After the perfect opening, I joined the chat group

Chapter 308, Section 317: PK between group members
Since the other members were still participating in the trials, Shi Jian and the others suddenly had some free time.

However, they did not remain idle; instead, they devoted themselves to comprehending various laws and domains.

The ten laws of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, light, thunder, lightning, time, and space—we don't want to let anyone in the group miss a single one.

The Five Elements theory of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth goes without saying.

Now almost everyone has figured it out.

The laws of lightning are something that Xiao Yan and the others haven't grasped yet, but it's only a matter of time.

Thunder Emperor's Technique, Five Elements Divine Thunder... there are countless ways to comprehend the laws of lightning.

With the aid of techniques representing extreme speed, such as the Kunpeng Technique and the Instant Kill Technique, mastering the Law of Wind is not difficult.

With the assistance of Lin Dong's Space Ancestral Symbol, comprehending the laws of space is not too difficult.

On the contrary, the Law of Light and the Law of Time are a bit difficult to comprehend.

The Law of Light.

The others have no advantage.

However, since Shi Jian and Yang Qi have already mastered the basics, they can guide and verify each other's work, and others can also learn a little bit.

The most difficult thing is this law of time.

Among the many cultivation systems discussed in the group, none of them involve the law of time!
……

Time flies.

Amidst the cultivation efforts of everyone in the group, the Peak Genius Battle Trial quickly came to an end!

On the central square.

More than 1000 exceptional geniuses gathered here.

Shi Jian and his group stood at the very front, watched by countless geniuses with awe. Clearly, this selection competition...

It dealt them a heavy blow.

The man in the cyan battle robe from the Virtual Universe Company looked at the crowd: "Congratulations! You are the 1000 most outstanding individuals from among the more than 1000 cosmic nations of the entire human race in this Genius Battle!"

"My Virtual Universe Company will do its best to train you... However, you should understand that competition will always exist in the universe. If you want to get better treatment in Virtual Universe Company, you have to compete!"
"You are the 101st to 1000th out of 1000 people who will receive a bonus of 10 Chaos Units and enter the Initial Universe for enlightenment. You can also join the Doomsday Secret Realm of my Virtual Universe Company!"

"Those ranked 21st to 100th will receive a bonus of 100 Primordial Units, enter the Initial Universe for comprehension, and may join the Core Heaven and Earth Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company!"

"Those ranked 11th to 20th will receive a prize of 1000 Primordial Units, enter the Initial Universe, and join the Primordial Secret Realm!"

"Those ranked 1st to 10th will receive a prize of 10,000 Chaos Units and enter the Primal Secret Realm..."

“Normally, the Primal Realm only admits one person per session. However, your session is exceptionally outstanding. After discussion, the Virtual Universe Company has decided to grant your session 10 slots to enter the Primal Realm!”

"Next, we'll have a tournament to determine the final rankings!"

The man in the blue battle robe spoke a powerful voice that echoed in everyone's mind.

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze to Shi Jian and the others!

Under normal circumstances, the Virtual Universe Company's Primal Secret Realm only admits one person per session.

And this time.

But they want to recruit a total of 10 people...

obviously.

This was aimed at Shi Jian and his group.

After the man in the cyan battle robe finished explaining the benefits of working for the Virtual Universe Company, the rules of the arena competition were revealed.

Based on their performance in the trial space and the three rounds of elimination, the 100 most outstanding talents will be selected from among many exceptional geniuses.

Then let these people challenge the top 100 on the trial leaderboard.

A total of 200 people will engage in one-on-one battles.

From the 100 winners, the top 40 are selected to compete in one-on-one matches...

Then the top 20 will be selected.

The 20 contestants will compete again to select the final 10!

All ten of them can enter the Primal Secret Realm.

These ten teams will then compete against each other to determine the final ranking.

However, this is the final ranking.

It does not affect the salary or benefits.

This time, the rules of the Virtual Universe Company have been changed significantly compared to previous years.

It can be said.

It was custom-made specifically for Shi Jian and others...

After the man in the golden robe announced the rules, a ripple arose in the crowd.

Some people have raised questions about the rules...

This caused a minor disturbance.

But this has nothing to do with the people in the group...

That's what they care about.

Only the final arena match remains.

The group of people all looked eager to make a move.

……

Early morning on day 2.

In the central square, 1000 exceptional geniuses gathered.

The man in the cyan battle robe spoke: "Today is a good day. We will select the top 100, top 20, and top 10 from among your 1000 people within one day!"

"Now that you're ready, let's begin the final!"

The man in the blue battle robe looked down at the crowd. With a wave of his hand, 100 huge arenas appeared in the central square!

Shi Jian and more than 200 others were teleported into the arena.

There are two people in each arena.

In an instant, all the immortal powerhouses and those geniuses who were not qualified to participate turned their attention to the first ten arenas...

This is precisely the arena for everyone in the group.

Shi Jian.

Shi Hao.

Meng Qi.

Lin Dong.

Xiao Yan.

Yang Qi.

Fang Han.

Lin Feng.

Luo Feng.

Li Changshou.

The silver-white arena covered an area spanning dozens of miles, with black netting enveloping the entire arena.

Some of the fighters in the ring were full of passion and excitement!
They yearn for progress.

They also need to compete for a higher number of trial slots.

but.

The people in the top ten arena looked ashen-faced.

Shi Jian's opponent was a lean young man with jet-black skin and thick lips. The young man looked at Shi Jian...

I'm already starting to tremble.

He cursed the Virtual Universe Company's arrangements in his heart.

I'm fighting monsters from Earth?

me?

Previous trials were also pre-recorded.

It's not open to the public, but the participants are entitled to watch.

therefore.

They had almost all witnessed Shi Jian and his companions attempting to pass the test.

Such overwhelming methods aroused doubts in the hearts of these peerless geniuses from the universe.

Is this a stellar-level object?
I would believe you if you said they were the realm lords.

The gap is too big.

Inside the Trial Tower, those monsters that filled them with despair...

In front of these people.

All that remains is despair.

Now... he has replaced the monsters in the Trial Tower.

He stood in front of this group of people!

Despite the immense pressure, he mustered his courage and instantly increased his speed. The sword in his hand transformed into a raging gale, and endless sword light converged to form a storm that swept across the heavens and earth...

He took action.

next moment.

His body was sent flying backward.

He was carried away.

……

There were no surprises for the others either.

The game was over the instant it started.

These normal "peerless geniuses" couldn't withstand a single move from them.

The real highlight.

Or is it just their internal strife?
……

"Congratulations to the little ones standing on the stage! You've made it into the top 100 and can now enter my virtual company's secret realm... Next up is the selection of 20 from 40!"

"Based on the selection criteria of the virtual universe system... I present the list!"

“Shi Jian…”

“Meng Qi…”

quickly.

The competition to select 40 people from 20 has begun...

No surprise.

The 10 people in the group were assigned to different competition venues.

Follow the current rules.

The ten of them were almost predetermined.

Virtual Universe Company would naturally not allow the ten members to kill each other before finalizing the list.

After a while.

Another 20 people have been selected!
Another contest has been set up.

Ten arenas, ten duels!
On one side are Shi Jian and his group of overpowered members...

On the other side are Bolan, the Phantom Demon, and other native geniuses from the world of Devouring Stars!

If it is normal.

People like Berlan will certainly be surrounded by the majority of people.

But now.

They were almost universally disliked.

This was evident from the previous trial matches...

These people are on a completely different level from Shi Jian and his group.

……

Although Bolan and his group were not favored, the other contestants and even the immortal powerhouses were all quite concerned about the outcome of this arena battle!
They all want to know.

How big is the gap between Bolan and his group and Shi Jian and his group?
quickly.

The competition to narrow down the field from 20 to 10 has begun!
Shi Jian was facing "Ai Chen," an existence who had comprehended the fundamental laws of light and time...

Although she had comprehended the fundamental laws of time, it was all in vain in the face of absolute power.

Shi Jian gave her a chance to make a move. After carefully experiencing the mysteries of the laws of time, he eliminated her!
Compared to the methods used by others in the group, his methods were already quite mild.

The Grim Reaper, Berlan, was facing off against Fang Han...

They were beaten so badly they didn't even have the right to kneel down and be a dog...

quickly.

The round of 20 to 10 has also ended!

"With all four levels of selection completed, this year's Universal Humanity's Pinnacle Genius Selection Competition can basically be considered over!"

The man in the blue battle robe smiled.

"Your class is the most outstanding ever. I believe that decades or even hundreds of years from now, some of your names will still resonate throughout the entire universe!"

His gaze was mainly fixed on Shi Jian and the others.

"Especially you—the fact that the Virtual Universe Company made an exception and admitted ten people to the Initial Secret Realm at once is unprecedented!"
"Your benefits and compensation have been finalized and will not change... However, your rankings have not yet been completely determined!"

"The upcoming tournaments will no longer involve any benefits or perks; they will only determine rankings..."

"Please start your performance!"

The man in the cyan battle robe waved his hand and then spoke:

"The virtual universe system cannot provide accurate data on your strength simulation, therefore it cannot arrange the opponents as it did in the previous arena!"

"I've decided to leave the final ranking match to you all!"

"You can determine the final ranking in any way and according to any rules..."

As soon as the man in the cyan battle robe finished speaking, everyone's eyes lit up.

Needless to say, Shi Jian and his group had long wanted to have an internal imperial city PK.

As for the other participating geniuses and the immortal powerhouses watching the competition...

It's human nature to enjoy watching a spectacle.

In literature, there is no first place; in martial arts, there is no second!
Shi Jian and his group were so exceptionally strong that other geniuses who went up to spar with them couldn't even get a proper understanding of the match before being forced to leave the stage...

They practiced and competed with each other.

No one could imagine how amazing it would be!
Watching such a group of unparalleled geniuses compete for supremacy, isn't that more satisfying than Boran?
……

Shi Jian and the others were somewhat surprised that Virtual Universe Company had directly entrusted them with deciding the "competition process".

The previous few matches.

The entire charter was arranged by the Virtual Universe Company's system.

They were all "outstanding" members selected by the Virtual Universe Company system.

Then arrange for members to compete against each other.

It's all based on data, and there's no "fair" process.

Some people's data suggests he's not good enough.

He wasn't even qualified to participate in the ring competition.

There was a minor conflict between some people because of this.

now.

Virtual Universe Company has decided not to arrange the final competition process at all.

Instead, Shi Jian and others were allowed to decide the process themselves.

That's so "spiritual"!
This was exactly what everyone in the group wanted!
The group gathered together and began discussing how to conduct the final round.

Regarding the rules for the finals, everyone unanimously adhered to two principles:

1. Everyone wants to beat up Xiao Yan.

2. I want to beat up Xiao Yan together.

Based on these two principles, the group quickly discussed and finalized the procedures.

[PK Tournament]
[Major Melee]

In a PK tournament, a single arena is used to select a champion!
Then everyone else can go up on stage to take on the challenge.

He won the challenge and replaced the reigning champion.

The challenge was lost, so someone else takes the stage...

One point is awarded for each person defeated.

They take turns hitting each other.

They've already decided who won and who lost; no further challenges are allowed!
After everyone has had a turn...

The PK match is over.

Then a massive melee ensued.

The first person eliminated in the chaotic battle has the lowest score...

The person who stays until the end gets the highest score.

The scores from both competitions are added together, and the final score determines the ranking!

The PK tournament is already fair enough.

However, everyone still unanimously requested that a large-scale free-for-all be added.

This is a huge melee!

Hehe...

……

After hearing the process explained, a strange look flashed across the face of the man in the blue battle robe.

But he didn't say anything.

Instead, they agreed.

With a wave of his hand, a huge arena instantly appeared on the ground!

"In that case, let the final match begin!"

The man in the golden battle robe explained the rules to the others.

Under the spotlight.

Imperial City PK...

it has started!

Shi Jian and his companions exchanged glances, their eyes filled with intense fighting spirit.

Who will be the first champion?

Shi Jian's gaze swept over the crowd, and several of them were itching to make a move.

but.

Xiao Yan was the first to speak: "It is definitely me, the big winner of the last bet, who is qualified to be the first champion!"

He walked onto the stage with a swagger.

Seeing this, the other men who were itching to make a move hardened their fists!

They became even more eager to make a move.

No one objected to Xiao Yan becoming the first champion!
But.

They all wanted to be the first to go on stage and challenge Xiao Yan.

Teach him a lesson!

Shi Jian looked at the group of men whose fists were hard and sighed helplessly.

His fists had actually hardened.

"How about this, let's roll a die in the group chat... The one with the highest number on the die goes up first to challenge Xiao Yan!"

"Don't worry if you didn't get to go on stage. Following this procedure, everyone has a chance to fight him..."

Shi Jian then set out a set of rules.

The others nodded and started rolling dice in the group chat.

The results came out very quickly.

The highest points.

Lin Dong!

(Shamelessly asking for monthly votes, I'll add an extra chapter tomorrow)
