152 A Powerful Fighter on the Dragon Rank?

"This humble person is CantFoolAround."

The person had a black face and big eyes. When he revealed his name in a smug manner, he also smoothed out his black rags, which were basically just a few strips of cloth, in a very narcissistic manner. Happy frowned and felt that the man was a little strange. If he had been certain that there were no other ambushers in the area, he might have actually attacked.

Happy did not say anything, and his silence was met with slight shock from CantFoolAround.

He sized Happy up with a look of curiosity, and when he found out that Happy was truly indifferent to his name, a slight blush appeared on his dark face.

"Are you serious? You've never heard my name before?"

"I heard it now." Happy frowned. He had no recollection at that moment about World of Martial Arts Secret News Log.

And in his memories, there was no one with such a name either. When he saw the man tug at the shredded pieces of cloth that were like a skirt, he immediately felt speechless, and his temple throbbed. 'Where did this barbarian come from? That getup is really a little… unusual.'

"Oh well, if you never heard of me before, forget it."

The man with the black face swung his hand, and the awkward look on his face vanished. He once again focused on Happy, who remained seated firmly on the back of his horse and who was still very wary of him. "What's your name?"

Happy did not say anything. He remained silent.

'What's going on? I thought that he came for me? I was sure he was from Class One Hall or a helper from the other three great sects. But if he truly belonged to any of these factions, why would he talk so much? And he even did something as unnecessary as telling me his name.'

When Happy remembered that this person had a high-tier lightness skill, he could only squash down the displeasure in his heart and tell the man his name.

"Happy?" The man with the black face nodded, and, with a serious look on his face, he said he would remember it. "Your name is pretty easy to say. By the way, your moves just now were really powerful. Where did you come from?"

When CantFoolAround abruptly changed the topic, Happy became the one who was unable to react to the situation. He scrutinized the man's expression, only to find that the man truly did not lie.

However, Happy could not help but frown and ask for confirmation in a puzzled manner. "You haven't heard of my name before either?"

While he was on his way here from Punishment Mount, he had logged off once. The Three Lonely Wolves had learned of him fighting against Class One Hall on Punishment Mount from the net, and they nearly bombarded him to death with endless questions. It was also at that moment that he learned that the matter in Shaolin Temple and Punishment Mount had pushed him to the center of the storm, which reminded him of how he had frequently searched for famous players to fight in his previous life.

For some reason, when he said those words, CantFoolAround's eyebrows twitched, and his reaction was even more exaggerated than Happy's! He jumped back a dozen feet in shock, and with surprise and bewilderment, he repeatedly sized Happy up.

"You! You're also on the Dragon Rank?" he blurted out in the end, but he did not sound too certain.

'Dragon Rank?!'

When Happy heard those words, he finally saw the light.

'I see… so World of Martial Arts Secret News Log is finally out, huh? If that's the case…'

"Oh no!"

Happy's expression changed, and he sucked in a deep breath in astonishment.  Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting.

World of Martial Arts Secret News Log had some bad points during the early stages, since it had just been a prototype. Hence, he had never paid any real attention to the Dragon Rank and Phoenix Rank in the early stages. Only when the level of his martial arts slowly increased did he begin to challenge the powerful players on Dragon Rank. That was why he did not have a great understanding of the members who were on the Dragon Rank during the early stages of the game.

However, he could still remember the millionaires who had their wealth exposed on the Rich Rank. Because of it, events like multiple sects gathering together to kill the rich had happened, and the memory of it was still fresh in his mind.

He looked up.

CantFoolAround had brought out a small book from somewhere, and once he wet his fingertips with saliva, he began to flip through the pages swiftly while going up and down them. He seemed to be searching for something seriously.

"That's not right. Your name isn't there."

"What's that in your hands?" Happy asked loudly while pretending not to know what it was.

"It's the World of Martial Arts Secret News Log. Are you saying you actually don't know what it is? What the heck? Well, I say, no wonder…" CantFoolAround looked up with a dumbfounded expression. He released a breath of relief. "If that's the case, you aren't on the Dragon Rank."

Happy nodded. "Could you lend me the book in your hands?"

When he heard this, CantFoolAround became even more at ease. While beaming at him, he generously threw the book to Happy.

In truth, based on CantFoolAround's original plan, as long as he appeared and stopped this person, then with his refreshing Beggar's Sect attire that was not bound by conventions and his domineering air from the Dragon Rank board, he should have been able to easily subdue the person. Then, he could take him in as his lackey and head to Wudang Sect on his mount while "he was at it" so that he could challenge Strict Mountain, who was a Wudang Sects member in front of him.

The book was fifty taels of silver while the handsome steed under Happy was something that was not available in the market as of then, even if people would pay loads for it. It was at least one hundred thousand taels of silver, so the trade was worth it.

However, what he did not know was that Happy already had other thoughts in his mind.

When he received World of Martial Arts Secret News Log, he flipped to the second last page and skimmed through it. Just as he expected, he found his name on the Rich Rank, and he could not help his expression which went sour.

He was ranked thirty-sixth on the list…

He had one million taels of silver crumbs, which were the rewards from selling the Great Wolf Fur Equipment Sets. Along with the rewards he gained from killing multiple players over the past few days, he had a total of around one million three hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs, and he did indeed have a little too much money.

His situation had been slightly better on Punishment Mount, because there was the Iron Chain Bridge separating him from everyone, and it was very difficult for even birds to traverse the area. But he had already descended from the mountain, so there would definitely be a lot of people who would come after him. He could not stay in one place for long!

"Thank you."

When he found out about his new circumstances, Happy could not be bothered with learning why the person before him had blocked his path. He tossed the book to CantFoolAround, returning it to him. At the same time, he tugged the reins and prepared to leave.

"Huh?" CantFoolAround was instantly stunned.

He thought that Happy would respect him once he saw his rank on the Dragon Rank, but he just flipped through the book before striking his horse to leave. CantFoolAround was instantly alarmed.

"Wait!"

Both of them had their own thoughts, and their reactions were a little eccentric.

Happy's reaction was very quick.

Since the person blocked his path, it was only natural that he had his own goals for doing so. If he did not target him specifically, then he had to have been waiting around for a prey, and Happy had been unlucky enough to run into him.

He controlled his steed again, and his expression became stern while he stared at CantFoolAround. "Do you have anything else?"

His tone instantly became emotionless and cold, and it was filled with an aura of supremacy.

CantFoolAround had always been an honest person. His idea of robbing someone had also been a spontaneous decision. Right then, when he heard the sudden change in tone and felt Happy's aura, he was taken aback.

CantFoolAround's aura weakened, and the words at the tip of his tongue changed. "Um, I was just thinking about… asking you to… lend me your horse?"

"You want to borrow my horse?"

Happy frowned.

What was going on? Why did he have to run into such a strange person?

When he was about to answer him, horse hooves suddenly rose from behind him, and they were accompanied by shouts.

Happy scowled and listened to them attentively.

Soon, the vague shouts became clearer!

"He's right in front!"

"Surround him, don't let him escape!"

Happy's expression turned cold, and his gaze as he stared at CantFoolAround instantly became freezing.

Clang!

The Hundred-battle Saber was drawn out of its scabbard. The dark blue saber halo that was close to the tenth realm exploded from the saber!

It was terrifying to behold!

"Ah!"

All color drained from CantFoolAround's face. "Don't attack me! If it's an inconvenience to you, then forget it!" he shouted out.

Then, without the image of a powerful fighter on the Dragon Rank, he disappeared into the forest. His cowardly actions left Happy speechless. 'How could such a person become one of the top-tier fighters in the later stages of the game?'
