Chapter 6: Star-Level Sequence Battle – One Roar Annihilates the Enemy!

"I wonder how much the power of a secret technique will increase after comprehending the essence of a law?" Lu Ming wondered, then suddenly opened his mouth slightly.

"Roar~"

A deafening, earth-shattering lion's roar suddenly echoed in the empty training room, lingering for a long time.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that the 'Lu Ming' who had been sitting cross-legged had disappeared, replaced by a vibrant, golden, thunderous lion-like monster!

At this moment, the incredibly realistic golden lion demon beast was roaring to the sky, its entire body covered in golden lightning!

"Sizzle—" Lightning energy gathered wildly, and the golden lion beast swung its right forepaw and slammed it hard into the hard ground in front of it. "Boom!" In an instant, the hard floor shook violently as if a major earthquake had occurred!

"This power is completely different!" As the one who used this move, Lu Ming could clearly feel the increase in the power of this secret technique.

"This is merely the essence of a law..." Lu Ming thought to himself in admiration. The incredibly realistic golden lion demon beast quickly dissipated, revealing Lu Ming's original body. At this moment, a hint of joyful smile appeared in his eyes. "Following the most essential 'riotous' characteristic of the fundamental law of lightning has indeed made my secret technique attacks even more powerful!"

"Master, you have a new important email. Please check it." In the cultivation room, Lu Ming originally planned to go to Teacher Zhenlei Hou immediately, but after seeing this email, he changed his mind.

"Sequence battle? I've never participated in one before." Lu Ming clicked on the void, and a screen appeared out of thin air, displaying the important email that Alice had just reminded him to receive.

The email's title was "Star-Rank Battle".

The geniuses within the Jinlan Dojo are divided into five tiers, from lowest to highest: Third-Tier Elite, Second-Tier Elite, First-Tier Elite, Special-Tier Elite, and Seed Elite. Among these, only geniuses rated as Special-Tier Elite or higher can remain within the genius cultivation system at the Jinlan Dojo headquarters.

However, being rated as a "top-tier elite" or "seed elite" doesn't mean they can stay in that position permanently and rest easy. Every so often, they will face a "qualification assessment," and those who fail will undoubtedly be "eliminated."

Of course, while some are eliminated, others rise through the "qualification certification." For example, a top-tier elite genius at the Eternal Star level can advance to become a "seed elite" through this "qualification certification" channel if they step into the threshold of the Law Origin. Moreover, the "qualification certification" in the advancement mechanism can be applied for in advance.

In addition, all the top-tier elites who pass the 'qualification certification' are also seeded elites, and can participate in a competitive mechanism called 'Sequence Battle'.

The so-called "sequence battle" is a series of battles between all geniuses of the same level, which ultimately determine the ranking of "first", "second", "third"... tenth.

A higher ranking naturally translates to more training resources from the Golden Orchid Dojo.

As for Lu Ming, being a "seed elite" who was parachuted in, he hadn't actually participated in this "sequence battle" before. After all, even the lowest level, the Constant Star Sequence Battle, only opens once every ten years.

"Generally speaking, the reward for first place in each ranking battle is just so-so. However, the one I'm participating in this time is rather special..." The reason it's special is that the Peak Genius Battle, which only takes place once every five thousand years, is coming soon.

The battle of the universe's top human geniuses is something even the King of Jinlan Kingdom values ​​highly. Lu Ming has no doubt that the performance of this group of Hengxing-level geniuses in the upcoming sequence battle might be reported to the King of Jinlan Kingdom by Zhenlei Hou and others.

"If I can attract the attention of the King of Jinlan..." Lu Ming began to ponder in his heart, thinking about how he could attract more of the other party's attention.

As for the sequence battle itself, among the star-level geniuses, no one can compete with him for first place.

……

Five days later.

"Lu Ming, let me see how much progress you've made in the last two years, you monster!" The green-browed youth, Saga, stretched out his finger and pointed lightly.

snort~

A screen appears.

What appeared on the screen was Lu Ming's live video of the sequence battle.

Meanwhile, on the side of the screen, there is some information related to the battle—a Star-level sequence battle, Lu Ming vs. Rudy.

"boom!"

Lu Ming only felt the surrounding space shift, and then instantly landed on a place—the surface of a desolate white planet. The swirling snow distorted his vision slightly. Furthermore, this planet possessed a terrifyingly strong magnetic field, making him feel very uncomfortable.

"There it is!"

Stepping onto the solid ice, Lu Ming quickly spotted his opponent in this battle.

"Swoosh~" A fiery red figure was seen rushing in the distance, each step shattering large areas of the solid ice beneath its feet. In a moment, it had already rushed to Lu Ming and stopped in front of him. Its eyes were fixed on Lu Ming, filled with fighting spirit.

This person was only about 1.6 meters tall, with a lean body and fiery red curly hair. He was none other than Rudy, one of the elite seeds of the Hengxing level. He was a genius who had stepped into the threshold of the Flame Origin Law at the Hengxing level, and his cultivation time was much longer than Lu Ming's.

"Lu Ming, this is your first time participating..." Rudy had a pair of eerie green eyes like a wolf, and his voice was very hoarse, as if he wanted to say something before the battle began.

"Don't waste my time!" Lu Ming crossed his arms, wearing only a suit of armor, without manifesting any Force or psychic weapons.

"Fighting bare-handed? Don't underestimate me!" Rudy blushed with anger at Lu Ming's behavior. He stopped talking and quickly drew his sword from his back. With a clang, the sword was drawn!

"Lu Ming, don't think you're so great just because you've been accepted as a disciple by Marquis Zhenlei!" Rudy roared in a low voice, then stomped his foot on the ground, causing the ground, which was made of solid ice, to tremble violently and shatter. He then transformed into a burning meteor and rushed towards Lu Ming at high speed!

Looking indifferently at the enraged Rudy charging towards him, Lu Ming maintained his arrogant posture with his arms crossed.

"This guy, is he not even going to use his fists?" Not only Rudy, the person involved, felt offended, but even Saga, who was watching the live stream, frowned.

"He's not even using his fists. How does this little guy plan to defeat his opponent? A soul attack?" Unlike Saga and the others, the other 'mentors' watching the battle were more curious about Lu Ming's next fighting methods.

"drink!"

As Rudy closed in on Lu Ming, he instantly stomped on the ground, using the recoil and his own flight power to rapidly press towards Lu Ming. His right hand gripped a crimson battle blade diagonally. "Die!"

A sharp glint flashed in Rudy's eerie green eyes as he prepared to strike the moment he closed in on his opponent.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Rudy noticed Lu Ming's movement out of the corner of his eye. The other person... had slightly opened his mouth?

"Roar~"

The next moment, a powerful roar of a lion suddenly resounded throughout the heavens and earth, even piercing through the swirling snow and carrying far away!

Rudy, who was directly in front of the sound, instantly changed his expression!

"Roar~"

The deafening roar of the lion continued endlessly. After passing through the wind and snow, the sound seemed to have subsided slightly, but it still swept past Rudy's body in an instant.

"Whoosh!" An invisible sonic wave vibrated into his body, and Rudy was momentarily stunned.

At that moment, his body felt as if boiling water had been poured onto snow, and the next second he completely lost consciousness.

"Thud!" Rudy's body fell heavily onto the snow.

"The gap between you and me now is too great." Lu Ming looked at the other's corpse, his eyes calm, and said silently, "You couldn't even withstand my sonic attack."
