"You lost."
Happy pulled his sword back and stood. He stared at the mysterious masked man in black, whose gaze was solemn and whose temperament had changed drastically. A solemn expression appeared on his face. This was the first time he ran into such a difficult person. His strength might only be second to One Emperor.
Even though he did not have the pressure and threat One Emperor gave him and did not have the will to fight against the God of Death with everything he had, this person still managed to make his blood boil!
This person's strength …
Was very good!
Besides, he could tell that this person had only practiced Life and Death Realm's Heaven's Leg Breaker. Just now, when Happy's sword struck him, he did not change his martial art. He only used some techniques Happy had never seen before to get out of his predicament. There was a high possibility that he had come to understand it on his own.
Given time, he would definitely have a place for himself in the game.
…
"That's right, I lost."
The mysterious masked man in black wiped the red wound on his chest, and his frown gradually disappeared. He stared at his opponent again. "There is indeed an opponent who is worthy of me being serious in the game."
"You praise me too much."
"Don't worry, I will keep my promise and not stop you anymore. Right now, I just want to ask you a question." The mysterious man in black narrowed his eyes.
Happy smiled faintly. "Go ahead."
"How long have you been in the game?"
"Eleven months."
"I'm not among the earliest batch." The mysterious man in black suddenly smiled after he mumbled to himself. "But I've been in the game for less than three months, and my realm for Heaven's Leg Breaker is very low."
When he said those words, the people inside and outside the port sucked in sharp breaths!
Three months!
He managed to reach this level in three months!
The people from Class One Hall and Towering Palace might have heard the mysterious man in black say those words a long time ago, but when they thought about it carefully, it was indeed impossible for him to increase his Life and Death Realm martial arts to a high level in just three months. The group of elites ranked at the top of Dragon Rank and Phoenix Rank fell silent and said nothing.
"What do you want to prove?"
"Heh, I just hope that after some time, I will be able to fight against you again, sir!" the mysterious man in black answered in high spirits.
Happy rejected it.
"I don't think there's a need for that."
"You don't dare?"
"It's not that I don't dare, but there's no need for it." Happy stopped talking for a moment and stared into the man's eyes before he added, "Sir, what do you mean?"
"… What do you mean?" The mysterious man in black frowned slightly. "Since you know, why do you have to say it out loud? Besides, aren't you the same?"
"Me?"
He laughed happily.
"I'm just a small employee of a small company. I've never cultivated before. I'm just an ordinary person. Between the two of us, one has the advantage of time, and the other has the advantage of martial arts. If you want to challenge me, there are many heroes in the world. I don't have the time to entertain you."
"You don't know martial arts, that's impossible! Your control and use of internal force is even better than mine. How can you not be a member of this circle? You're bluffing me! "The mysterious man in black's tone was slightly hurried.
Losing to a martial artist and losing to a normal player were two different concepts to him.
The former was acceptable, but the latter was completely unacceptable!
"Nothing is impossible. I am indeed just an ordinary person. If you have the time, you can find someone else to spar with …"
Once he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
He actually had a good impression of the mysterious man in black.
However, from the latter's words, he was able to make out some meaning …
His opponent had brought up the three months of gaming time to talk about it. It was nothing more than an attempt to strike him down, raise his status, and remove the negative effects of his defeat.
He did this!
He definitely had his own goal.
No matter what was involved, Happy did not want to get involved.
"You …"
When he saw Happy turn around without hesitation and jump onto the ship, the mysterious man in black's eyes sparkled, and the anger in them became even clearer.
He had actually lost to a normal player …
Ever since he entered the game three months ago, he had won against Mystical Realm and Life and Death Realm players countless times with a low qi realm. Up until then, he had never lost.
He did not expect that when he had prepared everything and was prepared to build his sect for the final and most crucial solo show, something like this would happen.
He was prepared to tear off his mask, but in the end, he did not manage to do so.
However, under the influence of his failure, the mysterious man in black cast his gaze on the treasure chests in the remaining four transportation ships.
The man in black's words just now had a great impact on him!
If everything he said was true, then the game might be just as the elders in his clan said. It would help him train and understand his martial arts.
If that was really the case …
He had to play according to the rules of the game and follow the rules.
Because the ability he had always been proud of had been destroyed! The confidence he had built up over the past three months had been destroyed in one day.
He had to rethink everything.
He had to raise his arms and shout.
He had to build his sect.
And he had to develop his future.
Everything had to be redone and planned in detail.
…
The mysterious man in black did not stop the masked man in black from leaving. He stood dumbfounded on the spot and watched the man in black loosen the rope with the people from Towering Palace, Class One Hall, and the people from the other sects. The transportation ships slowly moved away from the port, and under the illumination of the rising sun, they headed into the distance.
After a long while, the mysterious man in black, the people from Towering Palace, and Class One Hall cast their gazes on the remaining four transportation ships.
Everyone's gazes burned with determination!
…
In less than half an hour after the transportation ships left the port, they arrived near the island the Murong Clan Grand Elder had mentioned.
The ship sank and left. Happy, dressed in black, moved to an unmanned pleasure boat that was docked there. The pleasure boat slowly set sail.
He completed his quest!
Whoosh.
Happy strolled to the deck and looked at the unobstructed river. He finally removed the veil that had been covering his face and let out a long sigh.
Fortunately, the two top-class sects had been intimidated by the mysterious man in black, which was why they did not cause too much of a ruckus. Otherwise, if he wanted to seize a transportation ship from the hands of countless martial artists at the port alone, he would have needed to spend a lot of effort.
He had finally completed his quest without any mishaps!
He did not have to worry about the arrogant grand elder getting rid of one of his ultimate techniques.
But …
A thought appeared in his mind. Happy raised his hand and caressed the black and exquisite sword-shaped plate in his hand. Surprise appeared in his eyes.
Sword Tomb Plate!
He had obtained this item from the table on the pleasure boat after he completed his quest. There was a piece of paper under the plate, and it was given to him by Grand Elder Tai Shan. It seemed like this unique plate was his reward for completing his quest.
It was a very strange item.
Sword Tomb Plate:
When necessary, enter the Murong Clan's sword tomb, and you will be able to obtain the detailed usage of the plate.
'Damn it, is this a chain quest?' After thinking about it for a while, anguish appeared on Happy's face.
