Chapter 2292 Equal Before Levi
Before the Dark Emperor, everyone was equal, and nobody could go past a single punch.
It did not matter how one was ranked on the Divine Leaderboard.
“Hah! Nobody here is worth my time and effort. You guys are just worthless pieces of junk!” Levi spat before turning around to leave.
It was apparent that the man was very disappointed.
He had expected better from the fighters.
I thought there’s nothing they can’t do? What a bunch of idiots. What a freaking waste of my time.
However, the world was in a frenzy.
It suddenly dawned on them that the person ranked first on the Divine Leaderboard was leaps and bounds ahead of the rest.
It would not be an understatement to say that the person who ranked first on the Divine Leaderboard was an entirely different existence than the rest.
Maybe the gap for fighters ranking second and third was smaller, but it was not a matter of significance.
One thing was for sure, though. The Dark Emperor was a formidable presence, and fundamentally different from the rest.
It was as if Levi was a God-like presence.
It was the first time that fighters on Divine Leaderboard ever felt so powerless against someone.
The ranking had served as a mere illusion that they were just a few steps behind Dark Emperor.
However, Levi’s triumph over the rest of the fighters was undoubtedly a wake-up call for them.
Judging by the way he managed to beat every single one of his opponents with just one punch respectively, it was clear as day that there was no point even attempting to go up against Levi.
Levi’s triumph had also made them all realize the credibility of the Divine Leaderboard ranking.
Dark Emperor had proven that he was well-deserving of his number-one rank.
The Divine Leaderboard, which was a result of a vote by various organizations, was not a ranking in favor of any parties and was the single most credible ranking among fighters.
After the battle, nobody would dare to challenge the ranking on the Divine Leaderboard anymore.
The ranking was enough to reflect one’s capabilities, and it would be unnecessary to prove oneself by challenging those who ranked above them.
It was proven to be a futile and unwise move.
The Divine Leaderboard was the single most credible proof of one’s capabilities.
One would be foolish to have doubts on the rankings.
“Do you guys think that Dark Emperor is on the same level as the guy who broke the Skyward Sword with only two fingers?”
Someone made a wild guess.
“No, that’s impossible. I think there’s still some gap between the two.”
“Yep. Dark Emperor is certainly no match for that man. But I do think that they’re somewhat on the same level.”
Dark Emperor’s triumph had sent shockwaves around the world.
In the end, the Divine Leaderboard remained unchanged.
Dark Emperor was still ranked number one.
“What? Did some people really question the authority of the Divine Leaderboard and challenge the fighter ranked number one?” Edmund sneered.
The Cardinal Hall was one of the organizations that voted for the rankings of the Divine Leaderboard.
After all, the amount of information The Cardinal Hall could gather on every fighter was enough to make a sound and unbiased judgment.
Hence, Edmund had never once doubted the credibility of the Divine Leaderboard.
“Sir, we have to admit that Dark Emperor has exceeded our expectations ten times and over!”
Edmund’s subordinates were amazed.
He merely frowned and nodded. “Yes, you’re right. The evaluation that we had done did not do him justice.”
“I heard that Dark Emperor has managed to level up following the quake in Adrune a few days ago. I guess he’s trying to gauge his newfound capabilities with this battle too.”
“Yes, nobody other than Lab of Gods would be able to let Dark Emperor fully demonstrate his capabilities. It’s quite normal for us to underestimate his abilities.”
The others engaged in heated discussions about the matter.
Edmund nodded his head in agreement. “Yes, that’s true.”
Meanwhile, among the Garrison clan in Oakland City.
“Sir, that’s impressive. How did the fight with Dark Emperor go?”
Tyrone was especially curious.
Donald shook his head in resignation. “No, I’m definitely no match for Dark Emperor.”
