Chapter 1 Xu Jingming's Challenge

Xu Jingming waited silently after issuing the challenge.

In just over ten seconds, he received a response.

Challenge successful!

Cross-universe battle: Hunter Cosmos' Wu Ming versus Guixu Cosmos' Di Weifan.

The official Life Evolution Game immediately launched a full-platform advertisement with maximum reach! They also sent a message to every Life Evolution Game player, informing them of the information about this great battle.

"The second in the universe, fighting the first?" Xu Jingming couldn't help but smile as he looked at the successful challenge. "This Di Weifan has easily won every fight in the fifty-plus years he's been the best in the universe. His strength should be in a league of his own."

"And I've stumbled and barely managed to reach second in the universe. I reckon there's a gap between me and Di Weifan," Xu Jingming acknowledged. "But we have to fight to truly feel the difference between us."

A gap is nothing to fear!

Over the years, many experts had defeated Xu Jingming, but later, Xu Jingming surpassed them all.

"Let's see how strong you, the best in the universe, really are." Xu Jingming closed the challenge interface and began to adjust his state, preparing for the battle.

In the distant Guixu Cosmos, there was a large spaceship above a barren planet.

"Countdown, 33, 32, 31... 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, start!" A white-winged man at the head of the control panel gently pressed the start button.

Buzz!

The spaceship immediately released two strange waves, impacting the barren planet below.

During the transmission, the two strange waves naturally collided, producing a strange reaction. The power of the waves immediately increased, and when they impacted the barren planet, the rocks on its surface silently shattered into sand... As the waves swept past, large areas of the barren planet's surface turned into sand.

"Experiment planet No. 17 has 35.22 million square kilometers of area completely turned into sand, with a maximum depth of 21 kilometers," a scientist said with excitement as he looked at the data. "The power reached 320% of the estimate."

The other scientists cheered.

"Congratulations, Director-General, the experiment was a great success."

"Congratulations, Director-General."

The scientists were very excited.

After all, this experiment had been going on for more than 120 years, and today's results were unexpectedly excellent.

The winged man nodded and instructed, "Check the wear and tear of the experimental equipment, thoroughly investigate the sandification data of the experimental planet, and organize all the experimental data and send it to me."

"Yes, Director-General," the scientists nearby responded respectfully.

This winged man was the fifth-ranked scholar of the Yushan civilization, with an academic level of 92! As a mid-level civilization in the universe, the Yushan civilization only had one scholar with a level exceeding 100 in this era.

And the winged man, at over 800 years old, had reached an academic level of 92! Although it became more and more difficult to improve academically, the winged man was still young and had a certain possibility of breaking through to level 100 before the end of his lifespan.

After giving his instructions, the winged man turned and left, returning to his lounge.

"A challenge?"

The winged man took off his robe, sat in a chair, and glanced at the information displayed on the light screen. He leisurely poured himself a glass of wine.

"Wu Ming, the most talented of the contemporary evolutionary path, has finally reached second in the universe?" The winged man's eyes held anticipation. "I was originally planning to break through to the Origin Life realm after this experiment succeeded. I didn't expect that I could still fight this Wu Ming before breaking through."

"This Wu Ming is a member of the Primordial Research Institute, cultivating in the line of the Primordial Star Conjecture. To be able to reach second in the universe, his understanding of the Primordial Star must have reached an extremely high level," the winged man marveled. "I rely on scientific research, accumulating knowledge, to gradually peer into the abyss! My understanding is deep enough, but he has only cultivated the evolution method for thirty years, and his understanding can reach this level?"

"At least in terms of evolution, his talent is higher than mine," the winged man thought. "However, I am 819 years old this year and have an academic level of 99! I should be much stronger than him in the scholar's path."

An academic level of 92 in reality was a disguise.

He needed to conduct many experiments in reality, so he displayed a level of 92. In fact, his true academic level had reached 99!

He had high talent in the path of evolution, and even higher talent in the path of the scholar. He had long been recruited as an outer member of the Eternal Scholastic Tower, one of the three strongest forces.

Blue Star, morning.

"Dad, today's match is between Di Weifan, the first in the universe, and Wu Ming, the second in the universe! Wu Ming is still from our Hunter Cosmos. You have to watch this battle." Xu Lixing excitedly urged. "Oh? The first in the universe against the second?" Xu Jingming exclaimed.

"Yes, these are the two most powerful Rank Eight limits in the entire universe," Xu Lixing said. "I also heard that this Wu Ming has only cultivated for thirty or forty years. His talent is terrifyingly strong."

Xu Jingming blinked.

Even his daughter knew about Wu Ming's thirty or forty years of cultivation?

That's right, apart from the seventeen top forces, there were also 352 regional-level forces in the Hunter Cosmos who knew about Wu Ming's cultivation time and knew that Wu Ming had joined the Primordial Research Institute. With so many forces knowing, the spread was naturally wide.

His daughter probably knew because of that Qin Fangke.

"Jingming, let's watch the match together as a family of three," Li Miaomiao also said.

"I'd love to," Xu Jingming said apologetically. "But I have important things to do in the virtual world today that can't be delayed. As for the match, I'll watch the replay later."

"Important things?" Xu Lixing said helplessly. "Okay, but it's a real pity that you're missing this battle, Dad." "You and Mom go watch it first. You can tell me about it after you've watched it," Xu Jingming comforted. "Alright, I'm going online now. It's really urgent."

Xu Jingming went straight to his virtual room.

"Mom, it looks like we'll have to watch the match together," Xu Lixing said helplessly.

Virtual World Network, Life Evolution Game Platform.

Cross-universe peak battle: Universe No. 1 Di Weifan vs Universe No. 2 Wu Ming!

There were so many people. Xu Lixing and Li Miaomiao were shocked as they sat in the stands.

"There are already over nine hundred billion people now, and it's still rising. The online audience for this battle is estimated to break one trillion," Xu Lixing exclaimed. "Over one trillion cosmic citizens watching? This is the first time I've encountered this."

"Mm," Li Miaomiao nodded, looking at Wu Ming in the distance. "Every time I watch a match, I can feel that this Wu Ming's temperament is somewhat similar to your dad's."

"I think so too," Xu Lixing nodded.

After all, they were family members who spent every day together. Although his appearance had been modified to be sharper, and Xu Jingming's state during battle was different from his usual state, his relatives could still sense the similarities.

"I don't know much about the match. Lixing, who do you think will win this battle?" Li Miaomiao asked.

"No matter who the opponent is, I believe Wu Ming will win. He's my idol," Xu Lixing said excitedly.

In another part of the stands.

Qin Fangke and a young woman were also watching the battle.

"With Xu Lixing's admiration for Wu Ming, she will also come to watch this battle today," Qin Fangke thought. "It's a pity that Xu Lixing completely sold those virtual world assets and even blacklisted me." "However, aren't women everywhere?" Qin Fangke looked at the woman next to him and revealed a smile...

After all, this was a clash between the first and second in the universe, attracting a lot of people.

Even Prince Luanador of the Yuanxing civilization was in the stands.

Prince Luanador sat there. "I also sent them both messages, but neither of them accepted my friend request." "These two people are really arrogant enough," Prince Luanador said helplessly.

There was nothing he could do if these two ignored him.

These two would probably be at the same level as his elder brother in the future, and he couldn't afford to offend them.

Qu Fang, Wu Ming's number one fan, was naturally also watching the battle.

Di Ann also came today.

"The best of our Hunter Cosmos, finally has a chance to challenge for the first in the universe." Di Ann was quite expectant, looking at Wu Ming with a strange look in his eyes. "This Wu Ming, participated in the selection for the Mysterious Land at the same time as my good brother Xu Jingming!"

He knew very well when Xu Jingming participated in the Mysterious Land, because Xu Jingming had specifically asked him about the Mysterious Land's information.

"The same time cultivating the evolution method."

"Equally skilled in spear techniques and shield techniques."

"And their temperaments are somewhat similar."

"Could Wu Ming really be my good brother?" Di Ann was quite excited and expectant. "That would be too interesting. In the future, I can also show off."

"Di Ann is here too?" Vice President Chihmung, who was wide and fat, also rarely came to watch the battle. With his extremely high authority, he saw his son at a glance. "Chihmung, who do you think will win?" A voice sounded, and a figure that was difficult to distinguish as male or female sat next to him.

"White Warden, it's rare for you to come watch the battle," Chihmung said with a smile, looking at his friend beside him with his chubby face.

"Di Weifan's true academic level has reached 99, and he will almost certainly be able to break through to level 100 before the age of one thousand. As a genius with extremely high talent in both the scholar's path and the evolution path, our Eternal Scholastic Tower naturally values him," White Warden said.

"Academic level 100 before the age of one thousand, amazing," Chihmung praised.

"Your Primordial Research Institute's Wu Ming is not to be outdone," White Warden said. "He's only reached his current realm after cultivating the evolution method for 31 years. If he hadn't been suppressing it, he would have become an Origin Life realm last year." Chihmung smiled.

"The Primordial Research Institute, produced you, Chihmung! Became a cosmic legend in ten thousand years, and even has hope of becoming a Supreme existence. Now, you've produced another Wu Ming. Why are all the geniuses of the evolution path in your Primordial Research Institute?" White Warden shook his head. "It feels like in this era, your Primordial Research Institute is completely suppressing our Eternal Scholastic Tower and the Temporal Island."

"The Supreme realm is not that easy to reach," Chihmung said. "Even if you succeed, it's very difficult to reach the 'Eternal' level of the Supreme realm."

"You're already starting to stare at the Eternal level?" White Warden shook his head. "Truly monsters."

"Let's watch the two young people," Chihmung said, looking at the match.

"In this battle, Di Weifan has a high chance of winning. Chihmung, what do you think?" White Warden asked. "I don't know," Chihmung said. "The future is unknown."

White Warden was slightly stunned, also looking at the battle world, nodding and saying, "Yes, the future is unknown."
