Subconsciously, Li Yuan glanced at the Divine Palace panel.

"Going to Feixing will have to wait until July this year,"

"The practical fights of the global Martial Path university competition will also start at the beginning of June,"

"In the meantime, staying at the university for silent cultivation won't be of much significance to me," Li Yuan thought to himself, "After the virtual battle ends, I'll spend some more time in concealed cultivation, and once I become a Prime Warrior, I'll venture into the Second Level Star Realm for adventure once again."

This was Li Yuan's plan for himself.

The Second Level Star Realm is generally more dangerous than the First Level Star Realm.

Once you become a Prime Warrior, your strength will surge greatly.

Even when facing a Second Rank mid-level opponent, you would be able to cope, and entering the Second Level Star Realm would then be much safer.

Later on, by killing members of the Alien Race and seizing spiritual nutrients, you can accumulate your Spiritual Awakening Level to the 40% limit, and you will get another surge of Origin Power in your body, which will hugely increase your strength even further.

Only then will you truly have the capabilities to stand your ground in the Second Rank Star Realm.

"Venturing into the Star Realm, I can not only make contributions but also earn more wealth," Li Yuan thought to himself.

Life and death tempering will lead to faster growth.

"Next, I just need to beautifully finish the virtual battle," Li Yuan entered the resting room.

He sat down in the virtual network capsule.

Logged into the Starry Skies Fighting Network.

...

In the virtual network, within the specially designated competition space of the Starry Skies Fighting Network.

Whoosh!

Li Yuan directly entered and materialized in an immensely large battle space. Subconsciously, he looked around and saw that both sides of the spectator stands were filled with endless seas of people.

There must be millions of them, densely packed and overwhelmingly numerous.

The noise was deafening.

"Senior Brother Jin,"

"Senior Brother Jin is here,"

"Senior Brother Jin," before Li Yuan could speak, a chorus of voices immediately rang out around him; those sitting beside him were all freshmen from the Sixth Institute.

"Li Yuan,"

"It's Li Yuan,"

"Li Yuan is here," The shouts here immediately drew the attention of the farther spectator stands, and they all turned to look, all of them students from Kunlun Martial University.

"Senior Brother Jin, you've finally arrived. We've been waiting for you," An Nong said with a smile, "The preliminaries have been going on for an hour, and we hadn't yet seen you. We were worried you had forgotten and were about to send you a message."

"It's just the preliminaries; there's no need to make a fuss," Li Yuan replied with a smile, "How are you guys doing? Did you pass the preliminaries?"

"I made it through,"

"I didn't, just missed by a bit, only over 3000 points,"

"I passed," The freshmen from the Sixth Institute replied one after another, and from their voices, it seemed that most had made it through the preliminaries.

To this, Li Yuan was not surprised. Although the freshmen from the Sixth Institute were not as strong as him, on a global scale among peers, they were already in the top one percent.

Passing the preliminaries was mostly not difficult for them.

However, according to the traditions of Kunlun Martial University, the preliminaries and the melee matches were not considered part of the main competition.

It was not until the 'elimination rounds,' where individual duels took place, that they would be regarded as truly meaningful matches.

"There's quite a crowd," Li Yuan said with a smile.

"Yes, the rules are similar to the ten-schools contest for newcomers, appearing in the spectator area according to country, university, institute, grade... All the spectating students are in this spectator space," An Nong said with a smile, "Right now, we've got over a million viewers."

"Most people will leave once they pass the preliminaries," An Nong obviously was quite familiar with the rules, "But there are still quite a lot of those remaining, many are also very concerned about who will be the first in the preliminaries and from which country."

"The first place in the preliminaries?" Li Yuan chuckled.

Is that title so important?

He instinctively looked toward 'the leaderboard' at the highest spot of the battle space, which listed the top 100 scores of the preliminaries:

1, Shu Hengyu (Xia Country): 96,432 points

2, Chuanfang Guizi (Sakura Country): 93,444 points

3, Ovejus Vila (United States): 93,412 points

...

97, Tian Dazhuang (Xia Country): 89,996 points

...

Li Yuan glanced over the top 100, was momentarily stunned, then shook his head and chuckled, "What a bunch of strange names."

Besides Tian Dazhuang, there were hardly any familiar names.

Not even two names from the opponents he had faced in the ten-schools contest for newcomers.

Something isn't right!!

"It seems to be as the teacher said, anyone with 4000 points in a single preliminary can pass," Li Yuan thought to himself, "The scores to a certain extent reflect one's strength."

"There's no need to expose myself now and make other strong competitors wary, especially since being first in the melee doesn't directly lead to a slot in the final rounds," Li Yuan thought as he made up his mind.

He applied to compete.

Whoosh! He disappeared onto the platform out of thin air. Experience tales at m v|l e'-NovelFire.net

"Li Yuan is competing,"

"He's gone, he must have gone to compete,"

"Do you think Li Yuan will give a stunning performance? I've heard others say, and Senior Brother Jin mentioned that Li Yuan is likely to make it into the top hundred of the main tournament,"

"Not sure, I looked up many strong players from last year who didn't show their strength,"

"Senior Brother Jin didn't make it onto the preliminaries' top hundred either. Senior Brother Jin was in the top hundred during his second year last year; this year he might even break into the top twenty. Judging by his strength, it's impossible that he can't make it into the top hundred of the preliminaries," Students from Kunlun Martial University discussed quietly among themselves.

They all held some expectation in their hearts, hoping that Li Yuan would show his mighty power and make it onto the preliminary ranking list.

...

Within a virtual space,

Like a vast corridor, Li Yuan appeared out of thin air, holding a long spear.

"Kill the enemy to score points; the more you kill, the higher the points... The enemies will keep appearing until you are killed or eliminated," the system voice rang out.
