Chapter 546: Phantasmal Battle Armor
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There were less than fifty elites who managed to make it to Dragon Tiger Arena in one day, and when the second day arrived, even fewer people reached it!
Even though all the great players wanted to get to Dragon Tiger Arena, the greater their hope was, the more disappointed they became. The longer they fought, the stronger the fighters guarding the stage became. Aside from a few extraordinary famous players and dark horses, no one managed to make it into Dragon Tiger Arena after they lost.
In the end, there were a bit more than seventy players in Dragon Tiger Arena, and the arena became the symbol of the greatest elites in China server.
“Dude, you’re lucky that you managed to get in at this moment.”
Happy dissed Little North, who had been on a quest and had missed the timing to return to his sect, which was why he searched for an elite in his sect, then used a special channel and cleared an even more difficult challenge to be brought over.
Little North stood in front of Happy while looking a little pleased with himself after he got lucky, but he also looked a little embarra.s.sed as he scratched the back of his head.
“Boss, you know that I’ve been working hard for the things over at Black Rose’s side. I’ve walked up and down Emei Sect multiple times so much that I’ve practically become a wild monkey.”
“You’re complaining about me?” Black Rose glared at Little North in slight vexation. “You’re the one who came over when you heard that there are a lot of my clan members who are single and refused to leave.”
Black Rose had relied on her extraordinary Life-stealing Golden Silver Hoop and precariously fought her way into Dragon Tiger Arena.
Little North pulled a long face and quickly tried to mend the situation. “Big sis, I didn’t do anything wrong! Look at what I did over this period of time! Even if I didn’t contribute, at least I worked hard… You can’t just expose my shortcomings.”
“And even after you’ve worked for so long, you didn’t bring anyone back?” Thunderous Battle asked jokingly with a grin.
Little North put on a teary expression, and there was a hitch in his voice when he spoke. “How could I? I’ve already signed a contract to sell my body, and they still want to bring me into the clan! If it weren’t because my will was strong, I might have already married into the clan.”
When Happy, Momo, Thunderous Battle, Silver Wolf, Wind Chimes, Young Fallen Rain, Ancient Wind, Feng Zhi (who refused to leave Mu Clan after he lost to Little North after challenging him), Lin Xiao, and Red Dust heard Little North’s complaints, they all laughed.
Not far away, Blood Robes, Monk with Thick Eyebrows, Dream Clouds, and Zhou Yu watched the lively atmosphere at the Murong Clan with incredibly complicated gazes.
Seven of Mu Clan’s seventy-two top-cla.s.s elites had gotten into Dragon Tiger Arena! Along with Wind Chimes, they had eight, while Cla.s.s One Hall only had four. There showed up to be a difference between the sects in terms of top-cla.s.s elites.
Even though having four top-cla.s.s elites already made them worth their top position, because Towering Palace and Chivalry Sect only had two people who made it in, when they saw the group of elites beside Happy, they could not help but feel fear.
After all, aside from the group of people in front of them, there were also a lot of famous elites in Mu Clan who never showed up, such as All-powerful Medicinal Stone, who loved to wander about the land, former Faction Master of Beautiful Robes Faction, Phoenix Dances in Beautiful Robes, and the human tank One Circle.
Also, Mu Clan had been developing very quickly recently, and once they set up the tournament system, their elites were as numerous as the stars. Each of their branches was strong, and many powerful players popped up in Mu Clan like mushrooms after a shower.
By then, Mu Clan had already developed to a stage where they could stand as equals with Cla.s.s One Hall, or even to the point where Cla.s.s One Hall had to look up to them.
Silence reigned among them.
Dream Clouds’ silver veil swayed slowly. She examined Happy’s group with a grave expression before she looked toward the other groups in the area. Lu Mingyue stood in a remote area far away, and he did not form any group with anyone else, just like One Emperor.
Towering Palace’s Merciless Saber had entered Dragon Tiger Arena together with his palace master, Clear Music. They stood together with Vast Heaven, who was in the spotlight right then. He was in high spirits, and the three people had a great time talking to each other.
The others also had their own positions. Some stood alone while others formed groups of three-five to talk to each other while waiting quietly for the final moment of the martial arts tournament to arrive.
At that moment, Dragon Tiger Arena sank into a strange atmosphere.
Most of the people who had lost their challenges had their fates sealed and could only be spectators.
Another group of people were uncertain as to whether they should go up on the stage. They hesitated on what sort of opponent they should choose to earn more points.
The few people who were top-cla.s.s players and had won their first round of challenges like Happy were waiting quietly for the first person to go up and begin the second round of challenges.

“If this goes on, how long are we going to wait?”
The people at Happy’s side talked to each other with an air of familiarity, but even they felt a little helpless toward the silence on Dragon Tiger Arena.
Little North finally could not hold it in anymore.
“If they don’t dare to go up, let’s do so ourselves, Silver Wolf. We haven’t started our challenges yet, anyway.”
“Sure.”
Silver Wolf had been busy in the real world for quite some time because of some matters there: the sales of his battle replay and the arrival of his three brothers. It had delayed him for quite a long time, which was why he had yet to start his challenges.
When he heard Little North’s suggestion, he nodded and agreed to it without hesitation!
“Be careful.”
Happy knew that their strength was extraordinary, and they each had their own methods, which was why after he reminded them to be careful, he just wrapped his arms over his chest and stood by the side to watch.
Silver Wolf did what he usually did. He switched to the full fourth-echelon Golden Armor Set that was similar to Happy’s and fourth-echelon Golden Gloves. Then, he calmly walked onto the stage.
Little North giggled and brought out very eye-catching black equipment from his Universe Bag. Once he changed into it, the black light flowing on the patterns on the equipment fused together in a neat and orderly manner. He seemed to be enveloped in a faint layer of black smoke, which made him look very peculiar.
“You managed to get the full Phantasmal Battle Armor Set from Sky Demon Sect?”
Even Happy could not help but quirk his eyebrows once he recognized the set’s origins.
Phantasmal Battle Armor Set was even more famous than Golden Armor Set. It was known for its bizarre and poisonous nature. When its user moved and reached their maximum speed, it would trigger the unique effect of Phantasmal Battle Armor—Phantasmal Figures!
It could create multiple illusions to confuse the enemy.
When the user attacked, smoke would surround them, making it so the others would be unable to figure out their precise attack trajectory nor would know how to attack.
Also, the defenses of Phantasmal Battle Armor were not any lower than those of Golden Armor.
When Happy saw the thickness of the smoke around Phantasmal Battle Armor, he knew that it was at least third-echelon or even above.
Then, Little North brought out a black arm that was as dark as ink and incredibly eye-catching. When he put it on, many people instantly saw a faint layer of dark clouds appear in the sky.
When Little North switched to his full gear, he looked like a demon who had walked out of h.e.l.l. His entire body was surrounded by black fog, and he looked very mysterious and strange.
The people who were fighting in the distance smelled a pungent stench and felt a suffocating presence. Quite a number of people in the righteous path frowned in the spectator seats.
“Which sect does he belong to?”
“How could we allow this sort of person to enter?”
But despite them saying that, Little North was not the first person who seemed to be evil but had entered Hero’s Mountain Villa!
“I am Little North, disciple from a sect that shall not be named. I have come to show my strength!”
Little North’s Bone-corroding Palm had already reached Grandmaster Realm, and it allowed his palm to swiftly release a faint layer of poison. But with the black smoke concealing it, no one could notice it.
