Chapter 265: Chapter 209 Sweep Along the Way

"No, it's just that this area around me is a wasteland, but overall, the whole battlefield is still a jungle," Li Yuan held the long spear.Standing on this small patch of wasteland.

The Star Realm battlefield essentially simulates Star Realm terrains, which are divided into many kinds of terrains, such as snowfields, deserts, jungles, wastelands, oceans, and so on.

Of course, in the real Star Realm, some environments are extremely harsh, making it very difficult for Prime Warriors to survive... The simulation battlefield naturally can't be that extreme.

"Limited to four hours."

"The actual environmental data is actually similar to that of Blue Star," Li Yuan slightly clenched his fist, quickly adapting to his current physical strength. With a thought, he achieved Subtlety: "Strength, speed... indeed, it's the Fifteenth Level of Physical Quality."

All contestants have the standard Fifteenth Level of Physical Quality, that is, standard Fist Strength of 12,000 kilograms, Burst Speed of 50 meters per second.

"Continuous ranges of mountains, this tall, must be to restrict the field of vision," Li Yuan muttered to himself.

In a pure wasteland battlefield, with a Fifteenth Level of Physical Quality, one could easily see more than ten kilometers away. A lot of contestants would discover each other before even getting close and would flee by leaping away.

Jungle battlefield? Plus so many mountains, there are no such worries.

"It's a pity, with the virtual network, the Spiritual Power each person can use is simulated and limited," Li Yuan frowned slightly: "Otherwise, relying on my strong Spiritual Power, the Perception Ability would be much stronger."

Li Yuan's peripheral vision caught sight of the smart ring on his hand.

He touched the light screen, where personal Points and rankings were displayed, as well as a detailed set of rules.

——

Contestant: Li Yuan (Xia Country)

Base Points: 200

Starfield points: 0

Total Points: 200

Battlefield Ranking: None

——

Rules for obtaining base points: Defeat other contestants to obtain 50% of their base points; Starfield points are not obtainable.

Rules for obtaining Starfield points: Kill Star Realm Creatures of level 15.0-15.9 to obtain 1 Starfield point; kill creatures level 16.0-17.9 to obtain 10 points; kill creatures level 18.0 and above to obtain 100 Starfield points, which remain completely intact even in the event of death.

Total Points Rule: Base Points + Starfield Points equals Total Points.

Death Rule: Everyone has only one life. If killed by a Star Realm Creature, both base points and Starfield points remain unchanged, and rankings are preserved; if killed by another contestant, base points are halved while Starfield points remain unchanged, and rankings are preserved.

Advancement Rules: After the melee round ends, the first in total score advances to the final, ranks 2-100 advance to the third elimination round, anyone ranked after 100 is eliminated.

Note: The entire battlefield is a circular battlefield with a diameter of about 100 kilometers; as time passes, the battlefield's range will continually shrink, with minimum battlefield diameter reducing to 10 kilometers.

...

"Interesting."

"These rules will probably make it hard for many contestants to weigh the pros and cons," Li Yuan revealed a cryptic smile: "Killing Star Realm Creatures earns very low points. One needs to kill a level 18 creature to get 100 points, but for one with Fifteenth Level Physical Quality to challenge a level 18? That's not something ordinary contestants can do."

A level 18 Star Realm Creature is three times stronger than a level 15.

Unless Unity is achieved, making the power and speed surge, even with High Rank Fourth Level techniques, it would be difficult for a Fifteenth Level Physical Quality to win against an 18th Level Star Realm Creature.

"The advantage is that once Starfield points are obtained, they can never be stripped away. Even if killed by a Star Realm Creature, all points are preserved," Li Yuan thought to himself.

Ultimately, it's the Points that determine the ranking, not survival.

If one accumulates enough points early on, there's a chance of advancing to the elimination round even if one dies early. Sёarᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Killing other contestants, killing just one contestant brings at least 100 points. And as the contest progresses, the living contestants' accumulated base points can become even more exaggerated, where killing one could yield tens of thousands of points," Li Yuan thought to himself.

"But the downside is, contestants can't gauge each other's strengths, and a slightest mistake could lead to being counter-killed, thus losing half their base points."

The rules may sound complex.

But at its core, it's just two phrases—low risk low reward; high risk high reward.

It all depends on the contestants' personal choices.

Choice is also a form of mental tempering.

"Choice?" Li Yuan showed a hint of a smile: "Whether they are contestants or Star Realm Creatures, anything that crosses my path shall be slain."

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Li Yuan sensed an odd disturbance in the distance.

Even without great Spiritual Power, his Perception Ability, enhanced by the state of Unity of Heaven and Man, was much stronger than that of an average contestant.

Boom!

Li Yuan's figure suddenly moved, turning into a streak of shadow, and rushed directly towards the distant wasteland.

After only seven or eight seconds, he went around a ridge.

"Hunting Star Realm Creatures?" At a glance, Li Yuan saw a burly man wielding a Combat Saber, fighting a large group of Star Realm Creatures that resembled wild yaks.

The flash of the saber flickered, one yak after another fell to the ground.

"A Fourth Level expert?" Li Yuan smirked, his speed unabated, he directly charged towards the burly man.

"Seeking death!" The burly man was also powerful, he roared.

He had sensed Li Yuan's approach early on; with a fierce stomp of his combat boots, he kicked a wild yak to the side and immediately used the momentum to charge at Li Yuan like lightning.

Whoosh!

The burly man leaped up, his Combat Saber ferociously chopping down towards Li Yuan, with a saber light so sharp it made the air tremble violently.

"Pfft!"

The two figures, one high and one low, crossed each other, a streak of Spear Light flashed by, a head soared high, and a copious amount of blood spurted from the chest cavity.

Thump~ Thump~

The headless body fell heavily, followed by the head hitting the ground and rolling, eyes filled with shock and disbelief until death.
