Chapter 1098: Chapter 1045 Aurora Flush

“That Ye Chen, how is he so fast!”

Moko Ye, who was trailing behind Ye Chen, saw Ye Chen climbing the star vines nearby and heading toward the finish faster than him. This left him both shocked and shamed.

What shocked Moko Ye was that even though he climbed the star vines at his fastest speed, he still couldn’t catch up with Ye Chen!

What shamed him was the thought that, even though this first round of competition wouldn’t determine rankings, if Ye Chen reached the finish first, it would be a huge blow to his reputation as the top-ranked figure on the Star Domain God King Ranking and the Divine King in whom the Moko Divine Country placed great hope.

“This first round is about both combat power and speed, but it’s mainly about speed. Losing to Ye Chen like this, I’m not convinced!”

Just as Moko Ye was despairing over Ye Chen nearly reaching the finish line while being unable to catch up, he was feeling frustrated.

Suddenly.

Moko Ye saw Ye Chen fall directly from the top of the star vine.

“What happened?”

“Is there some particular danger at the top of the star vine? Did Ye Chen get knocked down?”

No matter what, Moko Ye couldn’t have imagined that after climbing one star vine, Ye Chen didn’t want to stop there. Instead of going to the finish line, he chose to climb a second star vine.

However, at this moment, Moko Ye didn’t have time to think too much.

Finally seeing Ye Chen having trouble, of course, he seized this precious opportunity to overtake him.

Moko Ye cautiously watched out for potential threats at the top of the star vine while climbing up swiftly.

In the end, when Moko Ye was the first to reach the finishing platform above the star vine, he encountered no special dangers.

“Hmm? There’s no danger at the end stage of this star vine, so why did Ye Chen suddenly fall?”

Standing first on the finishing platform, Moko Ye frowned directly.

But in the next moment, his frown relaxed, and he showed a faint smile.

He had no intention of overthinking Ye Chen’s situation.

Victory crowns the king.

This time, he was the first to reach the finish platform of the first round, and that was enough!

“No matter what happened to Ye Chen, he is indeed powerful.”

“However, that Qianqian, rumored to be strong, seems to be just so-so.”

After Moko Ye reached the finish line, he saw several figures arrive shortly after, but after watching more than ten people, he still didn’t see Qianqian, causing him to look down on her even more.

Ye Chen and Qianqian didn’t care about Moko Ye’s thoughts at all.

They didn’t care about Moko Ye being the first to reach the end of the first round either.

In Qianqian’s view, since rankings aren’t decided in the first round, she’d rather climb up easily into the next round than exert herself to fight for a meaningless first place.

In Ye Chen’s eyes, the false reputation of the first round is incomparable to absorbing more Star Vine Divine Light!

Wow!

Amid astonished gazes, Ye Chen directly fell to the bottom of the star vine. During his fall, he had already sent a voice transmission to Jiang Yao, so there was no need to worry that Jiang Yao would worry about him.

Once he fell to the bottom of the star vine, Ye Chen flew directly to the end of another star vine and began climbing upwards again.

Even though Ye Chen started climbing the second star vine, he quickly passed one Divine King after another still climbing the initial star vine, reaching the top again in a short time!

At this point, even if Ye Chen climbed onto the finishing platform, he would definitely make it into the top hundred.

However, just as Ye Chen didn’t care about being first in the first round, he cared even less about being in the top hundred now.

Ye Chen fell again, flew down, and started climbing the third star vine.

The continuous climbing twice already revealed Ye Chen’s intent to many.

“Ye Chen is… he wants to climb more star vines! Is it for the Star Vine Divine Light?!”

The first one to reach the finishing platform, Moko Ye, saw Ye Chen fall again just before reaching the finish and suddenly understood.

What kind of person is Moko Ye?

Of course, he saw that the star vine of this first round posed no danger to Ye Chen at all.

Under such circumstances, Ye Chen’s repeated climbing was surely not out of boredom but for some benefit—the only benefit being the Star Vine Divine Light on the star vines!

“The Star Vine Divine Light is indeed a good thing.”

“If not for competing for the first place in this first round, I’d also like to absorb more Star Vine Divine Light from the vines.”

Understanding the significance of Ye Chen’s actions, Moko Ye felt discontent in his heart.

He knew he’d miss out on considerable Star Vine Divine Light this time for the sake of the empty glory of first place.

Even Moko Ye saw through Ye Chen’s intention, and all the leaders of divine countries and sovereigns in the two large spaces above the Starry Sky Waterfall, as well as big figures from the Ancestral God Temple, naturally understood Ye Chen’s motive for repeatedly climbing new star vines.

“This Ye Chen is indeed extraordinary.”

“The Star Vine Divine Light on the vines is a benefit our Ancestral God Temple provided to the participants in this first round. Ye Chen, not only was the first to reach the finish line but also the first to understand and leverage this opportunity to absorb more benefits.”

“The ranking of the first round means nothing; it’s unlike the Stellar Domain Genius Battle decisive ranking that involves earth-shattering rewards. Instead of competing for rankings, it’s better to secure more benefits in this first round.”

The Divine Master, Masters, and Cosmic Emperors at the Ancestral God Temple nodded as they watched Ye Chen’s actions.

“Ye Chen from the Wanmu Mountain Divine Kingdom is indeed formidable; his climbing speed seems even faster than Moko Ye’s!”

“Looks like the Moko Divine Country has truly encountered a worthy opponent this time.”

In the space where the Divine Kingdom leaders reside, countless Divine Kingdom leaders nodded continuously as they observed Ye Chen’s actions and his terrifying climbing speed.

Only the citizens of countless regions across numerous Divine Kingdoms, watching the final battle of the Stellar Domain Genius Battle through the great cosmic projection, initially did not understand Ye Chen’s intentions.

When they saw Ye Chen fall from the highest point, many citizens in places across Wanmu Mountain Divine Kingdom let out incredulous gasps.

When Ye Chen finally climbed back to the top and was still able to maintain a position within the top one hundred, many citizens of Wanmu Mountain Divine Kingdom breathed a sigh of relief, only to see Ye Chen fall off the Star Vines again, causing their hearts to tighten once more.

Indeed, many citizens pondered in their hearts, “What’s going on with this Ye Chen? Why does he fall at the final stage every time?”

Only in areas where powerful figures such as in the Supreme Divine Institute, the Divine Kingdom’s capital, and the Northern Region of the Divine Kingdom were present did the Sovereigns and others feel that Ye Chen was seeking more benefits and chose not to rush directly to the finish.

Some Sovereigns who guessed Ye Chen’s intentions observed Ye Chen climbing the Star Vines repeatedly, surpassing each time, only to fall again, absorbing the Star Vine Divine Light time and time again. As more reached the final platform, Ye Chen kept climbing, prompting some to murmur in their hearts, “Don’t overplay your hand.”

“After all, the Star Vine is too long and there are too many of them. Ye Chen can’t observe the situation of all the Star Vines or the other contestants.”

“If he fails to make it into the top one million in the end, it would be an enormous joke.”

Th𝗂𝘴 𝗰hⱯp𝑡𝗲r 𝐢𝑠 p𝘰ʂ𝘵𝙚𝗱 b𝕪 𝗞ɪ𝕥𝖾𝘯𝑜ѵ𝗲𝗅

Ye Chen was unaware of the concerns of these Sovereigns.

Additionally, those Sovereigns were also unaware of Ye Chen’s control over the countless Star Vines and his control over his own climbing speed!

Finally.

During the entire three-day first round of the competition, Ye Chen only reached the final platform in the second half of the third day.

He directly squeezed into the top nine hundred and sixty thousand, earning a spot in the second round!

Ye Chen also maximized the time he could use for climbing the Star Vines!

If he had continued to climb the next Star Vine, estimating the climbing speeds of others, he wouldn’t have made it into the top one million in time, so Ye Chen chose to end the first round at the optimal moment!

At that point, the number of Star Vines Ye Chen climbed reached an astonishing thirty-two!

Ye Chen absorbed the Star Vine Divine Light from all thirty-two Star Vines!

At this moment, the Starry Origin power contained in the Star Vine Divine Light Ye Chen absorbed was comparable in quantity to the Starry Origin power he had previously absorbed from the sixth star on the Star Disk!

The Starry Origin power within Ye Chen surged dramatically once again!

Compared to Ye Chen, the vast majority of those who completed the competition only climbed one Star Vine, absorbing the Starry Origin power from just one Star Vine.

The number of Star Vines Ye Chen climbed was dozens of times that of these people!

Although a few powerful figures, like Ye Chen, climbed multiple times, absorbing more Star Vine Divine Light, their speed, explosive force, and timing of decisions could not compare to Ye Chen at all.

Ye Chen surpassed these people several times over, even dozens of times over!

Finally.

The three-day first round of the competition ended completely.

This time, the great cosmic final battle of the Stellar Domain Genius Battle did not disappoint, as it drew elite contestants from all the Divine Kingdoms across the universe. In the time allocated for competition, over one million people in the True God, Divine King, and Divine Venerable competition zones completed their tasks without wasting any spots.

A million people each advanced to the second round!

After the first round ended, the results of various Divine Kingdoms appeared directly on the great cosmic projection Void Heaven Light Curtain, visible in the Starry Sky Waterfall space where the Sovereigns and Divinities resided.

A million participants from the True God, Divine King, and Divine Venerable categories each made it to the second round.

The Divine Kingdom with the most participants advancing to the second round was the Moke Divine Country.

Moke Divine Country, as expected of the number one Divine Kingdom in this universe, saw all one hundred True Gods, one hundred Divine Kings, and one hundred Divine Venerables participating in the great cosmic final battle of the Stellar Domain Genius Battle advance to the second round!

Like Moke Divine Country, powerful Upper Divine Kingdoms such as Long Xuan Divine Kingdom and Youming Divine Country also nearly filled or met their quotas going into the second round.

However, their overall climbing speeds slightly lagged behind Moke Divine Country.

This outcome brought a smile to the face of the Moke Divine Country’s leader, who had previously shown mild dissatisfaction with Ye Chen’s performance surpassing Moko Ye.

Of course, the results for Upper Divine Kingdoms were all good.

However, many medium Divine Kingdoms saw a lot of participants eliminated.

In Lower Divine Kingdoms, even more participants were eliminated!

Some Divine Kingdom teams, consisting of three hundred participants across three realms, lost more than half of their participants after the first round!

The Wanmu Mountain Divine Kingdom, where Ye Chen was located, had upper-middle results in the first round.

Of the three hundred participants, ninety-six were eliminated in the first round, leaving two hundred fourteen True Gods, Divine Kings, and Divine Venerables to take on the next round’s challenge.

Of course, the most attention-grabbing seed-level contestants of the Wanmu Mountain Divine Kingdom, Ye Chen, Long Li, and others, successfully advanced!

Jiang Yao, Qianqian, and others also advanced to the next round!

Once the first round’s competition was completely over, more than three million eliminated contestants for each realm were all gathered on a massive star platform by the Ancestral God Temple to watch the subsequent competitions.

The Cosmic Emperor “Emperor Liao,” responsible for this great cosmic final battle of the Stellar Domain Genius Battle, then announced the rules for the second round.

“The second round of the competition is called—Aurora Flush.”

“It will take place on this platform where the Starry Sky Waterfall descends!”

Wow.

Looking up from the topmost platform where all the first-round passers stand on the Star Vines.

You can see that this topmost platform directly bears the endless water flow of the Starry Sky Waterfall from hundreds of feet above, where it completely vanishes.
