“Other than Luo Feng, there is a slim hope for anyone else to enter the top one thousand, but it is also unlikely! As for the rest of you, even if you are just here for the experience, it will still broaden your horizons!”
The giant with scale armor glanced at the remaining geniuses, his indifferent expression clearly showing his disdain.
The geniuses from various star regions of the Qianwu Universe all clenched their fists upon hearing this, many of them secretly holding back their anger. Even Luo Feng furrowed his brow.
After four years of cultivation, many of them believed that their strength had greatly improved, and they might not necessarily lose to someone like Kui En. Naturally, they were all a bit unwilling.
“Hmph, feel free to be dissatisfied. If you can beat me, I would actually be happy!”
The giant with scale armor took in everyone’s reactions, snorted coldly, and then flew away.
“Alright, let’s all set off with me!”
Under the leadership of the thirteen giants, the one thousand geniuses from the Qianwu Nation flew to the nearest teleportation point and arrived in a brand new dimensional space created by the virtual universe.
It was a vast continent.
A total of 1001 people were teleported and appeared in the sky above this continent.
“The Qianwu Nation’s team, there are 1008 towers ahead. Your team from the Qianwu Nation has been assigned to Tower 0825!”
A white-robed envoy from the Virtual Universe Corporation greeted them and respectfully saluted the giant with scale armor, guiding them.
The ranking of these towers also indicated the overall level of each universe nation among humans. It was clear that the Qianwu Nation was relatively low-ranked.
It was said that in the past dozens of genius battles, not a single genius from the Qianwu Nation had entered the top one thousand. This showed the decline of the Qianwu Nation.
If it weren’t for Rong Jun, who happened to be here, and Luo Feng and Xu Zong who suddenly rose to prominence, the Qianwu Nation would still be unable to enter the top one thousand. They were truly in a sorry state.
The giant with scale armor nodded indifferently and led the team towards the center of the continent.
From afar, they could already see the 1008 towers forming a ring, with a bird-filled and fragrant square in the center. There were many plants and animals that didn’t exist on Earth, as well as geniuses from various universe nations strolling and chatting on the square. At a glance, there were at least a hundred thousand people gathered there.
The geniuses from the Qianwu Nation were amazed by this sight.
Although they had long known that there were many geniuses of their level among the 1008 universe nations, seeing so many geniuses who were on par with or even stronger than themselves all of a sudden made them feel powerless. They, who could command the wind and rain in their own star system or even star region, had become so insignificant among their peers, leaving them with an indescribable sense of powerlessness.
“Land!”
With a command from the giant with scale armor, the Qianwu Nation team quickly descended and landed on the edge of the square. Then, they walked along the road towards the tower marked with the number 0825.
“The team from the Qianwu Nation has arrived!”
“Where is that guy who calls himself Ancestor? The one who is considered the second strongest in this genius battle!”
“That’s him, Ancestor. I really don’t know how he dares to use such a nickname. Isn’t he afraid of being beaten?”
“That guy named Rong Jun is also a formidable opponent. We can’t underestimate him!”
Almost ninety-nine percent of the one hundred thousand geniuses on the square cast their solemn gazes on Xu Zong, as if each and every one of them regarded him as a formidable opponent. They discussed among themselves, and a small portion of their gazes fell on Rong Jun.
The others seemed to be ignored. Kui En clenched his fists in frustration. Even as the number one genius in the Qianwu Secret Realm, he seemed insignificant here.
The other geniuses from the Qianwu Nation also felt a bit resentful.
“It seems like they only know Xu Zong and Rong Jun.”
“There’s nothing we can do. Their strength is indeed overwhelmingly strong!”
Some felt dissatisfied, while others could see the reality.
Among the entire Qianwu Nation, only these two had comprehended the higher laws. Among them, their strength was in a league of its own, and no one else could compete with them.
Under the guidance of the giant with scale armor, everyone entered Tower 0825. The tower was extremely spacious, and even the first floor was large enough for thousands of giants like Kui En to move around freely.
“Everyone, come and get your number plates. Enter the rooms according to your number plates. That will be your resting and living place. After that, whether you want to rest, cultivate, or go out and communicate with geniuses from other universe nations, it’s up to you. When night falls, the virtual universe will automatically summon you.”
With a wave of the giant with scale armor’s hand, a thousand number plates fell from the sky.
Xu Zong took the number plate in front of him, and it was number one. Rong Jun had number two, Luo Feng had number three, and Kui En had number four, and so on. The order of the numbers was determined by their strength.
After distributing the number plates, the giant with scale armor turned and left.After he left, the geniuses of the Qianwu Kingdom who were under his pressure finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then, three or five of them gathered together to discuss what to do next. Some went back to their rooms, not knowing whether to rest or cultivate, while more people walked out of the building and headed towards the square.
“Xu Zong, do you want to go to the square?”
Rong Jun took the number plate and didn’t rush to his room. Instead, he asked Xu Zong next to him.
“Let’s go and take a look, Luo Feng, what about you?”
Xu Zong also wanted to see what the geniuses of this genius battle looked like, and then turned to look at Luo Feng.
“I’ll go too.”
Luo Feng also nodded happily.
The three of them walked out of the building side by side, forming the strongest trio in the Qianwu Kingdom, and immediately attracted the attention of many geniuses on the square.
As time passed, more and more teams from the Universal Kingdom arrived on this continent. Tens of thousands of geniuses gathered here, but the square was extremely large and could accommodate millions of people without being crowded.
“There are still many restaurants here?”
Luo Feng looked around the square. There were 99 restaurants distributed among the buildings. All the other restaurants could be entered and exited freely, and many geniuses were enjoying various delicacies inside. Only the number one restaurant remained tightly closed, not allowing anyone to enter.
“That number one restaurant is a restaurant only for the immortal powerhouses who lead the teams. It is specially designed for the immortal powerhouses.”
Rong Jun also looked at those restaurants and said familiarly.
Soon, another team from the Universal Kingdom arrived. After sending the geniuses of that team into the building, the immortal powerhouse leading the team flew towards the number one restaurant. The restaurant door quickly opened to welcome him in, and then quickly closed.
In the instant the door opened, the three of them clearly saw that there were at least hundreds of immortal powerhouses inside! They were chatting and laughing with each other.
Luo Feng nodded secretly. Rong Jun had never participated in the genius battle before, but he knew so much. It seemed that his background was quite extraordinary.
“So that’s Xu Zong?”
“I heard that his comprehension of the supreme laws is incredibly astonishing, reaching the point where he can unleash dozens of illusions! His strength is several levels stronger than ours!”
“That guy named Rong Jun can also display the Second Body Technique. He is quite powerful and is guaranteed to be among the top twenty!”
On the square, countless geniuses were paying attention to the three of them, but almost no one paid attention to Luo Feng.
When the competition started, Luo Feng would surely give them a big surprise.
“There are many experts among these geniuses!”
Rong Jun’s tiger-like eyes scanned the surroundings, and his gaze paused on several people from time to time. He said with a serious expression.
“The woman with wings on her back is Ai Chen, the ‘Light Sword’ of the Dream Spiral Wing Clan. Her strength is quite powerful, and her attainments in the law of time are also extremely high. She is considered to be among the top ten in strength.”
“The fat man who is six meters tall, nicknamed ‘Blood Axe’, has equally amazing attainments in the law of space, almost comparable to me.”
“And the green-haired siblings with strange secret patterns on their faces, they come from the mysterious force, the Augustus Star, and are also considered to have the potential to be among the top ten!”
Rong Jun, Xu Zong, and Luo Feng exchanged glances and discussed the many geniuses on the square. Although they had collected quite a bit of information beforehand, they didn’t know every detail, but they paid attention to the geniuses who were highly talked about.
In addition to the Light Sword, Blood Axe, and the green-haired siblings, there was also a young man wearing a silver coat, always full of fighting spirit, and a figure in a black coat that was somewhat indistinct.
These people all had the level of the top ten, and their strength was similar to Rong Jun’s. Two of them were even stronger than Rong Jun, and there were more than twenty participants with the potential to be among the top ten!
And this was only the surface-level geniuses. There were definitely more geniuses who were still hiding their strength and were at the level of the sixth place. There were probably even more geniuses of this level hiding in secret.
Like Luo Feng, he also had the potential to be among the top ten, but no one else knew his strength.
Xu Zong remembered that there was another ultimate sixth place, named Long Yun, who was even better at hiding than Luo Feng. He didn’t reveal his true strength until the arena battle, and even pushed Luo Feng out of the top five in the arena battle, making Luo Feng miss the chance to enter the top five.
Suddenly, the entire square fell silent.
A young man in white walked out of a building in the distance. He had a handsome face but no expression, and he carried a blood-colored long sword on his back. The whole person was as cold as ice.
In an instant, hundreds of thousands of geniuses on the square turned their gazes towards the young man in white, and even Xu Zong and the others were no exception.
Faced with so many eyes, the young man in white remained unchanged, his eyes cold, and there was no fluctuation in his expression.
“Death God” Bolan!”
“The undisputed number one in this genius battle!”
“How did he cultivate?”
Various discussions echoed from all around the square, and everyone stared at Bolan, also fearing him. Even someone like Rong Jun found it difficult to raise his fighting spirit when facing him.
Luo Feng’s expression also became solemn. He also knew Bolan’s reputation. He came from the Noah Universe Kingdom and his strength was far superior to the second place, with a deep and unfathomable gap. It was said that he had once erupted with hundreds of illusions in one breath!Among the 1008 cosmic nations, Berland has gained the recognition of everyone. Almost everyone, including the rulers of many cosmic nations, believes that Berland is undoubtedly the first in this generation’s Genius Battle!
Even Xu Zong, who can burst out dozens of phantom bodies, is only considered to be the second place. The gap in strength between him and Berland is unimaginable! No one thinks he can beat Berland.
“This guy is my only opponent!”
Looking at Berland, the young man in white, Xu Zong couldn’t help but feel a strong desire to fight.
After four years of cultivation, his strength has improved a lot. Whether he can defeat Berland or not will be revealed in this Genius Battle!
