Pro Wrestling System

(Max Fury: I can't come up there to meet up. I'm sorry).

Arnold dropped a reply after pondering for a while, deciding to meet Selina in the building. Actually, he had come up with a decision not to date her, and it was final.

(Selina Greenwood: Why? You wouldn't want to dare me, right?)

(Max Fury: I don't give a f**k of what I dare you to do. I am someone's fiance and I wouldn't be involved in such a relationship).

(Selina Greenwood: We shall see, Fury...)

With an angered look, Arnold heaved a sigh and entered his car. He then drove off swiftly and disappeared into the streets.

...

Back at home, Arnold decided to spend the rest of the day training. There was a large room built somewhere in the house that contained a wrestling ring, which he could use to practice. He personally made this for himself due to the nature of his job, basically because he practiced at all times.

He would always visit the gym in the nearest gym house in the town, which wasn't a problem at all.

After gaining the Tombstone Piledriver Skill, Arnold had to practice together with completing the Ironskin training. It had taken most of his time, but it was all for success after all.

He made sure that he completed the Ironskin training before he moved to the Tombstone Piledriver practice, gaining a few rewards after that.

[Ironskin progression: 100%.]

[You have gained 5 Combat Energy Points.]

[You have gained 10 points to your Endurance.]

[You have gained 10 points to your Attack Power.]

[You have gained 3 points to your Strength.]

[You have gained 1 point to your Agility.]

Arnold was only attracted to the Combat Energy Points, which he knew was a very valuable thing to him. All these while, he had been trying to gather a lot of them to be able to use the Hardcore Wrestling arts when needed. And at the end...

[Combat Energy: 9.]

He had managed to gain 9 Combat Energy Points. Arnold concluded that it was pretty low and disappointing, but the system shook him off that belief.

[This isn't poor, host. You are giving your all, and it's impressive.]

Arnold couldn't help but smile at the acknowledgment, the bad feeling fading away in an instant.

With that motivated spirit, he kept training and training until he began the Tombstone Piledriver practice. Due to having no idea of how to deliver such a move, it took quite a long time before Arnold could perfect it.

Although he was used to relentless practice, that doesn't mean that he had no moves to practice. The system also revealed the next Hardcore Wrestling art, "Ironfist".

[Ironfist Description: The process whereby you launch a punch after a great channeling of the Ironskin power on your fist. Consumes half an Energy Point when used.]

Arnold shrugged. "It's just a practice, will it still consume Combat Energy Points while I practice it?"

[No, host. You will gain more Combat Energy Points while you practice it instead.]

With that said Arnold heaved a sigh of relief. The fact that his Combat Energy Points, which wouldn't be consumed while he practiced, made him quite delighted since he needed to gather a lot of them.

Although it appeared that these points wouldn't be needed at this time, he only wanted a lot for them due to other events.

Honestly, Arnold wasn't only getting himself prepared for just the so-called Arrival that the system often said; he was ready for their cases...

Ben was surely his enemy which he knew could plot an unprofessional attack against him one day...

Tristan Black and Corey Gallagher were the worst of issues, making his family still unsafe until today.

Just a few days ago, he had turned down Selina Greenwood's proposal to be her gigolo; how would he not be ready for any suspected events?

The world is cruel; he knew that since his father died from an unknown source, he was stripped of the little wealth that he had.

Arnold believed that many hated the fact that he was succeeding and achieving his dreams, so there was no way he could only look forward to the Arrival of those who could take him down before they were around.

"I have to be ready..."

With a long relentless practice on the first day of his Tombstone Piledriver practice...

[Perfection: 45%.]

Arnold managed to perfect the Tombstone Piledriver finisher with 45% progress...

It took him three consecutive days to make the Skill perfect, although he had spent part-time training the Ironfist art, making a 23% progression after the same three days.

It was clear that learning Hardcore Wrestling was far more difficult than the typical wrestling moves... This wasn't the first time Arnold was being notified and experiencing it himself.

[23% perfection.]

"Sigh... I'd have to spend two weeks to get this completed," he muttered with a bit of exhaustion.

On the third day of the training, he sat on the mat after a long section of practice and training, pondering.

Just that moment, a message got to him, and it was a notification of the debut match as a Slamdown superstar.

(We gladly inform you about your debut in the Slamdown show. You would be taking Calvin Dean in a one-on-one match in next week's show in San Diego, California).

Arnold read the message and smiled.

"My home city, cool!" He nodded.

"Now I can't wait to make San Diego scream in joy," he added, stood up, and went into his room in the house.

Just like he always did, he went ahead to begin research about the so-called Calvin Dean whom he would be facing in his debut.

This was what had helped in most matches he fought, having observed and noted down the flaws of his opponents while they fought.

He had done that in Grindhouse Wrestling, and Slamdown wouldn't be an exception.

With a click on his keyboard, he began watching match videos of this Calvin guy, hoping to find as many useful things as possible.

*Click*

(Calvin Dean, former 6 times Rampage Intercontinental Champion).
