Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Pair of Double Pupils

Chapter 97 (Three?) Progress

"Alright, my next life-or-death battle is about to begin, I'm hanging up now."

"Um.

""

After the call ended, the three brothers turned and left.

However, they did not notice Fang Yi in the distance, who glanced at a few people in the crowd with a faint smile on his face.

Inside the Giant Axe Arena Special Agent's spaceship.

Fang Yi, the Supreme Bone Avatar, waved his hand and reshaped his appearance to resemble Hao's.

"Changing my physical appearance is incredibly easy—but what I didn't expect was that the three of them would suspect me so quickly, even though there wasn't much evidence."

"That's strange."

Fang Yi shrugged, puzzled, and then looked at his next battle planet.

The virtual universe of Heilongshan Island.

-

Yuluoshan Residential Area.

This is the rest and rendezvous point that Fang Yi purchased in the virtual universe, where the vast army of Heilong Mountain has gathered.

The conversation ended.

The envoy of the realm master solemnly presented Fang Yi with the highest level of courtesy from Black Dragon Mountain.

"Then we'll leave it to you. Try your best to get into a higher ranking. We know your identity isn't real, but we don't care. Now your name is known throughout the empire, and we only hope that you can bring glory to our empire."

"As for the reward, we'll do as you say. The higher your ranking, the greater the reward we'll give! Also, if possible, we hope you can—"

Before the special envoy could finish speaking, Fang Yi waved his hand in refusal.

"I will not join you, nor will I be listed as a member. Let's not talk about this anymore."

Upon hearing this, the special envoy simply nodded, his expression extremely respectful without any displeasure, showing no airs even though he was a powerful realm lord.

"clear."

"On behalf of the Emperor and all the people of the Empire, I look forward to your future performance!"

"I'm sorry to have bothered you, I'll take my leave now."

After the special envoy of the realm master finished speaking...

He then led his army away from the place, and the next second after everyone left, Fang Yi activated an illusion spell that spread throughout the surrounding area.

Back in the lobby.

He sat on the sofa to one side and took off his mask.

"The higher my ranking, the more rewards the Black Dragon Mountain Empire will give me, and I will be able to choose them myself."

Fang Yi naturally doesn't mind having too much equipment.

At the same time, he opened the information on powerful individuals sent by the imperial envoy and quickly watched each video.

What he cares about most are naturally some of the famous geniuses among them.

"The savage is indeed not weak; he is a good whetstone."

There were so many videos that even though Fang Yi watched them incredibly fast, it still took him a day and a half to watch them all.

He even gained some insights into this matter, and his cultivation level improved slightly.

January 16, 2066 (China Time).

Fang Yi went to the reception room inside the floating island to check his group. "Group 1000, this group is quite large."

After the group assignments were completed.

All the geniuses disappeared into the reception room to begin preparations for the upcoming arena battle.

"I just found out that the person with double pupils was deliberately controlling his score. But that's normal, considering that guy showed his invincible figure back in the Realm Within a Realm, killing nearly ten thousand people by himself. He's a battle maniac."

Thor watched the extremely valuable combat video of the double-pupiled beings before him, shaking his head and clicking his tongue in amazement at every frame and every second.

They were impressed by its terrifying fighting posture.

"This spatial technique is truly domineering. It is presented in the form of stomping, and the key point is that the spatial energy fluctuations caused by each stomp can last for hundreds of meters. It is simply impossible to defend against, and it is extremely difficult to dodge. Once this technique is used in the arena, the opponent will definitely be at a great disadvantage."

Hong watched the battle video with utmost care and made judgments based on his own combat experience.

"It's truly too unsolvable. If we were to encounter it, it would probably take the three of us working together to break through its spatial secret technique and injure its physical body." Thor put his hands on his hips, and seeing this extremely terrifying powerhouse, he also felt a sense of crisis.

Previously, they didn't think much of it, merely viewing each other as strong individuals, but it's highly likely they'll be assigned to different groups later—

Each battlefield is a battlefield, after all, everyone's goal is the final match.

Although I can't get in.

But we still have to consider the interests of my elder brother and Luo Feng.

Luo Feng stared intently at the battle video, pondering something, when Babata suddenly jumped out and shook his head helplessly.

"Luo Feng, the three of you had better not even think about it. This person with double pupils is very powerful. Even if you can get close to him despite his spatial secret technique, you probably won't be able to fight against his spacetime divine weapon. Moreover, that person has other unknown secret techniques."

"I've calculated it. The probability of any of you defeating him is not high, and Thor's probability is even less than 10%."

Upon hearing this, Thor raised his eyebrows, his face darkened, and he looked helpless. He felt as if his body was about to collapse like mud, and his voice was extremely weak.

"Babata, I know I can't beat you—but you didn't have to say it out loud."

at this time.

Even Lord Mist, who was standing to the side, suddenly jumped out.

"If you hadn't put in the effort to train harder, there might actually be a 10% chance you could succeed."

After finishing speaking, Lord Wu also looked at the battle video and said to everyone with a very complicated expression, "Even my master, at this level and at this stage, is probably no match for this guy. The methods he has displayed are too unsolvable."

Babata echoed helplessly, "I don't want to say it either, but there's nothing I can do. Even in my master's time, he probably wouldn't have been a match for this guy."

Simultaneously.

Luo Feng also privately asked Babata, "Babata, if we also consider my Golden Horned Beast main body and my soon-to-be-completed second clone, the Demon Slayer Clan, what are our chances of winning if the three of us attack together?"

"Luo Feng, your Golden Horned Beast is already at such a high level, and you're still bullying him, huh? But if both of you are at the peak of the ninth level of the Hengxing realm, then your chances of defeating him are definitely over 7%, provided that the guy doesn't have any other tricks or secret techniques."

Babata said with utmost seriousness.

Luo Feng nodded silently in agreement, while Hong and Lei Shen, upon hearing Babata and Lord Wu's hopeless words, also felt a sense of utter despair.

But that did not extinguish the powerful fighting spirit in his heart.

"How will I know if I don't try?" Hong said. "If possible, I would really like to fight him, even if I lose."

After Hong finished speaking, he looked at Luo Feng and Thor with a confident expression.

"Mm." Luo Feng nodded in agreement.

"Big brother is right. No matter how strong the enemy is, we cannot give up. We must work even harder!"

"Yes, we also need to bring Fang Yi along. That kid's talent is terrifying. If he can join the Genius Battle, his results shouldn't be much lower than Luo Feng's. Let's all work twice as hard together!"

"No, it seems I haven't been working hard enough. The weight training I've been doing lately has been too slow. It took me seven rounds to kill that guy without using the first level of the Divine Weapon."

On a planet overgrown with thorns.

Fang Yi has finished his 299th life-or-death battle.

After controlling the Divine Weapon to bury the opponent's corpse, he turned and left the planet, while also reviewing his battle.

now.

Sitting in the spaceship's cockpit.

He watched the battle video intently.

"That move could be even faster, so that the battle could be compressed into six rounds to win."

"No, we absolutely cannot slack off. We must work even harder on our current foundation of cultivation."

After each battle, Fang Yi would take some time to review his combat videos.

Optimize every detail of your combat performance to perfection.

Although he was already very powerful within the universe, this was not a reason to relax his cultivation. During the time he was waiting for the arena competition to begin, Fang Yi focused more of his energy on the Supreme Bone Split.

After a quick review.

Fang Yi had a sudden thought and checked the front panel.

"After unlocking the Qilin Step, there was only one question mark left, but after I broke through to the fifth level of the Universe, two new question marks appeared —"

Fang Yi frowned as he looked at the three question marks.

If there were only one question mark, Fang Yi could probably guess what would be awakened, but now that there are two more question marks, it really leaves him completely confused.

"But it's not a big problem. Whatever it is, I'll take it all!"

With all these adornments, he forges the ultimate!

Fang Yi wouldn't complain about having too many trump cards up his sleeve.

The more methods you have...

The adventure after heading to the Origin Continent will be safer.

Knowing that there are many more powerful figures waiting for him, Fang Yi will not stop at the so-called True God stage.

Once the conditions are right, the journey to the Origin Continent will be an even more terrifying and powerful adventure.

therefore.

We must be prepared now, and we must be prepared at every stage and at every level, so as to lay a solid foundation.

"After experiencing a thousand deadly battles, my combat skills are definitely not too bad. In the future, I will still have to do some more risky things to stimulate my growth."

Fang Yi didn't like being a seedling in a greenhouse.

Their cultivation method leans more towards the ancient pine trees exposed to fierce winds, torrential rains, and extreme heat. Through genuine trials, they gradually reach the pinnacle!

Therefore, I will not miss any battles.

This is true on Earth, and it should be true in the universe as well.

After reviewing his own battle video, he received a notification on the center of the screen that he was about to log in.

"Let's not think about that too much for now. The next battle planet is coming soon."

The spacecraft arrived at the landing site.

With backup, Fang Yi quickly began his 300th life-or-death battle.

July 17, 2066 (China Time).

The battle of the ultimate geniuses begins in the arena.

Fang Yi is in group 1000. Only 200 groups will fight each day, so he will have to wait until the 5th day to participate. Therefore, he is currently watching the arena battle with Luo Feng and others.

In the virtual universe, within the Giant Axe Arena dimension.

The arena battles will take place in the arena.

Fang Yi was very familiar with this, and since he had already joined the upper echelons of Giant Axe, the audience seats where the group was located were naturally the best location.

Luo Feng and Hong, along with their respective families, stood in front of the huge, private observation window.

A crystal-clear view overlooking the arena below.

This was also a rare opportunity for the group to get together.

For Fang Yi, this was one of the few moments of leisure amidst his busy schedule.

"Uncle Fang, you're amazing! You have such a big room!"

Luo Ping, a young boy with his hair parted in the middle, excitedly pressed his face against the barrier in front of him, looking at the enormous arena he had never seen before with great curiosity.

Luo Hai, with his buzz cut, was so engrossed in watching that he forgot to speak or ask any questions.

Xu Xin's brother, Xu Gang, had the same expression as Luo Hai, too shocked to speak. He was not only looking at the scenery of the fighting arena, but also at the piles of money!

"This room must be so expensive—" Luo Hua exclaimed subconsciously.

Luo Feng was somewhat surprised, even though he knew that Fang Yi had joined the upper echelons.

But to everyone's surprise, the arena even set aside such a large exclusive viewing space for them.

To know.

Nowadays, tickets for a single match in the Genius Battle are extremely expensive.

These independent viewing rooms are incredibly expensive, and they sell out instantly. Without special channels and methods, it's simply impossible to snag one.

"Fang Yi, could it be that you've been taken in as a disciple by some powerful figures?"

"No—well, strictly speaking, yes or no," Fang Yi said after thinking for a moment.

"So, Fang Yi, which immortal is your master? Did your master give you anything good?" Babata suddenly flew out, his eyes glowing, and perched on Fang Yi's shoulder.

"Uh, my situation is a bit complicated, and I'm too lazy to explain further. Let's watch the game."

Fang Yi naturally wouldn't tell Babata that he had refused to accept an immortal powerhouse as a disciple.

After saying that...

Babata would definitely be so angry that he would beat Fang Yi up, and in the end he would put on a disappointed expression or say something like, "I didn't expect you to be so arrogant and miss such a great opportunity," etc.

"It's rare for us to get together and watch the game together," Hong said, standing on the edge of the room, looking at Fang Yi, who had finally reunited with his family.

"Yeah, Fang Yi, you're such a busy man, you need an appointment to even talk to someone," Thor joked.

"There will be plenty of time later," Fang Yi said.

Inside the Giant Axe Arena.

Then a clear and sweet voice rang out.

A hot, brown-haired girl in a tight-fitting outfit hosts the show. Her appearance is very similar to that of an Earthling, which makes her very pleasing to the eye for many Earthlings.

"Hey, this host is pretty good-looking," Thor laughed.

"Yes." Fang Yi nodded in agreement. "Indeed, it's rare to see other human races that fit our Earth's aesthetic standards."

The universe is vast and contains different races. Although they can all be considered human, their appearances are quite different from those on Earth.

It is rare to see humans who are so similar to Earth.

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen immediately put on surprised expressions. Seeing their expressions, Fang Yi also frowned.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

All three said at the same time, "It's rare to hear such words from you."

"We thought you'd broken off all feelings and love."

19

"I just find the other person pleasing to the eye," Fang Yi said, shaking his head slightly as he looked at their expressions. What were these people thinking?

Luo Ping asked curiously, "Uncle Fang, when are you getting married? When my dad and Uncle Hong were chatting, they both said you'd be alone for the rest of your life."

Luo Hai also chimed in at this moment.

"Yeah, yeah, they also said that you might be the ultimate bachelor for ten thousand years—no, a hundred thousand years, a million years."

Suddenly I heard the innocent words of these two children.

Fang Yi's lips twitched.

Luo Feng and his two companions gave an awkward smile.
