Chapter 61: I Am the Thunder!
Chapter 61: I Am the Thunder!
Soon.
The group tournament of the Battle Arena on Planet Canglan came to an end.
Thanks to Lin Yuan's incredible performance, Dongning City secured a spot in the top 100.
Keep in mind that this ranking includes all the cities on Planet Canglan.
Planet Canglan is divided into five continents: the Eastern, Western, Northern, and Southern Continents, as well as the strongest of them all, the Central Continent.
More than 20,000 cities participated in this grand event.
To be among the top 100 out of so many cities was an achievement that made countless other cities envious.
It was clear to everyone that Dongning City's current ranking was largely due to 'Lin Yuan'.
This evolutionary creature, whose power could rival that of a Tier 3 being to a certain extent, was the core of Dongning City's team.
As for the other three members, well, calling them accessories would be flattering them.
"If our city had an evolutionary being like Lin Yuan, we could probably make it into the top 50," someone commented.
"Indeed. Having an evolutionary being who can control the domain is a huge advantage. It's a rare ability," another person agreed.
"I wonder what kind of luck Dongning City had to suddenly appear out of nowhere. I've never even heard of this city in previous arena tournaments," a third person chimed in.
"Hey, does anyone here know this Lin Yuan personally?" someone else asked.
Countless spectators quickly engaged in lively discussions.
Undoubtedly, Lin Yuan was the most dazzling star of the group tournament.
His fame even overshadowed that of the over ten Tier 3 evolutionary beings.
After all, it was extremely rare in the history of the arena tournaments for a Tier 2 being to hold off a Tier 3 being for more than half an hour.
"Next up is the individual tournament," someone in the crowd said.
"I wonder how far Lin Yuan will go in the individual matches," another person added.
"I think he can make it to the top 50 at least," a confident fan predicted.
"I bet he'll be in the top 20, only below those Tier 3 evolutionary beings," another fan boasted.
The excitement and anticipation for the arena tournament continued to build, as the individual tournament was even more popular than the group matches.
Dongning City Arena.
The individual tournament started half a month after the group tournament had concluded.
Therefore, by the time the group matches were over, the individual tournament had only progressed to the top 500 stage.
Lin Yuan stood on one side of the arena, quietly awaiting his opponent for this match.
The seats around the arena were packed with spectators.
After hundreds of matches, Lin Yuan had accumulated a large number of 'fans'.
Especially after the final group match, where he single-handedly held off a Tier 3 evolutionary being and three Tier 2 peak evolutionary beings for over half an hour, he had gained an immense number of admirers.
So now, each of Lin Yuan's matches attracted a huge crowd of spectators from all over Planet Canglan.
Even billions of ordinary citizens were watching through 'live broadcasts'.
"I never thought that in this arena tournament, we would make it this far," host Sun Bin remarked with deep emotion.
As the host for Dongning City, Sun Bin could only commentate on Dongning City's matches.
If all of Dongning City's contestants were eliminated, then he would have nothing to do.
In previous arena tournaments, the most Sun Bin had commentated on was a few dozen matches, but even that paled in comparison to the current tournament.
After all, the current tournament had already reached the top 500 stage, which was close to the final rounds.
Sun Bin felt like he was dreaming.
No, even in his dreams, Sun Bin wouldn't dare to dream so boldly.
"Alright, our contestant Lin Yuan has arrived. This is the contestant who has been creating miracles along the way," Sun Bin praised without holding back, before introducing Lin Yuan's opponent.
"In this match, the opponent is Sima Yun from Haiyuan City, also a Tier 2 peak evolutionary being who has chosen the Water Element evolution path," Sun Bin announced, his voice filled with enthusiasm as he addressed the crowd in the seats around the arena. "Based on historical records, Lin Yuan definitely has a higher chance of winning, but we shouldn't underestimate Sima Yun."
On the arena.
Lin Yuan looked towards his opponent who had just appeared in the distance.
Sima Yun was a woman with blue irises, like gazing into the depths of an ocean.
"The Water Element evolution path," Lin Yuan said, his interest piqued.
The Water Element evolution path was one of the types of element evolution paths.
Element evolution paths included the five major elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, as well as unique paths like shadow and ice.
In previous matches, Lin Yuan had encountered evolutionary beings of other element types.
However, the Water Element evolution path was quite rare.
Soon.
The match was about to begin.
Lin Yuan was just about to unfold his Taiji Domain.
He wanted to study Sima Yun carefully.
Just at that moment...
Sima Yun, who was standing opposite Lin Yuan, raised her hand without hesitation and said, "I concede."
Sima Yun looked deeply into Lin Yuan's eyes.
If it had been any other opponent, she would have at least tried to put up some resistance.
She wouldn't have just conceded like this.
But when it came to Lin Yuan...
Sima Yun had been paying attention to Lin Yuan for a long time.
She was well aware of his combat style.
His opponents often managed to last until the very end.
During the match, they would be 'toyed with' and probed by Lin Yuan in various ways.
This was true whether they were fighting a Tier 1 opponent or a Tier 2 one.
After observing this pattern for a long time, Sima Yun had begun to sense something amiss.
That was why she chose to concede right away.
After all, Sima Yun felt that there was absolutely no way she could last for more than half an hour against a Tier 3 evolutionary.
The fact that Lin Yuan could do so proved that his strength surpassed hers.
Rather than be played with after the match, it was better to just concede now and be done with it.
"I concede."
Lin Yuan was slightly taken aback.
He sighed.
Lately, there had been more and more evolutionary beings like this in the individual matches who lacked any fighting spirit.
Before leaving, Sima Yun asked Lin Yuan a question out of curiosity.
"Are you also here for those ten spots, just like them?"
"Ten spots?" Lin Yuan didn't answer.
After returning to the resting area, Lin Yuan fell into a brief contemplation.
As an evolutionary being who had made it into the top 500, Sima Yun's words must have been based on some grounds.
"Ten spots?"
"Is it the top ten, or something else?"
Lin Yuan stroked his chin.
At the same time, he began to connect with the Wisdom Goddess.
"I want to know about the ten spots in the Arena Tournament."
Lin Yuan asked directly.
Instead of painstakingly gathering information about the 'ten spots', it was better to just ask the Wisdom Goddess directly. After all, she knew everything there was to know about human civilization.
"Beep. You have sufficient authorization. As for the so-called 'ten spots', they refer to this session's Battle Arena Tournament on Planet Canglan, which has caught the attention of the Red Kun Star Master, and he will be reviewing the contestants."
"The top ten evolutionary beings in the individual tournament have a chance to catch the eye of the Red Kun Star Master."
The Wisdom Goddess' solemn and chilly voice echoed.
"Red Kun Star Master?"
Lin Yuan's expression turned slightly surprised.
This was a supreme figure who ruled over an entire star domain.
The Red Kun Star Domain included the Eight Great Galaxies, all of which were under the influence of the Red Kun Star Master.
On Planet Canglan, in the Central Continent.
In a private space.
A man with lightning shadows flickering in his pupils sat on a sofa.
Just by sitting there, faint streaks of lightning could be seen flowing in the surrounding void.
"These are the contestants to watch out for in this tournament, along with their detailed information. Take a look, Thunder God, so that you don't run into any problems when facing them."
Beside the man with lightning shadows in his pupils stood a middle-aged man, who gently pressed the virtual light screen in front of him and brought it over to the sofa.
The list mostly consisted of evolutionary beings at the Tier 3 level, along with a small number of special Tier 2 peak evolutionary beings, and Lin Yuan's name was among them.
"I don't need these."
The Thunder God's expression remained calm.
Ever since he was struck by lightning as a child, he had survived where thousands of others had perished. His body had been transformed into a lightning body.
After choosing a lightning-related evolutionary path, he had rapidly progressed, and in just a few short decades, he had reached the Tier 3 level.
In terms of combat power, he had swept aside all opposition, summoning lightning, mastering lightning, and even becoming one with lightning. This gave him a crushing advantage when facing other evolutionary beings.
"Analyzing opponents is something that weaklings do. I have no need for it."
The Thunder God slowly rose to his feet and walked towards the window, his eyes gleaming with fervor as he said, "I've never given the opponents in this tournament a second thought."
"That's because they are all mortals, while I am Thunder itself."
The Thunder God stood tall before the floor-to-ceiling window, his words filled with absolute confidence.
