Chapter 1333: The Arrival of Moon Shadow! Are You Really Only 25?

"Could these 100 arenas not be randomly assigning competitors?"

"It's possible—if all the super prodigies who've comprehended the Laws are grouped onto one arena, wouldn't we get a free pass?"

"Whoa, now that you mention it, that actually sounds viable!"

"......"

After a moment of silence, numerous prodigies began whispering among themselves.

As they said, this was a battle royale of 108,000 competitors.

If competitors were truly assigned randomly, they might actually have a chance to sneak through.

But soon someone scoffed in rebuttal:

"What are you thinking? Our strengths were already recorded during the preliminary rounds."

"Plus, our training records in the virtual universe are also logged."

"All this data is combined and fed into a Level-5 AI for allocation."

"It's impossible to cluster all top-tier geniuses together, let alone with the Eternal Star Alliance's AI allocation."

"There's no way to sneak through—you can only hope the arena doesn't have too many monsters."

As soon as he finished speaking, the prodigies all suddenly understood.

Indeed, if they had access to the competitors' data,

the Eternal Star Alliance would never place all contenders with potential to enter the top 100 onto the same battle arena.

"Unlike the preliminaries, this second stage of the competition"

"will no longer keep everyone's physique and spiritual force at the same level—it will mirror reality."

The towering figure in midair announced again.

"Perfect! My spiritual force is stronger than an ordinary Starlight Rank Nine! Finally, it'll be useful!"

"Hah! I focus on physique—I can tank T7-level combat techniques with just my body!"

"My spiritual techniques will be far more powerful now!"

"......"

Competitors from all cosmic empires wore expressions of delight.

The preliminaries kept everyone at Starlight Rank Nine,

but that stripped away individuality—this new rule finally lets prodigies fight at full strength.

Of course, the happiest among them was Xu Jingming.

"My physique and spiritual force are both around seven billion."

"Even with celestial treasures, ordinary Starlight Peak cultivators max out at six billion."

"Just in attributes, I'm already one billion higher—they've got nothing to match me with."

Xu Jingming's gaze flickered slightly.

This was the advantage of the system!

It could break through limits, reaching levels ordinary cultivators could never touch.

This point,

he was confident even the monstrous Luo Yi couldn't achieve.

"The match begins in one hour. During this time, you may rest in the buildings behind you."

The green-robed elder's voice echoed through the air, then his figure flashed and vanished.

Simultaneously, the void at the continent's edge twisted violently.

Tens of thousands of grand silver-gray towers erupted from the ground.

Each stood a hundred meters tall, their surfaces glowing with faint blue energy patterns, radiating high-tech aesthetics.

The Star Torch Empire's team leader, "Demon Blade," raised his hand.

The smart armbands of a thousand prodigies lit up simultaneously, displaying their room numbers.

His cold gaze swept over them as he said calmly:

"Free movement. The match begins in one hour—you'll be teleported directly to the arena."

Before he finished speaking, his figure dissolved into a streak of black light and vanished into the horizon.

The sovereign-level powerhouses from other cosmic empires chose similar actions.

With the departure of the sovereign-level powerhouses, some invisible restraint seemed lifted—the entire continent instantly erupted in chaos.

"Form teams! In arena brawls, you must cooperate!"

"All brothers from the Crimson Flame Empire's star region, gather!"

"Those good at defense, come here! Compensate for each other's weaknesses!"

"If your strength is lacking, make up for it with numbers! In the brawl, prioritize taking out the freaks who've mastered the Laws!"

"......"

Chaotic shouts erupted everywhere.

There were no other restrictions in the arena brawl—to avoid elimination or being killed by the strong, forming alliances was the best strategy!

Within the Star Torch Empire, many prodigies began forming alliances.

Even reaching out to prodigies from other cosmic empires.

They agreed that if assigned to the same arena, they'd target the strongest first.

"Xu brother, many from our Star Torch Empire have already teamed up with prodigies from other empires—will you join us?"

Steve looked around and asked.

"No, they can't stop me," Xu Jingming shook his head.

"That's true, but you can rest completely assured."

"If you're paired with our Star Torch Empire's competitors, they absolutely won't team up against you."

Steve chuckled.

Xu Jingming is the only hope for our Star Torch Empire to enter the top thousand of the cosmic rankings.

Even if Xu Jingming achieves his goal, all of us will receive rewards.

So naturally, they could never let this hope be shattered.

As they spoke, Xu Jingming suddenly felt a frost-cold gaze settle upon him.

He looked up and saw a silver streak gliding gracefully from the horizon, slowly landing not far away.

The silver radiance faded, revealing a woman with hair like a waterfall of silver.

Her silver hair reached her waist, shimmering with a silk-like luster under the starlight.

The ends of her hair curled slightly, swaying gently with her movements.

Her skin was as white as snow, as if carved from solidified moonlight, so fine not a single pore could be seen.

Her gray eyes, like frost, were cold and distant, with slightly upturned corners, exuding innate nobility and pride.

Her nose was high and straight, her lips a vivid red.

Her ears differed from those of ordinary humans—slightly pointed, adding an exotic charm.

At her ear tips hung a small silver earring, swaying gently with her breath, glinting faintly.

She wore a form-fitting silver-white battle suit that accentuated curves that stirred the blood.

Her full chest stretched the fabric into a breathtaking arc, her slender waist easily encircled by a hand.

Below, her hips curved into a rounded silhouette, and her long, beautiful legs, encased in the suit, appeared taut and powerful.

"It's Moonshadow! The Elf Princess!"

"Whoa, why is she here?"

"Of course you forget her grudge with Xu Jingming?"

"..."

The prodigies of the Star Torch Empire all turned their gazes toward her.

Even they, accustomed to beauty, could not help but hold their breath.

Moonshadow's beauty was not merely exquisite—it carried an almost divine cold elegance.

Noble, distant, untouchable...

Yet her figure was exceptionally voluptuous, with a slender waist.

Her chest and hips were astonishingly full; the curves of her body, hugged by the tight battle suit, were enough to make any man's heart race.

Cold elegance and sensuality merged perfectly in her, making one dare not stare directly, yet unable to resist glancing.

She walked forward with each step exquisitely graceful.

Her silver hair fluttered lightly, as if surrounded by a faint glow of moonlight.

Finally, her slender figure came to a stop before Xu Jingming.

"Bloodkill, it really is you."

Moonshadow opened her crimson lips, her voice like ice water flowing.

A month ago, she had already heard the news that Xu Jingming was Bloodkill.

But back then, she had not been certain.

Now, seeing him, the familiar silhouette instantly confirmed it.

Xu Jingming was indeed the Bloodkill who had defeated her!

"Princess, what instruction do you have?" Xu Jingming raised his swordlike brows.

"Nothing much, I just want to confirm—are you truly only twenty-five?"

Moonshadow fixed her beautiful large eyes directly on him and asked.
