(5000 words, requesting monthly ticket) Xu Mo, first!
Countless gazes landed on Xu Mo, and the audience did not react for a moment.
However, shortly after, numerous shouts erupted from the spectator seats, followed by thunderous booing.
The two types of sound mixed together once again.
Although it was only temporary, he was still first.
In Chuanxing City, countless gazes also turned towards Xu Mo.

A wave of discussions broke out; Xu Mo had actually secured the first place in the top fifty preliminary rankings, surpassing the Alien Race and Augustine.
Although Xu Mo’s talent was strong, that position, they feared, was not quite a match for him yet.
“Xu Mo has taken the first place in this Transcendent competition, so in the next round, he will face Ice Man Nalita,” the commentator paused before continuing, “According to previous combat power predictions, Nalita is ranked eighteenth, and Xu Mo twenty-first.
Could Xu Mo become the first contestant in the history of the Transcendent competition to be dethroned from the first rank in the top fifty competition?”
In Chuanxing City, many people were discussing this possibility, which seemed quite likely.

The strength of Ice Man Nalita was formidable and she was also from an Alien origin.
If she defeated Xu Mo in the next match, then Xu Mo would create an embarrassing history.
In the history of the Transcendent competition, no one ranked first had ever been eliminated or replaced in the top fifty competition.
But Xu Mo might just make this embarrassing record.
Xu Mo’s talent was strong, but his strength was far from matching the ranking of first.
The ranking battle ended, and the seats from fifty-first to one hundredth were now confirmed, those contestants were eliminated, but the top fifty rankings were temporary and there would still be many changes, even the first place was unstable.
The spectators felt somewhat unfulfilled, as compared to the previous rounds, this battle had the shortest duration and was the least satisfying.
But there was no helping it, since reaching the top hundred, it wasn’t possible to decide the winner in one go, and after a battle, many needed time to recuperate, such as Mechanical Masters whose Mechas had been damaged; continuing to fight would be unfair.
To achieve relative fairness, each person would only fight one battle.
However, the next round wouldn’t be such a melee, but separate battles instead, allowing spectators to see twenty-five top-tier clashes at once, which would be more thrilling.
After this top hundred ranking battle, Xu Mo once again became the center of attention.
This controversial genius had been disputed from the start to the end.
This might be the most undeserved ‘first’ in the history of the Transcendent competition.
However, his luck did not seem so good either.
Nalita appeared in the fiftieth place, Xu Mo had hoped to face a weaker opponent in the next round of battles, but contrary to his wishes, he still faced the relatively higher-ranked Ice Man Nalita.
Due to Xu Mo, Stark Group had been very popular recently.
Stark Group did not care so much about the promotional effects of the Transcendent competition anymore, even if they recruited some powerful figures and ranked high, it wouldn’t make much of an impact.
Representatives from Black Shield Company were seeded number tenth.
But compared to the topic of Xu Mo, they were not on the same level.
Thus, Stark Group unintentionally benefited.
Stark Hao received a message from Xu Mo, two words.
Add money!
Being ranked first temporarily was still being first, it was hugely controversial, he definitely needed more money.
Stark cursed this guy for his greed, and transferred the money with a heavy heart.
“Ice Man Nalita, you have studied her before, her superpower somewhat counters yours,” Stark said.
“Use the previous Mecha tomorrow, switch to a sword,” Xu Mo replied.
Nalita’s movement technique speed was also very strong, the Heavy Shield attack was somewhat inappropriate against Nalita who took a lighter approach.
“Okay,” Stark Hao replied.
Tommorrow’s battle against Nalita might still have some suspense; after all, the predicted combat power rankings of the two were only three places apart.
However, if Xu Mo could get through this one, each of the following rounds’ opponents would not be easy to provoke.
“The seed player ranked twenty-fifth is from Black Shield Group, the next match he will surely win.
If you defeat Nalita, then next, you will face this seeded player,” Stark Hao continued.
“Black Shield Group,” Xu Mo thought of the banquet where Black Shield Group and Lancelot Star colluded.
Hearing Stark say Black Shield Group was their competitor, although Stark Group didn’t think so, Black Shield Group aimed to surpass Stark Group and had always been courting the Lancelot Star People, hoping to get advanced mechanical technology from Lancelot Star.
As for this, Stark Group was somewhat disdainful; the people from Lancelot Star were just a bunch of nobles after all, and while they brought some technology, they would not hand over the core technology to them, and they looked down on the natives of Byron Star with discrimination—Black Shield Group shamelessly moved forward.
If Xu Mo defeated Nalita, that seed player from Black Shield Group might take a tough approach against Xu Mo.
Black Shield Group had been keeping an eye on Stark Group, and Xu Mo represented Stark Group.
“If I beat Black Shield Group, how much will you add?” Xu Mo asked.
“First defeat Ice Man Nalita,” Stark said helplessly, this guy really was aiming too high.
The outside world was not optimistic about Xu Mo, thinking his holding onto the first place was not a good look.
“Okay,” Xu Mo didn’t say much anything else, his main target indeed was Ice Man Nalita.
He began to reevaluate Nalita’s combat.
……
The next day, the people of Chuanxing City rose early, and those who had bought tickets to the Transcendent competition’s arena also entered early.
