasphemers.

You wanton monkey! Arent you just looking to mate with him instead?

I want to kill those wretched dogs from the ancient battleground!

Stop quibbling, wanton monkey, and take my club!

Bang!

The pitiful female monkey was killed just like that

Get out, you dogs! You are unworthy of the sacred ancient battleground!

Get out now! Only the grate Yi Yijiu may enter the sacred ancient battleground!

You dogs, get out!

The monkeys resumed cursing.

They werent the sharpest tools in the shed, but quite patient. They cursed from dusk till dawn, all day long, every day for almost a week, and their numbers only increased.

Li Mo and co. had been fighting in the yellow ancient battleground for seven days now. Du Fei, Ning Xin, and Whitey had reached the 9th stage at some point. While the brave yet defeated panda had squeezed a few wins now and then, reaching the 3rd stage.

The yellow ancient battleground was just a basic testing ground. It was easy in the first six stages and not much harder even after. With some losses and winning, one would surely rise in stages as long as he persevered. 

Li Mo had repeated the feat of getting thirty plus winning streaks multiple times in this period. He wasnt too greedy either, knowing to stop when he was ahead. It all translated into earning 107 battleground coins.  

This was not a small number to any who fought in the yellow ancient battleground all year round. In fact, the great majority needed up to two years to earn that much. 

Li Mo bought a Heavenly Fire Core with a hundred coins. Despite being only in the top thousand rare ingredients in the universe, it wasnt found on Earth.

Bro Mo, the yellow ancient battleground isnt hard at all. Now Im at peak fifth level and have the feeling Ill advance soon.

Du Feis advancement in stages wasnt as fast as Li Mo, but his winning rate didnt fall short at all. He, just like Li Mo, hadnt lost once since getting into the 9th stage, while Ning Xin and Whitey had slipped a few times along the way.  

Sage King Physique was strong, true, but few of the universes races new magical arts. With how they fought in the ancient battleground relying on brute force alone, it was quite normal for Ning Xin to lose some.

As for Whitey, her demonic arts had clear limitations. Like Fire race, Sacred race, and many others, her bane was of the opposite element. She would lose before she could even attempt to resist.

The true difficulty in yellow ancient battleground revolves around being challenged thirty times and win, not looking for the easiest match.

Thirty wins? That doesnt sound so hard.

Try it.

Watch me. Du Fei entered again.

He won, of a sort. In most cases, the enemy would tear him apart, but then hed recover and score a win after his opponent was spent.

Du Fei fought for a day and night, winning thirty-one times in a row and earning a battleground coin.

Easy money! Du Fei laughed as he rubbed the dark circles out of his eyes.

Du Fei won his 32nd match as well, but then he stumbled upon Huo Linger in his 33rd.

Huo Linger went by the title Nr.1 Killer in the yellow ancient battleground. She just loved to stomp on any newcomer that gained thirty wins. 

The Holy Fire whip flicked eternal flames, burning Du Fei to ashes

Du Fei came out of the ancient battleground depressed.

This was the first time he lost so easily.

She burned me so fast that my body felt like evaporating water. Gone in a blink.

Bro Mo, would I have died if it were a real fight instead?

Li Mo nodded.

Du Feis legs shivered. Gone was his earlier bravado.
