Chapter 703

"Audience! Contestants!"

"Let us congratulate the 7 contestants who advanced to the 10th match for contributing wonderful battles to us!"

Elder Xing Yu, who was projected, had a majestic body and announced loudly with a voice like a booming bell!

After the boiling cheers of countless spectators, he pointed to the 7 figures in front of him and continued:

"Without further ado, we will proceed directly to the 10th match!"

"The 7 contestants will determine the 4 contestants to enter the 11th match, the semi-finals!"

"And now, one of the contestants will become the lucky one and will directly advance to the semi-finals by a bye!"

"Boom!"

As soon as Elder Xing Yu finished speaking, he waved his large hand, releasing terrifying divine power, and the galaxy in the sky stirred violently.

The next moment, a dazzling blue beam of light descended, shining on one of the 7 figures.

Countless spectators saw the figure in the beam of light, wearing black and white battle armor, with a tall body, powerful aura, handsome features, and a temperament that looked down on the world.

【Bye: Meng Nuo (Tianyuan Star Domain)】

……

"Congratulations to contestant Meng Nuo from the Tianyuan Star Domain; he will receive the qualification for a direct bye!"

"The next 6 contestants will be matched against each other to determine the 3 strongest contestants!"

After confirming Meng Nuo's bye, the remaining 6 people turned into stars of different colors, colliding in pairs; amidst the explosion, a brand-new battle table was released:

【Match 1: Shen Tu Zhen (Cangya Star Domain) vs Gu Gu Taao (Manzu Star Domain)】

【Match 2: Lin Qi (Mount Lieyang Star Domain) vs Bai Lan (Yongshuang Star Domain)】

【Match 3: Mo Jun (Tianjiao Star Domain) vs He Mo (Shenyan Star Domain)】

……

In the spectator stands, after the battle table was released, billions of spectators also began to discuss.

"Meng Nuo getting a bye is understandable!"

"He can already book the championship in advance!"

"Also defeating star-domain-level geniuses, Meng Nuo's performance is too dazzling."

"He has comprehended the power of both water and fire laws and also possesses the Black and White Dao Body; his application of the power of laws is extremely superb!"

"Other contestants are completely incomparable to him!"

"However, we have to discuss which three contestants have hope of advancing!"

"I think Shen Tu Zhen, Mo Jun, and Bai Lan have more hope!"

"I think Gu Gu Taao, Lin Qi, and Mo Jun are stronger!"

"I think Gu Gu Taao is stronger; even Meng Nuo might not necessarily be able to defeat him!"

"..."

……

Just as the spectator stands were discussing, in the contestant plaza, the major contestants also had their own thoughts.

Pan Kai smiled and congratulated:

"Meng Nuo, congratulations on your bye!"

Meng Nuo, wearing a white robe, shook his head after hearing this:

"I don't want a bye; I want to compete with other star-domain-level geniuses!"

"It's a pity to miss an opportunity to compete with experts!"

"Gu Gu Taao, Bai Lan, He Mo... they are all experts!"

Pan Kai asked: "Aren't you afraid that Lin Qi will be eliminated?"

"You were right before; Lin Qi's strength is indeed powerful; he is worthy of being the first-place winner of the mental trial!"

"And like you, he has also comprehended two laws."

"It's just that he isn't like you, able to control the fusion of two law powers to enhance combat power!"

Meng Nuo said confidently: "Even so, his strength is still a cut above the other contestants."

"I favor him to advance to the 11th match!"

……

【Next, please invite the two contestants for the first match; they are contestant Shen Tu Zhen from the Cangya Star Domain and contestant Gu Gu Taao from the Manzu Star Domain!】

The intelligent voice echoed in the three virtual spaces.

In the contestant plaza, the strongest geniuses of the two major star domains in the top five of the human race were teleported to the giant arena.

On the arena, Gu Gu Taao, wearing black battle armor and looking like an iron tower, swung his hammer-spear with one hand.

A barbaric aura was released from his body, and a heavy aura spread out.

Separated by a distance, Gu Gu Taao spoke excitedly:

"Shen Tu Zhen, it's our turn!"

"I will defeat you and then advance to the next match!!"

Shen Tu Zhen, wearing purple battle armor and having a similarly burly and tall body, snorted coldly while swinging his own great halberd:

"That would be more appropriate if Meng Nuo said it; you are not qualified enough!"

As they spoke, a thick smell of gunpowder began to spread.

The moment the countdown ended, the arena was shrouded in heavy and violent power!

The first battle officially began!

……

In the contestant plaza

In the area of the Mount Lieyang Star Domain, Jiang Tao watched the collision of the two powerful bodies on the arena, the clash of earth and lightning.

He suddenly asked curiously:

"The strength of Shen Tu Zhen and Gu Gu Taao are both very strong!"

"The power of the two is no longer at the same level as the other contestants."

"Lin Lin Qi Ge, who do you think will win between the two of them?"

Lin Qi activated his 【Golden Pupil】, and the trajectories of the two's moves and the mobilization of their laws appeared in his eyes, incomparably clear.

He said: "It's impossible to judge accurately, but Shen Tu Zhen might win!"

"The law comprehension of the two is about the same, but after integrating the laws into their skills, Shen Tu Zhen's application is more flexible."

"Gu Gu Taao might have stronger power, but he is not as good as Lin Qi in this point!"

Mo Long, who had ink-colored horns and a burly build, immediately shook his head and said:

"But why do I feel that Gu Gu Taao can win? His physical strength and defense are impeccable!"

"If it continues to be fought, Gu Gu Taao has a greater probability of winning!"

Jiang Jiang Miaoyin smiled: "We'll know if we keep watching!"

"Lin Lin Qi Ge's predictions are generally not wrong."

Everyone continued to watch.

Sure enough, as the battle progressed, Shen Tu Zhen's application of halberd techniques was more flexible during the fight.

Compared to him, Gu Gu Taao appeared much clumsier, only able to defend continuously!

He was beaten back step by step by Shen Tu Zhen, and finally, his opportunity was seized, and he was hit by successive killing moves!

Finding an opportunity during the bombardment, he delivered a fatal blow, finally killing Gu Gu Taao completely!

In the first match, Shen Tu Zhen successfully advanced!

"Shen Tu Zhen!!"

As countless people in the spectator stands were boiling over.

Gu Gu Taao returned to the contestant plaza with an unwilling face, his veins bulging all over, and his ugly expression made others afraid to speak.

"Damn it, I actually lost!"

"I only got a Top 7!"

"This is not what I wanted!"

Gu Gu Taao felt aggrieved inside, but could only accept reality and continue to look at the big screen.

"Lin Lin Qi Ge's prediction was indeed correct; Shen Tu Zhen really won!"

On the other side, Jiang Jiang Miaoyin smiled and spoke.

Mo Long's expression was awkward; it really let Lin Qi predict it correctly!

Luo Lin smiled: "He is worthy of being a star-domain-level genius; he can see things we can't!"

And Lin Qi also smiled:

"It's just better luck!"

"It's my turn to go on stage!"

After saying this, he was enveloped by the system's blue beam of light and teleported to the arena.

Watching Lin Qi's dissipating figure, Jiang Jiang Miaoyin nodded and said:

"In this match, Lin Lin Qi Ge will definitely be able to win too!"

Jiang Tao said confidently: "That's natural!"

"Although Bai Lan is not weak, she will definitely not be Lin Lin Qi Ge's opponent!"

……

At this time, in the area of the Yongshuang Star Domain on the other side.

Bai Lan, who had silver hair, a graceful figure, and wore a white robe, smiled:

"It's finally my turn!"

"Although I underestimated Lin Qi before, all his trump cards have already been exposed now."

"I won't be like Lan, caught off guard, because I am different from her!"

"Among the three matches, the Lin Qi I face should be the weakest; heaven is truly helping me, wanting me to enter the semi-finals."

After speaking, her figure disappeared, and she was also teleported out by the blue beam of light.

"In this match, our Yongshuang Star Domain is sure to win!"

"Lin Qi from the Mount Lieyang Star Domain cannot possibly be Bai Lan's opponent!"

"If Lin Qi from the Mount Lieyang Star Domain can win, I will eat feces..."

"Our Yongshuang Star Domain, after three thousand years, finally has a genius who can enter the semi-finals!"

Other contestants were excited.

Everyone was looking forward to the moment Bai Lan won!

……

【Next, please invite the two contestants for the second match; they are contestant Lin Qi from the Mount Lieyang Star Domain and contestant Bai Lan from the Yongshuang Star Domain!】

"Bai Lan, my goddess, will definitely win!!"

"Lin Qi, must win this battle!" Amidst the cheers from the spectator stands, on the giant arena.

"Boom!"

Lin Qi and Bai Lan descended; the moment they appeared, a force suppressed the power in their bodies.

This was the system's suppression; after the battle began, the system would also lift the restrictions!

Only then could they unleash stronger power!

But the powerful life magnetic field still caused the surrounding atmosphere to change.

Bai Lan wore silver battle armor and wielded a long spear; she was a rare female who used a long spear!

At the same time, she was taller than Lan and possessed more robust muscles and power!

Bai Lan looked at Lin Qi, the corners of her mouth raised:

"My luck is good; among the other 5 contestants, I am confident of defeating no more than 3 of them!"

"And you are the one we are most confident of defeating, and you just happened to be matched with me!"

Lin Qi also revealed a smile after hearing this:

"Isn't that a coincidence? I thought the same thing!"

"Compared to Shen Tu Zhen, Gu Gu Taao, Mo Jun, and He Mo, I also think you are the weakest!"

Bai Lan swung her silver long spear and snorted coldly:

"Then let's see who is the weakest!"

【Countdown:... 3, 2, 1】

【Countdown ended, the competition officially begins!】

The moment the intelligent voice announced the start, the two on the arena felt their bodies relax.

Their power could also be used.

"Die!"

Bai Lan took the initiative; just like her personality, white light was released from her body, and a bone-chilling cold aura was released from her.

The surrounding temperature dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The sound of the cold spear breaking through the air tore through the air; Bai Lan's silver hair flew, and Golden Gangjin like ice crystals emerged from her body, surrounding the spear body.

The ice laws also descended instantly; her toes stepped on the ground, and countless ice crystals centered on her feet and spread toward the surroundings.

She turned into a frost shadow, and the long spear in her hand thrust toward Lin Qi's throat like a swimming dragon!

"Very fast!"

Lin Qi made his own judgment; the opponent's spear technique and footwork were both matched and were both ice-attribute!

She could well utilize the power of the ice laws.

Her style was different from Lan's, but still very fast!

The opponent's special constitution gave her physical qualities that others could not reach, and what she was currently showing was speed!

The two sides were more than two hundred meters apart, but for Bai Lan, 0.1 seconds was not needed.

It even exceeded the reaction of many spectators; they could only see a silver afterimage.

"Buzz!"

Lin Qi's eyes bloomed with golden light.

He raised his spear with both hands and blocked it in front of his chest!

"Bang!"

The moment the two spears collided, bone-chilling coldness crawled up the spear shaft, condensing into ice crystals.

Lin Qi's body retreated two steps, the golden patterns on his body spreading like a spider web, and Golden Gangjin like liquid metal emerged, instantly blasting the ice crystals away.

"Shoo shoo shoo!!"

Following closely behind were spear shadows thrusting out.

Her attack style was like a violent storm, using an extremely fast fighting style to end the battle quickly.

Cold ice could make the human body become sluggish and slow!

Even if one reacted in time, if the body couldn't keep up, one would still lose!

At the same time, she could also condense ice crystal spear Gangs, which were more powerful and possessed extremely strong penetrating power!

"Zzz!"

Just as the cold ice spear shadows descended, lightning light surged around Lin Qi's body!

Three lightning phantoms instantly emerged and launched attacks at the same time!

The lightning laws exploded, and Lin Qi's figure turned into golden lightning, also beginning to swing his great spear!

"Pfft pfft~"

The two lightning phantoms shattered instantly under the attack of the spear shadows!

And Lin Qi also swung his great spear at this time, like a golden meteorite cutting through the sky!

Golden threads cut through the cold ice aura!

"Bang!"

The two sides began their first collision!

Bai Lan swung her spear upward, power surging, and the 9 source veins in her body surged with powerful power, greatly enhancing her physical strength.

Added to the power of the ice laws, the combination of the two allowed her to unleash power far stronger than other contestants.

"Bang!"

Accompanied by a deafening loud noise, Bai Lan felt as if she had been hit by a heavy hammer, her whole body trembling, and the domineering power was transmitted to her body.

Her body could not withstand it and began to retreat backward!

Her body staggered, unable to stabilize her figure!

"What kind of power is this?"

Bai Lan felt her arms trembling uncontrollably; the domineering power interrupted her attack rhythm.

She was shocked inside; she possessed the special constitution, the Ice Soul Body, and had condensed 9 source veins.

Her body did not look burly, but her physical strength was a large cut above other star-system-level geniuses!

But facing Lin Qi, who was also a star-domain-level genius, she had a feeling of being crushed.

It was purely a huge gap in physical constitution!

If it weren't for the fact that the opponent's secret manuals and techniques were not of high quality!

Otherwise, the power of one spear thrust would only be even more terrifying!

What is going on?

Aren't they star-domain-level geniuses?

How could the gap in physical constitution be so large?

Bai Lan was worthy of being a top-tier genius; her powerful fighting talent made her subconsciously counterattack.

"Shoo shoo shoo!!"

In the moment of retreating, cold ice Golden Gangjin surged out from her body, condensing three ice cones that pierced through the air and shot toward Lin Qi.

She wanted to block Lin Qi's pace!

But Lin Qi raised the corners of his mouth, lightning light shone brightly on his body, and his speed exploded, dodging the attack like nimble lightning!

Immediately, he swung his great spear upward again, the spear tip grazing the air, and the golden sharpness turned into a sharp blade that cut through space!

Bai Lan had to grit her teeth, unleashing the power of the Ice Soul Body, and a terrifying cold ice aura surged from her body.

The cold ice Golden Gangjin on her body gradually turned from grayish-white to deep blue-white.

Endless cold air surged from her mouth and nose, and the surrounding ground froze at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Her aura also improved significantly, as if she had entered a kingdom of cold ice, where everything was frozen!

Even the golden sharpness seemed to be frozen in the cold wind!

This is the power of a special constitution; at a critical moment, it can allow one's Golden Gangjin and physical constitution to be raised to a higher level!

This is the true combat state of a special constitution!

……

In the contestant plaza, the audience of the Yongshuang Star Domain could not help but sigh:

"I have only seen this state of Bai Lan when she was in the Bone-Refining Realm!"

"This is when she unleashes her full strength; the terror of the Ice Soul Body will also be thoroughly displayed!"

"Bai Lan is going to exert her strength; Lin Qi is going to lose!"

Others nodded; Bai Lan's aura had changed, and the entire arena was about to turn into an ice arena.

……

On the giant arena

Now Bai Lan was finally forced to unleash this state!

"Well come!"

She gritted her teeth, swinging her long spear, the spear tip emitting astonishing cold air, and the ice laws were integrated into the Golden Gangjin.

Every time she swung the spear, the air seemed to be frozen!

"Bang!"

The golden sharpness and the air collided, forming a vibrating energy storm!

"Lin Qi, die!"

Bai Lan swung her long spear, the Golden Gangjin around her body flowing, like an ice lotus blooming!

Lin Qi shook his head, continuing to swing his great spear, his heart beating faster, special metal symbols emerged, and the power of the Jin Gang Dominant Body surged.

His blood surged wildly, and through the flow of blood, the veins all over his body bulged!

His whole body released even more powerful strength!

Facing the long spear thrust out by Bai Lan, he also thrust out his wrist as if rotating!

"Clang!"

The spear tips of the two long spears thrust against each other, and the power of the gold and ice laws bombarded each other at the spear tips through the Golden Gangjin!

"I...!"

The moment they collided, Bai Lan's body retreated again, her body suffered impact again, her blood surged, and her muscles and bones were damaged!

And Lin Qi did not forgive, pursuing the victory, swinging his spear technique, and golden sharpness poured out.

Added to his monstrous strength, it was like a giant axe splitting a mountain, both heavy and lethal!

"Clang clang clang!!"

Bai Lan's expression was ugly as she barely coped; every time they collided, the injuries to her body became heavier by one point.

After successive collisions, Bai Lan's speed was clearly affected!

There was a flaw!

Lin Qi seized the flaw, the black-gold great spear in his hand thrust out, like a golden dragon roaring out!

"Shh shh!!"

The spear tore through the air, Golden Gangjin surrounded it, and the golden law spear wheel emerged!

"Oh no!"

Bai Lan secretly thought it was bad, wanting to raise her spear, but her speed was slow!

She watched helplessly as the golden spear tip in front of her, like a dazzling golden dragon, carried intense sharpness and pierced through her battle armor!

"Pfft~"

Behind the battle armor was tough skin, cold ice Golden Gangjin surrounded it, ice laws protected the body, wanting to freeze the great spear, and ice crystals condensed!

"Bang!"

The condensed ice crystals shattered instantly, and the sharp aura continued to pierce through the skin, muscles, and heart!

It unstoppable crushed her heart!

It's over!

Bai Lan lost control of her body!

"Bai Lan, is this your full strength?"

"Sure enough, my judgment was not wrong; you are indeed the weakest in this match!"

Lin Qi looked at Bai Lan in front of him and said calmly.

"You..."

Bai Lan's defense was instantly broken after hearing this!

But her body also turned into nothingness and dissipated into the air.

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

【Congratulations to contestant Lin Qi for successfully advancing to the 11th match, the semi-finals!】
