Blood Assimilation

Chapter 269 - 269 Lacking The Basics, Finally Taking the Stage



That was mainly why he never flinched when he fought people for the first time. After all, despite being an amateur when it came to fighting experience, he had a solid foundation after mastering basic movement and fist technique.

As such, when he fought the sunglasses man and his men, despite being outnumbered and cornered, he wasn’t afraid at all. This was not only because he was confident in his newfound abilities, but also in his fighting techniques. All that contributed to him barely winning against them.

Furthermore, he had already gained rich and valuable experience from his recent encounter with those demons. Right now, he could even say with confidence that he was now a professional fighter that had just graduated from being an amateur. As such, from his point of view, these Gladiators are not that amazing at all. The main reason for that was very simple.

They simply lack the basics.

Otherwise, judging by their strength alone, they are strong enough to compete with him. He just hoped that it was just these two guys that lacked the basics for some reason, and not all of them who didn’t know the basics. This way, he would be able to surpass his limits while fighting them. If not, he was afraid that he would not be able to exceed his limits in time before the deadline for his temporary attributes.

...

Even though Randy had hoped that what he was afraid of was not the case, he was soon proven otherwise and left disappointed. This was because he discovered that after the match ended with the Great Sword Dien losing to Fortress Defender Manock, the next match also lacked rhythm, as they all fought in the same manner as the first match.

‘Don’t tell me…’ Randy suddenly recalled what Gutz said to him when they were on their way to register. He said that most people fought with the same fighting style. At this point, Randy finally understood what he meant and then inwardly sighed.

.....

‘Hopefully, the one I’d be facing would have some different fighting style or something. Otherwise, I don’t think today will be my lucky day. I need to think about where to start hunting after my temporary attributes expire.’

On the side, Gutz seemed to be enjoying this man-to-man brawl with twinkles in his eyes, itching to go out there and fight. Randy gave him a side glance and shook his head helplessly.

Gutz noticed that he wasn’t enthralled by watching the matches and couldn’t help but ask: “What’s wrong? Did you not learn anything from watching the matches?”

“That’s not it, it’s just that—”

“Gladiator number 69, come to the stage and prepare yourself!!”

At this moment, the voice of the umpire resounded loudly shortly after the 68th match ended.

Randy had no choice but to pause his speech and instead said: “It’s my turn now. I will head out.”

“Alright.” Gutz suddenly advised: “Since this is your first time fighting without your skills or energy, remember to pay close attention to the movement of your opponent, or you will lose terribly. I remember when I… Never mind, just show your opponent that you’re fearless, and you might win your matches.”

Randy smiled and said: “I will keep that in mind.”

After saying that, Randy took off his black coat and top shirt, revealing his perfect muscles, stunning Gutz, who had a fetish for muscles.

“I knew it! When I groped them that time, I knew you were a true man among men! Such godly muscles!” Gutz blurted out such embarrassing lines with a dazed look on his face, as he was mesmerized by Randy’s perfect body.

Randy had trained for many years using the Graviton room, so his muscles were near perfect and would instantly shock even professional trainers. Furthermore, after awakening and receiving the strengthening effect of the various energies and then evolving his body recently, his body could now be considered to be in perfect shape. It was no doubt that Gutz would be shocked when he saw his bare body.

Under Gutz’s shocked and strange gaze, Randy hurriedly jumped from Spectators’ Seat, landed on the squarely ground near the arena, and then continued by walking up the staircase that led to the elevated platform in the middle.

Everyone in the Spectators’ Seats was shocked by the flamboyant appearance displayed by Randy when he jumped from a height of nearly 60 meters and then landed on the ground without any disorientation.

“Such gaudy appearance. Who is this guy?”

“That’s right. Who is he? I haven’t seen him before. Is he a new Gladiator?”

“Most likely. He seemed like a nimble one. He didn’t even adjust his fall, but he still landed perfectly.”

Meanwhile, in one of the VIP booths at the center of the Spectators’ Seat, two figures sat next to each other. They observed the appearance of this new Gladiator.

One of them spoke to a servant.

“Is that him? The one that defeated the demons Lieutenants back in Alpheotus City?”

“Yes, your highness. According to the description gathered from the intel and his new face, it should be him.”

“Oh! So it is him!” This person exclaimed, displaying a blissful face, whispering inwardly: ‘He looks quite handsome!’

However, this person, who was in fact the Crown Princess, said outwardly: “I want to confirm his talent for myself, and see if he qualifies to have such praise from the Royal Council.”

On the side, the second figure, who was the middle-aged man called Great Lord Yonder, glanced at the Crown Princess briefly and displayed a knowing expression that says he could see through her true intentions.

He thought of something and then suddenly took the initiative to ask: “Is this young Gladiator that famous?”

The Crown Princess’s eyes widened in momentary astonishment upon hearing the middle-aged man’s voice. She had been painstakingly trying to strike up a conversation with this old man for a long time, but she failed at every single attempt she made.

But for some reason, he was now taking the initiative with her. Why? Did he change his mind because of that young man? That can’t be right!
