Chapter 178: Breaking Through 50,000
“Hey! Did you hear? Immortal Sect won 100 consecutive victories. Most importantly, they are the send members who can single-handedly take on an entire team.”
“It hasn’t even been a day since their first match. Even the team from Yun Country hasn’t been this fast!”
“My goodness! Is Xia Country’s martial arts really that strong?”
“I think only the Yun Country’s team can defeat Immortal Sect.”
…
Ever since Immortal Sect participated in the elimination competition, people worldwide had been talking about them.
The 11th floor’s preparation area.
Wang Zhixing held his tablet and watched as the Immortal Sect’s points reached 1000 points. Then, a smile appeared behind his mask.
“Next is to charge into the top 100.”
After they accumulated 1000 points, the competition system became slightly different from before.
There were two types of matches.
One type was a random match-up by the system, and the other allowed the participants to choose the team they wished to challenge.
The rules for the former were similar to those for matches between teams with less than 1000 points.
The latter was self-explanatory but excluded teams with less than 1,000 points.
Moreover, the difference in points between the two teams could not be more than two times that of the team’s points.
Wang Zhixing currently had 1000 points, so they could only challenge teams that had 2000 points or less.
The points earned or lost for matches were no longer 10 points. Instead, they were divided into three grades——50, 100, 200.
The team could choose one of these three levels.
In addition, the rules of the challenge were mandatory. Once a team proposes a challenge, one must accept it. Otherwise, it would be deemed a defeat, and 200 points would be deducted right away.
After reading the rules, Wang Zhixing began to pick the teams.
Even though they had fought 100 matches, their experience didn’t increase much.
The teams with less than 1000 points were too weak.
Those who had wanted to lower their points to attack the Immortal Sect became timid after seeing their performance.
Outsiders only felt that the Immortal Sect was very strong, but as experienced martial artists, they knew how terrifying it was.
After 100 battles, Immortal Sect had basically ended their matches within 10 seconds.
Others didn’t think this was considered strong. They believed the Immortal Sect to be in a completely different dimension and that only the top 100 teams had a chance of winning them.
But the chances were slim.
Now that Immortal Sect had accumulated 1000 points, the subsequent teams at the back started praying that they would not be chosen.
Certain teams that were ranked in the top 100, especially those stuck at ranks 99 and 100, felt even more anxious.
Currently, Wang Zhixing frowned while doing some math. He was calculating how many matches they had to win before they could rank in the top 100.
“Currently, the teams ranked in the top 100 have around 100,000 points. With 200 points per match, we need to win around 500 matches.
“We’ll take the duration of one match to be 30 minutes, which would take about 11 days without rest.
“There’s still plenty of time then.”
Wang Zhixing then examined the teams. After spending about an hour, he had a rough idea of the strength of these teams.
“50,000 points is a watershed. We have to make it up there quickly.
“Since that’s the case, then let’s continue with our previous strategy and get this done quickly.”
Wang Zhixing thought for a moment and then planned his subsequent strategy.
Just as they were about to pick a team to challenge, a staff member ran over.
“Professor!” The staff member greeted him with a smile.
Wang Zhixing thought to himself that there must be a reason why the staff had come at this time.
“Is something the matter?” Wang Zhixing asked.
The staff member bowed and said, “Professor, someone is looking for you.”
Wang Zhixing thought to himself,?a person who can get a staff member to invite me must have some status. It’s probably a business that wants my team to be their spokesperson or something.
Such situations were very common here.
This was because this competition attracted a lot of attention. Some teams that made a name for themselves would be approached by different businesses.
Because fame was related to popularity, and popularity represented money, the organizations naturally would not let the opportunity to earn money slip away.
Wang Zhixing thought for a moment, then said, “Tell the people outside that we are currently focusing all our energy on the competition and will not accept any invitations from the outside world for the time being.”
“Mm, okay!” The staff member had no objections. He was only here to pass on a message. Whether Wang Zhixing agreed to meet them or not was none of his business.
At the same time.
There were five or six people standing outside the passageway leading to the preparation area. They were looking in the direction of the preparation area with anxious expressions as if they were waiting for some news.
If Wang Zhixing were present, he would definitely be surprised because he recognized some of these people.
These people were from Xia Country’s martial arts world.
When the martial arts world in Xia country heard that there was a Xia Country team participating in the elimination competition, they immediately sent people over.
Gu Hongtao from the Flag Mountain Martial Arts Academy was among them.
The reason was that he had overseas experience and was fluent in foreign languages. Most importantly, he was a Great Grandmaster.
There was definitely no problem in having him lead the group.
Gu Hongtao had mixed feelings on the way here.
Initially, he was still worried that Xia Country’s team would be completely destroyed. However, it was obvious that his worry was unnecessary. Instead, he was shocked time and time again.
They had won 100 matches in a row and had challenged the opponent’s team single-handedly each time. His shock was simply indescribable.
As a Great Grandmaster, Gu Hongtao had a general understanding of the martial arts world in his country.
One had to know that the age of the participants in this Martial Arts Conference could not be more than 40 years old. Judging from the capabilities displayed by Wang Zhixing’s group, they were at least Grandmasters.
Reaching the level of Grandmaster before the age of 40 made them rare geniuses in the martial arts world.
Even in the holy land of martial arts, Hundred Thousand Mountains, there were very few families among the 36 martial arts families that had a Grandmaster younger than 40 years old.
But this time, ten geniuses had suddenly appeared, and most importantly, their identities were unknown.
This had an extraordinary impact on Xia Country’s martial arts world.
Therefore, Gu Hongtao’s group were very anxious to know the identities of the ten people from the Immortal Sect.
…
After a while, the staff member returned.
Gu Hongtao frowned. He only saw one staff member returning, which meant that there was no chance for him to meet the Immortal Sect.
“Elder Gu, I’m very sorry!”
The staff member said helplessly.
He then repeated Wang Zhixing’s words.
“Alright, I understand.” Gu Hongtao sighed, feeling a little disappointed.
“Elder Gu, don’t be anxious. The Immortal Sect is here for the qualification of the Martial Arts Conference.
“With their fighting style, they should be able to enter the top 100 very quickly.
“Why don’t you stay here for now? We will also actively communicate with them as well.
“What do you think?”
Gu Hongtao thought about it. He could only do that now.
…
Time passed slowly.
The elimination competition was in full swing. Of course, the Immortal Sect was still the focus of attention.
Their matches were definitely a feast for the eyes.
However, with one instant kill after another, the audience had grown bored.
As the competition had lost its drive, they could only watch as the members of the Immortal Sect killed everything instantly.
But even so, everyone was still looking forward to the Immortal Sect being destroyed.
Time flew past.
After four days of challenges, the Immortal Sect broke through to 50,000 points.
It had only been five days since they registered themselves.
This speed was simply unbelievable.
Now, the teams at the bottom of the rankings were especially flustered.
Originally, they had stopped fighting to recuperate. After all, they had a lot of accumulated points, and they were strong. The teams below couldn’t threaten them, so they could rest easy.
However, the situation was different with the Immortal Sect.
From the Immortal Sect’s perspective, those teams were all EXP[1], and they went for them indiscriminately.
Hence, those teams that were ranked near the bottom of the top 100 rankings frantically searched for teams to accumulate points these few days, wanting to stabilize their position.
For a time, the entire competition was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
…
The preparation area of the 11th level.
After Wang Zhixing’s group broke through the 50,000 point mark, they did not immediately find a team to challenge. Instead, they held a meeting.
This was because 50,000 points was a dividing line. At this stage, an individual’s strength was basically comparable to a first-rate martial artist.
This was a good thing for everyone.
In the past few days, they had been wiping out their opponents instantly. Everyone’s fighting spirit was almost gone.
“Everyone, the teams we are challenging will be vastly different from the ones before. I hope that everyone will not underestimate their opponents. It’s time to bring out your fighting spirit,” Wang Zhixing said seriously.
“Dad, will we continue going solo?” Wang Jiajun asked.
“Yes!” Wang Zhixing nodded.
Wang Zhixing thought,?although the strength of first-rate martial artists isn’t weak, they still aren’t strong enough for a one on one battle.
Since they wanted to increase his combat experience, they had to feel pressured.
No one had any objections.
Thus, Wang Zhixing began to select opponents.
After 50,000 points, more than 90% of them were genetically modified people.
Their physical strength, speed, and defense were a class above the previous fighters, and they were especially resistant to beatings. Fighting with them should be very interesting.
Wang Zhixing quickly selected his opponent.
And this time, it was his turn to go on.
…
At the same time, something big happened in Yun Country, which was next to Xia Country.
