Chapter 507: Fifth place! The last day!

~7 min read 1,346 words

After killing the Awakened below, Xu Jingming landed from the sky to the ground.

He looked at the smart arm guard on his left wrist.

"Name: Xu Jingming (Daxia)

Zone: Competition Zone 73

Points:

Rank: 6

..."

"Still sixth place?"

Xu Jingming frowned, "The further back it goes, the more difficult the ranking rise seems to be..."

The four Rank 5s killed at the very beginning allowed his ranking to soar from outside 100,000 to 54th.

But the few thousand points gained after killing Awakened just now didn't even make him rise a single place.

After pondering for a moment, Xu Jingming quickly figured out the reason.

The match has reached the eighth day, and most of the points are on the top powerhouses.

Without killing these top Awakened, just killing some ordinary contestants, it's impossible to gain too many points.

"Continue killing! Let's see if the five contestants ranked ahead can force me to use Thunder Extreme Mode."

Xu Jingming's eyes burned with scorching fighting intent as he continued to step forward.

The preliminary round had already reached the eighth day, but the opponents he encountered were all very weak.

Except for Wang Mang, he hadn't encountered any other Rank 6s.

Only needing to use Doushen Doushen Shenlei and some ordinary combat techniques was enough to kill these people.

He hadn't even used Thunder Extreme Mode, let alone the use of the stronger Thunder Storm Mode and the Extreme Radiance Thunder Ring.

The 1,000-square-kilometer area of the entire Competition Zone 73.

Xu Jingming using his thunder dragon wings at full strength would only take less than a day to sweep through.

But the thunder dragon wings consume a lot, so it's impossible to use them all the time.

In addition, he also needs to spend time killing Awakened or finding a place to rest and recover ability.

Although it's in the virtual world, the physical strength is the same as in reality; when tired, one needs to rest.

But even so, by the ninth day of the preliminary round, Xu Jingming had almost swept through a quarter of the area of the entire Competition Zone 73.

However, he had only encountered one Rank 6 Awakened.

After killing him, Xu Jingming's ranking finally rose from sixth to fifth.

The ninth day of the preliminary round, 11:59 PM.

The night sky was pitch black, and a drizzling rain was falling.

Xu Jingming walked on the city streets, the golden thunder lingering on the surface of his skin isolating all the rain outside.

Blood flowed on the surrounding streets, the smell of blood permeated, and almost every few dozen meters, a corpse could be found.

In order to pursue the most realistic simulation, after a contestant is killed, the corpse does not disappear but remains in place as in reality.

After nine consecutive days of slaughter, of the 1 million people in Competition Zone 73, less than a thousand remained!

The remaining people all became corpses, thus forming this scene.

The smell of blood drilled into his nostrils, but it didn't make Xu Jingming feel uncomfortable; instead, he was in a pleasant mood.

The side effect of the Divine Thunder Indestructible Body, "cruel" emotions, was released quite a bit in the slaughter of recent days.

This made his whole body in an extremely comfortable state.

"There's only one minute left, and the entire 1,000-square-kilometer zone will shrink to 100 kilometers.

By then, I should be able to see those four people ranked ahead of me."

Swoosh—

The brilliant thunder dragon wings behind his back unfolded, and with a light vibration, Xu Jingming flew to the top floor of a nearby building that was a full hundred meters high.

"The view is best here; let's just wait here for the zone to shrink..."

On the rooftop of the building, Xu Jingming folded his wings, sat cross-legged, and closed his eyes to rest.

The battle on the last day will definitely be extremely intense; he needs to recover to his peak state.

"Fifth place? Xu Jingming started too late, so it's normal that the accumulated points can't catch up to the few people in front.

But once the last day enters and the map shrinks, that will be the time for Xu Jingming to start the final slaughter!"

In the virtual world, at the headquarters of the Thunder Martial Arts Hall, on the balcony of a villa, Su Su Qingli looked up at the huge leaderboard in the sky.

Her beautiful eyes faintly carried anticipation.

Accompanying her was Ling Shuang, who was wearing red classical clothing.

"Li Ming, Zhou Hui, these two seem to be from the Violent Bear Martial Arts Hall, right?"

Ling Shuang looked somewhat surprised at the names displayed in the first and second places of Competition Zone 73 on the leaderboard.

The Violent Bear Martial Hall, also a top-tier martial hall in the Great Xia Nation, similarly arranged for the students of its own Heaven's Pride Training Camp to participate in this Genius Competition.

And this Li Ming was the strongest in the Violent Bear Martial Arts Hall's genius training camp!

He possessed an A+ rank ability, Rank 6 lower-tier, and he was the one competing with Wang Dong before.

As for the other Zhou Hui, he was the number two figure in the Violent Bear Martial Arts Hall's genius training camp.

He possessed an A-rank ability, Rank 6 lower-tier, and his strength was extremely formidable.

"It's them."

Su Su Qingli nodded slightly, "They just happened to be assigned to the same competition zone."

"Coming from the same martial arts hall and being in the same competition zone, will they have agreed to act together beforehand?"

Ling Shuang frowned slightly, guessing.

The competition zones were assigned before the match, and contestants from the same force might very likely choose to unite in order to advance.

"Even if they unite, so what? They still can't beat Xu Jingming?"

Su Su Qingli naturally saw the worry in Ling Shuang's words, looked over with those clear eyes, and said with a light smile.

Ling Shuang was slightly startled upon hearing this, and then nodded in recognition:

"Indeed, Xu Jingming's strength exceeds them both by too much."

While speaking, she also felt a bit strange in her heart.

Yes!

Xu Jingming's strength is terrifyingly strong!

In this Competition Zone 73, he is basically pushing horizontally all the way.

There is only one way to defeat him, and that is for the 1 million people in the entire zone to unite to deal with him alone.

Only then is it possible to exhaust him to death.

'Logically speaking, I shouldn't have this kind of concern.'

Ling Shuang thought for a while but couldn't figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it.

She looked up at the huge leaderboard in the sky, quietly waiting for the arrival of the last day of the preliminary round.

Besides the Thunder Martial Arts Hall headquarters, Song Song Qiuyun, Jiang Jiang Chu Chu Xuan, Tang Qi, and others from Magic City University were also looking forward to it.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!...

In the entire virtual world, countless figures also logged on one after another.

Among them, most were ordinary people or low-rank Awakened.

But there were also some people who exuded terrifying auras; just a single glance was enough to make people unable to move.

Obviously, these were top Awakened from different forces and different countries!

The last day of the preliminary round, the competition zone area shrinks.

The first one or two hours of fighting are the most intense, and the time when the ranking changes the fastest.

They didn't want to miss this moment.

Just like this, under the gaze of everyone, time reached 00:00 on the tenth day!

"Contestants, please note that the preliminary round has reached the last day, and the competition zone area is beginning to shrink!"

The majestic voice echoed in the ears of every contestant still in the competition zone.

The originally spacious preliminary round competition zone suddenly began to shrink inward! ===== CHAPTER 508 =====
