Hunter x Hunter: Card Master, the Strongest in the World.

Chapter 116 Sky Arena Trait Bar! Leorio's Mission!

Before parting, Gail gave him a gift: three kinds of unique poisons that she had developed.

One is a chronic poison, and the other is an acute poison; both can be cured with conventional treatments.

There is no solution for the last type of poison. This poison is very similar to Gu poison. If the user does not receive the antidote after a period of time, he will feel the pain of being devoured by thousands of Gu, and he will be in unbearable agony.

Lynn accepted it without hesitation; you never know when you might need this kind of thing.

Surprisingly, Bisge also decided to go with him after hearing that he was going to the Sky Arena.

According to Bisge, it seems that her disciple took on a new disciple. The two of them had just arrived at the Sky Arena, so she wanted to go and see them. Presumably, it was Yun Gu and Zhi Xi.

They quickly arrived in the city where the Sky Arena was located by airship.

It was August, the hottest month of the year.

At noon, the blazing sun hung high in the sky, casting large shadows on the towering Sky Arena.

The Sky Arena has 251 floors and a height of 991 meters, making it the fourth tallest building in the world.

Standing in front of the Sky Arena's gates, Lynn looked up and couldn't help but marvel at the building's height.

The Sky Arena has a unique appearance; it is a tower-shaped building, but it is not straight. Basically, each floor has a platform-like space protruding, making it look crooked and twisted.

That was clearly the location of the arena used for the challenge.

"Wow! So many people!" Chopper exclaimed in amazement as he looked at the spectacular scene of a sea of ​​people nearby.

It had been a while since it had seen such a large gathering at once.

This is just the norm in Sky Arena.

Because the games are available for viewing and betting, they attract many tourists, with viewers reportedly exceeding one billion annually from around the world.

Because the rewards for the Sky Arena challenges are extremely attractive, many people come to compete, and every day more than four thousand challengers line up at the registration desk to register.

So even if he and Leorio just wanted to register, they had to wait in line.

Needless to say, his main goal was to collect cards.

As for Leorio's participation, that was a task he assigned.

After more than two months of careful training, coupled with Leorio's unremitting efforts, his growth rate was astonishing.

His physical condition and other aspects have improved significantly, and he has now met the requirements for opening his mind.

But that's not enough. Leorio lacks practical experience, and the Sky Arena is exactly the right place for him.

If Leorio can reach the 200th floor on his own, he will help Leorio awaken his Nen, thus truly embarking on the […].

The road of [thought].

Bisgei, on the other hand, wasn't interested in the match. She was way past the age of coming to places like this. Seriously, even the owner of the top floor might not be able to beat her. So she simply used her "Monkey Scooping the Moon" move to lure Chopper away and went inside to be a spectator.

Only he and Leorio signed up for the competition, and a long line began to form.

Most of the people queuing here don't look like troublemakers; they're all muscular, but they can't read, so their actual strength is just so-so.

While waiting in line, he was also curious about what kind of cards would be produced here. As expected, when he arrived, a new attribute bar appeared in his mind.

The Sky Arena, known as the "Holy Land of Barbarians" and the "Mecca of Fighters," is the best place for those who seek combat.

Perhaps cards related to fighting, physical skills, and training will be produced here?

In an instant, a variety of possibilities flashed through Lynn's mind.

Character cards: For example, the Hanma family from Baki, Might Guy and Rock Lee from Naruto, and CP9 from One Piece —

Ability Card: Perhaps a Fighting-type move from Pokémon, or the Water Stream Rock Smash from One-Punch Man, or a martial art from Under One Person—

..

Item cards: If we could get a forced forging device to assist in forging, a canned food workshop, or a time-space spirit house, that would be awesome.

After a moment of lost in thought, it was finally his turn in line.

Lynn went straight up, filled in his information, and signed the most important waiver of his life.

Fighting in the Sky Arena requires filling out a waiver; if you die on stage, the authorities are not responsible.

In a sense, Sky Arena is just a whitewashed underground fighting ring.

It's just that it's given the name "Holy Land of Martial Artists," which makes it seem much more prestigious. In reality, most people who come here are there in pursuit of fame and fortune.

Only a very small number of people come with the intention of improving their abilities and constantly challenging stronger opponents; those who truly possess the spirit of martial arts are extremely rare.

After successfully filling out the registration form and waiver, he and Leorio were taken to the waiting room and given their respective number plates.

He is number 666, and Leorio is number 667.

With a large number of challengers every day, it's impossible to keep the number going forever in the Sky Arena.

Therefore, the numbers here are refreshed daily and distributed according to the order of registration that day.

Upon entering the waiting room, Lynn casually glanced at the other contestants and, unsurprisingly, there wasn't a single Nen user among them.

Although he had met many Nen users before, and even participated in the "Food Competition" which was almost entirely composed of Nen users.

However, it is undeniable that compared to the number of ordinary people, Nen users are still a minority group, and they are not cheap goods that can be seen everywhere on the street.

While waiting, Lynn also glanced at Leorio out of the corner of his eye. His breathing was stable, so he hadn't lost face.

He was a little impatient because it was his first time participating in this type of fighting competition.

Leorio is very straightforward and doesn't like to hide his emotions. He writes his thoughts directly on his face, so you don't even need to look at his hands that are unconsciously clenched into fists.

"Are you nervous?" Lynn asked calmly.

"A little," Leorio said very honestly, taking a deep breath to calm himself down. His master was watching him, and he couldn't afford to make a bad impression.

"Relax, just perform normally." Lynn glanced at the other people in the waiting room, and thought of the contestants he had seen outside earlier. It was no exaggeration to say that with Leorio's current strength, 90% of the contestants were no match for him.

As for fighting skills, he and Chopper had taught Leorio a little over the past two months, so he wasn't a complete novice.

The only thing affecting him was his mindset. He had never fought anyone in real combat before, and he might be caught off guard and defeated by his opponent. This was exactly what he wanted Leo to learn.

Not long after, Lynn's number came through the loudspeaker in the waiting room, informing him that he could go on stage.

Upon reaching the ring, Lynn saw his opponent.

The other person was a burly man wearing a thin vest with explosive muscles and exaggerated trapezius muscles. At first glance, he looked like a skinny man huddled in a leather suit, which looked very incongruous.

"What great luck! Kid, today I'll use you as the first stepping stone for my grandpa Garp to reach the pinnacle of martial arts!"

"Just consider this an honor!"

With his hands on his hips, Karp saw that Lynn had no characteristics of a strong person and made a wild statement.

Especially since there were some rioting spectators in the nearby stands, Garp knocked out his opponent with one punch.

The difference in size alone is enough to tell who is stronger and who is weaker, so how could there be any suspense in this battle?

For these laymen, without mastering "mindset", they can only analyze who is stronger based on appearance.

In their view, Garp, with his exaggerated physique, naturally looked stronger.

Upon seeing this, Garp's mind involuntarily began playing the victory CG.

Defeating this pretty boy in front of him is the first step for him to become the champion of the Sky Arena and a world-renowned fighter!

Lynn remained expressionless.

Seeing that Lynn still didn't take him seriously, Karp immediately decided to teach the young man a lesson.

With the referee's whistle, the match officially began.

Karp stomped the ground and charged forward, his fist, the size of a sandbag, growing larger and larger in front of Lynn.

The next moment, Lynn simply threw a punch.

Garp was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing into the wall with a deafening roar, his body becoming deeply embedded in it.

The field was completely silent.

Ordinary people wouldn't be able to react in time and wouldn't understand why Lynn was able to send that burly man flying with a single punch.

The referee was taken aback for a moment, then realized another monster had appeared, and quickly announced, "Number 666 wins!"

"Number 666, the next battle will take place on the 50th floor!"

He only played one game and immediately advanced to level 50!

The Sky Arena has a total of 251 floors, with each stage consisting of ten floors.

All participants must test their skills on the first level, so the first level consists of one competition arena after another.

The judges will decide which floor each participant should be assigned to based on their performance in the competition within three minutes.

The highest level is being directly assigned to level 50!

To receive this preferential treatment, one must demonstrate overwhelming combat power in the first battle, essentially ending the match with a single, decisive blow.

After receiving the information he wanted, Lynn left the ring immediately.

Only a group of viewers remained, engaging in a more heated discussion.

Having watched many battles in the Sky Arena, they naturally understood what jumping directly to the 50th floor meant!

Such challengers often have a chance to reach the 200th floor and become one of the most popular contenders in the Sky Arena!

Meanwhile, in the Sky Arena lobby.

A handsome man wearing glasses, a white shirt, and a middle-part hairstyle was watching the game with a boy with a buzz cut.

The screen is showing footage of Lynn punching Garp and sending him flying.

"Master, why is he so strong?" Zhi Xi, a child who had not yet begun chanting, asked in surprise upon seeing this scene.

Yun Gu stared intently at the screen, his eyes narrowing, and said solemnly, "Zhi Xi, remember this: next time you encounter that person in the picture, be careful and avoid him."

"Yes!" Although Zhixi was confused, she knew that as long as her master said it, she should obey.

Yun Gu hasn't told Zhi Xi about Nen yet, so he only emphasized avoiding Lynn. If he's not mistaken, Lynn is not only a Nen user, but also possesses great strength.

Perhaps—even he couldn't beat that player number 666!
