Chapter 140: Stopped at the First Stage? Mental Power Reaches Grade Four!

~8 min read 1,431 words

After Ye Bai entered the Ladder Tournament, he was randomly teleported into a desert!

Not only was the number of Alien Races here scarce.

But Shangguan Yijian, Xuanyuan Mu, and other prodigies from the same city were already helping each other gain points!

"Besides, Boss Dundun, even if little hero Ye Bai leaves the desert, it will be very difficult for him to catch up to Xuanyuan Mu and Shangguan Yijian..."

"Because among the students in our Jiangcheng Genius Camp, it is highly probable that no one is willing to sacrifice their own ranking for little hero Ye Bai..."

Wang Xiaopang then saw the message posted by that fan.

His expression turned ugly.

Because he knew the fan's analysis was correct.

Xuanyuan Mu and Shangguan Yijian could get other prodigies from the same city to help them farm points.

The former was because he was the First Genius of Shengcheng, the one-of-a-kind type, who had long since won over the other prodigies of Shengcheng.

The latter not only possessed unique prestige and status, but also, considering himself superior, would force other Haicheng prodigies to work for him.

But Ye Bai...

To say nothing else, just from what Wang Xiaopang himself knew, among the many geniuses of the Jiangcheng Genius Camp, Xiao Huohuo and Liu Bufan had always refused to admit defeat! They were eager to compete with Ye Bai! To prove that they were the true First Genius of Jiangcheng!

Before knowing the rules of this Ladder Tournament, it was also highly probable that no one had done any ideological work for these geniuses...

And one step slow means every step is slow...

"Ye Bai is in a bit of trouble this time..." Wang Xiaopang's fists tightened involuntarily!

The facts were indeed so.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, one hour had already passed in the First Stage of the Ladder Tournament!

From Ye Bai's perspective, he had only left that boundless desert over ten minutes ago to proceed with the Ladder Tournament normally.

And in the Ladder Tournament livestream room.

"Haha, who else? Our Haicheng's Shangguan Yijian has already broken 15,000 points!"

"Shangguan Yijian is awesome, worthy of being our Haicheng First Genius and Master Ye's disciple!"

"Our Shengcheng's Xuanyuan Mu isn't bad either, okay? Although he hasn't encountered many Shengcheng prodigies earlier and didn't have so many people helping him boost his score, he now has 10,000 points too.

There are still eleven hours left in the First Stage; who will have the last laugh is still an unknown!"

"Is this the dominance of King-level Prodigies? Our Tiancheng's Li Wen is ranked third, but his points are only over 4,000; the gap is too big!"

At this moment, the barrage in the livestream room was still refreshing non-stop.

However, 99% of the barrage was discussing Xuanyuan Mu and Shangguan Yijian!

The two King-level Prodigies were too stunning!

Not to mention that when they encountered Alien Races in the Secret Realm, they almost killed them instantly, without exception.

More importantly, an hour had passed, and Shangguan Yijian already had over ten Haicheng prodigies helping him boost his score, so his points had reached as high as 15,000, ranking first!

Xuanyuan Mu's luck wasn't as good as Shangguan Yijian's; he had only encountered a few Shengcheng prodigies so far.

But because he had snatched the points that prodigies from other cities had worked so hard to obtain, he now also had 10,000 points!

The screens showing the two of them had also long since been enlarged, each occupying 1/4 of the entire livestream screen!

"Speaking of which, where are those people from Jiangcheng?"

"Didn't they all clamor at the beginning that Ye Bai was able to take first place in the whole province in the last Ranking Tournament by relying on his own strength? Didn't they say he could still get first place in this Ladder Tournament? Why have they suddenly stopped shouting?"

"Let me see, so it turns out they don't have the face to keep shouting."

"Haha, it's been a whole hour, and this Ye Bai's points are only over 1,000, ranking 73rd overall! He doesn't even have as many points as their Jiangcheng's Li Qingqing, Xiao Huohuo, and Liu Bufan; at least they made it into the top sixty!"

"Not a single one in the top fifty, all the geniuses stopped at the First Stage—is this the strength of Jiangcheng this year? If you ask me, those people from Jiangcheng don't even need to wait for the Second Stage; they can just go back now and announce they're at the bottom!"

Then someone remembered that the Jiangcheng people hadn't posted any barrage for a while.

Following the appearance of the first barrage mentioning Jiangcheng, a dense stream of barrage followed.

Without exception, they were all mocking Ye Bai and mocking everyone from Jiangcheng!

"How could it be like this..."

The audience from Jiangcheng was, of course, still in the livestream room at this moment, and the number of people was still 3 million+.

However, seeing the dense barrage pouring out, not a single person came out to speak!

They in front of the screens only had ashen faces and tightly clenched fists!

"Ye Bai, is he really... still not good enough?"

"Was the high score in the Ranking Tournament really just because the rules of the Ranking Tournament were very favorable to him?"

Haiboxi and several other instructors were also watching the livestream the whole time.

They had originally wanted to obtain enough bargaining chips to propose to their respective Martial Universities to recruit Ye Bai at all costs.

Their gazes were also basically fixed on Ye Bai's perspective.

They saw that Ye Bai was initially in the desert, so his points rose very slowly.

They saw that after Ye Bai left the desert, the speed at which his points rose was much faster.

It could even be faintly seen that Ye Bai's speed in finding Alien Races was surprisingly fast; he could find an Alien Race almost every little while.

However, the gap in points from Xuanyuan Mu and Shangguan Yijian was too large!

The speed of his point increase in the latter half hour was also not as good as Xuanyuan Mu's or Shangguan Yijian's!

If this continues, Ye Bai is destined to be unable to change his S-level Prodigy rating!

And it is destined that no one will be willing to offend Magic City Martial Arts University and Yang Hai for Ye Bai's sake!

"Brother Ye, it can't go on like this; you have to think of other ways..."

Chen Zhenyao and Huang Weiguo were also watching the Ladder Tournament at this moment, their fists clenched tightly.

Beside them were dense crowds of Junbu Zhanshi, all of them looking nervous!

……

"Grandpa, it can't be that Ye Bai really won't even make it into the top fifty, right..."

At the Jiangcheng Martial Artist Association, Liu Yan'er had specifically taken the day off work to stay in Liu Qingtian's office and watch the live broadcast of the Ladder Tournament.

Seeing the opinions of people from other cities about Ye Bai in the live stream, she couldn't help but purse her red lips and ask Liu Qingtian.

"Do you believe in him?" Liu Qingtian said calmly.

"Of course I do. Ye Bai is very capable of creating miracles. Grandpa, you don't even know, the first time I met him, I thought he was just a young man who cared too much about his pride..."

Liu Yan'er's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Then let's keep watching. Young friend Ye Bai won't let us down," Liu Qingtian smiled.

However, the fist he kept clenched under his sleeve betrayed his true thoughts.

Last time, Jiangcheng ranked last, which caused Jiangcheng's overall strength to weaken year by year over the past decade, to the point where even the City Lord has to guard the inner space of the Dimension Gate day and night!

Liu Qingtian was more nervous than anyone else...

……

"Xiaobai, go for it!"

Wangxing Pavilion No. 38.

Qin Churan was with Xi Mengyue today; Xi Mengyue had taken the initiative to offer to keep Qin Churan company.

"Please, please don't let that Yang Hai really look down on you..."

The two women watched the live stream at this moment; unable to do anything else, they could only silently cheer for Ye Bai...

……

However, shifting the perspective to Ye Bai's side.

No one knew.

"Finally, I've successfully broken through..."

Ye Bai's eyes suddenly lit up!

At this moment, in his mind, his Mental Power was expanding wildly!
