Chapter 694: Arena competition officially begins! (Seeking monthly votes)

"If you can join the three holy lands, it's naturally the best!"

"Cultivation resources, it is said, are not at the same level."

"But wanting to join the three holy lands is not that easy!"

Lin Qi also fell into deep thought; the three holy lands, founded by the first three supreme existences of the human race, had a deep foundation and possessed better cultivation resources.

The stronger the force, the better the resources it possesses; this point is indeed correct!

Just like the three major martial arts universities during his college entrance exam, Cangqiong, Minghai, and Shanyu.

The resources they possessed were not what other martial arts universities could possess.

So if he had to choose, he would definitely choose to join the three holy lands.

Elder Xing Yu continued to speak:

"The rules of the arena competition are also very simple: 3,400 contestants match each other, and through game after game of confrontation, the final champion is decided!"

"In the arena competition, contestants who pass the first three games, according to the rules, will have the choice to join the three holy lands!"

"That is to say, contestants who pass after three games will be able to join the three holy lands!"

"And contestants who advance in each game will also have a reward of 10 million Deep Space Coins!"

"Every game you win, you can get 10 million more Deep Space Coins!"

"Until the end of the arena competition, you can get up to hundreds of millions of Deep Space Coins!"

"Next, we will conduct the first game of the arena competition!"

"Boom!!"

While Elder Xing Yu was speaking, countless stars lit up on the brilliant galaxy in the sky.

The stars crossed the sky like shooting stars, finally turning into 3,400 stars, condensing into the battle table of the arena competition!

At the same time, everyone on the contestant plaza was also discussing!

Jiang Tao started calculating:

"You have to win three games to choose to join the three holy lands, which means in the fourth game, only 425 can join the three holy lands!"

"On average, each star domain only has 4 spots; this condition is truly harsh."

Jiang Miaoyin also frowned:

"In previous Deep Space Genius Tournaments, among 3,000 contestants, only about 375 geniuses could enter the three holy lands."

"Our session is also relatively more!"

"However, I have no hope; it's not bad to join other six supreme forces!"

"Now the battle table is out, let's look at the next opponent!"

Others also nodded; it was not bad to have a supreme force, so they couldn't let them pick.

And Lin Qi had already seen his opponent for the first game.

【Game 3: Lin Qi (Lieyang Star Domain) vs Zakari (Mother Tree Star Domain)】

After seeing the opponent, the information about the opponent also surfaced in his mind.

Mother Tree Star Domain, ranks in the middle among the 108 star domains, which is about 50th.

And Zakari was one of them, a top star-system-level genius from the Mother Tree Kingdom.

At this time, on the contestant plaza.

Contestants from the Mother Tree Star Domain gathered together, watching the battle table.

"Zakari, your opponent is Lin Qi from the Lieyang Star Domain, the first place in the Heart Trial!"

Someone among the many contestants from the Mother Tree Star Domain spoke.

Zakari, who was called by everyone, was a bit nervous, but on the surface, he showed a confident smile:

"Just first place in the Heart Trial!"

"This doesn't mean he has the strength of first place!"

"I've read his information; he hasn't comprehended laws for more than a year."

"And we are different; I comprehended laws before the Deep Space Genius Tournament."

"I have completely integrated the comprehended laws into my blade technique."

"If we can eliminate him, the audience of all star domains will know me, Zakari!"

Other contestants cheered for him after hearing this.

At the same time, in the broadcast, Elder Xing Yu also spoke at the same time:

"The first game of the arena competition officially begins!"

"In the first game, eight competitions will be held simultaneously!"

"During the competition, it is forbidden to use life-risking skills such as small divine powers that significantly increase combat power."

"Next, please welcome the contestants of the first 8 games!"

After Elder Xing Yu announced, 16 figures on the contestant plaza turned into blue light beams and rushed into the sky amidst cheers.

"Zakari, be spirited, don't lose points!"

"Defeat Lin Qi and prove the strength of our Mother Tree Star Domain!"

"Boom!!"

In several virtual worlds, countless viewers saw huge blue light beams descending from the starry sky at the same time, and the world began to split.

Finally, it turned into eight worlds, the arena was like a growing towering tree, constantly growing and expanding, and finally turned into giant arenas.

Each arena was like an ancient Roman colosseum, with the size of three football fields.

Eight arenas, eight perspectives, 16 blue light beams descended on the big screen respectively.

On the 3rd arena.

"Boom!!"

On the silver alloy ground, two figures appeared from the light beams.

Lin Qi was still in his familiar combat equipment, black-gold armor, and a black-gold great spear.

He stood in place, feeling the gravity in the surrounding air, 10 times the gravity of Blue Star!

It would reduce the combat power displayed by the contestants, and the ground was also a special alloy, capable of withstanding the destructive power of a cosmic second-realm martial artist!

"Spear Demon Lin Qi!"

Lin Qi looked at Zakari opposite; the other party had three-dimensional features, and at the same time, there was a green tattoo like leaf patterns on his neck.

Wearing cyan armor, holding a silver battle knife in one hand, the sharp blade seemed to be the entity of the Law of Wind.

He looked at Lin Qi, flames of excitement bloomed in his eyes, and he spoke:

"After the Heart Trial, many forces are collecting your information!"

"The nickname they gave you is Spear Demon!"

"I am also curious, how is the strength of you, the genius who is first in the Heart Trial!"

"If it's too weak, I believe many contestants will be disappointed."

Lin Qi smiled instead after hearing this:

"Then you can rest assured!"

【Countdown:..., 3, 2, 1】

【The 30-second countdown ends, the 3rd competition officially begins!】

Above the arena, the intelligent voice announced.

The eyes of countless viewers were focused on this match.

"First place in the Heart Trial, how is his strength? This match will show it."

At the same time, on the contestant plaza, top geniuses from star domains like the Tianyuan Star Domain, Cangya Star Domain, and Manzu Star Domain also locked onto the big screen.

"Boom!"

Zakari's eyes bloomed with cyan light, and a tornado blew out of thin air in the air, centered on him.

The cyan tornado, like a sharp blade, ravaged the surrounding ground.

Like a level 50 strong wind, the moment his footsteps stepped out, the Law of Wind was mobilized and integrated into his battle knife.

The silver blade tore through the air, as if it had lost its weight, leaving only heavy silver light.

The Law of Wind is not as good as the Law of Metal in sharpness, but it possesses terrifying speed and powerful tearing power.

Lin Qi could feel that the other party's comprehension of laws was not weak.

"Whoosh, whoosh!!"

Accompanied by the roar of the violent wind, a cold light suddenly flashed

Zakari transformed into a gale, releasing immense power, and suddenly swung his silver battle blade, slashing out a giant cyan blade aura.

"Whoosh whoosh!!"

Suddenly, wind eyes condensed in the four corners of the surroundings, and four tornadoes formed, sweeping toward him.

The airflow formed a complete and intense obstruction, suppressing his movements.

Waves of tearing force struck; each tornado was a condensation of the Law of Wind.

The power was far beyond imagination!

"Die!"

Zakari's expression was firm; he acted decisively, just as he had been taught since childhood.

If one wants to achieve final victory, one must be decisive, especially when facing the first place of the mental trial.

Even if the opponent is not strong, their powerful willpower will still bring unknown variables to the battle!

So he had to end the battle quickly and kill the opponent fast!

"What a peculiar attack!"

Lin Qi couldn't help but sigh in his heart; apart from the Lieyang Star Domain, the geniuses of other star domains had many differences in their blade techniques compared to what he had seen.

It also broadened his horizons!

The opponent's blade technique was indeed exquisite, mobilizing the Law of Wind to erupt with greater power.

Lin Qi swung his black-gold great spear, and dazzling golden light erupted from his body.

The Golden Emperor Gangjin flowed out, mobilizing the Law of Metal, swirling at the spear tip.

His wrist exerted force, without the slightest obstruction, like flowing clouds and water.

"Hum hum!"

The metal particles in the air vibrated!

"Boom!"

The spear tip circled his body, carving a beautiful trajectory in the air!

Golden threads blasted out, turning into countless golden blades, clashing head-on with the cyan tornadoes!

Accompanied by a deafening sound, two different forces began to collide violently.

The tornadoes were sliced open by the invisible blades.

"You broke my blade technique so easily?"

Zakari was a bit surprised; the sharpness of the opponent's spear technique was stronger than expected.

"Worthy of being the first place in the mental trial; the strength is indeed not simple!"

Lin Qi nodded secretly; he was quite satisfied with the power of the "Susha Scroll" spear technique.

Through the Susha True Intent, he mobilized the Law of Metal to form invisible sharpness for cutting.

Ordinary metal would also be instantly cut into fragments.

Zakari continued to wield his battle blade, executing his movement technique; his figure had a special rhythm. He was as light and swift as the wind, silent and soundless!

The Law of Wind was integrated into his movement, making his motion even more unpredictable; even the human eye found it difficult to keep up with his pace.

"Whoosh whoosh!!"

The violent gale raged, and Zakari's figure vanished instantly.

The next moment, he appeared behind Lin Qi with the wind, his battle blade slashing out horizontally, as if it could cut the air in two.

"Die!!!"

"Clang!"

In an instant, the battle blade collided with the great spear; Lin Qi raised his spear as if he had already anticipated it, swinging the great spear.

Golden sharpness clashed against golden sharpness.

A formidable force was transmitted from the blade, and Zakari's arm went numb instantly.

Even a body that had been tempered a thousand times and could shatter countless mountains.

Faced with this strike from Lin Qi, he still felt damage.

"What...?"

Zakari was startled; had his attack trajectory been seen through?

How is that possible?

Just then, Lin Qi moved, and layers of the Golden Domain swept out like air waves.

And the black-gold great spear in his hand began to tremble violently.

Lin Qi began to inject Gangjin, turned suddenly, and held the great spear high, swinging it down like Mount Tai pressing down!

The spear tip carved a golden thread in the air!

"Hum hum!"

The golden thread slashed out!

"Sharpness Scroll" — Golden Thread Cut!

The golden thread slashed out, instantly cutting the air, and the invisible gale was also cut and annihilated!

"Danger!"

Zakari felt intense danger, swung his battle blade violently, and the cyan blade aura expanded, slashing out like a tornado.

"Boom!"

A violent expansion erupted in the air; the two forces clashed, and the cyan blade aura, facing the one-meter-long golden sharpness, was like a beast hunting, wanting to swallow it whole.

But after the clash, Zakari's body was like a kite with a broken string, unable to stop retreating backward!

The terrifying impact shattered the blade aura.

At the same time, golden light flashed before his eyes, and a spear aura several meters long pierced through the air!

The spear aura pierced through the battle armor, punctured Zakari's tough skin, and finally shredded his heart!

"Pfft~"

"Boom!!"

The sound of a metal weapon piercing flesh and the sound of hitting the ground rang out simultaneously.

Cracks appeared on the alloy ground, and Zakari, wearing cyan battle armor, fell to the ground, his life force fading rapidly.

"I..."

Before Zakari could finish his sentence, he dissipated into nothingness.

【Battle ended, Lin Qi (Lieyang Star Domain) wins!】

【Congratulations to contestant Lin Qi for successfully entering the second round!】

In the contestant space, Zakari was teleported back, and he frowned.

"I lost?"

He was surprised; he had thought he might lose, but he hadn't thought he would lose so quickly!

It had only been a few moves, and he had been defeated?

Was the gap really that big?

"Zakari, what's the situation with you?"

"You are the Wind Shadow Guest of our Mother Tree Star Domain; since participating in the Deep Space Genius Competition, you have never taken more than ten moves to defeat an opponent."

"You are one of the top ten in our Mother Tree Star Domain; how could you lose so quickly?"

"Is Lin Qi of the Lieyang Star Domain really that powerful?"

Other contestants also showed surprised expressions.

Zakari's face flushed red after hearing this, and he said:

"I was just careless for a moment!"

"The previous opponents were too weak, so I didn't adapt and didn't exert 100% of my strength, which is why I lost the battle."

"If there were another match, I would definitely not be careless."

The other contestants were half-believing, but since most of them were not Zakari's match, they could only believe his explanation.

On the big screen, as the battle ended, the audience also discussed in low voices.

"Lin Qi of the Lieyang Star Domain actually won so easily."

"Worthy of being the first place in the mental trial!"

On the contestant plaza, many experts from the Tianyuan Star Domain also expressed their opinions.

"It's only the first round; if one cannot pass easily, how can one enter the three great holy lands!"

"As the first place in the mental trial, the strength cannot be too weak!"

Lin Qi was also teleported back at this time; he looked at the big screen, and among the 8 matches, he had finished the fastest.

He had successfully defeated Zakari, and to be honest, the opponent's strength was quite good.

His understanding of the Law of Wind was deep, and the blade technique and movement technique he practiced were also very exquisite.

If it were himself without the 9 source veins condensed, it would not have been so easy to win against him.

"Brother Lin Qi, congratulations on successfully passing the first round!"

"You are already one of the 1700 strongest contestants in the Yu Kong Realm!"

Jiang Miaoyin was the first to offer congratulations.

Lin Qi looked at the others and said: "Zakari's strength is very strong; when you encounter opponents, do not be careless."

Jiang Tao asked suspiciously: "But why did you win so easily, Lin Lin Qi Ge?"

The black-robed War God shook his head and said: "That's because Lin Qi is truly very strong!"

"Zakari is indeed very strong; I'm not even sure I could defeat him, let alone you!"

The others felt a chill in their hearts, and a powerful pressure rushed toward them.

Lin Qi continued to watch the competition; the arena matches would not last for a very long time.

Even if he went offline to cultivate, there wouldn't be a significant improvement.

It was better to watch the battles of other contestants.

The subsequent contestants were more than 95% from top-tier forces, and in terms of the exquisiteness of their secret manuals, they were all stronger than him.

At the same time, they all had their own unique fighting styles; watching more could also broaden his horizons and improve his foundation.

After all, those who could enter the supreme forces were not weak.

He could multitask, and his eyesight was amazing; he could watch 8 battles simultaneously.

Except for him easily defeating his opponent, the other 7 battles lasted for quite a long time, and 7 or 8 minutes was the norm!

The eliminated contestants were not weak; they were top geniuses in their respective star domains.

But when brought to a higher stage, they became inadequate and were defeated one by one.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of matches had passed.

It was finally the turn of the people from Lanxing to take the stage.

A moment later, Jiang Tao was teleported back.

He said with a frustrated expression: "I lost!"

"Damn it, the gap feels too big; although the opponent is not as strong as Lin Lin Qi Ge, it's not someone I can deal with."

"My Deep Space Coins, they are really gone now!"

Lin Qi comforted him: "It's okay, you lost, you lost; anyway, you can already join a supreme force!"

After Jiang Tao, it was Li Tianxing and Sun Sheng; they both took the stage one after another.

In the end, they were all eliminated!

Sun Sheng gritted his teeth and said unwillingly: "In this match, my luck was too bad!"

"My opponent was Gu Yan from the Manzu Star Domain; they come from Manzu Mountain, and I feel my physical fitness is not weaker than his!"

"But in the understanding of the laws, I am a big step behind him!"

"Both are in the Yu Kong Realm, but the gap in the understanding of the laws is too large; it might take me several more years to catch up."

Li Tianxing also shook his head and said: "I'm about the same; there is a gap in the understanding of the laws, and to be honest, the exquisiteness of the secret manuals is also not enough!"

"This also has an impact on combat power!"

Lin Qi shook his head and said: "There's nothing that can be done about this; the secret manuals in the Lieyang Dao Academy are already the most exquisite manuals for us."

"Lieyang Star cannot let outsiders learn the core inheritance."

"We cannot learn the most core inheritance, so our combat power will naturally be a notch weaker."

"We didn't lose unjustly!"

The others nodded; this was also something that couldn't be helped, and they could only wait until they entered the supreme forces to find a way to solve it.

"It's my turn!"

Jiang Miaoyin suddenly spoke, and then she transformed into a blue pillar of light and was teleported to the arena.

"A-Miao must win; we in Lanxing have already been eliminated three times in a row." Jiang Tao prayed.

Lin Qi and the others looked at the two sides fighting on Arena 7; one of them was Jiang Miaoyin.

She wore silver battle armor, controlled silver flying swords with mental power, and combined them into a sword array to launch an attack.

And her opponent was named Tai En.

He was also a psychokinetic master, with a lean figure, wearing deep blue battle armor, having a pair of blue pupils, handsome features, and controlling hundreds of blue flying knives.

The immense Law of Water covered the blue flying blades, suppressing Jiang Miaoyin.

There was a clear gap between the two sides, and Jiang Miaoyin was no match.
