Chapter 2284 I Have Surpassed You
They couldn’t believe Levi was still so arrogant. He was only ranked eight thousand something on the Provisional Leaderboard, and that was because the moderators overestimated his power. In reality, he was only around rank ten thousand or so.
Does he think he can fight all of us at once with that kind of power? What a joke?”
Waves of energy rolled and crashed the surrounding place, engulfing everything in its way. Such was the power of Provisional Leaderboard and Divine Leaderboard fighters. Every time they fought, destruction would be left in their wake.
“See that, Levi? This is the true power of a Divine Leaderboard fighter!”
Everyone sneered, but Levi remained rooted to his spot. If nobody knew better, they would have thought Levi was shocked by the sheer amount of power they displayed.
Everyone thought Levi had finally known his place after seeing the new era’s true power, so he had given up on retaliating.
It was a magical feeling, at least for Levi’s old rivals. They felt like laughing, for they finally made Levi realize the gap between him and them. They finally could see him looking in awe at the strength of the new era.
Let’s see if you can keep putting that arrogant act up, you b*stard. You can’t, can you?
However, unbeknownst to them, they were less than maggots in Levi’s eyes. After all, he could kill the top fighter on the Divine Leaderboard, let alone one that was ranked nine hundred or so.
Just when Levi was about to counter their attack, someone shouted, “Who dares attack my master? Die!”
Floyd made his appearance and hurled a punch at the incoming wave of attack. Another energy wave came crashing down, sending the thirty fighters who attacked Levi flying backward.
Not a single one of them could take the hit, not even the ones on the Divine Leaderboard. In the end, they fell and spewed blood. However, more than that, they stared at Floyd in disbelief.
“It’s Floyd! Number forty-five on the Divine Leaderboard. He’s one of the top fighters in the world!”
…
Everyone recognized Floyd at the first glance, but that was also why they had a look of horror on their faces. Floyd’s strength terrified them, and he was the source of their nightmares.
Only one kind of people were truly terrifying in the new era, and they were the fighters ranked on the Divine Leaderboard. The higher their ranking was, the more terrifying the fighter was. Of course, that included Floyd.
“We’re sorry, Mr. Floyd! Have mercy on us, please!” everyone kneeled and started begging for mercy despite him almost killing them moments ago.
Floyd looked at them smugly. He enjoyed the feeling and status that his power brought him. If he so wanted to, he didn’t even have to attack them earlier. All he had to do was show up, and these fighters would have been begging for their lives instead.
Indeed, he didn’t have to even do anything at all.
After showing off his strength, the first thing Floyd did was look at Levi. He was like a child who wanted his parent to praise him after he got a hundred on a difficult test.
“What do you think, master?” Floyd smiled.
Levi nodded. “Not bad.”
“Master, this isn’t just ‘not bad.’ Divine Leaderboard and Provisional Leaderboard meant power and status. Their rankings were proven true up until now. All the fighters there earned their places, and it’s a global ranking too.
“I don’t even have to do anything now. If someone tries to stir any trouble, all I have to do is tell them my ranking, and they’ll start begging for mercy,” Floyd explained.
To put it in simpler terms, he was saying the whole world would bow to him the moment he showed his face.
“Yes, he’s right. All he has to do is show up, and we’ll be begging for mercy like what we’re doing now. We won’t even do anything else.”
“It’s our fault for troubling you, sir. We’ll make sure we pay up for our mistake. Just have mercy on us, please.”
Floyd really enjoyed the praises his power brought, and to make things better, he could show it off to his master.
After the new era’s arrival, he had always wanted to tell Levi that he had finally surpassed him. Now that he finally got the chance, of course, he was excited.
“I heard someone’s trying to attack my master. Now you die!”
Another group of fighters came on the scene as well.
“That’s Oren Yates! Number one hundred and twenty-seven on the Divine Leaderboard!”
“Look, that’s number one hundred and eighty-eight—Skye!”
“And that’s number two hundred and eighty-seven!”
“That’s six hundred and fifty-four!”
One after another of Levi’s disciples started coming to his aid.
