Swallowing the Stars: Heart of the Martial God

Chapter 35 I think the virtual universe system should directly recognize me as number one.
The rivalry between the two did not affect the course of the match.

In just over five minutes, the 3600 matches were decided, eliminating half of them.

Half an hour later, the second round began.

Of the 3600 geniuses, half have fallen again, while the other half continue onward.

……

In another half hour, after resting and getting ready, the third round will begin.

These 1800 peerless geniuses are all incredibly eager, and they are only one step away from the final victory... However, only one person from each arena can enter the core layer of the Giant Axe Martial Arts Arena, while the other must be eliminated.

In the end, only 900 figures remained on Giant Axe Square. The others were teleported back to their respective universe continents by the virtual universe system as soon as the battle ended.

A thousand geniuses gathered together, many of whom were considered to be among the top ten or twenty, or who believed themselves to be among the top geniuses, and they were all watching the others.

"congratulations!"

A cold, stiff voice entered the minds of a thousand people. The voice of Venerable Beiyan appeared in front of them, "You are the 1000 most outstanding people among the 1000 universe nations of the human race in this year's Genius Battle. Our Giant Axe Arena will also do its best to train you. If anyone does not want to enter the Giant Axe Arena, you can say so now."

Silence. No one uttered a sound.

"very good."

“However, you should understand that competition exists forever in the universe, and there is competition everywhere. It is impossible for you 1000 people to receive the same treatment and training resources. Even my Giant Axe Arena would not dare to waste such precious resources.” Venerable Beiyan said indifferently with a stern expression, “I will make an announcement.”

"Among these 1000 people, the 101st to 1000th will receive a bonus of 10 Hunyuan units, the opportunity to enter the Initial Universe for enlightenment, and the opportunity to join the core of my Giant Axe Arena, the 'Divine Edge Secret Realm'."

"Those ranked 11th to 100th will receive a reward of 100 Chaos Units, the opportunity to enter the Initial Universe for enlightenment, and the opportunity to join the core of my Giant Axe Arena, the 'Heaven-Opening Secret Realm'."

"Third to tenth place winners will receive a prize of 1000 Chaos Units, the opportunity to enter the Initial Universe for enlightenment, and the opportunity to join the core of my Giant Axe Arena, the 'Divine Beginning Secret Realm'."

"The first and second place winners will receive a prize of 10,000 Chaos Units, the opportunity to enter the Initial Universe for enlightenment, and the opportunity to join the core of my Giant Axe Arena, the 'Giant Axe Secret Realm'."

“Normally, the ‘Giant Axe Secret Realm’ only admits one person per session. However, your level is quite outstanding this time, so after discussion, the highest level of the Giant Axe Arena has granted you two spots to enter the ‘Giant Axe Secret Realm’.”

“Among you 1000 people, there are still differences in strength, so the resources you receive will certainly not be the same for everyone.”

"The final battle in the arena will begin tomorrow to determine the final rankings," Venerable Beiyan said, unusually speaking a few more words. "The rules for the final battle have already been sent to each of you, so you should all rest well today."

boom!
After Venerable Beiyan finished speaking, he disappeared immediately, and only then did the 1000 powerful immortals begin to talk.

"The Giant Axe Secret Realm actually recruited two people this year, but our Cosmic Kingdom probably has little hope. The gap between Yan Shen and Yan Mo, who broke through the Trial Tower, is too great compared to the others."

"Yes, yes, it's really their misfortune to be in the same class as such a genius. If it were in a previous class, our Cosmic Fruit's Caster would definitely have been able to break into the Giant Axe Secret Realm." Someone said with resentment.

"Come on, among the top ten, Feng Lishuang should be the strongest. As a martial artist, she made it to fourth place, second only to Leng Yanqiu, and the difference in their scores is not much."

"Not necessarily, others might be holding back."

……

While these powerful immortals were discussing who was stronger and who was weaker, everyone else was looking at the rules that had been handed to them.

After seeing these rules, some people were speechless.

One of the rules was that the virtual universe system would directly select 100 strong individuals from the 900 geniuses who had just finished three rounds of elimination to have one-on-one duels with the previous top 1,000.

The 100 victors are qualified to enter the 'Secret Realm of Creation'.

The remaining 900 people all entered the 'Divine Peak Secret Realm'.

From the 100 victors, the virtual universe system determines the top 20, who then engage in one-on-one battles to determine the final ten.

Faced with such arbitrary decisions, based entirely on rules determined by the virtual universe system, many people immediately broke down. Some declared they were absolutely certain of making it into the top ten, especially those whose names weren't on the list of one hundred, who immediately cried out that it was unfair.

"Why should we trust the virtual universe system so much? I'm absolutely confident I can make it into the top 100, or even the top 10. Why can't we even have a fair chance to compete?"

"It's unfair! It's unfair!" someone nearby shouted.

"That's not fair!"

"Let's really fight it out, and whoever loses will be eliminated. That's the only fair way. Otherwise, we won't accept it!" More than ten young people from various universe countries shouted.

"If you have to blame someone, blame yourself for being too weak!" Cao Benqi sneered. He never missed any opportunity to show off. "The weak only need to be dominated by the strong."

“You…” The people blushed instantly, like a boiled shrimp.

"You're not convinced? In reality, I could kill all of you trash with a single strike of my halberd. The fact that the virtual universe system has given you the opportunity to stand on the same stage as me is already the greatest favor. How dare you ask for more?" Cao Benqi's aura surged, making the others tremble with fear.

"Hmph!" Venerable Beiyan snorted coldly, and his powerful aura erupted instantly, causing everyone present, whether geniuses or immortal powerhouses, to feel a chill.

"You dare to question the great virtual universe system?"

The man tried to explain, but couldn't utter a sound.

"Remember, even if you doubt your own brain, don't doubt the virtual universe system. Even we universe masters feel incredibly insignificant in the virtual universe. How dare you, a mere star-level kid, question the virtual universe system?"

The voice of Venerable Beiyan was extremely cold, just like his face, which was as hard as stone, as if the Grim Reaper had descended.

"Any more objections? I've said it before: if you don't want to join the Giant Axe Arena, you can leave now. I don't want to say it a fourth time."

The audience was completely silent; no one dared to contradict the majesty of a cosmic sage.

Some people are dissatisfied with the virtual universe, but that's because the virtual universe system can't speak. The universe venerable one is different; not only can he speak, but he can also kill.

"Since there are no further objections, let's disband." Venerable Beiyan snorted coldly and left.

The others on the field then breathed a sigh of relief.

"What idiots! If super geniuses like Cao Benqi and Ling Xuan, who have passed the Trial Tower, offered their opinions, they might be taken seriously. But you, the outermost members of the core layer, want to question the higher-ups? Don't forget, the Genius Battle is held once every five thousand years, and each session must absorb at least a thousand people. The Giant Axe Arena has existed for countless epochs, and there are countless geniuses like you in the Giant Axe Arena." Blood Sword Marquis's tone was extremely cold, but there was also a hint of undisguised smugness in his words.

"I think the virtual universe system should directly recognize me as number one," Ling Xuan whispered to Blood Sword Marquis.

"Ahem~" Blood Sword Marquis looked around awkwardly, hoping that no one else had heard him.

My ancestor, I just praised you and now you've embarrassed me. You're the one who's the ancestor. Can't we talk about this in private?
Unfortunately, the bursts of laughter around him completely ruined his plans.

However, these immortals, who were incredibly powerful in the face of other geniuses, did not refute Ling Xuan. Those who could break through the Trial Tower would easily achieve far greater success than them in the future, as long as they did not perish.

This speed could even be extremely fast.

"Show-off." Ren Yaoli rolled her eyes at Ling Xuan.

The top 100 geniuses chuckled softly, instantly easing the tense atmosphere.

Cao Benqi glared angrily.

the first?

First place is mine!

mine! ! !
