"I’m using... dirty tactics?" Yuan could hardly believe his ears.
"So you expect me to just stand there and take your attacks?"
"I expect you to fight me properly, not run around and force me to waste my energy!" the young man exclaimed indignantly, as though he were the one being wronged.
Yuan scratched his head and asked, "So you are blaming me for your own lack of control and efficiency? Instead of wasting your energy like an idiot who refuses to learn, you should try a different approach when one method does not work."
"I am doing you a favor by letting you attack me for free, yet here you are, wasting my generosity..." Yuan shook his head.
In truth, Yuan had wanted to see how the cultivators of this world used Limitless, but he quickly realized his miscalculation.
’If I want to observe a proper cultivator, I should do so at a higher rank. Most people at the lower ranks will probably be like this amateur...’ he sighed inwardly.
Yuan used a movement technique and suddenly vanished from the young man’s sight.
"H-He vanished?!" the young man cried out loud.
Then, he heard a familiar voice resounding from behind him.
"I know I said that I’d give you ten minutes, but... I doubt anything would change even if I gave you a hundred minutes, so I will end things here."
Before the young man could react, he felt a sharp, piercing pain in his neck.
<You have died>
When the young man came to, he was back in the waiting room, a death notification floating before him.
"What the hell was that?!" the young man cried out loud.
He had watched many matches prior to participating in them himself, but he had never seen a cultivator fight the way his opponent had.
Meanwhile, Yuan was also teleported back to the waiting room after his victory.
<You have won your match>
<You have received Limitless as a reward>
<Your cultivation has reached Second Level Second Ascension>
"My cultivation increases just like that? I still have five months before the recruitment, so I might as well increase my cultivation as much as possible!"
With that in mind, Yuan immediately started matchmaking for his second fight.
A minute later, he was teleported to the arena.
This time, he found himself on a floating platform in the middle of the sea—the same arena he had seen on the display not long ago.
Standing on the opposite side of the platform was another young man, seemingly in his teens, and his cultivation was also at the Third Ascension.
The young man raised an eyebrow after seeing Yuan’s cultivation. He rubbed his eyes and looked again to make sure he wasn’t imagining things.
"Haha! A free win!"
<Match will begin in 10 seconds>
This time, Yuan remained silent as he waited for the countdown to reach zero.
Ten seconds later, the match began. The young man made the first move, attacking in a manner similar to Yuan’s previous opponent.
Yuan avoided the attack with ease, and the young man immediately followed up with another powerful attack.
"..."
"W-Why aren’t my attacks hitting him?!"
The young man exclaimed in shock.
