Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 153 The Beginning

Time passed day by day.

The four seasons cycle and alternate, and day and night never cease.

Since gaining the strength to pass the first level of the Heavenly Bridge through simulation, Yang Wu did not dare to show it all at once, but instead revealed it little by little.

Even so, Yang Wu's amazing progress still greatly excited his teacher, Jin Guanghou.

It's important to understand that comprehending the laws becomes increasingly difficult as you progress.

Take the Tongtian Bridge as an example. A genius might be able to pass through the first level of the Tongtian Bridge in one or two years, but if he wants to pass through the second level, it might take him more than ten years.

But what about Yang Wu in Jin Guanghou's eyes?

Since Yang Wu crossed the threshold of the Laws in the Canglan Star Realm, his progress has been astonishing. There are only about a dozen people in each Genius Battle who are more talented than Yang Wu.

However, during this period of time, Yang Wu's progress has even surpassed that of countless geniuses that Jin Guanghou had ever seen. He is no less than those legendary geniuses who appear only once every tens of thousands of epochs!

If Yang Wu hadn't stayed by Jin Guanghou's side all this time, he probably would have thought that Yang Wu had been possessed by someone else!

In this way, Yang Wu continued to demonstrate the insights he gained from the simulator.

One month, two months, three months...

Finally, the date arrived: March 9, 2066, Earth time.

On this day, Yang Wu was in the core area of ​​Flame Mountain comprehending the laws of fire when Latte suddenly barged in, relying on its peak Domain Lord level strength.

"Huh?" Yang Wu exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the latte, "Senior brother, you've crossed the threshold of the Laws?"

With Latte's strength, entering the core area of ​​Flaming Mountain in a short time would not have any impact. However, he once said that he would never enter the third core area of ​​Flaming Mountain without crossing the threshold of the laws.

So when Yang Wu saw the latte, he thought it meant that Yang Wu had finally made a breakthrough.

"You think I'm like you, comprehending laws as easily as drinking water!" Latte rolled her eyes at Yang Wu and said irritably, "It's because the Universal Genius Battle is about to begin, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered coming in to find you!"

Although Latte said that, he was even more excited than Yang Wu!

He is now over 20,000 years old and has watched the battles of peerless geniuses and peak experts several times.

While watching the battle, the sons, princes, and other descendants of these important figures from the Qianwu Universe Kingdom would often gather in groups of two or three.

In previous years, disciples of other kings and marquises, or geniuses from their territories, would always break into the top 1,000 in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom. However, since Marquis Jin Guang was the most recent of the 300 kings and marquises in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom to be granted a marquisate, no genius under his command had yet been able to break into the top 1,000 in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

Therefore, whenever Latte watches a game, she is always ridiculed by others to some extent.

But this time, it's Latte's time to shine, how could he not be excited?

Latte had already learned about Yang Wu's strength from Jin Guanghou. Based on the part of strength that Yang Wu had already shown, he was already capable of breaking into the top 100 in the universe.

Such strength would undoubtedly make them number one in previous Qianwu Universe Kingdoms! After all, even within the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, no one has broken into the top 1,000 in the overall universe rankings for dozens of years.

Latte will definitely be one of the main characters when watching this game!

Because his junior brother Yang Wu, a peerless genius whom he personally recommended to his father, will surely shine brightly in this battle of peerless geniuses!

"It's finally here!" Yang Wu smiled slightly; he had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

"Yes, junior brother, your chance to shine has finally come! When you break into the core of the Virtual Universe Company, don't forget your senior brother!" Latte teased with a smile.

……

With a thought, Yang Wu's consciousness immediately appeared on Black Dragon Mountain Island in the virtual universe.

At this moment, Black Dragon Mountain Island was shrouded in darkness, but in the sky above, an enormous black notice board radiating dazzling light appeared.

On the huge, entirely black notice board, there were white characters that emitted a dazzling light.

"Universe Humanity - Battle of Ultimate Geniuses!"

"Once in a million years!"

"Coming soon!"

"This is a grand event jointly hosted by Virtual Universe Company and various intergalactic nations!"

"You're a genius? You can't find any rivals of your level and rank? Then come and participate in the 'Peak Genius Battle'! Here, you'll face fierce battles against billions of geniuses selected from countless nations across the universe!"

"For details on the Genius Battle, please visit the official website of Virtual Universe Company through the virtual assistant."

The moment Yang Wu saw this document, which was over a million miles long and wide, everyone on countless continents in the virtual universe also saw this enormous notice with perfect clarity.

Subsequently, all of humanity in the virtual universe erupted in excitement.

Among the human race in the universe, there are two of the largest selection battles!

The first is the "Universe Humans - Battle of the Pinnacle Geniuses", and the second is the "Universe Humans - Battle of the Pinnacle Strongest".

Among them, the Peak Genius Battle is open to star-level geniuses from countless universes across humanity. As long as you are a star-level human, you can sign up to participate!

The Battle of the Peak Warriors is open to all cosmic-level powerhouses from all human cosmic nations. Only those with cosmic-level strength are eligible to register for the battle!

These two elections can truly be called a grand event for the entire human race!

The territory of humankind is vast and boundless, but apart from these two major events, there are usually few things that can comprehensively involve such a wide territory.

Therefore, these two major events naturally hold an extremely special place in the human world.

"Haha, is the legendary battle of ultimate geniuses about to begin? I never thought I'd witness such a legendary battle of ultimate geniuses before I die!"

"Yes, the Peak Genius Battle is held once every five thousand years, and only star-level powerhouses can participate. For ordinary cosmic citizens like us, seeing it once in a lifetime is already considered very good!"

"If only this battle of geniuses could have been held a hundred years later! A hundred years from now, I'm sure I'll be able to reach the Eternal Star level!"

……

"I've heard that ranking in the top 1,000 across the entire universe grants an incredibly amazing reward?"

"Yes! The Peak Genius Battle is held twice every ten thousand years. Once at the Virtual Universe Company, and once at the Giant Axe Arena! This year's Peak Genius Battle is hosted by the Virtual Universe Company, so the rewards are sure to be extremely high!"

"Haha, I am the strongest in the Kata Galaxy! This time, I will definitely represent the Kata Galaxy and break into the top ten thousand of the Pengyu Empire!"

……

"I can't believe it! Five thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye! I wonder how many geniuses have emerged in my Kuren Universe Kingdom now, and whether anyone will be able to break into the top one thousand!"

"A disgrace! The last Genius Battle was an absolute disgrace to our Kuren Universe Nation! Out of 1008 universe nations, ranked in the top 1000 overall, not a single genius from our Kuren Universe Nation was selected!"

"Hmph, if no one manages to break into the top 1,000 this time, I'm afraid those teachers in the Holy Land who are responsible for instructing geniuses are in for a rough time!"

……

"Is this year's Genius Battle being hosted by Virtual Universe Company again? I remember it was Virtual Universe Company that hosted it last time. Shouldn't it be Giant Axe Arena's turn this time?"

"Master, you've been resting for over eight thousand years!"

"I see! Sigh, I've lived too long; time means absolutely nothing to me!"

"I wonder if any of the geniuses under my command will be able to break into the top 1,000 in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom this time?"

In the virtual universe, every continent representing the "Cosmic Nation" and every island representing the "Cosmic Intermediate Civilization Nation" had a huge floating notice above them, each announcing the upcoming "Cosmic Humanity - Peak Genius Battle".

In a short time, all of humanity active in the virtual universe learned of the news, and then it spread like wildfire, reaching every corner of the universe.

From ordinary planetary citizens to immortals with eternal lifespans, everyone is filled with anticipation for the upcoming battle of the ultimate geniuses.
