1449 Can You Give Some Chance to the Others?
Following the start of the elimination round, countless spectators were glued to the ten giant stone monuments.
The ten steles were dotted with names and rankings, proving that the contestants had already started hunting star beasts and earning points.
Similarly, the situation within the ten forbidden zones was being broadcast live on all platforms, allowing the audience to clearly understand what was going on.
However, if anyone was trying to watch a candidate in particular, they would have to search for the person on their own.
The live broadcast was fixed on a specific area, not to specific candidates.
The popular ones could get more screen time, but the rest would only appear in the paranomic view.
Surprisingly, the live feed from below the sea depths in Zone 1 was also operational. The Virtual Universe Corporation was impressive.
Without a doubt, the crown prince had the most screen time. He was at Zone 1. A dark blue layer of light was flowing around him, pushing away the seawater and allowing him to ride on the currents like Poseidon.
The sea beasts were frightened by his aura and wanted to escape. But, even though the prince didn’t take action, the seawater was compressed, resulting in a massacre.
His points started climbing.
The crown prince ranked first for Zone 1.
Points: 3250
“The crown prince is powerful. He’s already killed many low-tier star beasts, just half an hour into the match!”
“Long live the crown prince!”
“The crown prince will be the number one for Zone 1!”
“Crown prince, can we make babies together?”
“The person above, please go away. The crown prince is mine. My god, the crown prince is so handsome”
“B*tch!”
Most of the audience in the live chat platform were attracted by the crown prince. They felt their blood boil with excitement as they watched him killing sea beasts.
Without a doubt, the young noble would definitely be the no.1 of Zone 1.
At the same time, some were searching for Wang Teng’s name on the stone plate for Zone 1.
Wang Teng’s initial ranking was way behind, but one could always find him if they put in the effort.
“No. 1,765,891? Why is it so low?”
“His start wasn’t very good!”
“It’s just the start. What’s the hurry!”
“Anyway, why did he send four clones into the other four zones?”
“I think he’s trying to evade the Parkers. I saw them staring at him.”
“You can’t kill participants, right?”
“You can’t, but that doesn’t mean you can’t snatch their prey!”
“Are you saying that the Parkers have their eyes set on Wang Teng?”
“Sigh, if that’s the case, Wang Teng is in a tough spot.”
Just then, a few special images were abruptly shown on the live broadcast platforms. Five screens were combined and placed next to each other.
It was Wang Teng!
Wang Teng was in all five images.
On one screenWang Teng was slaughtering sea beasts deep in the ocean. No Force fluctuations were seen around him, but he kept on traveling in those waters like an agile fish.
Wherever he moved, all the sea beasts rushing to attack him turned into blood mist.
In the second imagehe strode on the snow-covered ground with a battle sword in hand. The once white snow had turned crimson around him, dead star beasts dotting the ground.
Wang Teng stepped on the blood and walked through the snowfield, to then disappear in the horizon.
The camera kept following him.
On the third screen the young hero delved into a poisonous, grayish-green mist while completely unaffected.
A star beast sprung out from the dangerous mist. It was a grotesque toad with pustules covering its body. The creature hurled its long tongue, wanting to stab Wang Teng’s heart.
The latter reached out and pointed forward. Vines flew out and entangled the toad, then fiercely constricted; the toad instantly turned into a pile of rotten flesh. Its blue-green blood was splattered all over, landing on the ground and trees, emitting sizzling sounds.
However, the blood didn’t land on the young man. He stepped deeper into the mist and disappeared.
The fourth scene showed Wang Teng traveling with the wind as a storm unleashed its fury around him. Green wind blades swept out and slit the incoming star beasts, turning them into minced meat. It was a gory scene.
The last screen depicted the earthling candidate stroll through a sea of lightning. Bolts as thick as a person’s arm landed on him, forming sparks around him, while his body remained unscathed.
A lightning-element star beast leaped out and bared fangs at him. However, he lifted a hand, and the lightning turned into a weapon that killed the star beasts.
Five images!
Five different Wang Tengs!
The images were like illusions, unreal and magical.
Which was the real one? Which was fake?
Or were they all real?
Silence!
Dead silence!
All the spectators outside the Battle Planet and the audience logged to the live chat platform were at a loss for words. They widened their eyes, awed and astonished.
No one knew how to articulate their emotions.
Even the heaven stage and universe stage warriors were having trouble processing what they saw.
Someone finally asked after some time, “Those are all Wang Tengs?”
“I think they’re all him!”
“Didn’t he make four clones and send them to four different zones? I think he didn’t do it to escape from the Parkers. He’s doing it to compete in all four zones!”
“You can do this?”
Everyone gasped as they considered the idea. They were overcome with incredulity.
“He’s crazy!”
“Wang Teng must be crazy!”
“What is he thinking? Why participate in five zones during the elimination round?”
“No one has ever done something this crazy. He must be mad!”
“Did y’all notice that Wang Teng has used five different Forces? Water, wood, fire, wind, and lightning!”
“Oh my god, five different elements!”
“This is terrifying.”
“No wonder the military values him highly.”
“However, a clone only possesses a portion of the main form’s ability. His ranking won’t be high even if he asks his clones to participate in more elimination rounds. It’ll be just a waste of effort.”
“That’s right. He’s wasting his clones.”
“What’s more, he used up a part of his Force and this will greatly affect the main body. He thought it was a smart move, but he lost sight of his priorities.”
Many people were blown away by the young hero’s five different Forces, but some weren’t optimistic about his overall performance. His actions were too insane for them to understand.
As they saw it, creating clones would divert one’s power, while the clones wouldn’t have the strength of the main form either.
Hence, Wang Teng’s strategy wouldn’t guarantee a good result, and could even affect the main body’s battle ability, causing him to lag behind others. It was a stupid decision.
“He’s too arrogant. Not even the crown prince would dare to do this. Does he think he has the ability? What a joke!” Valteru smirked.
“Let’s watch how he digs his own grave.” Sinclamon laughed in delight.
In the military’s giant battlecraftGeneral Fu Xinglan and the other two eternal stage warriors frowned. They didn’t understand Wang Teng’s move either.
General Habakkuk touched his golden beard and asked, “Isn’t he overestimating himself a little?”
Fu Xinglan shook his head and replied calmly, “Let’s continue watching. The round has just begun.”
Habakkuk nodded and kept quiet.
Everyone had different thoughts regarding Wang Teng’s crazy idea.
But, this also caused them to place more attention on him. His popularity reached an unprecedented high.
Everyone wanted to know how high he and his clones could climb.
After all, no one had ever done that before. It piqued everyone’s curiosity!
“Look! Strachey from the Parkers family is also climbing quickly. He’s already reached the 126 spot in Zone 1!”
“As expected of a talent from the eight dukedoms.”
“The talent from the Rodriguez family is strong too. He’s at no. 212.”
“Jin Tiankuang from the Jin family seems better. He’s number 198 now.
“Huh, who’s that? I’ve never heard of him, but he’s no. 1 in Zone 4 and his points are still climbing. Oh my god!”
“An unknown talent? Is he from some small planet?”
Amid everyone’s eyes, the image of a muscular youth from the Ape race was fixed on screen. He held a battle ax in one hand, slaughtering his way through Zone 4. A ruthless and malevolent aura surged out of his body.
Star beasts pounced on him, only to get killed by his ax and turning into points.
That person was the no.1 of Zone 4, Yuan Hong!
At the same time, in the other forbidden zonesvarious unknown talents displayed their astonishing battle abilities and climbed to the top ranks. They entered the public eye and their popularity increased.
The popularity ranking on the live chat platform changed completely. Some candidates descended while others rose continuously.
Battle Planet, Zone 1.
Wang Teng continued to dive down, unaware of what the others were thinking.
If he did, he would tell them: ‘You’re too naive!’
He wouldn’t have created four clones and sent them to different zones if he wasn’t confident about it.
At first, using the Darkness Clone Technique, the clones he could make would only have planetary stage powers.
After the battle on Defense Planet No. 29, he clearly noticed this restriction and searched for a way to overcome it.
He pondered over the question for a long time, but couldn’t find any solution.
That was, until he met the Tree of Radiance. The ‘seeds’ she created using her origin power gave him inspiration.
What would happen if he instilled the different origin powers into his clones?
The instant he thought about this, he asked the tree spirit about how she created her ‘seeds’.
Then, he used the same method to form ‘origin seeds’ and create clones with them as their cores.
As expected, the clones broke through the boundaries and reached the celestial stage.
This was why he dared to send them to the different forbidden zones.
He had already killed a huge number of star beasts; the weaker creatures no longer dared to approach him.
His ranking in Zone 1 had reached the 95th spot. Many people were surprised.
The jump from no.1,765,891 to no.95 was enormous. And yet, Wang Teng had only taken an hour for this.
He wasn’t as fast as the crown prince, but the feat was still terrifying.
The audience also realized that his Zone 1 ranking wasn’t the only one rising. The rankings in the other zones were also jumping.
No. 956 in Zone 2.
No. 811 in Zone 3.
No. 770 in Zone 5.
And no. 755 in Zone 7.
He was within the top thousand within all four zones. It was unbelievable.
Oh my god!
His clones didn’t have as high of a ranking as the main form, but they still surpassed many people, entering the top 1000.
This implied that Wang Teng’s clones had beaten countless participants!
Can you give some chance to the others?
