Setting aside whether or not he would be able to complete the challenge in the second room, they'd need to talk about how fast they could complete the challengers. The other two might not be in the top ten among above-average warriors, but they were still in the top seventy or eighty. Fane was dressed so ordinarily, and one knew where he crawled out from.
If Fane was that strong, everyone would already have recognized him. Yet, he looked like a complete stranger. It could only prove one thing. Either he was an expert at hiding his looks, or he was just completely crazy. Everyone was thinking it was the latter.
The competition in the Whirling World was incredibly intense. Even if someone was trying to hide himself, he would not be able to hide for that long. After all, there were so many challenges. To obtain better resources and more spirit crystals, they would need to fight with their ability.
In those situations, there was no way anyone would be able to completely control what they showed. They would be exposed eventually. This was not a level seven or six city, but a level two city, Violet City! Before entering Violet City, there would have been many other challenges in other cities.
Yet, no one had any impression of this guy at all, whether it was his name or face. Unless this guy changed his face, it was impossible that no one recognized him. Hence, everyone thought that it was more likely that he was crazy. The main reason was that they felt like, even if Fane was hiding his skills, there was no way he would be able to beat the gold difficulty.
They were at the Killing Hall, where the death rate was as high as thirty percent. The moment someone enters the isolated space, there are only two results. Either they succeed in the challenge, or they die. No matter how skilled the man was, there was no way he would succeed.
In everyone's hearts, Lane Woole had chosen the gold difficulty because he was suicidal. Yet, he actually said that he was choosing to do the challenge alone because he was worried that the other two would hold him back and waste his time. That rendered everyone there speechless. Everyone felt like they could not keep up with what that guy was thinking.
Every single time Fane spoke, it shocked them to the core. He acted more and more crazily every single time. Crash was completely speechless. He started to look at Fane with a twisted expression. After a long time, Crash finally said in a low voice, "You really are the most confounding person I've met in the Whirling World."
Worried that Fane would say something, Crash had described Fane as confounding. Monte was more or less the same. The two of them looked at Fane strangely. Nalym was laughing so hard he was crying.
As he laughed, he said, "That complete idiot! He's so amazing! I don't know how to describe him at all. This guy's actually afraid that others will waste his time! He really thinks he's something else. If he can even successfully challenge the seventh and sixth rooms, I'll change my name to his!"
Lourain turned around and looked at the laughing Nalym in disgust. This guy really took the chance to mock Fane relentlessly. He was practically throwing every insulting word in the dictionary at Fane. Lourain had long since lost his temper with that guy.
Marth looked at Nalym coldly as well. Even without Fane around, neither of them liked Nalym at all. That guy was a complete animal. Even his laughter disgusted them. He was clearly just a dog following his master, but he acted like he was so amazing in front of everyone else, as if he was an unrivaled hunting hound!
Lourain said in a low tone, "I really want to slap him!"
Marth took a deep breath and nodded, "You're not the only one. However, we can't beat him. We might be able to if we worked together, but this is still a restricted area."
