Advancing to the Top 100: The Twenty-Person Roster!
In mid-air, space distorted slightly.
The imposing figure in the blue battle robe reappeared out of thin air.
The Venerable Nine Swords looked down at the 1,000 young people below.
With a hint of approval in his eyes, he slowly spoke:
Today is a good day.
"Today, we will be in this square."
"Within one day, from among your 1000 people."
"Select the top 100, the top 10, and the final first and second place winners."
"Are you all ready? Then, let the final battle begin!"
As the Venerable Nine Swords finished speaking, he gently waved his wide sleeves.
"Boom!"
The entire Central Plaza began to tremble violently.
Before everyone's trembling eyes, 100 enormous, silver-white arenas instantly appeared on the ground.
Each arena has a diameter of 10 kilometers.
The edges and top of the arena were completely covered by a huge net woven from black law threads.
The light flickered.
Two hundred young men and women, including Luo Feng, Bolan, and Rong Jun, vanished from the spot in an instant.
They were directly teleported into the massive arena covered by 100 black nets.
Meanwhile, 800 geniuses remained standing in the square.
Looking around at the empty space.
The 800 people who were not teleported in all wore expressions of bitterness and resentment.
They knew they didn't even have the right to compete.
They have already been eliminated by the Virtual Universe System.
They were destined to enter the lowest of the Four Great Secret Realms: the Apocalypse Secret Realm.
Virtual Universe Company's system is absolutely infallible.
They were not selected.
This only indicates that the system's precise calculations and previous trial performance evaluations were effective.
Their strength and potential are simply not enough to qualify them for the next round of entry into the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm.
Cruel, yet undeniably real.
At this moment, there were 1008 powerful Immortal high in the sky.
And the talented elites in the square who had lost their chance to compete.
Most people focused their attention on the two most eye-catching arenas.
One is the arena of Death God Bolan.
The other one, naturally, is the arena where Luo Feng, who holds the top spot in the Trial Tower and enjoys immense prestige, resides.
On the ring.
The silvery-white alloy floor gleamed with a cold luster.
The area within a 10-kilometer radius was completely Blockade black netting.
Luo Feng stood quietly to one side of the ring, arms crossed.
He slightly raised his eyes to look at the opponent assigned to him by the Virtual Universe System for this battle.
He was a young man dressed in Azure Battle Armor and wielding a heavy greatsword.
A faint, violent aura of the Law of Wind flowed around the young man.
He is clearly a powerful genius who has crossed the threshold of the laws.
At this moment, Luo Feng pondered for a moment.
I realized I had absolutely no recollection of this person.
In the previous Trial Tower rankings, this person was estimated to be ranked outside the top 100.
Luo Feng didn't take this battle seriously at all.
And standing opposite was the young man in blue armor.
He realized that his opponent was the one who had dominated the Seventh Trial Tower.
Luo Feng, a terrifying monster with nearly 30 billion points.
His face turned deathly pale instantly.
"What bad luck, running into this monster in the very first battle."
The young man in blue armor sighed helplessly, his eyes filled with despair and bitterness.
But he was, after all, a top genius, and the despair in his eyes instantly transformed into a frenzied fighting spirit.
Even if he is defeated, he will fight with all his might!
And so, the young man in blue armor roared in anger.
His entire body transformed into a raging azure tornado.
Amidst howling winds, the heavy greatsword in his hand, carrying wind blades that tore through the void, slashed furiously towards Luo Feng!
However, Luo Feng didn't even lift an eyelid in the face of this powerful attack.
Luo Feng pointed his fingers like a knife, and then pointed at the target from afar.
The Yan Shen Armament thin air.
A small golden sword shot out wildly, like a fish swimming.
The speed was extremely fast.
The young man in blue armor only saw a flash of golden light before his eyes.
Before he could even react defensively, Luo Feng's casual strike pierced his skull.
With just one move, Luo Feng ended the battle.
"First battle, victory."
Electronic voices from the Virtual Universe System echoed above the arena.
This victory means that Luo Feng has successfully entered the top 100 of this year's Genius Battle.
His prize money also increased to 100 Hunyuan Unit.
With a flash of light, Luo Feng was teleported back to the Central Plaza.
They waited for the battles in the other arenas to end.
Soon after, the black netting on the last arena slowly disappeared.
The first round of 100 matches has come to an end.
Congratulations to the winning little ones!
The towering figure of the Venerable Nine Swords hovered in mid-air, looking down at the 100 victorious young men and women below.
A gentle smile appeared on his face.
"First of all, congratulations on successfully making it into the top 100 and gaining the qualification to enter the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm of My Virtual Universe Company."
"However, on the path of cultivation, one must forge ahead bravely."
"Now, it's time to select the 20 best among you to advance to the next stage of the competition."
"Based on your previous performance in the Trial Tower, according to the Virtual Universe System."
"Based on a comprehensive assessment of their performance in the arena battle just now, I have obtained this list of 20 people."
"Now, I will name these 20 people."
Upon hearing this, the 100 newly victorious young geniuses standing on the ground...
Many of the geniuses' breathing became rapid instantly, and their expressions became extremely tense.
Although they were the winners, only 20 of them qualified for the next round.
To compete for that prestigious top 10.
The remaining 80 people will be permanently trapped in the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, missing out on the upcoming peak showdown.
At this moment, the Venerable Nine Swords began to chant the names.
"Luo Feng!"
Luo Feng remained calm; this was exactly what he had expected.
"Bolan!"
"Ai Chen!"
"Wuka!"
"Rong Jun!"
"Galesi!"
One name after another was uttered from the mouth of the Venerable Nine Swords.
The faces of the geniuses whose names had not yet been called grew increasingly anxious.
Fine beads of cold sweat even appeared on his forehead.
Soon, all 20 names had been read aloud.
"The 20 people selected by the Virtual Universe System are the same 20 people I named."
The Venerable Nine Swords smiled slightly, looking down at the scene below:
"You 20 people, rest over there and recover from the exhaustion of the battle."
"In half an hour, the next battle, the round of 20 to 10, will begin."
"As for who your opponents are, you'll find out the moment you step into the ring."
After saying that, the Venerable Nine Swords fell silent.
On the square, the 80 geniuses whose names were not called could not hide their sadness and dejection.
They knew that their journey in the Genius Battle had come to an end prematurely.
Although the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm is already excellent.
But watching others continue on their way, I was ultimately filled with resentment.
Luo Feng walked to a bench in the rest area, sat down, and closed his eyes to rest.
