"Congratulations, Mr. Star, on your seventy-sixth consecutive victory."
After Old Ox stepped down, the arena administrator Nelson smiled and announced Roy's victory.
"Next, we invite the next challenger – Chasing Wind."
"Chasing Wind," a Wind Element High-level God who had spoken arrogantly about Roy before the challenge, had toned down considerably after his friends told him Roy had won fifteen consecutive matches.
After witnessing the famous "Overlord Sword" being easily defeated by Roy, "Chasing Wind" completely lost his arrogance.
He was also a Seven-star Demon, having just reached this realm, while Overlord Sword was a renowned expert in the Netherworld for over ten million years, and had achieved eighty-two consecutive victories after arriving in the Nine Nether Region.
Well, of course, starting today, unless Overlord Sword began challenging again, his winning streak had been terminated by Roy.
"Your Excellency Star, I am Isaiah, a Wind Element Seven-star Demon. Please guide me."
"Chasing Wind" Isaiah solemnly announced his proper name, and Roy smiled.
He had heard everything this guy had said below the arena earlier.
Was he being so polite now because he was afraid Roy would go too hard on him?
"Mm, don't worry, I won't use too much force."
After saying this to Isaiah, Roy snapped his fingers.
"Buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..."
Hundreds of golden ripples appeared behind Roy, and weapons of various forms emerged from the ripples of Profound Mysteries of Laws.
"This..."
Seeing this, Isaiah's face turned a bit pale.
The power of these weapons was something Star had already demonstrated when fighting Overlord Sword.
He was not Overlord Sword.
If he took this attack, he would probably lose half his life.
At that moment, Isaiah directly raised his hand and shouted, "Wait, Your Excellency Star, I, I surrender..."
"Uh..."
Watching Isaiah quickly fly off the stage, Roy couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, hahahaha..."
"This guy is too funny, isn't he?"
Roy's laughter caused the audience outside the Blood Battle Stage to erupt in laughter as well.
"Is this guy here to crack jokes?"
"Yeah, it's not like you die fighting Your Excellency Star, why is he so scared?"
These words reached Isaiah, making his face turn completely red.
Yes, they came to challenge Star precisely because they heard that no one who fought Your Excellency Star had ever died.
Now, fleeing before the fight even began, he had become a laughingstock.
It could only be said that he was guilty, fearing deliberate retaliation from Roy, so he surrendered as soon as Roy used the "Gate of Babylon."
"Your Excellency Star's seventy-seventh battle, victory!"
"Next challenger please..."
Besides the fleeing "Chasing Wind" Isaiah, there were five other Seven-star Demons among today's challengers.
The remaining fifteen were Six-star Devils.
Without any surprises, in less than half a day, they had all contributed a winning streak to Roy.
Thus, Roy had become a super expert with a winning streak of ninety-eight.
He was only two battles away from "Hundred Consecutive Victories."
Just as Roy thought no one else would challenge him today and was preparing to leave the Blood Battle Stage, two figures flew onto the stage.
"Wait, Your Excellency Star, my brother and I both wish to challenge you. I wonder if you are available to accept the challenge now?"
"These, who are these two people..."
The moment they saw these two appear, the people on the Blood Battle Stage were stunned, and then became excited.
"No doubt about it, these two are the strongest under the Lotus Rock Lord."
"Mm, I've heard of them. I heard that the Edgar and Marshall brothers were Hundred Battle Experts from over three million years ago. After failing to challenge the lord of Lotus Rock Island, they joined the Lotus Rock Island Lord's command."
"Wow, a battle between three Hundred Battle Experts. Is this something we can watch for twenty Ink Stones?"
"Heh heh, what a steal. Good thing I brought a Floating Shadow Stone. Recording one could earn me tens of millions of Ink Stones..."
"Brother, you're still the foresighted one. Do you have any more Floating Shadow Stones? I'll buy one from you at ten times the price."
"Don't be ridiculous, ten times? Are you stupid or am I stupid? Unless you give me ten million Ink Stones now, I'd be stupid to sell it to you."
"Fine, ten million it is. Sell two to me!"
"..."
Both parties were clearly gambling.
The seller was betting that Star wouldn't accept the challenge, in which case he'd make a profit of twenty million Ink Stones for free. Of course, even if Roy accepted, he wouldn't lose anything.
The buyer, on the other hand, was betting that Star would accept the challenge from the two of them. He planned to record the fight and sell it. A battle recording of a Hundred Battle Expert, watched once for a million Ink Stones, wasn't excessive, was it?
Twenty million Ink Stones would be recouped if twenty people watched. Everything after that would be pure profit.
What business masterminds!
...
"Since you two are so interested, Star will naturally accompany you. Please!"
"However, are you two planning to fight one-on-one, or will you both attack at once?"
"Huh?"
Roy's words surprised not only Edgar and Marshall but also the spectators below the Blood Battle Stage, who became excited.
"Esteemed Star, my brother and I are not comparable to those who came before. Are you sure you want us to attack together?"
Compared to Edgar's anger, his older brother Marshall was much calmer. He put a hand on his brother's arm and confirmed with Roy.
"To be frank with you both, once I achieve a Hundred Consecutive Victories and obtain the Blood Battle Seal, I will issue a Lord's challenge to the Lotus Rock Lord."
"I believe that if I don't show some of my abilities, the Lotus Rock Island Lord might think I'm overestimating myself."
"Coincidentally, you two are trusted confidants of the Lotus Rock Lord. I want to prove to him my ability to challenge him by accepting your joint challenge."
"If possible, I want to challenge the Lotus Rock Lord tomorrow!"
For a Nine Nether Lord's challenge, the Lord has a ten-thousand-year grace period.
If the challenge isn't accepted within ten thousand years, the Lord's position is automatically transferred to the challenger.
Roy didn't want the Lotus Rock Lord to delay the challenge due to some messy life-related issues.
It was better for him to take the initiative and set the challenge time himself.
With so many people watching his fight on the Blood Battle Stage, Roy figured the Lotus Rock Lord wouldn't likely refuse his challenge after he defeated Edgar and Marshall.
"This..."
The Edgar brothers exchanged glances, then fell silent for a moment before nodding. "No problem, the Lord has accepted your challenge."
"Of course, that's assuming you can survive us both!"
"Clang, clang, clang, clang..."
After the Edgar brothers nodded, the arena administrator, Nelson, produced a gong from somewhere. He struck it a few times and announced the start of the battle.
"Mr. Star's ninety-ninth, the battle for a Hundred Consecutive Victories..."
"The challengers are the Hundred Battle Experts from three million years ago, Edgar and Marshall!"
"The challenge begins now!"
