447 Countless Experts (2)
The Primordial Research Institute’s geniuses and the other 16 top factions’ geniuses would give Battle of the Universe’s Apex a try on their Origin lifeform path to gain an understanding of their actual bat strength. Therefore, there were too many experts in this battle.
“This Wu Ming seems to have been dealt a blow.”
“He finally lost after 30 consecutive wins; he’s probably shaken. He’s studying the replay over and over again.”
“The system will automatically assign him more powerful opponents due to his consecutive wins. Unfortunately, he only managed 30 consecutive wins. I’ve heard that one can encounter some terrifying opponents if they have 100 consecutive wins. For example, the top 100 in the Hunter Cosmic Sector.”
!!
At this moment, more than a million cosmic citizens were watching. After all, he had won consecutive victories—especially after defeating several celebrity contestants—so he naturally attracted many fans. For example, Artisan Atien was among the top 1,000 in the Frost Star Alliance. His normal battles garnered more than ten million viewers, so it was very easy to gain fans when fighting such a celebrity expert.
I was inferior. Xu Jingming studied it several times before stopping. He swept his gaze and was surprised to see the number of online viewers beside him—1053791.
More than a million people are watching me? I’ve been studying the replay for ten minutes, but they’re still watching me? Xu Jingming was a little ashamed and pleasantly surprised.
He felt ashamed because he was studying the replay despite having more than a million people watching him. He didn’t say a word the entire time and was a little disrespectful to the audience.
He was pleasantly surprised because many audience members were fans of his opponents! And the audience at this moment… were undoubtedly his fans.
Xu Jingming opened the interface and tapped. In his vision, countless stands appeared in the distance.
The stands were filled with dense cosmic citizen audience members that exceeded a million.
“I’m sorry.” He looked at the audience and said, “This is the first time I’m seriously participating in Battle of the Universe’s Apex. I’m inexperienced and didn’t notice everyone. It’s been hours, but I haven’t said a word to anyone.”
“What?”
“Is he apologizing to us?”
“This peak Lv. 8 is quite nice!”
The audience was used to Xu Jingming ignoring them, so they were surprised when he suddenly spoke. After all, peak Lv. 8s were all big shots in reality. When participating in apex battles, some were focused on live-streaming, so they naturally interacted with the audience in all aspects. They also wanted to have greater influence and obtain higher ine. Another type was focused on bat, and many ignored the audience.
If it weren’t for the requirement that viewers were allowed to watch Battle of the Universe’s Apex, many experts probably would’ve turned off the livestream.
“I usually focus on bat.” Xu Jingming also looked at the audience’s information stream and explained with a smile, “Therefore, I won’t interact with everyone during bat! When the battle ends and I’m free, I’ll chat with everyone.”
After every battle ended, he would reflect and review the battles. With his brain at the limit of Lv. 8, it was very easy for him to multitask as he reflected and reviewed.
“It’s already good enough that you can interact with us.”
“Best of luck, Wu Ming. I’m also from the Oohook Star Alliance!”
“Does this Wu Ming also have eyes on his fans’ money?”
As the audience discussed, countless messages streamed past.
“Nobody needs to give me tips,” Xu Jingming stated.
He estimated that he would bee an Origin lifeform in 200 years, so he naturally didn’t care about this. He might be able to earn a billion cosmic dollars a year from managing his fandom, but he wasn’t willing to spend time on this.
He wanted to focus all his energy on bat and pursue his limits.
As for chatting with the audience, he felt that it was only right. After all, with so many cosmic citizens paying attention to him, he felt pelled to do it out of goodwill.
He naturally had to repay them with kindness. This was basic courtesy.
Xu Jingming said, “Alright, I’ll continue with the next battle.”
With that said, he opened the preparatory interface.
“This Wu Ming turned off the tipping function.”
“I can’t tip anymore.”
“He doesn’t want tips, and he’s so friendly.”
“How heartwarming. I think this Wu Ming is so cool. He’s cooler than the songstress, Bayu.”
“You’re paring a singer to a peak Lv. 8? How are they even parable?”
“According to my judgment, this Wu Ming is suspected to be from the Primordial Research Institute. This is the first time he’s focusing on Battle of the Universe’s Apex, so he should be very young. He’s young, and he’s from the Primordial Research Institute… His future is limitless! He might bee an Origin lifeform in the future!”
These audience members were all cosmic citizens, and there were many hidden talents among them. After more than 30 consecutive matches, they deduced a lot of information about Xu Jingming.
******
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month passed.
Xu Jingming’s schedule was very tight. Every day, he had to study scientific knowledge, study Light Rays, and cultivate his visualization. He spent the remaining six hours fighting battles in Battle of the Universe’s Apex! The rest of the time was spent studying the battle replays and reviewing his wins and losses.
He had to constantly reflect and review before he could gradually improve.
He didn’t have much time to spend with his wife and daughter every day, so he felt like he owed them something. However, he came to a realization when refining a Heaven Demon obsession for the first time—he had to burn himself and devote himself to the evolutionary path!
I’ve gained quite a lot from this half a month of bat. In terms of actual bat techniques, I’ve improved more than in the past decade or so. In just half a month, Xu Jingming’s actual bat bonus had exceeded 70×. Of course, this was also because the demons he encountered in Demon Vanquishing World had ordinary bat techniques and didn’t pose any challenge.
He didn’t spend much effort on actual bat. He mainly focused on mental tempering.
Now, he had focused on it for more than half a month! His ten-plus years of Light Rays prehension was constantly fused into his actual bat techniques, so he naturally improved very quickly.
However, my rise in the Oohook Star Alliance rankings is starting to slow down. Xu Jingming looked at his current ranking—
Oohook Star Alliance Ranking: 1239
As for the Hunter Cosmic Sector, he still couldn’t enter the top 100,000.
It’s indeed very difficult to be in the top 100,000 in the Hunter Cosmic Sector, Xu Jingming thought. The Primordial Research Institute recruits about 500 peripheral members every 10,000 years in the Hunter Cosmic Sector. Other than the three strongest factions, the other 14 factions recruit thousands of peripheral members every 10,000 years in the Hunter Cosmic Sector. The total number from the 14 factions… numbers in the tens of thousands.
Therefore, the top 100,000 people in Hunter Cosmic Sector are either very old and have nearly perfect bat techniques as peak Lv. 8s, or they are geniuses from top factions. Xu Jingming knew that none of these people were to be trifled with.
He might be talented, but he was still young.
Take it slow.
Xu Jingming was still patient, but he was also ambitious. He wanted to be at the forefront of the Hunter Cosmic Sector or even the entire universe.
Huh? Xu Jingming received a notification and tapped gently.
“Senior Brother Gu Shan,” Xu Jingming greeted.
“Haha, Junior Brother Wu Ming, I’m hosting a banquet at the usual place in Primordial City.” Senior Brother Gu Shan laughed heartily.
“Senior Brother, have you broken through?” Xu Jingming asked in surprise.
“Yes, I’ve bee an official member of the Primordial Research Institute.” Gu Shan was in a good mood. “e quickly. I’m already waiting for everyone.”
“I’m on my way.” Xu Jingming was also delighted. Of the eight people in the Hunter Cosmic Sector’s Primordial Star Conjecture lineage, his eldest senior brother had finally bee an Origin lifeform.
This was great news.
…
Xu Jingming quickly headed for Primordial City and arrived at the top floor of the familiar restaurant.
The moment he entered, he saw Senior Brother Gu Shan, Senior Brother Redeye, and Senior Sister Monina chatting happily.
