Chapter 779 Opponent

"Um?"

Yan Sheng, Wumeng, Zi Zaitian and others were slightly startled.

"coming?"

Emperor Shenwu did not show off, and said bluntly: "The Light of Origin asked the White Emperor of the Xinhuo Temple to participate in the Ten Thousand Races Overlord Tournament, but what is the Ten Thousand Races Overlord Tournament? It is related to the life and death of the fate of our human race in the next era. In the first ten thousand years of each era, suitable candidates will be selected and trained. No matter how slow the subsequent candidates are, they will be selected within a thousand years before the start of the competition. Like everyone in the field, many people have prepared for this battle for several years. It’s been ten thousand years.”

 His words resonated with many people.

 Some monarchs even frowned.

 “Nonsense.”

Luo Wuji, who has been preparing for the Ten Thousand Races Competition for 40,000 years, said directly: "Li Ming is indeed the most evil being in the past hundreds of years. I do not deny his talent, just as Zi Zaitian said. In that case, if we give him tens of thousands of years, he may not be able to compete with us in the Competition of All Races, but now... he is still too young, and the Competition of Prodigies of All Races is his stage."

 These words made several people in the audience nod their heads.

 It’s Emperor…

 Still playing chess with myself.

 Because, in his mind, from beginning to end, he did not regard anyone on the field as an opponent.

 With no opponents, there will naturally be no distractions.

 And this strategic determination…

Emperor Shenwu saw it and appreciated it even more.

  It is truly worthy of being their ace in the race for supremacy of all races in this era.

A person who can be said to be an invincible monarch.

While admiring him, he continued to respond: "In the beginning, I did not allow such nonsense. The White Emperor Ji Shun also understood that this matter was a bit difficult. Considering that the Ten Thousand Races Talent Competition cannot harm After some careful consideration, Ji Shun and I set a condition for him. There will be thirteen games of the Ten Thousand Races Overlord Competition. To ensure nothing goes wrong, he must be at least among the top ten among you before he can get the chance to participate in the Ten Thousand Races Overlord Competition. Chance."

"top ten?"

 As soon as these words came out, Zi Zaitian's expression froze.

 Everyone’s eyes also fell on him, Luo Wuji, and Wumeng who was in front of him.

 The cultivation level of the three of them is about the same.

 If a fight breaks out, it may take decades or hundreds of years to determine the winner.

 And this kind of victory or defeat, a little difference may lead to a reversal of the outcome.

 In fact, they are not the only ones, almost everyone else is the same.

  Among the dozens of contestants in the Ten Thousand Races Overlord Competition, Di'a is the only one standing in the way and can be called the invincible monarch.

Although Yueshu and Xuan Chengming were inferior to him, they followed closely behind him. Further down, there were Yan Sheng and five others.

 Then there are Wumeng, Zizaitian, Luo Wuji and others.

 Therefore, if Li Mi wants to break into the top ten, she must at least be at the same level as the three of them.

 “If I remember correctly…”

Wumeng was under everyone's gaze for a long time before he said: "Li Ma, you have been practicing for less than three hundred years? The highest step on the highest ladder has only reached eighty steps?"

“It is indeed less than three hundred years.”

 Emperor Shenwu nodded.

“Within less than three hundred years, he has the strength of the 80th level of the Supreme Ladder. He wants to participate in the Contest of All Races. And when you made a request that he must enter the top ten, he agreed?”

Zi Zaitian stood up straight, took a step forward, and said in a deep voice: "What does he think the Ten Thousand Clans Competition is? Playing house? Or does he think that all of us are the ordinary Sun Yao that he defeated before... who don't even have the inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven?" , Zhou Guang!?"

“You have to break into the top ten...that means you have to beat us.”

Luo Wuji also sneered and said: "Ha... I really want to know who gave him the courage to say such a thing!"

Even Xuan Chengming, who originally had things that had nothing to do with him, couldn't help but smile and shook his head: "The young people in the Humanity Temple now... each one is really crazier than the last."

He was also from the Humanity Temple. He remembered that the Humanity Temple was quite harmonious at that time.

“Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, we can understand.”

Zi Zaitian had already regained his composure at this time: "It's a pity that he chose the wrong target for his recklessness."

 “Very good, very energetic.”

Emperor Shenwu looked at everyone and nodded slightly: "I had the same idea as you at the beginning."

As soon as these words came out, the person who reacted quickly was slightly startled, and he was keenly aware of something.

 At the beginning?

what about now?

"But now...you'd better put away your pride as disciples, descendants of the Emperor of Heaven, and direct descendants of the Supreme Emperor."

Emperor Shenwu said calmly: "Not long ago, the Light of Origin once again entered the Supreme Staircase. This time, he was at the eighty-fifth level of the Supreme Staircase."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people at the front, including Wumeng, Zizaitian, Luo Wuji, and the people behind them all changed at the same time. “Eighty-fifth level!?”

"No, although we are conducting special training in the Divine Court of Stars, we are not completely ignorant of information from the outside world. I remember the first time I heard this person's name, was it because of the Heavenly Prison World? The second time When I heard his name, he had only reached the 80th step of the highest ladder. That was decades ago, right? Decades? Eightyth step, to the 85th step?"

 Each monarch was moved one after another.

Even the top two geniuses, Xuan Chengming and Yueshu, who were two levels higher than the others, raised their heads slightly.

The pride of being the "supreme genius" makes them basically look down on other people at the same stage, and they will not spend energy to understand some people who are not qualified to compare with them.

 Their goal has always been one—Diah.

 But now…

According to Emperor Shenwu, there was actually a latecomer who quickly came from behind and had the potential to rival them?

 There is no reason why they should not pay attention to this.

"Don't forget, Ms. Li, you have only been practicing for more than two hundred years. In your life span of tens of thousands of years, you may study a secret skill and learn a combat skill in just a few decades. But for you, For him, these decades are equivalent to one-tenth of his life."

Emperor Shenwu looked at the people who were gradually paying more attention, and his tone became more serious: "It takes one-tenth of the life span to complete the leap from the eighty-fifth step to the eighty-fifth step of the highest ladder... Is it unbelievable?"

 “One-tenth of the scale of life…”

As soon as these words came out, Wumeng, Zi Zaitian, Luo Wuji, and all the contestants including Xuan Chengming, Yueshu and others calmed down.

 What is one tenth of their life scale?

 Short ones can also last for thousands of years!

 The elders are thousands of years old!

In such a long time, can they achieve the level of Li Mu? ?

"interesting."

 At this time, Di'a, who had been playing chess with him alone, suddenly said something.

And someone like him is destined to shine in the world, dominate the world, and become a well-deserved supreme genius of this century. Any words and deeds he does can easily attract everyone's attention.

This opening, even if it was just four simple words, attracted everyone's attention to him.

“I haven’t seen such an interesting so-called ‘genius’ in a long time.”

Di'a picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Wumeng, Zi Zaitian, Luo Wuji, the three of you, let's see who will fight with him to see if he is really worthy of his reputation as a genius."

 Although the dozens of contestants in the field have equal status,...

Di'a spoke in an almost commanding tone, but most people in the room thought it was normal.

Even Wumeng, Zi Zaitian and Luo Wuji nodded slightly.

"Since he wants to break into the top ten...and I happen to be ranked tenth in our internal rankings, let me meet this light of origin for a while."

Zi Zaitian glanced at Wumeng and Luo Wuji: "I also want to know whether his strength can surprise me as much as the rumors about him."

Wumeng and Luo Wuji nodded, but did not fight with him.

The three of them are evenly matched, no matter who takes the initiative to teach Li Mu a lesson.

Emperor Shenwu listened to the discussion of several people, including Emperor Lian, who rarely participated in this large group discussion, and smiled with satisfaction on his face.

 He did not think that Li Ma could defeat Zizaitian.

Among this group of people, although the truly supreme geniuses like Di'a practiced independently, Zizaitian, Luo Wuji and others were carefully taught by him and other heavenly emperors. Each of them has been practicing for many years. They have accumulated rich experience and possess practical capabilities that far exceed their current level.

but…

 The training and rapid growth in strength over the years have made some of them develop a sense of arrogance.

Perhaps they have indeed reached the point of being scornful among the young people of this era of the human race, but...

This time they faced off against a foreign race.

 Especially the other eight supreme races.

 In this case, it is indeed the best choice to introduce a less powerful but extremely talented competitor to stimulate them.

 At least let them know that their talents are not so strong that they can ignore others. The reason why others cannot compete with you is simply because the timing is wrong.

“The catfish effect.”

 Emperor Shenwu smiled slightly.

At this time, he seemed to sense something. He consciously checked a token on his body, and then turned to everyone: "Okay, we have arrived. Zi Zaitian, adjust your state. Li Ma has also passed the eighty-fifth step of the supreme ladder." People of this level should not be underestimated."

As he spoke, he smiled: "He has only been practicing for more than two hundred years. If you lose to such an opponent..."

 “I won’t lose.”

Zi Zaitian said calmly: "It is one thing to enter the highest ladder, but it is another thing to compete in the competition of all races. There is no power to return to ruins in the highest ladder. As long as the realm is high enough, cultivators can squander their power as much as they want. , but the battle location of the Ten Thousand Races Competition is on the alien battlefield, that is, the star realm, where the power of returning to ruins is everywhere."

He spoke with absolute confidence: "Whether it's a head-on confrontation or using the power of Guixu, I have a hundred ways to kill a monarch who is at the 85th level of the highest ladder."

 “Okay, I’ll wait to see how you perform.”
