Chapter 1321

Zhuang Bi said indifferently, "Facts speak louder than words. The truth will be revealed in the arena. What is there to argue about now?"

"Besides, didn't you say Junior Brother Lin could fight a God Venerable while at the God King Realm? With him here, what are you worried about?"

— Seeking Flowers —

Chu Xiong's old face flushed red. He scratched his head and whispered, "You know I was just bragging to fool them."

Zhuang Bi remained completely indifferent, "Perhaps the boast you made will actually come true."

The projection changed once again. The image of the Black Tortoise disappeared, replaced by a star system.

This star system was extremely prosperous, with seven inhabited planets alone, plus eighteen resource planets.

This was a large star system with twenty-five main planets.

A star system of this scale was undoubtedly a high-level life star system.

A seeded contestant from the Black Tortoise Star Domain recognized the star system in the projection and shouted, "It's the Black Tortoise No. 9 Life Star System! That's my hometown."

The No. 9 Life Star System rapidly expanded in the projection, finally settling in the starry sky.

A massive arena with a diameter of over ten thousand li had already been built there, with the entire arena shrouded in a formation.

To test true combat power, the Four Star Domain Competition chose to take place in reality.

The entire process was controlled by the Human Emperor Network. Coupled with powerful formations set up by God Venerables, there were no accidents, and the possibility of dying in battle was almost non-existent.

Next, the information of the two combatants appeared in the projection.

One person was named Shui Hongbo, God King Rank 7, who specialized in the Law of Cold Water.

The other was named Feng Fu, also God King Rank 7, who specialized in the Law of Solid Ice.

After the formation introduced the two contestants, everyone present received information that they could place bets.

The betting range started from 10,000 points, with no upper limit.

The odds were fixed; winning a bet meant getting back double the points, while losing meant losing the wagered points.

Someone shouted, "Place your bets! Place your bets! I'm betting on Shui Hongbo to win. A small wager of 100,000 points."

"I'm betting on Feng Fu to win. Also 100,000 points."

The scene was lively, and the various conflicts from before had long since disappeared.

Only the people from the War God Temple stood far away on the outside, looking arrogant.

But in reality, they had also placed bets; they just didn't say it.

Xu Jianxing came up to Lin Moyu, "Senior Brother Lin, aren't you going to play?"

Lin Moyu smiled and glanced at Lin Mohan beside him, "Are you interested?"

Lin Mohan shook her head, "It's child's play. What is there to bet on?"

Lin Moyu said, "Stones from other hills may serve to polish the jade of this one. Knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in every battle. Junior Brother Xu, who did you bet on?"

Xu Jianxing laughed, "I just bet on one randomly. That person named Shui Hongbo looked more pleasing to the eye."

Lin Moyu also casually bet on Shui Hongbo to win, with 100,000 points as well, just for fun.

Chapter 1487: Characteristics of the Four Star Domains, Competition Rules

A few minutes later, the match began.

Shui Hongbo and Feng Fu went all out and began to trade blows.

The Law of Cold Water and the Law of Solid Ice were both types of the Law of Water, and both were known for their defensive capabilities.

Both of their defensive powers far exceeded their offensive powers, so the battle would continue for some time.

Someone from the White Tiger Star Domain complained, "The matches from the Black Tortoise Star Domain are the most boring. They always take half a day."

"Exactly. It's nowhere near as exciting as the Azure Dragon Star Domain and White Tiger Star Domain."

"Even the Vermilion Bird Star Domain is better to watch than the Black Tortoise Star Domain."

"If we're comparing excitement levels, the Black Tortoise Star Domain is undoubtedly last."

This was the truth, and even the people from the Black Tortoise Star Domain present could hardly refute it.

Someone grumbled unconvinced, "This is our style of fighting. It's meant to annoy you to death."

Lin Moyu lost interest after watching for a while. Just as Lin Mohan said, it was child's play.

If he went up there, he could kill them instantly.

In the central plaza, matches from various star domains were projected every day.

This allowed the seeded contestants to see the strong individuals from every star domain, which was also a perk for the seeded contestants.

However, the strongest seeded contestants from each star domain had already gathered here, and most of those who fought their way out of the preliminary rounds were merely foils.

After reaching level 5 authority, Lin Moyu had already checked the basic information of each star domain.

Among the Four Great Star Domains, the strongest was the Azure Dragon Star Domain.

Practitioners from the Azure Dragon Star Domain ranked first among the four star domains in terms of offensive power, and their defense was second only to the Black Tortoise Star Domain, making their overall combat power undoubtedly number one.

It is said that Primordial Dragon Blood was once left in the Azure Dragon Star Domain, giving the practitioners there a trace of dragon bloodline.

This trace of dragon bloodline gave the practitioners of the Azure Dragon Star Domain a special bonus, making them naturally a cut above the rest, which made others incredibly envious.

The defense of the Black Tortoise Star Domain ranked first among the Four Great Star Domains, but its offensive power was relatively weak.

The Law of Water was most prominent in the Black Tortoise Star Domain. Under its subtle influence, the practitioners in the Black Tortoise Star Domain understood the Law of Water the most, followed by earth and stone-type laws.

These laws had one common characteristic: extremely strong defense.

Besides having the number one defense, the Black Tortoise Star Domain also had a special ability.

They pioneered the method of Water Refining, using water to refine artifacts and using the inclusiveness of water to represent the explosiveness of fire, crafting a large number of war-type magic treasures and puppets for humanity.

For example, replicas of the War God Fortress and various large warships mostly came from the Black Tortoise Star Domain.

In addition to this, there was a special type of practitioner in the Black Tortoise Star Domain called a Summoner, which was rarely seen in other star domains.

It is said that the heritage of the Summoner was very ancient, even older than the ancient era. By some stroke of luck, it transformed into a bloodline and remained in the bloodline of the practitioners of the Black Tortoise Star Domain.

The Summoners of the Black Tortoise Star Domain were somewhat unique, which piqued Lin Moyu's great interest.

Unfortunately, the records in the documents were not detailed, and he could not see the full picture.

Lin Moyu intended to take the opportunity of the Four Star Domain Competition to take a closer look.

Practitioners from the White Tiger Star Domain liked to use swords. Various laws in their hands could be imbued into the sword, evolving and changing.

Their offensive power was slightly inferior to the Azure Dragon Star Domain, and their defense was slightly inferior to the Black Tortoise Star Domain.

The White Tiger Star Domain also had its special aspects. The Power of Belief originated in the White Tiger Star Domain, and after many years of development, it had now become one of the fundamental powers of humanity.

Through the Power of Belief, practitioners in the White Tiger Star Domain had extremely fast cultivation speeds and very stable foundations.

The Power of Belief could not only speed up cultivation and accelerate the comprehension of laws, but it was also said to have even more mysterious uses.

However, this ability could only be used by a few people, and the requirements were extremely high.

Lin Moyu had asked Lin Mohan, who also possessed a not-insignificant amount of Power of Belief at this moment. Her fame in the White Tiger Star Domain was great, and she had countless fans.

Lin Mohan told him that this mysterious use varied from person to person and required at least reaching the God Venerable realm to awaken.

Before reaching the God Venerable realm, the stronger the accumulated Power of Belief, the more powerful the ability would be after awakening.

This was why God Venerable Jianlan had been promoting her; it was to help her accumulate the Power of Belief.

Finally, there was the Vermilion Bird Star Domain, which was a jack of all trades but master of none.

Nothing was outstanding, but they knew everything.

Whether it was artifact refining, alchemy, or the Power of Belief, they knew a little bit of everything.

Unfortunately, this also resulted in the overall strength of the practitioners in the Vermilion Bird Star Domain being subpar, and they were often at the bottom.

At the time, after reading the information, Lin Moyu felt that the practitioners of the Vermilion Bird Star Domain were actually the most orthodox existence among humanity.

The practitioners here had the purest bloodline, inherited from the ancient humans, without any changes.

As one of the Four Source Clans, the bloodline of the ancient humans was not inferior to that of the dragon race.

It was just that too much time had passed, and the bloodline was too thin to be easily unearthed.

But once unearthed, the combat power would be heaven-defying.

Xiao Zhantian was the best example; Xiao Zhantian was from the Vermilion Bird Star Domain.

The information about the Four Great Star Domains flashed through his mind like lightning, and the match had already been going on for a while.

The two contestants had already used their magic treasures. Surprisingly, the two people's magic treasures were very similar.

Both were a large blade and a large shield.

The two fought back and forth, enjoying themselves…

Both sides had equal cultivation levels and similar strength, making it difficult to determine a winner for the time being.

The people present had already lost interest, and a few were already yawning.

In the eyes of these seeded contestants, this kind of match was really meaningless.

Lin Moyu found it a bit strange, "The cultivation of these two seems to be suppressed."

Although he was not at the scene and was only watching the projection, he keenly discovered that the power of their techniques did not match their cultivation levels.

Xu Jianxing asked, "Senior Brother Lin doesn't know the rules of the Four Star Domain Competition?"

Lin Moyu shook his head, "No one told me."

Xu Jianxing was not surprised, but explained in detail, "Actually, the rules of the Four Star Domain Competition are very simple. The first rule is that all contestants will have their realms uniformly suppressed to God King Rank 1."

"The second rule is that you cannot use magic treasures with artifact spirits, nor can you use magic treasures of the God King Realm or above."

"The third rule is that you cannot use soul attacks."

"The fourth rule is that you cannot intentionally take a life."

"The fifth rule is that when the Human Emperor Network calls for a stop, you must stop immediately."

"Those are the five rules; there are no other restrictions."

Lin Moyu could naturally understand these five rules. The Four Star Domain Competition mainly tested individual strength. If everyone relied on magic treasures, it would be meaningless.

Those backed by large families would inevitably be able to obtain some powerful magic treasures, and the Four Star Domain Competition would turn into a magic treasure contest.

Having the realm suppressed to God King Rank 1 was also nothing to argue about.

The strength of the contestants was uneven. If the realms were not unified, what would there be to compete for?

One of the purposes of the Four Star Domain Competition was to select human geniuses with potential.

What does it mean to have potential? At the very least, one must be invincible in the same realm.

You can fight across levels, and so can I; it just depends on who is stronger.

As for not being able to use soul attacks and not being able to take a life, it was the same principle: this was a competition, not a fight for one's life.

Soul attacks were silent and traceless; even the Human Emperor Network would find it difficult to stop them in time.

Since that was the case, it was better to just ban them directly.

As the supervisor of the match, when the Human Emperor Network said stop and you still tried to attack, that meant your brain was broken.

People who didn't listen, no matter how strong their potential was, would not be valued.

Lin Moyu thanked Xu Jianxing, "Thank you, Junior Brother Xu, for clearing up my confusion."

Xu Jianxing waved his hand, "Senior Brother Lin, don't be so polite. This is just superficial information; even if I didn't know it, you would have found out very soon."

Lin Moyu smiled and suddenly looked up towards the distance.

Thousands of kilometers away, a majestic pressure was rolling over unscrupulously!
