Zerg Lord of the Devouring Stars

It was late at night.

The residence of Luo Feng in Jiuxing Bay.

On the rooftop.

Jiang Chen, Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen sat at the round table, watching the arrangements for the final battle on the arena in front of them.

"This is not a good situation," Hong said solemnly.

"Of these 10,000 participants, only 522 have stepped into the threshold of the Laws. After four rounds of battles in this arena, only 625 will be selected. All 522 should get a spot," Thor said in confusion. "But this Virtual Universe Company actually allows Law geniuses to meet?"

During the preliminary world battles, many people hide their strength or are ranked low for various reasons.

However, in the chaotic battle on the arena, everyone used their full strength, so it can be judged that there are now 522 people who have crossed the threshold of the Origin Law.

There are 625 slots available. In theory, anyone who has crossed the threshold of the origin of the laws should be eligible for a slot, but the virtual universe has not done so.

Most law-level experts who fight four consecutive battles do not need to meet other law-level experts and should be able to easily obtain a spot.

However, a small number of nearly a hundred law-powered experts will still meet each other.

For example, Jiang Chen! For example, Luo Feng!

Both of them will face off against geniuses who have crossed the threshold of the Origin Laws in the fourth match.

Luo Feng's opponent was someone Hong was familiar with: a female warrior who had entered the fundamental laws of water, possessed sharp and unpredictable swordsmanship, had a fiery figure, and whose eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Jiang Chen's opponent is Rong Jun, whose nickname is Wild Man.

Wild Man Rong Jun, during the chaotic battle in the arena, was, besides Jiang Chen, the most outstanding genius contestant alongside Luo Feng.

He once swept aside many geniuses in the arena, slaughtering them all along the way.

"According to this grouping, nearly a hundred Law-level experts will meet in the final fourth battle," Hong nodded and said. "Moreover, these nearly a hundred people are the ones who performed the most fiercely in the arena battles."

"Wild Man" Rong Jun, "Hunter" Jiang Chen, "Madman" Luo Feng, and so on—these are the group of law geniuses who were able to clash in the end, and they were the ones who performed the best in the arena battle.

"These nearly one hundred people should all be among the top tier of Law-level experts," Hong said solemnly. "The fact that the Virtual Universe Company has brought them together is clearly a test for them."

"Even the defeated will have the opportunity to participate in the Cycle Battle. There are fewer than 50 Law Powerhouses who will enter the Cycle Battle, while there will be 275 spots for the defeated group. Even if they lose, they can still obtain a spot through the Cycle Battle."

"Yes." Jiang Chen nodded. "The Virtual Universe Company also serves as a test and training ground for geniuses who excel in the laws of nature."

"Whether it's top-tier head-on clashes or the 9374 battles of the Cycle War, they all have a training effect." Hong nodded slightly.

Thor looked at them solemnly, "Yes, for the two of you, the first to the third battles were no challenge at all. The fourth battle, however, will be more challenging, and it's still uncertain who will win."

January 23, 2066 (China Time).

In the virtual universe, on island number 29909, within the dimensional space of the Giant Axe Arena, a duel between geniuses is about to begin.

"Ladies and gentlemen, standing on the stage now is the genius expert 'Vasero' from the Horned Dragon Star Region." As his loud and clear voice echoed throughout the arena, cheers like a surging wave immediately erupted from the audience.

Hundreds of millions of viewers from the Horned Dragon Starfield were thrilled, cheering and shouting for Vasero.

"Vassero!"

"Vassero!"

"Victory! Victory!"

The excited cheers of hundreds of millions of people shook the arena.

Both sides' home star systems will receive 100 million tickets for the final battle in the arena.

So of the billion viewers watching today's battle, two hundred million are from the Horned Dragon Starfield and the Black Dragon Mountain Starfield.

"Next up is—the peerless genius from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire—Jiang Chen!!!" The commentator's voice was even louder than before.

The commentators for the ring showdown were also biased towards Jiang Chen. Anyone with a little knowledge could see that there would be no suspense in this first match.

"Jiang Chen!"

"Jiang Chen!"

"Jiang Chen!"

Not only were hundreds of millions of people in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire cheering excitedly, but most of the other 800 million viewers from other star regions of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom were also cheering for Jiang Chen's name.

Jiang Chen's performance in the arena battle, as well as the subsequent commentary from various commentators, made countless viewers in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom love and even admire Jiang Chen.

Amidst the gaze of millions, Jiang Chen walked along the entrance passage and onto the arena's fighting platform.

Only two young men stood on the arena. One was Jiang Chen, a black-haired young man carrying a patterned black spear and wearing a dark black battle suit.

And there was "Vasero," a burly figure wielding a large battle sword, his brow furrowed.

"I really didn't expect that I would run into Jiang Chen, the most popular player from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, in the first arena battle." Vasero frowned, thinking to himself, his eyes fixed on Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen stood still, a smile on his face, casually holding the spear.

"Two contestants."

The handsome and stylish commentator smiled and said, "Similar to the rules of group battles in the arena, your fighting space will continue to shrink as the battle progresses."

"In just five minutes, the battle space will shrink to a diameter of one meter. So your battles will last a maximum of five minutes."

"Hmm," Vasero replied casually.

"Okay." Jiang Chen nodded slightly.

"Then---the battle begins!" the commentator said with a smile. As soon as he finished speaking, he vanished, leaving only two opponents on the stage.

Jiang Chen could tell that Vasero was quite nervous, and he immediately distanced himself when the battle began.

As the battle drags on, the space for combat will shrink, forcing players to engage in combat.

However, Jiang Chen was unwilling to waste time in the first match, so he immediately rushed towards Vasero.

"Such speed! The speed is terrifying after entering the Origin Law." Vasero's pupils shrank when he saw Jiang Chen's speed. In his eyes, this super speed was almost invincible.

The arena was originally 30 kilometers in diameter, but it will continue to shrink over time.

With Luo Feng and Vasero's speed, they could reach the very edge of the battle space in the blink of an eye.

Vasero, however, ran to the edge of the ring ahead of time and kept circling around the edge, trying to create distance.

"You don't think you can win like this, do you?" Jiang Chen thought to himself, and suddenly sped up his pace again.

"This is the time to die! Die!!!"

Vasero roared inwardly, then reached out and threw two streaks of light at Jiang Chen.

The speed was incredibly fast, and the flight speed was terrifying.

"What is that?" Jiang Chen was also startled and used his spear to block the two streaks of light.

"Clang!" "Clang!"

The two streaks of light were blocked and fell to the ground. They turned out to be two long silver needles, which were hidden weapons from the universe.

Throughout Earth's history, countless hidden weapons have appeared, and in the universe, with a vast number of martial artists, various hidden weapons have naturally been developed as well.

"What? Such a fast reaction, and it can block that?" Vasero was shocked.

He had never used this hidden weapon technique before, nor had he used it in the melee of the arena. Only now did he decide to use it to launch a surprise attack and take a gamble.

However, it was resolved so easily.

"It's over." Vasero's expression changed drastically as he watched Jiang Chen approach rapidly.

"Plop!"

The spear moved with incredible speed, transforming into a streak of light that deflected his broadsword before piercing right through his brow.

Jiang Chen wins the first battle!
