Chapter 61: Wind Rising in the Universe
As a grand event jointly held by the 1008 advanced universe nations and top giant forces in the universe.

There is only one session every five thousand years, so there are countless geniuses who want to sign up, so the registration period is a full month.

The registration deadline is at midnight on April 2066, 4, Earth time.

Virtual universe, Heilongshan Island, Guangyuan Bay Community.

After the registration ended, Shen Mu and the other three received an email from the Virtual Universe Company.

The content of the email was the rules of the genius battle and some simple information, such as the total number of participants.

Across the Qianwu Universe, more than 8225 billion stellar-level masters have signed up to participate in the competition.

Also, because the strength of the contestants varies, for the sake of fairness, the physical fitness and mental strength of all participants will be exactly the same and maintained at the ninth level of the star grade.

At the same time, you can choose any grades of Force weapons and telekinetic weapons in the game (up to 10 pieces), but you can only choose one Force suit, there is no limit to the type, and they are all second-level suits.

The talent selection battle is divided into two major stages.

The first stage is the Universe Country Selection Competition, which will select the top 1000 contestants from all major universe countries to participate in the Universe Finals.

In the second stage, the cosmic final battle, 1008 cosmic countries, with a total of more than one million stellar geniuses, will fight in the cosmic final battle to determine the top 1000 in the overall cosmic ranking.

The first stage is divided into "preliminary elimination" and "ring showdown".

In the preliminary elimination round, 100 worlds will be divided in the virtual universe, and each world will be allocated more than 82 billion participants. These 82 billion people will fight each other in the same world, killing others to earn points. The more kills, the more points you get!

Everyone has only one life. After the qualifiers are over, the final points ranking will be looked at. 1001 people will be selected from each world, and a total of 100 worlds will have people.

The person who ranks first in the world will directly get 100 places in the universe finals without having to compete in the ring. As for the remaining 900 people, they will compete in the ring for the last places.

"There are more than 10 billion participants from Qianwu Universe, and only people were selected in the preliminaries. This competition is extremely fierce."

Thor opened his eyes wide. Even though he had prepared himself mentally, he was still a little excited when he thought about competing with more than 800 billion stellar-level geniuses.

Luo Feng said: "In the entire Qianwu Star Region, the number of galaxies is in the billions. It is easy for each galaxy to have tens of thousands of stars. This number is not large."

Hong's expression was calm, and he smiled and said, "The more participants there are, the more valuable the final ranking will be."

Shen Mu said, "There is still a month until the start of the preliminaries. During this time, Brother Hong should not go to the life and death training again, so as not to delay the competition."

"Okay, I'll pay attention to it." Hong nodded slightly and steadily.

……

In the Black Dragon Mountain star field, within the vast holy land of the Kingdom of God.

A burly figure with black dragon scales all over his body and a black dragon horn on his head stood in mid-air. Beside him stood a group of powerful ninth-level realm masters.

In front of them, thousands of star-level elites trained by the Black Dragon Mountain royal family knelt respectfully on the ground.

"You are the most elite geniuses in my 'Black Dragon Mountain Holy Land'."

"As long as anyone among you can pass the initial preliminary selection and enter the ring battle! Then I will accept him as my personal disciple. If he can make it into the top 1,000 of the Universe Country, I will grant him the most prosperous galaxy as his territory!"

The grand voice was like thunder. The majestic Lord of Black Dragon Mountain looked down at the many star-level geniuses and said in a cold voice: "Now, go and get ready. Don't let me down."

"Yes, Lord God!"

……

A chaotic star field in the Qianwu Universe where bandits are rampant.

"A battle of geniuses? A gathering of stellar-level geniuses from all over the universe?"

On the blood-stained ground, a wild young man with messy hair, three meters tall and bare feet was stepping on the corpse of a cosmic-level strong man, with fighting spirit in his eyes.

Behind him, the bodies of pirates were scattered all over the place, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

"Very good, I, Tuman, deserve the first place in the entire universe!"

……

In a corner of the vast universe, on a primitive planet, a life-and-death battle has just ended.

The young man in white clothes and a blood-stained sword stepped on the corpses of hundreds of star-level masters and walked towards a strong man in a white robe and a bald head.

"I have nothing more to teach you. Go and participate in the Universe Genius Competition. Only in a top force like the Virtual Universe Company can you receive the best training and instruction."

A bald figure in a white robe looked at Bolan with a mixture of satisfaction and confusion. "After you become immortal, you can find a teacher."

The white robe disappeared into the distance, leaving only a voice echoing across the land.

“Teacher…” The young man in white, with a blood-red sword on his back, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but stopped abruptly.

He has never been good at speaking, so the only thing he can do is to live up to the teacher's expectations.

……

In a blink of an eye, the time came to December 2066, 5.

This day is the date when the preliminary elimination rounds of Qianwu Universe begin.

In the virtual universe, Qianwu Continent, in the vast starry sky, countless young people were kneeling on the ground.

They are the hundreds of millions of star-level geniuses cultivated in the star field directly under the Qianwu Universe.

At the forefront of them, including Shen Mu, were hundreds of star-level monsters from the Qianwu Secret Realm. Each of them was a genius who had crossed the threshold of the laws.

"You are the future elites and pillars of the Wuqianwu Universe."

"I hope that half of the 100,010 places belong to you!"

A deep voice that shook the heavens and the earth echoed in the starry sky.

In this starry sky, a towering figure whose face could not be seen clearly stood in the void, and the space around him was faintly distorted.

And in the distance in front of the giant, countless young people were kneeling respectfully, and their number was endless.

"Go, children." The deep voice made the entire starry sky tremble, and everyone's soul seemed to shudder.

"Yes, Lord!"

The next moment, the figures of countless stellar-level geniuses disappeared from the spot. Under the vast starry sky, only the towering figure of Lord Qianwu and Shen Mu kneeling in the starry sky remained.

"Child, get up."

The towering figure quickly shrank, and then suddenly appeared in front of Shen Mu, with a very gentle voice.

"is teacher."

After Shen Mu stood up, he still bowed slightly to the King of Qianwu.

"The teacher has noticed your efforts in the past few years."

"Go ahead. This Genius Competition will be the grand ceremony for you to become famous throughout the human race."

There was undisguised admiration in the eyes of King Qianwu as he looked at Shen Mu.

In terms of talent, Lord Qianwu has seen countless people with higher talents than Shen Mu over the long years.

There are even a few extremely monstrous individuals with extraordinary talent, who are evaluated by their tribe as being able to become the greatest of the universe as long as they do not die. Such talent is almost a miracle.

But in terms of character, Shen Mu really surprised King Qianwu.

You have to know that becoming a disciple of the Lord of Qianwu State, even if it is just a registered disciple, your identity will undergo tremendous changes.

Throughout the universe, tens of thousands of immortal gods have to respectfully address this little guy as “Your Highness”.

Overnight, one is favored by the gods and enjoys the awe and ultimate honor of countless people. This huge contrast and pleasure is most likely to make people depraved and addicted.

But Shen Mu never showed any pride or complacency from beginning to end.

During these years, this child always remained humble, always maintained awe of the universe and the strong, and moved forward step by step with the attitude of an apprentice.

The King of Qianwu saw all of this.

As one of the oldest venerables in the human race, Lord Qianwu knows very well that to become a truly powerful person, a strong talent is only the foundation, and in the end it all depends on one's character and perseverance.

Shen Mu may be less talented, but with such an excellent character, regardless of whether he completes his test or not, he is qualified to become the direct disciple of the Lord of Qianwu.

"Yes, I will never let you down."

Shen Mu's voice was calm and full of confidence.
