Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 508: Chapter 80: Sensational News

Ten hours later, on the arena stage.

The long knife in Su Xiao’s hand pierced through the enemy’s throat, and with a forceful twist of his arms, the enemy was thrown over his shoulder and slammed into the protective shield at the edge of the ring, hitting the ground with a thud.

This thrust through the throat was enough to be fatal, and the enemy did not get back up.

Su Xiao had been fighting continuously for over ten hours, and his condition was starting to decline.

[Thirty-three consecutive wins!]

A row of golden letters appeared, and the audience stood in an uproar.

The Contractor who was gradually dissipating accepted his defeat. He wasn’t weak, mastering Telekinesis·Enhancement System.

[Solo Battle has ended: Victory, thirty-three consecutive wins!]

[Hunter’s ranking has risen, from 10,307th to 9,600th (Second Tier).]

Su Xiao took a long breath; he finally made it into the top ten thousand.

Contrary to expectations, his ranking rose rapidly at first during the winning streak, but it slowed down around the top twenty thousand, and became even harder around the top ten thousand, with increasingly stronger opponents.

One must know, Su Xiao is only a Level 10 Hunter now, while his opponents are Level 13 or above Contractors, who’ve experienced many more Derivative Worlds than him.

Aiming for the top ten is too challenging. Forget about the top ten; Su Xiao feels even making it into the top hundred seems impossible for now.

Contractors ranking within the top thousand in the arena can already pose a threat to him; those in the top five hundred have a chance to kill him. If he encounters a Contractor within the top two hundred in a Derivative World, he might die.

However, this is just Su Xiao’s guess based on the current rankings.

Su Xiao was not surprised by this result, having just advanced to the second tier two days ago; his current ranking is quite impressive. Proceeding with his original trajectory, he just needs to become stronger faster than others.

Having fought dozens of matches, Su Xiao was very fatigued, dragging his tired body out of the arena.

Heading to Xia’s restaurant with Bu Bu Wang, who already remembers the way and knows it’s time to eat, trotting happily.

...

Jingle.

He pushed open the restaurant door; the shop was as quiet as usual. Xia was sleeping on a dining table. Bu Bu Wang glanced at Xia with a look that clearly said ”disappointed yet again”—sleeping in broad daylight, this rundown store won’t last.

”Woof.”

Bu Bu Wang let out a high-pitched bark, startling Xia awake as she sat up suddenly.

”Oh, it’s you, you ’Siberian Husky’.”

Xia leaned on the chair, somewhat displeased that her sweet dream was interrupted.

Bu Bu Wang barked at Xia several times, as if to say: ”You’re the Siberian Husky, your whole family are Siberian Huskies.”

Given their long acquaintance, Xia could understand what Bu Bu Wang meant; after all, Bu Bu Wang’s intelligence was obvious.

”Okay, okay, I’m a Siberian Husky, I’m all black and white fur.”

Xia chuckled lightly, ruffling Bu Bu Wang’s fur in annoyance.

”Which page to eat?”

Xia picked up the menu. After a moment of consideration, Bu Bu Wang barked three times, indicating that it wanted everything on the third page.

This peculiar ordering style was unique to Bu Bu Wang. Xia got up and busied herself in the kitchen. Soon, a table full of sumptuous dishes was ready. Su Xiao and Bu Bu Wang began to feast heartily.

”How’s it going recently? Your murderous aura is getting increasingly intense.”

Su Xiao mumbled through the food in his mouth, ”Not bad, things have been going smoothly lately.”

Xia nodded, unwilling for anything to happen to Su Xiao, as he was soon becoming the only customer there.

”Did you hear? Something big happened recently.”

Su Xiao stopped chewing his food, ”What happened?”

”The Divine Emperor Adventure Group and the Travel Group have officially gone to war, a relentless one, quite terrifying.”

Xia showed a look of lingering fear.

”Hmm?”

Su Xiao halted his actions, picked up a napkin, and wiped his mouth.

”Has Divine Emperor gone mad? He’s not someone who acts irrationally.”

Hearing this surprised Su Xiao because he had had dealings with Divine Emperor himself before.

”You know Divine Emperor?”

”Traded with him a few times. Why’s Divine Emperor going all out against the Travel Group?”

”His younger sister Xiela was killed by the sixth member of the Travel Group, Gulu.”

Su Xiao’s gaze flickered. He’d seen both Xiela and Gulu before. During an auction, he could tell they had a grudge. He didn’t expect Gulu to kill Xiela outright.

”The Travel Group truly is a bunch of lunatics. It’s said they don’t fear killing anyone. They say the conflict started over a piece of the Demon Hunting Suit.”

Demon Hunting Suit: A set of only three Dark Purple Suit items, it’s a dream set for close combat.

There’s no comparison between a Dark Purple Suit and a single piece of Dark Purple Equipment.

”Did Gulu take it?”

”No, the ring of the Demon Hunting Suit is with the Divine Emperor Adventure Group.”

The situation was more complicated than imagined. Su Xiao lowered his head to contemplate these matters.

”Hey, hey, you’re not thinking of getting involved, are you? The God Emperor, the Travel Group, Blood Gate, Black Sail Merchant Group, Barbaric Sky, more than a dozen large adventure teams are involved, all for the Demon Hunting Suit. That’s definitely a hot potato.”

Xia was engrossed in her storytelling because these matters had nothing to do with her, treating it as idle chat over a meal.

”Hearing you say that...”

Xia nodded.

”Exactly, isn’t it better to live? Why get caught up in that, might die.”

”I’m more interested now.”

Su Xiao looked at Xia with a smile, her mouth slightly open, with a somewhat awkward expression.

”Just kidding, I don’t have the qualification to snatch it now.”

Su Xiao knew himself well; with more than a dozen large adventure teams vying for it, they’d use all sorts of items to track the world where the Divine Emperor Adventure Group was. If he got involved, it would definitely not end well.

What he needed now was to become stronger as soon as possible. Only then would he qualify to obtain the Demon Hunting Suit.

”Where did you get this information?”

As a Worker, Xia knew about this, but Su Xiao was completely unaware.

”Many Workers know; how could I not know about such a big event?”

Su Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly. As a Lone Ranger, intelligence was a weak point.

He traded 100 Paradise coins to Xia, who looked slightly surprised.

”The meal didn’t cost this much...”

Su Xiao waved his hand.

”Let me know if there’s any similar news in the future, and I’ll pay you.”

”Okay.”

Xia smiled, her eyes squinting like crescent moons, like a little money-grubber.

”Take care.”

Su Xiao left Xia’s restaurant, followed by Bu Bu Wang, who could hardly walk, its eyes seemed to say: ”Master, slow down, I ate too much.”

”Glutton.”

Returning to his private room and sleeping until he woke naturally, upon waking, Su Xiao glanced at the clock on the bedside table; there were 5 hours left until returning to the real world.

He got up and washed, preparing to go to the Trial Field to summon a proficient sword technique mirror image. He had 68,250 Paradise coins left.

Leaving the sleepy Bu Bu Wang in his private room, Su Xiao headed to the Trial Field.

While passing by the Trading Square, he subconsciously glanced at the surrounding stalls.

As he passed one booth, he halted; an item on the booth caught his eye.

”This thing, cheaper.”

Su Xiao picked up a broken weapon; it was a consumable item.

”Fifty thousand Paradise coins, no bargaining.”

The vendor was adamant; no matter how Su Xiao bargained, the price did not drop by even 1 Paradise coin.

After a long hesitation, Su Xiao spent fifty thousand Paradise coins to buy the broken weapon.

The item wasn’t useful for now, but it represented an opportunity to grow stronger quickly, albeit a bit risky.
