165: World Talent Competition Rules!

“Panel!”

After showering, Guo Feng left his room, got into his car, activated autopilot, and then quickly brought up his panel!

Host: Guo Feng.

Exclusive Level: 22.

Assets: 35.95 million (still growing…)

Asset Increase: 56

Expenditure: 12102 / 33 million.

Physical Strength: 8330.05.

“Hmm, not bad. Exclusive Level 22, physical strength equivalent to Level 41.”

“During this time, my Onefold Lightning Strike Slash has increased to 7x amplification, and with the 2x amplification spirit charm, it can reach a full 9x amplification!”

“Moreover, I have already practiced Soaring Step to seven instances of void force exertion!”

“In these seven days, I spent five hours a day refining 5 Qi Swords, reaching a total of 45 Qi Swords. This consumed 45 spiritual energy primordial stones, but it seems the consumption will be even greater in the later stages!”

“The First Level Heavenly Gang Sword Formation has also been learned, and its power is truly not small!”

“It’s just that the Tiangang Sword Formation consumes a lot of energy too; I can only use it three times in one go. But thankfully, the Tiangang Sword Formation lasts for a decent amount of time, making it more cost-effective than Onefold Lightning Strike Slash when calculated.”

“Wow, I’m so strong!”

Guo Feng suddenly realized that his progress in these seven days was truly significant, and his combat power had increased by another notch compared to when he fought Fujita Gō.

He reviewed his current situation, then sped up and arrived at the Genius Camp Building!

Soon, he arrived at the administrative hall.

Most of the Genius Class members had already arrived.

“Boss!”

“Guo Feng!”

Lin Changyun and Wenren Tutu smiled and greeted him.

Guo Feng greeted crew.

Lin Changyun quickly lowered his voice and said, “Our top priority now is to prepare for the World Genius Competition. I hear that not only are the rewards for the World Genius Competition very high, worth tens of billions.”

“Moreover, our Genius Class will also reward a massive amount of points!”

“In addition, the higher-ups have issued a strict order: the first World Genius Competition concerns national interests and future international standing, so the first place must be ours, Huaxia’s!”

He was indeed very well-informed, and he spoke to Guo Feng with an excited expression.

It wasn't just him; others had also received the news to varying degrees and were all very excited.

“That’s natural.”

Guo Feng nodded, “The first World Genius Competition is definitely very important, even determining the future international order.”

He waved his hand, “However, every country is aiming for first place, so the competition will inevitably be fierce!”

As he was speaking, he saw Zhao Long in the corner.

Zhao Long looked solemn and somewhat aloof.

It seemed that the recent events had dealt him a significant blow.

But his aura seemed to have grown much stronger, placing him among the top ranks in the Genius Class.

Just then, Yuchi Zhan led a group of powerful men and women onto the high platform.

“Quiet.”

Yuchi Zhan waved his hand, and everyone immediately fell silent.

He said, “Everyone should already know about the World Genius Competition; the mentors will explain it in more detail to you later.”

“I will only tell you that the World Genius Competition is extremely important for both individuals and the nation.”

“You are the geniuses among geniuses, so first place must be born among you.”

He paused, then continued, “The first World Genius Competition is a team competition. Five people per team! Among them, the five permanent members of the United Nations each have a seeded team, which will directly enter the 32-team group stage without needing to play ranking matches.”

“The remaining teams must play in preliminaries, where 27 other teams will be selected from around the world based on a point system to enter the World Group Stage!”

“And our Huaxia, in addition to the seeded team, has 5 preliminary spots.”

As he spoke, he looked at everyone, “Therefore, the seeded team is very important. And our Genius Class has an opportunity to compete for a seeded team spot.”

Yuchi Zhan’s words made it clear.

The seeded team is very important.

Guaranteed entry into the group stage!

It can avoid many unforeseen risks and also save some energy.

“An opportunity to compete for a seeded team spot? Competing with whom?”

Guo Feng raised an eyebrow, somewhat confused.

Because the people in the Genius Class were all top-tier geniuses selected.

Who could compete with the Genius Class?

Could it be that some unknown forces were still hidden?

“Alright, from now on, twenty people will be selected from among you for special training, and then five people will be chosen from these twenty to form the seeded team, and one group will enter the preliminary teams.”

Yuchi Zhan then said, “As for the others, they either form their own teams to play in the qualifying rounds, or they give up on this World Genius Competition.”

“Twenty people?”

“How are they selected?”

Everyone also grew anxious.

From 101 people, twenty are selected, and then ten are selected from those.

This is an opportunity to make a name for oneself and to obtain generous rewards.

No one wanted to miss out.

“These twenty people were internally selected by us based on your performance in the last group mission and individual comprehensive evaluations.”

“The list will be released shortly.”

Yuchi Zhan said, waving his hand, “Of course, if any of you are not convinced by anyone, you can initiate a challenge. The winner advances, the loser retreats!”

“The Genius Class is that simple and direct!”

“Moreover, you can initiate a challenge at any time!”

After he finished speaking, he pointed to the several powerful men and women beside him, “These are your mentors for this training; all are Level 45 or above, each with their own specialties.”

“And I!”

He paused, “Am the head mentor! If anyone disrespects a mentor, or is not convinced by a mentor’s strength, come challenge me to a duel!”

After he finished speaking, his gaze fell on Guo Feng.

He also had a headache.

This guy, Guo Feng, at Level 20-something, had already cut down several powerhouses above Level 45.

An ordinary mentor probably couldn't keep him in check.

“Uh…”

Guo Feng felt targeted, shrugged, and mumbled, “I’m not a bad person, why are you guarding against me like a thief? Am I going to cut down a mentor for no reason?”

“Haha.”

Lin Changyun, who was nearby, couldn’t help but laugh when he heard him.

You’re not a bad person!

But, you’re not a good person either!

“Alright, the list has been issued. Students on the list, gather at the training ground on the seventh floor.”

“Those who want to challenge can also come over!”

After Yuchi Zhan finished speaking, he left directly through the side door with the mentors.

“I’ve been selected.”

“I’ve been selected too!”

Wenren Tutu and Lin Changyun looked at their phones and smiled.

Guo Feng also checked the Genius Class APP backend.

He was indeed on the list.

He also noticed that Zhao Long was prominently listed.

He shook his head, then went to the seventh floor with Wenren Tutu and the others.

The training ground on the seventh floor was very large.

In addition to Yuchi Zhan and those few mentors, there were also the twenty selected members of the Genius Class who were on the list.

There were also a few challengers who came over.

Guo Feng took a look, besides Wenren Tutu, Lin Changyun, and Zhao Long, there were also Li Yanhua, Shao Jingting, and other top-ranked individuals.

Yu Zefeng from Gan Province and Wu Zhao from the capital, who had previously challenged Guo Feng.

These people had also made great progress during this period; they were only Level 20-something before, and now they were all Level 30.

The remaining thirteen people also had strong auras and had performed well in the 77 Special Operation.

“Alright, since you dare to challenge, then choose the people you want to challenge.”

Yuchi Zhan said to those few challengers.

“If you just challenge us whenever you want, won’t we lose face?”

Guo Feng then stepped forward and said, looking at Yuchi Zhan, “Mentor, why don’t we set a rule? They can challenge us. But if they lose, they must give ten spiritual energy primordial stones to the challenged person.”

“Okay.”

Yuchi Zhan nodded in agreement.

The twenty people also nodded, looking at Guo Feng with gratitude.

Guo Feng finally did something humane.

But Guo Feng’s next sentence made their mouths twitch.

Guo Feng was heard saying, “Look, I fought for your rights. From now on, if you win and earn spiritual energy primordial stones, you must give me half. Otherwise, I’ll spar with you every day.”

“Nima…”

“Are you a devil?”

Everyone almost vomited blood.

No wonder Guo Feng was so kind!

They couldn’t help but look at Yuchi Zhan for help.

Yuchi Zhan said calmly, “What Guo Feng said is fine. Of course, you can defeat him. If you defeat him, what he said doesn’t count!”

Everyone wailed in their hearts!

Guo Feng’s identity as the Great Demon King was completely established.

And at this moment, Yuchi Zhan waved his hand: “Let the challenges begin!”
