Ten thousand blood-haired mammoths that trampled and charged were easily slaughtered.
Under the astonished gazes of the immortal god leaders and the pinnacle beings secretly watching the event.
On the first level of the seventh trial tower, ten thousand blood-haired mammoths, whose strength was comparable to the top 100 contestants in the genius battle, were all wiped out!
……
As time passed, Lin Hao's one trick proved effective, and when the final score settled at 77.77777 billion, the entire arena fell silent.
"Is this even human?"
The few geniuses who had been eliminated looked at the screen and leaderboard in the square with great regret.
Swish!
Lin Hao was teleported out of the Trial Tower and arrived at the square.
Ignoring the piercing gazes around him, he quickly located Janet's trial scene—
Phew, thankfully, she hasn't been eliminated by the first trial tower yet and is currently struggling on the third floor.
'Well, it's not against the rules anyway. At worst, if I don't do it, it won't be considered an overt violation!'
Lin Hao pondered for a moment, and then made the decision to test the bottom line of the human race's higher-ups!
[Space Management Master], activated!
Lin Hao's voice disappeared into the square under the watchful eyes of countless people around him.
……
"Thirteen! What's your junior brother up to?!"
"Wait... how could he teleport into someone else's trial tower? How did he do that? Isn't that cheating?!"
"But he didn't move after he went in. What does that mean? A VIP spectator seat up close? Which senior executive in the company arranged that for him?"
"This little girl seems to be the one he sent to first place in the Sixth World Region back then. By the way, did he report it to the Venerable One? Does this count as cheating?"
"Something's strange! This girl was just playing it safe until the third level of the first trial tower, focusing on defense. Now she's launching a full-scale attack and has stopped defending."
"Huh, he's still not dead? His skull was blown off, his brains are splattered out, and he's still not declared dead?!"
"The Law of Water?! This little girl survived such severe injuries, and all ten thousand blood-haired mammoths on the first level were instantly wiped out! Isn't this the same method Lin Hao just used?"
In the scene, Janet, who had just been seen as clumsy in both swordsmanship and movement by the immortals.
After Lin Hao teleported in, he abandoned his previous timid fighting style and began to recklessly attack without regard for defense.
After barely managing to hold out for a few rounds against the Tuoluo warriors and killing dozens of them, he was left severely wounded and on the verge of death.
However, he was not judged dead. Instead, he suddenly seemed to have a burst of power and easily displayed the heroic posture that Lin Hao had shown when he broke through the tower.
The light drizzle inside the tower easily annihilated ten thousand stellar-level ninth-tier blood-haired mammoths.
"Never mind whether Lin Hao cheated or not, I need to know everything about this girl immediately. With this kind of strength, she's at least a top 20 prospect! Why have I never heard of her before?"
"Look! The little girl's fatal head wound has healed! How did a stellar-level being do that? She's acting like nothing happened!"
After Janet was on the verge of death, she unleashed her divine power to annihilate 10,000 blood-haired mammoths, while pale blue water ripples appeared around her body, and her wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"I thought it was bad enough that this year's Genius Battle had a monster like Lin Hao who gained recognition from the Origin Law at the Stellar Level and could teleport, but how come the little girl who was so inconspicuous following him before is also such a monster?!"
All 1008 powerful immortals sat around the bottom of that screen, watching Janet's live stream.
"Forehead……"
The giant in the scale armor robe looked embarrassed, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
Their Qianwu Universe Kingdom has consistently performed poorly in past genius competitions, and hasn't achieved a good result in millions of years.
Originally, it was hoped that Lin Hao could redeem himself and make a name for himself this time, and now he has truly made a name for himself...
Whether this process was even more shameful is hard to say. In fact, there was no need to report the relevant situation. The Nine Swords Venerable and the Qianwu Kingdom Lord were definitely watching Lin Hao's live broadcast.
He had a lot to say, but all the words were stuck in his throat, and he didn't know where to begin.
He sat in the large chair, his fingers tapping unconsciously on the armrest, looking at the screen not far in front of him, which showed Janet's trial live.
……
From the third to the sixth level, the scene that these immortal beings had just witnessed was being repeated over and over again.
Janet A went up → Janet was terrible at picking her toes → Janet was seriously injured and on the verge of death → Janet displayed great power → Janet recovered from her injuries → Janet was terrible at picking her toes.
The immortal beings who witnessed this scene seemed to be deep in thought.
With a whoosh, Lin Hao and Janet appeared on the seventh floor.
It was still that enormous Zerg mother hive.
Janet rushed forward as always, but she was already on the verge of death as soon as she entered the gas field.
Then, using the temporarily loaded understanding of the laws, he activated the Divine Descent mode and went on a killing spree, crushing all the Zerg warriors released by the Zerg Queen.
Just as she broke through the Zerg hive and was about to kill the Zerg Queen, the 'Queen' still flew out on her own initiative, ignoring Janet, and flew straight towards Lin Hao in the distance.
Janet was momentarily stunned, not quite understanding what was happening.
Lin Hao's lips twitched as he watched the Zerg Queen getting closer and closer. He had no choice but to use a random teleportation stone to teleport to Janet's side.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and kill her..."
"Oh, alright."
Janet then quickly stepped forward and killed the Zerg Queen who was in heat.
Chapter 72: Venerables Clash, Chaos Takes the Spotlight!
"Damn it, Janet is so lucky! Why isn't Lin Hao in the same world region as me!"
Watching Lin Hao's score reach a perfect score while Janet's score skyrocketed, Zhao Ruo, who was observing the match, said resentfully.
At this moment, it would be impossible for any of the older sisters not to feel envious.
Jiang Fang and Yao Rao looked at each other, then shook their heads with wry smiles.
Apart from Janet, everyone else, including Brolin, was eliminated early in the qualifiers.
They didn't think much of it at the time, assuming that Lin Hao was just joking around and helping her get into the main competition to watch the game.
Who knew he could still control the trial tower? Everyone was so envious their grapes turned purple.
……
Virtual universe, central square.
"Something's not right, something's very wrong. If this girl really has such strength, why does she make herself look so pathetic at the beginning of each level, inflicting fatal wounds that would kill everyone else before she starts to unleash her power?"
"And have you noticed that this little girl's process of breaking through the tower is practically a clone of Lin Hao, replicating the entire process... I just don't believe that geniuses, who are rare even in tens of millions of epochs throughout the entire universe, would suddenly appear one after another! And the fact that he and this little girl can trigger this talent of sharing combat insights and skills is very likely because the other party was in a near-death state! And Lin Hao's Water Origin Law can perfectly maintain the other party's true immortality!"
After all, they were immortal beings, and they quickly approached the truth based solely on observation and speculation!
"So, Lin Hao not only gained the recognition of the Water Source, but also comprehended the Water Source Law long ago?"
One of them happened to be an immortal being who had achieved immortality through the fundamental law of water. He was utterly speechless. "After all, I can't even keep someone alive from such severe injuries and allow them to recover so quickly..."
"So, if he wanted to, he could progress step by step from the universe level, to the domain lord, to the world lord, and then directly break through to immortality anytime, anywhere?"
"I don't know what the Venerable One is thinking. He hasn't stopped Janet's match yet, so he's allowing her to play like this? Luckily, the battle in the Trial Tower wasn't broadcast to the public... otherwise, people who don't understand the truth might think that our Virtual Universe Company is protecting him from cheating!"
There are many differing opinions on this topic, leading to much debate.
The affirmative side believes that Lin Hao's ability to break through the rules of the Virtual Universe Company and enter the trial space of other people is also a kind of strength!
Moreover, he himself did not take action, but he was able to use his mysterious talent to allow his companions to share his understanding of the laws and combat skills.
The opposing side argued that regardless of the circumstances, Lin Hao's influence on the match result was undeniable, and that he was defying the rules. No matter how talented he was, he should be banned!
"Stop arguing, the Venerable One just issued a notice..."
The Scaled Giant Thirteen spoke up, "The virtual universe has determined that Lin Hao's actions did not constitute cheating, but due to the potential impact, Janet's results will not be publicized..."
Let's rewind five minutes.
Virtual universe, a meeting room in Building 0825 next to the central square.
The purple-scaled man, 'Nine Swords Venerable,' and the 'Qianwu Kingdom Lord' dressed in a star-studded battle robe casually watched Janet's heroic display of 'Myriad Threads Flow' on the live stream.
They were already shocked, but they were nonchalant because they had reported Lin Hao's appearance in Janet's trial space to the higher-ups of their clan the moment it happened, and were waiting for the higher-ups to make a final decision.
"Qianwu, the city lord just informed me that Lin Hao and Janet didn't cheat, but we need to be careful with the publicity surrounding them..."
"That's good..."
Qian Wu also breathed a sigh of relief. He had long known of Lin Hao's extraordinary abilities, after all, he was able to break through the multiple barriers of this Space Venerable and the secret realm and teleport out of his sensing range.
I was still thinking of helping him hide it and keeping it in my hands for a while longer.
To his utter surprise, this brat dared to cause trouble on such a large field and even interfere with other people's attempts to climb the tower.
Nine Swords Venerable gave Qianwu a strange look. Although he was a 'junior', they were all on the same level, so he naturally knew about the 'special' nature of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler.
Everyone knows he is heavily in debt and has worked for hundreds of millions of epochs to cultivate geniuses for his race.
This time, he picked up such an extraordinary disciple. Among the cosmic venerables who care most about the battle of geniuses, if Qian Wu says he is second, no one dares to say he is first.
Thinking of this, the Nine Swords Venerable spoke up to provoke the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom.
"The city lord also said that the little girl was using an anonymous helmet, and her real-world login address was also concealed by a secret technique. However, through the virtual universe, the city lord has already found some clues. Out of respect for Lin Hao's wish to protect his family and hometown, he has instructed us not to investigate arbitrarily. Everything will be handled personally after Lin Hao and Janet go to Chaos City..."
"Uh, really?"
Upon hearing what the Nine Swords Venerable said, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom felt a sense of crisis. "Although my disciple has some talent, he is only at the Stellar level now, and it's hard to say what his future achievements will be. Does the city lord value him so much now?"
Disciple?
Nine Swords Venerable's eyelids twitched, and he cursed inwardly, "That shameless old ghost Qianwu!"
The fact that a cosmic venerable is taking on a disciple is a major event for the human race, and for the higher-ups, it is even more important than the Genius Battle held once every five thousand years.
After all, not every Genius Battle produces a promising talent worthy of being accepted as a disciple by a Universe Venerable.
He also received an invitation from Qianwu, but preparing for the Cosmic Peak Genius Battle was official business, and his personal relationship with Qianwu wasn't that good, so he didn't attend.
However, he still carefully learned about the entire process before and after the shaman accepted a disciple—
