C20 Bounty Hunter Nether King

Upon this realization, he was reassured. After exchanging pleasantries with Enforcing Justice for Heaven, the two engaged in combat. Moments later, his adversary, unwilling to accept defeat, dissipated into a wisp of shadow, vanquished by Enforcing Justice for Heaven.

Enforcing Justice for Heaven breathed a sigh of relief. As he had suspected, martial arts experts of his caliber were rare; the majority of players were average individuals, easily bested by him.

Yet, Enforcing Justice for Heaven was disconcerted to have earned a mere 40 points from the recent skirmish. To achieve the esteemed World Unrivaled status required a daunting 5000 points. How long would that journey be?

What compounded the challenge was the clear stipulation in the announcement: victories would yield points, but defeats would deduct them. This made climbing the ranks significantly tougher.

But on reflection, this made sense. The Martial God Set, by name alone, suggested a minimum of Red Grade quality. To date, he had scarcely encountered even Blue Grade items, so acquiring the Martial God Set was no trivial feat.

With a steadfast mindset, Enforcing Justice for Heaven entered the next match, resolved to continuously compete in the arena and amass a wealth of experience before hunting monsters. After all, he was in no rush to level up.

A glimmer signaled the arrival of his next opponent, who boasted 45 points—five more than him. Clearly, the arena's matchmaking system paired contenders with closely matched scores.

Enforcing Justice for Heaven glanced at his opponent's name and couldn't help but find it peculiar—Nether King. He chuckled, unconcerned. Little did he know, this seemingly insignificant name would soon become the source of much adversity.

The fight commenced swiftly. As a swordsman, Enforcing Justice for Heaven wielded his blade, while his adversary, a Bounty Hunter and assassin, brandished a compact dagger.

Their differing armaments offered no advantage; their combat power was identical. Victory would hinge solely on their respective battle experience.

Enforcing Justice for Heaven initiated the attack, eager to conclude the fight quickly and avoid unnecessary delays.

As soon as he made his move, he aimed a stab at his opponent's vital throat area. His sword's length gave him an advantage, embodying the adage that an inch longer is an inch stronger, making it exceedingly difficult for his adversary to counter the attack to the upper body.

Enforcing Justice for Heaven had thought this strike would surely end the battle, but to his surprise, the Nether King's strength far exceeded his expectations. With a mere twist of his head, the Nether King effortlessly evaded Enforcing Justice for Heaven's assault.

Moreover, after sidestepping the attack, the Nether King's small dagger, swift as a venomous snake, thrust directly at Enforcing Justice for Heaven's palm. An inch longer is an inch stronger, but an inch shorter is an inch riskier. Different weapons possess their unique advantages and disadvantages.

Realizing he had underestimated his opponent, Enforcing Justice for Heaven acknowledged that this adversary was no ordinary individual. No ordinary person could wield a weapon with such mastery.

With renewed respect for his opponent, Enforcing Justice for Heaven steeled himself for a serious confrontation.

His intuition was correct; the Nether King was indeed no ordinary man. Moreover, he shared the same profession as a Bounty Hunter in the Real World, where he was a notorious assassin. The moniker Nether King was his infamous alias within the assassin community.

He was called the Nether King because of his exceptionally brutal and ferocious methods. Moreover, he had never failed a mission he undertook, earning him his fearsome reputation in the industry.

One was a merciless assassin, the other an Inheritor of ancient martial arts. Both possessed significant combat skills, albeit from different schools of thought, guaranteeing an intense clash between them.

As time ticked away, after a grueling half-hour, the battle was finally decided. Enforcing Justice for Heaven lay defeated on the ground, a dagger embedded in his neck.

Having secured the victory, the Nether King breathed a sigh of relief. He had risked everything, deliberately revealing a vulnerability to provoke Enforcing Justice for Heaven's attack. Luckily, Enforcing Justice for Heaven's reflexes were just a tad slower, allowing the Nether King to strike first and target a critical spot, clinching his triumph.

"Enforcing Justice for Heaven? Now I remember, this player must be the highest level one currently. It's no surprise his level is so high; he kills monsters with much more ease than I do."

After Enforcing Justice for Heaven vanished, Nether King finally recalled who he was.

Even though he emerged victorious this time, Nether King knew all too well that catching up in the game's levels would be a formidable challenge. His early action was driven by a simple fact: he was a Bounty Hunter, and a Bounty Hunter's primary mission is to eliminate targets.

To be frank, he excelled at taking down human adversaries, but the monsters outside were not made of human bone and muscle; their anatomical structure was entirely different. His usual methods for dispatching people were ineffective against them.

Enforcing Justice for Heaven, on the other hand, was a different story. His combat skills were part of a comprehensive system, effective against both humans and other creatures. Mastering his techniques meant possessing formidable combat prowess.

Reflecting on this, Nether King couldn't help but feel envious of Enforcing Justice for Heaven. If he had those incredible abilities, his level would likely be quite high by now.

The fight was spectacular, yet, regrettably, no one witnessed the recent battle. And this wasn't an isolated event; similar scenes played out for both Nether King and Enforcing Justice for Heaven, as well as others. The game's hyper-realism drew a diverse crowd from all walks of life.

As a result, many who shunned the spotlight, or those who thrived in the public eye, all entered the game to showcase their talents.

Lin Tian set the ultimate level as World Unrivaled. Was that merely a casual choice of name? It now seems reaching the World Unrivaled status is far from simple; the adversaries one must face are much more formidable than one might imagine.

Furthermore, Lin Tian intended to reset this level every month. Essentially, a month later, the level would be zeroed, and everyone's points would start from scratch, challenging players anew.

In other words, to claim the Martial God Set, one must attain the World Unrivaled level within a month. Considering the current performance of all players, no one seems to have that capability, not even Enforcing Justice for Heaven or Nether King.
