Second World Chapter 1824 The First Champion

Chapter 1824 1824. The First Champion

"Did you have to go and yell the skill's name before you attacked?" Peniel complained after the battle was over.
"It was cool, wasn't it?" Jack laughed.
"Cool your head! It was childish," Peniel said.
"There is only you and me. It's okay to be a bit childish," Jack returned.
Jack heard another notification while they were arguing, "Congratulations on being the first outworlder to complete the League of Champions' challenges. Receives 30,000 glory points and the title, First Champion."
"Thirty thousand glory points! That's generous!" Jack exclaimed.
He remembered he got 10,000 glory points when he became Praefectrus. He couldn't upgrade to the next rank after that, Laticlavian. The equivalent rank in the Order of Magi, Minister, gave him 20,000 knowledge points, so he figured it should be the same as Laticlavian. Following the pattern, becoming the highest rank, Legatus, should net him 30,000 glory points. Even though he couldn't become one, being the first player to beat Stage 100 seemed to award the same number of glory points.
He checked the gained title.
*
First Champion (Title)
No need to spend challenge points to take League of Champion's challenges.
Increase the limit of challenging the same stages in a day by 5 times.
Double the received glory points.

"Great!" Jack said. He was running thin on challenge points. He had regretted not buying more challenge points when he ran into Gruff earlier. Now, he was glad he forgot to do that. He would have wasted his coins if he did since he no longer needed any challenge points with this title.
The best feature for him was the doubling of received glory points. Added with the double effect from Praefectrus rank, he could get four times glory points from each stage if he equipped this title.
He immediately equipped the title. He could challenge Stage 100 another nine times due to his Praefectrus rank and an extra five times with this title. With the double glory points, he should get one of the items he targeted from the exchange list.
It took him almost half an hour to beat the eternal-grade opponent in Stage 100, but that was because he was gauging the opponent's ability at the beginning of the battle. Now that he had experienced the opponent's battle style, he believed he could defeat it faster.
Without further ado, he re-entered Stage 100, unaware of the multiple wide eyes watching from afar.
"Who do you think that player is?" One of the watching players asked the one next to him.
"I don't know. How about you go and ask?" That player replied.
"All right. When he comes out, I will go and ask. Maybe we can become friends."
"I don't think so," Another player said. "I have an idea who that player is."
"Really? Who?" Asked the first player. His voice sounded skeptical. He assumed this one was only trying to sound smart by making a random guess.
"Have you not heard about the only player who had beaten the stages above 90 not long ago? I haven't heard of a second player who has achieved that feat. This one should be him. Who else can he be?"
"He…? But he didn't wear the king outfit."
"Then the logical reason should be because he has gotten better equipment. That golden shining armor does look the part."
The watching players were silent after hearing the deduction.
"Still thinking of going over and making friends?" The smart player asked the first player. "I did hear the rumor of him beating the shit out of the players who came to him for conversation. He considered them wasting his precious seconds when he was in a hurry."
"Really? I've never heard about that."
"Like I said. It was just a rumor. So, are you going to go talk to him? If you do, and you are fine, then I will approach him as well."
"Uh… I would like to, but I just remembered I have something to do. I will leave first."
That player scurried out of the room. The remaining players looked at each other before disbanding.

Unaware of the commotion his presence had caused outside, Jack reappeared inside stage 100. Jack didn't waste time. Once the primordial lycan showed itself, Jack activated all his buffs and rushed forward. This took the primordial lycan by surprise and let Jack land a series of advantageous combos.
The battle didn't last as long as the previous one. It took Jack around twenty minutes to finish the battle. Afterward, he reentered again, and this time, it lasted fifteen minutes. The subsequent tries ranged from around fifteen to twenty minutes. By the time he exhausted his fifteen-challenge limit for stage 100, around six hours had passed. He could repeat stage 99 but if he did, he wouldn't have the time for the Order of Magi. So, he called it quits.
He amassed 6,770 glory points from all those challenges. Combined with the 812 glory points originally in his badge and the 30,000 glory points for the reward of being the first player to clear stage 100, he had 37,582 glory points.
He went to the exchange counter and opened the Praefectrus rank's exchange list. He had already spotted the item the last time, but it was too expensive. The item he was looking at was an Armor Orb. All different kinds of armor orbs were on the list, but they were only super rare grades. Each of them cost 20,000 glory points. They were the most expensive items on the Praefectrus' list.
"Do you think I can get a higher-grade armor orb or weapon orb if I climb to the Laticlavian rank?" Jack asked Peniel.
"It's not a possibility anymore, so why ask? Anyway, I don't think you will find them. Unique and Legendary-grade are very rare. The most likely faction you can get unique grades is if you are a high-ranking member of the Blacksmith Circle. As for the legendary grades, you can only find them on the field or from special quests."
"Okay, let's get one here and then more from the Order of Magi," Jack said. Similar to here, armor orbs were also exchanged in the Order of Magi.
