My slightest action was the system's limit.

Chapter 204 Amazing Reward (Part 2)

back home.

Jiang Ye sat in the main villa and turned on his phone.

"Beep!" Countless beams of light radiated out, forming a projection in mid-air.

The 4-School Alliance Genius Cup will officially begin on April 20th. Participating schools include: Penglai University, Xinghe University, Beiyu University, and Donghai University.

One by one, the words appeared.

Jiang Ye quickly scanned the area.

As Qiu Zang said before.

Xinghe University and Beiyu University, ranked seventh and ninth among the top ten universities, also participated in the Genius Cup this time.

"The Twenty-Five Schools Genius Cup, some ordinary martial arts universities also participated?" Jiang Ye's expression changed.

This was the first time he had heard of such a thing.

But it's normal.

Teachers like Zhu Honglie and Qiu Zang wouldn't care about students from ordinary martial arts universities, so naturally they wouldn't greet him.

"The Genius Cup has a total of fifty-one schools participating."

Jiang Ye continued looking down.

The Twenty-Five Schools Genius Cup, with the mountains and rivers as its backdrop and the arena as its stage, brings together elites from various schools to select the greatest martial arts talents.

Skip over this nonsense.

Jiang Ye looked at the important 'match rules' section.

The number of participants in this year's Genius Cup is 500.

This year's Genius Cup will be held in the 'Secret Realm of Mountains and Rivers'. Once the competition begins, all 500 participants will be simultaneously teleported to the 'Secret Realm of Mountains and Rivers' to compete for rankings.

[The final 32 contestants were selected to advance to the final round.]

The finals will determine the round of 16, the quarterfinals, the semifinals, and ultimately, the champion!

【.】

Jiang Ye quickly scanned the detailed rules.

Compared to the freshman competition at Penglai University, the Genius Cup has much more complex rules, and it's not just about ring battles.

"A hidden realm of mountains and rivers?"

"The introduction states that this is only a Class D opportunity." Jiang Ye's expression shifted slightly: "During the competition, one might also obtain some treasures that can help with breakthroughs?"

Jiang Ye already knew something about the opportunity.

Hundreds of years ago.

Since connecting with the stars, Earth has discovered numerous treasures and precious lands in the solar system and even other surrounding star systems.

Among them, the Penglai Heavenly Tower and the White Dragon Court are considered treasures.

As for this precious land, it also has another name: 'opportunity'.

"Based on the division of the Blue Star Federation."

"Based on the potential benefits that the treasure land itself can bring, its opportunities are divided into four levels: 'A, B, C, and D'."

"Although it's only a Class D opportunity, it still has many benefits." Jiang Ye was delighted.

For him, no opportunity for advancement is too good to pass up.

It's a good thing that the Genius Cup was held in the 'Secret Realm of Mountains and Rivers' this time.

After all, the previous Genius Cups were not like this.

but.

Jiang Ye could also foresee that the intensity of this year's Genius Cup would likely far exceed that of previous years.

"I guess this is part of the reason why Xinghe University, which ranks seventh among the top ten, participated in this Genius Cup," Jiang Ye thought to himself. "Even a D-level opportunity is a significant chance for improvement for students in the top ten."

Every opportunity has its own limited number of slots.

They need to fight for it!
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been given such a special name as 'chance'.

For Jiang Ye, this opportunity was even more important and he had to seize it firmly.

"Besides that, there are the rewards for this Genius Cup."

“Indeed generous.” Jiang Ye looked at the projected image.

[The finalists of the Genius Cup will be awarded 1000 million Federal Credits]

[Top 16 of the Genius Cup, prize: 20 million Federal Credits]

[Top 8 in the Genius Cup, prize: 50 million Federal Credits]

[Top 4 in the Genius Cup: 100 million Federal Credits and a chance for enlightenment]

[The champion of the Genius Cup will be awarded 3 million Federal Credits, a Jade of Enlightenment, a bottle of Extreme Sea Essence, and a Martial Bone Opportunity.]

A wide variety of rewards were revealed.

"The reward for the champion is astonishing." Jiang Ye took a deep breath.

Putting aside everything else, the 'Uncut Jade of Enlightenment' alone is an unimaginable treasure.

Although it cannot compare to the 'Enlightenment Divine Jade', it is still an extremely rare item.

"Uncut jade can aid in enlightenment, while opportunities for martial arts prowess should help improve physical constitution."

"But what are the effects of this Arctic Ocean Essence?"

Jiang Ye was slightly puzzled.

Fortunately, he soon discovered that there was more information after clicking on it.

【Extreme Ocean Essence: Sourced from the Extreme Ocean Galaxy, it helps enhance martial arts willpower, expand the sea of ​​consciousness, and has excellent pain-relieving effects. It can also be used for high-energy starry sky cleansing (can alleviate some pain)】

"it turns out."

"It can help improve one's martial arts will?" Jiang Ye was greatly surprised.

This was the first time he had ever heard of such a treasure.

"Senior Sister really needs it?" Jiang Ye pondered. "Is it because of the Soul Devouring Syndrome?"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "Senior Bai Gui, do you know about Extreme Sea Essence?"

"I know you." A cool voice echoed in my mind.

"Is this stuff effective against mind-devouring syndrome?"

“It has some effect, but it can only temporarily relieve the pain,” Bai Gui said. “This substance is extremely rare. According to my knowledge, it is unique to the Extreme Sea Star System.”

"Not even the White Dragon Galaxy?" Jiang Ye asked in surprise.

“It’s very rare, mostly produced from the Polar Sea Galaxy.” Bai Gui shook his head and said, “It’s called ‘Polar Sea Original Liquid’ because it’s unique to the Polar Sea Galaxy.”

"Understood." Jiang Ye nodded.

Does Chen Zilu need the Extreme Sea Essence?
It's probably used for pain relief.

"What kind of pain is this?" Jiang Ye couldn't help but wonder. "Does it require something that's rare even in a Level 3 civilization to barely alleviate?"

No reason.

He felt sorry for the girl.

Whenever Chen Zilu saw Jiang Ye, she always had a smiling expression, showing no signs of pain.

But who could have imagined that the other party would silently endure this for more than a decade?

"We must win the championship!" Jiang Ye took a deep breath.

Putting aside the Extreme Ocean Essence, the 3 million Federal Credits were also incredibly tempting to him.

"Personal wealth." Jiang Ye tapped on his phone.

Look at the wealth page.

Bank balance: 2

Campus Points: 186 million

"In the past two months, my expenses have exceeded ten million." Jiang Ye sighed to himself, "Since breaking through to the second breakthrough, I've been spending money like water."

This is still due to the use of Zhao Qingli's channels.

Now he knows that the other party's family business offers very cheap prices through internal channels.

It's about 50% of the market price, and 10-20% cheaper than through school channels.

Otherwise, Jiang Ye would have spent far more than ten million in the past two months.

"Fortunately, the harvest was quite fruitful." Jiang Ye suddenly smiled.

Look towards the panel.

[Technique]

Nine Stars Stepping on the Stars: Great Success (10%)
Great Sun Spear Technique: Mastery (55%)
Heavenly Tribulation Fist: Mastery (9%)
White Dragon True God Scripture (Part 1): Beginner (19%)
Piercing Star Arrow Technique: Beginner (50%)
Cold Sun Spear Technique: Minor Success (50%)
-

Looking at the impressive data panel, Jiang Ye couldn't help but smile.

This is what he has gained in the past two months!
What impressed him most was undoubtedly the progress of the 'Cold Sun Spear Technique'.

"now."

"My self-created spear technique has reached a perfect framework, and all that's left is to practice it." Jiang Ye thought to himself, "Although it's only at 50% completion, its power already far surpasses the Great Sun Spear Technique."

The reason why Hanyang's spear technique has improved so quickly.

The main reason is that it is derived from the 'Great Sun Spear Technique', so with a foundation, improvement is naturally faster.

From complete beginner to proficient, it only took a little over a month.

Of course, the Enlightenment Jade also played a crucial role in this.

Without this 'divine object,' Jiang Ye would never have been able to break through to the minor mastery level in such a short time.

Not to mention achieving even a modest 50% success rate.

"Me now."

"If this were two months ago, I would have been able to crush ten of myself, right?" Jiang Ye smiled. "Unless all the buffs are activated, I am far superior to myself now."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel full of anticipation and confidence for the upcoming Twenty-Five Schools Genius Cup.

suddenly.

"Buzz!" The cell phone rang.

"Is this Teacher Zhu?" Jiang Ye answered the phone.

"drop!"

A projection of a red-haired old man appeared.

"Jiang Ye," Zhu Honglie smiled at Jiang Ye, "Have you received the schedule and rules for the Genius Cup?"

Jiang Ye nodded: "Just received it."

"For this Genius Cup, you only need to focus on the four schools that are your opponents."

Zhu Honglie said, "Xinghe University, Beiyu University, Donghai University, and Nanyang University."

Jiang Ye's heart stirred.

Xinghe University and Beiyu University are both among the top ten.

Tunghai University and Nanyang University are among the most outstanding universities in the 25-university alliance.

Its level is only slightly lower than that of Penglai University.

"Of course, with your current strength."

“Sweeping through most people is not a problem,” Zhu Honglie said with a smile. “Your opponents are the top-ranked contestants from these four schools.”

"I've sent you their information."

While they were talking, Zhu Honglie sent him a document via V-Chat.

Jiang Ye immediately opened it to check.

[Star River University: Li Qi, mid-stage of the second breakthrough, mastery of mid-level Earth-rank swordsmanship, near-perfection of high-level Profound-rank footwork, and mastery of high-level Profound-rank fist techniques.]

[Northern Region University: Lin Qingxue, Mid-stage of Second Breakthrough, Mastery of Lower Earth Rank Sword Technique, Mastery of Upper Profound Rank Footwork, Upper Profound Rank]

[Donghai University: Wang Bo, Mid-stage of Second Breakthrough, Mastery of Lower Earth Rank Spear Technique, Mastery of Upper Profound Rank Fist Technique.] [Nanyang University: Shen Haoyue, Mid-stage of Second Breakthrough, Mastery of Upper Profound Rank Saber Technique, Mastery of Middle Profound Rank Footwork.]

His eyes swept over.

The top-ranked contestant from these schools is basically at the mid-stage of the second breakthrough.

Moreover, he has mastered many advanced Xuan-level cultivation techniques!
"Li Qi." Jiang Ye's gaze sharpened: "You possess a mid-level Earth-rank cultivation technique that you have mastered?"

This should be the strongest of the four.

"Surname Li?" Jiang Ye's heart suddenly stirred.

He remembered that the golden-eyed woman in his dream seemed to be from the Li family.

I don't know if the two are related.

"Eno."

"How about it?" Zhu Honglie asked with a smile, "Are you confident you can get into the top three?"

"Top three?" Jiang Ye looked up at his teacher and smiled, "Teacher knows that my goal is the championship."

"Haha."

"Okay!" Zhu Honglie nodded, his eyes filled with anticipation, and said, "I'm waiting for you to make that a reality."

"Also, in the days leading up to the Genius Cup, you can go to the second floor of the Penglai Tower."

"Perhaps there will be unexpected gains," Zhu Honglie said meaningfully.

"The second level of the Penglai Heavenly Tower?" Jiang Ye was taken aback.

He immediately realized what was happening.

indeed.

After he breaks through to the second level, he can attempt the second level of the Penglai Heavenly Tower assessment.

If I can pass this level, I might be able to improve significantly in a short period of time, just like I did on the first level.

"Teacher," Jiang Ye asked, "what is the challenge on the second level of the Penglai Heavenly Tower?"

"It's similar to the first floor," Zhu Honglie said. "You'll see when you get there."

"Okay." Jiang Ye nodded. "Then I'll go over now."

moment.

Hang up communication.

Jiang Ye made some preparations and immediately went out, flying towards the Penglai Tower of the school.

With his current strength, passing through the second level of the Penglai Tower shouldn't be too difficult for him.

Just as Jiang Ye was attempting to pass the second level of the Penglai Heavenly Tower.

Xinghe University is located in another province of the ten eastern provinces.

Inside an incredibly luxurious villa.

"The strongest players in this Genius Cup." A young man with purple hair sat on the sofa, watching the projected image in front of him.

"Jiang Ye, Lin Qingxue, Wang Bo, Shen Haoyue?"

"Teacher," the purple-haired youth Li Qi asked, puzzled, "who is this Jiang Ye? How come he's ranked ahead of Lin Qingxue?"

“Jiang Ye is from Penglai University,” the white-haired old man next to him replied.

"You need to pay close attention to this person."

“Take a close look at his file,” the white-haired old man said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Li Qi immediately opened Jiang Ye's detailed page.

One by one, the data was revealed.

"From Taishan Province, Anseong?"

"An ordinary family. This is the strongest student from Penglai University?" Li Qi suddenly laughed.

"Don't underestimate him," the white-haired old man said in a deep voice. "Your information is outdated."

"The latest information shows that two months ago, Jiang Ye obtained two high-grade Heaven-rank inheritances at Bailong University."

"His strength and potential are both extremely astonishing," the white-haired old man said in a deep voice.

"High-grade Heavenly Rank? Two kinds?" Li Qi was surprised.

But he quickly calmed down.

"A top-tier Heavenly Rank inheritance, extremely difficult to cultivate."

“Given his ordinary family background, he won’t improve much in two months.” Li Qi squinted and said slowly, “I will defeat him.”

He stared at Jiang Ye's name, his eyes gleaming.

I don't really care.

How much trouble can a poor boy from Ancheng stir up?

The champion of the Genius Cup has always belonged to the scions of elite families.

There may be changes, but it's just an exchange between one aristocratic family and another.

Northern Territory University.

A martial arts room.

“Jiang Ye, Li Qi?” Lin Qingxue, dressed in a black dress, stood holding a sword: “These two are equally skilled as me.”

"To defeat them, my Meteor Sword Technique must be brought closer to perfection."

"Strive to become stronger."

"Win the championship!"

Whoosh!
Lin Qingxue moved swiftly, practicing in the martial arts room. Every sword strike she unleashed was like a blizzard, its power terrifying beyond measure.

"I, Wang Bo, am determined to finish in the top three."

"Even if we can't defeat Li Qi and Lin Qingxue, we must defeat Jiang Ye."

"This proves that my Tunghai University is no worse than Penglai University!"

Hakuryu University.

Inside a spacious practice room.

"Xiao Chen, didn't you say you didn't like decorations?"

"Why are you wearing a necklace?" A handsome young man with silver hair leaned against the wall with one hand, looking at the girl in the white dress not far away.

When the girl saw him, she didn't reply, picked up the gun, and prepared to walk out.

"Whoosh!"

The silver-haired youth flashed and appeared in front of the girl.

"Xiao Chen, I'm here to inform you."

"The Star Passage in the Polar Sea Galaxy will be open soon," the silver-haired youth said. "If you go, remember to call me."

Chen Zilu frowned slightly.

"Zhou Xingkong".

"I don't like you, don't waste your time." Chen Zilu stared at him and said, "Also, don't call me Xiao Chen, we're not close."

"Move aside," the girl said calmly.

The silver-haired youth shrugged and then stepped aside.

Chen Zilu didn't even glance at him before stepping out the door.

The silver-haired youth, Zhou Xingkong, watched her retreating figure, stroked his chin, and pondered, "Could she like this style of necklace? I'll try it next time."

Outside.

As soon as Chen Zilu stepped out, a girl in a blue dress hurriedly flew over.

"Zilu".

"Zhou Xingkong is here again?" the girl in the blue dress said breathlessly. "I was just about to tell you."

Chen Zilu glanced at her; the girl in the blue dress was named Zhao Yingluo, one of her few close friends.

She had borrowed tens of thousands of yuan from him when she was in Ancheng.

"It's nothing," Chen Zilu shook her head and said, "Let's go."

The two walked outside together.

"That Zhou Xingkong guy is like a persistent ghost," Zhao Yingluo couldn't help but say. "He's always bothering you."

"Doesn't he know you hate being disturbed?"

Chen Zilu smiled and said, "It's alright."

Do you hate being disturbed?

She does have some degree of it, but it depends on the person.

For example, someone used to contact her privately every day, but she never felt annoyed.

Unfortunately, that blockhead hasn't contacted her much these past two months, let alone every day.

Speaking of that piece of wood...

"Is the 25 Schools Genius Cup going to start soon this year?" Chen Zilu asked her friend.

"It seems so." Zhao Yingluo nodded and said, "Why do you care about this? The Genius Cup has nothing to do with us."

Students at Hakuryu University are all focused on the 'All-Star Battle'.

The Twenty-Five Schools Genius Cup? I've never cared about it.

"It just suddenly came to mind," Chen Zilu said with a gentle smile.

"Ok?"

"It's not because of that boy you helped in Ancheng before, is it?" Zhao Yingluo asked curiously. "I remember he seemed to have gotten into Penglai University."

As Chen Zilu's good friend, Zhao Yingluo now knows about Jiang Ye's existence.

"It's not because of him," Chen Zilu snorted.

"Really?"

"Do you have his WeChat?" Zhao Yingluo asked curiously, "Can you add me?"

"What do you want to do?" Chen Zilu asked her friend, puzzled.

"What are you doing? Flirting with a junior?"

“I saw him when he came to Bailong University last time.” Zhao Yingluo chuckled. “He’s so handsome. Since you don’t want him, I’ll give him to me.”

Chen Zilu's face turned cold, and she raised her small foot to kick him: "You dare!"

"Hum hum!"

"You're getting angry out of embarrassment." Zhao Yingluo laughed and dodged away: "Still saying it wasn't because of him?"

"You're never serious." Chen Zilu rolled her eyes at her: "Go back to your cultivation!"

She didn't say anything more, seemingly worried that her friend would continue to press her for answers. With a swift movement, she transformed into a streak of light and flew away into the distance.

in situ.

"Zilu, she definitely has something going on with that guy." Zhao Yingluo chuckled and then flew forward.

time flies.

Jiang Ye was naturally unaware of the various events happening outside.

He was currently on the second floor of the Penglai Heavenly Tower.

They are receiving the vast gifts of Penglai.

That's right!

Just half an hour.

Jiang Ye has completed the assessment for the second level of the Penglai Heavenly Tower and received an amazing reward!
His strength has once again risen rapidly.

　I think I caught another fever from the last one, and I'm currently at the hospital getting an IV drip. I need to take a day off; I really can't update today. Please give me some monthly votes to cheer me up! *sobs*
