Chapter 99 The Appearance of the Seventh on the Starry Sky Rankings

"The finals will begin tomorrow at 0:00 on September 6th, everyone, don't forget," the host Liu Xin said with a smile.

Jin Fan, the male guest next to him, said, "Let's talk about the battle just now. Xu Jingming and Wang Yi cooperated to defeat Lei Yunfang. There were so many interesting points."

The commentary on the commentary stage continued, replaying the wonderful battle scenes, and the guests carefully analyzed each combat factor. But the number of viewers in the live broadcast room was constantly declining.

Liu Hai also stood up.

"That little girl, Wang Yi, has also broken through. The cooperation of two Tier 3 experts is still a threat." Liu Hai's eyes were filled with anticipation as he disappeared from the live broadcast room.

On the other side of the stands.

"Old Xu, Sister Yi, you guys are too awesome." Liu Chongyuan came to greet them excitedly.

"We actually made it to the finals! Wahahaha, I was eliminated at the beginning, who would have thought I'd be carried to victory in the end. Haha..." Heng Fang laughed.

Xu Jingming, Wang Yi, and Yang Qingshuo walked towards their teammates.

"Our Pearwood Team actually made it to the finals. I have to think about what to say when I go on stage and get interviewed during the finals," Li Miaomiao smiled, her eyes turning into crescents. "In the past few days, the number of downloads for my songs has greatly increased. After today's match… I estimate the number of downloads will continue to increase greatly."

"When I'm at the training ground, I often play 'Pearwood' as background music," Heng Fang said. "It's our team song."

"Hubby, hubby." Liu Chongyuan's wife ran over, grabbed her husband, and whispered, "I remember the runner-up prize is two hundred million, twice as much as the top four prize? Can we look at a bigger house now?"

"Buy, buy, buy." Liu Chongyuan said with a smile.

"Sister-in-law." Heng Fang suddenly popped up and said, "The runner-up is two hundred million, but the champion is five hundred million! You have to believe in Old Xu and Sister Yi's strength."

The teammates were all extremely happy.

Wang Yi also smiled as she watched everything, then said to her teammates, "I just broke through, so I'll go back first. I have to hurry up and consolidate my strength to prepare for the finals."

"You should go quickly." Xu Jingming nodded. "If you can break through to the high-tier of the evolutionary method before the finals, our chances of winning will be even greater."

"One day to reach the high-tier of the evolutionary method, Captain, do you have any experience?" Wang Yi asked.

Xu Jingming thought for a moment and said, "First, spend about two hours consolidating your archery skills, mainly familiarizing yourself with your body's force exertion. Then try practicing the evolutionary method three times. After that, hone your archery skills for another two hours, practice the evolutionary method three times… Continue like this, before the match, calm down and try to practice the evolutionary method a dozen times to see if you can break through."

"Actually, the force exertion skills of Tier 3 is about mobilizing deeper levels of the body's power. The high-tier evolutionary method is also about mobilizing the body at a deeper level to participate in the evolutionary method cultivation," Xu Jingming said. "Consciously guiding the body's deeper levels to participate in the evolutionary method will greatly increase your chances of breaking through."

"Understood." Wang Yi listened carefully and said, "Thank you, Captain, I'll withdraw first."

Wang Yi said goodbye to everyone and left the live broadcast room.

At this moment, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room continued to decrease, falling to over three hundred million. The guests on the commentary stage were still looking forward to the finals.

"The cooperation between Xu Jingming and Wang Yi was able to defeat Lei Yunfang. Therefore, they should also pose a sufficient threat to Liu Hai."

"Xu Jingming is good at shield techniques, and Wang Yi is good at archery. One entangles the enemy, and the other shoots arrows. When they cooperate, one plus one is greater than three. I also think the finals are full of variables. Liu Hai might even lose this final." The host and guests discussed.

Suddenly, the three of them saw a notification message.

They rarely talked about other topics, but the message was quite astonishing.

"We just received news." The host Liu Xin said in surprise, "A seventh person has appeared on the Starry Sky Rankings, an expert from the Roman Empire."

"What?"

Xu Jingming and the others, who were originally saying goodbye to each other and preparing to disperse, were all taken aback.

"Starry Sky Rankings, seventh in the world?" Xu Jingming felt a sense of urgency.

"Let's go take a look."

Xu Jingming said, and immediately went to the Starry Sky Tower in the mission space. Li Miaomiao and the others also immediately went there one by one.

…

Beneath the Starry Sky Tower, Xu Jingming appeared here, looking up at the huge ranking list in the night sky that was as tall as the Starry Sky Tower.

There were now seven names on the huge list.

Global Rank 1: Liu Hai (Xia Country)

Global Rank 2: Tiger Fussen (White Eagle Federation)

Global Rank 3: Alan Emelianenko (Rocher Country)

Global Rank 4: Tiano Cire (Bovana)

Global Rank 5: Lei Yunfang (Xia Country)

Global Rank 6: Kway Saint Mills (White Eagle Federation)

Global Rank 7: Liven Gullit (Roman Empire)

"Liven Gullit, that ice and snow behemoth from the Roman Empire?" When Xu Jingming saw this name, he knew who it was.

Liven Gullit was a hegemon-level figure in the World Martial Arts Competition in recent years. Although he couldn't reach the level of crushing like the Three Kings, he was consistently in the top three in the Martial Arts Competition. He had also won the world number one title twice.

Liven Gullit was 32 years old this year, 2.28 meters tall, and weighed 225 kilograms.

These were his latest body data from the World Martial Arts Alliance before the virtual world began. Back then, a height of 2.28 meters… that physique was simply too huge, absolutely a behemoth.

"The martial arts world has always questioned Liven Gullit," Xu Jingming thought. "Because he relied on his height and long arms, and immense strength, wearing heavy armor and wielding a pair of large hammers, he simply waved the hammers and easily rushed to the forefront in the World Martial Arts Competition. But his physique was too large, and he lacked flexibility. He usually lost matches because his opponents found opportunities in his lack of flexibility."

"There are many people with large physiques in the world, but with a large physique, movements are generally slow, and movement is slow. Liven Gullit is less flexible compared to the world's top experts. Compared to ordinary people… his movements are swift, and his speed is considered very fast."

"After cultivating the evolutionary method, everyone's body can become very strong. Physical talent has been weakened. I didn't expect that a martial arts expert who seemed to rely on his body in the past is actually the seventh in the world on the Starry Sky Rankings, and the number one in the entire Roman Empire," Xu Jingming thought.

The Roman Empire was a fighting powerhouse.

After all, with a population of about one billion, the fighting atmosphere was strong, and many world-class experts emerged.

"Jingming, Jingming."

Li Miaomiao sent a message, "Come quickly, the whole internet is discussing this seventh person in the world! Many live broadcast rooms have found the latest intelligence on Liven Gullit."

"Oh?" Xu Jingming immediately clicked and went to where his girlfriend was.

…

On the viewing platform, in a live broadcast room where his girlfriend was, Xu Jingming also teleported there and sat down next to his girlfriend.

"Although the virtual worlds of various countries are not yet connected, the ordinary internet outside is still interconnected globally," Li Miaomiao said.

Xu Jingming looked at the host of this live broadcast room.

"I have been collecting detailed intelligence and combat videos of top experts around the world," a lean young man sitting there said, "I briefly mentioned the real-world achievements of this seventh person in the world who has climbed onto the Starry Sky Rankings before. As for the intelligence about him after the virtual world began, I'm afraid not many people in our country know about it."

The lean young man pointed to several videos that were starting to play next to him, "These are his combat videos in the virtual world. He cultivates the Violent Tiger Evolutionary Method! After cultivating the evolutionary method, his weakness of poor physical flexibility has completely disappeared, and he has become more flexible and fierce."

"Wearing heavy armor, wielding a pair of large hammers, flexible and fierce. He is the fiercest behemoth in the entire Roman Empire," the lean young man said. "The Roman Empire is also holding a competition, and Liven is the most invincible one! He also led the team into the finals. Who would have thought that before the finals, he would be the first to pass the third level of the Starry Sky Tower… Now the Roman Empire is boiling, and he is now recognized as the number one martial artist in the Roman Empire!"

Xu Jingming watched several videos playing simultaneously. The videos were repeated replays of some key battles.

"Liven Gullit's combat skills are very high." Xu Jingming watched. "Perhaps, in the past, he was too constrained by his huge body, his physical flexibility was poor, and it was difficult for him to achieve the achievements of the Three Kings in the martial arts world. But now the evolutionary method has eliminated this weakness, making him even more terrifying."

Li Miaomiao nodded thoughtfully.

"In the past, I thought it was strange that such a giant could be so strong in the martial arts world," Xu Jingming said with emotion.

In reality, many giants are completely useless in martial arts combat. They are beaten up as soon as they go on stage.

Liven went on stage and beat others. He consistently placed in the top three and had accumulated two world number one titles, which was very incredible.

"In the country, I may be second only to Master Liu Hai and Senior Lei Yunfang. But looking at the world… there are still many experts." Xu Jingming also felt the competition from the many experts around the world and said, "I still have to continue to work hard, I'm going to the training ground first."

"Okay." Li Miaomiao nodded obediently, watching Xu Jingming leave and disappear.
