Chapter 244: The undisputed number one (1/2)

Elyon coughed , clearly embarrassed by Rudra's comments , he then said ” Well , it's good to see the spirits of the top performers , now onto the next rounds , I hope you guys can perform well there”.

He continued ” The next stage of selections will last a long time , taking about 1 day for 3-4 events. In the coming two weeks , we will regularly hold events and selections , for today , the events Archers , Prison escape and One v One fighting has been selected. Please choose the events you wish to take part in and press select. Please note that you can only participate in 3 individual events and two team events for national selections total. Soo choose carefully ”.

Rudra chose one v one fighting , he had no interest in prison escape and archery. It would just add to the burden .

Because of the limited time , if one selected multiple events then they would be transported randomly from arena to arena , after rounds and rounds of selections to perform. One could be cliff fighting for one round , and be in a first blood match in another.

One could have just died inside prison escape event , or maybe even have just won the event , and immediately be transported to the second selection.

Rudra did not want such nonsense , he was initially planning on taking part in all 5 National events , however If any coincided , he would only choose the one he was going to go with finally.

Choosing the one v one duel , he pressed select.

He was immediately transported into a battle arena against a random opponent. The Beauty of the AI was that while inside the real world only a limited number of people could fight simultaneously , inside the virtual world any number of players could fight simultaneously without any issues.

Even if the entire 100,000 players chose to take part in the selections , only about 4-5 hours were needed to complete all matches .

This was because in 50,000 battlefields , 50,000 battles could take place simultaneously with the winner going up after every victory.

Rudra saw his first opponent who was terrified after seeing that his opponent was guild leader Shakuni, the number one player. Rudra sighed , the opponent had no spine , this was going to be easy.

Not saying a single word , Rudra charged in with Elven sword at hand , in the one second that the enemy blinked Rudra had covered about 20 meters of distance between them..... what incredible speed! The enemy was a tank hence he raised his shield in defense. However contrary to his expectations the sword never made contact. Instead a roundhouse kick landed squarely on his liver.

SPLAT!

The guy coughed as saliva came out of his mouth. He had lost his balance and battleposture.

BAM! , A sword pierced right through his neck , as he was defeated before he could even understand what was going on.

A System notification came : Round one cleared in 9 seconds .... Proceeding to round two. (12...11..10...)

Rudra sighed and said ” I hope round two atleast gives me a warm-up ”.

The moment Rudra said those words , the entire room looked helplessly at the man .... While they were troubled by his attitude , a sense of calm began to spread in their heart. If he was truly that strong , he was a blessing for the country.

Ethan looked on as he raised two thumbs up

....' Great going '! , He murmured

The rooms focus was glued on Rudra , who went onto round two now
