Chapter 602: Chapter 384 Restart the Elemental Era!_3

As the students were making various guesses, a broadcast was heard in the hall:

[Please, all contestants, quickly take your seats at the designated teleportation locations...]

[Please, all...]

With the system broadcast going off, the students started to move sporadically before finally sitting down. Ji Xie, although irritated that Lu Ran had won and left without giving her a chance for revenge or satisfaction, obviously prioritized the invention competition at hand.

"Let’s go." At that moment, Lu Ran comfortably sat in the teleportation pod, listening to the countdown for teleportation beside his ear...

[300... 299... 298...]

Five minutes later!

Lu Ran’s entire body was enveloped in a shining light and he disappeared from the teleportation hall.

At the same time, his figure appeared in an experimental field overgrown with withered grass and unimaginably vast.

Apart from the boundless experimental field, there was also a giant pupil in the sky, almost making Lu Ran believe it was the "Eye of the Evil God".

But in reality,...

[Species]: Ultimate Space

[Attribute]: Machinery

[Species Level]: Semi-Legend

[Growth Level]: Level 92

[Introduction]: A space-type Mechanical Life developed by the Star-Moon Republic, capable of functions such as combat and research, it can watch over every action of millions of life forms within its body with its Ultimate Eye.

"Semi-Legendary creation, alright..." Lu Ran shrugged his shoulders, worthy of the most powerful era of humans.

......

At the same time, tens of thousands of contestants entered the Mechanical Secret Realm·Ultimate Space.

Through live streaming from the Ultimate Eye, the actions of all the contestants were now broadcast on the official website of the "College Students’ Invention Competition," with tens of thousands of live streaming rooms broadcasting the status of each participant simultaneously.

The audience, who had been waiting outside the live streaming rooms, put on their mechanical glasses the moment the live streams were available. They immersed themselves as if on scene, like deities with a first-person perspective, their sights entered the Ultimate Space, closely watching the contestants.

Popular contestants like Lu Ran, who had done no promotion before participating, attracted a massive audience to their live streams, while those who were less known or nearly there to fill numbers had virtually zero attention.

However, these details were inconsequential, as the "Super Artificial Intelligence: Ultimate Space Life" itself was keeping an eye on every participant. It would absolutely impartially rank each contestant’s invention achievements.

Even if initially overlooked, as long as the invention achievements were impressive enough, they would eventually be arranged in the upper echelons of the rankings by the Ultimate Space and then draw significant attention.

Subsequently, with the live broadcast replay, the audiences who missed the dark horses could watch the entire display process from beginning to end.

Outside.

The invention competition continued.

Teachers from prominent universities, mechanists from various companies, and experts from diverse fields selected as judges did not enter any specific live streams right away.

Instead, they all focused on a real-time ranking, waiting for the judgment of the "Ultimate Space."

The ranking started off blank.

After a minute or two, the faster exhibitors made their way onto the ranking list.

The allowed showcasing time for research achievements was 30 minutes; hence, the initial rankings would be decided after this period.

Although those two minutes were not indicative of much, when leaders from the schools saw their students in the top ten, they couldn’t help but smile.

[Capital Mechanical University, Li Xingyao, Research Invention: Hidden Dragon Armor, Currently Ranked 4th! Display Status: Completed.]

"Fourth place, fourth place, wonder if he can hold onto it till the end!"

At Capital Mechanical University, Principal Deng, Principal Fu, and other officials were delighted to see Li Xingyao’s ranking.

[Three Stars Mechanical University, Lace, Research Invention: Blue-eyed Black Dragon Mechanical Evolution Armor, Evolution Failed, Contestant Eliminated! Display Status: Completed.]

Of course, while some were rejoicing, others were in despair. Some contestants carrying their inventions failed to display them successfully and were directly eliminated by the Ultimate Space, their names falling to the very bottom of the rankings.

Time... ticked away gradually.

The contestants at the forefront of the rankings came primarily from elite students of well-known universities such as Star-Moon Science and Technology University, Capital Mechanical University, National Aerospace University, and National Defense Mechanical University.

First Place: National Aerospace University, Shi Yuhang, Research Invention: Void Battle Dress (When mechanists wear this battle dress, even with no Pet Beast assistance, they can move for some time in the chaotic flows of space fissures and use the dress’s space abilities to tear through the disordered space and escape to safety).

In the cosmos, space fissures and turbulent flows are most severe. Exploring the cosmos is extremely dangerous, and currently, the value of this Void Battle Dress is rated as the highest by Ultimate Space.

The audience, from the first-person perspective, watched the entire process of Shi Yuhang risking his life while wearing the Void Battle Dress, tearing open space, moving through the turbulent flows like a fish, and then returning to safety.

Second Place: National Defense Mechanical University, Aitan, Research Invention: Crystal Energy Protection Device (With just a sixth-level Water Attribute energy, it can protect against energy attacks of a standard seventh-level).

This device is also quite remarkable, equivalent to a Level 60 Water Attribute Pet Beast, defending against the attack of any Level 70 Pet Beast. It’s conceivable that some cities along the coast might use this technology for arena defense and coastal security.
