Here, the lowest amount in the challenge matches is 100,000 Cosmic Crystals, and there are countless challenges with millions or even tens of millions. There are even a few that have hundreds of millions or even billions.

But Lin Zhen didn’t rashly challenge those worth billions.

That’s because those who could place billions of Cosmic Crystals for others to challenge were definitely not weak. Once in the Star System Arena, Lin Zhen never thought he was invincible.

Lin Zhen chose those with amounts in the tens of millions. He still had 30 million Cosmic Crystals in his hand. Leaving 5 million behind, he challenged an opponent with 25 million.

The challenger was at Star System Level 4. When he saw that his opponent was at the Black Hole Early Stage, he almost laughed himself to death.

“Ah… Hahahaha~! Little guy, aren’t you just playing with your parents’ money? You dare to take 25 million for a joke; be careful of getting spanked when you go home… Hahahaha!”

Lin Zhen’s face turned cold. This Martial Artist was simply an idiot. Who would joke with tens of millions of Cosmic Crystals? This guy was despicable.

Without saying a word, Lin Zhen made his move.

Although he was a Star System Level 4, he was far from being Lin Zhen’s opponent in terms of Star Power and techniques. Lin Zhen didn’t intend to kill him quickly either, and it turned into a massacre.

After stabbing the opponent 900 times, Lin Zhen finally killed him, venting his anger.

The 25 million quickly turned into 50 million, and Lin Zhen immediately found another match worth 50 million to challenge.

He had a feeling of alertness in his heart, as Xuan Jiang had threatened him before. Who knew what tricks he might pull? Lin Zhen had just arrived at the Star System Arena and needed to make as much money as possible. He would fight as many matches as he could in the early stages!

With Lin Zhen’s current strength, as long as he didn’t deliberately challenge those high-level Tier Nine Star System experts, it was challenging to find a suitable opponent in regular individual matches.

From 50 million to 100 million, then 200 million, 400 million, 800 million, and finally consecutive matches with 100 million to 200 million. After three hours, Lin Zhen had actually accumulated 4 billion Cosmic Crystals in his hand!

“Phew~! This is just too awesome!”

Lin Zhen was a bit excited. He had never made money at this rate before. He didn’t try for bigger matches; one with hundreds of millions was enough. If he continued like this, he would quickly reach 5 billion and buy more Fire Crystalstones for Flame’s second promotion.

“If everything goes smoothly, the day to resurrect Little Phoenix won’t be far off.”

“Maybe I can try to play a match worth 1 billion. That way, I can gather 5 billion directly.”

“Chris, help me find personal matches with over 1 billion and see how many there are.”

Soon, Chris listed the data, which showed hundreds of matches worth over 1 billion.

However, Lin Zhen found that the hosts of these matches worth more than 1 billion were all high-level Tier Nine Star System experts, and it was impossible to distinguish which one was easier to deal with or which one was harder.

If we’re talking about the most considerable number of Martial Artists in the Star System realm, it would undoubtedly be the Tier Nine Star System experts.

Out of 10,000 Tier Nine Star System experts, not even one might break through to the Star Domain. Many Martial Artists are stuck at this realm. They cannot become Domain Emperors, but they continue to practice. Tier Nine Star System experts have hundreds or thousands of years of experience, far beyond what Lin Zhen and other Martial Artists with less than a hundred years of practice can compare to.

Although the experts under a hundred years old are geniuses, they are not enough in the eyes of those old Tier Nine Star System experts.

“Anyway, I have to choose one to try. Let’s do this one.”

After searching for a while, Lin Zhen settled on a Tier Nine Star System expert.

But just as he was about to challenge, a designated challenge message suddenly arrived.

“Lin Zhen, I am Thunderstorm from the Hurricane Galaxy, and I challenge you now, one match worth 1 billion Cosmic Crystals. Do you dare to fight?”

“A designated challenge?”

Lin Zhen frowned slightly. Why would anyone specifically challenge him?

Without thinking, it must be Xuan Jiang’s doing. What was he up to?

After thinking about it, Lin Zhen declined the challenge. If it were usual, he wouldn’t mind trying, but it was a crucial moment. He was about to reach 5 billion Cosmic Crystals, and Lin Zhen didn’t want any unexpected complications.

Just after declining, the second designated challenge arrived.

“Fire Kirin Empire’s little bastard, I am Olinsman from the Tianheng Empire, and I challenge you now, one match worth 1 billion Cosmic Crystals. Do you dare to fight me?”

Lin Zhen declined again, and the third designated challenge arrived.

Just after declining, the fourth, fifth… they came in succession.

If these people challenged together, Lin Zhen could choose to reject them all collectively. However, they timed it very accurately. Each challenge arrived within a second of Lin Zhen’s previous rejection, making it apparent that they were together.

Lin Zhen didn’t even have time to choose a match; all his time was spent rejecting, rejecting, and rejecting again and again…

********

“Hahahaha~! This kid wants to compete with me? Since you dared to come to the Star System Arena, I won’t let you have a chance to challenge, and just now you managed to make a little profit while I was off guard. But from now on, you won’t get a single challenge, unless you accept our challenges, and the result will be your loss!”

Xuan Jiang laughed loudly while watching the challenge messages from his subordinates in the pool.

As a powerful figure in a small battle zone, Xuan Jiang had more than 100,000 highly skilled Tier Nine Star System experts under his command!

With just one command from him, these experts would take turns challenging, one per second, and it would still only be 3,600 per hour.

One challenge from each of his subordinates would be enough to keep Lin Zhen refusing for several days!

After a few rounds, even the strongest person would not be able to resist retreating, unless they dared to accept the challenge.

This method is very practical in the arena. Those who dare to offend the gods will not have any good results. They will be tormented until they cannot survive in the arena.

The only way to participate in the battle is through team fights. Only during team fights will the prompt show whether you will participate in the team fight or not, and individual information comes later. That is the only method.

And for the team battles, Xuan Jiang had already made arrangements.

********

After refusing more than a hundred times, Lin Zhen knew that trouble had arrived.

As long as he was in the arena, such challenges would never stop.

When the next challenger, a Martial Artist from the Pansi Empire named Ao Xiang, issued his challenge, Lin Zhen accepted it.

He could not refuse forever. As long as he wanted to continue in the arena, a battle was inevitable.

Winning would be great, but if he lost, Lin Zhen would also like to know where his gap stood compared to these veteran Tier Nine Star System Martial Artists.

The scene changed, and a Martial Artist from the Tianying tribe appeared in front of him, with wings stretching tens of meters long. Once spread out, they’d block out the sky, creating an incredibly powerful aura.

“Hahaha! You finally accepted, kid. Lord Xuan Jiang guessed right; you would definitely have to accept at some point. But I didn’t expect to be this lucky. Lord Xuan Jiang said that if I defeat you, all the proceeds will be mine. Lin Zhen, quickly hand over your billion Cosmic Crystals!”

Lin Zhen raised his hand, and the Yin-Yang Spear appeared, Lightning Wings emerged, and he transformed through Armorization!

Spiritual Evil Spirit Cone!

His spiritual power was released, and the opponent’s forehead flashed gold, successfully enduring it!

This was the first Martial Artist to withstand Lin Zhen’s Spiritual Evil Spirit Cone.

“Hahaha, kid! We’re not like you who got rich overnight. We are Martial Artists who have practiced steadily for thousands of years. Those with Cui Mang Rank spiritual power or below have at least high-grade, even top-quality, Mental Defense Artifacts. Your spiritual power is not bad, but don’t expect to break through my defenses!”

This person’s spiritual power had already reached the perfection of Sky Blue color, and with the high-grade Mental Defense Artifact, Lin Zhen’s Spiritual Evil Spirit Cone could not take effect.

Without waiting for Lin Zhen’s second move, the Tianying Martial Artist had already reached Lin Zhen.

With a huge swing of his wings, his speed had actually reached Sub-light Speed!

The weapon in his hand was also a spear that transformed into a carpet-bombing assault with no blind spots after a mere shake!

Immovable like a mountain!

Lin Zhen’s Star Power surged, and he resisted the opponent’s attack with Sub-light Speed defense!

Sub-light Speed is a concept, equivalent to ten thousand times the speed of sound.

This was an attack method second only to the speed of light, and this Martial Artist had actually mastered Sub-light Speed thanks to his talent, instantly forming a stalemate with Lin Zhen.

At such high speeds, no one could see how either of them made their moves, only sparks spraying out like raindrops.

At this point, Lin Zhen couldn’t even unleash methods like Domain and Spatial Slash.

Because it was too fast, he simply didn’t have time.

Moreover, the opponent’s Star Power was actually stronger than Lin Zhen’s. At this time, the only method was strength. Even if Lin Zhen had the slightest thought of using Time Stop, it would be too late. Once activated, it would be forcibly broken by the opponent’s superior Star Power!

Only stronger Star Power would be the key to victory!

After tens of thousands of instant attacks and defenses, Lin Zhen’s Star Power actually couldn’t keep up!

“Damn! This person’s Star Power must be more than two thousand more than mine, and I am completely suppressed by his speed, unable to counterattack!”

Only then did Lin Zhen realize the true strength of these veteran Tier Nine Martial Artists. They were stronger than him, about one-third stronger. Moreover, Lin Zhen believed that the opponent must have many more powerful moves that he had yet to use.

But Lin Zhen was not passive. Seeing that he was going to lose in this way, he simply sank his Dantian Qi in a sudden rush, allowing the opponent’s spear to pierce through his chest!

The last bit of Star Power, Time Stop!

Less than 0.1 seconds of pause, Lin Zhen exploded right in front of the Martial Artist!

The Tianying Martial Artist Ao Xiang’s Time Stop was interrupted momentarily, and he couldn’t retreat in time. Although his spear had killed Lin Zhen, he too was swallowed by Lin Zhen’s self-destruct at the last moment!

Both were destroyed!

In this battle, Lin Zhen lost, but he also won. Faced with an opponent whose strength was absolutely superior to his own, he decisively self-destructed, taking the opponent down with him, thus saving his billion Cosmic Crystals.

“You cunning little bastard, you won’t have this opportunity next time!” The Tianying Martial Artist roared angrily, his victory slipping away at the last moment, making him want to explode in rage.

On the other side, Lin Zhen left the arena and immediately received a challenge for the next battle.

Lin Zhen didn’t choose to accept or decline and instead sat down slowly.

He had roughly figured out the strength of these veteran Tier Nine Martial Artists, and there was no point in continuing to fight. He was waiting for the start of the team battle.
