Humans are devouring, drawing cards from all realms, starting with Yang Jian.

"but......"

Manlu continued.

"With your talent, you are the strongest in my Black Dragon Mountain Empire, but that may not be the case in the headquarters of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom."

"There are more geniuses there, the competition is fiercer, and you might not be able to achieve much."

Manlu said seriously.

"I'm not afraid of competition at all. I wonder if Lady Manlu could explain to me what I'll be doing after joining the company? What are my obligations?"

"If you join the Virtual Universe Corporation of my Qianwu Universe Kingdom, with your current strength, you will need to obey the company's orders, train, undergo life-or-death trials, and so on. As your strength increases, your freedom of choice will also increase."

"Manluo said."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ming immediately shook his head.

Strictly managed?

How can he possibly perform well?

"Lord Manluo, I can't accept this kind of training method. I think I should wait until the Peak Genius Battle starts before joining your company. I'll go to the Qianwu Dojo first. I heard that the Qianwu Dojo is not so strict."

Jiang Ming seemed to be getting up.

"Don't rush, what I just said was 'internal members'. Our Virtual Universe Company is divided into internal and external members. Internal members have more benefits and are subject to stricter management."

External members have more freedom, but fewer advantages.

Manluo was not surprised by Jiang Ming's rejection; he did not believe that a genius like Jiang Ming could accept strict management.

"Even as an external member, you can still enjoy the same training provided by my Virtual Universe Company. Moreover, if you become a 'Purple Crystal Elite,' even as an external member, your treatment will not be worse than that of an internal member."

"Manluo said."

"Amethyst Elite?"

"Our Virtual Universe Corporation of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom will classify geniuses into Amethyst, First Crystal, Second Crystal, and Third Crystal. However, the requirements for each level are very strict. Every Amethyst elite is a super genius who has the potential to become a core member of our Virtual Universe Corporation."

"With your abilities, you're qualified to be recognized as a 'Second-Tier Elite'."

"Manluo said."

"I don't know how this level is determined?"

Jiang Ming didn't think he could only be a 'second-tier elite'. The strength he showed earlier was only because his opponent was too weak, and he didn't have to use his strongest moves.

"The headquarters of the Virtual Universe Corporation of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom is located on 'Amethyst Island' on the Qianwu Continent. There is a seven-story trial tower on the island. Passing the first floor makes you a three-crystal elite, passing the third floor makes you a two-crystal elite, and you need to pass the sixth floor to become an amethyst elite."

"Manluo said."

He also knew a little about Jiang Ming, and knew that he hadn't shown his true strength before.

Even so, Manluo didn't think he had the strength of a Purple Crystal Elite.

But there's a possibility of becoming a "Crystal Elite".

"I wonder if I'm eligible to participate in the trial?"

Jiang Ming asked.

"Of course, let's go now."

Manlu stood up.

"It's been a long time since I've been to the head office."

"Now?"

Jiang Ming was taken aback.

"So when do you want to go?"

As Manlu spoke, she raised her hand and waved it, and a virtual screen appeared out of thin air. She quickly tapped a few times on the screen, and a moment later, a pale blue light gate appeared in the meditation room.

"Let's go, this is the teleportation channel to the Qianwu Continent."

Manluo was the first to step into the portal of light.

Jiang Ming took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and quickly followed.

The moment he stepped through the gate of light, he felt a dizzying sensation, as if his entire body had been torn apart and then reassembled.

This feeling lasted only a moment. When he came to his senses, he was already standing in a completely unfamiliar city.

The sky here is a deep purple, with a huge sun hanging on the horizon, radiating a soft light.

In the distance, towering amethyst buildings stood side by side, and occasionally streaks of light could be seen streaking across the sky—those were powerful figures flying.

"This is Amethyst Island, the core area of ​​the Virtual Universe Corporation of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom."

Manluo spoke to Jiang Ming, pointing to the central building in the distant complex. It was a crystal palace tens of thousands of kilometers high, and the most dazzling one.

"In that palace are the three most powerful giants of my Qianwu Universe Kingdom's Virtual Universe Corporation, each of whom is a powerful figure who has been granted the title of Marquis among the Immortals."

"Manluo said respectfully."

Jiang Ming looked around and was amazed by the architecture on Amethyst Island.

This island is no less large than Black Dragon Mountain Island. Every building on this enormous island is made of amethyst, and it looks incredibly beautiful under the sunlight.

"Let's go, come with me to the Trial Tower."

Manluo got up and flew up, carrying Jiang Ming as they flew quickly through the Purple Crystal Island.

.......

The Purple Crystal Island was enormous. Even with Manluo carrying it, it took more than twenty minutes of flying before a majestic purple tower finally appeared in the distance at the edge of Jiang Ming's sight.

The tower is made entirely of amethyst and has seven floors, each reaching a height of 10,000 meters, resembling a divine pillar supporting the sky.

"This is the Trial Tower."

Manlu said to Jiang Ming.

"The rules of the trial are very simple."

"Manluo said."

"Each floor of the tower has a guardian. Defeat him to advance to the next floor."

The strength of the gatekeepers increases with each level.

"In the past 10 million years, the Virtual Universe Corporation of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom has produced fewer than 5000 Amethyst Elites, averaging only two every 10,000 years."

Manlu looked at Jiang Ming, "Do you still think you can easily become a Purple Crystal Elite?"

Jiang Ming did not answer, but simply took a step forward.

.......

Not long after Jiang Ming stepped into the tower gate, an old man in purple robes appeared beside Manluo.

"Manluo, it's been a long time."

The old man in purple robes laughed.

"What, has your Black Dragon Mountain Empire finally produced a promising talent?"

"He is indeed a promising talent, and may become a 'Crystal Elite'."

Manluo had a smile on her face.

"A Crystal Elite?!"

The old man in purple robes was immediately startled.

"Is he really a top-tier elite?"

"Hahaha, just you wait and see."

Manlu wasn't entirely confident either, but he guessed that Jiang Ming definitely had some trump cards up his sleeve.

"Then I'll have to take a good look."

The purple-robed elder also became interested, as it had been a long time since a "One-Crystal Elite" had appeared on Amethyst Island.

Before long, a huge projection screen appeared in front of the two of them, showing Jiang Ming's situation in the Trial Tower.

.....

Stepping into the first floor of the tower, a vast plain stretched out before me. The sky was overcast, the sun nowhere to be seen, only endless desolation.

In the middle of the plain, stood a person.

It was a middle-aged man dressed in black, holding a long sword, with a cold and stern face. Upon seeing Jiang Ming appear, he slowly raised his sword.

"Trial participant, defeat me to enter the second level."

The man was surrounded by lightning, and the surrounding space was subtly stirred by the lightning.

"Four levels of domain?"

Jiang Ming's gaze also became more serious. The opponent on the first level actually had the fourth level of the Domain. No wonder only two Amethyst Elites appear on average every ten thousand years.
