Chapter 784: Chapter 239: The 100-Story Golden Tower, Qin Feng’s Emergence as the Uncontested Number One in Combat Power
In an instant!
The cosmos lit up!
A hundred million "great suns," each with a unique form but all burning with the same dazzling brilliance, appeared simultaneously in the deep, dark cosmos!
Cauldron-shaped projections, bell-shaped projections, pagoda-shaped projections, wing-shaped projections...
Billions of rays of light intertwined, bathing the cold cosmos in daylight and banishing all darkness and solitude!
It was a magnificent tableau worthy of the history books.
It was a heartfelt send-off, one that came from the depths of their souls.
Qin Feng and Caesar watched this scene quietly, feeling the pure, ardent Mental Will that had coalesced into one.
After a moment, the two looked at each other and burst into laughter at the same time.
"Hahahaha—"
"Hahahahahahaha—"
Their heroic laughter, filled with unparalleled confidence and joy, shook the firmament, causing countless stars to resonate in response!
The road ahead is long, but I do not walk it alone!
...
Within the territory of the Six Great Star Systems Alliance, the dazzling sea of light formed by the convergence of a hundred million Indestructible Projections burned in the cold cosmos for a long time before slowly dissipating as everyone departed.
But the ardent, pure Will that had coalesced into one seemed to remain, seared into the void, a testament to a silent coronation and a grand departure.
The road ahead is long, but I do not walk it alone.
Those words echoed in the hearts of Qin Feng and Caesar, becoming the firmest source of strength for the path ahead.
After bidding farewell to the Martial Artists of the alliance, the pair wasted no time.
With a mere thought, they activated Subspace Teleportation.
A brand new, unfamiliar Star Realm appeared before them.
This was the very center of the entire battle zone’s ten thousand star systems, and the nexus for all conflict and opportunity at this stage.
The moment he arrived, Qin Feng sensed an atmosphere completely different from that of the alliance’s territory.
A thick, lingering, murderous aura permeated the space here.
Countless powerful and chaotic Energy Aftermaths raged and collided in the void like unseen undercurrents.
Distant stars could occasionally be seen, covered with massive claw marks and horrifying wounds that pierced through their cores. Some planets had even been pulverized long ago, reduced to silent Meteorite Belts.
This was a battlefield—one of the highest intensity.
"Looks like we’ve come to the right place."
Qin Feng surveyed his surroundings, his gaze calm.
His powerful Mental Power spread out in an instant like an invisible net, sensing the environmental information all around him.
Caesar had already skillfully opened his personal terminal, accessing the Subspace forum that covered the entire battle zone.
A massive stream of information flashed rapidly across his golden eyes. A moment later, he looked up with a hint of emotion.
"I just took a detailed look at the latest intelligence on the forums. The competition really does get more intense and crazier the further it progresses."
He gestured at the vast Star Realm and continued, "Take this core region we’re in now, for example. It’s about a hundred star systems in size, and a large number of Star System Level Resource Points are spawning here almost every day.
The organizers’ intentions are obvious. They want to drive all the surviving experts into this ’Beast Fighting Arena’ for the most primitive and bloody contest."
"I remember, in the first few hundred years after the competition began, forget about Star System Level Resources. Just fighting for a single decent Constant Star-level Resource could require decades of planning, probing, and maneuvering between several alliances.
Because back then, Resource Points often came with complex environmental factors, powerful Guardians, and even rule traps set by the organizers. There were too many variables."
Caesar’s tone held a hint of reminiscence. "But now, the organizers seem to have abandoned all that... convolution.
These newly appearing Star System Level Resource Points have been specially selected and modified to remove most external interference.
They’re like the Heaven-Reaching Vine Fruit or the Barbaric Beast Graveyard. The resources are just laid bare for the taking. Whoever has the bigger fist, whoever can carve a bloody path through countless competitors, gets to claim it.
Everything is decided by strength alone."
Qin Feng nodded slightly in understanding.
It was a shift in the screening mechanism.
The early stages tested the competitors’ comprehensive abilities, including strategy, patience, and teamwork.
But in the later stages, once everyone’s fundamental strength had reached a certain level, the organizers ripped away the gentle facade and returned to the most core principle—absolute martial might.
"In this pure battle royale mode, the Combat Power rankings change with frightening speed."
Caesar swiped at the virtual screen before him, which displayed the real-time Combat Power rankings. "Look, just in the few minutes we’ve been talking, the list of the top one thousand has already refreshed hundreds of times.
A famous name from yesterday could vanish without a trace today.
At the same time, the Ten Thousand Races’ Celestial Prides who had been lurking in the shadows have finally bared their fangs.
They’re like the most efficient hunters, specifically targeting and hunting the Martial Artists in the top thousand of the Combat Power rankings."
"The organizers really have mastered the game of human nature and competition rules."
Caesar concluded with a hint of admiration, "They’ve given geniuses enough room and opportunities to grow, while also using the cruelest rules to force them to kill each other, striking a near-perfect balance between the competition’s intensity and its training effect."
"I understand."
Qin Feng’s reply was succinct. His gaze swept over the rapidly changing numbers on Caesar’s screen as he suddenly asked, "How many competitors are left?"
