Chapter 531 Exaggerated Attrition Rate
At this time.
A fair-skinned young man with long hair walked over, extended his hand to Xiao Weiqing, and introduced himself:
"Ze comes from the Primordial Civilization."
Surprisingly, Ze's voice sounded somewhat childish, suggesting he was quite young.
Xiao Weiqing was slightly taken aback, then smiled and extended his hand, saying, "Xiao Weiqing comes from the Blue Star Civilization."
"I just heard them say that you come from the Land of Conception, is that true?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yu frowned slightly.
Xiao Weiqing maintained his smile and said, "Yes."
Ze nodded and said, "You are very strong. I look forward to fighting you."
Done.
Ze turned and left, walking to the very edge of the crowd. He didn't look at anyone else, as if, apart from Xiao Weiqing, these people weren't worth his attention.
"Tch, brat, so arrogant."
Ji Yu snorted coldly.
"You know him?" Xiao Weiqing asked.
"I just heard them say that the Celestial Beginning Civilization, the Elliots, are royalty, with a very noble status, and they're said to be underage."
"Still a minor?"
Ji Yu explained, "That's what they say, but the definition of adulthood is vague in the universe and varies from civilization to civilization and race to race."
"We Buren aliens take 60 years to reach adulthood according to the cosmic year. By that calculation, I'm not an adult yet."
"The Elliotts come of age at 38, and that guy is 34. What's he pretending for?" Ji Yu clearly didn't like Yu Ze.
"But he's younger than you. I remember your profile says you're 46, which is a whole twelve years older than him according to our planet's age system."
Ji Yu's face darkened, and he said irritably, "Can't you use a different algorithm?"
"Oh?"
"How should it be calculated?"
"He will become an adult in 4 years, and I will become an adult in 14 years. By any measure, I am younger than him."
Ji Yu explained.
"Alright."
Xiao Weiqing shook his head, not wanting to argue with Ji Yu about it.
"And you? Judging from your voice and appearance, you're definitely an adult."
Ji Yu asked, clearly hoping to find some comfort in these questions.
Xiao Weiqing laughed and said, "We humans on Earth reach adulthood at 18, and I've been an adult for a long time."
Ji Yu's expression immediately softened. "Your file says you're 26 years old. If we convert that to our Buren Star people's way of counting, you're... 86 years old. You're older than my uncle."
"..."
Xiao Weiqing shook his head helplessly. There was no point in calculating it this way, because the actual cultivation time was real.
Moreover.
It took Xiao Weiqing less than eight years to go from transcendent awakening to Star Lord, which is one of the reasons why Hendrick is optimistic about Xiao Weiqing.
Hi, congratulations!
A pleasant voice came from behind the two of them.
Xiao Weiqing turned around, and the person who came was Isa.
Her performance was good, under 55 seconds, which was better than Weiss's ranking, and she has secured her place in the next stage of the assessment.
Congratulations!
Xiao Weiqing nodded.
"Where are your two companions?"
Isa said helplessly, "I was just eliminated in your round."
"Yeah?"
"That's a real pity," Xiao Weiqing said.
Isabella asked curiously, "You really think it's a pity?"
"Yeah, there's no chance to spar with that Chris anymore."
Isa's eyes widened, and she slowly said, "You...you really hold a grudge."
Xiao Weiqing denied it, saying, "I don't hold grudges."
Isa pouted, looking at her with an expression that said, "You'd be a fool to believe that."
"gather!"
A loud voice rang out.
The final round of assessments has ended; a few people entered the crowd, and a few left.
This is the end.
331 star lords have been identified and qualified for the next stage of assessment.
On the horizon, a train approaches silently.
"Walk."
The burly man acted swiftly and decisively, leading everyone onto the train. The train started moving and headed back in the direction they had come from, seemingly heading back into the city.
Through the car window.
Xiao Weiqing saw three huge spaceships parked inside the manor.
"They will travel to the lower three heavens."
Ji Yu looked at the spaceship and explained.
"Is that settled?"
Xiao Weiqing hadn't expected that what the burly man meant by no next stage of assessment was actually this: those who were eliminated were directly assigned jobs.
"This has always been the case in the Holy Land of Cloud Ruins."
"If you don't want to, you don't have to go. If you don't go, you will forever lose the opportunity to join the Holy Land."
"Pretty domineering," Xiao Weiqing said.
Ji Yu nodded, agreeing with Xiao Weiqing's statement.
"That may be true, but the Cloud Ruins Holy Land has the resources to do so," Isa said.
"Where are we going now?" Xiao Weiqing asked.
"The first assessment is over. More than 3 people remain to proceed to the next stage of assessment," Isa replied. "Wait a moment, you will face the second assessment."
"What is the second test?"
"Round-robin tournament".
At some point, Ze appeared beside the three and joined the discussion.
Do you know the rules?
Ze sat down and said, "3 people. Based on the ranking of the first round of assessments, each person will need to fight two rounds, totaling 20 battles. Ninety-nine percent of the people will be eliminated based on their performance. The remaining people will enter the subsequent assessments."
"Ninety-nine percent?"
Xiao Weiqing was startled. Wouldn't that mean only 300 people would be left?
"In the arena round-robin tournament, as long as we successfully stay, we can enter the middle three heavens, which means that even the worst result will allow us to enter the fourth heavens." Ji Yu's words contained a hint of excitement.
"Sigh, you guys are strong enough to be guaranteed entry into the middle three heavens, but it's going to be tough for me. If I'm unlucky, I'll have to go find my companions." Isa said with a bitter face.
None of the three responded.
Isa's first test score was 55 seconds, which is considered very low and she will likely be eliminated.
During the discussion.
The spaceship slowed down.
Xiao Weiqing looked outside. They were in the city, with more than a dozen trains suspended in mid-air and others on their way.
"arrive."
Ze said softly.
The three of them followed Ze's gaze and looked down.
Below was a huge... playground, or rather, a playground. Xiao Weiqing was somewhat surprised. The playground was estimated to be over ten kilometers long and wide, and it had twenty-five square arenas.
"Walk."
"Let's go down."
The burly man led the group down and was the first to arrive at the stands.
As soon as they stepped onto the playground, everyone's expression changed.
"My body feels so heavy."
The burly man said, "The gravity here is the same as in the Fourth Heaven. If you can't even withstand this, it means you don't have the strength to enter the Fourth Heaven."
Xiao Weiqing stepped onto the stands and adapted instantly. On his way to the guiding star, he experienced the gravity of the sixth heaven and fought with Hendrick. This level of gravity could not affect him.
Ze, who was standing to the side, quickly adjusted himself, earning Xiao Weiqing's respect.
As for Ji Yu and Isa, their expressions were a bit off; they probably need some time to adjust.
Xiao Weiqing looked around.
The arena is nearly two kilometers long. Under such gravity, the speed of a Star Lord Realm expert is estimated to be only about one kilometer per second, which is enough for these Star Lord Realm experts to fight freely.
Without much thought, Xiao Weiqing sat down and waited quietly.
Ze, Ji Yu, and Isa sat down, and none of them spoke, creating a calm before the storm.
