High-Level Martial Era -
Chapter 266: Chapter 209 Sweep Along the Way_2
```
He, a fourth-level expert, should have had a chance to break into the top 1000 in the entire battlefield.
He might even have gone further.
Yet, he died less than a minute after entering the Star Realm battlefield?
"Very weak."
"This kind of battlefield environment does have a certain tempering effect on third or even fourth-level experts, but it's indeed not very significant for me." Li Yuan killed the opponent with one move, his heart unfazed.
"Boom~" "Boom~" "Boom~" the ground trembled.
These Star Realm creatures, stepping over the headless corpse, immediately rushed towards Li Yuan in a frenzy.
Splurt! Swoosh~! Swoosh! Li Yuan waved his long spear in his hand, with spear light dancing, the multitude of Star Realm creatures, that looked like wild yaks, kept on dying as they charged at him.
They couldn't even touch Li Yuan.
"These Star Realm creatures are generally at the initial stage of second-level skills, about the same as the true Alien Race of the Star Realm." Li Yuan assessed the strength of these Star Realm creatures.
Most of the Star Realm creatures, with low intelligence, largely fight on instinct, and their combat skills are naturally weak.
In just tens of seconds, the remaining nearly hundred Star Realm creatures were all killed by Li Yuan.
Li Yuan checked the smart ring on his wrist.
----
Contestant: Li Yuan (Xia Country)
Base points: 300
Starfield points: 89
Total points: 389
Battlefield ranking: 1834
..."To have killed so many in such a short time and only rank a little over a thousand? It seems that right at the start of the competition, there's already quite a bit of fighting among each other." Li yuan muttered to himself, "However, my goal is to be the first in the battlefield and directly enter the finals."
"Let's keep killing."
...
The smart ring provided a rough directional guide.
Li Yuan casually chose a direction to move forward, quickly leaving the wilderness behind and entering a forested area.
In the forested terrain, the rocky mountains and tall trees provided excellent cover for concealing one's tracks.
Over forty thousand people, scattered across a circular battlefield with a diameter of about 100 kilometers, was actually very sparse; logically, unless a battle erupted, it would be quite difficult to detect each other's traces.
Unfortunately, Li Yuan was one of the very few exceptions.
"Come out." Li Yuan, like a shooting star, suddenly plunged, his long spear hissing as it thrust straight toward a large tree.
Whoosh! A figure darted from behind the tree, franticly fleeing to one side, his face showing a mix of shock and anger.
He didn't recognize Li Yuan, but that didn't prevent him from judging from Li Yuan's burst speed—that this was a super expert.
Whosh!
The spear thrust that seemed direct suddenly shifted, lightning-fast circling around the tree, and violently piercing through the fleeing figure's neck, blood spraying.
Dead!
Splurt~! The long spear retracted, and the body heavily fell onto the grass.
"You must be curious how I discovered you." Li Yuan murmured to himself, "I couldn't see you, but your breathing gave you away."
The perception of Unity of Heaven and Man was too keen.
...
In the higher levels of the Spectator Space, with over a hundred thousand Prime Warriors and dozens of Flying Heaven Warriors from around the globe watching,
Aside from tracking some they 'fancied', they were also paying attention to the figure of the young man in black on the distant, gigantic screen.
Li Yuan?
With a Star Master personally descending to watch, what was so special about this Li Yuan?
And when they saw Li Yuan consecutively replace and effortlessly kill one contestant after another, easily wiping out a large number of Star Realm creatures,
"Fifth level."
"He must have fifth-level skills."
"This Li Yuan must have reached the unity of man and heaven at the fifth level, otherwise his perception wouldn't be so strong, nor his spear technique so formidable."
"It seems he is a freshman."
```
"Right, a freshman, in the same batch as Dantai Feng," many Prime Warriors—even Top Grade Origin Martial Artists—were already discussing in low voices, filled with wonder and shock.
Martial Artists from the age of 18 often saw their physical quality skyrocket, their foundations constantly improve, and their skill breakthroughs becoming increasingly easier.
Therefore, reaching the Fifth Stage as a freshman and stepping into the Fifth Stage as a sophomore were completely different concepts.
The latter is strong too, with the potential to become a Flying Heaven Warrior, a top-tier genius among their peers across Blue Star.
But the former is absolutely the top-tier genius among their peers, looking across the entire Seven Star Alliance and the Seven Great Planets.
The emergence of a Dantai Feng among the freshman class had already shaken all Martial Arts Universities around the world, and now another one had popped up?
"Fifth Stage?"
"To be on the same level as Dantai Feng? Indeed, a once-in-an-age genius, extremely formidable."
"However, just based on this, it shouldn't be worth the Star Master personally coming to watch the melee battle, right? The finals would be more like it." Dozens of Flying Heaven Warriors were surprised by Li Yuan's strength, but they also harbored doubts.
Whether it was Dantai Feng or Li Yuan, while they had the potential to become top-tier Flying Heaven Warriors, they were ultimately just that—potentials, still only geniuses.
But the Star Master was already at the pinnacle of human civilization.
...
The combat space where students from millions of Martial Arts Universities around the world were located was buzzing with voices.
Everyone was watching tensely, all while keeping an eye on the rankings above.
"So many talents."
"I thought our institute's Senior Brother was awesome, but as soon as he took to the field, he got taken out by a single spear thrust from someone named Li Yuan," complained a student from Europa.
As spectators, they could see the identity information of the combatants.
"Strong!"
"Dantai Feng is truly fierce, taking down any opponent with a single strike, truly deserving of being Xia Country's strongest genius."
"Yin Man is also impressive."
"In the leaderboard of the top hundred from each Star Realm battlefield, our Xia Country's experts account for more than 30%, and nearly one-third of the broadcast top hundred are from our Xia Country." Students from Xia Country were incredibly excited and exceedingly proud.
This kind of competition was a time when the sense of honor was extremely strong.
The hundred screens broadcasting in the entire combat space showed the top ten from each battlefield, and adding up ten battlefields made up the hundred.
"Haha, our Silla Country's Han Haochang is really formidable; he's already made it to ninth in the seventh battlefield," some students from Silla Country were overwhelmingly excited.
"We believe in Han Haochang, he will surely become the number one on the battlefield! He'll advance directly to the finals."
...
"Senior Brother is very strong."
"No one can stop Senior Brother."
"From what I've seen so far, not a single one can withstand a spear from Li Yuan," said the tens of thousands of watching students from Kunlun Martial University, most concerned about Li Yuan, Jin Huguo.
"Senior Brother Jin has charged to sixth place on the first Star Realm battlefield, Senior Brother Jin is even more fierce."
"Li Yuan is powerful, but his battlefield ranking is only eighty-sixth, not too high up in front, which is somewhat inferior to Senior Brother Jin."
"The melee battles have just begun, Li Yuan's random location was rather far out, encountering fewer opponents, which is why his score isn't too high."
"We believe in Senior Brother; he will surely rush into the top twenty or even the top ten later on," discussed the students from Kunlun Martial University.
The students of Kunlun Martial University basically still thought that Jin Huguo was stronger.
Even the freshmen from the Sixth Institute subconsciously believed that Li Yuan was slightly inferior.
It wasn't without reason!
The reputation that Jin Huguo had built up before was simply too great, and Li Yuan's rise to fame was just too short.

ps: Regarding merging chapters, I will explain once.
My daily updates are based on a standard of 3,000 words per chapter.
For example, if I update three chapters today, I will ensure a total word count of over nine thousand words; if it's four chapters today, I will make sure that the total is more than twelve thousand words, but the specific word count might be four thousand for one chapter, or less than three thousand for another.
Like yesterday, including the merged chapters, it was a total of 1.4 ten thousand words.
Also, why merge chapters? I don't shy away from admitting that it's to push for a hundred thousand subscribers. Right now, the average subscription is nearing seventy thousand, and if I update too many chapters in a short time, the average won't climb.
In the future, I might merge three into one, or even four into one, or five into one, it's not impossible.
Thanks for the brothers' support!
