Chapter 1339: The Entire Arena Shook! Advancement!

Xu Jingming stood atop the desert sky.

Golden lightning swirled around his entire body, like a Lei Shen emerging from ancient mythology.

In his hand, the tip of the Abyss Spear was wreathed in golden lightning, and the aura of destruction still clung to its shaft.

Behind him, the black-golden Lei Shen manifestation, a thousand meters tall, slowly dissipated.

But the pressure that had shaken heaven and earth still lingered in the air, plunging the entire battlefield into deathly silence.

Whether the ten trillion spectators in the stands.

Or the other contestants still waiting to enter the arena.

All now held their breath, staring blankly at that agile figure.

"Boom—"

Until the cold, icy Talent Battle announcement echoed across the desert sky:

"Xu Jingming of the Star Torch Empire, winner of the Arena Brawl, has successfully advanced to the One-on-One Arena Match of the Cosmic Human Talent Battle!"

As the words fell, silence shattered—the entire audience erupted in chaos!

"Instantly killed three Law geniuses! How is this possible?!"

"Too strong! Baderly, Maolin, and Jiar were each the top prodigies of their own cosmic empires!"

"They're all Law experts—why is Xu Jingming this powerful?!"

"Took on three at once and killed them instantly? Good heavens, am I dreaming?!"

"......"

Shouts of shock, disbelief, and awe intertwined into a single roar.

Countless eyes fixed on Xu Jingming, as if trying to rediscover this prodigy from the Star Torch Empire.

Soon, the Star Torch Empire's spectators were the first to react, unleashing a tidal wave of cheers!

"Lei Di! Invincible!"

"Hahaha! Our Star Torch Empire has finally produced a true monster!"

"This is the power of the Abyss King! Even three Law geniuses joining forces were crushed!"

"......"

The Star Torch Empire's spectators flushed crimson with excitement.

Some even stood from their seats, wildly waving flags of the Star Torch Empire.

In past Talent Battles, the Star Torch Empire had never ranked higher than one thousandth in the cosmic standings.

But now, Xu Jingming's dominant performance had shot them straight into the top one hundred!

And with unmatched prestige—he advanced by defeating three opponents at once!

"Why is Xu Jingming this strong?"

A spectator from the Thistle Empire couldn't help speaking up.

The Thistle Empire was among the veteran great powers of the Human Cosmic Realm.

Maolin's defeat filled them with profound regret.

"Pay attention—he just used Thunderstorm Art at Perfect Mastery!"

Someone beside him immediately explained.

"Perfect Mastery?"

Those around him froze, then asked in confusion:

"For geniuses like them, isn't it normal to reach Perfect Mastery in combat arts?"

"Do you even know anything?"

The explainer sneered, "Thunderstorm Art isn't an ordinary combat art—it's a T6-level combat art!

The cultivation threshold requires entering the Law realm—and the Law realm itself is extremely hard to master.

Many who have awakened the Law still spend thousands of years just to perfect a single T6-level combat art!"

"Hss—"

At these words, everyone around drew a sharp breath, their eyes filled with shock.

At twenty-five, he had not only awakened the Lightning Law and perfected the Domain of Destruction.

But also achieved the peak of a T6-level combat art!

This... this wasn't just an ordinary genius—it was a true monster!

In the VIP lounge.

Masters from countless cosmic empires now wore expressions of astonishment.

"A T6-level combat art at Perfect Mastery at age twenty-five? Xu Jingming's insight is terrifying."

"In terms of insight, Xu Jingming may be the only genius to appear in our Human Cosmic Realm in a million years."

"In this Talent Battle, only Roy might rival him."

"......"

Amid the murmurs, the usually cold-blooded Blade of Demon smiled faintly, a rare glint of amusement in his eyes.

"Looks like I underestimated him."

He had originally thought Xu Jingming's limit was the top five hundred in the cosmic rankings.

But judging from his performance now, he absolutely has the potential to break into the top ten!

"Ha! I won! Xu Jingming actually took first place!"

"Tch, a bet's a bet—I'll give you the Star Pearl when we return."

"No need. I'll come collect it myself."

The female sovereign who won the bet was in excellent spirits.

She then turned to Mo Ren, smiling as she said with a hint of envy:

"Mo Ren, it seems your Star Torch Empire will indeed produce a peerless prodigy."

"Hmm, perhaps he truly can create a miracle."

Mo Ren nodded slightly, his gaze deep.

The only regret was that the Emperor would likely never have the chance to take Xu Jingming as his disciple.

Contestant area.

Compared to the frenzy of the audience seats, the prodigies from the various cosmic nations now fell into an eerie silence.

They had assumed this arena brawl would be a fierce battle among the four Law prodigies.

But they never expected that, in the end, Xu Jingming would sweep all three away with overwhelming dominance!

"This Xu Jingming… is absurdly strong!"

"Bardley and the other two together couldn't even hold out for half a minute?"

"As fellow Law powerhouses, the gap is far too vast."

"……"

Many whispered among themselves, their eyes filled with wariness.

In the region of the Elf Cosmic Nation, Yue Ying stood motionless.

Her gray-stone-like eyes narrowed slightly, and a look of disbelief surfaced on her fair, delicate face.

"Perfect Destruction Domain… Perfect T6-level combat technique…"

Her crimson lips parted, her voice as cold as ice, yet unable to conceal the shock within.

She had thought her own Perfect Life Domain would give her the upper hand over Xu Jingming.

But she never imagined Xu Jingming had grown this strong.

"Stay calm—our domains are both perfect."

The only thing to watch out for is his Perfect-level Thunderstorm Technique.

That Thunderstorm Technique is an area-of-effect combat skill; its single-target damage is actually quite low.

Bardley and the others lost because their higher-tier domains were vastly inferior to Xu Jingming's.

But I am different…"

Yue Ying took a deep breath, and her hesitation quickly hardened into resolve.

The recent immersion in the Life Water not only perfected her Life Domain.

It also made her elf bloodline purer and greatly strengthened her power!

She refused to believe Xu Jingming could defeat a version of herself like this!

The audience was stunned, and Xu Jingming himself, as the protagonist, felt a similar sense of awe.

The power of the Perfect-level Thunderstorm Technique had indeed surpassed his expectations.

Had the Thunderstorm Technique not nearly obliterated the true forms of Bardley and the other three,

he would not have been able to instantly kill them so easily.

And this was only the Perfect-level proficiency of a T6 technique.

What kind of power would the T4-level Perfect proficiency of "World-Ending Lightning Cannon" possess?

"But all that matters for one-on-one arena matches."

I doubt there will be many left by then who can force me to use a T4-level technique."

Facing the gaze and voices of trillions of spectators—some stunned, some encouraging—

Xu Jingming's lips curled slightly upward; his figure flashed away, leaving the arena area entirely.
