Chapter 213 Level Four
And just like Bernard thought, if he didn't deal a fatal blow to his opponent then he would not be able to receive any experience points, it was just like how the game system recorded damages in the game and categorize them into a type normal of damage and critical or fatal blow.
This made him understand that his system also does the same thing and could also categorize how powerful his attack was inside the game not only that it also determine if the attack he had delivered to his opponent in the game if it was powerful enough to startle his opponent or send a strong shock wave to their mind in the real world depending on how powerful the shock wave was only then it would be considered as having dealt a fatal blow.
After Bernard confirmed this, he immediately got straight to work, this time rather than reserving his power like he always does in the real world, Bernard decided to go all out in the game, he didn't need to inspect his opponent and would simply just use blood bending and cast blood judgment on them, which would immediately send them to their knees.
When his third opponent arrived and was teleported in front of him, Bernard simply stood to the side and waited for the big countdown to finish the moment it was done counting, his opponent had just raised his head when he saw Bernard right in front of him, even though Bernard wanted to end all his fight as fast as possible in the game, for two major reasons firstly to conserve his energy points inside the game and secondly to farm as much experience points as much as he could, he still wanted to train himself while at it and not wasting such opportunity.
So when he arrived in front of his opponent rather than simply just activating blood bending to cast blood judgment on him, he instead got into a fighting position when his opponent saw this he began to activate his symbiote bloodline as well, this time around Bernard noticed his opponent didn't carry any beast weapon and was just using only his symbiote bloodline to fight.
A moment later round him he could see several ice spikes flying towards him both on the visible area and his blind corners, however, Bernard didn't flinch and simply just pass through like he was taking a walk and suddenly dash toward his opponent once more with a Meow Meow Cat Strike coming from his right hand.

When Bernard saw this he smirk, and without wasting any more time he soon search for another list of opponents on his radar, soon Bernard was able to fight three various opponents in a role and without putting much effort, just like in the previous matches Bernard simply walk through their attacks as if he was taking a fucking stroll before any of their attacks had been able to reach him the moment they entered within his three meters domain, it was like time had pause that even if he closed his eyes he would still be able to predict them as if his eyes were wide open.
With this way of fighting, Bernard didn't need to struggle with his opponent he only needed to calculate how much power his attack should pack in them, and which part of his opponent's body should he hit to be able to easily cause a fatal damage to them, just like the previous three matches after he was done he didn't rest or waste any time, he could already feel he was close to reaching another level since he could see how much experience he had and needed to reach the next level.
Seeing this gave Bernard even more motivation to fight, and soon two more matches were quickly over just like that, this time around he noticed his opponent seemed like they were a bit weaker compared to the previous ones, however, he quickly got to know that it wasn't the case but rather just like him his opponent was new to rebirth but then unlike him, they were still trying to get used to the new environment, while he was already fighting like a pro thanks to Sophia.
Of course, he knew better than anyone else if it was in the real world they wouldn't have lost so easily even if they could have been able to put in three to five seconds of struggle, the same thing goes for himself as well considering his skills and ability cost Hp and energy points in reality, although he would still be able to finish the current opponent he was fighting now just as easy but he would also have to consider the amount of Hp and energy points his skill and ability cost after using them.
However, there were still some things that wouldn't change such as his natural attribute his stats gave him which was Perception strength, and agility, even if he was in the main world he would still be able to use them effortlessly, it was just as simple since they didn't use any of his Hp or Energy points. One of the reasons why he wanted to level up was not just because he wanted to increase his level but also his hp and energy points.
After finishing his fifth fight, Bernard didn't immediately start another fight instead he took a break since he was about to level up at this moment he had gotten enough experience points, to reach the next level, just then after a while, he suddenly receive several notifications messages, when he saw them he couldn't help but smile this was what he had been waiting for all along, this was needless to say a piece of great news to him.
