"Congratulations to Mr. Star for achieving his seventy-sixth consecutive victory," Nelson, the administrator of the arena, announced with a smile after Old Bull stepped down from the stage.
"Now, we invite the next challenger - Chasing Wind."
"Chasing Wind" was once an arrogant wind-based superior god who spoke boldly before challenging Roy. However, after hearing about Roy's fifteen consecutive wins from his friends, he restrained himself. Witnessing the famous "Old Bull" being easily defeated by Roy, Chasing Wind completely lost his arrogance.
Both being Seven-Star Demons, Chasing Wind had just entered this realm, while Old Bull had a reputation of over ten million years in the Netherworld and had achieved eighty-two consecutive victories after arriving in the Nine Hells.
Of course, from today onwards, unless he starts a new challenge, Old Bull's winning streak has been ended by Roy.
"Mr. Star, I am Isaiah, the Seven-Star Demon of the Wind element. Pleased to meet you," Isaiah solemnly introduced himself. Roy smiled at him, having heard the things he said about him from the sidelines earlier.
Is he being polite now because he's afraid I might retaliate too harshly?
"Well, don't worry, I won't use too much force," Roy reassured Isaiah.
After saying this to Isaiah, Roy snapped his fingers.
"Humming..."
Hundreds of golden ripples appeared behind Roy, and various weapons took shape from the ripples of arcane mysteries.
"This..."
Seeing this scene, Isaiah's face turned pale. He remembered the power of these weapons demonstrated by Roy when battling Old bull.
He wasn't Old Bull. Taking this move, he probably wouldn't even have half a life left.
Immediately, Isaiah raised his hand and exclaimed loudly, "Wait, Mr. Star, I, I concede..."
"Huh..."
Watching Isaiah quickly fly down from the stage, Roy couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Haha, hahaha..."
"This guy, he's too funny, isn't he?"
With Roy's laughter, the audience outside the Blood Battle Arena also burst into laughter.
"Is he here to make jokes?"
"Yeah, after all, fighting Mr. Star won't lead to death. Why is he so frightened?"
These words entered Isaiah's ears, making his face turn red.
Indeed, they came to challenge Star because they heard that no one who fought against Star had died.
Now, running away before even fighting made them the subject of ridicule.
It could only be said that he felt guilty, fearing deliberate retaliation from Roy. Hence, upon seeing Roy use the "King's Treasure," he conceded first.
"Mr. Star's seventy-seventh battle, victorious!"
"Next challenger..."
Apart from the fleeing Isaiah, there were five other Seven-Star Demons challenging today. The remaining fifteen were Six-Star Demons.
As expected, in less than half a day, they all contributed to Roy's consecutive wins.
So far, Roy had achieved a staggering ninety-eight consecutive wins.
He was only two battles away from the "Hundred Consecutive Wins."
Just when Roy thought no one else would challenge him today and was preparing to leave the Blood Battle Arena, two figures flew onto the stage.
"Wait, Mr. Star, my brother and I would like to challenge you. Are you available to accept our challenge?"
"These...?" As the two appeared, everyone on the stage was momentarily stunned, but they soon became excited.
"They can't be wrong; these two are Lord Lotus Rock's strongest followers."
"Yeah, I've heard of them. Edgar and Marshall, the two brothers who were hundred-battle victors over three million years ago, failed when challenging the Lord of Lotus Rock Island and then joined the lord's ranks."
"Wow, a battle between three hundred-battle victors, and we can watch it for just twenty inkstones?"
"Hehe, that's a big win. Luckily, I brought Floating Image Stones; I can make tens of millions by recording and selling the fight."
"Brother, you had foresight; do you still have Floating Image Stones? I'll pay ten times the price."
"Don't joke around. Ten times? Are you kidding me? Unless you give me ten million inkstones, I won't sell them."
"Alright, ten million it is! Sell me two!"
These two were clearly betting.
The seller bet that Star wouldn't accept the challenge, so he would earn twenty million inkstones for nothing. Even if Roy accepted the challenge, he wouldn't lose.
The buyers, on the other hand, bet that Star would accept the challenge. They planned to record the fight's process, sell the Floating Image of the battle between three hundred-battle victors, and charge a million inkstones per viewing.
Twenty million inkstones would be recovered with twenty spectators, and everything after that would be pure profit.
All of them were business geniuses!
"Since you're both interested, I'll gladly oblige. However, are you two planning to fight separately or together?" Roy asked.
"Huh?" Hearing Roy's words, not only Edgar and Marshall were surprised, but even the spectators below the Blood Battle Arena were excited.
"Mr. Star, my brother and I are not comparable to the previous challengers. Are you sure you want us both to fight you together?"
Compared to Edgar's anger, Marshall, as the elder brother, appeared much calmer. He stopped his younger brother and asked Roy for confirmation.
"Not hiding anything, after achieving a hundred consecutive wins and obtaining the Blood Battle Seal, I plan to challenge the Lord of Lotus Rock," Roy explained. "I think if I don't display some strength, the Lord of Lotus Rock might think I'm overestimating my capabilities."
"Perfect, you two are trusted by the Lord of Lotus Rock. I want to prove my ability to challenge him by accepting both of your challenges. If possible, I'd like to challenge the Lord of Lotus Rock tomorrow!"
A Lord's challenge had a buffer period of ten thousand years.
If a Lord did not accept a challenge for ten thousand years, their position would automatically transfer to the challenger.
Roy didn't want the Lord of Lotus Rock to delay the challenge due to some chaotic reasons. It was better to take the initiative and set the challenge time first.
With so many people watching his battles on the Blood Battle Arena, after defeating Edgar and Marshall, it was unlikely that the Lord of Lotus Rock would refuse his challenge.
"Well..." Edgar and Marshall exchanged glances, then fell silent for a moment before nodding. "No problem, our Lord has already accepted your challenge."
"Of course, the premise is that you can survive from both of us!"
"Ding ding ding ding..."
After Edgar and Marshall nodded, Nelson, the arena's administrator, found a bronze gong from somewhere. After hitting it a few times, he announced the start of the battle.
"Mr. Star's ninety-ninth, one hundredth consecutive battle..."
"The challengers are the three hundred-battle victors from three million years ago, Edgar and Marshall!"
"The challenge begins now!"
