[Intermediate Tier 2:29%]
[Vitality: 516]
[Vision: 1855 meters]
[Current Technology Points: 17255]
[Cultivation Method: Mountain Splitting Art (Earth Level High-Rank)(Major achievement stage). Can instantly mobilize Qi and Blood energy. Upper limit: 300. [Maximum limit of energy acc.u.mulation: 600]
A million Magic Potions had increased his progress by 15%. With over two million Magic Potions, his cultivation had reached 29% of the Intermediate Tier 2.
Compared to the new citizens ‘tolerance and slow absorption, as an old citizen, Zhao Yu did not reject any potion. He absorbed as much as he could, and in just a short month, he advanced from beginner to intermediate Second-tier.
As for the Level Two divine medicine, Zhao Yu had asked the Super Brain if it could be used now.
The answer he received was that it was recommended to be used when he was at the peak of Second tier to break through the upper limit.
If he used it now, it would be equivalent to a high-level potion. It would only increase his progress by 20%, and its effect would be equivalent to a potion worth a million of magic potions. It was far less valuable as a Tier 2 Divine Medicine.
On the other hand, when he reached the peak of Second-tier, he could use the medicine to effectively break through the bottleneck and enter the King Slayer level.
Therefore, Zhao Yu kept the two bottles of Level Two divine medicine in his storage s.p.a.ce.
In addition, according to the Super Brain’s evaluation, two bottles of Second tier divine medicine could provide nearly two thousand Technology Points. On average, one bottle could provide one thousand Technology Points. It could be used as a supplement when the Technology Points were insufficient and in danger.
The finals began, and all ten contestants walked onto the stage.
What surprised Zhao Yu was that among the ten people, five of them were actually locals of Blackstone Town.
He Xiao Xiao was standing beside him. She seemed to have noticed his confusion. She explained in a low voice,” The matching system is controlled by the locals. During the Top one hundred compet.i.tion, many of our own people matched each other…”
Zhao Yu suddenly realized that he had been right; based on the strength displayed by the people from Moon City, it wouldn’t have been surprising if all the top ten spots were taken by them.
But now, with the results split evenly, it was clear that the matches had been manipulated.
Out of the ten remaining compet.i.tors, five were local, with Zhao Yu, He Xiao Xiao, Wu Liu, and Zhuge Wohu each taking one spot.
The last spot was taken by a woman named Qian Xin Yue, who, upon entering the ring, kept staring at Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu glanced back a few times, confirming that this was their first meeting. She hadn’t been present during the Wu Liu incident, likely occupied with other matters.
“Hmph!”
Qian Xin Yue snorted coldly, clearly displeased with Zhao Yu’s impolite staring, a look of disdain evident in her eyes.
Zhao Yu didn’t recall ever offending her.
What s up with that woman? Is she involved with Wu Liu?”
Zhao Yu thought for a moment. Among the people from Moon City, the only one he had offended was Wu Liu.
He whispered his question to He Xiao Xiao.
In the past few days, He Xiao Xiao was the person Zhao Yu had grown closest to among the youth from Moon City.
She wasn’t one to shy away from trouble and often chatted with Zhao Yu on her phone, so they were fairly familiar with each other.
He Xiao Xiao grinned, “Her name is Qian Xin Yue, from the Qian family…” “As for her connection with Wu Liu, there’s nothing much, but she is similar to him…”
“What do you mean?!”
“There are rumors that Wu Liu could enter the Wu family ranks, and that’s true. He once defeated someone ranked 61 in the Wu family…”
“But Wu Liu was bullied when he was young. In big families, there’s always a hierarchy based on blood relations, which is normal…”
Back then, it was his master who protected him, and Wu Liu remembered it very well and treasured it, which is why he willingly became a servant…” He Xiao Xiao continued with a cheerful expression, not minding Qian Xin Yue’s glare, “Qian Xin Yue had a similar experience. She was saved by the Qian family head’s daughter and became her close maid…”
“Her young lady is now in a high position in the family ranks, and Qian Xin Yue once defeated someone at the bottom of the ranks…”
At this point, Zhao Yu was confused, “So why is she glaring at me?!”
He Xiao Xiao clicked her tongue, “Zhao Yu, you have quite the luck with women…”
“What do you mean?!”
Before I came to Blackstone Town, there was a rumor in the Qjan family that
their eldest daughter was to marry you…”
“But it seems the eldest daughter wasn’t too willing, having higher ambitions and not wanting to become a tool for family reproduction…”
“Huh?!”
Zhao Yu was taken aback.
He Xiao Xiao smiled, “So, Qian Xin Yue probably dislikes you and might be looking for a chance to cause you trouble this time…”
“Got it!”
Zhao Yu nodded, understanding her purpose for coming. Being prepared in advance meant no unexpected issues would arise.
As the host was about to announce the compet.i.tion rules, someone suddenly interrupted.
“This is too c.u.mbersome…”
Wu Liu stepped forward, reverting to his usual cold demeanor, and said indifferently, “I don’t have time to waste here. I want to take first place in this compet.i.tion. Anyone who disagrees can challenge me. The rest of you can sort out the rankings yourselves!”
“Wow~~!”
The crowd was in an uproar.
Everyone was shocked by Wu Liu’s challenge.
“We knew the people from Moon City were arrogant, but this is too much to ignore!”
“Yeah, this is way too overbearing, directly claiming first place and challenging anyone to disagree…” °
In the stands, the heads of the five major families and the five emissaries were already in their seats.
“This doesn’t seem to follow the rules, does it?!”
Wu Yong Wei chuckled, “Ah, they’re just some second-tier youngsters. It’s no fun watching them fight. Let’s just do as Little Liu suggested. Let the strongest fight, and once it’s over, we can head back early…”
