At Chu Zhou’s house.
Chu Zhou focused on the information on the “Details of the Global Human Genius Competition”.
His breathing quickened with just a glance at the rewards for the top three as he decided to participate in the Global Human Genius Competition.
His gaze was fixated on the reward for first place.
“The reward for first place is actually so generous. Other than 100 billion Alliance Dollars, there’s also a drop of Emperor Realm monster blood essence…”
“An Emperor Realm monster is a terrifying existence that stands at the top of the monster pyramid. It’s a moving natural disaster. Even mushroom bombs and Laser Cannons might not be able to kill it. It might even make it stronger.”
“Moreover, Emperor Realm monsters usually control countless other monsters. If you want to kill an Emperor Realm monster, you have to first break through the obstruction of countless monsters. Then, you have a chance to fight an Emperor Realm monster and take its life.”
“Therefore, Emperor Realm monsters are very difficult to kill… The death of any Emperor Realm monster is a huge event that will shake the entire world.”
“On the other hand, the blood essence of Emperor Realm monsters contains unimaginable majestic energy. Even Martial Gods will gain huge benefits after refining it…”
“However, it’s not easy for even the Human Martial God to obtain a drop of Emperor Realm monster blood essence.
“A drop of Emperor Realm monster blood essence… Its value actually far exceeds 100 billion. It can even be said to be priceless. You can’t even buy it on the Martial Artist Mall. You can’t buy it even if you have money.”
When Chu Zhou saw the words “Emperor Realm monster blood essence”, he couldn’t help but think of a trending topic that had once caused a sensation.
There was once a human Martial God named Meng Yuan. His old injuries relapsed even though he had used the Water of Life. Hence, he offered a high price of 300 billion online to ask for a drop of Emperor Realm monster blood essence.
However, he still did not get what he wanted.
From this, it could be seen how rare the blood essence of an Emperor Realm monster was.
He then looked at the “one chance to enter the ruins of civilization” and “one chance to go to the headquarters of the three martial arts schools to study.”
The latter was easy to understand.
However, Chu Zhou was not very clear about the former.
Someone on the Internet had also said that the Human Alliance controlled many mysterious civilization ruins.
It contained shocking opportunities.
However, there was too little information about this.
Moreover, they were all vague.
Chu Zhou did not know much either.
However, in his opinion, the Alliance actually used such an opportunity as a reward for the first place. Moreover, there was not even such a reward for the second and third place..
This meant that this reward was very precious.
He looked at the rewards for the other rankings.
It had to be said that the rewards this time were too generous.
Even if he was ranked 100th, he could obtain three billion Alliance Dollars and other rewards.
It could be seen that the Human Alliance had paid a huge price to select true geniuses to nurture.
“I only want first place!”
Chu Zhou muttered to himself.
He had already regarded the first place in the Global Human Genius
Competition as his. Regardless of whether it was blocking his way, he would defeat it.
He had such confidence now.
Then, he began to browse the rules of the Global Human Genius Competition.
Qualification to participate: Younger than or equal to 30 years old; Strength at least at the Awakening Realm.
Competition format: divided into regional qualifiers and global finals.
The regional selection was to select ten Elite geniuses from each region and let these ten Elite geniuses participate in the global finals.
The regional qualifiers were divided into three parts: preliminary, semi-finals, and regional finals.
In the preliminary round, 1,000 geniuses would be selected.
In the semi-finals, 100 geniuses were selected.
Regardless of the preliminary round, semi-finals, regional finals, or global finals, they would be ranked according to points.
After Chu Zhou browsed through the competition rules, he clicked on the registration website.
“Number of applicants from the Guangdong region: 251,112”
At first glance, Chu Zhou saw a row of eye-catching numbers. Moreover, the number became 252,223 in the blink of an eye.
“Gasp, so many people have signed up!”
Chu Zhou exclaimed.
He would not have known if he had not seen it. He did not expect there to be so many martial artists at Awakening level below the age of 30 in the Guangdong area.
However, after thinking about it carefully, it was normal.
As long as one’s talent was not bad, they would basically be able to advance to the Awakening Realm by the age of 30.
If there were not enough human martial artists, how could they resist the monsters for so many years?
However, the number of people who had signed up had reached 252,223, and the number of people had increased. The preliminary round only took the top 1,000.
From this, it could be seen how intense the competition was.
However, this was not within Chu Zhou’s consideration.
He quickly filled in the information, performed fingerprint verification, and then facial verification. Then, he clicked the registration button.
“The authentication has been approved, Mr. Chu Zhou. Welcome to the Global
Human Genius Competition. We guarantee that this year’s Global Human Genius Competition will be held fairly.”
“Please check your mailbox! ”
After the registration was approved, a text prompt box appeared on the webpage.
Beep beep.
Chu Zhou quickly received an email.
He opened it and saw many instructions about the ‘Global Human Genius Competition”.
For example, the “Global Human Genius Competition” this time was not a competition in reality. Instead, it was a competition in the ‘Virtual battlefield” on the Internet.
‘Virtual Battlefield” was a virtual world constructed on the Internet using virtual reality technology.
In the virtual world, it could restore realistic three-dimensional vision, touch, smell, and many other sensory experiences, making people in the virtual world feel as if they were in the real world..
