Chapter 61: I, Am Thunder

Soon.

The team competition in the Canglan Star tournament ended.

Due to Lin Yuan turning the tide single-handedly, Dongning City actually managed to secure the 100th place.

One must know that this was a ranking for the entire Canglan Star.

Canglan Star was divided into five continents: the Eastern Continent, Western Continent, Northern Continent, and Southern Continent.

Along with the strongest Central Continent.

Over twenty thousand cities participated.

To be able to win a spot in the top one hundred among so many cities—

made who knows how many cities turn green with envy.

Everyone's eyes were not blind; they were well aware that Canglan City could have its current ranking

entirely because of 'Lin Yuan'.

This Evolver, who could be compared to a Tier 3 to a certain extent, was the core of Dongning City's participating team.

As for the other three, calling them pendants was already praising them.

"If our city had an Evolver like 'Lin Yuan', we probably could have rushed into the top fifty."

"Indeed, an Evolver who has mastered the power of the Domain is suited to control the entire field. This ability is too rare."

"I don't know what kind of dogshit luck Dongning City had; in previous tournaments, we hadn't even heard of this city's name, and now it suddenly popped up."

"Right, does anyone here know this 'Lin Yuan'?"

Countless spectators were discussing rapidly.

In the team competition, the most dazzling one was undoubtedly Lin Yuan.

His spotlight even overshadowed those dozen-odd Tier 3 Evolvers.

After all, using Tier 2 strength to hold off a Tier 3 Evolver for more than half an hour was a scene that was hard to come by in previous tournaments.

"Next is the individual competition."

"I wonder what ranking that Lin Yuan can rush to."

"In my opinion, at least the top fifty?"

"I think he can reach the top twenty, just below those dozen-odd Tier 3 Evolvers."

The popularity of the tournament further increased; after all, compared to the team competition, the popularity of the individual competition was even higher.

Dongning City Arena.

The individual arena competition was more than half a month later than the team competition.

Therefore, until the team competition ended, the individual competition had only competed down to the top five hundred.

Lin Yuan stood on one side of the arena, quietly waiting for his opponent in this match.

And the surrounding seats were filled with spectators.

After hundreds of matches, Lin Yuan had also accumulated a large number of 'fans'.

Especially in the final battle of the team competition, single-handedly resisting one Tier 3 Evolver and three Tier 2 peak Evolvers for more than half an hour,

and ultimately losing only due to the tournament rules, he gained countless fans.

Therefore, nowadays, every match of Lin Yuan had a large number of spectators coming to watch, and these spectators came from all over Canglan Star.

Even hundreds of millions of ordinary citizens watched through 'real-time broadcasting'.

"I didn't expect that in this tournament, I could actually walk this far," host Sun Bin sighed with deep emotion.

As the host of Dongning City, Sun Bin naturally could only broadcast matches involving Dongning City.

If all the contestants from Dongning City were eliminated, naturally there would be nothing left for him to do.

In past tournaments, the match Sun Bin broadcasted the most was decades ago, but compared to now, it was naturally far inferior.

You must know that today's tournament had reached the top five hundred, which could be said to be close to the final stage.

He, Sun Bin, felt like he was dreaming.

No, even if Sun Bin dreamed, he wouldn't dare to dream such a dream.

"Alright, now our contestant Lin Yuan has arrived, the one who has created miracles all the way—"

Sun Bin did not stint his praise for Lin Yuan, and then began to introduce Lin Yuan's opponent.

"In this match, the opponent is Sima Yun from Haiyuan City, who is also a Tier 2 peak Evolver, following the Water Element Evolution Pathway."

Sun Bin looked at the seats filled with spectators all around, and said in a passionate voice: "Judging by historical battle records, Lin Yuan definitely has a slightly higher chance of winning, but Sima Yun cannot be underestimated either."

On the arena grounds.

Lin Yuan looked at the opponent who appeared in the distance.

Sima Yun was a woman with blue pupils; looking at her felt as if looking at an ocean.

"Water Element Evolution Pathway"

Lin Yuan's face showed interest.

The Water Element Evolution Pathway belonged to one of the Elemental Evolution Pathways.

Elemental Evolution Pathways included the five mainstream evolution pathways of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, in addition to special evolution pathways such as shadows and ice.

In previous matches, Lin Yuan had encountered some Evolvers of other types of elemental evolution pathways.

But the water element evolution pathway was rare.

Soon.

The match began.

Lin Yuan was about to unfold the Taiji Field.

To study Sima Yun properly.

Right at this moment,

Sima Yun, standing opposite Lin Yuan, raised her hand without hesitation:

"I surrender."

Sima Yun gave Lin Yuan a deep look.

If it were any other opponent, no matter what, she, Sima Yun, would try to resist a bit.

She wouldn't just surrender directly.

But Lin Yuan…

Sima Yun had been paying attention to Lin Yuan for a long time.

She was clear about Lin Yuan's combat style.

Opponents who fought with Lin Yuan were often able to hold on until the very last moment.

During this time, they would be toyed with and probed in various ways by Lin Yuan.

Fighting Tier 1 opponents was like this.

Fighting Tier 2 opponents was also like this.

After a long time, Sima Yun sensed that something was amiss.

Therefore, she directly chose to surrender.

After all, Sima Yun felt that it was absolutely impossible for her to hold on for more than half an hour in the hands of a Tier 3 Evolver.

Lin Yuan being able to do it proved that his strength surpassed hers.

Rather than being toyed with continuously after engaging in combat, it was better to surrender and make it clean and straightforward.

"Surrender."

Lin Yuan was slightly taken aback.

He sighed.

In recent individual matches, there were more and more such unmotivated Evolvers.

Before leaving,

Sima Yun asked Lin Yuan with some curiosity:

"Are you also like them, for those ten spots?"

"Ten spots?" Lin Yuan did not answer.

When he returned to the lounge,

Lin Yuan fell into brief contemplation.

As an Evolver capable of fighting her way into the top five hundred,

what Sima Yun said certainly wouldn't be without basis.

"Ten spots?"

"Is it the top ten? Or something else?"

Lin Yuan touched his chin.

At the same time, he began connecting to the Goddess of Wisdom.

"I want to know about the ten spots in the tournament."

Lin Yuan asked directly.

Instead of painstakingly probing into the question of the 'ten spots',

it was better to directly ask the Goddess of Wisdom. Throughout Human Civilization, the Goddess of Wisdom knew everything that should and shouldn't be known.

"Beep. Authority sufficient. The so-called 'ten spots' refer to this session of the Canglan Star tournament being drawn into the browsing range of the Red Kun Star Lord."

"The top ten Evolvers of the individual tournament have a chance to fall into the eyes of the Red Kun Star Lord."

The solemn and aloof voice of the Goddess of Wisdom slowly sounded.

"Red Kun Star Lord?"

Lin Yuan's expression was somewhat surprised.

This was a supreme big figure ruling over a Star Domain.

The Chi Kun Star Region, including eight major star systems, were all within the sphere of influence of this Red Kun Star Lord.

Canglan Star, Central Continent.

Inside a private space,

a man with phantom thunder images emerging in his pupils sat on a sofa.

Just by this man sitting there, subtle lightning faintly flowed through the surrounding Void Realm.

"This is the list of contestants that need attention for this tournament, as well as detailed information. You should still take a look at some of it, Thunder God, to avoid problems when fighting."

Beside the man with phantom thunder images in his pupils stood a middle-aged man. He gently pressed the virtual light screen in front of him and retreated to the front of the sofa.

Among these contestant lists, basically all were Evolvers whose strength had reached Tier 3, along with a small number of special Tier 2 peak Evolvers. Lin Yuan's name was also among them.

"I don't need these."

Thunder God's expression was calm.

He was struck by thunder since childhood, and thousands of people around him died, only he survived, and his body was even transformed into a Thunder Body.

Casually choosing an evolution pathway related to thunder, he advanced by leaps and bounds, stepping into the Tier 3 level in just a few decades.

In terms of combat power, he swept all the way across. Summoning thunder, mastering thunder, transforming into thunder—these allowed him to possess an overwhelming advantage when facing other Evolvers.

"Analyzing opponents is the behavior of the weak; I don't need it."

Thunder God slowly stood up, walked to the window, and said with slightly fervent eyes: "These opponents on the tournament stage, I have never taken seriously."

"Because they are all mortal beings, and I am Thunder."

Thunder God stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, his tone, word by word, containing immense confidence and assurance.
