Blue Star vs. Wood Source Planet: Team Battle
The second stage, the comprehension test, lasts five hours.
Very few people were eliminated in the second round, less than 100 people were eliminated, and 360 people advanced directly in the end.
Those who are recommended here by various planets are few and far between, and those with poor comprehension are extremely rare.
The second round of the comprehension test has ended. Thirteen pairs of participants failed the test, believing that their teammates dragged them down, and they need to retake the test.
Five more hours passed, and the retest for 26 people was completed. Seven people passed the test, bringing the total number of people who passed the test to 367.
From Blue Star, 10 players advanced: Jiang Yuan, Hao Yulong Zuo Yuan'er, Shao Keyu, Yan Zheng, Han Keke Zheng Shuwen, Ruan Liusu, Chen Lie, Xu Wanqing, and Luo Zhixun.
Of the 75 people from the Five Stars of the Eastern Region, 38 advanced. Among the remaining planets, two people advanced from Shuimang Star, twelve from Wood Source Planet, three from Jintian Star, and eleven from Red Flame Planet.
By this time, after more than ten hours of testing, it was already dark.
Teaching assistant Wang Jie gathered everyone together and said, "Everyone from the Eastern Star Region, it's getting dark today. The third round of trials is a talent test, which will be conducted by instruments. We will all take it first thing tomorrow morning."
The test will assess whether you possess special talents, such as martial arts aptitude, unique physique, and affinity for True Qi qi upon entering the True Qi Realm.
Of course, those recommended by your home planet must all be top-notch talents, but those with special physiques and perfect martial arts foundations are extremely rare even among top geniuses.
Ultimately, everyone's qualifications should be roughly the same, so the standard for determining who will be promoted will be based on their overall performance in each round of tests.
From now until nightfall, you can spar and compete with others in the Real Combat Hall. The entire process will be monitored by the Optical Computer. Every victory you win in the Combat Hall, especially if it's a victory against a stronger opponent, will be recorded by the Optical Computer. Finally, among those with equal test scores, the best will be selected.
I need to tell you this: the Martial Way Department doesn't like large groups of people. At most, only twenty of you will have the opportunity to meet with the Martial Way Department.
After saying these words, teaching assistant Wang Jie left.
Upon hearing that they would also need to test his physical constitution and affinity for True Qi qi, Chen Lie knew he probably had no chance.
He cultivated the Pure Yang Precious Blood, and his True Qi qi was far superior to that of ordinary people, it was still incomparable to that of top geniuses.
The so-called True Qi affinity is actually a manifestation of a person's True Qi talent. People with strong True Qi affinity may not necessarily have high talent, but people with extremely high talent will definitely have True Qi affinity that is off the charts.
Chen Lie's affinity for True Qi is actually quite high; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to cultivate to the ninth level of the Yuan Gang Alternation realm, even though he was among the top ten.
A person's talent and aptitude are reflected in many aspects, such as the Blood-Qi Stage, the True Qi Stage, and even the Primordial Essence Stage above the True Qi Stage, as well as a cultivation speed that far exceeds that of ordinary people.
Now that he knows these things will be tested with instruments, Chen Lie immediately feels that his chances of being selected are extremely slim.
After teaching assistant Wang Jie left, the 38 people who successfully advanced to the Five Stars of the Eastern Region quickly split into five camps.
On Blue Star, Jiang Yuan, the leader of the group, gathered everyone together.
"Classmates, as that teaching assistant Wang just said, you can now freely exchange ideas."
"We can take this opportunity to explore the true nature of Wood Source Planet."
Everyone nodded in agreement as soon as Jiang Yuan spoke.
Zuo Yuan'er, one of the three Great Extreme Realm of Blood-Qi, asked, "But what excuse should we use? Should we just challenge them directly like this?"
Jiang Yuan said, "I can speak with Yang Jiannan and Zhu Jingfei of Red Flame Planet. They seem to have some connections with Wood Source Planet. We can ask them to act as intermediaries."
"Okay, I think that's feasible!" Hao Yulong nodded.
The others all nodded in agreement.
"Alright, I'll go and discuss it with my friends on Red Flame Planet."
Seeing that everyone agreed, Jiang Yuan immediately set off to talk to the people on Red Flame Planet.
A few minutes later, Jiang Yuan returned from Red Flame Planet.
"I have already asked Zhu Jingfei, the fifth prince of the Great Yan Dynasty Red Flame Planet, for help. He has already spoken to the people on Wood Source Planet."
"The Wood Source Planet share the same goal as us; they also want to test our strength, so they should agree to the duel."
"That's good!" Zuo Yuan'er nodded.
"The three most powerful martial artists on Wood Source Planet are all at the Great Extreme Realm of Blood-Qi."
I just asked Red Flame Planet, and the three are Hua Jianying, Bu Feifan, and Lian Changqing, with Hua Jianying being the strongest.
"If Wood Source Planet agrees to a spar, these three will definitely make a move," Jiang Yuan said.
"Then the three of us will make it one-on-one!" Zuo Yuan'er said.
A short while later, Zhu Jingfei, the fifth prince of the Great Yan Dynasty Red Flame Planet, walked over.
He approached Jiang Yuan, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Brother Jiang!"
"Brother Zhu!"
Jiang Yuan also politely cupped his hands and said, "Brother Zhu, what is the situation on Wood Source Planet?"
Zhu Jingfei said, "Wood Source Planet is willing to spar with you, but they have made some demands."
"Oh? What are the requirements?"
"Your two sides will each send five people to compete, according to their rankings on their respective planets, first against first, fifth against fifth, for a total of five matches."
For every match lost, you must pay the opponent 10,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins.
"Okay, we agree to these requirements!" Jiang Yuan nodded.
"Alright, in that case, you may choose five people to fight!"
Jiang Yuan glanced at everyone present and began to appoint his men.
"This sparring match with Wood Source Planet will be conducted by myself, Hao Yulong, Zuo Yuan'er, Shao Keyu, and Chen Lie!"
"The five of us will make a move!"
Jiang Yuan originally wanted to name Yan Zheng, who was ranked twelfth on the Blood Qi Ranking, but then he remembered that Yan Zheng seemed to be at a disadvantage when he faced Chen Lie at Blue Star University, so he directly named Chen Lie instead.
The other four, including Chen Lie, responded one after another.
"When you fight against the people of Wood Source Planet, you must think carefully and remember your experiences. When you return to Blue Star, share them with the others. Do you all understand?"
"We understand!"
"Alright, let's go then!"
Jiang Yuan glanced at the others and said, "Those who aren't present should also try to watch from the sidelines and memorize the martial arts moves from Wood Source Planet. They'll be useful when we get back to Blue Star!"
After saying this, the group of people from Blue Star followed Zhu Jingfei to the combat zone, which was monitored by the Optical Computer.
At this moment, a woman with outstanding looks and a cold demeanor, led by Wood Source Planet, stepped forward.
"People of Blue Star, have you come here to agree to our demands?"
Zhu Jingfei immediately stepped forward and introduced them, "Brother Jiang, this is Hua Jianying from Wood Source Planet, and next to her are Bu Feifan and Lian Changqing."
Next to them were Zu Keying and Meng Zhao.
These five friends from Wood Source Planet are the five people who appeared this time.
Jiang Yuan grunted in agreement and said to Hua Jianying, who was led by Wood Source Planet, "We agree to your request!"
Hua Jianying smiled, making a clear "giggle" sound, and said, "Report the names of the five of you who will be fighting!"
At this moment, Zhu Jingfei continued to introduce the five people from Wood Source Planet: "Let me first introduce the five people from Blue Star who are going to fight."
This is Brother Jiang Yuan, Zuo Yuan'er, Hao Yulong, Shao Keyu, and finally Brother Chen Lie.
After introducing the participants as the middleman, Zhu Jingfei continued, "According to the rules, this martial arts competition will be between Jiang Yuan and Hua Jianying Bu Feifan, Zuo Yuan'er Hao Yulong, Lian Changqing and Zu Keying, Shao Keyu and Shao Keyu, and Meng Zhao and Chen Lie."
"No need for all that trouble!"
On the side of Wood Source Planet, Hua Jianying waved her hand and said indifferently, "The people of Blue Star have always been cunning. They have supported many dark forces on our Wood Source Planet to assassinate our Wood Source Planet. One of my cousins, a genius who was about to have nine times the Strength Value, died at the hands of Blue Star."
I don't trust Blue Star. I'm afraid they'll use the same "Tian Ji's horse racing" strategy from Blue Star's history to deal with us, replacing our first place with their fifth.
Therefore, for this battle, I want to use a team free-for-all format.
"Group melee? What kind of melee?" Zhu Jingfei asked.
Hua Jianying smiled and said, "Let's continue the competition according to the previous matches, with all five groups of opponents competing simultaneously."
Whoever wins the first duel can then support the rest of the planet, and so on!
"This..."
Zhu Jingfei looked at the five people from Blue Star, led by Jiang Yuan, with a troubled expression.
Jiang Yuan nodded and said, "It's just a group battle, right? We agree!"
Hua Jianying curled the corners of her lips. "Since you've agreed, let's go to the battlefield!"
Hua Jianying gave a wink to the four people from the Wood Source Planet behind her, signaling them to go on stage first.
Jiang Yuan turned and glanced at Zuo Yuan'er, Hao Yulong, Chen Lie, Shao Keyu, saying, "Everyone must be careful after you step onto the Duel Platform. The first winner, if you need to support others, must choose the right moment."
"Good!"
"Let's go on stage!"
After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he and Hua Jianying went to the combat zone together.
Chen Lie saw Meng Zhao beckon him with a provocative gesture from inside the combat zone, and he walked over expressionlessly.
Soon, the five people from Blue Star and the five people from Wood Source Planet were standing opposite their respective opponents.
Five battle notifications instantly appeared on the Optical Computer screen in the combat zone.
Blue Star Jiang Yuan meets Wood Source Planet Hua Jianying.
Blue Star Zuo Yuan'er Bu Feifan towards Wood Source Planet.
Blue Star Hao Yulong versus Wood Source Planet Lian Changqing.
Blue Star Shao Keyu versus Wood Source Planet Zu Keying.
Blue Star Chen Lie versus Wood Source Planet Meng Zhao.
Five battles were taking place simultaneously, attracting many people from the other Four-Sided Star Domain to come and watch.
"What's going on? Five matches are being crammed into the same combat zone?"
"You may not know this, but the ten people in the combat zone are from Blue Star and Wood Source Planet in the Eastern Star Region."
Ten years ago, the Star Seeker was to select the strongest planet from each of the four regions of the Canglan Star Domain— Northwest— to serve as the Permanent Councilor Star, forming a Fourteen-Star Alliance with the current Ten-Star Alliance of the Central Star Region.
There are targets in the South, West, and North Star Domains, but the strongest star in the Eastern Star Region, Red Flame Planet, is internally divided, so the position of Permanent Councilor Star falls to the slightly inferior Blue Star and Wood Source Planet.
After all, these are Permanent Councilor Star positions, and neither planet is willing to concede to the other. They have been vying for power for ten years, and they will fight each other at any opportunity.
And here comes the opportunity! These two stars are fighting again!
"No wonder, in the Permanent Council Star Contest, who is willing to back down?"
Amidst the discussions among the people of the Five Star Domain, the battle between Blue Star and Wood Source Planet began.
Jiang Yuan and Hua Jianying made the first move.
The two attacked almost simultaneously, and a crimson rainbow of light shot dozens of feet into the sky, illuminating the entire battle area in red.
With a loud "boom!"
Jiang Yuan and Hua Jianying exchanged a punch, the immense force creating a shockwave that caused many onlookers near the battle area to involuntarily step back.
Meanwhile, the battles between Zuo Yuan'er and Bu Feifan, and between Hao Yulong and Lian Changqing, have also begun.
Three beams of blood-red light instantly rose up, their powerful aura causing those below the Great Extreme Realm of Blood-Qi to tremble in fear.
At the outermost edge of the combat zone, Chen Lie and Meng Zhao also started fighting.
Meng Zhao suddenly erupted, throwing a heavy punch at Chen Lie.
"You scum of Blue Star, prepare to die!"
After Meng Zhao's punch, his moves became even more compact, combining parrying and striking to relentlessly press Chen Lie Chen Lie, attempting to overwhelm him with a fierce attack and prevent him from retaliating.
However, with Chen Lie's current strength, even ordinary Blood-Qi Transforming into Rainbow Realm cultivators are no match for him, let alone Meng Zhao from Wood Source Planet.
As soon as they exchanged blows, Chen Lie realized that Meng Zhao was at the eighth level of Blood Tempering, and that he could end the battle in the blink of an eye if he wanted to.
However, Chen Lie remembered Lei Jinglong's instructions to try his best to investigate the martial arts of Wood Source Planet.
Although Chen Lie won't need to use the martial arts of Wood Source Planet, people at other Blood-Qi Stage on Blue Star should be able to use them.
The Permanent Council Star Contest requires the participation of more than ten people at the Blood-Qi Stage, each of whom can contribute one point. The rules are not yet clear, but it is estimated that each person can only win one match, and they cannot play a decisive role.
After withstanding hundreds of moves from Meng Zhao, Chen Lie had a general understanding of the martial arts techniques of Wood Source Planet, so he didn't waste any more time with Meng Zhao.
He threw a punch, and golden energy instantly spread out.
With a loud "boom!"
Meng Zhao felt an irresistible force descend upon him. He cried out "Ah!" and was directly knocked out of the combat zone, instantly losing his fighting ability.
On the light screen in the battle zone, the item "Chen Lie vs. Meng Zhao" instantly displayed the indicator "Chen Lie".
This scene stunned the onlookers, who were all shocked.
"Are they from Wood Source Planet? Or Blue Star? Wow, that's amazing!"
"Indeed powerful, but why is his blood and qi golden? Does he have alien blood?"
"Yeah, normal humans have red blood and qi, what's with the gold? Maybe this person really does have alien blood."
After his victory, Chen Lie looked at the remaining four matches. He saw that Shao Keyu and Zu Keying were evenly matched and chose not to intervene in that battle, but instead looked at the other matches.
In the very center of the battle zone, Jiang Yuan faced off against Hua Jianying. Blood streaks crisscrossed between their attacks. Chen Lie instantly realized that both of them were cultivating the second acupoint, the Earth Aperture level. It was not appropriate for him to interfere, so he turned his attention to the other two battles, the battle between Zuo Yuan'er and Hao Yulong.
