Talented Martial Hero -
Chapter 1192 The Tussle Region
"What's so special about the Tussle Region? Why did no one sign up to go there?" When Darrenheard the guard order Finley, Barnes and his other friends to choose the Tussle Region test, he feltsomething was wrong. And so, he turned and asked Lindsay about the Tussle Region.
"You don't know anything about the Tussle Region?" She glanced scornfully at Darren.
"Obviously! If I had heard about it, I wouldn't be asking you, would 1?" From the information Darrenhad received, he only knew that it was called “the Tussle Region’. There was no other introduction.Lindsay glanced at Darren as she wondered, “Is this the right attitude to have when asking aquestion?’ Although irked, she quickly reminded herself that those people were Darren's friends. Asit was natural for Darren to be a little anxious, she didn't blame him for his attitude.
"The Tussle Region is also known as a killing region,” Lindsay began her explanation.
"What do you mean?”
"It is said that the law of the jungle is followed in the Tussle Region. Every living creature that entersthe area must fight with other living creatures to survive. This cycle of killing must be followedthroughout their lives. They won't be able to leave until they have reached a certain level.”
"In that case, all the new entrants would be easy targets.”
"Of course, not. There are other rules besides the law of the jungle. I have heard of some. If thepeople they meet are at the same level, they must fight to the death. But if they aren't at the samelevel, and the lower one happens to kill the person at a higher level in their battle, the lower one willget an extra reward. Anybody who is two levels higher than their match wouldn't be allowed to startthe battle.
For example, if you were at the upper-level of the Domain God Realm, you would not be able toattack people at the low-level of the Domain God Realm. There are many rules. Only those whohave entered the region would be familiar with all the rules in detail.” She told Darren all that sheknew.
"No wonder no one is willing to go there. After all, being in a killing spree for their whole life is ahard way to live. Not to mention that there are high chances of encountering someone stronger.The warriors who survive will be heavily dependent not only on their strength but also on theirluck.” Darren frowned as he remarked.
"What are you going to do?" Lindsay looked at Darren and continued, "Regardless of whether yourfriends will be chosen or not, it will be hard for them.”
"I don't know their decision. But, I would prefer it if they pass the test. That is why I want to take partin it too," Darren stated resolutely.
"You are going to compete in the test? What are you planning?" Lindsay asked in shock. She hadnever heard of anyone volunteering to enlist for the test in the Tussle Region. Darren's idea seemedutterly absurd!
"If what you said is true, then I would be among the strongest people in the Tussle Region.”Darren's words enlightened Lindsay. He was now at the low-level of the Domain God Realm, but hewas able to kill a warrior at the top-level of the Domain God Realm with his level-nine divineweapons.
Considering Darren's strength and the rules in the Tussle Region, he would never be in adisadvantageous position.
"Yes, you're right. Your real strength should be enough to let you run wild in the Tussle Region. Youwill also be able to protect your friends. But there is one problem. All of your friends will have topass the test for you to be able to watch over them in the Tussle Region. You can't help them ifsome of them fail, and they are separated. Even with your skills, it is impossible to be in two placesat the same time."
"Yes, I have considered that. But first, I have to think of a way to sign up. We'll think about the restafter." Darren nodded.
"That's easy. Just knock someone out and impersonate him. No one will notice that,” Lindsayimmediately suggested.
"You are smart. Follow me to the back of the crowd. I'll knock one man unconscious, and you willimmediately move him into your space. This process must be so quick that no one should notice it,"Darren instructed.
"Don’t worry. I can manage that," Lindsay replied.
Then Darren and Lindsay began to search for a target. A few moments later, Darren and Lindsayfound someone. As expected, Darren turned into that man without anyone noticing.
Then, Darren walked up to the registration area for the test of the Tussle Region.
"Are you sure that you want to go to the Tussle Region?" The guard, who was in charge of theregistrations, looked at Darren coldly.
"Sir, I have decided.”
"Well, if you don't want to live, I won't stop you. Go ahead.” The guard threw a plate at Darren."Thank you.” Darren put away his plate and went straight to the battle ring for the Tussle RegionWhen he arrived, he saw that only a handful of people stood around the battle ring for the TussleRegion. An inexplicable sense of sadness coursed through Darren when he spotted his friends."Why do we have to follow your decision regarding which sect to join?" Disobedience glimmered inhis eyes as Barnes asked the guard
"Are you saying that you don't want to go? That's fine. I can put you in prison instead," the guardsneered.
"You? " Irritated, Barnes readied himself to hit the guard with his stick, but Finley stopped him."Barnes, don't be a nuisance. Last time we got Scott into trouble.” Finley chided Barnes through hisspiritual sense.
"Humph!" Barnes turned his head, snorted, and put down his stick.
"Hey, buddy. Don't worry. The Tussle Region is nothing special. Just go,” Darren, who was standingbeside, said. He was afraid that the monkey would infuriate the guard. After all, they were nobody inthe Ancestral Land, and they weren't strong enough to fight back.
"Where did this idiot come from? Get lost!" Barnes was so angry that he gritted his teeth and cursedDarren.
Darren, with a helpless expression on his face, shut up.
"You guys, step forward,” an emissary from the Tussle Region, who stood in the battle ring,instructed in a calm voice.
Everyone turned to face the battle ring in unison, only to see a man dressed in animal skins. Hewore a pair of huge brassards on both arms, and his deep-set eyes were filled with intense killingintent. The man did not deliberately release this kind of aura, but rather it was naturally derivedfrom being in the middle of a killing zone for an extended period. So, it was difficult for him toconceal it.
"This man's strength is probably comparable to the guard in the black robe.” Darren estimated theman's strength silently.
As soon as the man finished speaking, Darren and the others were dragged forward by a powerfulforce.
"What a surprise! You're not bad,” the man remarked. The man's gaze swept over Finley and theothers as he assessed their abilities. It was almost as if he could see through them. However, hecompletely ignored Darren.
"You are about to enter the test. Remember that there is a high chance that you might die duringthe test. You have to go all out to survive,” the emissary advised.
"Cut the crap and just tell me about the test." Barnes, who had become extremely irritated andimpatient, roared.
The emissary from the Tussle Region glanced at Barnes indifferently, "If you were in the TussleRegion now, you would have died hundreds of times."
After saying that, the emissary waved and opened a spatial door on the battle ring.
"You can enter now. If you come out alive, you will have passed the test.
You'd better hurry up. If you exit in an hour, you will be rewarded when you enter the region withthree days’ protection. Work hard!" the emissary prompted them when he saw that the group didn'tmove forward.
"Let's go.” They had no choice but to walk toward the spatial door.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Darren, Finley, Barnes, Aaron, and the mysterious, mad old man entered the gate.
The moment they disappeared, a young man in white materialized in the crowd. His suddenappearance caused a commotion in the square.
"What? You're..." Lindsay was startled when she saw the young man. “Isn't that Darren?’ Lindsayfinished her sentence in her mind.
The young man in white looked exactly like Darren.
"It's him!"
"He is coming! He is coming!"
Many people in the square exclaimed softly.
