Swallowing the Stars: The Rise of Emperor Wei

Registration will close one month later.

In the villa estate of the Nine Star Bay community in the virtual universe.

Gao Sheng, Luo De, Shui Lan'er, Ling Duo, Nan Si, Sa Sha, Ina, Lan Luo, and even Di Xi and Mia came together, a large gathering.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on the email they had just received on the screen—the specific rules of the Peak Genius Battle.

"Welcome to the 'Universe Humanity - Pinnacle Genius' selection competition."

This selection competition attracted over 8225 billion Star-level experts from within the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, an increase of 1100 billion compared to the previous competition. This is something that makes our Virtual Universe Company very happy.

We guarantee that everything in the talent selection competition will be conducted under absolutely fair conditions.

Because some applicants are at the first or second level of the Constant Star Realm, while others are at the eighth or ninth level, the actual elimination battle will take place in a virtual universe to ensure fairness and select the true geniuses. At that time, all participants will have identical physical attributes, maintaining a level of ninth-tier Constant Star Realm.

Everyone's psychic power is maintained at the same level, ninth rank of the Constant Star! All participants have the same physical attributes and can choose their appearance! They can freely choose any rank of Force weapons and psychic weapons (no more than 10 items; participants are reminded that although fourth and fifth rank Force and psychic weapons are powerful, they are useless if their strength is weak. It is recommended to choose the one most suitable for them), and can also choose Force battle suits (no more than second rank). They will also receive a space ring for storing food.

Genius Selection!

The test assesses one's 'secret techniques', 'willpower', 'domain', 'experience', and 'comprehension of laws', with all external conditions being equal for everyone.

……

This talent selection competition is divided into two main stages.

In the first phase, the top 1000 experts will be selected from various cosmic nations.

In the second stage, the top 1000 experts from each universe nation gather. All the geniuses from various universe nations come together for the final showdown to determine the top 1000 in the overall universe ranking.

in……

The first phase is the largest in scale.

The universe you reside in is the Qianwu Universe Kingdom.

The Qianwu Universe Kingdom has over 8225 billion participants, divided into 'preliminary elimination' and 'final battle'.

Through preliminary elimination, out of more than 8225 billion participants, only 100,010 people will be left!

... "

"More than 8225 billion! That's too many, isn't it?" Sasha covered her mouth in disbelief.

Rhodes said in a deep voice, "What's so great about that? The Black Dragon Mountain Empire alone has at least several billion star-level entities, and the entire Qianwu Universe Kingdom probably has more than a trillion. Only over 8200 billion people have signed up, meaning only one in several hundred dares to come. Those who dare to come are all quite capable and confident."

Shui Lan'er smiled as she looked at Gao Sheng.

"What's the use of having more people? They're no match for Young Master and Sister Nansi. Young Master and Sister Nansi will definitely pass the preliminary rounds smoothly." Ina smiled charmingly.

Mia hugged Dixi's arm and laughed, "That's an overstatement, but there's definitely no problem for Young Master and Elder Nansi to pass the preliminary selection."

"Sister Mia, why didn't you sign up? You're also a Star-level expert," Sasha asked curiously.

"Me? With my skill level, I'd only embarrass myself if I went up there, so forget it," Mia said helplessly.

Another month later, the time for the qualifiers to begin finally arrived.

In the secluded mountaintop villa, Gao Sheng and Nan Si exchanged a smile, simultaneously connecting to the virtual universe.

In Jiuxingwan Community, Gao Sheng, Nan Si, Hong, Lei Shen, and Luo Feng arrived at the teleportation point together.

The five looked at each other, and they all saw the fighting spirit in each other's eyes.

"Walk!"

In a special plane of the virtual universe, Qianwu Continent, all 8225 billion contestants appeared in a vast, boundless plaza.

Gao Sheng, Nan Si, Hong, Lei Shen, and Luo Feng appeared together because they were teleported together from Jiuxing Bay.

"The preliminary rounds will be divided into 100 world zones," Hong said. "I'm in zone 18. What about you?"

"Haha, I'm from District 66, I like this number."

"I am from District 72," Gao Sheng said.

"I'm also from District 66." Nan Si pouted, wondering how she ended up in the same district as this bald guy.

"I'm in Zone 1," Luo Feng said.

"A good omen."

Five young people, each brimming with confidence.

He was promoted to the ninth level of the Hengxing Star Rank and the eighth level of the Domain Rank, and comprehended the Laws of Fire and Wood.

Nan Si, a ninth-tier star in the Hengxing realm, with a fourth-level domain, has comprehended the laws of water.

Luo Feng, a seventh-level star in the Eternal Star Realm and a fifth-level domain cultivator, has comprehended the Law of Metal.

Hong, a fourth-tier Hengxing star, with a seventh-level domain.

Thor, Star Level 5, Domain Level 6.

"Mass teleportation is imminent. Countdown: 60...59...58..." A clear voice echoed across the entire continent.

……

As the countdown ended, the mass teleportation began! 8225 billion people vanished instantly.

"Keep a close eye on that constantly changing leaderboard. If our organization can't recruit some super geniuses, even those who are less outstanding will do. Our Qianwu Universe Kingdom has 100 preliminary selection zones. Anyone who can rank in the top 1 in each zone is considered very impressive. Pay close attention to the changes in the leaderboard."

"This is the best opportunity to recruit elites."

"Every time the rankings change, we perform calculations."

"Collect and archive information on various elite geniuses. In the future, a large number of Realm Lords and Domain Lords of our Qianwu Universe Kingdom will be among them."

Throughout the 13,000 star systems of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom, countless organizations, families, and cosmic citizens are paying close attention to this battle.

In the 66th World District, Nan Si's eyes blurred and she found herself in a room a hundred meters wide. Looking out the window, she realized she was in a skyscraper, surrounded by a forest of tall buildings.

"Such strong gravity, much stronger than that thunder world."

That's normal. Without a high point in gravity, this world zone would be far too small for a ninth-tier star level being.

At this moment, the screen on the wrist brace transmitted a series of messages from the organizer, "Virtual Universe Company".

Participants: Southern Silk Road (Black Dragon Mountain Empire)

Points: 0

Ranking: None

World Sector: 66

Time: The preliminary elimination will last for 30 days. When the time is up, the entire preliminary round will end, and the winner will be determined by the final score ranking.

Note: World Zone 66 is a continent simulated based on the real-world planet "Moss" of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom. The entire continent has a total of 108 cities...

Scoring rules: Killing a player earns one point, and you also get half of the opponent's points! Therefore, killing skilled players can earn you more points.

Leaderboard Rules: Even if someone dies, they will still be ranked. If their score is high enough, even if they die and their preliminary selection is terminated, losing half their points, they may still be ranked in the top 1001. So please hurry!

Please note that each person only has one life. Upon death, the preliminary selection will stop and half of the points will be lost.

A detailed ranking list is attached below.

……

Nan Si watched quietly, while within her virtual body, strands of mental energy rapidly wove together, and soon a small octahedron enveloped her soul.

The first level of the "Cage of Solace" is complete!

"Bang!"

The door was kicked open, and a burly man over three meters tall, wielding a greatsword, said, "Little sister, you are my first point."

Boom! The greatsword tore through the air and slashed straight down.

Nansi glared at her. "Hmph!"

The burly man's eyes were glazed over, and his greatsword fell to the ground. A streak of light flashed past, his head exploded, and the burly man collapsed to the ground.

Nan Si looked at the screen on the arm protector again.

Participant: Southern Silk Road (Black Dragon Mountain Empire)

Points: 1

Ranking: 336005874

World Sector: 66

Are there over 3 million people with higher scores than me? Even if each person scored 2 points, wouldn't that mean over 6 million people died? What about those who scored the same as me with 1 point?

Nan Si looked out the window again, and the buildings were filled with densely packed aerial acrobats. She wondered where Thor's bald head was.

Clang! A cloud of mist enveloped Nan Si and pierced through the window, rushing towards the crowd fighting between the buildings.

A crescent moon, like a fish in water, swam merrily, and wherever it passed, *plop! plop!* Corpses fell to the ground.

"No!"

"Run!"

"That's amazing!"

The hundreds of people fighting nearby were immediately thrown into chaos and fled in all directions.
