Chapter 927: Chapter 930: Hall of Fame Challenge Match_1 Chapter 927: Chapter 930: Hall of Fame Challenge Match_1 Lin Zhen’s induction into the Hall of Fame was a big deal for the Ground Clan in the entire Endless Battlefield.

The Dimensional Universe was filled with rejoicing voices, and the Martial Artists at the scene were cheering, applauding, and whistling.

Bai Yunyan approached Lin Zhen and said sincerely, “Congratulations, Brother Lin, on your induction into the Hall of Fame.

If I have offended you in the past, I hope you won’t take it to heart.”

Lin Zhen wouldn’t hold any grudges against Bai Yunyan.

It’s normal for the strong to protect the weak and to have some interests in return, otherwise who would want to help out for free.

Just that, Bai Yunyan had underestimated Lin Zhen’s strength, Lin Zhen simply didn’t need his protection.

“Not at all, Brother Bai,” Lin Zhen reassured, “I very much understand your actions.

…

Let’s not dwell on the past.”

Seeing Lin Zhen not taking things to heart, Bai Yunyan laughed heartily, “Indeed, straightforward people speak straightforwardly.

If you don’t mind, call me ‘older brother’.

Why don’t we hang out when we get the chance?”

After some consideration, Lin Zhen agreed.

As a seasoned strong in the Hall of Fame, Bai Yunyan had definitely had more experiences and connections than Lin Zhen.

Since he had now joined the Hall of Fame, Lin Zhen was ready to engage with higher circles.

Seeing Lin Zhen’s agreement, Bai Yunyan immediately said, “Little brother, add me to your Dimensional Universe first.

Once this matter is over, I’ll get in touch with you.”

Lin Zhen nodded and both added each other in the Dimensional Universe, becoming friends.

Having just finished the battle, Lin Zhen needed to rest for a while.

After saying goodbye to Bai Yunyan, Lin Zhen directly tore through space and left.

He casually took a few steps, and when he emerged, he was in a void.

Lin Zhen found a desolated asteroid to rest temporarily.

Lin Zhen didn’t gain much from this battle, aside from obtaining seven short swords and a rainbow bridge from Su Lante.

As for the other Martial Artists’ belongings, he didn’t get any at all.

The people he killed were basically taken advantage by others.

At that time, he didn’t even have time to collect Divine Stones from their bodies.

But Lin Zhen didn’t care much now, as he had basically used up the rewards inside the storm’s eye.

The remaining stuff didn’t interest Lin Zhen anymore.

The seven short swords were timely, they could replace his previous Seven Stars Knife and could be used directly.

As for the Rainbow Bridge, it was a treasure that contained Space Power.

While it served defensive purposes, it also had the ability to traverse the void, similar to the Luo Heavenly Escape.

In fact, the Rainbow Bridge was even more useful than the Luo Heavenly Escape.

Lin Zhen tried it once and found that this Rainbow Bridge could be used in shattered space, which was very remarkable.

However, these two treasures didn’t attract Lin Zhen’s attention very much.

Most of his attention was on the new things that had appeared in his Dimensional Universe.

Inside the Dimensional Universe, a golden list was displayed, containing a hundred names.

One: Qiong Jing.

Two: Ye Xingcai.

Three: He Ying.

Four: An Luoqi.

Five: Augustine…..

Forty-Nine: Bai Yunyan…..

Ninety-Eight: Lin Zhen…..

The names were listed from top to bottom, listing the top hundred masters of the Ground Clan in the Hall of Fame.

Among them, Lin Zhen’s name was currently ranked ninety-eighth.

Just as Lin Zhen was engrossed in scanning each name, Chris appeared.

“Master, congratulations on your induction into the Hall of Fame.

From now on, your fame will undoubtedly spread far and wide, making you known to all.”

Lin Zhen laughed a bit, “The efforts of the Storm Eye’s journey weren’t in vain.

Having become a member of the Hall of Fame, I’ve managed to continuously stay famous.

As long as I’m not kicked out of the Hall of Fame, I believe my two sons will surely find me.”

“Master, if you want to contact the Young Masters, you should post a message in the Dimensional Universe and leave your Dimensional Universe ID.

But don’t mention you’re looking for someone yet.

Should the Young Masters be in danger, your enemies might find them.

Once the Young Masters see your post, they will surely add you actively.”

“Right, that was my intention too.”

Immediately, Lin Zhen posted a message in the Dimensional Universe, leaving his ID with a simple message “If fate allows, feel free to add me.”

The phrase ‘if fate allows’ had a deep connotation.

Generally, Lin Zhen wouldn’t accept friend requests from strangers, only those he knew.

Chris could handle this matter proficiently, blocking random friend requests, and actively notifying Lin Zhen about the ones he needed to accept.

As soon as Lin Zhen’s post was sent out, it was pinned to the top by the Dimensional Universe Company.

At the beginning of the post, there were three golden characters indicating ‘Hall of Fame’.

This sign was exclusive to the Hall of Fame.

As soon as Lin Zhen’s post was published, countless comments popped up under it.

Most of the Martial Artists were expressing their admiration for the grandmaster, some were actively seeking to add him, others were asking to be his apprentice, and still others asking for elixirs and so on.

For the time being, Lin Zhen paid no heed to these things and continued communicating with Chris.

“Master, your entry into the Hall of Fame grants you great benefits.

Within the entire Endless Battlefield, aside from the gods, Hall of Fame members represents the pinnacle of combat power.

With this status, you’ll virtually be unstoppable in the Endless Battlefield unless you encounter Hall of Fame strong ones from the Endless Species.

Everyone else is hardly worth mentioning.”

“I hope so, but my ranking in the Hall of Fame seems a bit low.

If it were higher, the effect would undoubtedly be better.”

Although Lin Zhen’s post was pinned, it wasn’t the only one.

Some Hall of Fame posts ranked above Lin Zhen, which were determined according to their respective rankings in the Hall of Fame.

But Lin Zhen didn’t have any good measures at hand now and could only wait patiently.

He calculated and realized it has been almost fifty years since he left the Falling Star Lake.

According to the agreement with Jin Nuo, Lin Zhen must return to Falling Star Lake in forty years to participate in the final graduation examination.

He needs to challenge the Thirty-Three Skytower again to determine his status in Falling Star Lake.

But before that, Lin Zhen has no plans to return to Falling Star Lake.

He still needs to find his son in the Endless Battlefield.

“Master, the battle at the Eye of the Storm has basically ended.

Do you plan to continue practicing here or walk around other parts of the Endless Battlefield?”

After thinking for a moment, Lin Zhen replied: “Let’s practice here for a few days first.

The Eye of the Storm may have lost its thunder force, but I believe there are still many Divine Stones here.

It won’t hurt to collect them.

Let’s head to the Intersecting Continent.

The task of collecting Divine Stones will be handed over to the treasure-seeking vine.

I will also use this time to strive for another breakthrough, and aim to reach the middle stage of the God Realm.”

Having made up his mind, Lin Zhen directly tore through space.

This time he did not use Luo Heavenly Escape, but the Rainbow Bridge, which offers better stability, and went directly to the Intersecting Continent.

The Intersecting Continent is a crisscrossed land, looking as if a gigantic interchange bridge has been magnified millions of times.

At the Eye of the Storm, many people were still collecting Divine Stones, but when they saw Lin Zhen’s arrival, all martial artists, whether from the Ground Clan or the Endless Species, retreated far away.

Lin Zhen didn’t want to pay heed to these people and chose an independent planet for meditation, and released the treasure-seeking vine.

The area Lin Zhen gave to the treasure-seeking vine was the entire Intersecting Continent, instructing it to bring back anything it finds.

As for Lin Zhen himself, he went back to his training.

Under twenty-four fold Time Deceleration, Lin Zhen was confident that he would break into the middle stage of the God Realm within three years.

After his battle with Su Lante, Lin Zhen got a rough estimate of his strength.

His current strength can rank him around thirty or forty in the Hall of Fame.

The initial progress is relatively easy but as one advances in the Hall of Fame rankings, it becomes more difficult.

Even ascending a single rank can become a seemingly insurmountable mountain.

The fundamental solution is still to continue increasing Star Power.

As Lin Zhen continued to cultivate here, everyone around distanced themselves from the planet, which is an unwritten rule among martial artists.

If a strong individual is present, the weaker ones should stay away out of respect.

Currently, there is no doubt that Lin Zhen is the strongest in the Eye of the Storm.

Time began to pass day by day…

Three months later, the treasure-seeking vine brought back more than twenty thousand divine stones to Lin Zhen.

But there was no more Beast God Blood for Lin Zhen to exchange, which meant he couldn’t refine more Elixirs.

All he could do was continue cultivating.

As he was already at the initial peak stage, with a bit more effort, he could reach the middle stage through self-cultivation.

Half a year later, the exchange event at the Eye of the Storm finally ended.

The four Great Gods announced their departure from the Eye of the Storm.

This would be the last time such a storm-eye exchange would occur.

From this point forward, this place would become an ordinary star system.

As the Gods departed and the number of Divine Stones gradually decreased, more and more martial artists left the Eye of the Storm.

But Lin Zhen continued to practice in place, completely unaware of the passage of time.

*********

Both the Ground Clan and the Endless Species have their respective Halls of Fame.

It’s not just a list.

Rather, almost all the top strong ones from both species have been members of the Hall of Fame at some point.

Strictly speaking, the number of gods greatly exceeds the members of the Hall of Fame, which only has two hundred spots.

Even if you are a deity, you might not have been a Hall of Fame member before becoming a deity.

The Hall of Fame is a symbol of honor.

Every change in the rankings of the Hall of Fame can provoke a stir among the two species and trigger discussions.

A major shift in rankings is one of the biggest events in the Endless Battlefield.

The ranking of the Hall of Fame is not static.

Apart from advancing in rank through challenge, there are two events that can change the rankings.

One is the Skyfire War, which is a life-and-death confrontation between the two species.

To ensure that the mining area near Skyfire City is not devastated, gods are forbidden to participate in Skyfire War.

At such times, it comes down to the mutual combat of strong Hall of Fame members from both sides.

However, Skyfire War rarely occurs, the last one took place fifty million years ago.

The other ranking changer is the Hall of Fame Challenge.

The Hall of Fame Challenge is a way for both species to ascertain the strength of their Hall of Fame members and for the members to prove that their fame is justified.

For both species, the Hall of Fame Challenge is also a way to gauge the other party’s strength.

If one party is weaker, it might potentially be a prelude to the outbreak of a Skyfire War.

Hence, this challenge rarely takes place.
