Chapter 984: The First Batch!

Hmm?

Qin Chen heard this and the confusion on his face grew even deeper.

Ultimately, was it defeat, or not defeat?

Zhao Tengqi, however, did not elaborate.

"A surprise must naturally be ’surprising’ enough to be called a ’surprise’."

Zhao Tengqi’s smile was intense.

Qin Chen was momentarily stunned again.

Seeing Zhao Tengqi’s smile, Qin Chen suddenly seemed to understand something, and a strange look flickered in his eyes.

Looks like his brother was indeed planning something secretly.

"Apparently, that Golden Profound Ice must belong to Deng Yu."

"The battle between Deng Yu and Zhao Tengqi, I also watched, and it proved that Deng Yu is indeed strong enough. Defeating Zhao Tengqi took only one minute."

"One minute? So exaggerated? Isn’t Zhao Tengqi, rumored to be the son of the Mind King, supposed to possess the Telekinesis Heart and be a born Telekinesis Master? How could he lose to Deng Yu in just one minute?"

"It’s not that Zhao Tengqi is too weak, but Deng Yu... is too strong!"

Some people whispered among themselves.

Because of Deng Yu’s words, many looked at Deng Yu with even more astonishment in their eyes.

"Mind King Zhao Xiongmo, Mind King Yuan Lin, these two have always been battling openly and secretly."

"Looking at Zhao Xiongmo’s side, apart from Zhao Tengqi, there’s not an impressive figure to be found, and even Zhao Tengqi has fallen to Deng Yu."

"On Yuan Lin’s side, Deng Yu, Shee Mingfang, and even Zeng Zhan have all been extremely popular telekinesis prodigies recently!"

"This time, in the battle for supremacy, Zhao Xiongmo might end up embarrassed."

The battle for supremacy hasn’t started, yet signs of conflict are already emerging.

Yuan Lin was full of smiles, and his eyes glanced at Qin Chen, suddenly sending a voice through Elemental Power into Qin Chen’s eardrum.

"Regret?"

Just three simple words, yet they expressed Yuan Lin’s disdain for Qin Chen.

Moreover, Yuan Lin would tell Qin Chen that this was only the beginning.

In the days to come, he would make Qin Chen regret even more, until Qin Chen was erased.

Even if praised by Nine Curves Daoist, what does it matter?

The wrong path means everything else is wrong.

Upon hearing Yuan Lin’s spoken words through Elemental Power, Qin Chen’s gaze fell on Yuan Lin.

He did not respond.

A response at this moment would be meaningless.

He would respond with actions!

"The first battle for supremacy starts!"

"Once your name is called, drip blood on the ranking stone, then get ready to participate in the first round, High-level Thought Tower challenge!"

"Gong Liang, Zhuu Yu, Mo Qian..."

Among the first batch, Mo Qian, who had earlier clashed with Qin Chen, was listed.

However, at this moment, Mo Qian no longer carried his previous arrogance.

Because it was only now that he realized how insignificant and ordinary he was.

People are like this.

Only when they truly reach a larger world, a higher level, do they let go of their so-called pride.

Qin Chen looked at the towering structure in front of him.

In his mind, he seemed to recall the moment he faced the Primary-level Thought Tower back in Thunder State.

At that time, his ascent of the Thought Tower caused quite a commotion.

But now, it was a High-level Thought Tower.

The only one within the Great Origin Dynasty!

Inside, it is divided into thirty levels!

And every Telekinesis Master here could easily achieve the feat Qin Chen did back in Thunder State’s Thought Tower.

The Tenth Level is just the beginning.

"Gu Xiaofeng, Xia Meng’er!"

Suddenly, Li Yang called out two names.

Also the last two names.

Among this first batch, no one from Yuan Lin’s team stepped forward.

Gu Xiaofeng and Xia Meng’er were the only two Telekinesis Masters from the Imperial City Telekinesis Master Association to appear first.

"Do your best!" Zhao Tengqi said.

"We certainly won’t bring shame to King Zhao."

Gu Xiaofeng nodded affirmatively.

At this moment, everyone was watching them.

They represented Zhao Xiongmo, and since they were the first to appear.

Therefore, they needed to prove something.

"Try your best." Zhao Xiongmo didn’t put much pressure on Gu Xiaofeng and Xia Meng’er.

"Don’t embarrass our Imperial City Telekinesis Master Association."

"If their results aren’t as good as the Telekinesis Master Association’s, it’ll be quite embarrassing."

At this moment, Deng Yu’s voice suddenly spread.

It seemed like he was concerned for Gu Xiaofeng and Xia Meng’er.

In reality, everyone could hear the malice in his words.

Originally, it was nothing much, but after his words, if Gu Xiaofeng and Xia Menger’s results were really not good, it would be very embarrassing.

"Just have to say, this Deng Yu really deserves a beating."

Zhao Tengqi’s face was full of smiles, but there was a trace of coldness in his smile.

This obvious targeting, everyone could see it.

"Believe that you won’t be disappointed."

Gu Xiaofeng heard and replied unaffected, smiling at Deng Yu.

"Even better." Deng Yu squinted his eyes with a smile.

With Deng Yu’s provocation, people began to anticipate the upcoming first fight.

"First stage, High-level Thought Tower, limited to six two hours."

This tower challenge was unlike the one Qin Chen experienced.

The competition wasn’t about who could reach the highest.

But who could reach higher within the limited time!

Naturally, more considerations were necessary.

"Mind Tower, open!"

Li Yang made a gesture.

It seemed weak, but it was heavier than ten thousand pounds.

That extremely heavy Stone Gate immediately made a rumbling sound as it gradually opened.

Gu Xiaofeng and others swiftly entered the Mind Tower without hesitation.

"Next, it’s up to them."

The battle for supremacy officially began, Zhao Tengqi murmured a sentence.

On the ranking stone, real-time ranking started to appear immediately.

Once Gu Xiaofeng, Xia Meng’er reached the Third Level, they stopped.

Soon, names began disappearing from the ranking stone.

Many were like Xia Meng’er and Gu Xiaofeng.

Most stayed on the Second Level.

"Are they... comprehending the telekinesis pressure?" Qin Chen raised an eyebrow.

Originally, it was on the First Level of the Thought Tower where he comprehended telekinesis pressure, ultimately reaching the peak of the Thought Tower.

He didn’t expect this method wasn’t particularly novel anymore.

"Of course."

"To go higher, one must not rely solely on telekinesis to resist."

"Comprehension is the only way to relieve pressure." Zhao Tengqi said.

Upon hearing this, Qin Chen’s eyes couldn’t help but flash.

Speaking of comprehension.

Originally, when he comprehended telekinesis pressure in Thunder State’s Low-level Thought Tower, his comprehension was only tenfold.

But now, his comprehension was already a hundredfold!

Ten times what it was originally!

Qin Chen’s gaze swept over Deng Yu and others.

Seeing their faces full of disdain, Qin Chen also smiled and said, "Now, just laugh."

"The happier you laugh, the more miserable you’ll cry!"
