Devouring the Starry Sky begins with the battle of geniuses

Chapter 113: Great Fighting Festival, Knight Family Members

The Ten Thousand Years Celebration has arrived, and during this ten-year celebration period, even the war between the two royal families in the Abyss battlefield has been temporarily suspended.

In this axis city, there is a kind of excitement like universal celebration.

A variety of garden activities are overwhelming. In the central square of the city, a different grand performance will be held every day to promote the power of the royal family and the grace of the gods.

Major commercial centers have also proposed a wide variety of preferential policies before cutting leeks, and the men and women who usually run the house also opened their pockets during this period.

But the abyss is not a peaceful and easy place after all.

The residents of the abyss are always forced to fight against nature, fight with another royal family that is different from their own, and compete with other inferior races for more and better survival resources.

In such a social atmosphere, those with power are naturally highly respected.

In this world that worships the strong, naturally there is only one place that attracts the most attention in the city - the Great Martial Arts Arena.

As the celebration comes to an end, all activities come to an end, and a huge arena rises in the center of the city.

"Ladies and gentlemen!"

"This is the great martial arts festival that happens once every ten thousand years to determine the name of a truly strong man!"

"It doesn't matter race, gender, or age!"

"As long as you are strong, you can shine on this stage!"

"From now on, you can reach heaven in one step and become a servant of the gods!"

In the waiting room, listening to the host's impassioned speech, Hunzhen seemed to have returned to the beginning of the genius war, the day when she saw the vacant results.

It's just that it's different after all.

Genius battles and martial arts festivals are fundamentally different.

One is for a higher and greater stage and one's own detachment, while the other is for false glory and becoming a loyal dog slave of the "god".

The winners of the Little Martial Arts Festival, 99 Domain Lords and [-] Universe Levels were the first to enter the stage.

As one of them, Hunzhen is naturally among them.

When the host introduced them and the audience gave them warm applause, Hunzhen looked around.

I saw that the stands in the arena were filled with extremely excited faces.

The same audience is equally excited, but there are differences.

Audiences of the talent battle will be proud of the geniuses in their respective divisions, and feel excited for the future of mankind.

The minds of these viewers are much more complex.

Those who are nervous about investing their own money to place bets on contestants or handicap bets.

Some came to cheer for their fallen relatives.

There are also those who want to learn one and a half moves by watching strong men fight.

Of course, there are also those who just watch the monkey show for fun.

However, most of those who can come here to watch the battle directly without external broadcasts are the upper class of Axis City.

There are only a few who get tickets through lucky draws in the city, or spend a huge amount of wealth.

However, the people in these stands are all from lower races.

Looking up, in the silver crystal chambers that were raised through special space technology and covered with veins and transparent lines, it is not difficult to predict the condescending gaze of the abyss nobles.

No additional investigation is needed to know that this time the number of nobles coming to watch the Great Martial Arts Festival was more than that of previous years.

Hunzhen can even directly feel more than a hundred unconcealed probing thoughts.

In order to prevent the battle from spreading, the stadium and the stands are separated by a very strong protective field. Those who can directly break through the protective field and conduct exploration are all strong and powerful people.

Being watched by hundreds of thoughts with such aggressive and evil thoughts, for ordinary people, if they think about the meaning for a moment, their psychological defenses will be broken.

But Hunzhen just frowned, snorted coldly, and directly shattered these thoughts.

"It's quite unruly."

"Hmph! How unruly? You're just an ant. It's a blessing to be observed by us! This guy is really rebellious and doesn't know what's good or bad!"

"Oh? What do you mean..."

"We will join forces now to kill him and establish his power!"

Hun Zhen's approach naturally aroused dissatisfaction and anger among the nobles.

But when someone mentioned "direct action", everyone fell silent.

Who doesn't know that this low-level racial untouchable has fallen into the eyes of Her Royal Highness?
It would be fine if he were defeated and killed head-on in a martial arts festival, but any other actions would undoubtedly be regarded as a front-on provocation by His Highness!
This consequence is not something that ordinary families can afford.

While the nobles were communicating, the host also completed the usual introduction of the rules.

In short, the universe level event and the domain master level event are held at the same time, one takes up the morning time, and the other takes up the afternoon time.

The format is slightly different.

The Universe level will be eliminated through group battles in the arena, while the Territory Lord level will be eliminated through single elimination. Each of the 128 contestants will be selected to enter the finals.This is due to the larger number of universe-level contestants and the format decided to ensure that both levels of competition enter the finals at the same time. (Nobles hold more places at the universe level than at the domain lord level)
As for the finals, there is only one winner at the Universe level, but there are ten winners at the Territory Lord level, and the rules are very different.

Hunzhen only participates in domain master-level competitions, and naturally only pays attention to the rules of domain master-level competitions.

First, tens of thousands of contestants were divided into 128 groups for a total of nine rounds of group knockout rounds. (Different groups have different times of byes)

The subsequent Territory Lord-level finals will be a single-elimination elimination plus reincarnation battle for the loser.

First, three rounds of elimination rounds will be held to determine the eight players. The top eight players with the losers' reincarnation battle points will join together for the final round battle to determine the final top ten winners.

As for the seed players who rely on the winning spots in the Little Fighting Festival, they can be exempted from the first three games of the group knockout rounds.

That is to say, excluding byes, if you want to obtain a winning spot, nine rounds of single-elimination elimination matches and one reincarnation match are enough at the earliest.

There is only one huge arena from beginning to end.

Each elimination match will be held on it one by one.

When the host read out the names of the contestants for the opening match, the audience fell silent for a moment.

Just because, when he recited the name of one of them, he gave an honorific full of awe.

"Compete with Mr. Tronaldo!"

As the host finished speaking, a handsome, gray-skinned young man seven meters tall transformed into the crystal chamber and headed straight to the center of the arena.

Such an act like a god coming down from the earth naturally attracted everyone's attention.

Many discerning viewers have already made cries of shock.

The bloodline of the Abyss royal family is basically linked to height.

Under the mimicry, Qi Mi is undoubtedly a first-class noble!

"How long has it been since there was a big noble participating in the competition!?"

"What kind of wind is this blowing?"

"Is something big going to happen?"

Most of the audience didn't know that Hunzhen existed, and they didn't know that countless nobles had already set their sights on Hunzhen during this Grand Fighting Festival.Lacking intelligence sources, they could feel the undercurrent just from the appearance of a big noble.

Ignoring the many looks of surprise and awe, and even turning a blind eye to the opponent who looked like a formidable enemy in front of him, Tronaldo's eyes fell directly on Hunzhen.

Although there were no words, just the cold eyes said everything.

For a moment, there was an empty circle around Hunzhen.

A crowd of joking eyes looked him up and down.

But the innocent expression did not change at all.

It was as if the person who stared at him and regarded him as a thorn in his side was not a great nobleman, but just a fearless ant on the ground.

"The game is on—"

This indifferent look instantly angered Tronaldo. Before the host announced the start of the match, he suddenly punched his opponent and beat his opponent into powder with one punch.

The Nuo Arena was silent for a moment.

Both the audience and the contestants were shocked, frightened and awed by the crushing strength displayed by Tronaldo in the competition.

Those who are qualified to participate in the Great Martial Arts Festival must be the weakest and have fifth level combat power.

Even if facing a Limit Breaker (sixth level combat power), he won't be killed in an instant, at least he can deal with it once or twice.

What's more... the one who can be selected as the opening match naturally cannot be an ordinary player, that is, a sixth-level combat power.

For such a strong man, for most viewers, even if they have a social status that is much higher than that of ordinary people, they still need to be cautious in their words and deeds and be humble.

But he was killed by Ronaldo as easily as he crushed a bug.

Being able to instantly kill a sixth-level fighter, even if it's not an eighth-level fighter, is still very close.

After a brief silence, what followed was thunderous praise and cheers.

At the same time, everyone was vaguely ridiculing and sympathizing with the contestant who was hated by the first-class nobles.

It's pitiful that even though he is sitting in the seat of the seeded player, he is already a dead person.

"He can only pretend to be calm now."

"I hope he won't be so scared that he withdraws from the race."

"Hey, how about making a temporary handicap on whether this kid will retire?"

As if to transfer fear, everyone made extremely derogatory remarks about Hunzhen Ziran.

It seemed that only in this way could the fact that they were so frightened that they almost peed themselves disappear disappear.

Hunzhen took in everyone's reactions, and faced Ronaldo's cold and cruel gaze, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

The first few rounds of the knockout round were the longest, and the accumulation lasted for three months before the first three rounds of elimination were completed.

There are only six rounds left, which will be over in about half a month.

And on this day, Qingzhen finally had her chance to make her debut.

"The red party is the winner of the latest Little Martial Arts Festival. He came from a humble background, joined the army for hundreds of years, rose to the rank of colonel, and overcame many obstacles along the way. A young genius who participated in the Great Martial Arts Festival for the first time - the innocent contestant!"

Under the focus of the spotlight, there were sparse cheers in the audience, mixed with many unclear jeers.

There are tens of thousands of contestants, few of whom are unknowns, and even more than half are contestants who have had experience competing before.

In order to enhance the excitement and confrontation of the event, the host will introduce the identities of the players one by one.

In previous years, rookies like Hunzhen were often regarded as dark horses and could easily gather many fans.

But with the opening scene, Hunzhen, who is already dead in the eyes of most people, naturally has difficulty attracting fans.

Only a handful of people are looking forward to the plot of counterattack and overcoming the superior, and they are even more excited and fanatical. However, their hope is too small, so after all, such people are only a minority and cannot make much waves.

Unlike Hunzhen, when the spotlight falls on another person, there is cheering.

"Blue Fang, who comes from a knight family, has won the Little Martial Arts Festival when he was only nine thousand years old. He has participated many times. Unfortunately, he lost in the final battle of the last Great Martial Arts Festival. This is his tenth time participating. He is regarded as The favorite to win—Valente Schnaida!”

Valente wears silver full-cover armor with gorgeous hollow lace carvings.

He casually took off his helmet, revealing golden curly hair the color of honey, with an elegant and calm smile on his face.

All of them demonstrate his "aristocratic temperament".

The title of knight cannot be inherited hereditary. Valente is actually no different from other lower-class races, but he always thinks highly of himself. In addition, due to his high strength and outstanding talent, he has attracted many brainless fans.

He won the Little Fighting Festival at the age of nine thousand. Now he is participating in the Great Fighting Festival for the tenth time. His age is at most eleven years old. Compared with other contestants, he is indeed extremely young.

At such an age, he has the sixth level of top combat power. Even if placed in the universe, he is definitely considered a super genius.

In terms of strength and talent alone, it is not surprising that he is so popular.

"Now is the pre-game dialogue session! Countdown, 3 minutes!" After the host completed the announcement, he immediately left.

The game time has gradually become sufficient. In order to intensify the conflicts between the two sides, starting from the fourth round, there will be an additional dialogue session.

Again, for the sake of viewing.

wow.

As soon as the host stepped back, Valente waved his lance and pointed it at Hun Zhen.

"Hunzhen, I know you."

The so-called dialogue session is meant for both parties to confront each other.

It's just that most people don't look up and down, and unless there is a real conflict or a desire to win, they basically won't go too far.

So when Valente made such a pointed challenge, the whole crowd cheered.

What's more, many people are indeed curious about how Hun Zhen could be so widely believed that he could offend a great nobleman.

They are very curious, but now most of the pure information is sealed and protected, and the so-called upper class has no right to know.

Only Valente, who comes from a knight family, can know a thing or two.

Under the expectant gazes of everyone, and with innocent and encouraging eyes, Valente pretended to be indifferent and said: "Where does the so-called century-old military exploits come from? The noble Lord sincerely invites you to join his army, but you are doing it in a secretive way. , betrayed his trust, took away the military merit that belonged to that gentleman, and just climbed to his current status, and could participate in such a sacred event! If not, why are you the only one in the Nuo Master Group to return? If you know how shameful you are, you will be with me now You can still have some dignity by committing suicide in front of me and apologizing!"

With such a revelation, everyone in the audience was talking about it. Looking at Qing Zhen, it was like looking at a dirty garbage.

"A century-old veteran turned out to be a traitor to the Lord?"

"How can such a person be qualified to step onto this sacred stage?"

"Quit! Quit! Quit!"

Valente heard the audience's condemnation, and a proud smile appeared on his face. He quietly looked up at the crystal chamber in the sky, revealing a smile that he thought was elegant but full of flattery.

Yes, he knew that Hun Zhen had angered the nobles, so he regarded the game against Hun Zhen as the best opportunity to flatter him.

He claims to be closer to the nobility, but in fact he just wants to get into the eyes of the nobility, in order to become a loyal dog and be driven away.

After all, coming from a knight family, he never thought about risking his life to become a knight. Having the status of a royal guard and getting to know the nobles better were his greatest ambitions.

Little did they know that this move caused the nobles to burst into laughter.
