Chapter 588 The Arena!
A set of data flashed through Lin Qiye's mind.
In the 0755 star system, the basic power of the peak of the Mystic Realm, when unleashed purely by the physical body, is roughly in the millions of tons.
To unleash a terrifying damage of nearly 100 million tons in the astral plane, it would mean instantly amplifying one's base power by a full 100 times through arcane arts, magical techniques, armor, or divine weapons!
This is not merely a matter of accumulating strength, but rather a manifestation of the ultimate understanding of the rules of martial arts.
"A 100-fold power boost?" Lin Qiye muttered to himself.
Upon hearing Lin Qiye's words, Bingyu weakly said:
"Master... In fact, the basic strength of ordinary peak-level martial artists in the Mysterious Realm does not reach the level of one million tons. Most geniuses only have a few hundred thousand tons. Only a very few people like you, who have a perfect foundation, can touch the threshold of one million tons at the peak of the Mysterious Realm."
She paused, then added somewhat embarrassedly, "Like me and Chi Yan, although we are already at the early stage of Martial God, our basic power is only a little over a million tons... It would be extremely difficult to increase it by 30 times."
"A 100-fold increase... that's something only the most exceptional geniuses in the entire Taurus constellation can achieve... but you, Master, will definitely be able to do it!"
In Bingyu's heart, Lin Qiye was perfect.
Chi Yan sighed softly from the side, "Yes, Master. Those whose names are listed in the top ten of the Divine Weapon Ranking are almost all the 'golden brands' of the top founding families of the main star."
"For example, the first-ranked Jiang clan, the second-ranked Yao clan, the third-ranked Ying clan, as well as the Ji, Sun, and Xiahou clans. They have dominated this list for more than ten years now."
Lin Qiye raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised: "Ten years? Does that mean that in these ten years, no one in the entire Taurus constellation has emerged who can challenge them? These nine monstrous geniuses with punching power exceeding one hundred million tons have been stuck at the top all this time?"
Chi Yan shook his head and explained, "Master, you misunderstand. The rules of the ordinary Divine Weapon Ranking are: as long as you pass the 'Martial God Fire Seed Competition' and successfully fuse with the fire seed to become a formal member, your name on the basic ranking will automatically disappear and you will move to the peak ranking. So, once someone disappears from this list, it means that they have stepped into the Martial God realm and officially begun their interstellar journey."
Lin Qiye's eyes narrowed: "You mean... the six people on this list haven't fused with the Fire Seed in the past ten years?"
"Yes." Bingyu nodded. "These six are actually all peerless geniuses from collateral branches of the family. In order to maintain the family's prestige and reputation in the Star Realm, they voluntarily stayed in the preparatory stage."
"They will not participate in the Martial God Fire Seed Competition, but will instead hone their combat skills and explosive power during the preparation stage, until the family cultivates a collateral descendant with the same strength to replace their ranking."
"Before that, they would rather give up ten or even twenty years."
"Of course, in exchange, the family will provide them with a massive amount of resources to help them reach higher levels in the future. Once they are relieved of their burdens and obtain the spark, their cultivation speed will be extremely astonishing, allowing them to directly advance towards becoming interstellar war gods."
Lin Qiye looked at the ancient surnames on the list and couldn't help but feel a sense of shock.
Collateral relatives are willing to serve as the face of the family, spending decades guarding the name on a basic list.
This obsession with glory and the strict hierarchy within the family are enough to reveal the terrifying power of those founding families.
"So, are the Jiang, Yao, Ying, Ji, Sun, and Xiahou clans on the list... just code names?"
Chi Yan nodded and said, "As long as you make it onto the list, you decide what name is displayed. They only decide to display your family name..."
Lin Qiye nodded. Whether it was the [Gladiator Ranking], the [Single Soldier Ranking], or the [Divine Weapon Ranking], those at the top were all from various family surnames!
This is clearly a competition between the major powerhouses!
Lin Qiye looked at the last crystal pillar: "What about the [Kill Ranking]?"
"That's the real-time kill ranking from the most recent 'Martial God Fire Seed Tournament,' which is reset every month," Bingyu replied. "It's the most prestigious honor that all newcomers can strive for before obtaining the Fire Seed. As long as you can leave your name on the kill list, even if you don't get first place in the end, you'll be frantically recruited by various major forces."
Lin Qiye glanced at the system clock.
There are only 48 hours left until the start of the Martial God Fire Seed Tournament.
"48 hours... it's not a long time, but it's not short either."
A fierce fighting spirit ignited in Lin Qiye's eyes.
If we're going to fight, let's fight from beginning to end.
"Let's go, let's enter the [Basic Arena] first."
Lin Qiye issued a command in his mind, "Before the Martial God Fire Seed Competition begins, I want to see if there's any chance of making it onto the rankings!"
Both Chi Yan and Bing Yu were shocked upon hearing this.
Although they knew their master was powerful, that was a forbidden area that the founding family had occupied for ten years!
However, seeing Lin Qiye's confident smile, the two women did not hesitate and answered in unison:
"Master can definitely do it!"
【Ding! 】
[Transferring you to the Basic Arena!]
Please enter your nickname!
Nickname: 777
With a flash of white light, Lin Qiye and Chi Yanbingyu's figures vanished from the bustling street in an instant.
When he reappeared, Lin Qiye was already standing on a floating circular platform with a diameter of about 100 meters.
All around were countless virtual screens, like a honeycomb. Each screen was broadcasting live battles from different arenas.
Some battle it out in the lava hell, some clash on the far north ice plains, and five-person teams engage in complex street fighting in a dilapidated city.
Lin Qiye casually swiped his hand across the screen, and with just a slight thought, those screens could be magnified several times in an instant, even revealing the sweat dripping down the skin of the martial artists.
However, Lin Qiye only glanced at it briefly before shaking his head in disinterest.
"Too slow."
Chi Yan and Bing Yu stood behind Lin Qiye, their beautiful eyes filled with anticipation.
"Master, do you plan to watch a few matches to study your opponents?" Chi Yan asked softly.
"I won't watch it, it's boring."
Lin Qiye's tone was decisive: "Let's try the individual competition first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qiye raised his hand and gently pressed the [Entry Application] button in the air.
Swish!
His figure instantly disintegrated into countless points of light and disappeared on the circular platform.
Upon seeing Lin Qiye enter, Chi Yan and Bing Yu no longer stood solemnly as usual.
The two exchanged a knowing smile, and with a gentle tap of their slender fingers in the air, two exquisitely designed silver recliners instantly materialized.
They sat down comfortably and pulled up a huge holographic screen in front of them, which was showing Lin Qiye's preparations.
"The placement matches have started."
A cold smile curved Bingyu's lips as his fingers rapidly tapped the odds on the side of the screen.
For the master's first game, we must buy the full amount!
