Xu Jingming and Li Miaomiao, along with many relatives and friends, were also in the same grandstand, carefully watching the competition.

　　"The first group has four people, and each pair has a match, for a total of six matches. The top two in the group will be determined based on the final results." Li Miaomiao looked at the form in her hand. "The first match is Tu Ling against Riven Gulit. Jingming, who do you favor?"

　　Xu Jingming was also quite expectant: "Of course, it's our Xia country's Tu Ling. Looking at the whole world, she is the youngest fifth-level evolver. Her talent is truly amazing! She was quite dazzling in junior high school and received guidance from my master, Liu Hai, and also from Senior Lei Yunfang."

　　"Back then, Senior Lei Yunfang even guided her. Now, Senior Lei Yunfang can't even get into the main competition. Times are changing too fast," Li Miaomiao said, shaking her head.

　　"The competition is too fierce after the virtual world opened," Xu Jingming said.

　　During their conversation, the first match had already begun!

　　The map was a snowy scene.

　　Tu Ling was wearing dark-gold armor, with a shield in one hand and a saber in the other. However, her shield was more like Xu Jingming's shield. The saber was slender, known for its lightness and speed. At this moment, her eyes were sharp as she observed her opponent.

　　Riven Gulit was a massive figure like a giant beast, wearing heavy armor and wielding a pair of large hammers. He was also staring at Tu Ling, not daring to underestimate this young girl!

　　"Be careful," Tu Ling said, then transformed into a blur and pounced. Riven Gulit's pupils shrank, and he also bravely charged forward head-on.

　　Bang!

　　With a loud noise, one of Riven Gulit's large hammers collided head-on with the shield. Tu Ling flew backward, then tapped her foot and flashed away. Riven Gulit's body shook slightly as he stood firm.

　　"What great strength," Tu Ling said with a smile, full of fighting spirit as she charged again. This time, she no longer clashed head-on but used all her exquisite footwork. For a moment, several blurred figures of 'Tu Ling' appeared. Riven Gulit also charged to meet her!

　　The official virtual world livestream had already exceeded 5.9 billion viewers, and countless people were dumbfounded.

　　"Wow—"

　　"Wow—"

　　Countless people were left with exclamations.

　　It should be known that all viewers cultivated the evolutionary method, and their eyesight was fast enough to observe. But at this moment, with the two combatants moving at high speed, only afterimages remained.

　　"Too fast." The female host pointed to the data displayed in the livestream, "Tu Ling's maximum movement speed reached 335 meters per second, which is almost the speed of sound! She is currently the strongest sixteen-year-old on the entire planet. And Riven Gulit, wearing heavy armor and wielding heavy hammers, still reached a maximum movement speed of 289 meters per second."

　　The male guest Owen looked at the data in his hand and said, "I also want to tell everyone a shocking piece of data. The heavy armor that Riven Gulit is wearing weighs 9.6 tons! The pair of large hammers weighs 2.5 tons. Only a strong body with a perfect evolutionary method can carry such a load and still explode with a speed of 289 meters per second."

　　"Even the dark-gold lightweight armor that Tu Ling is wearing weighs 1.8 tons, plus the saber and shield, she weighs more than two tons. According to the virtual world armor rules, the higher the density, the stronger the material. Armor that is too light cannot withstand the attacks of a fifth-level expert."

　　"Unbelievable."

　　"Riven Gulit weighs more than ten tons and can still have a speed of 289 meters per second? He could probably smash a tank into pieces."

　　"Their hammer blows and axe strikes are comparable to missile strikes!"

　　"Is this the strength of a fifth-level evolver?"

　　"We are all Blue Star people, why am I still at the Silver Moon level?"

　　Countless viewers watched with envy.

　　With the opening of the virtual world, everyone cultivated the evolutionary method together. Many people were still stuck at the 'initial stage of the evolutionary method,' while Tu Ling and Riven Gulit had already reached the perfection stage.

　　The battle at this moment was extremely intense. The speed of both sides was too fast, leaving only blurred afterimages. Ordinary people could hardly see who had the advantage.

　　"From the slow-motion replay, Tu Ling completely occupies the initiative in the battle. Her footwork is unpredictable, and her shield and saber coordination is perfect. Riven Gulit is at an absolute disadvantage," the commentators explained, pointing to the slow-motion scenes.

　　"I can only see the match clearly in slow motion."

　　"Am I even worthy to watch such a match?"

　　"Compared to them, I feel like we are two different species."

　　"It feels like gods are fighting."

　　Countless viewers could only look up in admiration.

　　The people of Xia and Rome were very nervous, hoping that their own country's experts would win.

　　"Riven is actually at an absolute disadvantage. How is this Xia country girl so strong?" The Romans covered their chests, so nervous that they could hardly breathe.

　　…

　　"Under the pressure of the competition, I only managed to break through an hour ago and reach the perfection of the Planetary lifeform, so I can exchange over a hundred moves with this Tu Ling." Riven Gulit knew this very well. Although he had reached the fifth level several days ago, he only perfected his evolutionary method today.

　　If he didn't break through in his evolutionary method, he was afraid that he would lose his life in one exchange.

　　"Even though I broke through, she still has the advantage in all aspects." Riven Gulit was almost entirely on the defensive because Tu Ling's footwork was too ghostly.

　　Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

　　Almost in an instant, three 'Tu Lings' appeared and attacked from different directions. The saber was slender and too fast to defend against.

　　"Beautiful." In the grandstand, Lei Yunfang watched this scene and nodded with satisfaction. "I used to guide this little girl Tu Ling. Now her footwork has reached the fifth level and completely surpassed me. And her shield and saber skills are also perfect. She is truly an incredible genius."

　　The perfect combination of footwork and weapon skills completely suppressed Riven Gulit.

　　After exchanging more than a hundred moves, Riven Gulit finally failed to defend. A flash of saber light left a saber mark between his eyebrows. His body turned illusory and disappeared. On the snow, only Tu Ling in dark-gold armor stood there.

　　"Won, beautiful."

　　"Well done."

　　The most excited were the people of Xia, cheering for her.

　　In the grandstand, Xu Jingming also nodded with a smile. "Amazing, they both reached the fifth level, but Riven Gulit should have just broken through, and his footwork is a bit clumsy. If his footwork were stronger, the outcome of this battle would be hard to say."

　　"There are four people in the first group. They both reached the fifth level. Are Qiao Bola and Alan Emelianenko destined to lose?" Li Miaomiao asked.

　　"Probably." Xu Jingming nodded.

　　The following matches were as expected.

　　Qiao Bola was a female expert from Rome who used a shield and sword, and her rapier skills were superb. But after all, she was only at the peak of the fourth level, and she had no power to fight back against the fifth-level 'Tu Ling' and 'Riven Gulit'.

　　Alan Emelianenko was the only one of the Three Kings of the martial arts world who entered the main competition, but he also had to face the ravages of two fifth-level experts.

　　"Bang."

　　Riven Gulit didn't use much force, and even held back, but under the impact of the large hammer, Alan Emelianenko was still seriously injured and sent flying.

　　Alan Emelianenko couldn't block a casual hammer blow.

　　Too fast! Too much power! Even the nerve response was far behind! The difference between the fourth and fifth levels was too great.

　　Riven Gulit didn't want to abuse this senior, so he used three hammer blows. The third hammer made Alan Emelianenko's body turn illusory.

　　"Is this the gap between me and the fifth level?" Alan Emelianenko was trembling all over. His past glory and the sense of powerlessness made his heart very unwilling! He was once considered the most perfect existence in the martial arts world in terms of cold weapon skills.

　　And now? He was being surpassed by new talents one after another!

　　"Senior Alan, be careful." Tu Ling also respected this senior when fighting Alan Emelianenko.

　　Tu Ling was even more merciful, continuously striking with nineteen saber blows, the power gradually increasing. On the nineteenth strike, she finally cut across Alan Emelianenko's chest! Although Alan was wearing light armor, Tu Ling, who had reached the perfection of the Planetary lifeform, could easily cut through the armor with even a light saber strike.

　　"Clang." Alan's silver single saber in his right hand didn't defend at the last moment, but instead desperately slashed out, showing Tu Ling his strongest saber strike.

　　At this moment, his mind and will finally commanded all the cells in his body, mobilizing even more majestic power.

　　But Tu Ling's shield easily blocked the significantly more powerful saber strike.

　　"Thank you." Alan showed a happy smile. When he unleashed his final saber strike, his saber technique finally broke through, reaching the fifth level.

　　Tu Ling was also quite happy to see this scene. She liked encountering powerful opponents, as those battles were more exciting.
