Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 183 The Battle of Geniuses Comes to an End

"That's incredibly strong! Berlan didn't even have the ability to resist!"

"Yang Wu actually unleashed the fourth level of the Overlord Spear technique! This is simply unbelievable!"

"Yes! The gap between the two of them is too great! This gap isn't reflected in their understanding of the laws, but in their application of them!"

"That's right! These two have roughly the same understanding of the laws of space, perhaps slightly better than Bolan, but Yang Wu has already grasped the essence of the laws of space, so the difference isn't significant! Bolan has already incorporated his understanding of space and wind into his movement techniques, which is terrifying enough. But unexpectedly, Yang Wu is actually able to unleash the fourth level of the Overlord Spear Technique!"

"The Overlord Spear technique perfectly blends Yang Wu's understanding of the two fundamental laws of fire and space, far surpassing Bolan's agility. His defeat was not unjust!"

"Indeed! To be able to unleash the fourth level of the Overlord Spear Technique at the Hengxing level—what astonishing comprehension would that require?"

After watching this final battle, thousands of immortals were now engaged in heated discussions.

Understanding the fundamental laws is the foundation for advancing to higher levels, but it is not the only factor in combat power.

Secret techniques, equipment, amplitude, willpower, combat experience, and other factors can all influence the outcome of a battle.

Although Bolan's understanding of the fundamental laws of space is indeed profound, surpassing most realm lords and even comparable to some immortal powerhouses, his application of the spatial laws is mostly reflected in his movement techniques, while his application in other aspects is still quite crude.

And Yang Wu? In terms of movement alone, he is not much weaker than Bo Lan, and his defense and attack far surpass his.

Even if Yang Wu hadn't used the fourth level of the Overlord Spear technique, it would only have been a matter of time before he defeated Bolan.

It's no surprise that he crushed Berlan after using the "Sun and Moon Divine Spear".

"I don't know if you've noticed, but Yang Wu's mastery of power is the highest among all the geniuses! In my opinion, his physical exertion is at least over 80!" another immortal being suddenly said in a deep voice.

"What? That's impossible!"

Upon hearing the immortal's words, countless great beings immediately began to recall every battle Yang Wu had fought, only to suddenly realize that what the other party said was true!

"This...this is terrifying!" an immortal with long, flowing purple hair exclaimed. "Doesn't he have any weaknesses?"

As we all know, the paths of mental master and martial artist are the most mainstream paths to becoming a strong person in the universe.

For a controller, the most important foundation is the amplitude of mental power; while for a martial artist, the most important foundation is, of course, the power exerted by the body.

Reaching a power level of 100 is a prerequisite for a Realm Lord to break through and become an Immortal.

Perhaps some geniuses possess astonishing comprehension, grasping the laws of nature as easily as eating and drinking. But when it comes to generating physical power, aside from innate talent, it requires daily, relentless practice.

Ordinary Hengxing-level martial artists can generally exert 20-30 units of force, while some elites within the Hengxing level can exert 40 units. Geniuses selected from the Genius Battle can generally exert 50 or 60 units of force.

Given time, these geniuses will have no problem reaching 100% of their potential.

But all of that requires a lot of time.

"Even for core members of the Virtual Universe Corporation, it would probably take hundreds of years to achieve eighty times the power, right?"

"Yes! Eighty times the power—even among realm lords, that's quite impressive!"

"Ever since the Genius Battle, we've been amazed by Yang Wu's incredible comprehension! But we never imagined he would also achieve such astonishing success in the fundamentals!"

"The geniuses of these four secret realms have all been selected. This year's selection battle for the pinnacle of human geniuses in the universe has come to a perfect end."

The man in the cyan battle robe smiled and said, "Your generation of geniuses is exceptionally outstanding! I hope that, decades or even centuries from now, some of you will be renowned throughout the entire universe."

After speaking, the man in the cyan battle robe suddenly looked at Yang Wu with a meaningful gaze.

Yang Wu left a very deep impression on him during this battle of geniuses. It is unknown whether the two will become master and disciple in a few years.

Of course, since the other party's future is uncertain, he will not interfere.

Then, the man in the cyan battle robe shifted his gaze and continued speaking to the crowd: "Later, someone from my Virtual Universe Company will contact you to take you to my Virtual Universe Company's universe headquarters! Gather there, and then you can head to the 'Initial Universe'."

"From this day forward, your path will no longer be ordinary!"

"My Virtual Universe Company will provide you with substantial support to help you grow into powerful beings! As for whether you become renowned super beings throughout the universe, ordinary strong individuals, or perish along the way, that depends on yourselves!"

"Keep up the good work, kids! Your path to becoming strong has only just begun!"

The gentle voice of the man in the blue battle robe echoed in everyone's mind.

And this year's Genius Battle has officially come to an end!

……

After the battle of geniuses ended, everyone, from the high and mighty Venerable One to the thousands of other immortal beings, left immediately.

For them, the battle of geniuses has reached this point, and their mission is complete.

Of course, among those immortal beings who have departed, some are happy, while others are depressed.

The happiest of them all was, of course, the immortal scaled giant led by the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

Because in this battle of geniuses, not only did the Qianwu Universe Kingdom return with a full harvest, but he himself also made a fortune.

Although 10,000 Chaos Units are insignificant to the Scaled Giants, this wager is certainly a good topic of conversation.

In short, this battle of geniuses will be a valuable experience for him for a long time to come.

After many powerful figures left, Yang Wu and a thousand other geniuses remained in the central square.

A staff member from the Virtual Universe Company called out, "Please don't leave yet! We need to discuss taking you all to our Virtual Universe Company's headquarters!"

A moment later, Yang Wu and the others were led by staff to the conference room on the second floor of Restaurant No. 2 in the Central Plaza.

A staff member named Mana smiled and asked everyone to fill in the accurate planet address so that the Virtual Universe Company could arrange a spaceship to pick them up and take them to the Virtual Universe Company's headquarters.

Luo Feng filled in the address of Bai Lan Star as in the original work, while Yang Wu directly filled in the address of Rhine Star.

Several years ago, Yang Wu made a promise with his senior brother Latte to meet each other before heading to the Initial Universe.

Now, it's time to fulfill our promise!

"I wonder if Master and my senior brothers already know that I've achieved the number one ranking in the universe!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

Years ago, Yang Wu had told his teacher, Jin Guanghou, that he would definitely work hard.

Now, he has done it!

……

Once everyone's identity information was collected, the virtual universe system immediately calculated the best transportation plan, determining that the entire transportation process would take approximately three years.

This result surprised all the geniuses.

Because the distance between these geniuses and the headquarters is the furthest, approximately 15 billion light-years.

The fact that it can arrive in just three years is truly terrifying.

This is because Virtual Universe Corporation, as the most powerful force among humans, provides all geniuses with F-class spaceships.

The highest speed that Yang Wu could achieve in the dark universe with his own Class D spaceship was only a few times the speed of light.

However, the spaceships sent by the Virtual Universe Company are all special models with technological content far exceeding that of the major space nations. Their flight speed in the dark universe can even reach 50 times the speed of light!

After arranging the pick-up and drop-off plan, the staff distributed the prize money that Yang Wu and others had won in the Genius Battle.

Among them, Yang Wu is a member of the Primordial Secret Realm, and his reward is 10,000 Hunyuan Units; while Luo Feng is a member of the Primordial Secret Realm, and his reward is 1,000 Hunyuan Units.

After everything was arranged, people began to disappear from the conference room one by one, and everyone left.

Thank you to reader "墨染离魂殇" for the 300 points reward.
