The most difficult game in history has descended upon the world, and players can obtain a random talent as soon as they log in.
Jiang Hao starts with a Supreme-level talent: as long as it is ...
"Honorable warrior, would you like to challenge the Colosseum?"
"Sure!"
"Hey? Aren't you going to wait a little longer? The weakened state will end in 20 minutes."
Jiang Hao glared at them, and the tens of thousands of sows immediately fell silent.
"I'm just... I'm just worried that if you die, I'll have to run back to your corpse."
"Is it any of your business?"
Jiang Hao reached out and grabbed the arm of the thousands of sows, then stepped into the arena. If it weren't for the fact that both of them needed to pass through the arena to leave the starting village map, Jiang Hao wouldn't have bothered teaming up with him.
Just seeing him makes me angry!
A white membrane blocked the middle of the arena. On the other side, three iron bars were placed side by side, holding a level 18 ordinary bison, a level 19 black iron polar bear, and a level 20 bronze white tiger.
"The battle will begin in 5 seconds. Player teams, please prepare."
As soon as the system notification ended, Jiang Hao saw the figures of tens of thousands of sows fade, and he could vaguely see his phantom slowly moving backward until it stopped at the edge of the arena.
The meaning was clear: he wanted Jiang Hao to go alone.
That damn bastard!
Jiang Hao turned his head away, not wanting to look at him again.
With one second left on the countdown, Jiang Hao raised his staff. The membrane in the center of the arena began to fade, and with a click, the iron fence holding the bison on the other side opened automatically. The bison leaped out with a nudge of its horns.
【Bison of the Colosseum】
Faction: Hostile
Level: 18
Life: 3600
Physical attack: 648
Physical defense: 93.6
Speed: 144
Skills: None
Jiang Hao glanced at the bison's attributes and immediately noticed the anomaly, while also understanding the difficulty of this game.
A level 18 ordinary monster had an attack power of 648, higher than some of the Iron-level monsters in the dungeon! If it weren't for its pitiful 3600 HP, Jiang Hao felt that other players wouldn't even need to play. This design also created a scarcity of warriors and a high reliance on equipment.
Without a warrior, any team composition is a joke. Without a warrior with high health and high defense, any team's leveling speed is a joke.
The warrior is indeed Lingxu's favorite son.
Thinking of this, Jiang Hao lowered his staff. The bison that was charging towards them suddenly vanished from its spot, and when it reappeared, its head was already beneath Jiang Hao's staff. Jiang Hao looked down at its head in confusion and saw that its two front legs had knelt down neatly.
Wow, so this is like trying to catch something even if you can't handle it!
-
White damage numbers floated above the bison's massive, still-stunned head, instantly emptying its health bar. Five seconds later, it collapsed to the ground with a thud.
Sold out instantly!
Gained 17 experience points.
"Huh? What happened?"
The bewildered sounds of tens of thousands of sows rose behind him, but Jiang Hao didn't bother to turn around and look at them.
"Player team has passed the first stage. The second stage will begin in 5 seconds. Player team, please prepare."
The rules of the arena had already been explained to the tens of thousands of sows. The second challenge was a level 19 polar bear, and Jiang Hao cast a detection spell on it beforehand.
The Polar Bear in the Colosseum
Faction: Hostile
Quality: Black Iron Grade
Level: 19
life:
Physical attack: 1140
Physical defense: 233
Speed: 191
Skill:
Tear: Swing your giant claws forward, dealing 120% of your attack power as damage to all targets within melee range in front of you.
Bite, tearing the target and dealing damage equal to 120% of your attack power.
The 5-second countdown ended, and with a click, the iron gate opened automatically. The polar bear waddled out, and upon seeing Jiang Hao, it pushed off with its hind legs and started running towards him.
Jiang Hao, too lazy to wait, swung his staff downwards again. The giant bear's body vanished instantly, reappearing beneath Jiang Hao's staff. Its head, with Jiang Hao's staff pressing against it, began to shake and sway, accompanied by the dizzying star effect above its head.
-
White damage numbers floated up above the polar bear's thick neck and small head, instantly emptying its health bar. Five seconds later, it collapsed to the ground like a lump of minced meat.
Another instant sell-out!
Gained 58 experience points.
"Player detected defeating an elite boss of at least their own level; talent effect enhanced, damage increased by 100 points..."
"Damn it, I got caught by a short seller!"
The strange squeals of tens of thousands of sows rang out again beside him, filled with shock and bewilderment. However, the sound was so loud that Jiang Hao couldn't hear the system notification for his talent advancement.
Jiang Hao glared at him again, which startled the tens of thousands of sows nearby.
"Player team has passed the second stage. The third stage will begin in 5 seconds. Player team, please prepare."
White Tiger in the Colosseum
Faction: Hostile
Quality: Bronze (World Boss)
Level: 20
life:
Physical attack: 7600
Physical defense: 2000
Speed: 260
Tear: Swings its giant claws forward, dealing 100% of its attack power as damage to all targets within melee range in front of it. This attack has a chance to cause 50% of its attack power as bleeding damage.
Bite, tearing the target and dealing damage equal to 120% of your attack power.
Its attributes far exceed those of a typical bronze-level monster, and are almost equivalent to those of a silver-level monster.
After the 5-second countdown ended, the iron gate opened automatically with a click, and the white tiger leaped out of the gate, roaring angrily as it lunged at Jiang Hao. However, Jiang Hao had already swung his staff downwards. With a howl, the white tiger's nearly two-meter-long body suddenly vanished from its spot, reappearing in a prone position, its head resting directly beneath Jiang Hao's staff.
-
White damage numbers floated above the tiger's dazed head; its health bar was already half empty. Jiang Hao raised his staff and brought it down on the white tiger's head once more.
-
The white damage numbers floated above the White Tiger's head again, and it wasn't until the tenth hit that the White Tiger's health bar was emptied. Then its head drooped, and it lay motionless on the ground, dead!
Gained 208 experience points.

"Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, this...this..."
Tens of thousands of sows watched in stunned silence. The overwhelming control and devastating damage left the Bronze-level White Tiger with no chance to retaliate. In their eyes, the White Tiger, which might not even be easily killed by a ten-person elite team, was like a docile kitten in Jiang Hao's presence, easily crushed with just a few blows. What puzzled the tens of thousands of sows even more was that Jiang Hao's attack not only forcibly stunned the Bronze-level boss, but the additional damage was also 100 points higher than before!
"Oh, this..."
It was as if Jiang Hao's staff had struck him on the head, rendering him speechless. He knew perfectly well that Jiang Hao couldn't use skills under the influence of the God-Slaying Curse. And even now, Jiang Hao was still in a weakened state, with his attribute values reduced by 90%!
Could it be talent? But what kind of talent could be so extraordinary?
"Player detected defeating an elite boss of level or higher. The effect of the talent [Stunning Mercy] is enhanced, increasing damage by 100 points. Current true damage points."
"Player has been detected to have killed a target of level 20 or higher. The effect of the talent [Heart of Immortality] has been enhanced, increasing all attributes by 1 point. Current increase in all attributes: 2 points."
"Server-wide announcement: Congratulations to player Lord of Hell for defeating the level 20 Bronze-level world boss [White Tiger of the Arena]. As the first player on the server to defeat a Bronze-level world boss, you are rewarded with 60 gold coins, 60 free attribute points, 30 skill points, 15 class points, and one Bronze Treasure Chest. This announcement is made to encourage you!"
