Special Envoy

While Luo Feng, this 'madman,' finally put down his bloody blade and waited for the preliminary selection to end in a residential building, in the Planet Tower of the 72nd World Sector, Hong, currently ranked 999, was still fighting desperately, because the last day's battle would be incredibly fierce and cruel.

Especially the group of people with around 1000 points, they could rise at any moment or be pushed down.

"I must ensure I survive. If I die, I'll lose half my points and definitely fall out of the top 1001." Inside a dilapidated house with shattered windows, Hong stood with his eyes closed, dressed in black. "At the same time, I need to try and kill a few more experts to advance my ranking a bit further."

Many thoughts flashed through Hong's mind, yet his entire being was incredibly calm.

His mind was as still as a mirror.

He was completely relaxed and ethereal, yet he could detect the slightest movement in advance.

Among Earth's three strongest warriors,

Hong and Lei Shen had long lifespans and extensive experience. Although Lei Shen also had some understanding of Huaxia internal martial arts, his focus was on 'ancient yoga techniques.' Before the Great Nirvana period, he was a martial arts fanatic, someone who loved 'martial arts' with a pure heart, easily aligning with heaven and earth to reach the 'unity of heaven and man' realm of ancient yoga techniques.

Hong was different; he was trained as an assassin from a young age.

Assassins have precise control over their strength.

Huaxia internal martial arts place great importance on internal body control and mental state control. As an assassin, he naturally developed his own martial path. After enduring the Great Nirvana, the Base City era, and the devouring beast calamity, Hong's meticulous control over every ounce of his strength was unparalleled among the three strongest.

Among the three, Luo Feng was the youngest, the most junior!

In terms of talent, comprehension, and perseverance, he was second to none.

However, Luo Feng had not been influenced by Huaxia internal martial arts, so his control and application of strength in close combat were inferior to Hong and Lei Shen. But... Luo Feng was the strongest among the three!

Firstly, his talent made him the inheritor of the Yunmo Star lineage.

Secondly, he sacrificed his life and burned his soul to fight the Golden Horned Beast, only to possess it.

This placed Luo Feng on an extremely high platform, allowing him to rival the most brilliant geniuses among the countless human races in the vast universe.

...

Inside the house,

Luo Feng sat cross-legged, quietly waiting for the preliminary selection to end.

"Preliminary selection countdown: 60... 59... 58... 57... 56..." A grand, deep voice echoed in the minds of all survivors across the 100 World Sectors, making many warriors in various sectors anxious.

"I'm still a bit short!"

"I was 1001 just now, now I'm 1002."

"No time left!"

"Kill!"

"You won't make it into the top 1001 anyway. If you let me kill you, I'll reward you handsomely once we're out."

"You're full of it! Reward me handsomely? The virtual universe system won't even notarize such a thing. It sounds good now, but once we're out, you'll deny it, and what can I do?"

In the final moments of the countdown, chaos erupted in every World Sector.

But Luo Feng waited silently.

"10... 9... 8... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1! Teleportation."

All survivors in the 100 World Sectors instantly vanished, and then the virtual worlds themselves collapsed and dissipated, turning into nothingness. At the same time, the final rankings for each World Sector were fully announced to the public.

The preliminary selection was over!

The candidates had been chosen!

...

Luo Feng was teleported above Black Dragon Mountain Island.

"Beep!" "Beep!" "Beep!" "Beep!" "Beep!" "Beep!"...

A series of notification sounds.

"Luo Feng, you have 371 call requests. Oh, now it's 398 call requests. Ah, it's still rising." Babata's familiar voice rang out.

"Haha, Babata, it's been a while since I heard your voice." Luo Feng stood above Black Dragon Mountain Island. At this moment, several figures were faintly visible in the sky, all having emerged alive from the preliminary selection world. But being alive didn't mean making it into the top 1001.

"All virtual assistants were forbidden in that World Sector," Babata said helplessly. "The virtual universe system is just too powerful; there's no way to resist it."

"Hmm." Luo Feng nodded.

As long as one was in the universe, consciousness could instantly connect to the virtual universe network, allowing countless people to enter. Even in the virtual universe, countless secret techniques could be simulated, and even origin laws could be simulated... This was truly terrifying. Perhaps even origin laws were no longer secrets in this virtual universe!

The Virtual Universe Company, one of the five major giants of the cosmic human race.

Moreover, the other four giants hadn't mastered such technology; building the 'virtual universe' was the Virtual Universe Company's exclusive technique. This only deepened the awe for the Virtual Universe Company's profound foundation.

"You now have 453 call requests and 892 emails," Babata said.

"Let's leave the virtual universe first." Luo Feng thought, and his consciousness moved.

Whoosh!

His consciousness returned to reality, then reconnected to the virtual universe.

Whoosh!

On the lawn in front of Luo Feng's residence in the Nine Star Bay Community on Black Dragon Mountain Island, Luo Feng appeared out of thin air.

From reality to the virtual universe, if one owned property, it could be set up so that upon entering the virtual universe, they would directly appear at the entrance of their home in the Nine Star Bay Community.

"Big Brother, Third Brother." A familiar voice sounded.

Hong and Luo Feng, who had appeared almost simultaneously at their own doors, turned to look. It was Lei Shen. Immediately, Luo Feng and Hong walked over.

"You two did well. One ranked 982, the other 51." Lei Shen pouted. "But I had terrible luck, practically stepped in dog poop. I actually ran into the 'savage' of our World Sector. That savage was too abnormal, definitely crossed the threshold of origin laws. He killed me in one move."

"That strong?"

Luo Feng and Hong were both surprised.

"Yeah." Lei Shen then smiled. "If Big Brother and Third Brother met that savage, you'd definitely do better than me. Since you both made it into the top 1001, you might even encounter that savage in the arena battles."

"I barely scraped into the top 1001, but Third Brother is stronger," Hong said, smiling at Luo Feng.

"Indeed, Third Brother is very strong," Lei Shen also nodded.

Hong and Lei Shen were much older than Luo Feng, always feeling like they were looking after a younger brother, but it was clear this younger brother possessed astonishing combat power.

"Third Brother, keep working hard. The stronger you are, the brighter the future for our Earth will be." Hong patted Luo Feng's shoulder.

"Dad."

"Luo Feng."

At this moment, a group of people also appeared out of thin air at their doorstep; it was Luo Feng's family.

...

The preliminary selection was over!

The top 1001 from each World Sector passed the preliminary selection, totaling 100,100 people across all 100 World Sectors. At the same time, the first-place winner from each World Sector directly secured a final spot.

The top 1000 from the Ganwu Universe Nation were qualified to participate in the ultimate genius battle of the entire cosmic human race. These 1000 individuals would then represent the entire Ganwu Universe Nation and compete against numerous geniuses from other vast cosmic nations... to determine the most brilliant and peerless individuals in the entire cosmic human race.

The Ganwu Universe Nation had 1000 spots. Now, the first-place winners from each World Sector directly claimed one spot, taking a total of 100 spots.

The remaining 100,000 people would compete for the remaining 900 spots!

Luo Feng, Hong, and Nabini from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire would be among the 100,000 powerhouses vying for selection. Only 900 out of 100,000 would qualify for a spot.

The elimination rate remained extremely high!

Those who secured a final spot were all enviable super geniuses, the most elite prospects coveted by countless organizations and powers, each considered a 'special elite.'

...

The preliminary selection was over, and the arena battles were scheduled for a month later.

However, during this month, Luo Feng experienced the 'troubles of fame.' Many forces from the Black Dragon Mountain Empire came knocking, and not only that, but even some super organizations from the Ganwu Universe Nation sent people to find Luo Feng, hoping he would join them and take up a position within their organization!

"Refuse them, all of them."

"Just tell them I'm in seclusion, fully preparing for the upcoming arena battles, and cannot be distracted." Luo Feng was also vexed and helpless, so he could only resort to this method.

...

On the 16th day after the preliminary selection ended,

On Mars in the Solar System,

Luo Feng was testing his Yan Shen Weapon on the sand-swept planet.

"Illusory Sword Style!"

"Go!"

"Return."

Luo Feng controlled a golden illusory sword, which transformed into a golden rainbow, flying through the air and then returning. Occasionally, he would also control the golden illusory sword to perform some complex trajectory movements, but the control felt noticeably stiff, far from fluid.

"In the arena battles, all my opponents will be powerful, at least at Big Brother's level. There will be many on par with me! Some will even be incredibly strong."

"At that time, I'll probably have to bring out my Yan Shen Weapon from the start." Luo Feng knew very well that every opponent in the arena battles would be a powerhouse, and he had to use his trump card from the beginning and push forward relentlessly.

He hoped to make it into the top 1000.

Only then would he be qualified to compete against the super powerhouses from numerous other cosmic nations.

"Luo Feng, quickly enter the virtual universe," Babata's voice rang out.

"Oh?" Luo Feng wondered.

...

In the Nine Star Bay Community on Black Dragon Mountain Island in the virtual universe,

When Luo Feng appeared at his doorstep, he immediately saw many guests sitting in his living room.

"Brother, Hong and Lei Shen are inside entertaining guests, you should go in quickly," Luo Hua said as he saw Luo Feng arrive.

"Who is it?" Luo Feng asked, puzzled.

Hadn't he refused all organizations?

"It's a special envoy team sent by the Emperor of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire," Luo Hua whispered. "This special envoy team is said to be carrying orders personally issued by the Emperor. The leader of the special envoy team is a Sector Lord, reportedly of extremely high status. The team also includes the Emperor of the Silverblue Empire, an 'elementary cosmic civilization nation.'"

"The Emperor of the Silverblue Empire?" Luo Feng was startled.

The Silverblue Empire was a cosmic nation that governed the Milky Way Galaxy and eight other star systems. The Emperor of this nation had actually come with the special envoy team.

"They are mainly here for you, Brother," Luo Hua said.

"I'll go in and see." Luo Feng nodded, then strode directly towards the living room.
