Chapter 5136 Fiery Competition
The news of the event held by the merchant quickly spread among the monks. Because of its extremely high challenge difficulty and extremely generous bounty, it gained considerable attention.
Nowadays, there are many elites in the imperial city, and everyone wants to take this opportunity to become famous and become a well-known figure.
Before the whole family competition begins, this ultra-difficult shopping mall competition is the best way to prove your strength.
Those monks who wanted to use business activities to prove their strength gathered at an extremely fast speed.
There are not only participating monks, but also academic elites, as well as strong men from different fields.
The number of spectators surrounding the ring has reached close to one million in a short period of time.
Compared to the hundreds of millions of people in the city, one million viewers seems nothing to mention.
But among these audiences, the number of monks accounts for 80%, and there are countless people with distinguished status.
There were even members of the royal family who came over to join in the fun and were now riding on an invisible viewing platform, floating in the sky above the business district.
The store owner was notified that he must immediately increase the number of contestants to meet the urgent needs of the monks.
It is said that this order was issued by the royal family personally.
Although the incident happened suddenly, as the largest store in the Imperial City Commercial District, its own background is quite extraordinary.
This seemingly difficult order can be solved in a very short time.
The audience soon saw circular floating platforms appearing in the air around the ring.
The number is nearly 10,000, which looks very spectacular.
Soon another figure rushed forward one after another, putting a trace of spiritual power into the crystal ball.
In a short period of time, tens of thousands of monks competed on the same stage, and images appeared in the sky one after another.
These clear images make it easy to see the test scene.
More monks participated, making the competition more cruel and fierce. As the prompts sounded and the lights went out, monks were constantly being eliminated.
But in the blink of an eye, new people will replace them, trying to prove themselves in front of the public.
For those losers, not many people pay attention to them at all. In the eyes of the audience, they are just figures coming and going in a hurry.
Those who performed well were closely watched by the audience, and discussions related to them were endless.
No matter what time it is, the successful ones get the most attention.
In order to facilitate viewing, the merchant has also set up a list, which displays the data of the contestants.
Only those ranked within 1,000 are eligible to be on the list.
The ranking is determined based on the game time and exploration progress. After a certain period of time, you will also receive a bonus reward on the score.
With this operation, the values will look better, but in fact it will not have much impact on the ranking.
But if you are eliminated, all your accumulation will be wiped out instantly.
Among the top 100 monks, there is Tang Zhen's name, who is slowly rising up.
It is normal for this situation to happen. After all, he is a latecomer and many masters have participated in the competition before.
Until now, we have still not been eliminated.
The monks who participated later also had some masters whose strength exceeded the body controlled by Tang Zhen.
With strong strength and certain opportunities, ranking in the top 100 is quite normal.
As more and more powerful people participate in this competition, the competition for the top 100 will be extremely fierce.
But at the same time, the difficulty of the competition will also increase exponentially. If you want to persist until the final pass, the difficulty is indeed terrifyingly high.
At this moment, Tang Zhen was facing the changing and moving passages, as well as various energy attacks flying in from time to time.
Fireballs and ice cones, vines and poisonous snakes may all come at you at any moment.
Not only do you have to avoid attacks, but you also have to deal with the changing terrain. If you are not careful, you may fall into a trap.
The trap here is not a big pit, but a hot lava and a bottomless abyss. If you cannot catch the protruding objects in time during the fall, the final result will be to be eliminated.
On the rugged rocks like floating islands, figures kept jumping, jumping from one to another.
Both speed and time must be accurately grasped, otherwise failure may occur. The screams that come from time to time are the best proof that challengers continue to fail here.
Tang Zhen looked calm, and the body transformed by his mental power was completely the true manifestation of his own physique.
During the period of retreat, Tang Zhen deliberately swallowed a large number of body training pills just to improve his physical fitness.
According to his understanding, a powerful physical body is a container that can carry more spiritual power.
The Star Demon Clan’s practice philosophy is not to pay attention to physical practice, believing that a too strong physical body will affect spiritual power.
Controlling a powerful physical body will inevitably consume mental power. The stronger the physical body, the more so.
This is indeed the case.
When spiritual cultivation reaches a certain level, it is necessary to put aside the physical body, because they are incompatible with each other and even become a burden and restriction for the monks.
Most high-level monks are energy bodies and do not have the disadvantages of flesh and blood creatures.
But at the same time, there are more things that can harm oneself, and there are more awe and taboos than ordinary creatures.
Tang Zhen's body is only temporarily borrowed and will exit at the appropriate time.
Therefore, he didn’t have much scruples when it came to body training, but instead tried to improve himself as much as possible.
Not to mention that in his hands, he has the top-notch cultivation method of soul and body, which can perfectly solve this super difficult problem in the cultivation world.
But now Tang Zhen will not use it easily to avoid accidents, which will eventually let the Star Demon Clan take advantage.
The skills that Tang Zhen practiced came from the cornerstone platform, so there is no need to say how precious they are.
If the star demon clan obtains it and makes up for its own shortcomings, it will inevitably become more fierce and greedy.
If this is true, Tang Zhen is aiding the evil deeds and harming more living beings in the world.
The strong physical strength allows him to be more calm and comfortable when facing this level.
If you look closely at his posture, he looks like a flying bird or ape, leaping and climbing on one boulder after another.
There were many times when we were only a few centimeters away from missing and falling, but the danger was saved in the blink of an eye.
Tang Zhen did this on purpose, not wanting to show too much strength to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
After all, the entire competition will be broadcast live, and he doesn’t want anyone to see the clues.
But he didn’t know that his behavior attracted more attention, and countless viewers were frightened by him.
Compared with other contestants, Tang Zhen's clearance process is undoubtedly more exciting and interesting.
This difficult level has caused many monks to fail, and the top 100 list has also begun a major update.
Tang Zhen finally firmly entered the top ten at this moment.
At this time, whether he wanted to or not, he received more attention, and some people began to investigate his identity information.
Tang Zhen’s wonderful performance made many people think.
Tang Zhen, who is participating in the competition, knows nothing about this and is currently looking at the desert ahead.
At this moment, a desert appeared in front of him, with no end in sight.
The next thing to do is to cross the scorching desert and reach the other end.
What seems to be a simple thing is actually quite painful. You have to endure thirst, high temperature, and various dangers in the desert.
The conditions encountered in the Soul Space are the same as those in the real world, and are even more severe and dangerous.
For the Star Demon Clan monks who have always been pampered and rarely experienced dangerous environments, the journey to the desert must be a painful journey.
At this time, there were many monks wandering on the edge of the desert, and the rolling yellow sand kept them away.
There were also some participating monks who drank heavily from the spring water on the edge of the desert. After filling their stomachs, they set off on the road.
The same is true for Tang Zhen. Without a container, he can only carry water in this way.
Following the direction of the vague induction, Tang Zhen also stepped into the desert, and soon became a solitary figure between heaven and earth.
