Chapter 110 - The Champion's Loyalty

Since Odin's debut, everyone had felt like they'd watched a cold but miraculous black horse come into being. Then, they'd watched the black horse grow like it had gained wings, starting from the free-for-all brawl and going all the way to win the district championship... and ascending the throne as the War God in the Earth District!

Many people felt that this would be it. The War God of the Earth District would be the same as Vantico, who had entered the National Championships by coming in second place in the provincial competition. The rankings after that would all be based on luck... as a result, ha-ha. Reality had used an unquestionable method to slap them all in the face repeatedly.

Someone had calculated it before; when Odin had first participated in the brawl, the betting company had offered odds with a ratio of 1:15, which was normal for a newcomer. When he had won first place in that fight, the odds had risen to twice as high as the previous time, but it hadn't seemed optimistic about his future in 1v1. Then, as Odin rose up, even his fans became scared. They were worried that the next game would be his limit, and the odds steadily went up again. By the time he fought against Geng Chen in the top 30 for the first game of the provincial competition, the odds had once again been extremely high.

The result was something they really had never expected!

Not only had Odin won, but he'd also won in an amazing way! His victories in 1v1 were a complete repeat of his performance in the team battles--unstoppable and unmatched. Any enemy who stood in front of him was the same as the rest!

At the time, some people had calculated that if one had used a dollar to bet on Odin winning right from the start, they would have made over a thousand times the amount by now.


This caused countless e-sports fans to howl and lament their ignorance back then. They wanted to go back in time and wake up the earlier versions of themselves who had looked down on a free-for-all battle contestant--especially those who had originally placed bets and then failed to continue when they saw that the risk was so great. They were now so regretful that they were beating their chests, and their intestines were green. Heaven knew how many times they would have flipped the initial investment if they'd betted all the way from the start until the Odin vs Geng Chen match...

Then, another thing had happened that nobody had ever thought would happen!

Geng Chen was far from being Odin's limit. Once again, they'd been too young, too ignorant, and too naive.

And, this was how Odin had reached the top of the Second Star Province.

This position was one that even Vantico had come short of by two points. However, the difference between Vantico and Odin was too big; Vantico was a contestant who kept improving through competitions. He had even failed before in the district competition for the Earth District. When he had played in the provincial competition, his progress was obvious, and by the time he had played in the National Championships, it was clear that he'd honed himself further, had become more tenacious, and with a bit of luck, it had allowed him to successfully reach third place. As for Odin...

Odin was like a bottomless abyss. Whenever someone felt that this was all he had, he would show them new strengths and use actual facts to prove that this wasn't the peak of his actual strength. He was only putting on a perfect, flawless act!

Back then, some people had thought that Odin had displayed his full strength in the first free-for-all battle, but he'd ended up winning the district championship. These people thought that they'd misjudged and that this was only 50% of his strength.


Later on, some people thought that the district championship was a result of his all-out effort, but he then had qualified for the provincial competition. These people all shattered their glasses and admitted that there were problems with their vision. It seemed that they had only seen 20%.
