"Let me see." Upon hearing this, Babata quickly sent a wisp of his consciousness to investigate.

"Wow, your odds have reached an astonishing 1:500! The prize pool has now accumulated to 400 billion Black Dragon Dollar!"

"Four hundred billion, five hundred times the odds?" Yang Yu smiled slightly. "Then I'll bet thirty million Black Dragon Dollar!"

"Sure! Why not take this money?" Babata chuckled and placed his bet immediately.

In his view, Yang Yu participating in such Survival Competition was practically free money, and 30 million multiplied by 500 equals 15 billion Black Dragon Dollar, which is nothing compared to the 400 billion total.

As expected, after Babata bet 30 million Black Dragon Dollar on Yang Yu to win, Yang Yu's odds only dropped slightly, but immediately rebounded to 1:500 due to the overall market downturn, and even showed a tendency to rise further.

Perhaps it was because Yang Yu, Planetary Level 3 contestant, was too conspicuous that there were significantly more people betting this time than in previous periods. By noon, the prize pool had accumulated to 600 billion Black Dragon Dollar, and all one hundred contestants had been gathered.

Finally, at midnight, Yang Yu's odds settled at 1:520, and the prize pool amounted to 630 billion Black Dragon Dollar.

This time, the fact that a third- Planetary Level Nine Planetary Level 3 contestants has completely ignited the excitement of the Survival Competition.

Yang Yu ignored the outside world that day, only updating his latest strength on the platform before throwing himself back into the Killing Field to challenge stronger opponents. He continued until he had Mysterious Fusion of 'speed' into his Thunder Body Technique and Blade Technique, and then the time for the match was up.

At dawn, a short, firm knock sounded on the door. "Sir, it's time for your competition. Please come with us on the aircraft to the competition venue."

"Hold on."

After quickly settling in, Yang Yu opened the door and followed the staff outside the hotel.

The area was now filled with contestants, staff, and onlookers.

Among them were Nuoci, the Green-Haired Punk Minotaur, and Jier, the fish-scaled man, who had previously mocked and threatened Yang Yu.

When Yang Yu appeared, the two men's gazes were filled with murderous intent, and most of the other contestants also looked hostile.

In their view, perhaps the optimal choice is to eliminate the seemingly weakest one first.

Sensing their undisguised hostility, Yang Yu smiled casually. After two days of frenzied killing in the Killing Field, Yang Yu had a complete grasp of his current strength, and because he had touched upon the mystery of 'speed', his strength had increased even more.

It's no exaggeration to say that Yang Yu, at full power, could single-handedly sweep away those ten thousand Planetary Level Nine Fierce Beast and the other ninety-nine contestants!

After all, Yang Yu now has the support of Tier 3 Spiritual Weapon, has crossed the threshold of the Lightning Origin Law, and has perfectly integrated the law with the Fourfold Domain. He has also begun to comprehend the Law Essence.

With such skill, this so-called Survival Competition is just a casual game for Yang Yu.

Looking at the various expressions on the faces of the people around him, Yang Yu calmly walked towards the circular aircraft, received the contestant's wristband, boarded the aircraft, and closed his eyes to wait.

Soon all one hundred contestants boarded the aircraft, and with a slight vibration, the aircraft took off and flew towards the competition canyon.

The aircraft was very fast, and it arrived at the location in less than a minute.

At this moment, a man five meters tall, whose entire body was covered in rock-like skin, walked up to the group of contestants. "The three-day Survival Competition is about to begin. For these three days, you can only stay in the canyon below. If anyone tries to escape from the canyon, the powerful beings watching from the sky will throw you back. Those who attempt to escape multiple times will be killed on the spot!"

"Now, the Survival Competition begins!"

At the command of the burly man with the rocky frame, the circular aircraft opened its hatch.

Seeing this, Yang Yu's Blood Red Battle Armor, formed from the Moyun Vine, quietly appeared in an instant. He then gripped the Thunder Blade, leaped out of the hatch, and flew towards the canyon.

At this moment, ten thousand Fierce Beast of various kinds had already been released into the wide canyon below, many of which resembled Monsters from Earth.

From high above, Yang Yu could clearly see that most of the Fierce Beast were gathered in the wide area in the center of the canyon, while the edge of the canyon was covered with dense shrubs and Giant Wood Forest, or perhaps both.

This Survival Canyon is still too large.

"Tch, so eager to die," the Minotaur Nuoci scoffed. "Little Jier, let's follow him down there!"

"Yes, brother!"

The two then donned Tier 2 Force Battle Suit, grabbed weapons and shields, and jumped downwards.

Seeing this, the others also jumped down in groups of three or five, each choosing their own landing spot.

Only after the last contestant jumped off did the circular aircraft slowly close its hatch, while a team of Star Level 9 powerhouses appeared above the canyon to monitor the situation.

"Bang!"

"Laugh!"

Yang Yu landed heavily on the ground and casually unleashed a Force Blade Light, slaying a giant python over 300 meters long. He then used the Soul Devour Secret Technique to absorb the True Spirit of this Fierce Beast, which had reached the Planetary Level Nine.

"Phew~"

"What a wonderful feeling." Having absorbed such delicious True Spirit for the first time, Yang Yu closed his eyes in comfort.

Deep within his Consciousness Sea, the bright giant python's True Spirit, after having its memories and impurities removed, was easily refined and absorbed by Yang Yu's soul. With just one of these, Yang Yu felt his soul visibly grow stronger!

"Hmm~ Absorbing about a thousand of them should be enough to raise my soul strength to the Planetary Level Limit! My comprehension will also improve significantly."

Having fully absorbed the True Spirit Essence, Yang Yu deduced the limit of the True Spirit that his Planetary Level- level soul could devour.

"Indeed, it devours far more Soul True Spirit than the War God stage." Yang Yu's eyes shone as he looked at the Fierce Beast that were faintly visible in the canyon. At this moment, these grotesque Fierce Beast seemed so cute to Yang Yu.

The other Fierce Beast that had originally been entrenched here, seeing Yang Yu casually kill the giant python, had already fled to other places. Only the Fierce Beast in the distance were unaware of the situation and were thinking of banding together to kill these contestants.

The Planetary Level Nine Fierce Beast already possessed considerable intelligence; their only chance of survival was to kill all the contestants!

Or simply wait until the end of the match.

Then I hope I can be lucky enough to avoid it again in the next match.

If, after several cycles, one manages to break through to the Star Level, they will be thrown into the Star Level Survival Competition to fill a vacancy until they are finally drained of all their value and die.

This is the fate of these Fierce Beasts.

They had no other choice.

Yang Yu was neither surprised nor sympathetic to these Fierce Beasts, having learned this from the giant python's memories.

In the cold universe, even fellow Human Race are enslaved and sold, let alone Alien Race Fierce Beast.

To survive, you need to have a strong fist and enough power!

Yang Yu glanced at the Minotaur and fish-scaled man who had landed behind him, remained unmoved, grinned, and said, "Welcome to Survival Canyon!"

At this moment, the people of Qiu Long City who were watching the match live originally thought that Yang Yu was only at the Planetary Level 3, would be instantly killed by the Planetary Level Nine Fierce Beast guarding below, and would be eliminated as soon as he landed.

But the result was far beyond their expectations.

When they saw Yang Yu easily slay the hundreds-of-meters-long giant python with his Force Blade Light, they were not immediately shocked by Yang Yu's strength, but regretted why they hadn't suppressed Yang Yu!

How much money will they lose now!

On the contrary, no one cared about Yang Yu's life or death. This is the nature of humanity in the universe. No one cares who you are or whether you live or die.

They only care about whether they will benefit from it, and whether you are useful to them.

"Big brother, this kid seems a bit shady." Jier, who witnessed Yang Yu instantly kill the giant python from the air, suddenly felt a little apprehensive.

"Hmph! What are you afraid of? He's just a mere Planetary Level 3. He probably used all his strength to kill that giant python. After that attack, his Origin Force was probably completely drained. Now, if we join forces, killing him will be a piece of cake!"

Nuoci the Minotaur appeared very confident, even in his speech.

Having signed a competition contract, they can fight each other without any scruples.

Hearing the Minotaur's words, Yang Yu brandished his Thunder Blade with interest. Having been tempered in the Killing Field, Yang Yu had no interest in the mere Planetary Level Nine Martial Artist and Spirit Reader before him. "You two come at me together, I'm in a hurry."

"You arrogant brat, prepare to die!"

The Minotaur Spirit Reader, was furious upon hearing this. His strength was quite good among Planetary Level Nine, and he had never been mocked by Planetary Level 3 before.

Suddenly, a Disc-shaped Spiritual Weapon whistled as it slashed towards Yang Yu, while the fish-scaled man, Martial Artist, also gripped his sword and unleashed a burst of speed as he charged toward Yang Yu.

"Since you're in such a hurry to die, then so be it!"

Yang Yu lightly swung the Thunder Blade, almost simultaneously unleashing two Force Light. One beam deflected the disc-shaped Spiritual Weapon, but the attack continued unabated, striking the Minotaur behind him with Thunderous Momentum, instantly tearing his second-tier battle armor and cleaving him in two from head to toe!

At the same time, the Martial Artist Jier, who had charged halfway, was also cleaved in two by a blade flashing with electricity.

"Whoa!"

"He's so strong!"

Only then did the viewers of the live stream realize how powerful Yang Yu was; two Planetary Level Nine Spirit Reader and Martial Artist were so easily killed by him.

"Could he be the biggest dark horse in this Survival Competition?"

Everyone who witnessed this scene couldn't help but have this thought.

Yang Yu, who had instantly killed two bedbugs, remained completely unmoved. "Planetary Level 3?"

"Today, we'll give these residents of Qiu Long City a shocking display of power!"

Although Yang Yu did not unleash his domain or reveal the Lightning Origin Law, his Thunder Blade Technique, with its energy contained to the extreme, was enough to crush all creatures in the canyon.

These minor characters are not enough to make Yang Yu resort to his true methods.

At this moment, Yang Yu's lips curled slightly. Just as he passed by the fallen bodies of the Minotaur and the fish-scaled man, he had silently used the Soul Devour Secret Technique to devour their True Spirit.

"Although they are two useless individuals, their True Spirit Essence is quite good."

Yang Yu was in a very good mood after absorbing three top-grade True Spirit at the Planetary Level stage as soon as he landed in the canyon.

Getting something for free is definitely the greatest joy.

If he were to spend money to buy Planetary Level Nine Fierce Beast to kill Soul Devour, that would be quite expensive. Yang Yu needs to save money now so he can buy Earth as soon as possible.

Speaking of those two weak but temperamental men, they were the first Human Race souls Yang Yu had ever absorbed.

However, the universe is vast, and the strong rule everything, not to mention that those two had already chosen a path to their deaths.

Moreover, even more scum of the Human Race will die at Yang Yu's hands in the future.

Since these scoundrels can't create any value while they're alive, it's better to kill the True Spirit that devour them and turn them into resources for our own growth!

Having undergone the initial trials of the Grand Nirvana, Yang Yu's mind was already incredibly resolute.

Moreover, when Yang Yu read the Original Work in his previous life, he learned a lot about the darkness within the Swallowed Star World. This feeling was even stronger after visiting the Slave Market.

In the vast universe, although Human Race is the Peak Race, internal strife is rampant, not to mention that the Slave Trade is legal.

This strengthened Yang Yu's resolve to become stronger.

Walking slowly through the wide canyon, Yang Yu, dressed in a Blood Red Battle Suit, was as calm as if he were strolling in his own backyard.

Suddenly.

A Giant Dragon-type Fierce Beast, measuring 500 meters in length, sensed that Yang Yu's aura seemed extremely weak. It immediately revealed a cruel look in its eyes, intending to ambush him from among the giant trees in the canyon.

But how could such clumsy concealment escape Yang Yu's perception? Nevertheless, Yang Yu pretended not to notice it and continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.

At this moment, some residents of Qiu Long City who were watching the live broadcast were secretly worried for Yang Yu. "Don't go any further! Please don't! That's the Blood Tooth Dragon, the most ferocious of Fierce Beast!"

A cute girl wearing Pink Pajamas, whose appearance was almost indistinguishable from that of Earthling Humans, had just opened a live stream while lying on a large, luxurious bed. Yang Yu's handsome face instantly captured her heart.

The cute girl kept muttering to herself as she looked at the virtual screen in front of her.

Yang Yu's decisive and ruthless fighting style had already attracted many fans, and his unique temperament and handsome appearance made him very attractive to many girls.

After walking several hundred meters further, Yang Yu entered the Giant Wood Forest. These Jumu were a thousand meters tall, surrounded by shrubs and weeds tens of meters deep.

The Blood Tooth Dragon, which is over 500 meters long, is hiding in the weeds. Although it is very long, it is not very thick, with a diameter of only about ten meters, which allows it to hide well in the bushes.

100 meters, 90 meters, 80 meters

When Yang Yu was only seventy meters away from the Blood Tooth Dragon, it launched a fierce attack!

This was a distance it believed Yang Yu was powerless to resist; in previous Survival Competition, it had used this move to kill many Planetary Level Nine participants.

It's confident this time too!

Swish!

A distance of seventy meters can be crossed in an instant by a top-tier Fierce Beast at the Planetary Level Nine.

Suddenly, the enormous, blood-red maw seemed about to swallow Yang Yu whole!

After all, Yang Yu, who was less than two meters tall, was far too small in front of it.

But small doesn't mean weak!

Seeing the lurking Fierce Beast finally strike, Yang Yu's lips curled into a slight smile, and at the same time, his War Blade suddenly slashed upwards!

A tremendous burst of Force Light instantly illuminated the dense forest of the canyon.

As the flash of the blades faded, the enormous dragon head lay fallen to one side, and blood, like a small river, gushed continuously from the dragon's severed neck, quickly staining the ground red before flowing down into the low-lying areas.

"Yay!" The girl in the Pink Pajamas couldn't help but shout. Just now, when the Blood Tooth Dragon suddenly attacked, her heart was in her throat, fearing that Yang Yu, who had just effortlessly killed the enemy, would die.

But now it seems that Yang Yu's strength is indeed not as simple as it appears.
