360: Top ten people!

In the seven Trial Towers, over a million geniuses from the 1008 Universe Country were able to pass the first two levels smoothly.

However, the turning point was the third Trial Tower.

This was a watershed moment.

From the first level of the third Trial Tower, these geniuses began to suffer huge losses.

Almost every breath, many geniuses were eliminated.

And as the number of geniuses entering the third Trial Tower increased, the number eliminated also rose linearly.

Therefore, the failed geniuses also referred to this third Trial Tower as the 'Tower of Death'.

...Swish! Swish! Swish! In the Central Square, figures were continuously teleported out of the Trial Tower.

"Karas, you were eliminated too?"

"Look, didn't you come out too?"

In the square, familiar geniuses began to chat with each other—

"Which level were you eliminated on?"

"The fourth level of the third Trial Tower."

"I was on the fifth level. There was nothing I could do; those hundred Automaton Race puppets were too terrifying. When they surrounded me, I couldn't dodge them."

"Yes, that's why it's called a Trial Tower, isn't it?"

Two geniuses from the Qianwu Universe Country were chatting.

With another 'swish', KhaZix, dressed in blue, was teleported out.

"I didn't expect the first level of the fourth Trial Tower to be stronger than the highest level of the third Trial Tower. It's truly unimaginable how anyone could pass such a terrifying trial."

As the ninth-ranked genius among those who advanced from the Qianwu Universe Country, KhaZix, who excelled in speed and attack frequency, had always possessed terrifying strength.

"Haha, KhaZix, you were eliminated too!"

"Yeah, I thought you could last longer!"

Two teasing voices rang out. KhaZix looked in their direction, merely glaring at the two young geniuses without saying much.

"I wonder what my rank will be. I hope I can make it into the top 7,300!" Thinking this, KhaZix ran a hand through his slightly curly blue hair, then sat cross-legged in the square and began to observe the leaderboard.

"Currently ranked 9,800th, which is still good!"

KhaZix first saw his own ranking, then his gaze froze as he moved it.

Because he clearly saw Chen Fan's name prominently displayed as the number one on the list.

Following Chen Fan's name was a long string of zeros for his points.

Even the point difference between Bolan, who was ranked second, and Chen Fan was enormous.

What was even more shocking was that Chen Fan's current displayed location was the third level of the seventh Trial Tower.

One must know that he, as a top ten genius from a Universe Country, barely made it into the top ten thousand and failed in the fourth Trial Tower.

But this Chen Fan, however, advanced rapidly, directly entering the seventh Trial Tower.

Comparing oneself to others truly makes one furious!

Thinking of this, KhaZix simply closed his eyes and calmed his mind, beginning to integrate the insights and gains from the recent intense battle.

Soon, as more and more geniuses were eliminated, the Central Square became increasingly crowded.

Consequently, more and more geniuses noticed Chen Fan, who was ranked first and was currently on the third level of the seventh Trial Tower... Meanwhile, in another location, Chen Fan was fighting arduously in the seventh Trial Tower.

Regardless of the uproar he caused in the outside world, he remained unmoving like a mountain, steadily slaying these Tuoluo Race warriors one by one.

The rampant saber light almost filled the entire space of the third level. After one arduous battle after another, these saber gleams seemed to become even sharper.

With the continuous support of Origin Power, Chen Fan released his Absolute Domain to its strongest state.

The Law of the Origin of Gold, the Law of the Origin of Water, the Law of the Origin of Fire, along with the Law of the Origin of Time and wisps of the Law of the Origin of Space—these five Origin Laws simultaneously merged into Chen Fan's domain.

The already magnificent Absolute Domain surged again, displaying terrifying power that could even threaten World Lords.

Chen Fan fought with increasing ferocity, his movement technique becoming more refined in his battles against the speed-proficient Tuoluo Race warriors.

In fact, as early as the Slaughter Arena trials of these past years, Chen Fan's Heavenly Demon Race Clone had already honed his movement technique to perfection.

And now, his movement technique had broken through again, reaching a new realm!

The terrifying domain, covering tens of miles across the entire third level, constantly affected the metal lives within, drastically reducing their mobility and combat power.

At this moment, Chen Fan could be described as a terrifying enemy possessing unparalleled destructive power.

Without exaggeration,

if a mid-level World Lord were to encounter Chen Fan in reality, it would almost certainly be a situation of certain death.

Against a peak genius possessing five Origin Laws, an ordinary World Lord was no longer a match for Chen Fan.

Their fate would not be much different from that of the Tuoluo Race warriors Chen Fan harvested.

Thump!

As the last metal life fell, never to rise again.

All 1,000 'Tuoluo Race warriors' on the third level of the final Trial Tower were annihilated by Chen Fan.

Although these metal lives, like Automaton Race puppets, were completely unafraid of mental attacks.

However, every move and strike of Chen Fan's was a genuine, close-quarters combat.

If not for the fact that metal lives lacked flesh and blood, perhaps the third level of this Trial Tower would now be stained with blood, transformed into a human purgatory.

"As expected of the guardians of the seventh level, they are much stronger than those on the previous levels."

At the center of the third level, Chen Fan stood with his saber.

In this battle, he fought back and forth dozens of times before finally slaying these thousand special metal lives.

"Next, it's a thousand 'Flying Hounds', strange cosmic beasts, on the fourth level!" A fleeting, eerie glint flickered in Chen Fan's eyes.

Passing the first three levels of the seventh Trial Tower almost forced him to reveal all his trump cards, and even then, he barely managed to pass.

Therefore, in the battle on the fourth level, Chen Fan would likely employ similar tactics.

However, this time, his confidence was low.

"Consider it a form of training. My comprehension of the 'Time Restriction' isn't very deep yet, so I can use these Flying Hounds to practice."

Currently, the secret technique collection 'Time Restriction' left by Heavenly Azure Dragon Lord had become one of Chen Fan's ultimate trump cards.

Whether in major battles or ordinary times, Chen Fan would choose to comprehend the secret techniques within it, constantly improving himself... In the spectator space, the only King-level Immortal pointed at Chen Fan's live broadcast screen and softly said, "I didn't expect this kid to have such deep comprehension of the 'Time-Space Restriction'. It's truly rare."

As he spoke, a hint of wistfulness appeared on the face of this King-level Undying being.

"What... Chen Fan is using the 'Time Restriction'? This is one of the closest to peak secret technique collections in the entire human race of the universe, even comparable to the 'Space-Time Notes'. I never thought this kid would be so lucky to obtain such a secret manual!"

"Of course, the 'Space-Time Notes' focuses on both space and time, while the 'Time Restriction' specializes in the Law of the Origin of Time, with only a slight touch of the Law of the Origin of Space!"

"..."

The Undying beings from various Universe Countries began to discuss again.

It was as lively as a morning market.

After all, secret technique collections like the 'Time Restriction' were also the secret techniques that these Undying beings pursued.

However, the 'Time Restriction' was generally only bestowed upon powerful beings at the Champion-level and above.

Ordinary Undying beings simply did not have the qualifications to access it.

Now, an Astral Rank genius had actually obtained such a precious secret technique.

Some Undying beings were already beating their chests and stomping their feet, secretly lamenting why they weren't the ones to obtain such a secret technique.

At the same time, almost half of the Undying beings were already firmly convinced that Chen Fan would decisively surpass Bolan.

A genius who could obtain and cultivate the 'Time Restriction' secret technique well would naturally be several times stronger than Bolan, who practiced 'Myriad Threads Flow'... Days passed one by one.

One day, three days, ten days... two months quickly went by.

The number of people in the Central Square had already exceeded several million.

Within these thirty days, over a million geniuses were eliminated.

Now, in the entire Trial Tower, only the last ten warriors were still striving, and they were—

"'God of Slaughter' Chen Fan, 'War God Ma Liang', 'Gun Devil Wang Teng', 'Madman Luo Feng', 'Savage Rong Jun', 'God of Martial Arts Hong', all from the Qianwu Universe Country!"

"'God of Death Bolan' from the Noah Universe Country!"

"** from the ** Universe Country, and the remaining two people..."

Of the ten most peak geniuses, the Qianwu Universe Country alone accounted for more than half.

Such a proud achievement was unprecedented.

Therefore, the status of the Qianwu Universe Country in the entire human race was also pushed very, very high... At this moment, on the Qianwu Continent in the Virtual Universe, many powerful human beings had successively arrived.

Their purpose in coming was only one—

Firstly, to befriend Lord Qianwu and strengthen their relationship with him.

Secondly, it was to urge this universe's biggest debtor to repay his debts sooner.

Although somewhat reluctant, Lord Qianwu was incredibly smooth in his hospitality, making people feel very comfortable!

After sending off his old and new friends, the Universe Exalts, Lord Qianwu remained alone in his palace, laughing heartily.

"Hahaha, truly good children of my Qianwu Country!"

"This time, this Lord will surely reward you heavily!"

An uncontrollable smile, which had lasted for dozens of days, showed on Lord Qianwu's blurred face.

Ever since Chen Fan reached the top, he had not stopped.

"With the emergence of these geniuses, next time on Original Star, I must borrow seven or eight supreme treasures and go on an adventure to repay my debts as soon as possible!"

"If one doesn't bear a heavy burden, who would use geniuses to borrow treasures?"

"Hmm, it's settled then!"

As a powerful Universe Exalt, Lord Qianwu's little scheme was clanging loudly... As the top ten were announced by the Virtual Universe Corporation, the entire Black Dragon Mountain Empire, and even the Qianwu Universe Country, erupted in excitement.

In every starfield, overwhelming cheers rang out—

"Chen Fan, first!"

"Chen Fan, first!"

"Chen Fan, first!"

"Ma Liang, second!"

...From this moment on, Chen Fan, Ma Liang, Hong, Wang Teng, and the other five became the national idols of the entire Qianwu Universe Country.

All posters and photos featuring these five people were completely sold out.

This was true in both the Virtual Universe and the real world!

...The frenzy outside intensified, yet within the Trial Tower in the Virtual Universe, fierce battles were still ongoing.

Without any surprises, Bolan failed on the first level of the seventh Trial Tower.

Ma Liang followed closely, failing on the second level.

Wang Teng, Luo Feng, and Hong also met the same fate.

As for the savage Rong Jun, he struggled for a while on the highest level of the sixth Trial Tower before failing and leaving.

The remaining individuals, apart from a few from the Qianwu Universe Country, all other geniuses were eliminated before the seventh Trial Tower.

Of these ten peak geniuses, only Chen Fan remained.

At this moment, he had advanced from the fourth level to the fifth level!
