487: Chapter 487 Li Fan's Conjecture!

The reality was indeed so.

From the God's eye view afforded to the masses watching in the major venue halls, it was clearly visible.

Whether it was Bai Chenfeng, Di Yunfu, or later Qi Daotian, Liu Hongyan, and Yan Xiao, they were all fighting like mad!

Bai Chenfeng was indeed, just as Yun Yang had guessed, a Divine Illusionist, and not only that, he also cultivated the Great Dao of Wind!

With the boost from his Wind-attribute secret arts, Bai Chenfeng's speed could be said to be terrifyingly extreme; even his afterimages were almost impossible to see, and even if a Cosmic Cloud spaceship sped to its limit, it would be left far behind by him.

So, for Bai Chenfeng,

Exterminating every fierce beast on a star was simply too easy!

This was why Bai Chenfeng's points could increase so rapidly, creating a chasm-like gap with the Contestants behind him.

As for Di Yunfu, Qi Daotian, and the others trailing behind, the gap in their points wasn't actually very obvious; in fact, they were neck and neck, and any moment of laxity could lead to being overtaken.

Compared to Bai Chenfeng's style, which was as elegant and agile as the autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves, making people gasp in astonishment,

Their battle scenes could be described as every punch hitting flesh, satisfying and thrilling, possessing immense visual impact that made the ordinary masses across the entire universe cheer with delight!

And in reality, setting aside these top-tier prodigies,

The prodigies who were slightly weaker performed quite well too.

Although they probably couldn't catch up to the leaders for now, they hadn't fallen too far behind either.

Currently,

It could be seen,

Across all the venues in the major domains, the masses were utterly thrilled and excited by the 'performance' of this group of top geniuses in the universe.

"This Bai Chenfeng is truly strong! Damn strong!"

"Indeed, his points are miles ahead. Killing fierce beasts is as simple as eating and drinking for him. He's definitely going for first place!"

"First place is hard to say, after all, there is the Sacred Mountain Challenge. If someone manages to leave their name on the Sacred Mountain later, their points will surpass everyone else in one go. But with Bai Chenfeng's strength, he has a high probability of leaving his name on the Sacred Mountain too, so he really has a high chance of taking first!"

"Right? A Divine Illusionist paired with top-tier Great Dao of Wind talent—this is simply a point-harvesting machine!"

"I don't think so! The real deciding factor is still the Sacred Mountain Challenge. Those like Di Yunfu and Qi Daotian, who possess Six Strands of Law Power, have terrifying combat strength and could all potentially take first! As for the others, there shouldn't be much competition unless a dark horse appears!"

"Honestly, I'm really looking forward to a dark horse appearing. If it's just these five or six people fighting for the championship, while it will still be very exciting, it will ultimately lack some thrill!"

"A dark horse? That's probably difficult. No matter how dark a horse is, could it be darker than these few?"

"Actually, aside from these championship seedlings, many other prodigies are also quite strong. We should pay more attention to them!"

"That's right. The value of this grand event is extremely high. If you casually switch a perspective, the geniuses you see there all possess terrifying strength!"

... From their words, it was already very clear.

The masses were all amazed by the performance of Bai Chenfeng and the group of prodigies.

Moreover, this allowed the masses to quickly lock onto this small batch of championship seedlings.

The rumors about this small batch of championship seedlings before had now come true one by one.

Their strength was indeed terrifyingly immense!

On the other side.

In the outer perimeter of the star field, within the Great Wall of steel formed by endless Cosmic Clouds' spaceships.

The leaders from various major factions watched the performance of the geniuses and were all inwardly shocked.

Especially regarding Bai Chenfeng and the others.

The combat strength displayed by these geniuses who had comprehended Six Strands of Law Power was truly somewhat beyond their expectations.

"As expected of those nurtured by the Hidden Family. To possess such formidable strength, they must have invested quite a lot of resources."

"Indeed. If our Cosmic Cloud's internal nurturing system focused on cultivating a few like this, their combat strength would certainly not be inferior to theirs."

Inside the Cosmic Cloud spaceship, Tai Fang was leisurely sighing about the terrifying combat power of these geniuses with a few accompanying mentors.

The main reason they were so leisurely in their reflections was that they didn't feel much pressure.

Their expectation for the results of Li Fan and Han Luo was only for them to enter the top five hundred, perhaps the top three hundred.

Now that Li Fan and Han Luo were in a team of four, as long as no unexpected situations occurred,

The four of them could almost certainly meet expectations.

As for winning the championship, they didn't hold much hope at all.

Because even if Li Fan and the others managed to leave their names on the Sacred Mountain, they still wouldn't have a chance to win the championship.

The reason was simple: if Li Fan and the others could leave their names, why couldn't these few?

Breaking the record?

Similarly.

If Li Fan and the others could break it, why should they assume these few couldn't?

... Turning to Li Fan and the others.

The moment they discovered something was wrong with their point totals, the four of them immediately exchanged telepathic messages.

After confirming that everyone was in the same situation and it wasn't an issue on their end, the four then continued to slaughter fierce beasts.

"Making the points so low is equivalent to naturally filtering out the weaker Contestants. This design is quite interesting!"

Li Fan muttered to himself while casually using his Mental Energy to instantly kill fierce beasts.

In fact, when he first saw the rules, Li Fan had noticed a bug in the rules.

That is, because there was a restriction near the Sacred Mountain, anyone who went near it would be reduced to Domain Lord First Order. This was an advantageous matter for geniuses at the Universe Level.

Even if their actual strength wasn't enough, they could still rely on points to continuously challenge the Sacred Mountain and fight for a chance to leave their name, thereby securing a high ranking.

For people like Bai Chenfeng and Qi Daotian, whose realms were high and talents heaven-defying, perhaps they didn't care much about this.

But for those whose realms were only Domain Lord First Order or Domain Lord Second Order and whose talents weren't as heaven-defying, it was somewhat unfair!

Their clans spent so much effort helping them break through to the Domain Lord level, only for them to end up almost on the same starting line as those at the Universe Level?!

Now,

The designers increased the difficulty of obtaining points.

This undoubtedly served to balance this bug to a certain extent.

Although it might still not be perfectly fair, it was considered the best possible outcome.

"These fierce beasts only give so few points individually. This first-place Bai Chenfeng actually managed to accumulate over 130,000 points in such a short time, and now, in just a moment, he's approaching 300,000."

"Even if he is a Divine Illusionist, it shouldn't be possible to increase them that fast, right? What method did he use to achieve this?"

Li Fan recalled Bai Chenfeng, who was currently in first place.

He had heard about Bai Chenfeng from the mouths of Golden Flash Bears and others before, but he only knew the general information and not the specifics.

Judging by the points provided by these fierce beasts, even if Bai Chenfeng was also a Divine Illusionist like Li Fan, his killing efficiency shouldn't possibly be that fast, right?

"Could it be that he isn't a Divine Illusionist, but rather has a shortcut in the method of killing fierce beasts that I haven't thought of?"

Li Fan frowned deeply, the more he thought, the more something felt off.

He believed that his combat strength as a Divine Illusionist was definitely not weaker than Bai Chenfeng's.

But compared to Bai Chenfeng, his point growth speed was completely incomparable.

For a moment,

Li Fan fell into deep thought.

And after thinking for a short while,

A conjecture popped into Li Fan's mind!
