As soon as Ye Mo and the others approached the canyon, they discovered that there were experts blocking their way in midair. Ye Mo knew that these experts were elites handpicked from the seven first-rate forces. They formed an elite guard team to maintain order in the Genius Canyon.
"Stop right there!"
One of the guards went up and pointed to a place and said, "The contestants can gather over there. As for the people from your sect who came to watch the battle, please descend automatically and walk. There will be staff to guide you to the audience seats."
"Hurry up," the guard said. "We're accepting millions of participants today. Hurry up, or you'll be disqualified."
"Xiang Tianxing, you'll be in charge of protecting the three of them," the guard said. "There shouldn't be any accidents at the competition site. Yue Yue and I are going to gather now."
Ye Mo put away the Flying Palace and flew with Xiao Yue to the spot the guard had pointed at.
It was an empty field filled with many fighters. Every single one of them was very young and had an extraordinary aura. Ye Mo was wearing a black cloak, which made him look rather strange. There were countless fighters with strange appearances on the field, including some from the Demonic Clan and the Demonic Spirit Clan.
Ye Mo's Cosmos Nine Revolutions Realm wasn't weak among them. He was above average.
After waiting for an entire day, this spacious flat land was filled with people. There were a total of fifty thousand people gathered in this place. There were still twenty such gathering points. If one did not fly a thousand feet into the sky, it would be impossible to see all twenty gathering points.
A day had passed. There were less than two hours left before the competition began. During this time, there was a confirmation ceremony.
The confirmation ceremony was very simple. They had already seen that on their east side, which was the inner side of the circular canyon, there was a huge circular barrier. Only those with the Lingwu Heaven Medallion and below the age of 20 could enter the barrier. This was considered the official entrance.
"Now, all geniuses, enter the canyon!"
A loud, thunderous voice echoed in all directions. All the geniuses passed through the barrier and entered the center of the canyon.
Among them, there were no signs of people trying to take advantage of the situation. After all, if they were discovered, they would be killed on the spot.
Furthermore, Ye Mo discovered that the moment he entered the barrier, he could feel a powerful pressure pressing down on his body from all directions.
Another voice was heard.
"Everyone, the first round of selection has begun. Once you enter the barrier, you will enter a huge formation. Once you enter the formation, you will feel a powerful pressure on your body. If you can endure it for more than five minutes, you will be considered to have passed the first round of selection and officially entered the second round of the arena competition. If you can't bear it, think of a way to escape! "
The rules of the first elimination round were very simple.
For Ye Mo and Xiao Yue, this wasn't a challenge at all. This kind of pressure could only be used against experts below the Cosmos Fourth Transformation.
Sure enough, in less than a minute, there were cultivators who couldn't endure it any longer. Some of them soared into the sky and charged out of the barrier, while others tore through space and escaped through the spatial tunnel.
All in all, because the canyon was very big, the 20 match points were almost carried out at the same time. It only took five minutes for the first round of screening to end.
"Yue Yue, I'm afraid that ninety percent of the geniuses will be eliminated in the first round."
Ye Mo said calmly.
"Yes, but I heard that these eliminated geniuses might continue to compete in the third round."
Xiao Yue said calmly.
"Oh?"
Ye Mo asked curiously, "Where did you hear that?"
"Just now, someone beside me told me that he's a genius from a first-rate force. I heard that in the third round, all the fighters who were eliminated in the first and second round will become assisting contestants. They still have a chance to stand out. As for the specific rules, I'm not too sure," Xiao Yue said.
"Congratulations to the geniuses who have passed the first round.
"Congratulations to the geniuses who have successfully passed the first round of assessment. There are a total of 890,000 participants, and 100,000 geniuses have successfully passed the assessment. Geniuses who have been eliminated, don't be disheartened. You may be selected to participate in the third round, and the second round will be the arena competition."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the geniuses' morale was boosted.
The arena tournament was a battle of real swords and spears. There was not the slightest bit of exaggeration.
Of course, luck was also involved. If one's opponent was always weaker than them, they would naturally be able to fight their way out and enter the third round.
"Congratulations to the qualified participants," Xiao Yue said. "Your next task is to head to the depths of the canyon and enter the competition area. There are 1,000 naturally formed arenas there. These arenas are divided into 100 levels. Every ten arenas represent one level, with one being the lowest and one hundred being the highest. The competition will last for three days. Once you become the champion, you will advance to the next round. Apart from the champion, the contestants in each arena will have one chance to challenge the champion. The higher the level of the champion, the more advantageous it will be for you to advance to the third round."
Hearing this, Ye Mo understood the rules.
There were 1,000 arenas in the canyon. Ten arenas were divided into one level. In other words, there were 10 Level 100 arenas, 10 Level 99 arenas, and 10 Level 1 arenas.
Because the champion of the advanced arenas would have an advantage in the third round, the stronger the fighter, the more likely they would choose to challenge the advanced arenas.
Moreover, the contestants in each arena would have one chance to challenge the champion. This way, they could avoid relying on luck.
Experts who were eliminated could challenge the lower-level arenas.
In the end, those who managed to become one thousand arena lords were definitely geniuses whose strength was ranked in the top one thousand. Those who were weak could only suffer the fate of being eliminated.
This way, it could prevent two top geniuses from being eliminated early due to a coincidental collision.
Contestants from all directions rushed to the depths of the canyon. Because the Genius Canyon was so big, it didn't feel crowded at all.
Next, the crowd saw that there were 1,000 huge arenas.
There were a total of 10 rows and 100 rows. Each row represented one level.
Ye Mo could also see that there were already many spectators above the canyon, especially at the top of a mountain peak. There was a very beautiful spectator stand with seven huge thrones on it. Each throne had an expert in the Divine Realm.
Beside him stood a genius, and every single one of them was valiant, heroic, and possessed extraordinary bearings.
Almost all the geniuses who entered the arena looked at the seven figures on the stand. Their eyes were filled with amazement, passion, and envy.
These seven people represented the pinnacle of the younger generation in the Lingwu Continent.
However, no one knew who would be the winner of the Battle of Lingwu Geniuses.
