In the small space, Chu Mu leisurely sat on a cushion. He took out a jug of wine from his spatial ring and began to drink. Like him, there were also a few geniuses who did the same. There were even some who took out tables and chairs, as well as wine and food. They leisurely drank and ate, causing countless people to be envious.
Most of the geniuses sat upright or looked calm, but they were a little nervous inside.
It was very cruel to choose one out of a thousand people. They couldn't help but be nervous. Even if some of them knew that they had no chance, they still had some hope. However, some of them were more open-minded. They knew that they had no chance, so they let go of their thoughts and treated this competition as an opportunity to hone themselves.
They were all different, waiting quietly for their choice.
At this moment, the geniuses in the two small spaces were shot by a ray of light. They disappeared and reappeared in the middle of the battle space.
The two of them were both at the First Sky of Nirvana Realm. There wasn't much difference between them.
First, they exchanged a few words. Then, they drew their swords and attacked.
If there wasn't much difference in cultivation, it would depend on other aspects of cultivation. For example, sword skills, the Power of Heaven and Earth, sword intent, and so on. If there wasn't much difference in these aspects, it would depend on one's combat experience, combat talent, and grasp of timing.
The two geniuses weren't much different in strength. The battle lasted for half an hour. After using up sixty to seventy percent of their strength, the winner was finally decided.
The winner was sent back to the original small space, while the loser was sent out of the Celestial Realm and back to the starship.
The battle in the Celestial Realm would be projected to the outside world. It was as if real people were fighting, making people feel as if they were there. Everyone on the starship, no matter from which angle, could see it clearly.
Among these starships, there were starships from Heavenly Sword Hall, Deep Night Sword Sect, and also starships from the ten overlords. There were also starships from other forces. They surrounded the Celestial Star Realm densely. At the same time, they also provided layers of protection for the Celestial Star Realm.
After the first battle ended, the Celestial Realm immediately refreshed the candidates for the second battle. They appeared in the battle space.
In the second round, one was at the late stage of the First Sky of Nirvana Realm, while the other was at the middle stage of the First Sky of Nirvana Realm. The difference of one level was not big, but there was still a gap.
The battle was also very intense. Every sword and every move was exquisite and unique. Chu Mu drank his wine while watching the battle. He divided his attention into three and immersed himself in the battle.
The result of the battle was a little unexpected. The genius at the middle stage of the First Sky of Nirvana Realm won with an obvious advantage.
After the second round ended, the third round was about to begin. There was no time to rest at all. It was very tight.
Battles continued one after another. In these battles, there was no need to hold back. They could display their strength to their heart's content. They didn't need to worry about killing their opponents because the deaths here were all fake. Under the special rules of the Celestial Astral World, they could be revived. This was also the reason why the Celestial Astral World was so difficult to construct.
Otherwise, if he couldn't be revived, he wouldn't be able to unleash his full strength in battle, and he wouldn't be able to test his true strength.
After battle after battle, Chu Mu was chosen. Coincidentally, his opponent was a genius at the First Sky of Nirvana Realm. He was also a disciple of the Five Elements Sword Sect. He was Chu Mu's senior brother.
"Senior Brother Chu, please." The genius cupped his hands and bowed to Chu Mu to show his respect. He didn't ask Chu Mu to be merciful.
"Please." After Chu Mu returned the bow, a sword appeared in his hand.
This sword wasn't the Sky Beheading Sword, but the Imperishable Sword. The Sky Beheading Sword was a Saint Sword that surpassed supreme grade swords. Most of them were stored in the Dantian. Only strong enemies were worthy of being killed by the Sky Beheading Sword.
The power of the Imperishable Sword was enough to deal with the current battle.
When the battle started, Chu Mu didn't use the Ancient Azure Sword Art. The power of the Ancient Azure Sword Art was tyrannical. Once he used it, it would be enough to defeat his opponent. If it was someone else, Chu Mu wouldn't care. However, his opponent was a junior brother of the same sect, and he was also very respectful towards him. He planned to use this opportunity to give his opponent some pointers before defeating him.
"This person is the number one of the Heaven Ascension List, Chu Mu."
The moment Chu Mu appeared, many people immediately started discussing. Every one of them widened their eyes. The number one of the Heaven Ascension List was extremely valuable.
In the Dark Night Sword Sect's starship, there was an important figure present. It was the strongest expert of the Dark Night Sword Sect that had always been in seclusion. He was also the pillar of the Dark Night Sword Sect, the Dark Night Emperor.
The biggest difference between a dominator force and an overlord force wasn't the strength of the sect's foundation or the number of geniuses, but the number of experts. A dominator force would at least have an Emperor Realm expert overseeing it.
"Zhenyu, what do you think of this kid?" The Dark Night Emperor said slowly, his voice faint. Beside him stood a man who looked to be less than thirty years old. His aura was profound and unfathomable.
"Master, although this kid's cultivation isn't high, his sword art isn't weak." Qin Zhenyu said. His voice was faint, and it was similar to the Dark Night Emperor's voice.
He was the last disciple of the Dark Night Emperor. Unfortunately, he was already over a hundred years old and couldn't participate in the Heaven Azure List.
The Dark Night Emperor didn't reply to Qin Zhenyu's evaluation.
Those with a high cultivation realm could see the profoundness within, but those who weren't could only see the surface.
"This is Chu Mu's strength?"
"This is too disappointing. The number one of the Heaven Ascension List is only at this level."
"How are the Heaven Ascension List and the Galaxy Genius List calculated? How can he be ranked number one with such strength?"
Those who didn't know about the Heaven Azure Virtual World started to question after seeing Chu Mu's battle. They felt that the Galaxy Genius List and the Heaven Ascension List didn't live up to their names.
"What's fake will always be fake." Many of the geniuses looked at Chu Mu's performance and were secretly puzzled. At the same time, they revealed mocking expressions as they looked down on Chu Mu.
However, there were a few people who didn't understand. Even if Chu Mu's cultivation wasn't high, based on the talent he had displayed in the Heaven Azure Virtual World, his strength should be even stronger.
This battle lasted for half an hour. In the end, Chu Mu seized an opportunity to defeat and kill his opponent.
In theory, this battle could still continue. However, his opponent immediately put away his sword and saluted Chu Mu. "Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother Chu."
He admitted defeat himself and left the Heavenly Star Realm. Only he, as the person involved, knew best that the battle just now was completely due to Chu Mu's guidance. Otherwise, he could have defeated him with a thunderous momentum from the start.
He also understood that the reason Chu Mu spent some time to teach him was because they were fellow disciples of the same sect. Thus, he felt even more respect for Chu Mu.
Chu Mu knew what the others were thinking when they looked at Chu Mu. They had overestimated him before, but he didn't care. What he did and what kind of strength he displayed was his own business. It had nothing to do with others. Similarly, how others looked at him was their business. It had nothing to do with him.
Geniuses were often more stubborn and even self-centered.
The other disciples of the Five Elements Sword Sect were a little worried.
No matter what, the competition still had to continue. It wouldn't stop because of anyone.
In the outside world, the discussion was even more intense. The topic was none other than Chu Mu. He was first on the Galaxy Genius List and first on the Heaven Ascension List. He didn't live up to his name. Even if his cultivation was only at the First Sky of Nirvana Realm, he shouldn't have taken half an hour to defeat an opponent of similar cultivation. One had to know that his opponent wasn't on the Heaven Ascension List.
"What's going on? With this kid's strength, it shouldn't be like this. "Inside the Five Elements Sword Sect's starship, the elders were puzzled.
Someone suggested to call the person who fought with Chu Mu over and ask him clearly. Then, they learned that Chu Mu was guiding him. They all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Those who underestimated him will have to pay the price in the end." Vice Sect Master Baiqiong smiled.
Regarding Chu Mu, as the competition progressed, the topic gradually shifted. Especially when it was Chen Gang's turn to go on stage, he used an incomparably fierce and unyielding stance to defeat his opponent in one move. Thus, the topic completely shifted to Chen Gang.
Then, Zhu Tiantong, Yang Xuan, and the others also ruthlessly killed their opponents with an absolute advantage. They also became the center of the topic. On the other hand, Chu Mu was gradually forgotten.
The loser left, and the winner stayed to wait for the next competition.
After winning and returning to the small space, the small space had a special feature that accelerated the recovery of strength.
Chu Mu watched the battle between Zhu Tiantong, Chen Gang, Yang Xuan, and the others very carefully. Although they all defeated their opponents with one move, Chu Mu also saw some details. However, it was still not enough. If he wanted to know more about the strength of these people, he needed to watch more.
Among the thousand geniuses, there were not many who had reached the Third Sky of Nirvana Realm. Only ten of them had reached that level. For example, Lin Yi of the Five Elements Sword Sect was at the peak of the Second Sky of Nirvana Realm.
It was unknown whether it was deliberate or not, but the ten geniuses who had reached the Third Sky of Nirvana Realm were not opponents. It seemed that they might be reserved for later battles.
However, it was still exciting to watch the geniuses at the Third Sky of Nirvana Realm fight. It was neat and clear, like thunder breaking through the sky, like a volcanic eruption. Even if it was just watching the images projected from the Heavenly Star Boundary, it gave people the feeling that they were there. They could hear the sound and feel the fluctuation of the aura.
The difference in cultivation level and the strength of the aura were very obvious.
In addition, the geniuses at the peak of the Second Sky of Nirvana Realm were very eye-catching.
Compared to the geniuses at the Third Sky of Nirvana Realm, there were more geniuses at the peak of the Second Sky of Nirvana Realm, but not by much. There were less than thirty of them. Lin Yi of the Five Elements Sword Sect was one of them, and the Dark Night Sword Sect had the most.
Among the ten overlord sects, the Five Elements Sword Sect could only be ranked in the bottom five. In terms of the number of geniuses, it was naturally inferior.
