Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 331, Rank 1, Title: King of Arena
[Selected Challenge Ranking: 1]

The ranked apostles accept the challenge and begin their journey into the arena.

Matchmaking complete, both players have entered the arena.

[Location: Ancient Battlefield No. 771]

Chu Danqing started with a smooth combo of buffs, only to find that the opponent didn't make a move.

Not only did the other party not move, but Guo Ming himself did not move this time either.

Chu Danqing also saw the other party, a middle-aged man with a silver spear and a white horse. He was not particularly good-looking, but rather of average appearance.

"Ready?" the other said in a low voice, raising his silver spear.

At that moment, Chu Danqing's heart sank to the bottom.

He encountered one of the most challenging apostolic systems.

There are many different schools of thought in the park, each with extremely high entry requirements but also formidable combat power.

You're either a strong person or a useless one; genius is just the entry-level standard.

One of the more popular topics of discussion is classical mythology.

The Classics Department, also known as the History Department, consists mostly of people who are real-world professions such as knights, generals, scholars, and so on.

He has no fancy abilities whatsoever, just pure stats and extremely high-level basic skills, combined with combat experience gained from life-or-death situations.

Of course, that's not the point. The point is that they have something extraordinary about them, similar to historical figures.

For example, in the novel, when Zhao Zilong rescued his lord single-handedly, he and his horse fell into a pit. However, because he was holding A Dou, the future emperor of Shu Han, a red light rolled out of the pit.

Only then did the man and horse appear out of thin air from the pit.

This is precisely: A crimson light enveloped the trapped dragon, and the warhorse broke through the encirclement of Changban. Forty-two years of true destiny, the general thus displayed his divine might.

As for mythological systems, they are about as outrageous as those.

If history majors are kings, generals, knights-errant, and assassins, then mythology majors are qi cultivators who live on air and dew, and alchemists who study alchemy.

They are not based on combat strength; they may not be strong in combat themselves, but they possess very powerful abilities.

Examples include turning stone into gold, plucking stars from the sky and the moon, and summoning wind and rain.

The immortals they became were not the fighting immortals in online novels, but great supernatural beings from myths and legends who traveled to the North Sea in the morning and Cangwu in the evening.

Therefore, their extremely traditional upbringing resulted in a huge gap between their upper and lower limits.

When Chu Danqing learned of the power of this classical mythology, he had no desire to covet it or switch to its cultivation.

Given his circumstances, even getting started would be difficult, let alone further development.

Why give up your advantages? Besides, with your current development, you might not be inferior to your opponent.

Upon seeing that Chu Danqing had finished preparing, the silver-spear apostle immediately spurred his horse.

The white horse charged forward, like a white dragon in flight.

Strange phenomena arose in the world, with wind and thunder accompanying the Silver Spear Apostle, and large raindrops falling from the sky.

The wind, rain, thunder, and lightning intertwined, transforming into a blue-green, one-legged Kui ox.

At first, Chu Danqing thought it was something like a Dharma Image or Martial Soul.

But upon closer inspection, his face turned green.

This isn't a fake, it's a genuine Kui Niu.

Everyone here is at level 1, yet you managed to get your hands on a Kui Niu? That's a bit too outrageous.

Fortunately, the Kui ox did not move, but occasionally made a drum-like sound in response to the wind, rain, thunder, and lightning.

If someone were to step on that, everyone would be turned into mincemeat.

As for the silver-spear apostle, he had already charged into the formation and, as if unleashing his full power, killed Murong Ying with a single spear thrust.

The white horse was indeed just a warhorse, but the impact of that single hoof strike caused the surrounding soldiers to die instantly.

Fortunately, Guo Ming stepped up and fought alongside Chunyang Tianjiang against the apostle.

Guo Ming is the main force, and Chunyang Tianjiang is the assistant.

The Silver Spear Apostle's moves are grand and imposing, following the style of large-scale, sweeping attacks used on the battlefield.

Not only were they unafraid of being besieged, but they thrived in the situation, while Guo Ming faced numerous perilous situations.

"Let's all attack together! That one-legged bull monster won't make a move!" Yang Qianyuan suddenly said. "This man's life is as solid as a rock, unbreakable. I can't do anything about it."

"We can only kill him by force!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kumashige immediately gave the order.

All the soldiers joined forces to kill, and the military commanders took turns attacking.

A hint of satisfaction flashed in the Silver Spear Apostle's eyes. He thrust his spear straight through, shattering the army's momentum with a single strike.

The sweeping motion of the spear appeared remarkably simple and unadorned.

Although there was no spear fighting or aura involved, the soldiers were terrified by the fighting.

Even Guo Ming couldn't help but feel secretly worried.

Upon seeing this, the Kui Niu let out a satisfied drumbeat.

Clearly, the Silver Spear Apostle's performance in battle greatly pleased it.

"Mr. Chu, if this continues, we will surely lose!" Xiong Zhigang's face hardened. Whether Chu Danqing could win first place in the arena was related to everyone's future.

As soon as Xiong Zhigang finished speaking, he once again condensed the military force of the Warlord without hesitation.

Chu Danqing didn't quite understand, but the next moment Xiong Zhigang told Chu Danqing what he was going to do.

"In life and in death, we made a vow!" Xiong Zhigang said softly.

All the surviving soldiers paused suddenly and replied, "I will hold your hand and grow old with you."

Chu Danqing understood; this was the poem "Bei Feng: Drumming" from the Book of Songs, which Chu Danqing had taught Xiong Zhigang. It wasn't a song praising love, but rather about camaraderie in battle.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiong Zhigang's body turned to ashes, and the soldiers' bodies also shattered.

The military force that should have dissipated transformed into a kind of military evil thought and entered the body of the Silver Spear Apostle.

The Kui Niu once again emitted a satisfied drumbeat.

The Silver Spear Apostle's body sank, and blood-red patterns appeared on his body.

The malevolent energy emanating from the military commander and his soldiers eroded his body.

He almost lost his grip on the silver spear.

Guo Ming seized this moment of advantage and knocked the silver spear away with a single sword strike.

Taking advantage of this moment, the seven Yuan Chen swords combined with the Su Nu sword.

"Break for me!!!" Guo Ming shouted, and then he and his sword exploded.

Chu Danqing did not see the self-destruction that followed; he appeared as soon as the other party died.

[Victory! Achieve a 748-game winning streak. You gain: 10 Arena Points, and your ranking rises to: 1]

Your title has been upgraded from Grandmaster to King of Arena.

You have received: 1 selectable basic skill scroll, 10 basic skill crystals, and 10000 Paradise Points.

[Title: Arena King: Health +10%, Mana +10%, All Five Attributes +10%, Attack +10%, Defense +10%, Training Efficiency +10%, Initial Favorability with Natives +10%]

(Note: If the Apostle's rank remains unchanged by the end of the next trial, they must enter the arena and accept three challenges; otherwise, their title will be revoked.)

Chu Danqing saw that the title had changed to "King of Competition," and the first five effects should be universal.

The latter two, cultivation efficiency and initial favorability with the natives, should be suitable for him.

"Finally finished." Chu Danqing breathed a sigh of relief, then glanced at the basic-level skill crystal, and his face darkened.

This thing can't be sold.

Chu Danqing didn't have any basic skills he wanted to upgrade for the time being, so he glanced at Guo Ming's panel and combined them into a mastery-level skill crystal.

His swordsmanship proficiency is already at level 19.

This is just the right time to upgrade him to MAX level.

After returning to his personal room, Chu Danqing gave him the mastery-level skill crystal.

"I'll give it a try and see if it works." Guo Ming knew, of course, how useful this thing was.

However, because Chu Danqing's basic skills were related to their strength, they were always used by Chu Danqing.

They have a safe environment where they can cultivate on their own at their own pace. Chu Danqing does not have this condition, and if he wants to grow fast enough, he needs the help of this kind of resource.

It was mainly by chance that Chu Danqing hadn't yet grasped the knowledge from the previous upgrade, so he saved it even if he didn't use it.

In addition, the next event is a rank advancement trial, so Guo Ming will have to continue to contribute.

Otherwise, even if Chu Danqing gave it to Guo Ming, Guo Ming wouldn't accept it.

[Covenant Target #1 has been detected attempting to use a Mastery-level Skill Crystal. You may choose to pay a fee to assist in this process.]

1. Handling fee: Paradise Points x 10000

[2. Payment refused, service failed]

(Note: Mastery-level skill crystals are a strategic resource of the park and their illegal circulation is prohibited.)
Chu Danqing's eye twitched. This thing was really expensive, but he still chose to confirm.

After using up his amusement park points, Guo Ming began to absorb knowledge.

Yang Qianyuan then took out a stack of spirit beast sealing talismans and a thick book: "I have selected ten types of military and armor-type spirit beasts and ten types of horse-type spirit beasts that Commander Xiong needed. Take them back and see if they are suitable."

"If it's suitable, what kinds do you need? I'll procure them for you."

Upon hearing this, Xiong Zhigang immediately replied, "Thank you, Qian Yuan. It's a pity that my trial world is too lowly to return the favor."

Yang Qianyuan smiled and said, "You're too kind. We're all in the same boat."

He saw things clearly, so he used them thoroughly.

"They're all top-notch, which will save me a lot of money," Chu Danqing joked.

The spirit beast sealing talisman is of excellent quality, and the book is a knowledge-based item, also of excellent quality.

Without knowledge, how could Kumashima be raised?
"Tsk, Qian Yuan is really favoring one over the other." Guo Ming said with a smile after receiving the knowledge, "I'll ask Qian Yuan for some spirit beasts in the future, so please don't refuse."

“My Guo family has also prepared a fine gift for Qian Yuan.”

Guo Ming took out a robe, a robe of excellent quality, similar to Chu Danqing's Flowing Clouds Chasing the Moon Robe, but both of them had life-saving effects.

"Don't worry, Brother Guo, just let me know if you need anything." Yang Qianyuan was naturally not stingy.

"Alright, I hope you haven't forgotten anything. I'll take you back now." Chu Danqing checked the time; if she stayed any longer, she'd have to pay more.

The three checked it over, and Yang Qianyuan also took the upgraded Glazed Star Gazing Mirror, indicating that he didn't have any. Chu Danqing then sent him back directly.

[Uncertified equipment and items have been detected. Since they were provided by Covenant Targets 1 and 3, you may choose to have them certified as standard or opt out of certification.]

[1. Notarization: Excellent level requires 2100 Paradise Points, Superior level requires 5000 Paradise Points]

【2. If not notarized, the person will be sent back with the deportation】
-
[The covenant has been found to be carrying equipment belonging to a Tier 1 Dimensional Apostle. You may choose to pay a processing fee to complete the transfer or abandon the transfer.]

【1. Transaction Fee: 77100 Amusement Park Points (21 Excellent items, 15 Superior items)】

【2. Give up the transfer and stay where you are】
-
[You have returned the covenant object. The rationalization of repatriation cognition has been completed. This duration: 32 hour, cost: Paradise Points × 49984]
-
"Only 22552 Paradise Points remain."

"This time, let's keep 15,700 and spend the rest."

"Perfect timing, I'll buy some things to win over the Cat Goddess," Chu Danqing muttered, looking at his remaining Paradise Points.

The remaining 29 days will be dedicated to mastering the Five Elements Spiritual Forging Scripture and cultivating the Spiritual Awakening of the Heart-to-Heart Lotus Seed.

Da Bao, Da Bai, and Da Gu don't need to worry. What they need to do now is continue to hone their growing strength.
