Chapter 112: Genius Hegemony Tournament (Seeking monthly votes)

"What tournament?" Jiang Tao's eyes also lit up; he and Lin Qi shared the same thought.

Guo Heng placed his phone directly on the table, and a document was projected in front of the group.

"It was released on the official website of the Red Dome Martial Arts Mansion to stimulate the competitive spirit of the geniuses in Xia Guo."

"The Genius Hegemony Tournament is held every year during the second semester of the third year of high school; this is now the fifth edition."

"Genius Hegemony Tournament?" The group was confused.

"Only geniuses with the Bright Moon rank in the entire tournament have the qualifications to participate."

"The entire tournament will last for nearly two months, with a round held every so often. Every genius who advances to the next round will receive a reward."

"It ends only when the final 16 experts are decided, and each person will receive an extremely generous reward."

Guo Heng briefly introduced the tournament format.

After reading it, Jiang Tao's eyes shone: "This tournament is great; you can get a reward for every round you advance."

"Then what is the reward for advancing to the top 16?" he asked curiously.

Guo Heng shook his head and said: "The rewards for the top 16 of each edition are confidential; only the winners themselves know."

Qiu Siying spoke up: "Confidentiality means the rewards are extremely rich. If the reward were Xia Guo currency, it would have been leaked long ago."

"Since everyone doesn't talk about it, it indirectly proves that it is very precious."

Upon hearing this, everyone agreed with this logic.

Lin Qi's heart stirred, and he also developed curiosity and longing for the top 16 reward.

"When does the Genius Hegemony Tournament start?" Lu Xiang asked.

Guo Heng said: "The first three rounds will be held next weekend evening. It is estimated that there will be a network-wide notification in the next day or two."

"Everyone, go back and hone your martial arts more. Let's all strive to break through a few more rounds and get more rewards."

Finally, Lin Qi spoke.

The group nodded; this hegemony tournament had reignited their fighting spirit.

……

The next day, all geniuses who had advanced to the Bright Moon rank received a text message notification.

The official website also released an announcement, causing a huge stir.

Those who hadn't received the text message accelerated their pace of advancement, while more geniuses had their fighting spirit ignited by the rewards.

"There must be a share for me in this top 16 reward." One genius was high-spirited.

"I'm very curious about what the reward is. I'll claim a spot first; those matched with me can only say you're unlucky." Someone laughed.

"The Red Ranking is boring; fighting in tournaments is more interesting." Some were only interested in fighting.

"In this hegemony tournament, I will make the geniuses of Xia Guo remember my name." Chen Li in the martial arts room smiled confidently.

……

At noon that day, inside Martial Arts Room 503.

Lin Qi, wearing a black martial arts uniform, drank two tubes of energy potion in succession.

Then he opened the Red Blood Ointment, dug out a large handful, and applied it to his body.

In a short while, a tube of Red Blood Ointment hit the bottom.

Lin Qi shook his head, took out a new jar of Red Blood Ointment, and dug some out again.

Only after applying one-fifth and feeling the familiar burning sensation in his body did he stand up and set his fist stance.

"The effect of the energy potion is declining, and the Red Blood Ointment is also becoming less and less sufficient."

Lin Qi was thinking and analyzing.

Initially, using the Red Blood Ointment had obvious effects.

But as his Qi and blood value continuously increased, his physical fitness became stronger and stronger.

The effect of the Red Blood Ointment became weaker and weaker, and he had to increase the amount.

Initially, one jar could be used for a week; now, one jar can only last for two days.

One month can use 15 jars.

And the resources provided by the Martial Arts Mansion are only 12 jars, worth 600,000, which is already the limit of the Martial Arts Mansion.

Also, the effect of the energy potion is weakening.

Compared to cultivating Source Energy techniques, the effect of taking potions has weakened a lot.

It is time to change to new resources!

Lin Qi made a decision!

……

Evening, Red Dome Supermarket.

Lin Qi and Jiang Tao walked in; they had come to purchase resources again. "Brother Qi, after breaking through to the Second Realm, it's too difficult to increase Qi and blood value with ordinary resources!" Jiang Tao shook his head and sighed.

After the battle at Wanda Plaza, after his body recovered, he also successfully broke through to the Second Realm.

"So, we need to buy more resources!" Jiang Tao said seriously.

"After buying the Source Energy technique, my savings were consumed by more than half. Fortunately, nearly two million arrived recently, otherwise I would be bankrupt again."

Lin Qi nodded. Jiang Tao purchased the "Diamond Ape Evolution Method," which is a technique from the Heavy Abyss Martial Arts Mansion and requires 1.5 times the price.

Fortunately, Jiang Tao also upgraded to an A-level contract, otherwise the money on him really wouldn't be enough.

"Let's go!"

The two entered the supermarket and began to select resources.

Lin Qi walked quickly toward the inside; the Qi and blood capsules and energy potions in the front no longer had much effect.

"The effect of the high-level energy potion is not good; I need stronger potions."

Lin Qi was thinking as he arrived in front of a row of shelves. The number of potions on this shelf was not large, and the number of people buying them was extremely rare.

!

Lin Qi's gaze rested on them.

This was a white container shaped like a small gourd, only the size of his little finger.

【Item: Qi and Blood Pill】

【Effect: Enhance the effect of tempering physical Qi and blood】

【Price: 250,000/pill】

After seeing it, Lin Qi's eyes lit up; this was the new resource he needed.

Although this potion is not taken every day like the energy potion, taking one pill every few days has a sufficient tempering effect on the body.

Combined with energy and Red Blood Ointment, the improvement effect on him is sufficient.

However, this price is also really expensive, actually requiring 250,000 Xia Guo currency per pill.

So he took the initiative to take four bottles, then went to buy a large amount of high-level energy potions, as well as refreshing potions, aromatherapy, etc.

15 minutes later, Lin Qi arrived at the self-checkout counter.

"Beep!"

"The items you purchased are worth 2.1 million Xia Guo currency. Since you used a 25% discount, do you want to pay 1.575 million Xia Guo currency?"

"Beep!"

"Payment successful, welcome next time!"

Lin Qi paid calmly. The big brother behind him widened his eyes after hearing about the 25% discount.

"25% discount? A-level genius?"

"Brother, you are Lin Qi, right? I've seen you on TV!"

Immediately, his eyes lit up, and he grabbed Lin Qi to take a photo together.

"Lin Qi, can you write a blessing for my daughter? She is your fan." The big brother asked expectantly.

Lin Qi smiled and said: "Of course, no problem!"

He took out a signature pen and wrote a blessing of his own. The handwriting was upright and handsome, making the big brother sigh again that the person is handsome and the handwriting is also handsome.

"Thank you!"

The big brother left with a smile, and Lin Qi also showed a smile.

The first time experiencing the feeling of being a celebrity, it's not bad.

After a small episode, Jiang Tao also finished payment, and the two returned to the martial arts room together.

……

Evening

Red Dome Martial Arts Mansion, Room B123

"Hoo~"

Lin Qi, who was sitting cross-legged, stood up. After simply moving his body, he took a small white gourd from his backpack, opened the cap, and poured out the Qi and Blood Pill inside.

The Qi and Blood Pill was only the size of a glass bead, deep brown all over, inconspicuous, and emitted an unpleasant smell.

Lin Qi put it in his mouth, bit it, and swallowed it.

His brows furrowed into a 'chuan' shape; this taste was truly disgusting, making it hard to swallow.

After finally eating it, he took the energy potion and Red Blood Ointment.

He stood up, took a deep breath, and his body gradually became hot. This time it was different; both inside and outside were like being burned by fire.

Today, he was going to feel the effect of the Qi and Blood Pill worth 250,000 per pill.
