My Ability Is Role-playing

Chapter 722: Chapter 716: Make Ma Ran Fall!

In the Strongman Paradise, participants reacted in various ways.

Some came just for fun, shouting slogans loudly before the event started.

In practice, the vast majority couldn’t last even a "year."

As for those sand sculptures who didn’t last three days, they left with their heads hanging low despite arriving full of ambition.

Most people overestimated their willpower and resilience.

In reality, about one-tenth of the people, within half a day of entering the Paradise, started missing their parents, spouses, children, and friends.

Most only lasted one or two days before leaving the Strongman Paradise one after another.

What?

The time-limited event that couldn’t be missed?

How could that compare to family, love, and friendship?

This is the main melody!

No matter what, lofty reasons can be easily found by the thousands.

Moreover, fighting for the peace of Earth Civilization is too dangerous and too tiring for most people.

It’s better to leave it to others.

For example...

Ma Ran.

As the saying goes, "if the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up," Ma Ran is the tallest person on Earth.

Besides, he wasn’t fighting alone!

After all, he had the help of the likes of [Martial God] Su Qiangwei, [Haotian] Zhang Qianren, [God] Gray, as well as Zhu Hanyi and Wan Haihao, and excellent comrades like [Cangming Crown Prince] Wu Di.

Thinking this way, Ma Ran didn’t seem so lonely and forlorn.

He had like-minded comrades, partners he could trust.

Such psychological activities allowed those who had withdrawn early to reach a reconciliation with themselves.

Thirty days passed in a flash within the Paradise.

While on Earth, only twelve minutes had passed.

At this point, most participants chose to exit.

Only a very few remained in the Paradise.

These people either had strong faith, a strong desire to become stronger, or clear and precise goals, knowing exactly what they wanted.

No matter what...

The so-called [National Cultivation Competition] event finally showed its true nature to the world.

Everyone gradually realized a truth — those who train efficiently and progress quickly might not necessarily become one of the hundred final winners.

Only those who persist to the end might become the victors!

Situated in the dual time flow, Ma Ran patiently savored the flow of the Power of Time, deeply comprehending its mysteries.

Time passes unnoticed during cultivation.

When Su Qiangwei suddenly opened her eyes, Ma Ran also realized that the time resources he plundered from Mo Xing were already more than half used.

"’Burning Martial’ Eleventh Rank! Inner Qi Spirit Armor, manifest!"

With a crisp shout, smoke and clouds swirled around the girl, and spiritual energy filled the air.

When the smoke dissipated, her attire was completely transformed.

A dark blue high-collared coat, with a white base and Qinglian underlay, Hexagram Cloud Battle Boots, her shoulder-length black hair fluttering in the wind.

This was the manifestation of fully integrated defense power after a certain realm was reached in ’Burning Martial’ cultivation, humorously referred to by Earthlings as the [Protecting Dao Skill] stage.

Ma Ran broke free from the state of time line disorder and overlapping time, his eyes reflecting a shimmering silver light.

His gaze focused on Su Qiangwei, eyes clear, with a slight smile: "Congratulations, for advancing further."

Su Qiangwei raised an eyebrow lightly: "Still a long way to go, this is just the beginning!"

The same [Transformation], Ma Ran had an extra Tang Blade compared to her.

Always felt overshadowed when it came to style...

After speaking, the girl’s thoughts turned, her divine soul sweeping across the entire Strongman Paradise, she noticed that the number of participants had reduced by more than ninety percent compared to the start, and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief for Ma Ran.

Unlike others, she knew that Ma Ran’s "savings" were limited, and if he continued to squander as before, it wouldn’t be long before he embarrassed himself in front of all humanity.

This face-loving guy, if he really encountered such a situation, one couldn’t imagine how upset he’d be.

With Ma Xiansheng’s temperament, he wouldn’t likely become depressed, but...

It’s best if such a situation never arises.

Spare Master Qiangwei from having to comfort him.

"Then continue,"

after Ma Ran spoke, he closed his eyes: "Moreover..."

"Be safe."

"Injuries will affect cultivation efficiency."

Su Qiangwei looked up at the golden rankings in the sky, hooked the corners of her lips, and lightly hummed: "Rest assured, I am measured."

"But you..."

"If you don’t work hard, I’ll soon catch up with you!"

In the sky’s rankings, there were a hundred names listed of the top participants in the event.

Though Ma Ran and Su Qiangwei weren’t among them, the girl could also gauge her "score situation" based on the rules.

So far...

She was in a lead!

In addition, the superpower Su Qiangwei acquired through [Myriad Transformations] and its combination with the ’Red Lotus Skill’ could create avatars like Q-version little figures, possessing part of the combat power of the original.

This means that while she was cultivating herself, she could also send out avatars to kill the projections that Ma Ran used the [Prophet] medal to tear away from the gods of the Divine Court, thus earning experience points.

After a brief exchange, the two each began a new round of cultivation.

The time resources had already been half consumed, which indeed posed a concern.

However, he had already developed emergency plans and wasn’t worried about it.

What should truly be worried about were those [Supreme Rulers] overlooking the cosmos within the [Divine Court].

Because...

At this moment, those participating in the National Cultivation Competition event had two ways to become stronger.

First, through self-cultivation.

Second, by killing divine projections.

The former is safer, while the latter is faster but riskier.

Killing divine projections can gain experience points, and so far, no one has died due to this thanks to the monitoring and assistance of super data life.

People may not know their limitations, but data life does not make such mistakes.

Injuries require healing; after all, this isn’t really a game.

Usually, those who rank high on the leaderboard are the fierce ones using both methods.

These people wish they could split time in half, dashing forward relentlessly and vigorously.

...

Within the communication channel of the Divine Court Masters.

Mo Xing said calmly: "You all should have noticed, the divine projections in the Strongman Paradise are, in essence, sucking the blood of the Divine Court."

Qing Dai said urgently, "We can’t wait any longer. We must act immediately, directly obliterate Earth and Cangming, these two Demon Nests."

Hearing this, Golden Domain sighed and said seriously, "Even if we can’t achieve complete success in one stroke, at least Ma Ran, who seems to be a [True Demon], should be felled on the spot!"

"This villain has become a formidable force and is a major threat to the Divine Court, absolutely cannot be left unchecked anymore!"
