725 Tournament Begins (1)
The cheers in the Myriad Species Arena were like an avalanche or tsunami. Countless audience members were thrilled.

Through the information network, the entire Myriad Species World watched livestreams everywhere.

The Myriad Species World Tournament was held once every 1,000 years, and it was the greatest event in the Myriad Species World! For many weak species with short lifespans, it was extremely fortunate to live long enough to participate in the Myriad Species World Tournament once.

At this moment, they were reveling in the exhilaration of the competition.

In the middle of the arena, a golden-furred Panqiu appeared in the center of the arena. His smile could sway the minds of billions of viewers, and his voice reverberated throughout the arena. “I’m honored to host the 1,008th Myriad Species Tournament.

“I’m sure everyone in the audience knows that the might of powerhouses worldwide has progressed tremendously in the past 300 years. We can expect this Myriad Species Tournament to be unprecedentedly intense.

“This year’s tournament will be a turning point in the history of the Myriad Species Tournament. From today onward, the Myriad Species Tournament will be even more thrilling and popular. The tournament will also catalyze the emergence of more formidable body tempering techniques and push the limits of life to a higher level.”

Countless audience members cheered. This was indeed the truth.

With over five million high-dimensional lifeforms descending, many body tempering techniques had indeed been imparted in the past 300 years. For instance, Xu Jingming had left more than one set of body tempering techniques for the Jing family. His parents cultivated the simplest set.

A large number of body tempering techniques circulated, enabling the natives’ strength to generally increase.

“Without further ado, we will have the first match of the first round of the Myriad Species Tournament next. Fanchu from the Fire Dragons will battle Yarojin from the Forest Giant Apes.” The Panqiu’s voice was shrill.

Two figures darted out from two of the contestants’ boxes at the outermost rim of the Myriad Species Arena. One was a lanky 12-meter-tall ape, Yarojin, and the other was a Fire Dragon powerhouse with outstretched wings.

Yarojin? Xu Jingming glanced at the other party. When he came after me back then, Yarojin was at Lv. 55. I wonder what level he has reached after 200 years.

The contestants in the main competition moved extraordinarily swiftly.

Less than 10,000 meters from the contestant’s box to the arena, the lanky ape, Yarojin, appeared in the arena as if he had teleported. His movement tore through the air, causing a terrifying shockwave. The Myriad Species Arena’s energy shield protected all the spectators.

The commotion caused by the Fire Dragon powerhouse entering the arena was a thousandfold greater.

Boom!

Like a thunderclap, the Fire Dragon powerhouse tore through the air and descended into the arena, causing the entire arena to shudder slightly.

“Wow.”

“The Fire Dragons are so enormous.”

“The Giant Apes are so small compared to the Fire Dragons.”

Countless spectators watched in excitement as they discussed fervently, especially the Ants, Bees, and many other weak species sitting in the front row. In the eyes of these weak species, the Fire Dragons were massive!

The Fire Dragon powerhouse was over 110 meters long, and the pressure from its immense wings stifled the Ants and Bees.

“To think a shortie like you can enter the main competition.” The Fire Dragon powerhouse, Fanchu, gazed down at Yarojin.

Yarojin stared at his opponent.

After he failed to kill Xu Jingming back then, he strove ardently to improve, cultivating even harder! Therefore, a total of two Giant Apes entered the main competition. Other than the one-armed Giant Ape King, there was also Yarojin.

“Contestants, this is your first match, so I’ll reiterate the rules,” the Panqiu said. “Once the competition begins, the competition will only truly end when one side admits defeat or one side dies.”

“I’m kindly reminding the two contestants that if they feel that the gap in strength is too vast, they can immediately admit defeat. This is because they might never have a chance if they say it too late,” Panqiu said.

The two contestants’ expressions didn’t change. After all, the rules for every Myriad Species Tournament were the same. They were already very familiar with it.

“Alright, please get ready.” The Panqiu had already retreated to the edge of the arena. “Let the competition begin!”

With the order, Yarojin and Fanchu observed their opponent.

The Myriad Species Tournament was a big deal to many, but for high-dimensional lifeforms like them, it was a disaster. Few would come out alive.

Boom.

Fanchu lunged forward.

The Myriad Species Arena was oval-shaped, its semi-major axis spanning over 10,000 meters with an energy shield enveloping the venue.

Fanchu’s pounce was terrifyingly fast, his claws extended and the wingspan of his flapping wings huge.

Yarojin tried to dodge, but his speed disadvantage made it impossible.

Bang!!!

There was a loud bang as Fanchu’s fiery-red scaled wing slammed into Yarojin. The impact sent Yarojin flying, crashing into the shield at the edge of the arena and spewing blood.

Rip. Fanchu charged forward, his dragon claws bearing down on Yarojin.

Yarojin’s body was tough, using the reactionary force of the shield to dodge the attack.

Whoosh! Boom! Bang!

The two clashed several times in the blink of an eye, too fast for the audience to follow.
Fanchu had the upper hand, chasing after Yarojin as he landed on the ground.

Yarojin crashed into the shield multiple times, before finally surrendering and forfeiting the match while spewing blood.
