"I... I beat the game! I really beat it!"
At this moment, countless geniuses had the same thought: ever since Zhang Junbao stepped into the seventh level, no one believed that such a test could be passed.
However, Zhang Junbao proved to them time and time again that the reason they couldn't get through was simply because they weren't strong enough.
"Hahaha, I told Junbao, you'd definitely conquer the Trial Tower! Now you see! In this vast universe, only Junbao is invincible!"
Among those present, the one who was most convinced that Zhang Junbao could pass the test was Thunder God. Although it was difficult for him to judge the true strength of the final Insect King, it did not diminish his trust in Zhang Junbao.
"As expected of my old classmate and senior brother, in this battle, he demonstrated his understanding of the Law to the fullest. It's really unfair to Junbao, who has never gone all out in all these years of sparring with us." Luo Feng said with a smile, genuinely happy for Zhang Junbao.
This moment belongs to the glory of the Ganwu Universe Country, the glory of the Black Dragon Empire, the glory of the Milky Way Galaxy, and even more so to Earthling. At this moment, they stand at the pinnacle of the universe.
Rong Jun stood beside him, mouth agape, speechless. At this moment, this arrogant Savage was truly devastated. If Bolan had shown Rong Jun the gap in their abilities, Luo Feng had shown him the meaning of fighting desperately, then Zhang Junbao had shown Rong Jun utter despair.
"My ambition is to become the number one Genius Battle in the universe. Even knowing how terrifying Bolan is, I am still able to fight him. But now, Junbao, you have truly shown me the vastness of the universe."
Very well, from today onwards, you will become my target. If the Star Level is not enough, then it will be the Universe Level, the Domain Lord Level, the World Lord Level, and even Immortal. If I cannot even surpass you, how can I fulfill my own dream!
Bolan's blood dripped onto the ground, but he was completely unaware of it. He cared about Rong Jun, Bolan he still didn't care about Luo Feng. All he could see was his own future.
Zhang Junbao, however, stood like a mountain in Bolan's path, completely blocking his view. If Bolan wanted to continue, he would have to confront this mountain of Zhang Junbao.
Is this guy really from the same era as them?
Was it a stroke of luck or a tragedy for these geniuses to live in the same era as Zhang Junbao?
"We cleared it, we really cleared all the levels. When the Insect King finally appeared, even I felt a deep despair. Such terrifying power filled me with fear. But you, you single-handedly annihilated the Insect King."
I'll remember that name, Zhang Junbao. The Genius Battle should have been my moment to make a name for myself in the universe and shine brightly Milky Way.
I have surpassed countless geniuses in the universe, but I never expected that at the last moment, I would be trampled under your feet.
My sharpness, my backbone, my pride—all are stirring within me! There's still a long way to go; this is merely our first step into the universe. We may not achieve Immortal, but we will eventually fade away. Who knows what the future holds?
Our struggle has only just begun!
In his heart, Bolan issued a challenge to Zhang Junbao, marking the first time he had challenged someone as a pursuer.
At this moment, all the millions of geniuses present turned their gazes to the center of the square, to the man who had just appeared, Zhang Junbao!
One person can overwhelm the geniuses of an entire cosmic era, leaving them breathless; that is the extent of his power.
"Thirteen, congratulations! Your Ganwu Universe Country hasn't had a kid break into the top 20 for over a hundred sessions. I never expected it to be so terrifying this time, with three of them appearing all at once."
Rong Jun ranked 11th, Luo Feng ranked 3rd, but the most incredible was Zhang Junbao, who actually cleared the entire Trial Tower, making him undoubtedly number one!
"Hahaha, before the trial began, everyone said that Bolan from the Noah Universe Country would be number one, but who would have thought that Zhang Junbao from your Ganwu Universe Country would emerge in the end? Thirteen, the future of your Ganwu Universe Country is limitless, so you'd better treat us to a good meal this time!"
"Hahaha, Mosuo is right. Of the 1008 Universe Country here, your Universe Country occupies three of the top 20 spots, and even the number one spot is yours. Are you trying to kill everyone else? We won't be satisfied until we extort you properly!"
The thousands of Immortal around them all chatted and joked with the Scaled Giant Thirteen. The performance of the Ganwu Universe Country in this Genius Battle was truly astonishing.
"Didn't that brother and sister from August Planet also make it into the top 20?" The Scaled Giant Thirteen couldn't help but smile.
A genius represents the future hope of a Universe Country. While this may not be an absolute truth, it is enough to give the Ganwu Universe Country hope.
The news of Zhang Junbao's breakthrough in the Trial Tower spread throughout the entire universe in less than a minute. This was a great event for the Human Race in the universe, and naturally, countless people were paying attention.
A super genius with terrifying potential has been born, and no force will let his information go unnoticed.
The Ganwu Universe Country, the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, the Silver Blue Empire, the Milky Way Galaxy, and the two star systems recently bestowed upon Zhang Junbao and his companions—everyone was completely engulfed in endless revelry.
To break through the Trial Tower —what an honor!
Since the Virtual Universe Company began hosting the Genius Battle, countless eras have passed, and this is the first time someone has cleared the Trial Tower. This glory will forever belong to the Ganwu Universe Country. When people talk about the Genius Battle, they inevitably mention Zhang Junbao, the genius from the Ganwu Universe Country.
At this moment, whether it was the Ganwu Universe Country, the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, or the Silver Blue Empire, all inhabited planets were decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. From the rulers to the citizens, and even slaves, everyone was granted special permission to participate in this grand event, which had not been seen in billions of years.
Standing in the plaza, seeing countless geniuses looking up at him, Zhang Junbao smiled. This moment belonged to him, a moment of glory.
Zhang Junbao hadn't expected that when he finally cleared the level, the points from the Zerg Queen on the first floor would also be counted towards his score.
Perhaps the Trial Tower believes that it has already killed the Insect King killed the Queen, and has thus accumulated points.
Even more terrifying is that the final Insect King, a single one, has ten times the total points of all the trials in the Seventh Trial Tower combined.
Therefore, Zhang Junbao's final score was 77777777000 (no need to count, eight sevens), rather than 7777777000 (seven sevens) from passing seven Trial Tower. In this way, the Insect King was the Eighth Trial Tower alone.
In front of Building 0825, the Scaled Giant Thirteen finished explaining the next task. Contestants who did not make it into the top 7300 would be directly teleported back to their respective continents in the Virtual Universe Network.
Zhang Junbao, Luo Feng, and Rong Jun, being among the top 100, qualified to directly enter the core of the Virtual Universe Company.
" Zhang Junbao, Luo Feng, Rong Jun, the three of you come with me."
Zhang Junbao and the other two followed Thirteen into a luxurious office. Although Thirteen, the scaled giant, usually had a stern face when facing others, he was all smiles at this moment.
There was no way around it; Zhang Junbao and his group had really earned him a lot of face this time, allowing him to hold his head high in front of all the Immortal leading the 1008 Universe Country. Even the ruler of the Ganwu Universe Country sent a message immediately, affirming his work.
If Thirteen still doesn't give Zhang Junbao and the others a friendly look after all this, then he must be out of his mind.
"First, third, eleventh! You did very well this time!"
"Thanks to His Majesty's bestowal, and also to the Lord Thirteen minister's excellent leadership," Zhang Junbao said. This was not flattery; the insights into the Space-Time Law bestowed upon Ganwu Country Lord had indeed been of great help.
Zhang Junbao was well-versed in human nature and knew that a few words would win the favor of the Immortal Thirteen, the leader of the group. Why bother putting on airs and acting arrogant? He was never an arrogant person to begin with.
"Haha, the King is extremely concerned about you, so it's only right that we thank him. As for me, I'm just the leader, nothing to mention."
Despite this, Thirteen's smile widened even more. Although he knew Zhang Junbao was just being polite, his words still pleased Thirteen. He had also played a part in Zhang Junbao's success in passing the Trial Tower.
" Luo Feng, Rong Jun, your performance so far is nothing special, but don't underestimate these cosmic geniuses. The Trial Tower is actually a disadvantage for Illusionist and martial artists, but in one-on-one combat, their strength can be fully utilized."
"You must all remember this: you must not be careless in the slightest, or you might become someone else's stepping stone!"
Thirteen offered a few words of encouragement, but also dampened their arrogance; the Genius Battle wasn't over yet, and anything was possible.
"Yes, I will heed your teachings!"
" Lord Thirteen, I have some insights from this Trial Tower Trial Tower," Zhang Junbao said.
"Go ahead, don't worry about the time. The next Arena Final Battle isn't your business. If you haven't come out before the next round starts, I'll call you then," the Lord Thirteen said with a smile.
"Thank you, sir!"
Zhang Junbao clearly sensed that the Lord Thirteen's attitude had changed significantly from the beginning.
Breaking through the Trial Tower would mean a significant rise in Zhang Junbao's status.
He did have many insights this time, especially in the last Trial Tower, where the powerful opponent put him under considerable pressure.
This desperate struggle against different races allowed Zhang Junbao to fully analyze his secret techniques and gain a deeper understanding.
On the plaza, the million geniuses had dispersed. They were all top geniuses from their respective Universe Country, but this Genius Battle had made them realize how terrifying universe geniuses could be.
"Gentlemen, the Star Level is just the beginning. In the future, we may have a chance to catch up with them. The Ganwu Secret Realm is also a top-level cultivation holy land for the Human Race. Before reaching Immortal, it will eventually wither away!"
All the glory and disgrace we experience now will become stepping stones for our future progress. A temporary setback does not mean a lifetime of failure!
"Even within the Ganwu Secret Realm, we still need to support each other!" Thunder God's impassioned speech also attracted a group of geniuses from the Ganwu Universe Country.
" Thunder God, I heard you and Zhang Junbao are from the same place. Could we tell you more about him?"
"Haha, Junbao is my senior brother. If you want to know about him, you'd better be prepared! Come on, challenge me! If you defeat me once, I'll tell you a story about him!" Thunder God grinned. He knew that these geniuses were somewhat unconvinced, and he needed more geniuses to spar with.
Only by completely subduing them can we possibly control them.
" The Genius Battle is nothing more than a trial for me. My future will not be limited by a single test. Do you dare to fight alongside me?"
"You think you can't beat Zhang Junbao, but you can't beat Thunder God? You underestimate us! I'm afraid you won't know enough by then!"
This time, the geniuses of the Ganwu Universe Country rallied their spirits and embraced new goals.
What does a temporary setback matter?
The meaning of life lies in exploring the unknown future!
Zhang Junbao and Luo Feng continued their journey, while Thunder God also began his own plan.
He didn't care about anyone else; Thunder God only knew that after this, Earth would face immense pressure again, and he had to grow up quickly to share the burden with Zhang Junbao.
