As the Astral Lords discussed, ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
A golden light once again appeared on the point tablet, reversing the rankings. After the golden light faded, a new round of rankings appeared.
This time, the youth with the wooden sword was actually ranked first!
Challenging the 28th level of the Sword Dao Illusionary God Stele!
Ranked second was the Dragon Emperor, challenging the 24th level of the Dragon Attribute Illusionary God Stele. With the bonus points from the Dragon Attribute Illusionary God Stele, he was only slightly behind the wooden sword youth.
The difficulty of the Dragon Attribute Illusionary God Stele caused the speed of the challenge to decrease. Previously, he had taken ten minutes to reach the sixteenth level, but now, after ten minutes, he had only gone up eight levels. This was completely within the expectations of the Astral Lords.
However, the wooden sword youth's performance was a little surprising. In ten minutes, he had still gone up twelve levels. Compared to before, his speed was only slightly slower. It could be said that he was charging forward at full speed!
"I heard that he is the successor of the North Sea God of Swordsmanship. Judging from his performance, he must have received the Sword God's true teachings!"
"Judging from his speed, I think he can finish each level within five rounds. Tsk, tsk. Normal Fate State warriors would have been defeated after three or four levels. That is the difference between a monster and a mortal!"
"The sword arts he cultivates aren't that effective against the Sword Dao Illusionary God Stele. I think he chose this level to hone his sword arts."
"… This little guy is training himself while gaining points, and he even managed to get to first place in the rankings?"
The few Star Lords looked at each other and smiled bitterly. The number one monster of the five academies should have already been decided. As expected of the successor of the Sword God, he would probably have a dazzling performance in the Star Zone Challenge later in the universe. After all, those who could get on that stage mostly had an impressive background.
"The Saint King is ranked third. He's challenging the Illusion Stele of the Elemental School. He's increasing his points very fast. It seems that he hasn't used his full strength yet."
"Your Amir's Osron is ranked fourth. His performance is not bad."
"That guy has dropped to ninth place in all his Elements, stuck on the eighteenth level. As expected, while the All-Element School's points are high, it's also the most difficult. Also, he might be unlucky if he's not careful. It's so random that it's extremely difficult to deal with. It's the perfect counter to his enemies."
"His speed has obviously dropped. He's too confident, heh!" The Star Lord of the Dragon Grave Academy sneered. He had seen too many arrogant geniuses like that; none of them had a good ending.
"Humph!"
The golden mentor snorted and ignored them. He was more concerned about Osron's ranking; he was quite anxious to see that he was ranked fourth. Even if he wasn't as good as the heir of the Sword God, he could at least compete with the Dragon Emperor. However, the Saint King had surpassed him, which was beyond his expectations.
…
On the nineteenth level of the Illusion Stele of all Elements.
Su Ping was flying across a desert. Ten gigantic beasts were chasing after him, shaking the sand and stirring up a cloud of dust. They were all beasts of the stone family that lived in the desert.
There is indeed an end to this illusion.
"I wonder what lies beyond the boundary."
All of a sudden, Su Ping stopped. In front of him was still a vast desert, but he sensed that there was a barrier blocking his senses hundreds of meters away.
Whoosh!
He raised his hand and shot out a stone at the tip of his finger.
The rocks collided with the barrier of nothingness that he had sensed and instantly turned into powder.
At the same time, the ten wild beasts of the stone class roared and charged at him. Su Ping didn't look back; he simply waved his hand, and an enormous hand made of astral power swept out. A series of explosions echoed.
The ten wild beasts exploded one after another. When the last one was left, it was caught by the hand made of astral power. Su Ping ignored it and continued to observe the barrier. He tried to gather thirty laws and threw a punch.
Bang! The strength of this punch was extremely strong, and it blasted away all the sand and dust in the desert before him. Everywhere it passed, space collapsed, and the sand and dust were obliterated, transforming into a pure black area.
Dong!
Like a muffled sound, the terrifying fist force suddenly disappeared. The barrier was still intact, and the shockwave spread out, causing the sand and dust within a radius of tens of thousands of meters to be blown back, as if it was blown up by a gale, creating a deep pit.
Su Ping withdrew his fist and took a deep breath. It was indeed difficult to break through.
He didn't use his full strength, but the barrier didn't react at all. It was obvious that he wouldn't be able to shake it even if he used all his strength.
Maybe I can break through the barrier and get out of the Illusion Monument. I can see the rules and the situation inside the Illusion Monument from a different perspective, Su Ping thought. He had this feeling, but unfortunately, he didn't have the ability to do it. Maybe the barrier was built by the Ascendant God of the Mysterious Realm, or maybe the Mysterious Realm itself had always existed.
He had tested several barriers along the way, but he couldn't find any flaws.
Never mind. I'll just keep accumulating points. It would be best if I can get materials for the fourth level of the Solar Bulwark. Su Ping shook his head. The hand made of astral power behind him suddenly squeezed. The struggling wild beast exploded.
Soon, Su Ping stepped onto the 20th level.
The 20th level was a scenic place with green mountains and clear waters. However, a person in a green dress suddenly jumped out. It was a human being.
That human being was a woman. She approached Su Ping in an instant and drew her sword as if she could cut Su Ping's eyes and vision.
Calmly, Su Ping raised his fist.
Bang!
The woman exploded on the spot. She had been killed before she could use her sword skills.
A human being even has swordsmanship. The Illusion Monument of all kinds is indeed a place where I can encounter all kinds of enemies. I can't judge them with common sense, Su Ping thought. The scenery changed. He was on the 21st level.
Bang!
Once again, Su Ping punched and killed the enemy.
He stopped exploring the boundaries and barriers of the Illusion Monument. Su Ping sped up and almost finished every level with one strike.
…
Ten minutes had passed in the outside world.
Golden light glowed on the scoreboard and the rankings changed again. The Star Lord from the Academy of Kendo's eyes glowed. He looked at the top of the scoreboard and the glow in his eyes disappeared. His eyes widened in shock and disbelief.
The young man with the wooden sword who had overtaken the Dragon King was no longer at the top. The Dragon King wasn't at the top, either. It was a stranger.
The young man who had challenged the Illusion Monument of all kinds?!
When the other Star Lords saw this scene, they were all stunned and somewhat astonished.
"What's going on? The successor of the God of Swordsmanship was pushed to the second place? "
"Holy sh * t. Look, this guy is on the 42nd level?!!"
"…"
"Well …"
The seven Star Lords were dumbfounded.
Behind Su Ping, the number "42nd level" was very eye-catching, and the points behind it were even more unbelievable. Thanks to the enhancement of the Illusion Monument of all kinds, Su Ping had surpassed the young man with the wooden sword by half!
A guy who had only been on the 18th level and ranked ninth had jumped to the top, and he had even reached the 42nd level?!
Didn't that mean that he had reached the 24th level in only ten minutes?
Was it a reverse sprint? The higher the level of the Illusion Monument, the more difficult it would be, especially after the 30th level, when the enemy would be a Fate State phantom who had grasped the power of laws. It was like fighting an enemy who had just reached the Star State!
On the 40th level, the phantom had already grasped the laws quite well.
He could still sprint at such a high speed under such circumstances?!
"Is there something wrong?"
"He reached the 24th level in ten minutes? He's so fast that he can simply sweep away all the enemies. How is that possible? "
"Even if he's strong and has a combat ability comparable to the Star State, his willpower will be worn down after each challenge in the Illusion Monument. His projection will also be weakened after the willpower is worn down. I've only seen him reach the 40th level twice in half an hour."
"Me too. I think he was a genius from another solar system. He became a Star Lord a long time ago and had a chance to become a god."
The Star Lords were all shocked and didn't know what to say.
The situation was too weird.
He had only reached the 18th level from the 12th level, but then he had reached the 42nd level in ten minutes. That was too abnormal!
Was he fooling around earlier?
They were more willing to believe that there was something wrong with the Illusion Monument.
"I'll go and ask Lord Phantom Hunter." One of the Star Lords of the Mystic Realm came back to his senses. His expression changed as he said those words and left quickly.
The mentors of the five academies looked at each other in bewilderment and shook their heads. They had no idea what was going on, but judging from the current situation, it was very likely that something was wrong.
"The successor of the Sword God is still in second place. He went from the 28th level to the 36th. He slowed down a bit, but he's still rising at an astonishing speed."
"That's right. He'll definitely reach the 40th level next time!"
"The Dragon Emperor is also catching up. He's on the 33rd level. The Illusion Monument is indeed much more difficult."
"The Holy King has been surpassed by the Dragon King Oss. It seems that this Greos from Amir is something. He's worthy of the Gray family name!"
Apart from the fact that Su Ping was in first place, there was something strange about the subsequent changes in the rankings. They were all closely following each other. Occasionally, there would be changes in the rankings, but it was possible that the rankings would be reversed later on.
At the moment, the rankings had basically stabilized.
The young man with the wooden sword and the Dragon Emperor were the most likely to be at the top of the rankings. The second tier was the Dragon King Oss, the Holy King, the Queen of the Sea, and the Thousandleaf Virgin.
They were all people who had managed to get to the top of the rankings.
While there was a difference in the rankings, the difference in points between them wasn't huge.
Further down the rankings were the other geniuses. The gap between them wasn't that obvious. After all, the first few levels were relatively easy. They could finish them quickly and the gap between them couldn't be widened.
In order to differentiate the rankings, one would have to look at the later levels.
A moment later, the Star Lord who had left came back. He had a complicated look on his face. He looked at the top of the rankings with shock in his eyes.
"What do you mean?"
The Star Lord from the Academy of Kendo asked at once. He was upset. He knew that something had gone wrong, but he still didn't feel comfortable that someone else had stolen the first place.
The others also looked over with curiosity. The Illusion Tablet had never had any problems in so many years. They wondered what was going on this time.
"Lord Illusion Hunter said that everything is normal." The Star Lord of the Mysterious Realm weighed his words and said in a complicated tone.
At that moment, the words of Lord Illusion Hunter were still echoing in his mind: There will be no problems with the Illusion Tablet. Everything is real. I've already noticed that little guy. He's very interesting.
When he heard those words, it was as if he had been struck by lightning.
The Star Lord of the Mysterious Realm knew that Lord Illusion Hunter was either in seclusion or in a mental trance all year round. He never cared about the challenges in the Mysterious Realm. Every year, the Mysterious Realm would receive geniuses from all over the world, and there would be many who performed outstandingly. However, none of them could alarm Lord Illusion Hunter and attract his attention.
After all, as God Ascendants, the only thing that could interest them was the supreme and great goal of the Supreme God Realm.
As for geniuses and whatnot, unless they left behind a descendant for themselves, no matter how monstrous a genius was, it was meaningless to them. Even if they grew up, they would at most become God Ascendants and be on equal footing with them. There was no need for them to take the initiative to befriend each other. It would be extremely difficult for those who were slightly weaker to become God Ascendants, so they were not worthy of their attention at all.
"Everything is normal?!"
When the Mysterious Realm Star Lord's words came out, everyone was stunned, and their faces were filled with astonishment.
Sprinting from the 18th level to the 42nd level in ten minutes was considered normal?!
The few of them were a little confused, and they felt that it was not enough. However, since Lord Illusion Hunter had said it, it was obviously true. No one dared to question an Ascendant God!
"This, if this is true … then this guy is too monstrous!"
"Does this mean that this guy has been fooling around all this while?"
"…"
The other Star Lords were speechless, not knowing what to say.
Monstrous? Monster? That was more than enough to deal with the young man with the wooden sword, the Dragon Emperor, and the others. On the other hand, this strange guy was way ahead of them.
He was at the top of the group all by himself!
"I don't think it will be easy for him to reach the 50th level, not to mention the Illusion Monument of all kinds …" The Mysterious Realm Star Lord's mouth twitched. He had taught the young guy a lesson, but he didn't know that the young guy was so monstrous that even the successor of the Swordsman had been defeated.
He would never believe that a guy like this didn't have an Ascendant God teaching him.
No matter how talented you were, without resources and without a teacher, you wouldn't be able to go far!
Otherwise, what was the point of accumulating countless resources in a family that had been passed down from generation to generation?
"It seems that the young guy didn't rely on his battle pets because he's a pure manipulator. That Dragon Demon wasn't worth his time!"
"He wouldn't have been able to reach the 42nd level so quickly with his battle pets alone."
The Mysterious Realm Star Lords began to understand. They looked at each other. The eyes of the golden teacher from the Amir Royal Academy glowed with excitement.
Su Ping was participating as a student of the Amir Royal Academy. If Su Ping became famous, so would their academy!
Given Su Ping's performance, he would definitely be able to enter the Star Zone Selection. He might even be able to perform well in the finals!
This was a treasure that had fallen from the sky, right in front of their academy!
"Look, the list has been updated again."
A female Mysterious Realm Star Lord from the Shengyi Academy said.
