The Genius Competition Ends, Gathering at Yuxiang Mountain (Part 1)
Ignoring the frenzied outside world, they remained in the Trial Space.
Luo Feng and the other three were still making a final, desperate effort.
Inside the Seventh Trial Tower.
At this point, 'Death God' Boluo had gone berserk.
But faced with tens of thousands of Blood-Haired Mammoth that had crossed the threshold of the Origin Law, even though Boluo could form thousands of Phantom Body and had a good understanding of the Wind Origin Law, he still ultimately perished under the endless Mammoth Beast.
No. 1 Boluo (Noah Universe Country), Points: 1,338,977,000!
"Hiss! Over 10 billion Points, my god, can a human earn that Points?" Feng Lun exclaimed in disbelief on the plaza.
"That's really outrageous. This Boluo actually killed 5,612 Blood-Haired Mammoth in the Seventh Trial Tower. Each of the Mammoth Beast on this level is as strong as a genius ranked in the top 100 in the entire universe."
"This is what Feng Lun's friend Busley, remarked."
This scene also caught the eye of Ai Chen, who had already been eliminated. "Boluo is good, but he's still quite a bit behind Yang Yu."
Although Ai Chen made great progress, he still stopped at the first level of the Sixth Trial Tower this time, and his final ranking was fifth.
As time passed, 'Blood Edge' Candita stopped at the fifth level of the fifth Trial Tower, ultimately ranking 28th.
Shortly after his failure at Candita, Yifeng 'Sword of Life,' stopped at the sixth level of the fifth Trial Tower, ranking 16th.
Now, only Luo Feng remains in the entire testing tower!
At this moment, all the immortals and all the participants in the battle looked at the single screen in the center of the square.
"Xiao Feng's strength is really impressive." Dong Nanbiao looked at Luo Feng, who was moving freely among the Zerg Warrior, and sighed sincerely.
"Indeed very strong, and his Movement Technique are constantly improving!" Hong said, staring at the screen.
At this moment, Luo Feng in the Trial Tower also broke through to the fifth and sixth floors, and just in time killed ten Starry Sky Behemoth 'Cang'.
Luo Feng then stepped onto the seventh floor.
They were then besieged by a massive number of Zerg Warrior.
Finally, through the trials of battle, Luo Feng's Mosha Clan Clone outside the body made a crucial breakthrough in the Space Law, allowing Luo Feng's human body to successfully unleash nine avatars!
With the appearance of nine Phantom Body, Luo Feng's Movement Technique underwent a qualitative change.
Luo Feng's "Nine Line Flow" Movement Technique enabled him to successfully pass the seventh level of the Fifth Trial Tower.
However, after reaching the first level of the Sixth Trial Tower, even though Luo Feng exerted all his strength and unleashed two 'Golden True Sword' and several Golden Illusion Swords, he could only kill 8,682 Blood-Haired Mammoth and was ultimately eliminated.
Like the previous 2nd to 6th place finishers, they stopped at the first level of the Sixth Trial Tower.
Luo Feng, who had just been teleported out, finally caught his breath. "It's hard to imagine how Brother Yu, who had been cultivating for much shorter time than me, managed to pass the entire Sixth Trial Tower."
Only by personally conquering this Trial Tower can one truly understand how monstrous Yang Yu was. After all, even the strongest player in this year's competition, Boluo, only managed to complete the entire Sixth Trial Tower.
If Luo Feng knew that Yang Yu had cleared all seven Trial Tower at that time, he would probably find it even more unbelievable.
Luo Feng felt the space around him shift, and then he appeared in the Central Plaza, where many geniuses from various Universe Country and human races looked over.
"Hmm?" Luo Feng glanced around, quickly pinpointed the location of the Ganwu Universe Country team, and walked over.
"That is Luo Feng."
"Ranked third overall, I'd never heard of him before, he's so strong."
"During this trial, many geniuses suddenly emerged, but Luo Feng is the strongest among them."
Listening to the various discussions around him, Luo Feng walked back to the genius team of the Ganwu Universe Country.
"Madman, you really scared me! You're ruthless!" Feng Lun shouted.
"Luo Feng, congratulations."
"Congratulations."
Other young people who weren't very familiar with Luo Feng also congratulated him with smiles, since 99% of the people who came here knew there was no hope of making it into the top 1000.
"Third brother," Hong and Dong Nanbiao walked over with smiles, "Congratulations! You've successfully made it to the Sixth Trial Tower, ranking third overall. That's much better than our results."
"Brother, you flatter me. My achievements are nothing compared to Brother Yu's," Luo Feng said modestly.
"Haha, I can't compare to Xiao Yu, but we have a very good chance of meeting in Chaos City this time!" Hong said with a big laugh.
"Yes, I hope that Brother Hong and I can also successfully pass the upcoming Arena Finals. It would be great if all three of us could make it into the top 1,000." Even the usually calm and composed Dong Nanbiao couldn't help but feel full of anticipation.
"Keep going, you'll definitely succeed!" Luo Feng said.
"Luo Feng, Rong Jun, Hong, Dong Nanbiao, you guys come with me." That deep voice suddenly rang in Luo Feng and the others' ears.
"Hmm?" Luo Feng and the others turned to look at one of the areas in the Central Plaza, where 1,008 powerful immortals had already stood up and were flying towards their respective Universe Country's genius teams.
Among them, the thirteen giants in scale armor instantly arrived at the Gan Wu Genius Team, shouting, "All of you, return to your lodgings!"
Rumble~~~~
The 1008 teams of geniuses, led by the immortal beings, returned to their respective residences.
First floor of Building 0825.
The 1,000 genius members of the Gan Wu Genius Team stood there, all respectful and not daring to utter a sound under the pressure of Thirteen.
"This time, our Ganwu Universe Country team performed exceptionally well!" Thirteen's voice echoed throughout the first-floor hall, a rare instance of him praising them. "Besides Luo Feng and Rong Jun ranking in the top 100 and directly qualifying for entry into the Core Layer of the Virtual Universe Company, five others ranked in the top 7300, qualifying to compete for the final 900 spots."
"Except for these seven, the Peak Genius Competition ends here for everyone else," Thirteen said, looking at the geniuses in front of him.
"You can either return to reality and leave now, or wait a while, and the Virtual Universe System will teleport you back to your respective Universe Country continents."
Thirteen said, "Luo Feng, Rong Jun, the seven of you come with me!" After saying that, he strode directly into the corridor.
Luo Feng, Hong, Dong Nanbiao, Rong Jun, and three others followed.
Just then...
Meanwhile, the Ganwu Universe Country outside the world was caught up in an unprecedented frenzy.
Not only were ordinary people going crazy, but even the supreme Ganwu Country Lord couldn't sit still. "This Luo Feng, he's actually so talented!"
Sitting on his throne, Gan Wu's gaze drifted to the far distance. "This Earth is truly amazing. Not only did it give birth to a freakish genius like Yang Yu, but it also produced Luo Feng, and second-tier figures like Hong and Dong Nanbiao. Tsk tsk."
"I'll have time to go and see Earth." Gan Wu withdrew his gaze, pondering to himself. "But there's no rush now. Let's see how far Luo Feng and his companions can go this time."
Luo Feng had no idea of the immense impact of being ranked third in the universe. He and seven others, including Hong and Dong Nanbiao, were listening to 'Thirteen's' instructions.
"Tomorrow's Qualification Battle will depend on your performance."
"Clear!"
"You five go first, Luo Feng and Rong Jun stay behind," Thirteen said. Immediately, Hong and the others respectfully left the huge room, leaving only Luo Feng and Rong Jun.
Thirteen then gave Luo Feng and Rong Jun a warning and some encouragement before letting them go back to rest.
That day, all the million eliminated geniuses were teleported away, leaving only eight people in Building 0825—the team leader Thirteen and seven young people.
The next morning.
7,300 geniuses, including Luo Feng and Hong, gathered in the Central Plaza. Suddenly, an invisible aura enveloped the entire Central Plaza, causing all 7,300 human geniuses to involuntarily submit. Everyone looked up and saw a familiar figure appear in mid-air.
He wore a seemingly ordinary but actually mysterious Green Battle Robe, his head was covered in purple scales, and he always had a faint smile on his face, but no one dared to meet his gaze when he looked over.
It was none other than the Nine Swords Venerable, who was in charge of this Genius Competition.
"Venerable!"
The 1008 powerful immortals simultaneously bowed respectfully.
"The trial is over. First of all, congratulations to the participants ranked 1st to 100th! You have earned the qualification to enter the Core Layer of Virtual Universe Company! Now, anyone who is unwilling can speak up. Virtual Universe Company will absolutely not force anyone to join!"
The Nine Swords Venerable's voice, ethereal and distant, echoed in everyone's mind.
Silence!
No one spoke.
"Good." The Nine Swords Venerable nodded in satisfaction. He then explained the rules of the upcoming competition.
As always, it's simple and straightforward.
The 7,200 trial participants ranked from 101st to 7,300th in the Trial Space will engage in one-on-one battles.
Boom~
The Central Plaza trembled slightly, and 7,200 of the original group of geniuses were suddenly teleported away, leaving only 100 human elites.
Luo Feng looked around and saw only 100 young humans. Hong and Dong Nanbiao were no longer with him; they had been teleported to participate in the Arena Finals.
Among the remaining people were the white-robed, Blood Sword -wielding Death God Bolan, the battle-ready Manka Star Youth, the genius brother and sister from Augus Planet standing together, the Mengluo Wing Race girl Ai Chen, and a boy whose face always carried a hint of shyness, and so on...
100 people!
They were all among the top 100 in the trials, Peerless Genius to enter the Core Layer of the Virtual Universe Company.
These 100 geniuses are all paying attention to others, understanding that others will become their competitors.
"There are seats over there, you can watch the live stream there first." The Nine Swords Venerable pointed to the distance, and immediately 100 large chairs and some tables appeared in a corner of the Central Plaza. The tables were laden with wine and food, while the Nine Swords Venerable himself sat somewhere in the area of 1008 powerful immortals.
'Death God' Boluo, Luo Feng and a hundred others sat down, while Luo Feng and Rong Jun chose seats next to each other. In any case, they came from the same Universe Country and were closer to each other psychologically, not to mention that they both had feelings for each other.
"Look, 3600 screens."
"It's about to begin."
"The Haoshen Race's Illusion Demon Galexi, is on that screen," some familiar Peerless Genius said to each other.
Every screen was broadcasting the upcoming match live.
Soon!
On 3600 screens, the battles began almost simultaneously! The arena battles for 900 spots officially commenced!
The winners advance, the losers are eliminated—it's all cruel!
On two of the screens, Hong and Dong Nanbiao are fighting.
Hong's opponent was a lean man, a Mental Master Controller was skilled in the Wind Origin Law.
However, under Hong's impenetrable defense and fierce spear attacks, the lean man was quickly killed and eliminated by Hong.
On the other side, Dong Nanbiao was fighting a charming woman who was clearly an illusionist, trying to defeat Dong Nanbiao using illusions combined with Soul Attack.
But Dong Nanbiao's will and state of mind were comparable to Thor's. He easily ignored the opponent's illusion, then swung his War Blade and ended the seemingly charming woman's life with a single strike.
"Are these two your relatives?" Rong Jun, sitting next to Luo Feng, asked curiously.
"Yes, we're here together to participate in the Genius Competition," Luo Feng said with a smile.
"Your clan is quite powerful. The chances of those two breaking into the top 1,000 this time are not small," Rong Jun said enviously.
"Yes, there is hope, but it also depends on their final performance."
On the screen, one genius after another was eliminated.
In less than five minutes, 3,600 people were eliminated.
I'm not reconciled!
Those who were eliminated were naturally unwilling to accept it; they had come this far, just a hair's breadth away...
The situation is completely different in the Universe Country and in the Core Layer the Virtual Universe Company.
The five giants are the five most powerful forces in the universe, and these Peerless Genius all consider themselves extraordinary, believing that only the most powerful forces in the universe are worthy of them.
If you're going to get in, then get in with the best!
Half an hour later, the second round began.
Hong and Dong Nanbiao have won against their opponents again!
Five minutes later, half of the 3,600 geniuses collapsed again, while the other half continued on.
In another half hour, after resting and getting ready, the third round will begin.
These 1800 Peerless Genius, including Hong and Dong Nanbiao, were all incredibly eager; they were only one step away from final victory...
However, only one person can enter the Core Layer of the Virtual Universe Company from each arena, while the other must be eliminated.
Luo Feng and Rong Jun were both focused on dozens of screens. For Peerless Genius with strong Mental Will, Multi-tasking Technique was easy. However, although the 100 Peerless Genius present were all focused on many screens, each of them was only focused on one screen.
That was a live stream of a battle between the Haoshen Race member 'Phantom Demon' Galesi.
"We won."
"He won just like that again." Luo Feng frowned slightly. In the three battles against Illusion Demon Galexi, in the first and second battles, Illusion Demon Galexi stood there without moving, and his opponent fell down instantly.
In the third battle... although his opponent barely managed to withstand the Soul Attack the first time, he still fell the second time.
Three victories in three battles! Illusion Demon Galexi has secured a spot.
"This Galesi is terrifying," the Savage Rong Jun said in a low voice.
"Yes, it is indeed terrifying."
Luo Feng stared intently at the screen. "A simple Soul Attack isn't usually too terrifying, but if it's combined with 'illusion techniques,' it becomes terrifying. These illusion techniques can trap people in the Illusion Realm without them even realizing it. Such terrifying illusionists... are the natural enemy of Martial Artist!"
"Hmm." Savage Rong Jun nodded slightly.
