He stared at Fane with widened eyes before he looked at the token in Fane's hands, he even wondered if he was dreaming. Otherwise, there was no way he would see something so absurd.
That guy actually left the token with the gold difficulty behind. He had handed the other to the caretaker.
Monte said, "Hey, Lane, did you mix up the rules? The one remaining is the difficulty you're choosing, not the one you don't want!"
Fane raised an eyebrow. He nodded at Monte calmly, indicating that he was not mistaken. He had chosen precisely that. Monte's lips twitched. He looked like he had been choked and was unable to say anything. He could not understand what that man was doing at all.
Was that man suicidal? Was he trying to entertain everyone? Does he not know what the gold difficulty represented? Monte looked at Fane like a complete idiot.
The spectators were in an uproar at that moment as well. It sounded like there were hundreds of thousands of flies buzzing about at that moment, causing great annoyance which made Funny frown. He hated noisy atmospheres the most, but that was all within his expectations.
"What is this guy doing? Does he want to die? Is he sick of living? Could there be something wrong with his head? Ever since the Killing Hall opened, I've never heard of anyone who dared to challenge the gold difficulty! Where did this guy come from? He actually chose the gold difficulty! Does he really want to die?!"
Plenty of people had chosen the black iron difficulty, and most of them were above-average warriors who were at the front of the rankings. Even if they were extraordinarily strong, quite a few of them still failed and died.
That was just the black iron difficulty, so the bronze difficulty was even worse. Ever since the Killing Hall opened, the number of warriors that managed to pass the bronze difficulty could be counted with the fingers from two hands. All of those warriors were at the peak of above-average warriors and some of the warriors were at the very peak. They stood at the top of the Whirling World.
Even with their skills at that level, quite a few of them still failed and died at the bronze difficulty. It was obvious how challenging it was. Even the bronze difficulty was that hard, let alone the gold.
This guy's choice was a complete joke. Was he planning on using his death to prove how hard the gold difficulty was? Was he just suicidal? Maybe he felt like he wanted to die with a bang. At that moment, the spectators were in a complete uproar.
"That guy is crazy! I really don't know what he's thinking. Where did he come from? Does he just want attention? Maybe he just wants to die?"
"Does someone know who that guy is? Is there something wrong with his head?"
Those guesses caused everyone to be very curious about Lane Woole. Many of them wanted to know what that guy was thinking. Quite a few people saw Fane's earlier conflict with Nalym as well.
However, they had only seen the two of them had some conflict and that Lane was not afraid of Star Continent. Facing Nalym's threats, Lane had not batted an eye and had even shot back at Nalym. Everyone had deep impressions of Lane at that moment.
Nalym was so ecstatic, he laughed so much that he was about to cry. It was just too much of an amusing sight. There was something wrong with that guy's head. Otherwise, there was no way Lane would have said such absurd things and ignored his threats.
