Zhang Junbao wasn't too concerned about killing Priscilla. However, the points Zhang Junbao brought him were considerable. Seeing his points skyrocket, Zhang Junbao was very happy.
"Not bad, not bad at all. It gave me a whopping 100,000 points, instantly propelling my ranking into the top 10,000. Just how many people did this guy kill?"
If there were more good people like this, that would be really great. Killing these powerful individuals is still a faster way to gain points.
Zhang Junbao smiled and nodded in satisfaction.
There are still good people in the universe, and here he was, having met one himself. Seeing how hard it was for him to kill people one by one to accumulate points, Zhang Junbao gave Priscilla a thumbs up from the bottom of his heart.
Priscilla did not put any pressure on Zhang Junbao. After all, for a martial artist with a powerful domain, more than 10,000 Star Level with huge differences in domains were really no more powerful than 10,000 chickens. They could all be killed with a single strike.
"But my current ranking is only within the top 10,000! Just how crazy are the other people?!"
After all, with Zhang Junbao's current points, it's equivalent to hundreds of thousands of people indirectly dying at his hands, a truly terrifying number.
"Next target: I've wiped out everyone in this area, so let's move on to somewhere further away."
Zhang Junbao closed his eyes and carefully sensed the distant aura flowing into his mind like threads.
Within the city, powerful auras gathered together.
"West!"
Zhang Junbao opened his eyes, stepped onto the Arc Blade Disc, and quickly flew towards the city.
The Ninth Prince, who was nearly strangled to death by Priscilla, struggled for a long time. After swearing a poisonous oath on behalf of his father, the master of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, he finally convinced Priscilla that the Ninth Prince did not know Zhang Junbao. Therefore, Priscilla decided to investigate herself.
"Quickly find out who this ' Daoist Sanfeng ' really is!"
When did such a powerful genius appear in our Black Dragon Mountain Empire? I, the prince, had no idea.
He must be rewarded! He has made a name for our Black Dragon Mountain Empire; he deserves a hefty reward. Damn it, how many realms has our Black Dragon Mountain Empire not produced a genius capable of breaking into the top ten thousand of the Ganwu Universe Country?
Most importantly, it dealt a heavy blow to that annoying guy Elvis. Just because he's a prince of the Ganwu Universe Country and has a powerful father, does he? Laozi's always mocking me. I've been fed up with him for ages!
"That's great, Priscilla has been killed too. Let's see how many decent geniuses the Ganwu Sacred Land has left! Hahaha..." The Ninth Prince was able to finally hold his head high thanks to Zhang Junbao, so in his eyes, Zhang Junbao was now his closest person!
If the Ninth Prince knew that even his Third Brother was killed by Zhang Junbao, he would probably go straight to Zhang Junbao's doorstep to express his gratitude.
Inside the main hall of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire's imperial palace, the king, Black Dragon, was overjoyed. His strength ranked low among the vassal kings of the Ganwu Universe Country, and he was often suppressed by the kings of other empires.
Originally, every Genius Battle was when he suffered the most, but unexpectedly, Zhang Junbao suddenly appeared and killed the holy son of the Ganwu Sacred Land.
That's a sacred land directly under the Ganwu Universe Country! The geniuses there are all personally mentored by Immortal Expert. Almost Immortal who can be mentored in the Ganwu Sacred Land are stronger than Black Dragon.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations! The investigation has been completed. This ' Daoist Sanfeng ' is a citizen of my Black Dragon Mountain Empire. His real name is Zhang Junbao. He comes from the Silver Blue Empire. He previously used the title ' Daoist Sanfeng ' to wreak havoc in the Killing Field!"
He also has three brothers, all of whom are equally powerful, and all four of them have earned the title of Star Level ' Giant Axe Warrior '!
The first round of selection has only just begun, and their rankings are rapidly improving. They will surely bring His Majesty a pleasant surprise soon!
"Good, good, good, they are all my good subjects. Continue to monitor their movements and keep a close eye on them."
Hahaha, Zhang Junbao killed the Holy Son of the Ganwu Sacred Land! Let's see if those old guys dare to be arrogant in front of me again! My people killed the Holy Son they painstakingly nurtured, and in a decisive and swift manner! Let's see where they put their faces now!
Immediately, notify all star systems and inhabited planets within the star field. Spread this message so that all citizens of the empire know that this is the shared glory of our Black Dragon Mountain Empire!
Congratulations to His Majesty!
This is a carnival belonging to the entire Black Dragon Mountain Empire.
The ruler of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire was incredibly excited, but back at Zhang Junbao's home on Earth, they were much calmer. Babata and Feitian, who couldn't enter the competition area, also projected a phantom image, watching the live stream with Zhang Junbao's family.
"It's been so long, and he's only made it into the top 10,000. It's too easy for Master. That so-called Holy Son is so weak, yet he still has the nerve to jump out. He's kind enough to give Master points! He even brought so many underlings along to deliver them. He's truly a skilled tool!" Feitian said proudly. She knew very well that Zhang Junbao's strength was far beyond his current level. For him, the top 10,000 was not even a warm-up.
She's been exposed to a lot of Earth culture lately, and even her speech is now filled with internet slang.
Babata looked worried because he saw that Hong and Thunder God were both doing relatively well, but Luo Feng's ranking was pitifully low.
"What is Luo Feng doing? Ten days have passed, and his ranking is still below 100 million. Apart from occasionally killing a few people, he spends all his time comprehending secret techniques. Is he treating the Genius Battle as a free Killing Field?" Luo Feng's father said worriedly.
" Luo Feng is preparing for the battles to come. He's keeping a low profile for now, and he'll make a splash later!" Babata explained.
"Wow, Uncle Hong and Thunder God Thor's rankings have risen so fast! They're both in the top 100,000!" Luo Feng's son, Luo Hai, exclaimed.
Hong and Zhang Junbao adopted similar strategies, except that Zhang Junbao collected secret techniques, while Hong collected experiences. Every memorable experience made Hong's illusions more real. His marksmanship contained the flow of time, which could evoke the deepest memories in the enemy's heart, making the enemy deeply trapped and unable to extricate themselves.
A martial artist like Hong is extremely terrifying. Illusionist are already very rare, requiring exceptional talent. Martial artists who can cast illusions are even rarer. Other Illusionist are often weak in close combat and are easily killed once someone gets close. The most important thing in dealing with them is to break the illusion.
However, Hong's close combat skills are equally formidable. Often, the few who manage to break through his illusions and choose to engage in close combat are mercilessly slaughtered by Hong.
"Wow, Dad's ranking is rising! So fast, he's within the top ten million!" Luo Feng's son reminded him after seeing the ranking change.
" Luo Feng has finally started to take action!"
"One hundred thousand! Dad, you're so fast!"
Wherever a peerless genius emerges, it brings immense benefits to the entire empire. Both mid-level and low-level empires attach great importance to it!
For the Ganwu Universe Country, the elimination rounds were merely an appetizer; while they were good for warming up the palate, they weren't the main focus. Only in the second round of the arena matches would they truly take it seriously.
The geniuses selected after the arena competition will represent the Ganwu Universe Country in competitions against geniuses from other Universe Country; that will be the true moment to showcase the nation's strength.
As he killed more and more powerful opponents, Zhang Junbao's ranking rose rapidly.
9235 people!
7932 people
4907 people!
1549 people!
1014 people!
On the 15th day of the qualifiers, the competition was exactly halfway through, and the number of participants had decreased to less than 10% of the original number.
The first few days of the battle were exceptionally fierce, with countless major battles erupting. The weaker ones were constantly eliminated in the early stages, and those who have managed to hold on until now are all formidable individuals!
In the Forty-Ninth World Zone, howling winds and the stench of blood filled the air. The once magnificent city was now a ruin, destroyed by battle.
In the city, most people dared not move around recklessly, as any fight that broke out would be met with an attack from others.
Often, before either side can determine a winner, they are surrounded and killed by others who arrive on the scene. As for who gets the kill and points, it all depends on luck.
In the Forty-Ninth World Zone, Zhang Junbao strolled leisurely through the broken streets. The battles of the past few days had not caused him much damage.
However, his path was soon blocked by someone.
"That's the ' Daoist Sanfeng '?"
Killing over ten thousand weaklings single-handedly is something to brag about for so long? Any top-tier expert in any field could do that!
A young man with long, flowing hair, dressed in white, walked slowly over, holding a long spear on his shoulder, appearing very unrestrained and carefree.
"I wonder what others will say about my deeds if I kill you? I wanted to kill you back then, but then I thought, you're quite capable, so I decided to keep you around until you've accumulated enough points and become stronger before killing you. But you seem too leisurely, you haven't actively hunted other strong individuals, which made me impatient, so I had to come and get points from you."
You've disappointed me so much!
The long-haired youth shook his head, looking utterly disappointed.
Zhang Junbao was curious about the arrogant young man's manner, which seemed to suggest that Zhang Junbao was killing too slowly.
"You haven't disappointed me; you've given me points yourself, haven't you?"
See, fishing is actually not bad, right? There are always some strong people who like to prove that they are better than others, so they will take the initiative to go fishing.
"Isn't that right, Selote, ranked seventy-eighth? Am I right?"
Zhang Junbao smiled. Although he didn't actively seek out others, there were always people who disliked him and wanted to teach him how to kill.
Over time, Zhang Junbao simply started using himself as bait, luring those bloodthirsty fish to take the bait.
"Oh? So you've been underestimated. You're ranked over a thousand, and you didn't even run away when you saw me. I wonder if it's confidence or ignorance?" The long-haired youth Selote, was amused by Zhang Junbao's words.
"Ranking seventy-eighth isn't very high, but it's acceptable. After all, even a small gain is still a gain," Zhang Junbao said helplessly.
"Arrogant, I'm starting to like you. This is the first time I've met someone even more arrogant than me! The number one player in this World Zone can directly obtain one of the thousand spots in the Ganwu Universe Country. It's a pity that the points in a city are too few; even if you kill them all, it's impossible to get first place."
"Hurry up and come to your death. After I kill you, I still need to cross the city and hunt down experts in other cities." Selote picked at his ear with one hand, urging Zhang Junbao to hurry up and die, as if killing him would be effortless.
"You're quite adorable. How about we follow my rules? If you explain the secret technique to me, I'll spare your life. After all, ranking in the seventies isn't easy," Zhang Junbao said.
"How dare you! You've successfully angered me!"
"I come from the ' Spear Dragon Empire,' a mid-level cosmic empire. Our ruler Spear Dragon, has slain countless Immortal with his long spear. I received his guidance, so how could I possibly fail to become the number one in this World Zone?"
Selote's eyes changed, and he thrust his long spear forward, unleashing an incomparably sharp spear intent, brimming with fighting spirit.
"Your marksmanship is quite good. I'm determined to have your secret technique!" Zhang Junbao said with a smile.
Once in battle mode, Selote became a completely different person, falling silent. He unleashed his Ninefold Domain, the rampant killing intent combined with the sharpness of his metal element easily tearing apart the surrounding buildings!
" Domain of Gold?"
"This domain is still somewhat inferior to Luo Feng Feng's. Although the killing intent is good, it's not strong enough! Why not try my Domain of Gold!"
As he spoke, Zhang Junbao also opened his domain, but it was not his original Space-Time Domain, but a metal-attribute domain!
"How is this possible? Aren't you a light attribute user? Why do you have a metal attribute domain, and it's even reached the Ninth Level of Domain!"
Selote was startled; his domain was actually being suppressed by Zhang Junbao's domain.
"Who says that one cannot master the Domain of Gold with the Light attribute? Although it is indeed more difficult than with this attribute, it is not impossible."
Young man, read more books and newspapers, stop indulging in wishful thinking. It's just mastering other elemental powers, what's so special about that?
Zhang Junbao not only learned the power of the earth attribute domain from Hanta of the ' Earth Walker Race ' at the beginning, but also mastered the characteristics of the metal attribute domain from other geniuses. In addition, he fought with Luo Feng for a long time, so he naturally knew very well what the Domain of Gold was like.
With his profound understanding of the Law, he directly unleashed the Domain of Gold power not inherent to his nature.
In fact, Zhang Junbao has a very high affinity for the Domain of Gold. After all, metal is extremely strong and yang, and Taiji is divided into yin and yang. It also has the incomparably strong power of Yang Taiji, which coincides with the Domain of Gold!
Selote recalled his teacher's teachings: in this world, there are always some geniuses who act in unexpected ways, and in their presence, any existing rules are meaningless.
