Chapter 198 - 147: The Competition Begins, Yang Zhenyun’s Bet, 5 Consecutive Wins!

Chapter 198: Chapter 147: The Competition Begins, Yang Zhenyun’s Bet, 5 Consecutive Wins!

A month has swiftly passed by.

On this day, within the Cultivation Room, Lu Sheng slowly opened his eyes, and a sharp glow burst out from them.

"The grand competition... has arrived!"

At the moment Lu Sheng’s voice dropped.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

A deep drumbeat instantly reverberated throughout the entire Life Factions, and everyone could hear this deep drumbeat clearly.

The moment Lu Sheng heard it, his figure flickered and appeared in the sky above Wuling Star.

Not only Lu Sheng, but other Life Factions students on Wuling Star also came out, including several nearby planets where students resided; one by one, the figures of Life Factions students emerged.

"The once-in-thirty-years grand competition has begun. I wonder who will make it into the top one hundred this time."

"Exactly, but rather than the top one hundred, I’m more interested in the competition between the senior students of the sixth tier. Senior Liu Qian has broken through to the sixth tier. I wonder if the ranking of our senior brothers and sisters will change!"

Voices filled with excitement about the faction’s grand competition resonated.

Amidst the discussions, an elderly voice directly overshadowed everyone else’s.

"Today... is the day of the faction’s grand competition!"

With the appearance of this elderly voice, an old figure appeared in the central area of the three Plant Dyson Spheres.

Surrounded by radiant auspicious lights, faint sounds of phoenixes and dragons were heard intermittently.

Behind the old man, four figures stood respectfully, facing all the members of the Life Factions.

"It’s Mentor Gumo and the four senior students!"

Someone exclaimed.

"The last time I saw Mentor Gumo was during his last teaching session. How many years has it been? Only important events like the faction’s grand competition would bring the mentor to appear!"

"Indeed, it’s Mentor Gumo. Just standing there, he gives off an invincible aura. Is this the power of a Divine Soul Realm Martial Artist?"

The crowd looked at Gumo and the four sixth-tier students with fervent gazes.

Even Lu Sheng looked at Gumo.

Under everyone’s gaze, Gumo waved his hand lightly, and a mysterious energy spread out from his body.

The Heaven-Reaching Vine, forming the Dyson Sphere, extended numerous tendrils at this moment, spreading toward the nearby Cosmic Void.

Eventually, the tendrils reached several nearby valueless planets, wrapping around them completely. Under the power of the Heaven-Reaching Vine, these valueless planets fused together, forming a huge combat platform.

Seeing this, a trace of astonishment flashed in Lu Sheng’s eyes, "What kind of technique is this, to be able to fuse planets!"

Even if they were valueless planets, such a method was beyond the capabilities of fourth or fifth-tier practitioners.

"The venue for this grand competition... will be on these planets!"

Gumo stroked his beard and smiled slightly.

"I have spread the Heaven-Reaching Vine throughout these planets. Participants can fight without worrying about killing their peers. If there is any danger to life, the Heaven-Reaching Vine will naturally save them."

"Now... all students, enter the field!"

Gumo’s voice was heard clearly in everyone’s ears.

In an instant, numerous figures turned into rainbows or bolts of lightning, flying toward the combat platform formed by the Heaven-Reaching Vine.

Lu Sheng took a deep breath, and a giant pillar emerged, lifting Lu Sheng and sending him towards the combat platform.

Soon, Lu Sheng stepped onto the combat platform. Accompanied by a flicker of green light, as his vision cleared again, he found himself on a smaller platform.

And beneath Lu Sheng’s platform, there were many more, totaling several tens of thousands.

Outside these platforms were the students who did not participate in the grand competition, already circling the entire combat platform.

Tendrils of the Heaven-Reaching Vine extended, creating numerous screens, projecting the scenes from each platform onto them.

"Matching start?"

Suddenly, a gentle voice rang in Lu Sheng’s ears, surprising him slightly.

Because, apart from the combat platform, Lu Sheng saw no other structures, yet this gentle voice echoed in his ears.

It was due to this voice that Lu Sheng recalled the information Du Bai had given him about the faction’s grand competition.

The matching mechanism of the grand competition is based on entry time, age, and win rate.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Sheng said, "Start matching!"

This time, no one responded to Lu Sheng anymore. Taking advantage of this time, Lu Sheng began to observe the situation outside the combat platform.

After a round of observation, Lu Sheng found that the onlookers were mostly third-tier students of the Life Factions, as well as some unmotivated individuals or those unable to participate for other reasons.

As for the four sixth-tier senior students, they did not enter the competition but were observing from the outside.
