The next morning...
Xu Ai stood in the arena. Not far from her lay a young man who had been decapitated.
The young man's body vanished the next moment, leaving only Xu Ai standing in the arena.
On the other side, Hen Ren had also finished her battle.
Her opponent was a girl. She was very cute, but Hen Ren hadn't shown the slightest mercy when killing her to prove her Dao.
The one-way protective barriers came down, and the two arenas merged into one, letting them watch the other geniuses fight together.
Bolan was the third to finish his battle, only a moment behind Hen Ren and Xu Ai. The arena expanded again.
The next winner, in fourth place, was the illusionist Jialaisi!
His illusions could also hypnotize an opponent in an instant. Unfortunately, Soul Attack couldn't kill his opponents, so he could only use psychokinesis weapons. That made him a little slower than Xu Ai and the other two.
More than ten minutes after Jialaisi finished, Luo Feng, Rong Jun, and Hong finally won their battles, one after another.
When the last protective barrier came down, all the remaining arenas merged into one enormous field.
"Congratulations to all you youngsters still standing in the arena."
Nine Swords Venerable looked down at the 100 geniuses who had won.
"First, congratulations on making it into the top 100. You can enter the Virtual Universe Company's Heaven and Earth Secret Realm. Now, we need to select the 20 best among you."
"According to the Virtual Universe System's selection, I'll announce the names of the 20 candidates."
Apart from Xu Ai, Hen Ren, and Bolan, the others were all somewhat nervous.
"Heng Ren!" That was Hen Ren's real name.
"Xu Ai!"
"Bolan!"
"Jialaisi!"
"Luo Feng!"
One name after another rang out
