Unstoppable Sweep

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. The preliminary round was already halfway through, and of the more than eight billion contestants in World Zone 66, most had been eliminated. Those who had survived until now were all far from ordinary.

Contestant: Yue Ming

Points: 21,075,942

Rank: 75,942,048

Yue Ming lowered his head and glanced at the bracer screen on his wrist. It displayed his current points and ranking. He had over twenty-one million points, while his ranking had long since fallen beyond seventy million.

He had not taken the initiative to hunt other contestants. Those twenty-plus million points had all come from contestants who had foolishly tried to make a move against him over the past half month, only to be killed in return.

"Time to make a move!"

Yue Ming slowly rose to his feet and walked out of the villa. Then he shot into the sky, soon arriving at City No. 33. Hovering above the city, he looked down over it and sensed quite a few powerful auras within.

There were a total of eighty-eight cities in World Zone 66, where Yue Ming was competing. Each city gathered a large number of contestants, and City No. 33 was Yue Ming's first target!

Yue Ming did not take the initiative to seek them out. Instead, he unreservedly released his aura, acting as arrogantly as possible, as though he did not take anyone seriously at all.

"What an arrogant fellow!"

On top of a skyscraper in City No. 33, a tall, imposing, and exceptionally handsome young man with red hair and eyebrows sat cross-legged on the rooftop with his eyes closed. He wore fiery red armor.

A scorching aura radiated from his body, distorting the space within several thousand meters from the heat. His domain enveloped the entire skyscraper, turning it into a Forbidden Zone that no one dared enter.

At that moment, the young man suddenly opened his eyes and looked toward Yue Ming. His eyes seemed to burn with flames as his entire body transformed into a streak of red light and rapidly flew toward Yue Ming.

"Is this a provocation?"

"Arrogant! Let me see who it is!"

"Hehe, what a brazen bastard!"

It was not only the red-haired young man. Nearly every genius who sensed Yue Ming's aura charged toward him. After all, who among them was not a genius? Such wanton provocation was simply intolerable.

"They're all quite proud. Just a little provocation, and none of them could take it."

Sensing more than a dozen powerful auras rapidly flying toward him, Yue Ming could not help but smile. His reputation was still obscure for now. Once he fought his way to fame, anyone who saw him would probably keep their distance.

"Who are you? A powerful expert like you could not possibly be unknown. I have never seen you in City No. 33, nor have I heard your name. You must have come from another city, right?"

A streak of red light approached from afar and quickly arrived before Yue Ming. It was the red-haired young man. He sensed an immense threat from Yue Ming, so he did not act rashly.

"No. I'm from City No. 33 too."

Yue Ming did not attack immediately either, because he was waiting for the others to arrive. He feared that if he revealed his strength too soon, they would be frightened away and refuse to come. Then would he not have to waste time searching for them one by one?

"Good, everyone's here. Don't say I didn't give you a chance to attack. Come at me together! If I make a move, you won't get another chance!"

Soon, more than a dozen figures arrived one after another. They were the strongest contestants in City No. 33. Every one of them was extremely powerful; even the weakest had a Ninth Layer Domain, and two had even comprehended a trace of Origin Laws.

"Hehe, I hope your strength is as tough as your mouth!"

"Too arrogant! He clearly doesn't take us seriously!"

"Interesting. Ever since I became famous, this is the first time I've been looked down on like this..."

The battle ended very quickly. Facing the joint assault of more than a dozen geniuses, Yue Ming calmly drew his origin force battle sword. Then his figure split into dozens of afterimages. As flashes of sword light swept past, all the geniuses fell to the ground, the light in their eyes gradually fading.

"What a fast sword!"

At the instant their consciousnesses were teleported away by the Virtual Universe, everyone only had time for a single thought. This was especially true for the two geniuses who had comprehended a trace of Origin Laws. They had hoped to shine in the Genius Battle, yet they had not even made it through the preliminary round.

Contestant: Yue Ming

Points: 25,204,107

Rank: 272

Yue Ming lowered his head and glanced at the bracer screen on his wrist. It showed that his ranking had entered the top three hundred. Killing more than a dozen geniuses had earned him over twenty-five million Points.

Thinking about it, though, it was only natural. Those dozen or so geniuses were the strongest contestants in City No. 33, so they naturally carried plenty of Points. Even if killing them only yielded half their Points, the gains were still substantial.

Logically, there were only eighty-eight cities in World Zone 66. After killing the top geniuses in one city, his Points should have been enough to push him into the top hundred. Yet he had only entered the top three hundred.

The main reason was that not all the geniuses from City No. 33 had remained in their original city. Some had gone to other cities. Otherwise, Yue Ming's Points would have at least doubled.

"I'll harvest for an hour, then head to another city!"

Yue Ming split into a thousand figures, pushing Sevenfold Space to its limit as he began hunting throughout City No. 33. Almost no one who encountered him could escape.

Unfortunately, ordinary contestants had far too few Points. Most of them fled the moment they saw him, and he could not be bothered to waste time chasing them down one by one. After harvesting for an hour, he had only gained a little over five million Points.

"Time to go to City No. 34!"

Yue Ming flew through the air, heading straight for City No. 34. After arriving, he repeated the same tactic, recklessly releasing his aura. His arrogant bearing quickly drew quite a few people over, and every one of them was slain by a single sword strike!

After clearing out the geniuses in City No. 34, Yue Ming proceeded to City No. 35, then City No. 36. However, as the number of geniuses he killed grew, his reputation gradually spread.

When Yue Ming arrived at City No. 38 and released his aura in hopes of luring the city's geniuses into his trap, he discovered that no one was falling for it anymore. Many people even fled far away at the sight of him, as though they had seen a plague god.

"Looks like my reputation has spread!"

Since no one was taking the bait anymore, Yue Ming could only seek them out one by one himself. It was troublesome and wasted a great deal of time, but he had no other choice.

Fortunately, having comprehended the Space Origin Laws, Yue Ming was incredibly fast. Almost no one he set his sights on could escape.

Of course, there were always those who refused to accept it, believing themselves peerless in talent and invincible in battle. They took the initiative to challenge Yue Ming. As for the result, naturally, they were all killed by Yue Ming with a single sword strike!
