As the Ganwu Universe Country's world preliminary elimination rounds concluded, the lists of all direct qualifiers to the top 1,000 in the Ganwu Universe Country and the 100,000 participants for the arena competition were released.
About twenty members from the Molten Rock Secret Realm entered the arena competition stage, among whom Twelve core members entered the arena competition stage, with two being eliminated in the world preliminary elimination rounds by Geniuses who had also comprehended Laws.
Regarding this, World Master Molten Rock was accustomed to it; a few Geniuses who had comprehended Laws being eliminated in the world preliminary elimination rounds was already proof of the brutality of the world preliminary elimination rounds.
In previous sessions, there were also some Geniuses who had comprehended Laws who were eliminated; it just so happened that this session had two such individuals from the Molten Rock Empire.
Moreover, most of the core members of the Molten Rock Secret Realm participating in this Pinnacle Genius Battle, apart from Ender, had limited potential and talent, so World Master Molten Rock did not hold much hope for them.
Because most of the core members of this session were already over five thousand years old with limited potential, only two or three were not over five thousand years old.
In the Virtual Universe palace, after reviewing the list, World Master Molten Rock said to World Master Azure Wood, "It was somewhat unexpected that Ender did not achieve the world's first place."
"It doesn't matter whether he gets the world's first place or not," World Master Azure Wood replied, "With his Law comprehension nearing the Understanding Realm, he can easily enter the Ganwu Universe Country's Top 1,000."
The so-called Understanding Realm is one of the Law comprehension Realms roughly categorized by some World Masters in the Ganwu Universe Country who have not entered the Beginning Universe, based on their own understanding.
And these five levels are respectively: Initial Comprehension, Entry, Understanding, Acknowledgment, and Thorough Comprehension.
Initial Comprehension means just having comprehended the Law, with Law comprehension limited to a single essence.
Entry means Law comprehension involves multiple essences, but no essence has been thoroughly comprehended.
Understanding means Law comprehension involves all essences, and at least three essences have been thoroughly comprehended.
Acknowledgment means gaining the acknowledgment of the Law, receiving the Law Acknowledgment Imprint bestowed by the Original Universe.
Thorough Comprehension means completely comprehending the Law; one only needs to control the body one hundred percent and break the core to Breakthrough to become an Immortal.
When Ender first learned about their classification of Law comprehension from World Master Azure Wood, he only felt that their classification of Law comprehension was too rough, not as detailed as the Tongtian Bridge levels.
"Indeed," World Master Molten Rock nodded slightly.
According to what he knew, Ender had already thoroughly comprehended one essence of the Wood Origin Law, and his comprehension involved multiple essences, nearing the Understanding Realm.
With such a level of Law comprehension, it would be an accident if he did not enter the Ganwu Universe Country's one thousand-person list.
"Guret, speaking of which, I still have to thank you this time," World Master Azure Wood said earnestly, "It is you who gave me the opportunity to guide a Genius like Ender Royce; if he becomes a super-strong expert in the future, this experience of guiding a super-strong expert will be enough for me to boast about for a lifetime."
Upon hearing this, World Master Molten Rock saw that World Master Azure Wood's expression was serious, with no intention of joking, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
When he thought of Ender's astonishing talent, he understood.
In his millions of years of career, it was also the first time he had seen a Genius like Ender.
Cultivating for a few years to comprehend the Law, and in a few decades, his Law comprehension improved to near the Understanding Realm, and what was even more terrifying was that he was a Stellar Rank, not a World Master!
If it were a World Master, it would be acceptable for him to raise his Law comprehension to near the Understanding Realm within a few decades, but on a Stellar Rank, it was simply too terrifying.
"Indeed," World Master Molten Rock also chuckled and said, "This is also enough for me to boast about for a lifetime; if I can become an Immortal, I can boast forever."
"Guret, you…" World Master Azure Wood was puzzled; it was the first time he had seen World Master Molten Rock smilingly mention becoming an Immortal.
"It doesn't matter, the probability of Ender entering the top 1,000 in the Universe this time is very high," World Master Molten Rock said with a smile, "Even if he doesn't make it this time, he can make it next time."
Then, he paused for a moment, sighing, "If even he cannot enter the top 1,000 in the Universe, then it means I am destined to have no connection with becoming an Immortal." World Master Azure Wood remained silent, because he, whose Law comprehension was extremely close to Immortal, found it difficult to understand World Master Molten Rock's inner thoughts.
…
Molten Rock Secret Realm, Virtual Universe.
Having finished the world preliminary elimination rounds, Ender enjoyed the calm after the frantic slaughter; not being bloodthirsty, he was somewhat tired of the long-term intense killing.
"Little Dawn, check how many messages and call requests I have."
As Ender's words fell, a delicate-faced little elf dressed in green clothes, twenty centimeters tall with wings, appeared, flapping her small wings and flying in the air.
Little Dawn was the intelligent assistant he bought to help him handle some trivial matters in the Original Universe and Virtual Universe.
Little Dawn's pleasant voice rang out, "Master, there are 153 messages and 132 call requests."
"So many?" Ender was a little surprised; he was not a Genius without a faction; as a core member of the Molten Rock Secret Realm, he was by default a member of the Molten Rock Empire.
Logically speaking, for a Genius who has joined an intermediate universe country-level faction, other factions should not send messages and call requests, yet there were still hundreds of messages and call requests.
Ender said, "Except for those from my Family, World Master Molten Rock, and World Master Azure Wood, reject all other messages and call requests."
"Understood, Master," Little Dawn's eyes glowed slightly, and after the glow ended, she said, "All messages and call requests have been rejected."
"Hmm?" Ender was a little surprised and asked, "World Master Molten Rock and World Master Azure Wood didn't send messages or call requests?"
Little Dawn replied, "That's right, Master."
"It's fine if they didn't," after receiving a positive reply, Ender continued, "Little Dawn, video call father."
"Understood, Master," Little Dawn's eyes glowed slightly and she said, "Applying for video call…"
After the video call with his father, Derrick, Ender learned about the current situation of the Family; now the Royce Family was the strongest Family in Morning Light City and even Kuka Planet.
Not only did they hold the position of Morning Light City Lord, but they also had several Stellar Rank members serving as instructors in Morning Light Academy and holding important positions within Morning Light Academy.
Ending the video call with his Family, he entered Cultivation again, preparing for the arena competition a month later.
…
Time flowed, and a month was about to pass.
During this month, most of the participants in the arena competition obtained intelligence on Geniuses collected by various factions.
Especially the participants who displayed their identity as Law Geniuses in the world preliminary elimination rounds; each of their combat videos was recorded and then provided to the participants of their respective factions for study; Ender's intelligence was naturally among them, and it was placed on the list of key concerns.
Ender also received the intelligence collected by the Molten Rock Empire; after receiving the intelligence, he carefully watched it, and he could be said to have a thorough understanding of all the Geniuses who had comprehended Laws.
At this point, the Pinnacle Genius Battle, Ganwu Universe Country arena competition began…
