"Of course, what else did you expect it to be?"

"Alright, get some rest. We have a match tomorrow, and I don't want to waste too much time here."

As he spoke, Gu Yi had a thought, and a large bed made entirely of skeletons suddenly appeared beside Hu Liena.

"Go to sleep. It might not be very comfortable, but it will be safer."

After saying that, Gu Yi was about to turn and leave, but was suddenly stopped by Hu Liena.

"You! You're not allowed to register tomorrow!"

"It's my turn!"

“We’ll each take a day, otherwise if you keep occupying the arena, how am I supposed to participate?”

Given Gu Yi's current fighting style, he'll win the championship before Hu Liena even starts.

How could Hu Liena possibly allow that?

"Uh... okay then, let's each take one day."

"But I'll say it again: if your progress is too far behind mine, I won't wait for you."

"I don't want to waste too much time here."

Gu Yi nodded, which was considered as agreeing to Hu Liena's request.

Although this might take longer, it's not unacceptable.

"Don't worry, I told you, I'll catch up with you!"

After saying this, Hu Liena turned over and lay down on the bed, closed her eyes, and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Gu Yi said nothing more and left.

……

The next morning.

Gu Yi, who was still resting, was woken up by Hu Liena very early.

"Are you going to participate in a competition so early?"

Looking at Hu Liena, who was already ready, Gu Yi was somewhat surprised. This girl was really a woman of action.

"If I don't go this early, how am I supposed to catch up with your schedule?"

"Don't worry, I've rested well."

The Hell Killing Arena is a place where people fight 24 hours a day, and Hu Liena didn't want to waste a single second of the day.

She wasn't as monstrous as Gu Yi; the skills from her two soul bones only enhanced her physique and martial soul, and didn't play a significant role in combat.

Therefore, if she wants to catch up with Gu Yi, she can only work harder in terms of time.

"Okay, let's go then."

"By the way, I'd also like to see your strength."

Seeing Hu Liena's fighting spirit, Gu Yi decided not to rest any longer and prepared to go to the Hell Slaughter Field with her.

On the one hand, it's about assessing Hu Liena's abilities, and on the other hand, it's about preventing any unexpected incidents.

Soon, the two left the hotel and entered the Hell Killing Fields together.

It's quite a coincidence that Hu Liena was the tenth person to sign up today.

The battle began immediately upon her arrival.

It has begun.

Gu Yi sat quietly in the spectator stands, carefully observing Hu Liena's every move.

She remained calm, wielding the short sword with effortless skill, and her agile movements helped her dodge attacks time and again, like a crimson rose blooming on the battlefield.

Her opponents were no pushovers either; each one was an old man who had lived in this killing city for a long time, making it extremely difficult for Hu Liena to fight.

Not only must she constantly observe her surroundings, but she must also find the right moment to strike, otherwise, a single misstep could lead to her death.

Fortunately, the result was good. After a full half hour, Hu Liena successfully won the first game.

Instead of retreating, she, like Gu Yi, waited for the next battle to begin.

Although she was feeling a little tired and her pretty face was covered in sweat, she didn't want to give up.

She knew that only in this way could she keep up with Gu Yi's pace.

"Ha~"

From the stands, Gu Yi saw through her thoughts. Although it was indeed quite risky, he did not intend to dissuade her.

He also wanted to see just how far Hu Liena could hold out.

And so, Gu Yi sat quietly in the spectator stands, watching Hu Liena's battle after battle.

It wasn't until noon, when Hu Liena's sixth battle had ended, that he got up from the stands and pulled the exhausted Hu Liena out of the open space.

"I...I can...continue."

Hu Liena gasped for breath, instinctively wanting to resist Gu Yi, but she no longer had any strength left.

"Okay, okay, I know, but I'm really hungry right now. Why don't you come with me to have lunch first?"

"We can continue after lunch; there's plenty of time, isn't there?"

Gu Yi continued speaking along with Hu Liena, without exposing her lie.

To be honest, Gu Yi was actually quite envious of Hu Liena.

Because her battles are basically never-ending, unlike Gu Yi, who has to wait for most of the day to start a fight.

After the Fallen Ones saw that he could use Soul Bone skills, they basically all avoided him, as if he were a plague.

Otherwise, Gu Yicai wouldn't have only won thirteen games in one day.

However, there's nothing that can be done about it. If he relied solely on skill and physical strength like Hu Liena, it would be too tiring.

"Looks like I need to think of something."

While pulling Hu Liena along, Gu Yi muttered to himself.

……

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

During this period, Gu Yi and Hu Liena consistently employed a "one person fights, one person stands guard" approach.

When Gu Yi was fighting, Hu Liena was watching from the sidelines, and the same thing happened when it was Hu Liena's turn to fight.

In this way, they can ensure that no one takes the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, nor that some unscrupulous people will take advantage of the situation.

During this month, the two of them developed a lot of tacit understanding.

For example, before Hu Liena eats anything, she always makes Gu Yi test it for poison first, and if any problems arise, she always makes Gu Yi stand in front of her... and so on.

It's incredibly difficult to survive in this godforsaken place!

However, the situation has improved considerably since a week ago.

After all, Gu Yi and Hu Liena's reputations had already resounded throughout the entire Killing City a week ago!

'Hell Messenger' Hu Liena, 'Death God' Gu Yi.

Hu Liena achieved a 98-game winning streak, and Gu Yi achieved a 99-game winning streak. The two of them achieved such an astonishing record in just one month.

Today will be the day they charge into Hell Road!

The entrance to the Hell's Killing Fields.

"Are you ready?"

"If we win today, we can leave this hellhole."

Gu Yi stretched and yawned as he stood at the doorway.

This was much shorter than he had anticipated in the Spirit Hall. Although it could have been faster, it didn't matter much.

"Hmph! I was prepared a long time ago. If you hadn't insisted on dragging me away yesterday, I would have had a ninety-nine-game winning streak too."

"Hurry up, let's go in."

Hu Liena couldn't wait any longer. She had no attachment to this godforsaken place whatsoever; in fact, she found it utterly repulsive.

"Heh!" Gu Yi chuckled. "Then let's go in!"

Chapter 162 Entering the Road to Hell

"They're here again! They're here again!"

"Is today the day they achieve their 100th consecutive victory?"

"To achieve a hundred consecutive wins in just one month—that's an unprecedented record in the history of Slaughter City!"

"It looks like three more groups of people are going to be in big trouble today."

"..."

The Hell Killing Arena was exceptionally lively today, with the stands almost completely full.

They were all 'poor souls' who came to watch Gu Yi and Hu Liena achieve their 100th consecutive victory.

As usual, Gu Yi went to register first, while Hu Liena waited on the side of the stands.

Although the Killing City has clear rules against pairing two people with more than fifty consecutive wins together, Gu Yi was still worried that he and Hu Liena were being too conspicuous and might cause unforeseen problems.

Therefore, for safety reasons, Gu Yi arranged for Hu Liena to register at a different time than herself.

After Gu Yi finishes his battle, Hu Liena will take the stage.

Anyway, the time lost in this process will not be too long.

Just as Gu Yi had predicted, his battle today ended with an instant kill, and Hu Liena also quickly finished her battle.

One hundred wins!

The moment Hu Liena's battle ended, both of them reached 100 consecutive wins!
