The power of space enveloped Lin Jiu, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already sitting on the bed in the exclusive room, and a large number of prompts appeared.

[Note: Sword Master has reached Lv.50, which is the upper limit level of Sword Master, and Sword Master has been changed, and has been temporarily locked as "Sword Master Lv.MAX". 】

[Check that the high-level energy has an impact on the Lv.MAX of the sword master.] 】

[You have been granted the promotion privilege Lv.MAX Sword Master.] 】

[Hint: Trials and assessments are required to advance to master-level abilities.] 】

[Hint: Due to the high-level energy bonus, the Hunter has been exempted from the trial assessment.] 】

[If you need to be promoted to a sword master, the hunter needs to pay: Grandmaster's Power Scroll (Complete) + Proof of Glory.] 】

[Hint: The Grandmaster's Power Scroll (Complete) can be crafted from the Grandmaster's Power Fragment, and ten copies of any fragment can be combined into "Grandmaster's Power (Complete)". 】

[Hint: The Proof of Glory needs to be challenged in the Proving Ground, this permission has been temporarily enabled, and the Hunter needs to consume 5,000 Paradise Coins for each challenge, and if the challenge is successful, you can get the Proof of Glory.] 】

……

The swordsmanship master was right in front of him, which made Lin Jiu's heart jump and then calm down. Lin Jiu didn't have the fragment of the power of the grandmaster, and everything he got was put in Daxius. At the same time, Dasius was also helping him collect the fragments of the Grandmaster's Power, and he was not far from gathering ten fragments now.

Because Dasius has a soul crystal in his hand, as long as he puts a little effort, he can definitely acquire the power of the grandmaster. Even at the high level of contractors, the demand for soul crystals is still maintained. If you have soul crystals, you can trade with them, which is much easier than buying them between peers.

Moreover, because of the arena gambling before, the Reincarnation Chamber of Commerce cut a large wave of leeks, from the original reliance on the name of the Chamber of Commerce to gain a firm foothold, has come from behind, not inferior to the first few chambers of commerce. There is no problem in acquiring the Grandmaster's Power fragment.

The reason why it hasn't been collected yet is because Dasius has been eyeing these special materials for a long time, and the power of the Grandmaster is only one of them, and sometimes the funds are inevitably a little insufficient, so they just take it at the right time.

Due to Lin Jiu's choice of the technique promotion route, now the sword master Lv.Max did not meet the promotion requirements, and did not transform, but only got the increase in swordsmanship damage, and did not gain new abilities.

The fragments of the Grandmaster's power had not yet been gathered, and Lin Jiu was not in a hurry about the other conditions for the time being.

"It's kind of interesting...... Lin Jiu received a message from Dacius in the email, and an invitation was attached. This invitation to an auction that is taking place on the high street.

This is a joint auction held by three parties, namely: God Emperor, Blood Gate, and Black Sail. Needless to say, this auction is a very ranked lineup below the fifth order.

It's no wonder that those things have never been converted into paradise coins and sent to me. It just happened to happen that this auction happened, and if nothing else, those high-quality materials were sent to this auction for auction.

"Tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock, you can go and join in the fun." Because of the existence of Dacius and the Reincarnation Chamber of Commerce, Lin Jiu rarely interacted with these people, and there was no need for that. So he has always been very low-key in the eyes of these people, and he has no impression.

The last time I rushed to the arena ranking, it was Lin Jiu's most high-profile one. Even so, because he was following Comrade Xiao Su to "pick up leaks", it did not attract much attention.

[Welcome to the Proving Ground, please select the mode.] 】

[Assist mode/combat mode.] 】

……

Lin Jiugang had come to the Proving Ground not long ago to experience his newly acquired abilities, and this time he came back for the sake of [Proof of Glory].

Neither mode was the one he was going to choose, and he flipped through the list in front of him and soon saw one very inconspicuous option: Challenge Mode.

Lin Jiu has already been authorized to challenge mode, so he only needs to spend 5,000 Paradise Coins to start the challenge.

[You have selected Challenge Mode and have consumed 5,000 Paradise Coins.] 】

[The challenger is about to enter the technique dojo, match the opponent: random.] 】

【Teleporting ......】

……

Lin Jiu's eyes flickered, and when his eyes returned, he was already in a dojo, which was about 400 square meters, the size of half a football field.

[In the image generation, the opponent has been matched: Akasha.] 】

A figure gradually appeared, with long light brown hair and green eyes, wearing a blue and white robe, and a black cloak behind him.

"It's such a magical place...... So who are you? Akasha looked at Lin Jiu, showed a bright smile, and said hello.

"Your opponent." Lin Jiu looked at the silver-white long sword on the other party's waist, pulled out the dawn sparrow and said.

"Offering you my sword skills." Akasha also drew her sword and smiled.

Mana: 1500 points

Strength: 95 (Sealing)

After critical hits, the caster increases critical damage by 5% and physical penetration by 10%, which can stack up to 10 times. (Sealing)

……

is another sword master in the world, and Lin Jiu is not surprised by the attribute skill configuration of his opponent, and he has long been mentally prepared. He was more puzzled that he needed to seal the opponent's attribute skills to fight him, so why not directly match an opponent who matched this configuration.

"Attention, I'm attacking." Akasha also gave Lin Jiu a very intimate reminder.

But before her reminder reached Lin Jiu's ears, Lin Jiu's pupils shrank suddenly, and Akasha on the opposite side only left an afterimage in place.

Lin Jiu turned around and raised his sword, trying to fend off Akasha's attack. In fact, Lin Jiu's reflexes kept up, and the Dawn Sparrow Sword was in front of the opponent's long sword.

But before Lin Jiu could make a new move, he felt a turn of his wrist, and it turned out that it was Shuji who was picked aside by Akasha's long sword. In this space, Lin Jiu's other equipment other than weapons could not be used.

The weapon was picked off, Lin Jiu did not give up resistance, and in the face of the attacking sword, he chose to avoid the vital point as much as possible. Akasha's long sword pierced Lin Jiu's body, Lin Jiu stepped forward and stepped on Akasha's foot, grabbed the opponent's long light brown hair with his left hand, and held the twilight sparrow with his right hand, once he grabbed the long hair, the swordsman would immediately follow.

"Is it so spelled? I'm going to die~" Akasha looked at Lin Jiu's movements, blinked her eyes, and said in a brisk tone.

Lin Jiu's fingertips touched a few strands of hair, but his body stiffened, and he felt a force burst out from the sword blade in his body, destroying his vitality. He was also powerless to make the next move, dying as his vitality dissipated.

……

"This strength is unreasonable!" Lin Jiu broke away from the challenge and fell into deep thought. Under normal circumstances, even in this challenge mode, he could hold on for three to five minutes and then die, and he didn't survive two minutes under this sword master.

Akasha's strength is sealed, but consciousness and experience have no effect. It is equivalent to that she is stronger than the characters matched by other challenge assessments.
