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

Chapter 660 The Blood Arena of Ten Directions, Lin Qi Takes the Stage! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Master Shanhe Wang also spoke up at this moment:

Even top geniuses can be killed and die tragically if they are not careful!

"The genius Xikaz in the first match, he was observed to have the strength to be in the top 8, but he was still killed in the end, so he could only pin his hopes on the revival match."

Lorraine slowly began to speak:

"The eight who advanced are not unknown individuals; they all come from powerful civilizations."

"For example, Regis comes from the Ray Yao civilization. They are the rulers of the Ray Yao star system, which ranks among the top ten out of tens of thousands of star systems."

"And there's Rouyin, from Yuhua Mountain, the most powerful force in the Yuhua Galaxy, which is also among the top ten galaxies."

"And there's Kamushius, from the Manpeng Galaxy. They are all geniuses from top-tier forces, incredibly strong, no less so than our Triangle Clan, and perhaps even stronger."

Everyone shook their heads after hearing this, and Liu Ming said with a wry smile:

"We, the Liuren civilization, cannot collect information on many of their geniuses."

The others weren't too discouraged; the Flowblade Civilization was just a decent civilization, not bad for the Triangulum system.

However, when compared to the entire Lieyang Starfield, it is completely inadequate.

Their data collection is naturally not as good as that of the Triangle Group.

Feng Hao, with golden horns on his head, slowly spoke:

"The second round will be even more difficult than we imagined!"

"5432 star systems, and the 16 strongest people in each star system, add up to 86912 contestants, almost all of whom are star system-level geniuses."

Even among the top 16 contestants, there's no guarantee they'll advance!

Only the strongest few have a chance to advance.

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned.

Feng Hao's words made it very clear that among the top 16 in their Triangulum Galaxy, only the strongest few would be able to advance.

Everyone else will be eliminated.

Lin Qi remained calm, though he felt considerable pressure after watching the first match.

Having watched the battles of the eight who advanced for several hours, he was already able to judge their strength based on his keen eyesight.

If it were up to me, defeating any one of them would be difficult, but it's not impossible.

Of course, even if he is killed, he will still have a chance.

By the time of the revival competition, he had already condensed six source veins, so even if he faced the God of War, he would have a fighting chance.

……

Within a spacious virtual space, 5432 regions were divided, each representing a different galaxy.

Each region has its own masters, the rulers of their respective star systems, all of whom are powerful intermediate civilizations.

At this moment, the Blade Master deliberately sat in the region of the Triangulum constellation.

Tianrenliu sat beside him, watching the first match end and the second round of battle begin, and said:

"The second round of the Deep Space Genius Competition has become even more difficult."

"You can already tell a bit about the level of talent from the very first round!"

"And the quality of this edition seems to be higher than that of the previous editions."

"Looking at it this way, even Liu Ming doesn't seem that outstanding!"

The blade master in the green robe shook his head and said, "Liu Ming does have some talent. Although he can't enter the supreme forces, he still has a very good chance of entering the third round."

He needs a little more time!

“I have given him enough source energy crystals. Three years is enough time for him to condense eight source veins.”

"If he can't even get into the third round, then it just means he's a piece of trash."

Others nodded.

After Blade Master finished speaking, he looked at the discussions taking place in other regions of the galaxy.

Among them are a large number of top experts; martial artists at the fourth level of the universe are everywhere, while martial artists at the third level of the universe are less than dogs.

As for martial artists at the second level of the universe realm, there are even more.

As for the top beings of the five realms of the universe, he also sensed quite a few, all of whom were concentrated in one region, namely the region of the advanced civilization, the Blazing Sun Civilization.

In other intermediate-level civilization areas, there were also powerful individuals at the fifth level of the universe watching the competition.

Among countless powerful beings, even he, the strongest being of a civilization at the third realm of the universe, was merely a lackey.

"Indeed, Kamushius is a genius of your civilization, isn't he? Indeed!"

"This year's Deep Space Talent Competition is of good quality!"

"..."

……

At this moment, in the most magnificent area at the center of the virtual world, there are symbols of crimson stars in the sky.

This is the overlord of the Blazing Sun Starfield, the viewing area of ​​the Blazing Sun Civilization. Those who can sit here are all high-ranking members of the civilization.

Of these, only the three realms of the universe can be considered high-level.

Yao Chen, who was tall and had a crimson flame pattern between his eyebrows, sat among them.

He completely concealed the aura emanating from his body.

Although he was among the higher-ups, he wasn't among the strongest. He sensed the vast, black-hole-like aura surrounding him, which belonged to the powerful figures of their Blazing Sun Civilization.

In particular, some of these figures, once unleashed, would possess the power to destroy an entire star system.

Only the Deep Space Genius Tournament can attract so many strong spectators.

However, they will only watch for a few days. The second round is too long, so they will wait for the second mode of the Ten Directions Blood Arena.

It's a competition among 10000 geniuses to determine the strongest few.

……

Two sessions were held every day thereafter, and Lin Qi logged off after watching the first two sessions.

He plans to devote more time to cultivation.

Prepare for your second round of the competition early!
Seven days later

In the living room of residence number 5
After Lin Qi finished eating, his mother, Fang Huiyi, took his younger siblings for a walk in the backyard.

My dad didn't go to work today either. Walking in the yard, he asked curiously:
"Xiao Qi, when does your fourteenth match start?"

Lin Qi glanced at the time and said:

"The first match has been going on for 5 hours, and it will be over in about 2 to 3 hours."

Lin Zhen nodded and said:
"You are the first genius to take the stage on our planet, and countless people across the entire planet are watching your performance."

Lin Qi laughed and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely advance and I won't let you down."

……

Two hours later, the thirteenth round of the Ten Directions Blood Arena came to an end, and the entire Blue Star began to liven up.

Countless families began turning on live streaming.

Official announcements have also begun.

"The fourteenth game is about to start. The previous ten or so games took too long, and I didn't watch them."

"But now that the Golden Emperor is about to take the stage, we have no choice but to watch."

"Our first person to enter the arena can definitely defeat people from other civilizations."

"..."

……

The virtual world of the universe, in the contestant's space.

"Buzz!"

Lin Qi's figure also appeared in the athletes' plaza, where a large number of smart chairs appeared.

"Lynch!"

"Brother Qi!"

Lin Qi saw Jiang Tao, Sun Sheng, Li Tianxing, Shanhe Wang...

Many Sky Realm warriors from Blue Star have gone online.

The God of War, clad in black robes, smiled and said:

"Lin Qi, you're the first one to go on stage from our Blue Star. Everyone's here to see your performance."

As everyone chatted, Liu Ren Civilization also logged on one after another, having come to see Lin Qi's performance.

So they sat in their smart chairs, watched the game, and quietly waited for the next match to begin.

……

One hour later, there are 20 minutes left until 8 hours have elapsed.

On the enormous arena, the eight strongest individuals have all been determined.

"Congratulations to the eight contestants who have successfully advanced!"

"Clap!!"

"Lorraine!!"

Amidst the enthusiastic applause and cheers from the audience, the thirteenth game officially came to an end.

In the player's space, Lorraine, with blood-red horns on her head and a tall figure, was teleported back.

"Lorraine, congratulations on your successful advancement!"

"You are the second genius in our Triangular Civilization to successfully advance!"

Hearing the praise from the crowd, Lorraine, who was exuding a murderous aura, immediately smiled and her murderous intent dissipated.

At the same time, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"The Ten Directions Blood Arena is not so easy to pass."

"There were several powerful geniuses inside, and I almost got killed!"

"The opponent is a top genius of Lieyang Star, who has mastered a sixth-order skill. If there hadn't been only one person left, I would have been killed too."

"Without mastering a sixth-tier skill, one cannot be considered a top-tier expert."

The others nodded in agreement; several of the Triangle Clan's geniuses had already played in the previous thirteen matches.

However, without exception, they were all eliminated.

So far, only Moron has successfully advanced!

Now, including Lorraine, there are only two. In previous Deep Space Genius Tournaments, only the top 5 geniuses from their Triangle Clan had a relatively high probability of advancing.

Feng Hao said, "It's really not right that no one in our Triangle Clan has yet comprehended a sixth-order skill."

"Give me another year or so, and I'm confident I can grasp it."

Everyone nodded. Among the Triangle Clan, only Feng Hao, Luo Lin, and Mo Long are currently able to steadily enter the highest level of power.

……

"Brother Qi, it's your turn!"

While they were discussing, Lin Qi on Lan Xing's side also slowly stood up.

King Shanhe warned, "Lin Qi, be extremely careful!"

"Lorraine of the Triangle Clan was almost killed too, you need to be careful!"

Lin Qi nodded; he also felt a bit of pressure, filled with too much uncertainty.

After he finished speaking, he was enveloped in a blue beam of light and shot into the sky.

Meanwhile, in the other 5431 galaxies, geniuses also successfully transformed into blue pillars of light and rushed onto the arena.

The Azure Sky Galaxy, the Blazing Sun Galaxy, the Feathered Galaxy, the Thunder Radiance Galaxy, the Titan Galaxy, the Heavenly Water Galaxy...

Geniuses from galaxies began to descend upon the Ten Directions Blood Arena. At the same time, countless families across Earth switched to live streaming, attracting over one hundred million viewers.

Meanwhile, at headquarters, the towering Crimson Emperor also started a live stream.

"Three months is a good time to see how much Lin Qi has improved."

……

"Next, let's welcome the 5432nd contestant from the fourteenth round!"

"Boooooooh!!"

On the Blood Arena, 5432 pillars of light descended!
[Lin Qi, you have 30 seconds to choose your combat equipment and weapon!]

Within the beam of light, Lin Qi heard intelligent voice prompts, and a screen was projected in front of him, where he began to select his combat equipment.

He quickly made his selection, which was not much different from the first round of the Deep Space Genius Tournament.

"Buzz!"

Thirty seconds later, the beam of light dissipated, and all the contestants had selected their combat equipment.

They can also see all their opponents around them. The ring is very spacious and can easily accommodate 5432 fighters.

Lin Qi gleaned information from the surrounding opponents, corresponding to what the Flowing Blade Civilization had given him.

I could only recognize a few of them.

Only now did he realize that the information provided by the Flowing Blade Civilization was of limited use in the second round.

Lin Qi sighed; he didn't know who his powerful opponents were.

I can only rely on myself.

He could feel several gazes fixed on him, like ferocious beasts lurking in a dark forest.

When no one knows what they're up to, they'll break through and pounce, delivering their fatal blow.

Lin Qi gripped his spear tightly, his strength beginning to build, ready to strike at any moment.

[Countdown: ... 3, 2, 1]

[The 14th match of the Ten Directions Blood Arena has officially begun!]

[Survivors: 5432/5432]

……

"Dear contestants and audience, the 14th match is officially beginning!"

"Let's wait and see who the final eight contestants will be!"

The host, Sang Qing, also hovered high in the sky, announcing the start of the battle.

"Mota is invincible!"

"Ur, wipe them all out!!"

"Edith, my goddess, you will definitely win!!"

Countless civilized people in the audience erupted in frenzied shouts.

The population of the Blue Star civilization is too small, there are hardly any people at all.

……

"boom!"

"Hoohoo!!"

The moment the intelligent voice announced it, the atmosphere on the Ten Directions Blood Arena became extremely tense, like gunpowder falling instantly.

Various force fields were activated, and a powerful energy wind swept through the air!
"boom!"

A burst of crimson flames erupted from one of the contestants, officially kicking off the competition.

A martial artist, as nimble as a cheetah, pounced out in an instant, locked onto his opponent, and thrust out his sword!

"boom!"

There was a small giant, over five meters tall, wielding a black hammer, unleashing a burst of earthy yellow power that slammed heavily onto the ground.

"You all die!"

"Kaka!!"

The alloy floor, after being hit hard, developed spiderweb-like cracks.

A terrifying shockwave and the power of the domain swept outwards, causing the earth to tremble and hitting several contestants.

The terrifying shockwave instantly severely injured several contestants.

“Puff~~”

He was finished off by other players, a sharp blade piercing his neck, blood gushing out. Several players were instantly killed, their faces filled with disbelief, unable to believe they had been killed so quickly.

There were also mentalists who controlled dozens of silver flying needles, instantly piercing through the air.

With lightning speed, before several opponents could react, he pierced their skulls and killed them.

They were all Sky-Soaring Realm martial artists who had awakened two abilities, and their protective qi was completely unable to defend against the piercing of the flying needles.

Meanwhile, some martial artists wielded sharp double swords, spinning wildly to create blade tornadoes that mercilessly killed nearby opponents.

Within moments, several players had been killed.

There are also mentalists who can cast illusions, instantly trapping the martial artist in a hallucination, piercing their spirit, and causing them to fall to the ground and die.

Such masters are not uncommon; they can unleash carnage with a single move.

"Buzz!"

Among the crowd, Lin Qi's battle also began.

The moment the intelligent voice announced the start, three layers of golden patterns appeared on his body, and golden power emanated from him.

The internal energy, like liquid metal, surged from within and covered the body.

At the same time, his spiritual perception was released, enveloping the entire blood-red arena, and within that perception, the other martial artists also released their perception.

In the air, mental energy collided instantly.

At the same time, he sensed danger; several eyes were focused on him.

"boom!!"

Not far away, a martial artist brandished his battle blade, unleashing a flowing sword aura that condensed into hundreds of sword energies, slashing outwards from his own center.

They were released indiscriminately, regardless of whether they were friend or foe.

Among them was a blade aura slashing towards Lin Qi. He did not choose to cover it, but instead wielded his spear, condensing spear aura to thrust it out.

"Oh!"

The spear thrust out, the energy clashed, and the blade energy exploded instantly, creating an energy storm.

"Chi~"

Amidst the energy storm, a purple figure, like a nimble fish, silently approached Lin Qi.

This is a woman with a lithe figure, wearing purple armor, and seemingly boneless, wielding a sharp sword with the speed and agility of a ghost.

They strike quickly and accurately; if you can't react in time, you'll be severely injured instantly.

But in Lin Qi's eyes, the other party's movements kept slowing down.

The large gun in Lin Qi's hand instantly flipped and shook, his body cells instantly mobilized, and the shockwave was released.

"clang!"

The two weapons clashed, and a terrifying force rippled outwards.

"What……"

The woman in purple armor felt a terrifying force impacting her, and her body was forced backward uncontrollably. The next instant, a golden light flashed before her eyes.

A golden strike!
Lin Qi thrust out his spear with lightning speed, piercing through the purple-armored woman's chest.

"Pfft~"

The spear tip pierced through the opponent, successfully killing him.

……

"Clap!!"

At this moment, everyone on Blue Star was in an uproar after seeing Lin Qi successfully kill someone.

"That was impressive, one kill!"

"It was too fast. I couldn't even see how my opponent made the move. I was on the edge of my seat."

"The Golden Emperor's strength is indeed beyond doubt!"

"Don't get excited. This is only the first opponent we've defeated. Jin Di's goal is to be one of the last eight survivors!"

"Keep watching, I have a feeling that Jin Di will successfully advance!"

……

On the Ten Directions Blood Arena,
Lynch had just successfully killed an opponent and hadn't even had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Boohoo!!"

Feeling like thorns in my back, there were 40 silver throwing knives piercing the air, shooting from all sorts of tricky angles.

In Lin Qi's perception, it was a man with a muscular build and silver skin.

His entire body radiated intense mental energy!
He was a mentalist, and a layer of golden patterns appeared on his body.

He controlled the throwing knives to launch the attack.

“Ding ding!!”

Lin Qi swung his spear, his legs firmly planted on the ground, easily deflecting the flying knife attack.

"Die!"

At the same time, a burly man wielded a giant axe and slashed down at the mentalist.

The mentalist was startled and swung his flying knife to defend himself.

Lin Qi instantly relaxed. She swung her spear, transformed into lightning, and charged towards the two of them.

[Golden Eyes] activated, and in an instant, the optimal attack trajectory was determined.

The "World-Destroying Spear Manual" was unleashed, unleashing a golden light in a four-hundred-hit combo!
In an instant, both of them felt a deadly danger. Golden light flashed before their eyes as Lin Qi frantically thrust out his spear.

“Puff~~”

The two had no chance to resist; bloody holes appeared in their bodies, and they were instantly killed.

In a short period of time, Lin Qi killed two more people.

He looked up at the large screen on the ceiling.

[Survivors: 5003/5432]

……

In just a short time, more than 400 contestants have already been eliminated.

Lin Qi knew that some top experts could kill extremely quickly.

However, as the weaker units are eliminated, the kill speed will decrease.

What he needs to do now is conserve his energy and avoid attacks from skilled opponents.

"boom!"

Just as he was thinking, another figure rushed out, and three layers of silver patterns appeared on his body.

Surrounded by silver lightning, he was a galaxy-level genius.

The other person's gaze also fell on Lin Qi.

……
