My Ability Pool is Superior

“The venue is only so big, so let’s reduce the luck factor a bit.”

While the two Death Fighters in the venue were preparing to engage in fierce fight, Lu Bai suddenly spoke up.

If it were just talk, these two Death Fighters in the venue, when pushed to desperation, would still use their abilities as needed.

However, to the disbelief of these two, including the other Death Fighters around them, as soon as Lu Bai said this.

It was almost as if his words became reality; all Death Fighters in the venue were horrified to discover that the abilities they had just obtained, without even having a chance to use them, simply disappeared into thin air.

Especially those Death Fighters who had chosen relatively good abilities; they could no longer control their expressions at all.

Even with Lu Bai presiding above, these Death Fighters in the venue couldn’t help but exclaim aloud.

Because this was truly beyond their imagination; they had never even heard of such a thing.

“A Mahayana Stage Cultivator has such means where words become reality?”

Even with the fact right before their eyes, the Death Fighters could only suspect that Lu Bai had used some special method, rather than an ability.

After all, an ability that invalidates other Death Fighters’ abilities would be considered too overpowered no matter how you think about it.

Lu Bai clearly had no intention of explaining to them; he just waved his hand, signaling them to continue.

After all, this opportunity to survive was given by Lu Bai; no Death Fighter dared to express dissatisfaction toward him.

With things having come to this point, regretting it was useless; it was better to think about how to take out the opponent.

Simple paired fierce fight unfolded again in the Duel Arena.

But after this little interlude, some Death Fighters inevitably had unstable mindsets.

In several matches, the side with clear strength advantage instead exposed flaws during the fierce fight, allowing the opponent to seize the chance and lose.

【Ding!】

【Points +2, Current Points: 196, Current Rank 1/75】

As the final battle came to an end, Lu Bai’s points accumulated in this round of Deathmatch Duel were about to break through the 200 mark.

The points he could obtain were certainly more than that.

In fact, the faces of the remaining fifty-four duel winners showed little joy.

The reason was simple: to open the Third Round Ability Pool and Target Mission, twenty-five more Death Fighters needed to be eliminated.

This problem that even elementary school students could calculate was naturally clear to all these Death Fighters present.

Moreover, these Death Fighters present put themselves in his shoes.

If it were them in Lu Bai’s position, they would definitely think that rather than expend great effort searching everywhere in Xuanzhou, digging three feet deep to find and eliminate those hidden guys.

It would be much more convenient to simply eliminate half of the Death Fighters present.

The strange atmosphere didn’t last long; a Death Fighter who had already reached Foundation Establishment Stage took the initiative to stand up and say, “Big Boss, let us duel one more round.”

“That’s right, it’s just one more match anyway.”

“Just draw lots like before.”

Death Fighters confident in their strength voiced their agreement one after another, hoping to take control of their chance to survive into their own hands.

As for those Death Fighters who luckily won from the fierce fight, they had other ideas, but unfortunately, their numbers were clearly fewer, and their voices weren’t loud enough.

Lu Bai had no opinion on this; if they wanted to fight, let them fight—anyway, the remaining fifty-four Death Fighters could just be divided into twenty-seven groups.

He casually conjured a new lot-drawing tube and provided it to the Death Fighters for drawing lots.

As the saying goes, first time awkward, second time familiar; the Death Fighters all knew what to do, and the entire process was remarkably smooth.

Li Mu, who originally thought he could rest, had to once again act as the host, picking up the loudspeaker to call numbers.

Fierce fight broke out again.

Worth mentioning was that after one round of paired fierce fight, almost all the remaining Death Fighters had cultivation.

So compared to the previous round, although the battle process visibly became much more intense, each battle took even more time.

Fortunately, boring as it was, Lu Bai himself wasn’t in a hurry.

While zoning out, he didn’t forget to seize the moment to collect the points from the losing side.

When the sky emerged with fish-belly white, the match for the twenty-fifth group finally ended.

The moment Lu Bai activated Magic Power to mark again, a series of Deathmatch System prompt sounds immediately rang out.

【Ding!】

【Points +2, Current Points: 246, Current Rank 1/50】

……

【Ding!】

【Detected that current Death Fighter elimination rate has reached three-quarters.】

【Current Deathmatch Arena Target Mission has opened; this target is two-way, Death Fighters may choose freely.】

【One: Successfully open Ascension Channel】

【Two: Completely sever Path to Immortality】

【Complete either target, Deathmatch Arena will close immediately, and ranking settlement will be conducted based on Death Fighters’ current points.】

……

【Ding!】

【Current Death Fighter elimination rate has reached three-quarters.】

【Attention! Third Round Ability Pool has opened, selection available.】

After receiving these system prompt sounds, the fierce fight between Death Fighters came to a stop.

The surviving Death Fighters immediately checked their Ability Pool for this round, but these Death Fighters clearly weren’t too expectant.

After all, no matter what level the Ability Pool was, encountering a monster like Lu Bai who could make abilities invalid really made it hard for these Death Fighters to muster interest.

Lu Bai glanced roughly and saw that his Ability Pool for this round was only Gold level, so he was too lazy to look closely; he simply picked one at random—anyway, it was just adding a brick to the Discard Pile.

The other Death Fighters’ Ability Pools this round were only Silver Level; fortunately, these guys weren’t very expectant to begin with, so there was no disappointment.

After obtaining Lu Bai’s permission, the remaining Death Fighters all sat down on the spot to rest.

Incidentally, there were actually two groups of Death Fighters who hadn’t battled; in a sense, these four lucky ones had a bye and were nervously awaiting Lu Bai’s “judgment”.

Lu Bai didn’t specially indicate anything, tacitly allowing these four Death Fighters to not continue fierce fighting.

Mainly holding over 200 points, Lu Bai actually didn’t care much about the life or death of these four Death Fighters; four more or four less points made little difference to him.

What truly concerned him was this Target Mission instead.

From the mission description, it seemed quite difficult.

The key was that whether opening the Ascension Channel or completely blocking these Cultivators’ possibility of Ascension, both were major events that would influence the entire Cultivation World.

How could the change of the world be something a mere individual could achieve?

This kind of Target Mission was somewhat at a loss for where to start, even in Lu Bai’s view.

Lu Bai frowned slightly and pondered for a moment; he suddenly realized a feasible direction.

That was the Flower of Immortality attached to his Primordial Spirit, which was this world’s “node”.

Don’t forget, the “node” of every Deathmatch Arena was an important factor capable of changing the world; to complete the Target Mission, one indeed had to start from the “node”.
