Chapter 1513: Arish’s Surprise(6)
Arish walked to the weapons room after completing the purchase of the skill cards. He couldn’t help but look in awe at the different murals painted across the wall.
He was a spear user, utilizing his tall height and stability. He immediately focused on the murals related to spear concepts. Arish could feel the extraordinariness of the paintings, but he couldn’t put his hands on what made them special.
Arish walked to the pillar while seeing the murals. He already had a weapon, so he didn’t look at the weapon counter. He completed the entry process as told by the store owner, and following that, he found himself in an endless blue space.
Arish had chosen the Immortal level of difficulty for the training area. There was a one-hour, one-day limit on that difficulty, so Arish decided to test it first before choosing to go to the higher-level difficulty.
Since Arish was going to fight Igrians in the contest three hundred years later, he chose them as his opponent, while for the battle environment, he chose a battle arena with strong wind and rich water vapor.
Beruniots were creatures that focused on the element of water while Igrians concentrated on the element of wind, so the battle location was set such that both sides wouldn’t have any advantage or disadvantage.
Immediately after his selection was complete, a white light enveloped Arish. The next moment, Arish found himself standing in the battle arena, with a strong wind and an abundance of water elements in the area due to a large water body near the arena.
Ahead of him, an Igrian also appeared, holding the same spear as his.
Ding!
The bell rang, announcing the start of the battle. Both opponents made their movements at the same time, pouncing on each other.
Clang!
Both sides faced together, and as their weapons clashed, a loud sound rang in the area.
The Igrian seemed to be the better fighter and stronger, so he pushed Arish backward. The battle went on for a few seconds, and finally, the victor was revealed.
Arish was no match for his opponent, and he died as a result. After that, Arish appeared in the selection area, with the screen reappearing in front of him.
Arish didn’t immediately choose his options but took repeated deep breaths to calm down his pounding heart. It was his first time dying, and there was no calming effect like the Gods & Demons or Primordial level difficulty, so Arish couldn’t calm down.
Fortunately, the system didn’t let the customer handle all that stress, so he soon calmed down. Remembering the battle, Arish felt a chill crawling down his spine since he was no match for the opponent. If not for his heavyweight, the fight would have ended even quicker.
But at the same time, Arish could also sense some mistakes in his battle technique, so things weren’t only negative. He then took a deep breath and selected the same opponent and battle environment as the last time. To be precise, he fixed it for the entire duration of two hours of training.
Time flew by, and several minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
For the Immortal level difficulty, the concept difference between the two sides wasn’t deeply vast, so after forty-three minutes of battle and dying several times, Arish finally saw some hope in winning against the opponent.
Seeing some hope and actually winning were two completely different things, so Arish still kept dying. The two hours of training duration passed in the blink of an eye, and the system forced Arish out of the training area.
The golden barrier covering his body disappeared while colors returned to his eyes. Arish immediately took a deep breath as he tried to remember what he had learned in the training area.
The next moment, a frown spread across his face since he found the concept to be vague. But he then calmed down since the more he battled, the more transparent the idea would become. There were even small chances of him having some improvement in that before the contest three hundred years later.

“Father, what are you doing here?” Arish looked in surprise after finding his father outside his residence.
Arish had bought the Ultimate Store Card after gritting his teeth due to its teleportation ability. It allowed him to return to his work and store every day, so despite it being worth a large chunk of his wealth, he bought it.
After the training, there was nothing left in the store for Arish, so he activated the card and teleported back to his residence, only to find his father standing at the gate.
Arish lived in the residence provided by the army, so only he had the key to enter and exit. No second person could enter without his presence, so the father had to wait outside.
Arish didn’t let his father wait any longer and immediately unlocked the door. He then asked for his father to enter.
The father had a hesitant expression on his face as he pulled something out of his space ring.
Arish couldn’t help but be surprised when he saw the item in his father’s hands. It was one ultimate Sacred stone.
“This is all I could do to help you prepare for the battle contest,” The father had a helpless expression on his face as he put the stone on the table. If his status were higher in the race, no one would have dared to force someone like Arish to participate in a contest where dying had higher chances than survival.
Arish couldn’t help but feel warm in his heart. He didn’t reject the stone but kept it. He required money more than anything else after entering the store.
The father breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Arish accept the stone. A wide smile spread across his face, and he asked his son about the preparation for the contest.
Arish’s father was worse than a mediocre cultivator, so he simply listened to his son without interrupting.
