470 Mental Strength Index (3)
“Explode!” Manflix’s mind stirred.
The 100-kilometer-tall giant and the binding energy that enveloped the surroundings suddenly exploded! That instant was marked by the appearance of a dazzling ‘sun’ on the planet!
In the center of the explosion, a huge mushroom cloud spanning 200 to 300 kilometers rose into outer space. The shockwave swept across the entire planet, and spears shot in all directions.
The maximum energy Manflix could draw upon and the explosive use of the maximized might were enough to destroy a peak Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform.
Huh? Manflix’s expression suddenly changed—he saw something.
At ground zero, Xu Jingming used the two shields in his hands as a frame. Intangible light extended and covered every part of his body.
When this light gathered, it resembled a miniature planet. Xu Jingming himself was inside the miniature planet.
The miniature planet looked like the Primordial Star.
He blocked the destructive explosion? He wasn’t even injured? Manflix knew things were going south.
Boom!
Having blocked the first wave of the explosions, Xu Jingming continued charging at Manflix.
Manflix was also very fast, but he was inferior to Xu Jingming. The distance between them was rapidly shrinking.
“What a powerful movement technique and shield technique… Also, your control over Cosmic Force is so exquisite?” Manflix knew that he couldn’t escape, so he stopped. “You actually blocked the Big Bang of that scale!?”
Typically, opponents at the same level would be seriously injured even if they survived the Big Bang. They weren’t like Xu Jingming—the miniature planet had completely sheltered him from the Big Bang.
Xu Jingming wasn’t injured at all.
“You pursue the greatest might, whereas I pursue the greatest control.” Xu Jingming rushed close.
Manflix extended his hand and tapped gently. He smiled and said, “I admit defeat. Forget it; it’s impossible for me to defeat you if I stay as a Lv. 8 cosmic lifeform. It’s my honor to fight you in my final apex battle.”
Following that, Manflix took the initiative to admit defeat.
The match ended.
“My final apex battle? What does Manflix mean?”
“Manflix is preparing to give up on apex battles?”
“Is he about to become an Origin lifeform?”
“His match with Wu Ming made him want to become an Origin lifeform?”
Countless cosmic citizen spectators discussed.
At this strength, they weren’t surprised that he could become an Origin lifeform. What they were surprised about… was that this had become Manflix’s final battle.
He’s giving up on Battle of the Universe’s Apex? Xu Jingming guessed what the other party meant and was a little surprised.
How would he know that Manflix already had the intention of quitting before this battle?
He’s actually very strong. If I use my spearmanship, I won’t be able to withstand his attacks, Xu Jingming thought.
On the planet that had been reduced to a sorry state, he received an email from the system before he could exit the combat world.
Xu Jingming tapped.
The email content was simple—
Mr. Wu Ming, since you have reached tenth place in the Hunter Cosmic Sector, you will obtain the right to challenge the top ten in other cosmic sectors. From today onward, you have the privilege to engage in a battle across cosmic sectors! (Your login equipment experiences zero lag across the universe; there’s no need to change it.)
Cross-sector combat? Xu Jingming’s eyes lit up.
I’ve long heard that the top ten of every cosmic sector are qualified to fight across cosmic sectors. 34 cosmic sectors means they are the 340 strongest experts. Xu Jingming looked forward to it as he opened his personal interface.
With a light tap—
Arrange a battle!
“A battle has been successfully scheduled. You will fight Lord Thousand Mountains of the Ancient River Cosmic Sector at 20:50 tomorrow,” the system notified.
At the same time—
The entire Life Evolution game platform also issued an announcement:
Battle of the Universe’s Apex: Hunter Cosmic Sector’s Wu Ming vs. Ancient River Cosmic Sector’s Lord Thousand Mountains. (Reserve a spot!)
There were four more similar announcements.
There were a few cross-sector battles almost every day! These kinds of battles would also be extremely popular because many cosmic sector viewers would watch.
“Brother Wu Ming is about to fight across cosmic sectors? Wow, how exciting!” ×100
This message appeared across the platform. Moreover, it appeared 100 times!
It was without a doubt Brother Qu Fang again.
…
The Battle of the Universe’s Apex had a unique way of calculating combat strength. Although Xu Jingming defeated the Hunter Cosmic Sector’s ninth place once, and his combat strength increased, he only reached tenth place in his cosmic sector.
But with this, he was quite excited to have the privilege to fight across cosmic sectors.
It was too difficult to arrange a battle previously!
Now that he could engage in cross-sector combat? The candidate expansion made it much easier to have a battle arranged.
After participating in a Battle of the Universe’s Apex and some random team matches, he ended the livestream. He rarely had individual matches in Battle of the Universe’s Apex, so he had no choice but to make up for it with a team competition.
I should be able to undergo a mental strength test today. I’ll do the test first. Xu Jingming arrived at the Primordial Research Institute’s virtual world.
There were only six peripheral members on this island now. Senior Brother Gu Shan and Senior Sister Moyu had already become Origin lifeforms after all.
“Master.” The smart bot, Hunter 1027, immediately came to welcome him.
Xu Jingming nodded and headed for the cultivation chamber.
In the cultivation chamber.
Xu Jingming sat cross-legged and began to release his mental strength completely to attack the cultivation chamber’s wall.
Buzz!
The cultivation chamber’s wall trembled slightly.
An invisible force enveloped the cultivation chamber and analyzed his mental strength.
About three minutes later.
The results are out. Xu Jingming was also looking forward to it. After all, he could only apply for a test every 330 days.
The appraisal results appeared in front of him—
Mental Strength: 9991
