?
[Your opponent has epted your challenge!]
[5,000 Contribution Points have been deducted!]
[Please make your way to thebat arena!]
[Failure to do so means automatic forfeit!]
Legs did not hesitate.
Picking up his Obsidian Spear that had been at his side while he trained to his body''s full potential for days, he levitated towards thebat arena.
As a Grade B Super, Legs still didn''t have the power to levitate on sheer energy alone, instead what he used was a gravity boot.
It enabled him to levitate by burning energy.
His speed was fast, he arrived in just 5 seconds.
Thud!
Hended just outside thebat arena.
At this moment, a massive blue shield epassed thebat arena, a shield that was powerful enough to withstand the casual attack of a Cmity Grade Super.
Despite the fact that this battle was just organized a few seconds ago, over a hundred Pugilist trainees were already gathered at this moment.
Battles were ways for them to observe the cmity path of their opponents and not just that, every battle at this realm was intense and gave them inspiration on how to progress on their cmity paths.
Some of them that were stuck mostly came here for epiphanies.
Afterall, it was not every day that the trainees here got to see battles since it took long periods to improve an inch in the Grade B realm.
It was when the entric trainee came that everything changed.
He challenged trainees almost every other day.
Also, at this moment, Legs'' opponent was already here.
The red-haired Pugilist red at him with fiery eyes.
He smirked. "Here to waste some more contribution points?"
Having fought Legs multiple times in the past few days, losing 5,000 contribution points anding back each time, this yer became irritated.
Not for the reason you would expect, he became irritated because his opponent seemed to be one of those rich overpampered heirs.
He was probably the descendant of some immensely powerful super who held a high position in Nak State, so he had the luxury toze away while his parents paved his pathway to power and stardom.
He hated people like this with passion.
"Answer me, dog!" He snapped on being ignored.
Despite being called a dog, Legs did not react to it, rather his attention was on the old Pugilist with white hair and beard that was looking at them.
Like the other, this Pugilist instructor had a stern look on his face.
"Trainee #1,021 and Trainee 612, enter the battle arena".
"You have only 5 minutes to defeat your opponent".
"If 5 minutes is exceeded with no one being defeated, it''s a draw".
This was when the blue shield covering thebat arena finally opened and they walked in. Once they were in, it closed up and Legs looked at his opponent.
"Are you ready?"
The red-haired Pugilist snorted. "More ready than you".
Legs nodded. "Good, you''ll need it".
DING!
As soon as the bell rang, like usual, Legs acted but this time, it instantly became clear to the Pugilist that something was not right.

It was almost the same notification but something changed.
It was no longer just Rage Demon; it was now Rage Demon King.
The difference seemed tiny but it meant everything.
This was a different version of the tank with anger issues.
BZZZ!
Instantly after Legs summoned all his beasts and fused with them, his opponent, the Pugilist felt an apocalyptic pressure hit against his chest.
He felt breathless instantly as he started suffocating.
In just 2 days, Legs'' aura changedpletely.
This was no longer the same Nightmare Hippopotamus.
It was just 2 days but these 2 days meant everything. In these 2 days, Legs did not just fune his fighting techniques more, but he also achieved the legendary feat of having a body with the strength potential cap for a grade.
Legs'' sheer body strength increased by a factor of almost 10 times!
Mix it with the growth of his beasts'' physicality too and it was evident that he was now an entirely different monster from 2 days ago.
The Pugilist was shocked by the pressure but he still attacked.
Legs had always had a stronger body than him despite being a Summoner, his advantage that helped him win had always been his powerful techniques.
Not this time though, Legs grabbed his spear tighter, then…
-----
You have activated Self-Created Technique: Nature Connection!
----
BOOM!
He stabbed with his spear and that one stab ended it all.
All the spectators saw was a bright sh of light.
Then the next moment, they saw an unconscious Pugilist that was being protected by a protective aura that was released by the Pugilist instructor.
This meant that thest attack would have ended his life.
"…!" They all gasped in shock.
One attack to obliterate Trainee #612, this was ridiculous!
[Trainee #1,021 has defeated Trainee #612!]
[Do you want to continue and issue another challenge?]
"Yes". Legs answered immediately.
Then, the Pugilist instructor looked up at the spectators.
The format of thebat arena only allowed a lower-ranked trainee to throw challenges to all higher-ranked trainees and not vice versa. The higher-ranked trainees will determine if they have the power to fight the challenger.
If they could, they epted the challenge to gain the contribution points.
If the challenger won though, he would automatically take the position of the defeated trainee to be updated during the next trainee ranking update.
This meant that Trainee #1 could even ept his challenge right now and it won''t be bullying, Legs got that much but he was not scared.
Those high-ranked Trainees were too busy to pay attention to weaklings like him, they only fight inbat arenas when the stakes are high enough.
That was why he was confident that the opponent would be on his level.
While he waited for his opponent though, Legs reflected.
''Nature Connection''. This was the first self-created technique that he created topliment his powerful body during the training.
The world was filled with natural neutral mana.
Mana turning into elemental and other types of mana were always influenced by different factors. As for Nature Connection that he created though, he created it after getting an epiphany.
Nature Connection enabled him to connect to the natural neutral mana in the world, this connection enabled him to draw upon some of the powers of the world to amplify his weapon attacks.
As for how he almost killed the Pugilist, he simply gathered all the nature energy that he connected to at the tip of the spear like a bomb.
Then on stabbing the spear, all this gathered energyunched out like aser, creating a ranged attack that was powerful enough to one-shot that Pugilist.
This was Legs'' new power after upgrade!
[Trainee #405 has epted challenge!]
Legs picked up his Obsidian Spear and got ready for battle.
Thud!
Shended close to thebat arena.
Compared to the previous Pugilist, Trainee #405 was a blonde beauty.
Yes, she was a female Pugilist who wielded 2 light swords. It was clear that her Cmity Path was focused on maximizing agility to the peak.
"Trainee #1,021 and Trainee #405, enter the battle arena".
"You have only 5 minutes to defeat your opponent".
"If 5 minutes is exceeded with no one being defeated, it''s a draw".
The blue shield opened and she entered inside.
Compared to the first Pugilist, she did not talk and she had a focused look on her face, carefully scrutinizing every detail and move that Legs made.
Then…
DING!
This female Pugilist took a step and… she exploded!
BOOM!
The attack arrived like lightning, almost as fast as the speed of light.
One moment, his opponent was at the other side of the arena, and the next, her twin swords were already digging deep into Legs'' neck!
"…" Legs gasped in shock.
He feared for his life but he quickly calmed down.
At this moment, her twin swords were digging into his neck, blood flowed but that was all. She could not severe his head, his body strength and resilience were on a whole other levelpared to this Pugilist.
His Honey Badger Armor Supreme Talent was no bluff.
Legs grabbed her swords with his free left hand, ignoring the pain then…
BAM!
Legs rammed forward with his shoulder but she reacted fast.
Her agility was insane.
Drawing back instantaneously, she evaded his attack as with her twin swords, she turned into a raging green wind that started circling him.
For 2 seconds, she did not attack, only encircling him.
Legs finally understood her cmity path.
She focused on absolute speed in sacrifice for base power. But with her rapid speed, herbat style was to wait until her opponent revealed an opening and she would take advantage by attacking with everything she got.
The momentum from her speed alone would give her terrifying power.
Legs'' eyes gleamed, then he moved.
''An opening!'' She thought.
Whoosh!
She was really insanely fast!
Legs only saw a blur but he focused on his instincts and reacted.
-----
You have activated Self-Created Technique: Body-Gravity Explosion!
----
BOOM!
What the spectators first saw was a sh of gray energy then a grunt reverberated in thebat arena followed by her coughing blood.
She was stunned and left dizzy; he ruthlessly took advantage.
Her agility was too fast, Legs could not stab with his spear fast enough so he simply stabbed it down on thebat arena.
He pounced on her with his bare fists.
She was already recovering but Legs'' huge left palm grabbed her by the neck before she couldpletely recover, this spelt her doom.
She tried to resist but it only felt like the resistance of an ant before a cat.
Clenching his right fist, Legs'' eyes gleamed as he punched straight at her face with incredible power.
BAM!
The protective aura surrounded her head.
She was already unconscious.
The battle was over.
"…!" Shock rippled through this training.
''What just happened?!''
