Ripples spread out outside of the monument, and a man stepped out. It was none other than the Wooden Sword Boy.
He was still carrying a wooden sword on his back; his lips were red and his teeth were white; he looked quite relaxed and harmless. He immediately sensed the senses of the seven Star Lords the moment he stepped out of the monument.
His expression was indifferent. Ever since he was young, he had always been the center of attention wherever he went.
He was already used to it.
Whoosh!
At that moment, another man stepped out in front of another monument. He was tall and imposing; it was none other than the Dragon Emperor.
There was some tiredness in his eyes, but he hid it the moment he stepped out of the monument; a king would never show his weakness. He looked around indifferently and saw the young man who carried a wooden sword in front of the monument. He raised his eyebrows in relief.
He came out at the same time as me?
So to speak, the number of floors they challenged was probably the same.
However, the dragon-class monuments were more difficult and gave more points!
That meant that the latter would have been crushed by him!
The Sword God's heir wasn't that good after all.
The Wooden Sword Boy frowned when he saw the Dragon Emperor. He had the same thought as the Dragon Emperor, which made him doubt himself. Was he wrong? Could that guy be stronger than him?
He had already tried his best in the monument.
After all, he wouldn't have been exposed even if he had used all his trump cards.
He found it hard to believe.
While they looked at each other, more people stepped out of the monuments nearby. They were none other than Holy King, the Thousand Leaves Holy Lady, Queen of the Seas and the others.
"Get out of the way."
An indifferent and cold voice echoed behind the Dragon Emperor.
Then, ripples spread out from the dragon-class monument, and Oasis Dragon King stepped out. His hair was loose, and he looked down at everyone with indifference and disdain. He was as domineering as the Dragon Emperor.
Everybody narrowed their eyes after seeing that Oasis Dragon King was the last one to step out. Nobody dared to underestimate the top student of the Amir Royal Academy.
When the Dragon Emperor heard these cold words, he narrowed his eyes and glanced over with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
Everybody in front of the score monument noticed the noises when they walked out of the monument. They were shocked, but they weren't as excited as they thought they would be. Instead, they were disappointed and regretful.
The Wooden Sword Boy, the Dragon Emperor, and the others clearly sensed their disappointment and regret. They were slightly puzzled, but they didn't ask any questions and flew straight to the score monument.
They wanted to see who would take first place.
None of the five major academies were willing to submit to each other. They were all geniuses at the top of the mountain, so naturally, they would not submit to each other. However, they could not fight with all their might here. After all, the upcoming Universe Genius Battle was their final stage.
However, the test of the monument would also show the gap between them.
"I'm definitely going to get first place!"
The Holy King chuckled. His eyes were full of arrogance as he flew away with an invincible aura.
The Wooden Sword Boy's expression was calm as he flew straight ahead.
The Dragon Emperor sneered after hearing what the Holy King said. He didn't bother to say anything, but he didn't hide the disdain and contempt on his face.
"They're all out."
"Sigh, it seems that there's really no hope."
"We can't compare to that monster, but we're definitely second!"
"Humph, Theo Mia's Gemini Star is so arrogant. Now that the rankings of the first round are out, keep shouting!"
The geniuses standing in front of the monument wore complicated expressions. Although they were regretful that they had lost the chance to compete for the first place, they could still compete for the top spot.
"Huh?"
The young man carrying a wooden sword flew closer. Hearing the whispers of the crowd, he frowned slightly and a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes.
At this moment, he focused his gaze on the towering score monument. His eyes were fixed on the first place, but he didn't see himself there. It wasn't Dragon Emperor, Oasis Dragon King, or anyone else. Instead, it was someone who surprised him.
It's him?
The next moment, the Wooden Sword Boy's body came to an abrupt halt, as if he had been struck by lightning. His eyes narrowed in disbelief.
The 95th floor?!
He was stunned, especially when he saw the horrifying points and the type of monument he was challenging. His mind went blank, even though he had always been calm.
The 95th floor of the all-class monument!
Did I make a mistake?
The Dragon Emperor, Oasis Dragon King, the Thousand Leaves Holy Lady and the others all saw the score monument when the Wooden Sword Boy stopped. All of them looked at the top of the list.
They all thought that they had a chance to win the first place, but they were all stunned when they saw who was at the top.
When they saw the number of floors and points, everyone was dumbfounded, their faces filled with confusion.
That was a number that was beyond their imagination!
They might have had a chance to reach that rank if they had trained hard in the monument for a couple of months. But then, someone had reached the 95th floor?
Not to mention that the all-class monument was the most difficult one!
"It's … It's him …?"
Oasis Dragon King was dumbfounded when he saw who it was. Even someone as shrewd as him lost control of his expression.
The person at the top turned out to be Su Ping, who had arrived on the same spaceship as him.
Is that guy really that strong?
He suddenly remembered that he had challenged Su Ping to a duel, but Su Ping had turned it down, as he didn't think it was necessary …
He couldn't help but twitch his lips. He had thought that Su Ping was a coward, but it was clear that the guy had mistaken him for Koro, and thought that there was no need for a duel.
However, was he really comparable to Koro?
Koro could beat him up with one hand!
However, there was no difference in the guy's eyes. That was too insulting!
Koro: "???"
"That's impossible!"
Suddenly, an angry and cold shout rang out.
The Dragon Emperor's eyes widened with coldness and fury. He flew to the score monument and looked down, only to find that his name was in third place, right below the Sword God's heir. He felt a sharp pain in his heart again. He looked at the seven Star Lords and asked, "Is there something wrong with the score monument?"
The seven Star Lords were calm; only the Star Lord of the Dragon Tomb Academy looked awful. The Dragon Emperor had always been proud, but he had lost his cool at the moment.
"The score monument can't be wrong," said the instructor with a mocking tone. Amir's teacher said indifferently with a hint of mockery in his tone. Questioning the score monument was the same as questioning Su Ping, and Su Ping had been brought there by their academy. Of course, he had to help him.
"Yes, we've checked with Lord Huan Lieshen. There's nothing wrong with the score monument," the Star Lord of the Dragon Tomb quickly said. The Star Lord of the Dragon Tomb Academy hurried to interject. He didn't want the Dragon Emperor to say more, as he would only feel more humiliated. However, he knew that it was all true. The guy at the top of the list was a genius among geniuses. Even Huan Lieshen was interested in him!
"…"
Dragon Emperor was about to say something else, but he stopped when he saw that even the mentors of his own academy had spoken and mentioned Lord Huan Lieshen. He couldn't have been more shocked, but his pupils were dilated again.
He had struggled to reach the 70th floor; he knew how difficult it was inside the monument.
It was already difficult for him to reach the 80th floor, and yet someone had reached the 95th floor?
Didn't it mean that the guy was strong enough to crush him easily?
They were both in the Fate State. Why was there such a huge gap between them?
The Dragon Emperor found it hard to accept. He believed that he had already touched the ceiling of the Fate State, and that only the super monsters could compete with him. However, his pride had been doused before he even participated in the Universe Geniuses' Contest. He couldn't have felt more uncomfortable.
Everybody else heard the Dragon Emperor's question and the Star Lord's response. The Wooden Sword Boy, the Thousand Leaves Holy Lady and the others were silent, but they had complicated expressions.
It was true.
The guy who had defeated Dragon Devil with his battle pets had been hiding such horrifying strength.
They had thought that he was a pure manipulator whose main strength came from his battle pets.
It was obvious that his personal combat ability was even more horrifying. A pure manipulator would never be able to reach the 95th floor!
"This guy has been hiding his strength so well!" The Thousand Leaves Holy Lady wore a complicated expression. She remembered how Su Ping refused to accept the challenge when Dragon Devil challenged Su Ping. She had thought that he was a coward, and later thought that it was because he didn't want to deal with Dragon Devil. It seemed that he simply regarded Dragon Devil as a bug.
He didn't even bother to respond to the bug's challenge.
Therefore, he didn't bother to fight when the guy asked him to. He seemed to be avoiding the battle, but in fact, he didn't feel the slightest sense of shame.
After all, Dragon Devil was an ant that he could crush with a wave of his hand!
They were both in the Fate State, but the gap between them was so huge.
The Thousand Leaves Holy Lady's heart was shaken. She was the top student in the Holy Oriole Academy and had high hopes. The academy had planned to show the world the strength of the Holy Oriole Academy with her performance and make it one of the five academies again.
However, she was deeply suspicious at the moment.
Was she really as unparalleled and excellent as the mentors in the academy claimed?
If she was a once-in-a-lifetime genius, then … what was this guy?
Not far away from the Thousand Leaves Holy Lady — the young man with a wooden sword on his back looked at the top of the list after hearing the mentors of the Dragon Tomb Academy. He fell silent.
However, he slowly clenched his fists in his sleeves. The harmless smile on his face was gone, and he became as cold and rigid as a rock.
On the other hand, Holy King and Queen of the Seas, the twin stars of the Hugh Mia Academy, looked at each other in silence. Their arrogance was gone at that moment.
Who would have thought that a super horrifying monster would be among the geniuses?
"So this is the guy who came to participate in the Universe Geniuses Contest …" The Goddess of Light's eyes were filled with confusion. The mentors in the academy had told her that compared to the previous Universe Geniuses Contest data, she had a great chance of entering the Star Zone Challenge Contest with her strength, and she could even get a good ranking. At that time, she had felt a little uncomfortable, feeling that the academy had underestimated her.
However, she had truly felt the vastness of the universe at that moment.
It turned out that extraordinary people could really be born in the boundless universe of the Federation!
There was one person in the crowd who had been silent the whole time.
It was Yuan Linglu.
She had left early, but had only reached the 35th floor. She was ranked at the bottom, which was a bit discouraging for her. The academy had told her that she was only there to train herself, and that she was still inexperienced compared to the other geniuses of her rank.
She agreed with the academy. After all, she had seen how horrifying the twins were in the academy. She was also in the Fate State, but the gap between them had left a deep impression on her. She also realized that there were many geniuses in the universe. She was lucky enough to have one of the ten thunder constitutions, but there were a lot of geniuses who were stronger than her.
For example, the guys who had one of the ten divine constitutions were the real top geniuses.
However, she didn't expect that the guy who had been born on the same planet as her, robbed her of her legacies, and challenged the Tower on the Blue Star would still be so dazzling in space!
He was even more horrifying in that vast world than he had been on the Blue Star.
Even evildoers like the Gemini Stars were suppressed under his feet!
Cultivate hard and go back to the Blue Star for revenge … Was that even possible?
Yuan Linglu felt that some of her goals had collapsed; they had become something impossible.
Amidst the silence, it was time for the score monument to be updated. Suddenly, a golden light shone again.
The geniuses who were still immersed in the sorrowful atmosphere couldn't help but look over, and the sadness in their hearts cracked open a little. They saw that the guy at the top of the list had his points increased explosively, and the number of floors he challenged had also increased to 96!
Was he going to reach the 99th floor in one go?
Some people held their heads, feeling that their blood was freezing. That world was too crazy.
The Dragon Emperor and the others were even more silent; their expressions were even more awful.
Right then, ripples spread out in front of the most magnificent all-class monument, and a man stepped out. It was none other than Su Ping.
At this moment, countless gazes shot out like arrows and landed on that figure.
He's out!
For some reason, many people heaved a sigh of relief at this moment.
The Dragon Emperor, the young man in the wooden armor and the others were obviously more relaxed, but they still looked solemn. This time, they only had eyes for the young man.
"Huh?"
Su Ping sensed everyone's attention as soon as he stepped out of the monument. He looked around, only to find that all the students were present. So, was he the last one to leave?
Su Ping instantly understood. He flew down and looked at the score monument, only to find that he was at the top.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows, wondering if he had been too ostentatious.
He wasn't too surprised by the result.
However, Su Ping was surprised when he saw the rankings of the Wooden Sword Boy, the Dragon Emperor and the other geniuses.
Those guys seemed to be weaker than he had imagined.
