In another city in the Forty-Ninth World Zone, Zhang Junbao raised an eyelid slightly as he looked at the persistent silver-haired youth before him.
"The number one in this World Zone, ' Silver Phantom,' since you're already number one, why bother coming to me? Even if you kill me, your ranking won't increase!"
"' Daoist Sanfeng,' you've already made it into the top ten, making you my prey! I didn't expect you to reach second place so quickly without me even noticing."
Let me tell you, I have traveled to every city in the world and challenged every master. Of the current top ten, you are the only one I haven't defeated. The others are all my defeated opponents.
I have obsessive-compulsive disorder; everything has to be done perfectly!
After I defeat you, I will carve your name onto my weapon!
The young man, known as the ' Silver Phantom,' was surrounded by two rings. The rings were densely covered with names, except for one empty space, which was reserved for Zhang Junbao's name.
"See? Don't you think that leaving a small blank space on my weapon is a serious imperfection?"
"Don't even think about struggling. If I kill you, my preliminary round of the Genius Battle will be perfect!" A morbidly persistent smile appeared on the silver-haired youth's face.
"Obsessive-compulsive disorder is an illness, and it needs to be treated!"
Zhang Junbao shook his head helplessly. He couldn't understand the silver-haired youth's obsession with engraving his opponent's name all over his weapon. Leaving some blank spaces, giving readers endless room for imagination, wouldn't that be better?
Sometimes, imperfection itself is a kind of beauty, like the Venus with her missing arms.
That being said, the battle still needs to be taken seriously.
The fact that he was able to reach the top spot in this World Zone is enough to prove the strength of this young man. He has enough reason to boast about his obsessive-compulsive disorder. In fact, many powerful martial artists have certain special quirks. A person who is a jack-of-all-trades and master of none is unlikely to become a true strongman.
His eyes revealed a kind of obsessive, even fanatical, persistence. These are the most terrifying people because they never know what giving up means. Once they set a goal, they must achieve it no matter what.
The silver-haired youth boldly declared war. At this moment, in a short period of time, many experts had gathered in shopping malls, streets, and residential buildings around them, watching the battle quietly from thousands of meters away.
This battle between two super-strong individuals will likely be the most epic showdown in this World Zone.
The world's number one and number two strongest warriors are finally about to clash! Countless powerful individuals are filled with excitement; how could they possibly miss such a battle?
As the silver-haired youth said, among the top ten in this World Zone, apart from Zhang Junbao, the rest are all his defeated opponents. Even though they lost, they can still maintain their positions in the top ten, which shows how strong they are.
Just how terrifying was the silver-haired youth who defeated them all?
"Anyone who dared to speak to me like that has been killed by me, whether in the Virtual Universe or in reality."
"Hmm, that's quite domineering. It seems you need someone to show you the dangers of the universe. Do you know what someone like you is called in my hometown?"
"Are there people like me in your hometown too?" The silver-haired youth's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but ask.
"Yeah, there are quite a few. We usually call them 'bratty kids.' Bratty kids aren't scary; a good beating will fix them!"
You're kidding me!
"No, I'm just stating a fact." Zhang Junbao shook his head, indicating that he wasn't playing a trick on him.
However, the silver-haired youth was completely enraged. Although he didn't know what "brat" meant, it was definitely not a good word.
His figure vanished instantly, and the next moment, a silver light streaked across the spot where Zhang Junbao was.
" The Space Origin Law? No wonder you have the right to be arrogant."
Zhang Junbao appeared at another location, saw a single strand of his hair had fallen out, and praised it.
"Some say he can even master Law of other attributes. It seems to be true. That move he used to escape just now was a technique from the Wind Origin Law!" The silver-haired youth became increasingly excited. He looked at Zhang Junbao as if he were looking at a large, fantastical toy, his eyes filled with pure longing, wanting to understand Zhang Junbao and then destroy him.
Zhang Junbao was right. The silver-haired youth in front of him was different from other genius martial artists. He did not have the Bloodthirsty madness of other martial artists, nor did he have their greed for victory. What he possessed was a simple and pure desire.
Perhaps it was this purest desire that allowed him to unleash his extraordinary spatial talent to its fullest potential.
Missing his first attack, the silver-haired youth's figure flickered repeatedly, leaving several afterimages in the air.
"It's actually the Ten Thousand Line Flow technique! This kind of spatial movement technique is really popular in the universe!"
Martial arts combat employs Combat Secret Technique, such as Hong's Illusionist Combat Secret Technique and Thunder God's Punishment Lightning. Even the nine realms of the Yan Shen Armament controlled by Luo Feng are a form of Combat Secret Technique cultivation.
And defense also has its secret techniques.
As for movement techniques, Zhang Junbao possessed a secret movement technique called " Black Dragon Ascending Heaven Steps " during his martial arts period. Spirit Reader also have secret techniques for flying by riding on spiritual weapons.
The so-called understanding of the Universe Origin Law is to comprehend the rules governing the universe and then apply them flexibly, thus evolving into secret methods.
The relationship between esoteric methods and the Universe Origin Law is like the relationship between word problems in mathematics and the Law addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Understanding the basic Law operation is not enough; one must also be able to apply them in practice to achieve their true effect.
Similarly, without mastering the corresponding Universe Laws, even if a secret technique is placed in front of you, you can only stare blankly.
This 'secret method' is the way to maximize the power of the Origin Law!
The " Ten Thousand Line Flow " is one of the secret flying techniques of Spirit Reader. This flying technique is widely known in the universe, and many Immortal know about it. However, its widespread popularity does not mean that it is weak.
" The Ten Thousand Line Flow " is a spatial-attribute flight technique, which can be divided into:
First layer: ' One Line Flow '
Second layer: ' Nine Line Flow '
Third layer: ' Hundred Line Flow '
Fourth layer: ' Ten Thousand Line Flow '
Even the legendary highest level of ' Teleportation ' is a top-tier Space Secret Technique that even King Level Immortal might not be able to master.
This demonstrates just how powerful the Ten Thousand Line Flow truly is.
The silver-haired youth's newly revealed identity allowed him to leave seven silhouettes in the space, proving that his " Ten Thousand Line Flow " technique had approached the second level, the " Nine Line Flow " technique.
Don't underestimate the second level. Luo Feng, who possesses the Golden Horned Beast Clone and is a natural-born darling of the Gold-Space attribute, has been learning the " Ten Thousand Line Flow " for several years, but he still hasn't reached the requirements of the third level, " Hundred Line Flow ".
The silver-haired youth's ability to approach the second level already demonstrates his immense strength.
Looking directly at the seven illusory figures, it was impossible to distinguish between them as real and fake; they appeared to be completely real Clone. If one thought that only one of them was real and the others were fake, then one would be sorely mistaken. How could a top-tier Space Secret Technique be so easily broken?
A smile appeared on the silver-haired youth's face. With his extraordinary understanding of the Space Law, no one in this World Zone could rival him or keep up with his movements, meaning that other geniuses could only be slaughtered by him.
Zhang Junbao's face showed a serious expression.
"Since that's the case, I'll take it seriously too."
Serious Series: Seriously Jumping Around!
Although Zhang Junbao spoke seriously, he was actually quite playful.
Suddenly, the silver-haired youth saw hundreds of Zhang Junbao Clone before him, completely identical to the real Zhang Junbao, and they were crushing towards him.
"What... what's going on?"
Facing Zhang Junbao, the silver-haired youth felt for the first time as if he had become an ant, with no chance of winning and no possibility of ever surpassing him.
Without a doubt, Zhang Junbao completely crushed the silver-haired youth's seven Clone, and his figure was also sent flying by Zhang Junbao, crashing into more than a dozen buildings before finally coming to a stop.
"What exactly is this ' Daoist Sanfeng '? Why did I see hundreds of Clone just now?"
Is this also Space Secret Technique? Impossible, no Star Level being could do this!
"Could it be an illusion? But why are we also trapped in an illusion?"
In the distance, the same thought simultaneously arose in the minds of the onlookers, lingering there.
The silver-haired youth collapsed to the ground, letting the falling Stone hit him, like a salted fish that had lost its dreams.
"Why? I'm the strongest, it's impossible..."
Although his obsession was strong, once his confidence was shattered, he was also most prone to falling into delusion. Zhang Junbao was like a mountain standing in front of him, insurmountable.
"This mentality is really bad! It seems that being too talented is also a problem. He has never encountered setbacks since childhood, and everything he does goes smoothly. As soon as he encounters a problem, he becomes so dejected."
While a martial artist's mindset cannot make one instantly powerful, it allows them to quickly control their emotions when faced with setbacks, which can be described as a kind of mental strength.
No one can go through life without experiencing setbacks. In fact, encountering difficulties earlier might be better. What goes around comes around, and if you wait too long, the price might be unbearable.
"Impossible! I am the strongest genius!" The silver-haired youth's eyes were filled with madness, his eyes bloodshot, and the two rings of his divine weapon emitted a silver light as they attacked Zhang Junbao.
However, as it approached Zhang Junbao, it began to spin around his body, but it could not hit Zhang Junbao.
"What? Why is this happening?"
"You are just incredibly talented, but you don't understand what space is at all."
Shattering, penetrating, speed?
Is this space?
No, space is everywhere. As long as matter exists, there is space.
The so-called acceleration using space is merely the absence of obstructions in outer space. However, the space within my domain is not something you can control.
Before Zhang Junbao, two rings trembled incessantly, as if trying to break free from the constraints of space, but they could not do so.
The silver-haired youth discovered that Zhang Junbao had not fixed his telekinetic weapons in place, but rather created countless tiny spatial vortexes around them. Once the rings broke through their original positions, countless vortexes would guide them in another direction.
Unless he can fully understand the patterns of the spatial vortex created by Zhang Junbao, he can only escape by completely shattering the space with overwhelming force.
"I never intended to compete for first place. What's so fun about qualifying early? There are countless geniuses in the entire Ganwu Universe Country that I haven't seen yet."
The secret techniques they possess, though perhaps not powerful, often contain unexpected ideas. By utilizing the ideas of countless geniuses and integrating the strengths of various schools, I have been able to perfect my secret techniques.
As they spoke, a magnificent sound resounded throughout the world.
"The qualifiers are entering their final countdown, 60...59...58...57..."
In the final countdown, all World Zone descended into endless chaos, and many martial artists were extremely anxious.
"I'm still a little short!"
"I was ranked 999 just now, but now I'm 1001. I'm not satisfied!"
"It's too late! Give me your points, and I can get into the top 1000! I'll reward you handsomely once I get out!"
"You're talking nonsense!"
"Kill them..."
Zhang Junbao looked at the silver-haired youth in front of him but did not make a move.
As he said, first place isn't fun, and qualifying early is not what he wanted at all.
"Kill me! Go ahead and kill me!" the silver-haired youth roared madly. He felt humiliated. Zhang Junbao didn't take him seriously at all, let alone the number one spot he treasured.
"Forget it, save your energy. Think about your future. You really need to get your obsessive-compulsive disorder treated."
The silver-haired youth stared at the partially blank telekinetic weapon, feeling as if a million ants were crawling all over his heart, causing him immense distress!
"Ah...!!!"
The way to deal with obsessive-compulsive disorder is to constantly present imperfections to them, even etch them into their minds. Over time, they will accept them, and there will be no need for so much fussiness.
"5...4...3...2...1! Teleport."
The preliminary rounds of the Peak Genius Tournament have officially concluded!
