Wang Teng didn't care about the discussions of the people outside. After he entered the military's giant battleship fortress, someone came out to greet him.
It was that Major Maxwell!
"Colonel Wang Teng, long time no see!" Major Maxwell saluted Wang Teng and said respectfully.
It could be seen that he was even more excited than before when he saw Wang Teng in person.
"Major Maxwell, it's nice to meet you," Wang Teng returned the salute and said, "You guys sure made a big scene!"
"Hahaha, it's because you're Major Wang Teng that you're qualified to be treated like this. Moreover, it's an order from the higher-ups." Maxwell smiled and led the way in front. "Please follow me."
Wang Teng nodded and followed.
The two of them passed through the giant fortress. Wang Teng looked around curiously and found that it was just like a military base. It was heavily guarded and there were many military fighters at various positions.
Fortunately, Maxwell was leading the way and no one stopped them. Otherwise, it would have taken a lot of time just to verify their identities.
Wang Teng didn't know that most of these fighters knew him. They would stop and salute him whenever they saw him on the way.
Therefore, even without Maxwell leading the way, as long as they reported their names, they would probably be unimpeded.
"We're here!"
The two of them finally arrived at the fortress's control center. Maxwell stopped in front of a metal door.
He tapped twice on the metal wall and a light screen appeared to verify their identities. Only then did the door slowly open.
"Colonel Wang Teng, please come in. General Fu Xinglan is already waiting for you inside," Maxwell said.
"General Fu Xinglan!" Wang Teng's heart trembled slightly. He didn't expect General Fu Xinglan to be here.
He nodded at Maxwell and stepped into the metal door.
Inside was a huge control room. Many figures were busy. In front of a light screen stood a familiar figure.
This person was none other than the immortal rank existence who had awarded Wang Teng the Country Pillar Medal back at Defense Star XXIX — General Fu Xinglan!
"General Fu Xinglan!" Wang Teng saluted the other party's back.
"You've come!" General Fu Xinglan turned around and sized him up. He said with some surprise, "How long has it been since we last met? You've gotten a lot stronger."
Wang Teng's heart tightened. This General Fu Xinglan was indeed an immortal rank expert. His eyes were like torches, and he could actually see that Wang Teng's strength had increased.
However, he didn't show any expression on his face. He just said modestly, "I was just lucky!"
"There is no such thing as luck on the path of martial arts!" Fu Xinglan shook his head and praised, "Your talent is indeed very good."
"General, you flatter me," Wang Teng said.
"Hahaha, I didn't think that even Fu Xinglan would praise you so much." A laugh suddenly came from the side.
Wang Teng couldn't help but be shocked. He quickly turned around and didn't see the two figures standing not far from Fu Xinglan.
These two figures seemed to not exist and blended into the surroundings. If one of them didn't take the initiative to speak, Wang Teng probably wouldn't have noticed them.
"Two immortal rank experts!" His pupils shrunk. He was shocked and in disbelief.
Immortal rank!
There were actually two immortal rank existences here!
Including General Fu Xinglan, there were a total of three immortal ranks!
It seemed like the Empire really placed great importance on this Battle of Geniuses. Even the military had sent out three immortal rank experts to oversee it.
This was only on the surface. There might be other experts hiding in the dark.
Wang Teng secretly took a deep breath. He had a new understanding of immortal rank experts.
These experts were too terrifying. If they wanted to hide, he wouldn't be able to discover their existence with his methods.
Unless they took the initiative to show themselves.
"This is General Habakkak!" General Fu Xinglan introduced.
General Habakkak was an elder with long golden fluffy hair like a lion. He had a full beard, thick eyebrows, and big eyes. He had a rough appearance. The one who spoke was this general.
"General Habakkak!" Wang Teng sized him up discreetly. The words' Golden-Haired Lion King 'popped up in his mind for no reason. Then, he bowed respectfully.
"Alright, no need to be so polite." General Habakkak waved his hand. He looked at Wang Teng and said, "Kid, you're not bad. Perform well in the Battle of Geniuses. Raise the prestige of our military!"
"I'll naturally do my best," Wang Teng said solemnly.
"This is General Tang Wuwei!" General Fu Xinglan introduced the other immortal rank expert who hadn't spoken yet.
This immortal rank expert looked cold. He didn't have any extra expression on his face. His gaze was indifferent, as if he didn't want anyone to get close to him.
"This General Tang Wuwei is a cold-faced man!" Wang Teng muttered in his mind. He also bowed and greeted him.
"Mm." General Tang Wuwei nodded.
"Ha, this is rare. In the past, when others greeted you, you wouldn't even nod." General Habakkak laughed.
General Fu Xinglan also looked at him in surprise.
Wang Teng was a little puzzled. Could it be that he was already being treated specially?
There were a few young figures at the side. When they saw the three immortal rank experts being so "friendly" to Wang Teng, they couldn't help but look at each other in shock.
"They are the military geniuses who are participating in the Battle of Geniuses with you." At this moment, General Fu Xinglan pointed at the young figures and said, "You guys should get to know each other."
Wang Teng turned around. He had already noticed a few young figures at the side. They were all at the peak of the star level. Their aura wasn't weak, and they exuded an experienced and iron-blooded aura. Ordinary star level martial warriors couldn't compare to them.
He also noticed that these young warriors had been looking at him ever since he came in. They seemed to be probing him.
"Colonel Wang Teng, I've heard a lot about you." A muscular youth walked up and bowed. "I'm Song Yicheng, Major. I'm from defense planet 35."
"My name is Hong Jinghou, Major. I'm from Defense Planet No.38!" Another young warrior with a slender figure introduced himself.
"I'm Lv Jing, Major. I'm from defense planet 63," an ordinary-looking woman with a ponytail and slightly tanned skin said.
…
A total of six warriors came up and introduced themselves. The other three were called Ma Nan, Atley, and Fang Tianrui. They all came from different defense planets. They were all peak star states and majors.
Wang Teng was the only military martial warrior with the rank of colonel.
This wasn't strange. If he didn't have great achievements, he wouldn't be able to become a colonel at such a young age.
It wasn't that easy to get promoted in the Qian Empire.
These prodigies were all very young. It was already very outstanding for them to be able to reach the rank of major.
Of course, there were more than these six people participating in the Battle of Geniuses. However, they were the strongest, so they were summoned.
"Okay, since everyone is here, you guys can go to the waiting area immediately. The battle is about to begin." General Fu Xinglan waved his hand.
Wang Teng heard this and sweated. So, he was the last to arrive.
However, he didn't say anything and left with the six prodigies.
General Fu Xinglan and the others watched them leave and said, "I hope our military can amaze the world this time!"
"Song Yicheng and the others have a chance of entering the top 100." General Habacak paused and shook his head. "As for Wang Teng, I can't see through him."
"It's not just you. Even I can't see through him. I can only feel that his chi is much stronger than before. It seems he has some secret technique to hide his cultivation level," General Fu Xinglan said.
"Maybe he can really compete with the emperor?!" General Habacak's words were shocking. He actually believed that Wang Teng could compete with the emperor.
"I didn't expect you to have such high hopes for him after just meeting him once," General Fu Xinglan said with surprise.
"I've always been very good at judging people. Hahaha." General Habacak laughed.
"One out of a hundred times," General Tang Wuwei said coldly.
"…" General Habacak's voice suddenly stopped. He said angrily, "Bullsh * t, one out of fifty times at most."
General Fu Xinglan: "…"
Wang Teng and the others walked out of the main control room. The metal door behind them slowly closed.
"Wang Teng, those two immortals are super big shots of the military." Yuan Gungun's excited voice sounded in Wang Teng's mind.
When he was inside, he didn't dare to speak. After all, those were three immortals.
Now that Wang Teng walked out of the main control room, he couldn't help but want to share the information he just found with Wang Teng.
"You know them?" Wang Teng asked curiously in his mind.
"Of course I know. Their reputations aren't small. They are all powerhouses whose might shakes the starry sky. You can find them as long as you check." If you can find them, you can find them. "Yuan Gungun said regretfully." However, it's all before sector lord level. After immortal level, there's no way to find them. "
Then, he sent the information about the two generals to Wang Teng's mind.
Wang Teng skimmed through it and was shocked. Indeed, those who could reach immortal level were not simple people.
"Colonel Wang Teng, majors, please follow me." Maxwell's voice pulled Wang Teng back to reality.
He had been waiting outside for a long time. At this moment, he immediately led Wang Teng and the others out of the huge fortress and appeared in the outer space.
"I'll stop here. I wish you all a good ranking." Maxwell saluted them and said.
"Thank you!" Wang Teng returned the salute.
Song Yicheng and the others also returned the salute.
After that, they didn't say anything else. They turned into streaks of light and flew towards the contestant waiting area.
Only now did Wang Teng know that the three continents were actually the contestant waiting area.
For the Genius Tournament, three continents were used as the contestant waiting area. It was quite exaggerated.
However, it was understandable. There were far too many contestants here, at least in the hundreds of billions. Without these three continents, there was no way they could accommodate so many people.
As for the spectators, there were even more.
There were eighteen giant satellites around the Battle Star, each one larger than Earth Star. Those were … the spectator areas!
In truth, if not for the Battle Star being so large and having so many satellites, it really wouldn't have been able to accommodate so many people.
Wang Teng, Song Yicheng, and the other five arrived in the airspace above the three continents without any obstructions. Immediately, a receptionist appeared to receive them.
The receptionist first looked curiously at Wang Teng and then said, "Please wait at the first continent."
The three continents were different.
The first continent was like a VIP area.
For example, the princes and princesses of the Eight Royal Clans were all waiting at the first continent.
Wang Teng and the others were geniuses of the Army, so they naturally had the right to enter the first continent's waiting area.
However, Wang Teng and the others didn't care about these things.
Under the guidance of the receptionist, Wang Teng and the others entered the first continent.
After landing, Wang Teng curiously looked around and realized that the ground was made of limestone, and he couldn't see the end of it.
It was obvious that the entire continent was probably like this.
Figures were seated cross-legged on the limestone. Some were cultivating with their eyes closed, some were chatting, and some were wandering around … and so on!
Wang Teng's arrival immediately attracted the attention of many people. The Eight Royal Clans and the Princes all looked over.
Perhaps it was intentional, but it turned out that the area Wang Teng had appeared in was where the most popular geniuses had gathered.
Wang Teng's gaze swept over the area. Other than the Eight Royal Clans and the Princes, there were also many geniuses who looked decent. He didn't know where they came from.
For example, a few hundred meters to his left, there was a young man in a gray robe sitting cross-legged on the ground with a long sword on his lap. However, he was like a sheathed sword, not revealing its sharpness. He looked very ordinary, and no one realized that he was actually very strong.
There were also all kinds of geniuses, all of whom were not weak. Although he couldn't see their specific strength, they were definitely not ordinary geniuses.
Wang Teng was secretly excited. With so many geniuses, how many attribute bubbles would he have?!
No matter what, he had to take advantage of this Battle of Geniuses!
Wang Teng thought happily. Suddenly, he noticed many gazes filled with malice. He couldn't help but smile inwardly. His appearance earlier had probably stimulated the competitive spirit of these geniuses. Now, no matter how they looked at him, he was an eyesore.
However, he didn't take it to heart. Ignoring all the ambiguous gazes around him, he took out a set of tables and chairs and placed them on the ground. Then, he sat down leisurely and even took out a large sun umbrella with Runes inscribed on it.
The climate of this Battle Planet was very harsh. There were actually three stars in the sky, and the heat they emitted was astonishing.
Although he didn't fear the sunlight, why would he let himself be exposed to it if he could block it?
He lay down on the recliner and a cup of iced cola appeared in his hand. He drank it in a carefree manner.
Song Yicheng and the others: "…"
Everyone: "…"
For a moment, the surrounding atmosphere was a little strange.
Wang Teng saw Song Yicheng and the others standing to the side in a daze and hurriedly called out, "Oh, I forgot about you guys. Come, come, come, everyone sit down and rest."
"No … There's no need." Song Yicheng looked at the strange gazes around him and wanted to refuse.
"No need to be so polite. We're all family. Come, have a drink to cool down." Wang Teng pulled them to sit down.
Song Yicheng and the others couldn't refuse and could only reluctantly sit down under the gazes of everyone around them. However, they felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles, and their whole bodies were uncomfortable.
