“Du Gang’s ranking has been constantly dropping!”

After Du Gang secluded himself, his score began to plummet rapidly. It wasn’t long before the people of Pangu Continent noticed.

“Why hasn’t his score changed at all? Has he been eliminated already?” “But that’s impossible, he even broke into the top thirty on their planet!”

People found this absurd. On the first day, he had almost reached the top 20, and then on the second day, he was eliminated?

“Sigh, I’ve been saying, he’s just like me. Collecting points on the first day and then being chased after on the second day!”

Wu Tao shrugged his shoulders, walked away, and quickly entered the Secret Realm to continue his cultivation practice.

His feeling was that Du Gang either got eliminated like him or was hiding somewhere, possibly being pursued. But without a doubt, he would eventually be eliminated!

This was a great regret for the people of the Qiankun universe.

They had initially thought that the Qiankun universe would be able to demonstrate their prowess this time, with two contestants advancing to the qualifying contest. However, the competitor who everyone had high hopes for somehow ended up with a plummeting rank.

In just 8 hours, not even a full day, Du Gang had completely fallen out of the top ten thousand.

After all, on the first day, Du Gang had been going around looking for people to kill.

On the second day, everyone had regained a bit of their mental power. Even though their enveloping range definitely wasn’t as large as Du Gang’s, locating a contestant hiding inside a tall building was still feasible.

Within the Heavenly Chosen Academy, many weaker students had already been eliminated.

As predicted, most of the eliminated ones were first-year students. Their average power level was only the fifth domain, so naturally, they couldn’t last very long.

The second-year students, however, were much stronger and the number of students eliminated was not too large.

The second day of the competition passed quickly, and Du Gang still hadn’t made a reappearance on the leaderboard.

However, some folks in the Qiankun universe were still holding onto hope, waiting for Du Gang to make a comeback.

The third day, the fourth day, the fifth day, all the way to the eighth day, those who had been waiting for Du Gang to create a miracle gradually let go of their obsession and shifted their attention back to Hu Tu.

After all, although Du Gang was gone, Hu Tu was still in the top ten thousand.

Inside the Heavenly Chosen Academy, rumors were flying in all directions.

Some said that Du Gang had been eliminated long ago while others insisted that Du Gang was still in the competition and hadn’t come out yet.

But the problem was, both now and in the past, Du Gang never made it a habit to answer calls from strangers. Therefore, people couldn’t determine if Du

Gang was still on the battlefield or, like Wu Tao, had entered a Secret Realm.

Yet as time went on, discussions over Du Gang within the academy gradually subsided.

Because people suddenly noticed that someone else had broken into the top ten thousand!

“Qiao Jin!”

What shocked everyone was that Qiao Jin had actually broken into the top ten thousand!

Even more coincidentally, both Qiao Jin and Du Gang were trom the White Dragon Mountain.

“How did White Dragon Mountain train such disciples?”

“Don’t speak too soon, who knows if Qiao Jin will end up just like Du Gang, having a brief moment of glory before disappearing amongst the crowd.”

Even so, attention towards Qiao Jin had undoubtedly increased.

The one hundredth competition star.

Inside a city that had become ruinous, Du Gang still sat cross-legged in the middle floor of a tall building, cultivating.

At this moment, he had cultivated the sixth mystery to ninety-nine percent. He was just one percent away from grasping the sixth domain.

Before him, the laws of the gold element were manifestly dense, with constant movement of the mysterious laws back and forth.

“Merge!”

Du Gang softly murmured a command.

At once, the surrounding gold laws rapidly fused and plunged towards his body.

“Boom!”

When the last trace of mysterious laws surged into his body, a fresh domain naturally emerged.

A slight smile appeared at the corner of Du Gang’s mouth.

“Eleven days and I’ve finally reached the peak!”

He slowly stood up, his previous five-fold domain instantaneously spread open, and just like that, the domain that enveloped his body transformed into a six-fold domain!

Within eleven days, he had successfully advanced to become a sixth domain cultivator!

“It’s time to go out!”

Du Gang glanced at the watch on his wrist; his ranking and points were already trailing far behind.

[Participant: Du Gang (Qiankun Universe Country) Points: 9234] [Planetary ranking: 3482345, Overall ranking: 423527384]

“Only eleven days have passed, and I’ve become one of the trailing existences among the remaining contestants?”

Du Gang smirked slightly, “One-third of the time has passed. Those who can stay until now must be all masters, right? l”

“Not only that, as the first ten days have passed, it also means that the restrictions on everyone’s Mental Power and their Domains have been lifted!” “Now, everyone is unrestricted, possessing their full strength at this moment!”

“Let the slaughter begin!”

A warlike gleam filled Du Gang’s eyes. With a light tap of his foot, he leaped out of the building where he had hidden for eleven days. His Mental Power unfolded instantly, scanning the nearest contestant, and he darted towards him.

As he flew in mid-air, the other contestant had already sensed the scanning but had no idea where Du Gang was and blindly took off in one direction.

“Hasn’t his Mental Power recovered? Why hasn’t he noticed me?”

Du Gang was a bit perplexed. At worst, everyone here was of Stellar Level

Cosmic Level, and quite a few were of the Domain Lord Level. Their Mental Power was absolutely not weak; there was no way they could not see him at such a short distance.

“Could it be, is that fellow’s Mental Power abnormally weak?”

Out of curiosity, he continued flying towards his opponent. Finally, within a 500-meter range of his opponent, the fleeing man noticed Du Gang.

But it was too late. This distance, for Du Gang, was less than a moment’s notice. The reason he allowed himself to get so close was to see if his opponent nad any mental power.

From what he could see now, his opponent did have Mental Power, but it was extremely weak, covering only a range of 500 meters.

“Boom!”

A flash of golden light passed by and a body fell instantly to the ground.

And Du Gang’s points increased by twenty thousand, indicating that his opponent had forty thousand points.

“Did his Mental Power have a coverage of only 500 meters?”

Du Gang was puzzled. Five hundred meters, this was basically a very small number. Even a Meteorite Level warrior, just escaping the Rainbow Level and naturally born with Mental Power, would be stronger than this!

With this doubt, he quickly extended his Mental Power once more, identifying another person twenty kilometers away hiding in a building.

Like before, the contestant was unaware of Du Gang’s location and chose a lateral direction instead.

“Could it be that these fellows’ Mental Power is also being suppressed?”

To verify this conjecture, Du Gang quickly pursued. This time, when he was about one kilometer away from the enemy, the enemy finally noticed Du Gang. He quickly adjusted his position and continued fleeing, but it was too late!

“Whoosh!”

Again, a golden light flashed, and the enemy was killed.

Looking at the corpse slowly falling to the ground, Du Gang fell into a contemplation.

“The organizing committee hinted that Mental Power would recover after ten days, but now it seems it’s still being suppressed.. ‘

“So... it’s gravity, isn’t it?”

Du Gang quickly figured it out.

“Everyone else’s Mental Power seems to be suppressed by the gravity of this planet. Even if they have recovered themselves, their Mental Power is still reduced by a factor of ten million...

“Why am I not limited?”

He was a bit puzzled. Could it be because he possesses the original Source?

Or did the organizing committee open a back door for him?

At this thought, Du Gang’s pupils contracted.

“Could it be possible that the Jiang Family has made a move, creating a back door for me, hoping that I could advance to the Qualifying Contest with powerful Mental Power and eventually reach the Pangu Continent?”

“This possibility cannot be ruled out!”

Du Gang chuckled, “No matter what the reason is, as long as it benefits me, it’s good. I can’t stay in the Qiankun Continent forever just because the Pangu Continent is threatening!”

Indeed, if he was afraid, he would have stayed in the Milky Way Galaxy instead of leaving, ruling like a local overlord!

At this thought, Du Gang once again extended his Mental Power, flying toward the nearest enemy.

This time, the enemy was stopping in a small area about ten kilometers away.

However, when Du Gang’s Mental Power covered it, the opponent surprisingly did not flee but drew out his weapon and went on high alert.

“Here is one who has high confidence his own strength!”

Du Gang licked his lips. Was he finally going to meet a powerful individual?

Immediately, his speed increased by another third.

Like before, when he got within a one-kilometer range of the enemy, he was detected.

Nevertheless, the enemy didn’t flee. Instead, he turned around to face Du Gang, holding a heavy sword, and waited quietly.

Seeing this, Du Gang surprisingly didn’t attack immediately. He stopped when he was tens of meters away from his enemy.

“Your strength is either very powerful, or you are a Mind Master...” The dark-skinned man with the heavy sword didn’t flee, instead calmly said.

Du Gang grinned, “Since you know, why don’t you run?”

“Run

The dark-skinned man also laughed, “Do you think, I’m a chicken?!”

Having said this, he turned into a phantom, his heavy sword inverted, and he ran towards Du Gang at high speed.

“Kill!

With a loud shout, the swarthy man swung his heavy sword as if it were weightless.

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”

Three consecutive attacks were directly blocked by Du Gang.

“SWOOSh!” Swoosh!” “Swoosh!”

At this moment, his other hand was free, and three silhouettes of concealed weapons sparkling with silver light shot towards Du Gang.

“Boom-!”

Seeing this, Du Gang immediately expanded his Sixfold Domain and blocked them.

“Sixfold?”

The swarthy man felt delighted, quickly opened his Sevenfold Domain, and sneered, “You only have a Sixfold Domain, but you dare to chase me!” After finishing speaking, he was about to press down his domain.

“Die!”

At this moment, Du Gang raised his spear and directly initiated an attack. With a faster speed and a fiercer attack, which contained the mysteries of Gold Element Laws, he drew a strange arc across the swarthy man’s skull.

‘You...”

The swarthy man’s movements slowed down, and the look in his eyes towards Du Gang was full of terror.

Right after that, “Bang!” His skull exploded instantly, and his headless body fell to the ground.

Seeing his victory, Du Gang smiled lightly, “An ordinary Sevenfold Domain Master essentially can’t beat me. Even an ordinary Eightfold Domain Master, I should be able to defeat!”

At this moment, the personal information on Du Gang’s wristwatch vibrated again.

[Participant: Du Gang (Qiankun Cosmo Nation), Score: 152343] [Rank within the planet: 365235, Total Rank: 46234234]

“Now it’s truly exhilarating to kill someone and gain tens of thousands of points. It’s way better than earning just one point for a kill at the beginning!”

It took him the whole first day to earn more than nine thousand points. Now, he’d received more than a hundred thousand points just by killing three people!

However, seeing this ranking, Du Gang furrowed his eyebrows slightly.

“Usually, the planet’s internal ranking differs by around a hundred times from the total ranking. But my ranking seems disproportionate...”

“Either the players from our 100th participant planet are too rubbish...”

“Or, there’s an extremely formidable person present on this 100th participant planet...”

Du Gang leaned more towards the second possibility.

Because the matching system for this competition was the same as the previous point- elimination system, the power levels were relatively even.

“But then again, I can’t rule out the possibility of Jiang Family taking action again and filling our planet with rubbish competitors...”

“It doesn’t matter, let’s continue to kill!”

Du Gang shook his head, not thinking about it anymore, and set off again.

The main reason he chose Du Gang was that he possessed a secret method to resist attacks of mental power!

Against a mind master like this, he had some advantages!

In his eyes, the fact that Du Gang could extend his mental power such a long distance to detect him meant that he was definitely a mind master.

In the eastern district, Du Gang saw the Golden Lion King suddenly take flight and head toward him, and he immediately broke into laughter.

“I didn’t know who to choose, but since you delivered yourself to my door, let it be you!”

Seeing this, Du Gang levitated and flew away from the watchtower, heading toward the Golden Lion King.

This time, he didn’t bother to hide himself. Many formidable individuals were startled as he flew past.

“It’s Blood Armor Golden Spear!”

“Run!”

The powerful fighters on the ground hastily fled upon seeing Du Gang in the sky.

However, Du Gang surprisingly didn’t pursue them, choosing instead to continue toward the Golden Lion King.

“He’s left!”

“Phew-”

“We escaped with our lives, but I wonder where that Blood Armor Golden Spear is headed...

In just a few minutes, the two strongest individuals in the city finally came face to face.

“Blood Armor Golden Spear? It’s you? Where’s the mind master?”

The Golden Lion King, floating in mid-air, eyed Du Gang’s attire with confusion.

He had naturally heard of Blood Armor Golden Spear’s reputation, but how could a close combatant like him also be a mind master?

He carefully sensed again, and indeed, those familiar mental waves were indeed emanating from Du Gang.

“So, you seem to be a mind master?!”

The Golden Lion King suddenly laughed, praising, “Not bad, you managed to hide it well. If one didn’t see with their own eyes, who would’ve thought that you, the Blood Armor Golden Spear, are in fact a mind master!”

Hearing these words, Du Gang knew he had been misunderstood. However, he didn’t explain. Now that his enemy thought he was a mind master, he would naturally guard against mental attacks, which worked perfectly for him!

“Golden Lion King, our points from murdering ordinary fighters won’t be enough for us to advance by the end of the competition. Therefore, we have to fight each other!”

Du Gang said indifferently: “Our duel will both determine rank and life or death. The victor will make one more step toward the top hundred!”

“Well said!”

The Golden Lion King loudly praised, “A true man should act as such. Today’s battle, win or lose, will hold no grudges or regrets!”

“Fight!”

“Fight!”

Suddenly, both men were filled with a fighting spirit and collided head-on.

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”

For a while, the intense collision sounds as well as the sound of buildings collapsing from the aftershocks could be heard.

The strongest fighters in every corner of the city were all alerted at this moment.

“This uproar, the strongest fighters are battling it out!”

“My gosh, did the strongest start fighting ahead of time?!”

Previously everyone understood, these strongest fighters all had a tacit agreement, each staying in their own territories, hunting down the weaker contestants.

To their surprise, they have started fighting this early!

Meanwhile, in the centers of the other seven territories in the city, another seven powerful fighters also looked gravely towards the east.

“Is the battle of the strongest about to start?!”

When the nine strongest fighters tacitly agreed to divide the territories, each having their hunting grounds, they knew that the ultimate showdown was inevitable.

Because, this planet has one hundred and twenty cities, and a city can have a maximum of one challenger, or even none at all!

So, it all comes down to a life or death situation!

Simultaneously, all seven strongest fighters made their move! They raced towards the east, the center of the battleground!

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”

In the center of the battlefield, Du Gang and the Golden Lion King clashed countless times. At this moment, not only was the Golden Lion King’s fur dyed red, even Du Gang was covered in unstoppable blood.

His Ancient God Body is, after all, only at the Stellar Level, and his opponent is a Domain Lord Level at Ninth Rank, with seven domains and even has reach into the microscopic on the Laws’ Mystery!

Therefore, even Du Gang is injured now!

“Exciting!”

Du Gang shouted out loud, his face filled with bloodlust and exhilaration!

For all these years, this is the first time he’s bled, and also the first time he’s been injured!

In the past, with his formidable body, even if his Laws were not as strong as his opponent, his body never took any damage.

But now, after meeting a powerful opponent, he’s finally been wounded!

“What a madman!”

The Golden Lion King also started laughing at this moment, “You’re mad, but I’m madder!”

At this moment, his attack, once again intensified.

Just like Du Gang, neither defending nor blocking, he just stormed ahead.

“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”

Suddenly, the entire battlefield was filled with intense collision sounds again.

Both of them were absolutely insane.

You hit me with a punch, I return it with a palm; you pierce through my body, I blast your arm off.

Just like two devils that walked out of hell, they battled each other madly.

Their regeneration abilities were both extraordinarily strong. One second, their palms just broke off, the next second, a new palm grew out.

Blood spilled!

Flesh flew about!

A bloody slaughterhouse!

The strongest fighters from other cities who arrived at the scene were dumbfounded by what they saw!

“It’s too crazy!”

“Their fight is too brutal!”

Everyone felt a shiver up their spines.

These two fellas, they were both ruthless!

At this point, the other seven strongest fighters also arrived at the scene.

Looking at the battling duo, all seven of them very tacitly refrained from interfering.

They looked at each other and suddenly burst out laughing.

“Since the final battle has started ahead of schedule, let’s clear the field. After clearing, let’s have a good fight!”

“Sure!”

No one knows who suggested clearing the field, but everyone else agreed with a shout.

Suddenly, seven people turned into seven beams of light, killing their way towards the surrounding audience.

“Run!”

“They are clearing the field!”

Chaos ensued, filled with mourning and crying, and noises of people trying to escape.

“It’s a trap!”

Upon hearing this, Lei Dao scoffed coldly, “Trap? You’re not even worthy for us to set a trap for, this is just an early clean-up operation!”

Indeed, for these strongest individuals, these other powerful ones were merely cannon fodder!

They could kill or behead them at any time. The reason they let them live was because they were too well hidden and tough to find!

In a split second, the entire scene became even more chaotic.

Countless people were running for their lives, while others were trying to form alliances and fight back, shouting angrily.

“My life is in my hands, not fate’s. Brothers, let’s fight them, they’re only seven people!”

As soon as these words were spoken, numerous people responded in agreement!

Many strong individuals turned around and joined forces, charging towards the seven of them.

“A bunch of rabble!”

The seven people sneered continuously, and not only did they not stop, they increased their speed instead.

“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”

With the seven of them making their moves simultaneously, they instantly shattered the alliance formed by a group of powerful individuals.

“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”

After being shattered, these people reverted back to being harmless lambs.

Under the seven’s onslaught, it didn’t take long before each one of them turned into white light and disappeared without a trace.

Only a minute passed, and the crowd that was once teeming with people disappeared.

The clean-up operation was over!

The seven strongest individuals emerged victorious!

In this city, there might still be some people who dared not come and survived. But most came to the scene and were wiped out.

As for those who luckily survived, they actually had no chance of advancing, and the points they carried were scarce, not worth chasing after to kill!

Hence, the seven of them split up again, standing in seven different directions and silently observing the battlefield.

“With Blood Armor Gold Spear and the Gold -Haired Lion King kicking off the finals, let’s wait for their duel to end before we start fighting again!” “Agreed!”

Everyone voiced their agreement!

In the battlefield, Du Gang and the Gold-Haired Lion King were already fighting fiercely.

Despite knowing that the other seven strong individuals had arrived, the two of them remained unfazed.

They believed that those seven people would not meddle in their fight!

This is the dignity of the strongest!

And the tacit understanding between the strongest!

“Kill!

“Kill!

The speed of the two increased exponentially, with their attacks growing more and more powerful.

Each blow was strong enough to kill an ordinary seventh-level domain lord.

However, hitting each other only resulted in a splash of blood.

“Who would have thought that Blood Armor Gold Spear is a sixth-level domain lord!”

At this moment, the other seven people also noticed Du Gang’s domain and could not help but sigh.

“This guy’s strength is too impressive, a sixth-level domain lord can actually compete with us ! ”

“Indeed, amongst us nine, he probably has the most potential, right?!”

Indeed, if given time for Du Gang to breakthrough to the seventh-level domain, then none of them would be his match!

But there are no ifs in a competition. The current state he’s in reflects his current strength and the results he has to face.

“They’re about to decide who wins!”

Those seven people outside the duel were observing carefully. They knew both individuals had begun their final assaults, reaching the key moment. “I wonder who will ultimately win!”

Everyone was extremely expectant because the victor would join them, the seven strongest individuals, in the final competition!

“Boom!”

With the explosion of the final blow, both parties finally ended their fight.

“Swoosh!”

A streak of white light flashed past, leaving only one of the strongest individuals standing in the field.

It was—Du Gang!

“Blood Armor Gold Spear has won the final victory!”
