122: Tower of Babel, instant kill!

Whoosh~

Yellow sand filled the sky; this was a boundless desert world. A strong gust of wind blew, and under its force, countless grains of yellow sand flew wildly.

After hearing the 'match successful' sound in his ear, Li An's vision blurred for a moment. When he focused and looked again, he had already arrived in this world full of yellow sand.

However, at this moment, before Li An could examine his surroundings, a strong gust of wind suddenly surged from behind him. Without time to think, Li An instinctively leaped forward, immediately dodging the attack coming from behind.

"Hehe, your reaction isn't slow!"

Seeing that his sneak attack had failed, the person stood still and grinned menacingly at Li An.

At the same time.

Li An, who had leaped forward, landed steadily at this moment. He then slowly turned around to face his attacker.

"Kid..."

Bang!

The next second, just as the attacker was about to speak again, he saw a black shadow growing larger and larger in front of him. Before he could react, Li An's punch directly blew his head apart.

However, at the moment he punched the attacker's head apart, Li An, who had initially looked calm, showed a hint of surprise on his face.

So weak?

Li An never expected that the attacker would die instantly without even taking one punch from him.

"Ding! You have defeated 1492572497 opponents, ranking up to 1492572487."

"Hint: Do you wish to continue the challenge?"

While he was stunned, the notification from the Tower of Babel immediately sounded in Li An's ear.

Li An instantly snapped back to attention. He first glanced at the headless corpse lying before him, then unhesitatingly chose to continue the challenge.

"Ding! Challenge continues, matching begins!"

"Ding! Match successful!"

The next second, Li An noticed that the surrounding scenery began to change again. This time, he was on a giant arena, and another challenger appeared right in front of him.

"Let's fight."

Looking at the opponent's wary expression, Li An, who was already prepared, said indifferently.

"Kill!!!"

Seeing Li An's disdainful look, the person immediately stopped being polite. He directly rushed towards Li An with a battle saber in hand, the saber wind whistling as he aimed straight for Li An's neck.

However, facing this attack, Li An merely shook his head faintly, directly raising his hand and meeting it with a punch.

Bang!

In an instant, under the opponent's horrified gaze, Li An's single punch shattered the opponent's battle saber. His punch continued unabated, and the very next second after exploding the saber, it struck the opponent's head. A vibrant pillar of blood shot into the sky, and flesh and blood splattered everywhere.

"Ding! You have defeated 1492571542 opponents, ranking up to 1492570871."

"Continue the challenge!"

The moment he blew the opponent's head apart, Li An directly chose to continue the challenge.

At this point, he also discovered a problem: his strength was severely disproportionate to his current ranking. The enemies he encountered were all one-shot kills. In this case, he didn't need to waste any more time; fighting opponents whose strength was not equal to his could not stimulate his potential or help him adapt to his current power.

Therefore, he might as well quickly improve his ranking.

"Ding! You have defeated..."

"Ding! You have defeated..."

"Ding! You have defeated..."

...Subsequently, Li An began a frantic ranking challenge mode. His fighting style was extremely brutal, even to the point of being completely devoid of technique, but every duel was a one-sided, crushing battle.

His ranking also began to climb wildly with his continuous challenges. He started to achieve feats of ten consecutive victories, thirty consecutive victories, fifty consecutive victories, one hundred consecutive victories, and hundreds of consecutive victories!

And as his winning streak increased, his ranking experienced an explosive ascent, soaring from a ten-digit ranking into nine digits, then eight, seven, and six digits!

Li An began to create his own legend of consecutive victories, and his existence and fighting style spread through the mouths of the enemies he fought.

Gradually, some voices began to appear in the Trading Area.

"Have you heard? There's a newcomer frantically climbing the ranks."

"He's a man who only throws one punch. It's said he's already achieved a hundred-win streak!"

"A hundred-win streak? What kind of fierce person is that???"

"A monster! Has some monster been born?"

"Monster? He's not worthy. Those beings called monsters once achieved three hundred consecutive victories or even higher."

"It's said that a prominent figure in the Paradise once directly fought his way into the top ten thousand from an initial ranking!"

"How many? Top ten thousand?"

"Hiss..."

...At this moment, the Trading Area was in an uproar. Countless Contractors, upon receiving the news, either entered in person or online, flocking into the Trading Area.

For a time, a large amount of chatter rose, with everyone speaking their mind.

Finally, an elder who had experienced at least ten world progressions stepped in at this moment and said,

"A being with a three-hundred-win streak must be a prominent figure who has transcended the level sequence. The person you speak of is not yet capable!"

"Let alone the top ten thousand, he might not even make it into the top hundred thousand!"

"Just watch, once he enters the top ten thousand, you can check the Tower of Babel ranking through the Paradise. But as far as I know, the current top ten thousand individual is named Dick. This person has held a top ten thousand ranking for several world progressions and has not dropped out of the ranking to this day."

"Wait and see, after a hundred victories, his defeat won't be far off."

The elder chuckled. He had entered the Trading Area in person. After he finished speaking, he directly looked up at the Tower of Babel in the void above.

"Yes, a winning streak is already difficult, and a hundred victories is the limit. A person with an initial ranking must just be a newcomer. How strong can a newcomer be?"

"You must know that the challengers participating in the Tower of Babel are not just us Contractors, but also races and powerhouses from myriad worlds. Unless one is invincible among their peers, they will surely be stopped!"

"And even if they are invincible, there will come a time when their stamina runs out. Even the invincible will be stopped."

"Does he really think he can also transcend the level sequence and become a prominent figure of the Paradise?"

After that elder, a Contractor immediately chimed in and said.

Indeed!

How numerous were the Contractors within the Paradise? Moreover, it wasn't just the Contractors within the Paradise who participated in the Tower of Babel; this was an arena open to the entire universe, to countless races and powerhouses.

At the same time!

Just as many Contractors in the Trading Area thought, Li An did indeed encounter some resistance at this moment. After his ranking entered the top hundred thousand, the opponents he was matched with suddenly became more powerful.

Opponents that Li An could originally take care of with one punch now required two punches to kill.

However, even so, Li An's ranking ascent did not slow down much; instead, its upward momentum became even fiercer.

At this point, new opponents were constantly being matched, but in their encounters with Li An, they still couldn't last more than a few moves. His physique was too powerful; opponents couldn't even leave a trace on his body, and the characteristics of the Kryptonian Gene were also constantly taking effect.
