“I’ll push myself even further and give it a shot!”

“We’ll see just how far I, David can push to!” David’s eyes gleamed, it was a light of anticipation of his path of the strong.

The arena war lasted for a total of 5 days. When it ended, the 10,000 participants that made it through had one day of rest, and within that one day…the organizing party the Virtual World Corp also gave out information on the upcoming battles and informed every participant.

  * * *

The arena fights were very quick. Every battle eliminated half of its people, requiring only four successive wins to get a slot!

In a dark room in David’s villa in district 9, late night.

Crimson river surged and flowed within the room as David continously absorbed the Blood crystal with his muscle. 

Taking one drop of Divine Dove’s tears David closed the Blood Race crystal in a box and the blood river faded like an illusion. 

“David, your opponent this time isn’t simple.” Hazel emphasized.

“Among these 10,000 participants, there’s a total of 521 who’ve stepped through the gateway of the origin laws, and from four matches they will pick the final 625.Theoretically speaking, these 521 should all get a slot.” The Ai muttered, “However, I don’t know just how this Virtual World Corp distributed the teams. They actually let origin law geniuses meet each other?”

Right.

Even though according to the footage of the arena wars before, they concluded that there was a total of 521 who’ve stepped through the origin laws gateway, If they distributed it properly…the Virtual World Corp could have left these 521 not ever meet and get a slot.

However…

The Virtual World Corp didn’t do it that way. A large portion of these origin laws geniuses didn’t have to ever meet in their four matches, but a small group of them, close to 100 of them did have to meet each other!

Like David himself!

According to the distribution, for his first, second and third battles, he had a certain guarantee to win! However the fourth match…according to his list, as long as that origin law genius didn’t lose along the way, then his 4th opponent would be another who had stepped through the gateway!

His name was Wain, his nickname was Archfiend.

Archfiend Wain!

“According to this distribution, there’ll be close to 100 origin law warriors who will meet in the fourth match.” David nodded, 

“And these close to 100 people were the top most intrepid performers of the arena wars.”

Whether it was Archfiend Wain or Devil David, they were the most powerful and massacred their arena wars group. They were just invincible.

“In terms of strength.”

“This close to 100 people, should belong to the upper echelon of the strong.” The voice of the AI which had turned feminine emphasized, 

“Right now the Virtual World Corp is obviously wanting them to meet to test them out. After all, the loser still has a chance in the loser’s circle. In the circle, there will be less than 50 origin law warriors, and there are 275 slots for the losers circle. These origin law warriors, even if they lose their fourth match, through the loser’s circle, they can still get a slot.”

“From the Virtual World Corp’s point of view, it’s probably to test this group of geniuses.”

Makes sense.

The Virtual World Corp organized this to pick out the most pinnacle of geniuses. Hence making them fight against each other and picking out the most exceptional was a very normal circumstance.

“The first to third battles, you shouldn’t have any trouble. Right now your only opponent is the fourth match where you’ll meet Archfiend Wain. I’ve seen his strength personally, it’s extremely terrifying, than those you’ve fought with in the past, but it shouldn’t take too much from you.”

Virtual universe, in the space that belonged to the Blood Axe dojo. On island number 29,904, the arena duels were about to begin.

“Attention all, standing in the center of the arena right now is the genius from the Burning Dragon starfield, Kilton.” Following the loud announcement throughout the entire arena, the audience immediately erupted in a wave of cheers and roars. The over 1 hundred million race from the Burning Dragon starfield were incomparably excited, all shouting as loud as they could.

“Kilton!”

“Kilton!”

“You are the strongest!”

Over one hundred million excited cheers could be heard.

The two sides, from two different starfields, were both given one hundred million tickets.

Hence today’s match had one billion spectators, of which two hundred million were separately from the Aeon Star mystic starfield and the Burning Dragon starfield.

“The next to take the stage is the one you’ve all been waiting for. From the Aeon Star mystic empire…an absolute genius, David!!!” The commentator’s voice was even louder than the first time, obviously the commentator was a little more biased towards David.

“David!”

“David!”

“David!”

It wasn’t just the Aeon Star mystic empire’s over one hundred million people cheering loudly, more than half the people from the other eight hundred million from the other starfields in the Aeon multiverse too were cheering his name. Even though both had made it through the arena wars, obviously David who had dominated his group…had won over the support from many in the Aeon multiverse.

While a trillion eyes were watching him, David followed the same pathway and walked into the center of the arena.

The cheers got even louder!

Countless human ladies of different races all shouted and screeched, some even fainting. The 100% virtual simulation had such an effect, even bodily functions were simulated.

There were two youths of different races standing in the arena. One with a large, dark blade and dressed in dark grey cloth, the black haired youth David. The other was a youth with dragon scales, burning eyes and horns who was standing on a large board, smiling and with a gentle aura, Kilton.

“David, all the best.” Kilton greeted respectfully, displaying his manners.

David just stood there, completely immersed in his mental state, like a hidden volcano, without any reaction at all.

He didn’t know why, even though Kilton before him seemed very courteous, it gave him an outrageous sense of discomfort, as for why he had that feeling, he couldn’t explain it.

“You too.”

A tall, sturdy and handsome commentator smiled, “This will be very similar to the arena wars. As the battle progresses, the space you have will continue to shrink. It’ll only require 5 minutes before the entire space will shrink down to only a diameter of 1m. Hence your battle will at most last 5 minutes.”

“Thanks.” Kilton smiled and looked at the commentator.

“Hm.” David only made a noise to reply.

“Alright, let the battle…begin!” the commentator smiled. The moment he said begin, his entire being vanished, leaving only the two participants.

“Sou!”

Kilton stood on his huge board, retreating, swiftly flying into the distance, as quick as lightning.

“Escaping?” David creased his eyebrows, his legs condensed incredibly about of energy and the sole of his feet oscillated as they released massive amounts of Shockwaves in the air, propelling him forwards, he became a beam of dark light, obviously faster than Kilton before.

The original size of the arena was a diameter of 30km. As time passed, it shrank more and more. With David and Kilton’s speed, in the blink of an eye they were already at the edges of the space.

“Now’s the time.”

Kilton could feel their distance closing, he suddenly turned and simultaneously David, who was rushing over decreased his speed as they grew dangerously close. Kilton’s eyes had a gleam of madness: “Go! Kill him!!!” The huge board beneath his feet shot out a silver light, this light wrapped itself around his fiery energy flow around. It moved autonomously and separated into 9 silver arrows, shooting at David at the same time.

Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!…

9 silver arrows!

It was like 9 shooting stars shooting suddenly and swiftly.

“Even though the blood origin law is powerful, it does have its weaknesses!” Kilton’s eyes were filled with a strong anticipation, one for victory, “That is its defense, it’s weakness is its defense!”

“Your power is only so much and you dare split it into 9?” David snorted coldly, “And you really think I have no methods for defend myself?”

David’s thoughts moved.

Strands of blood as thin as a thread instantly formed in mid air intertwining with each other as they weaved together like a net to form 16 crimson shields.

The surface of the shields, 8 of which were facing outside while the other 8 were facing inwards, revolving both internally and externally.

This move, an actual blood origin law technique. 

The 8 shields floated about his surroundings, the other 8 formed an outer layer.

Inside and outside, covered with shields which revolved about and moved up and down, with crimson light connecting them, an outrageous energy emanated from it. Infused with David’s deep comprehension of the blood origin laws, its defense was simply perfect. 

The 9 silver arrows shot over and the 16 shields slightly altered its speed, leaving no openings at all.𝒐𝒱𝓵xt.𝓬𝒐𝓂

“Dang, Dang Dang…” Clashes could be heard.
