Rong Jun's Mindset Collapsed!

The sun peeked out from the east.

"Buzz!"

The complex patterns on the surface of the silver, wheel-shaped telekinetic weapon instantly activated 12 green threads, like electric snakes. The 12 green threads quickly extended to the edge of the wheel, and when these green threads gathered together, it was as if heavenly thunder had stirred up earthly fire.

Twelve green silk threads instantly wrapped and spun around!

The wheel-shaped telekinetic weapon quickly transformed into a green beam of light, spinning rapidly at an incredible speed before suddenly shooting out.

Boom!

The wheel struck the strange war puppet in the distance, slashing a huge wound in its armor. The wheel flew back in an arc through the air.

"Brother, look."

"I already told you I've been cultivating diligently," Lin Tangtang said to Lin Yan with a smug smile.

Lin Yan walked over from the side, and seeing her bright smile, he couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle, " Of the Nine Basic Arts of the 'Control Chapter,' you've achieved minor success in the techniques of 'Condensation,' 'Dispersion,' 'Resilience,' 'Softness,' 'Strength,' and 'Dance.' Hmm, not bad."

Lin Tangtang rarely heard anything nice from Lin Yan, and she couldn't contain her excitement. "Haha, of course!"

"Don't you even know whose sister I am!"

Lin Yan pondered.

Little sister, you've really broadened your path!

A deep purple fruit with an incredibly delicate surface suddenly appeared in his hand. "Stop flattering me, I know exactly what you're thinking, little girl."

"Once your 'Yan Hua' digests this Demon Luo Fruit, you'll be able to break through to the Stellar level. However, you can't use it to prank your classmates, understand?"

Lin Tangtang giggled and said, "Brother, I knew you were good to me. I'm the best behaved, how could I possibly tease my classmates?"

Call!

The moment she reached out, a layer of white petals spread across her arm, emitting a refreshing fragrance. These countless petals enveloped the Demon Luo Fruit and then merged into her arm.

"Yan Hua" is her auxiliary Plant Lifeform, and also a birthday gift from Lin Yan when she was 16 years old. It is even rarer than Mo Yun Vine.

Lin Yan let her choose for herself, and she immediately picked Yan Hua. The reason was simple: it was indeed beautiful.

Lin Yan smiled and patted her hair, then said, "Time really flies. That little kid who couldn't even keep her New Year's money is all grown up now."

It feels like it was just yesterday.

"Brother, we agreed not to mention this," Lin Tangtang said, embarrassed and annoyed.

"Besides, you're not much older than me, and you're still the Ganwu Universe Country's Number One Genius!" She said, then probed, "The final battle of the universe is about to begin, right? Are you confident you can take first place again?"

Lin Yan glanced at her sideways. "I'm more confident than you getting first place at Star River University."

Although Lin Tangtang is his sister, he is very generous in his investment in Star River University. Whether it is secret techniques or resources, they are all provided in abundance. In fact, the best students can even receive guidance from Cosmic level powerhouses.

Therefore, she cannot gain much advantage because of her family background; she still has to rely on herself.

Upon hearing this, Lin Tangtang was stunned. Really?

My brother is that strong?

"Hmph, just you wait and see. I'm going to get first place at Star River University no matter what. Then we'll see if you're just bragging." Lin Tangtang snorted and said expectantly.

Lin Yan smiled but remained silent.

Virtual Universe, Black Dragon Mountain Island.

When Lin Yan appeared at Crescent Bay, Luo Feng was on the lawn in front of the door with his children. He had twin sons who were now 11 years old by the Chinese age reckoning.

"Dad is the strongest!" shouted Luo Hai, the younger brother, on the lawn.

"Haha." Luo Feng couldn't help but laugh at his smug look.

At this moment, when the Luo Ping saw Lin Yan appear, his eyes darted around, and he said in an old-fashioned tone, "Younger brother, Uncle Lin is stronger."

"Dad is the best!" Luo Hai said, hands on his hips and pouting.

"Stop arguing, you two!" Thunder God shouted, waving his fist. "The battle is about to begin, then we'll see who's stronger."

He touched his bald head and let out a hearty laugh, "Maybe your Thunder God Thor is the strongest!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the two brothers stuck their tongues out at Thunder God: "Hehe, Thunder God Thor, you're shameless."

Thunder God laughed heartily, realizing they were used to teasing each other like this.

On the lawn, Luo Feng's parents were playing with Luo Ping and Luo Hai, while Lin Yan and the other three walked to the side.

Lin Yan smiled and said, "It seems that everyone has become much stronger."

They were both focused on their cultivation and didn't see each other often.

It had been a while since they last met, and Lin Yan could still sense some changes in them.

Thunder God replied with a smile, "Brother Hong and I are just accompanying the Crown Prince in his studies, but we have made considerable progress in the past few years. Although Brother Hong did not become Lord Luo's disciple, he listened to your advice, made more connections, and received a lot of guidance after getting to know you."

"Lord Luo was very generous and said that we could ask him for advice if we had any questions. I also benefited a bit from that. That World Lord Tianchen is World Lord peak who has been recognized by the Lightning Origin Law. He is top-tier even in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire and is stronger than my teacher Kabu, who received the inheritance in the Thunder World."

No sooner had he finished speaking than his virtual assistant on his shoulder, an old man with a white beard, roared angrily, "Nonsense! Nonsense!"

"Your teacher is much better than that General Jiang Tianchen!"

This is the Intelligent life form that Thunder God obtained in the Thunder World, Master Wu, who is currently jumping and bouncing on Thunder God's shoulder, looking quite aggressive.

Everyone burst into laughter.

Lin Yan looked at Luo Feng and asked, "Are you confident you can make it into the top 1,000?"

"It's a bit difficult," Luo Feng with some distress. "The time I've spent cultivating is still too short."

This time, the opponents are millions of geniuses from numerous Universe Country, more than half of whom have crossed the threshold of the Laws.

He had only nurtured his Moshazhu Race clone a year ago and had made considerable progress in the Space Origin Law, but a year was still too short... Even if he were to be honest, having two Cosmic level clones was practically cheating, but he was facing the Super genius of the entire universe, and his cultivation time was too short, so he still lacked accumulation.

Lin Yan nodded slightly. "Keep it up. You have a solid foundation. Make good use of the time in the Trial Space to improve your strength."

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng recalled the rules for the subsequent stages of the Genius Battle mentioned in the materials, and his heart skipped a beat.

Right!

Trial Space!

"Hmm." A look of joy appeared on his face.

If I make good use of my time here, I can easily squeeze out a year. At that time, I can have my Moshazhu Race clone in the real world cultivate diligently and try to continuously improve its strength. A year... can play a vital role for me.

"Everyone," Hong said, his eyes shining brightly, "Let's go... let's go and earn a bright future for ourselves and for the Earth."

The four looked at each other and smiled.

"Good."

On various continents and islands of the Virtual Universe, millions of exceptional geniuses from the 1008 Universe Nations teleported to the gathering places of their respective Universe Country.

Next to the teleportation point on the floating island.

This is a square surrounded by beautiful flowers and plants, where a large group of people have gathered. At first glance, there are hundreds of people, men and women, with different appearances, but at least a third of them are relatively close to Earthling in appearance.

Earthling appearance is considered mainstream in the universe.

"Luo Feng is here."

"Flood!"

"Hey, Thunder God."

Many people greeted Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God with smiles, because they had all gone through several years of Reincarnation Battle... so they knew quite a few people.

"Feng Lun!"

"Patro".

Luo Feng and his group also greeted several people they were on good terms with.

At this moment, a Savage over three meters tall with messy hair walked up to Lin Yan, stood next to him, and let out a hearty laugh, "Lin Yan, keep it up, I can't wait to fight you again."

Lin Yan turned and glanced at him. "Speaking of which, I want to ask you something."

The Wildman Youth Rong Jun looked down at him, somewhat puzzled. "What is it?"

Could it be that he discovered I had been hiding my true strength during our fight?

Did he discover that my swordsmanship was actually quite impressive, but I didn't reveal it?

Haha, no wonder he's a formidable opponent, good eye!

Rong Jun's mind raced for a moment.

Lin Yan calmly asked, "I want to ask, what would you look like if you washed your hair and changed into clean clothes?"

Um?

The Wildman Youth looked utterly astonished... I'm standing here, brimming with fighting spirit, and you ask me this?

Are you trying to figure out why I don't wash my hair?

The Wildman Youth tendencies almost lost his composure!

I don't like washing!

I don't like wearing shoes!

Suddenly--

"Boom!" An invisible pressure covered the entire square, and the faces of the thousand peerless geniuses turned pale, their bodies trembling slightly.

Lin Yan felt fine. After acquiring the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone, his willpower had improved significantly. However, he didn't really feel anything when facing the Consciousness Pressure of Stellar level consciousness.

But when he saw Hong standing there trembling more than anyone else, he couldn't help but start trembling too.

This fox is truly ancient, playing tricks on people from Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio!

Then, following the sound of footsteps, a giant wearing Scale Armor Robe and a helmet walked over, his aura naturally emanating from him as if the Grim Reaper had descended.

The air was thick with the stench of blood, instilling a sense of dread in everyone!

"The thousand geniuses of the Ganwu Universe Country are being led by me, as ordered by the Country Lord."

The giant's voice boomed, and his eyes, hidden beneath his helmet, exuded immense pressure. "You may call me 'Lord Thirteen,' understand?"

"Clear!"

The 1,000 exceptional geniuses spontaneously responded in unison.

"What terrifying pressure." Luo Feng's forehead was covered in cold sweat. "In reality, his willpower could absolutely crush my soul in an instant."

A thousand geniuses are as small as ants in front of this Giant in Scale Armor. Naturally, they would feel fear. This is pure instinct, an instinct that cannot be suppressed.

"Lin Yan! Rong Jun!" The Giant in Scale Armor looked at Lin Yan and the Savage Rong Jun.

"You are the most promising and confident group among this batch from our Ganwu Universe Country that will not be eliminated."

The Giant in Scale Armor said, "Your Country Lord has high hopes for you. Do not disappoint Country Lord, understand?"

"Yes," Lin Yan and Rong Jun replied respectfully.

Lin Yan thought to himself, "How could I let the Qianwu Country Lord down? I've already accepted the gifts!"

The Giant in Scale Armor swept his gaze across everyone and said coldly, "As for the others, there's little hope!"

Immediately, many of the young people clenched their fists, and Luo Feng in the crowd also frowned slightly.

"Hmph! Don't be unconvinced. Strength isn't something you can just talk about; it's demonstrated through battle!" The Giant in Scale Armor said coldly. "The strongest among the others is only at the level of 'Luo Feng,' but according to our intelligence, there are quite a few rare geniuses in this year's class."

"It would be good enough if Luo Feng could make it into the top 3,000, but his chances of making it into the top 1,000 are very slim! People like Lin Yan and Rong Jun even had a chance to compete for first place in previous years, but in this year, they can only make it into the top ten at best!"

"Certainly!"

"You too can create miracles! In history, there have been some unparalleled geniuses who started out as ordinary but suddenly exploded in the final showdown." The Giant in Scale Armor, "Thirteen," swept his gaze across everyone before changing the subject.

"Alright, let's go!"

This group of peerless geniuses from various star regions of the Ganwu Universe Country could only endure the "no hope" that this immortal being had said.

Then, the thousand geniuses, led by the Giant in Scale Armor, were simultaneously teleported to a brand new plane created in the Virtual Universe.

This is a vast continent.

There are 1,008 skyscrapers surrounding a beautiful square filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers. At this time, many young men and women from various Universe Country are strolling and chatting in that beautiful square. At a glance, there are at least more than 100,000 people.

The team from the Ganwu Universe Country was stationed at Building 0825, Giant in Scale Armor led the team to fly towards the plaza.

"Land!" the Giant in Scale Armor roared.

The genius team from the Ganwu Universe Country quickly landed at the edge of the plaza, and then walked directly along the road towards Building 0825. The plaza had special passages leading to each building.

"Look, that Building 0825 belongs to the Ganwu Universe Country, but I heard that their current team of geniuses is very strong."

The order of these buildings is closely related to the performance of the Universe Country in the Genius Battle. In previous years, the Ganwu Universe Country has always ranked very low.

"Yes! I've heard about it too."

"That tall Savage is Rong Jun, he's very powerful."

"And Lin Yan! Standing right next to the Savage, he was a genius who could unleash the second level of the Extreme Divine Weapon a few years ago!"

"The second level of the Extreme Divine Weapon? That's insane."

In the square, many geniuses from other Universe Country watched the Ganwu Universe Country team from afar and began to discuss among themselves.

There are millions of geniuses in the various Universe Country, so it's impossible to know them all. However, through intelligence gathering, the reputations of the top geniuses have already spread far and wide.

The only ones in the Ganwu Universe Country to receive this treatment are Lin Yan and Rong Jun. One has a high level of understanding of the Origin Law "light and time" and can use the second level of the Extreme Divine Weapon. The other has a high level of understanding of the Origin Law "earth and space" and can use the Earth Splitting Saber to create Phantom Body.

In previous years, they have always been a strong contender for first place.

Even though this year's competition is full of outstanding talents, they are still qualified to compete for a top ten spot and should not be underestimated.

The genius team from the Ganwu Universe Country, listening to the discussions of other geniuses from other Universe Country in the distance, felt a deep resentment in most of them.

Which of them wasn't a chosen one of heaven? Which of them wasn't a peerless genius?

They were once the center of attention, the envy of all, but here, they weren't even worthy of being glanced at.

Whether it was the Giant in Scale Armor, or the geniuses from other Universe Country, they only saw Lin Yan and Rong Jun and didn't take them seriously.

Hong and Thunder God were completely unaware. Their minds had become one with heaven and earth, unmoved by external gains or losses, and unfazed by honor or disgrace. These so-called "ignoring" and "looking down" were not even dust in their hearts.

Luo Feng remained calm.

In reality, both his Golden Horn Beast clone and his Moshazhu Race clone are diligently cultivating, seeking only the final result.

He didn't believe he wouldn't make it into the top 1,000.

He believes—

If it doesn't fly, it won't fly; but if it does, it will soar into the sky.

When it does speak, it is sober that it is considered a great success.
