Gao Wu: Become stronger by grinding Erlang Shen's talents

Chapter 647 The Strongest Opponent—The Triangle Clan! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Cosmic Arena

This is a primeval forest, with trees growing in abundance and plants flourishing.

"Bang bang!"

A violent explosion occurred, golden threads pierced through the forest, and countless towering trees collapsed with a deafening roar.

A crimson giant blade slashed down from the sky, cracking the earth, causing the earth dragon to turn over, plowing through the grassland, and burning the entire forest in scorching flames.

A man with a sharp, blood-red horn on his head, a strong physique, bulging muscles, and surging blood and qi, wearing a blood-red armor, was seen wielding a battle sword.

At this moment, the man's expression was solemn, and his whole body was shrouded in crimson flames.

Luo Yun's expression turned solemn as he looked at the man opposite him, who was wearing black and gold armor, a black one-eyed mask, and wielding a black spear.

"How is this possible? How could you become so powerful in just one month?"

Yang Jian, on the other side, said calmly:

"It's just a small improvement in martial arts!"

"Suffer to death!"

After saying that, his figure shot out like a golden lightning bolt, piercing straight through the air, the sharp tip of his spear cutting through the air.

It was like a real spearhead thrusting out, incredibly fast.

"too fast!"

Luo Yun also strode forward, leaving deep footprints in his wake.

He brandished his sharp, blood-red battle blade, displaying exquisite swordsmanship.

The high-speed rotating fire wheel causes it to burn intensely, and the temperature keeps rising.

As time goes by, his swordsmanship will only become stronger.

“Ding ding!!”

The clash of swords and spears sounded like the booming tolling of bells, a clash of powerful energies.

But every shot from Lynch was like a golden thread piercing out, striking the weak points of the knife technique, both fast and accurate.

It made him feel uncomfortable, and he was attacked and forced to retreat.

Previously, his martial arts skills were inferior to his opponent's.

However, he defeated his opponent by relying on his superior physical abilities.

But now the opponent's moves have become heavy and swift.

He started to feel the strain!
He felt heavy-hearted; he had fought Yang Jian two months ago.

Although he successfully defeated Yang Jian that time, the victory was not easy.

The other person left a deep impression on him.

Unexpectedly, in just two months, the opponent's strength has increased dramatically.

Lin Qi said calmly:
"Defeat!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Yun's eyes turned red as he roared in fury:

"I am a genius of the Triangle Clan!"

"How could I possibly lose?!"

After saying that, his blood surged and his aura rose steadily!
He brandished his sword, his body spinning rapidly as he unleashed a deadly attack.

But Lin Qi seemed to have anticipated this, and his speed suddenly increased significantly.

A flash of golden light streaked past, the spear tip tore through the air, and cleanly pierced Luo Yun's neck.

Killer move—Instant Shadow Thousand Lights!
"Pfft~"

"what?"

Luo Yun looked down at his neck, where the spearhead had pierced through, blood splattering everywhere, and a sharp pain surged through him.

he died!
[Battle Over: Yang Jian wins!]

……

Lin Qi smiled immediately after hearing the voice from the AI ​​system.

Meanwhile, nearly 100 million people watched the live broadcast of the match on a giant screen in the sky.

"I'm not seeing things, am I? Luo Yun actually lost?"

"Luo Yun is a member of the Triangle Clan, and one of their top geniuses, yet he lost?"

"It was the same Yang Jian last time, whom Luo Yun easily defeated. I didn't expect that his combat power would have increased so much in just a few months."

"I've watched Yang Jian grow up all along. He's become so strong now that he'll definitely participate in the Deep Space Genius Tournament."

“I can recognize him as soon as he uses his marksmanship.”

"I'm getting more and more curious about who he really is?"

"I've checked. Yang Jian belongs to the Triangulum Galaxy, and Luo Yun is also a member of the Triangulum Clan. We might meet at the Deep Space Genius Competition."

……

Blue Star, in my personal space
"Buzz!"

Lynch was teleported back, and he was in a good mood.

With his four source veins, his combat power was greatly enhanced after being tested in the cosmic arena.

Whether it's speed, strength, or the power of gun techniques, everything has been improved in every aspect.

And finally defeated Luo Yun, who came from the Triangulum Galaxy and was a member of the Triangulum Clan.

Two months ago, with only three source veins, he was no match for Luo Yun.

Now that he has broken through, he has been matched with the opponent again, which is the perfect opportunity for revenge.

He looked at the screen. He had played 20 consecutive matches, and in each match he was matched with a star system-level genius from the Sky Realm, achieving a perfect record.

Nickname: Yang Jian

[Realm: The First Realm of the Universe to Control the Sky]

Win rate: 99.4% (7950 wins, 50 losses)

[Combat Strength: 9 stars]

[Galaxy Ranking: 5]

[Rank of the Triangulum Galaxy: 1201]

[Ranking in the Blazing Sun Star Region: 15.6 million]

……

Lin Qi looked at his ranking, realizing that his actual strength was higher than his ranking suggested.

Even so, he's already close to the top 1000, so his strength is more than enough to get him into the top 1000 through the star system selection.

However, his goal is not to be in the top 1000, but in the top 16!
While there are rewards for the top 1000, they are not substantial.

Seeing this, Lin Qi continued matching.

Now, geniuses are entering the cosmic martial arts arena to fight against other geniuses, which is a great way to hone their martial arts skills.

[Start matching!]

【Successful match! 】

The moment the match was successful, he disappeared from his personal space again.

……

After the college entrance examination, the results are released, and students fill out their college applications.

Lynch also celebrated his 24th birthday.

The entire planet Earth began promoting the Deep Space Genius Competition, even though many people couldn't access the cosmic virtual network.

However, you can watch the live stream on the official website.

Everyone started to look forward to the competition.

……

June 30th has arrived, the last day of June.

The virtual world of the universe, the meeting of the Imperial Star Palace.

In the spacious conference room appeared the Blue Star Civilization, the Flowing Blade Civilization, and the Star Patrol Team.

"Buzz!"

Lin Qi, dressed in a black and gold robe, appeared in the Imperial Star Hall, and his position was now in the first row.

Beside them are the Crimson Emperor in white robes, the Overlord in purple robes, Sun Sheng, and Li Tianxing.

The five of them sat in the first row.

The rule of the Imperial Star Palace is that the stronger you are, the closer you sit.

These five are the five strongest people in the Xia Kingdom.

Sword Emperor, Mountain and River King, and Azure Immortal all retreated to the second row, including Jiang Tao.

He is a galaxy-level genius, whose strength ranks sixth in the Xia Kingdom.

Sun Sheng, dressed in a golden robe, asked curiously:

"Why did the Flowing Blade Civilization summon our Blue Star Civilization here?"

The Crimson Emperor said, "You'll find out soon enough!"

Lin Qi looked at the Flowing Blade Civilization and found that all the geniuses, including Liu Ming, were online.

Soon after the timer stopped, the white-robed Tianrenliu sitting opposite them spoke first:

"Everyone from the Blue Star Civilization, there is only one purpose for gathering you all here today: the Deep Space Genius Competition tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, everyone on Blue Star became serious.

Tianrenliu raised his hand, and several figures were projected into the sky. The characteristic of each of them was that they had a single horn of a different color on their heads.

"The Deep Space Genius Tournament, the grandest competition for the entire human race."

"It consists of three rounds, the first of which is the selection within the galaxy!"

"The Blue Star civilization and our Flowing Blade civilization both belong to the Triangulum Galaxy."

"We will all be participating in the first round of the Deep Space Genius Competition within the Triangulum Galaxy!"

"This year alone, the number of applicants in the Triangulum Galaxy has reached a new high, with the number of Sky Realm warriors exceeding 10 billion, reaching an astonishing 11 billion."

"The number of people in the second realm of the universe has reached 987 million!"

Everyone was shocked; the number was truly astonishing.

Tianrenliu continued:

"Due to the overwhelming number of applicants, 99% of the contestants will be eliminated in the first round!"

"The first round is divided into elimination rounds and individual competitions."

"In this process, the knockout stage will eliminate 99% of the players."

"11 billion contestants will be divided into different planets and will fight and compete continuously."

"According to the rules, at the beginning, you will get one point for each person you kill."

"Once you have more than 2 points, you will receive one-third of the opponent's points for each kill."

"The elimination round will last for 30 days in Earth time, and the top 1000 players in the standings will be selected to advance to the first round."

Everyone nodded. These were the competition rules for the first round of the Deep Space Genius Competition, and most of them had already read them.

After a brief pause, Tianrenliu said:

"This is the first time that everyone from the Blue Star Civilization has participated in this competition, so there are some details that you may not be clear about, but these details are very important."

"Although the Deep Space Genius Competition mainly focuses on the strength of the martial artist themselves."

"But when the strengths are similar, details determine success or failure."

"Because it's all about points, whether you can get the final score is crucial."

"Everyone only has one chance; if you die, you're eliminated."

"If you die early on, you get too few points."

"If you die later in the game, you will lose one-third of your points."

"If you want to survive to the end, you have to be careful to avoid experts." Everyone nodded. If you don't know an expert and rashly run into them, you'll just be handing them kills and points.

Tianrenliu then pointed to the big screen and said:

"You all should already know the geniuses from the Blazing Sun Academy, so I won't go into too much detail."

"What everyone needs most is a triangle tribe!"

"The Triangulum are the actual rulers of the Triangulum Galaxy and the most powerful force."

"The entire galaxy is named after their race."

"The Triangle Clan members with pure bloodlines are few in number, but their talents are exceptionally high."

"Geniuses who are born with special abilities, 29% of whom are born with two abilities, and 1% are galaxy-level geniuses."

“Any one of them is a top genius from another civilization.”

"They not only cultivate geniuses of their own race, but also absorb geniuses from other civilizations."

"It can be said that the Triangulum Civilization will obtain at least 500 of the top 1000 spots each year, occupying half of them."

"Most of the time, they occupy two-thirds of the spots."

"The other third was divided up by other civilizations."

Upon hearing this, everyone knew that the Triangular Constellation civilization was strong, but they hadn't expected it to be this strong.

The Heavenly Blade Style continued its introduction:

"Among the Triangle Clan, none are weak. If you encounter them, it's best to avoid them and not fight them."

"And they also have a distinctive feature, which is that they have a single horn on their head, which is mainly one of three colors."

"Blood-red, gold, and ink-black!"

"If you see a warrior with a single horn on their head, and the color matches one of the three types, there's a 90% chance they're a member of the Triangle Clan!"

"As long as we avoid them and the others are careful, we should have no problem surviving to the end."

The group looked at the projected figures and began to discuss.

"The Triangle Clan is stronger than we thought. I've even matched with one in the Cosmic Arena."

"He was extremely strong; he only managed to withstand ten moves before being killed by his opponent."

"I've heard about this at the Blazing Sun Academy. The Triangle Clan is not only strong, but they also absorb geniuses from weaker civilizations."

“Even Unida almost joined the Triangle Clan, but later entered the Blazing Sun Academy for other reasons.”

Lin Qi listened to the discussions around him and observed the characteristics of the Triangle Clan.

He recalled Luo Yun, whom he had matched with in the Cosmic Arena half a month ago.

The opponent had a blood-red horn, clearly indicating that it was a member of the Triangular Tribe.

The opponent's strength is indeed not bad.

If what Tianrenliu said is true, then the Triangle Clan must have even stronger geniuses.

If he wants to achieve a higher ranking, he definitely needs to avoid the Triangle Clan in the early stages.

Tianrenliu continued, "Among the Triangular Race, there are also geniuses from other civilizations!"

"These are data on some galaxy-level geniuses. We have collected information on a total of 158 galaxy-level geniuses."

"As long as you are careful to avoid them, you have a chance to get into the top 1000."

Everyone watched the continuously projected information and quickly memorized it.

This information is extremely important.

It enables them to identify powerful experts, especially galaxy-level geniuses.

Once you encounter them, it's almost impossible to win.

The Crimson Emperor slowly spoke:

"Thank you so much!"

He knew that the Blue Star civilization was too weak, and without certain channels and resources, it would be impossible to collect all this information.

Tianrenliu waved his hand and said:

"We also hope that your Blue Star can achieve a better ranking. Now we are allies."

The people of the Blue Star Civilization nodded, and they had to admit that the Flowing Blade Civilization had reached its limit.

They had done their research and found that other civilizations that were supported were exploited and ruthlessly exploited.

The Liuren Civilization not only provided dedicated support but also offered assistance from time to time.

I just had bad luck.

The meeting then lasted for two hours before finally ending.

The people from Blue Star felt they had benefited greatly; they realized there were so many details to pay attention to in the Deep Space Genius Competition.

Without the Flowing Blade Civilization, their Blue Star Civilization would probably have had to pay a lot of tuition fees in their first participation in the competition.

……

In the virtual world of Blue Star, all the martial artists at the Sky Soaring Realm are also holding a small meeting.

The Crimson Emperor, his aura blazing, sat in the very center, his expression solemn as he spoke:
"The Deep Space Genius Competition officially begins tomorrow!"

"Based on the information from the Flowing Blade Civilization, I hope that more people can persevere to the end in the elimination rounds and make it into the top 1000."

"The first round isn't the Blazing Sun Ranking, so there aren't that many galaxy-level geniuses. Everyone has a chance."

The crowd nodded; many of them had hope, and luck was also a part of ability.

After the meeting

Lin Qi opened his eyes and returned to his martial arts room.

"drop!"

The next moment, I saw a large number of documents published by the Red Emperor on my phone.

These are all star systems in the Triangulum constellation, home to many geniuses.

In particular, there are 158 galaxy-level geniuses, which is quite a number.

Lin Qi quickly memorized their information one by one.

In the knockout stage, although most of them are not your opponents, it is best to avoid them for now.

……

In the Flowing Blade virtual world, in a huge conference room.

Thousands of figures converged, all of them warriors at the Sky Soaring Realm, and there were also dozens of figures who were warriors at the Universe Second Realm.

At the center of the meeting sat a tall, lean man dressed in a fitted blue robe.

Wind patterns appeared on his brown skin, as if he were the source of the wind.

The surrounding air seemed to ripple, for he was the strongest of the Flowing Blade Civilization—the Blade Master.

Everyone looked up at the Blade Master, the strongest in their civilization and the only one to reach the third realm of the universe.

The Blade Master looked around and said:

"The first round of the Deep Space Genius Competition will officially begin in less than 10 hours."

"I hope that in the first round, 20 people from our Flowing Blade Civilization can make it into the top 1000."

"Can it be done?"

His voice was loud and clear, like a storm, making one's heart pound uncontrollably.

"able!!"

The crowd roared.

Blade Master nodded after hearing this, believing that their Flowing Blade Civilization would achieve even better results this time.

It's a pity that no genius like the Crimson Emperor or Lin Qi has emerged.

Even if there are no people at the level of Jiang Tao, Sun Sheng, Li Tianxing, or the God of War.

He was quite satisfied with Liu Ming's talent, but compared with the Blue Star civilization, he immediately felt that it was far inferior.

The Blue Star civilization, this civilization, and the Flowing Blade civilization need to befriend them.

There will definitely be a reward in the future.

……

November 1, 2053 in the Martial Arts Calendar.

6:00 AM, House No. 5

In the living room, the Lin family of five sat at the dining table eating breakfast.

The younger brother and sister diligently ate their rice, finishing a large bite in no time.

Father Lin Zhen asked:

"Xiao Qi, what time does the Deep Space Genius Competition officially start?"

Lin Qi wiped the rice grains from his younger brother Lin Xiao's mouth and began to explain:

"The official start time is around 10:00!"

"However, all of our players must enter the competition in advance."

Mother Fang Huiyi spoke up:

"Xiao Qi, you have to keep it up!"

"Go, brother!" said Lin Zhaoyue, the younger sister, in her childish voice.

Lin Qi patted his sister's head and smiled:

"Don't worry, I'll make it into the top 1000."

After the meal, Lin Qi returned to the martial arts room and sat cross-legged.

"drop!"

Turn on the virtual bracelet and log in to the virtual universe network.

"Buzz!"

In personal space, on a vast training ground.

Lin Qi logged into the Deep Space Institute's official website and a message immediately popped up.

[Have you advanced to the first round of the Deep Space Genius Competition?]

Without any hesitation, he clicked "Yes".

"Buzz!"

The next instant, his body vanished from the spot.

"boom!!"

When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was a plaza as huge as a planet.

The square was packed with people, with over 10 billion martial artists emerging one after another.

The next instant, his perspective shifted, and he found himself in the square.

"Is this the scene of the Deep Space Genius Competition?"

"They are all contestants, and all of them are martial artists at the Sky Soaring Realm."

Lin Qi listened to the discussions around him; all around him were Sky Realm warriors from different civilizations.

Some have green skin, some have fish scales on their faces, and some have skin as rough as withered tree branches.

Some are as tall as three meters and have a robust build, while others are no more than 1.6 meters tall, with a slender figure and a light gait.

Everyone is a Sky-Soaring Realm martial artist!
"Brother Qi!"

Lynch

Several familiar voices came from behind.

He turned his head and saw familiar faces from Blue Star: Jiang Tao, Sun Sheng, Li Tianxing, War God, Overlord, Mountain and River King, and others.

Hundreds of Sky-Soaring Realm warriors from Blue Star have been logging on one after another.
