983 A defrauded competition (1/2)
”Battle of Glory?”
Su Hao could roughly guess what Wang Ru was here for.
”En.” Wang Ru nodded, ”Actually, the problem regarding Battle of Glory isn't very big, but this is the first time that humans and beasts actually face off against each other in public.”
”So, we mustn't lose!”
”First place! We must obtain it!”
Su Hao nodded.
These were within his expectation. Although he didn't think he was invincible in this world, he should still be able to give a good fight among the younger generation, right?
First place?
It's within his grasp!
”No, you don't understand.” Wang Ru said seriously, ”We are well aware of your strength. So how could the beasts not be aware of it? Although you have all sorts of achievements, such as killing a pseudo-emperor with a slash and scaring off Yun Yi, your true strength is still at the level two world realm. This point, you should be well aware, right?”
”En.”
Su Hao was helpless.
That was the case. The reason he could defeat Yun Yi was by relying on the breakthrough of Ping Yang and the others.
”Let me ask you one question.” Wang Ru took a deep breath, ”The strength you had when defeated Yun Yi, can you do it a second time?”
”Nope.” Su Hao shook his head.
”I knew it would be like this.” Wang Ru smiled bitterly, ”For a forbidden technique to be able to make you burst out with the strength of a level three world realm from a level two world realm, it must be a one-time usage.”
”What's wrong?” Su Hao finally realized the problem.
”The strength of beasts and humans are equal in some aspects. For example, you see, this holographic online game would never happen on the beast's side. Human technology is far beyond the reach of the beasts. However, at the same time, the beasts also have something that we can't match.”
Wang Ru's tone was a bit low.
”What thing?”
Su Hao's heart skipped a beat.
We humans have an online community, where interaction and evaluation are why we can understand other people's every move. However, thanks to that, the beasts have a clearer understanding of our strength, and this was why they could repeatedly target human geniuses successfully.”
”As an exchange of deal, humans popularize virtual devices to the beasts while similarly, the beasts have to pay the same price. The list of their strength deductions has been revealed.” Wang Ru's face looked solemn.
”A list of strength deductions?” Su Hao's eyes narrowed.
”Yes.” Wang Ru nodded, ”A list of geniuses created by a pseudo-emperor who's not good at combat. All people under 30 are eligible to be listed. The accuracy rate is close to 99%. Both humans and beasts are listed there. Based on the strength, the top one hundred is identified.”
”Then, where am I?” Su Hao realized something.
”Seventy-two.” Wang Ru smiled bitterly.
Seventy-two!
Are you trying to tease me?
Su Hao's eyes widened immediately.
Although he didn't think he was first, he was also aware that there are many geniuses in the beast's side, but he should still be able to remain within the top ten, right? What's with this seventy-two?
”Let me have a look.” Su Hao sounded angry.
Wang Ru showed the data on the virtual screen.
___________
Name: Su Hao
Age: 23
Strength: Level two world realm
Evaluation: Killing a pseudo-emperor with a single slash, defeated a level three world esper, Yun Yi, entered into Nine Great Despairs many times, destroyed Geomagnetic Despair alone, and has a high reputation in the human world. Based on the deduction, Su Hao might be using a one-time forbidden technique that can't be repeated again in life. So, his combat evaluation didn't consider this.
Ranking: 72
___________
Su Hao's eyes narrowed.
Level two world realm, seventy-two?
Looking up the list, Su Hao saw Wan Cheng in front of him.
___________
Name: Wan Cheng
Age: 26
Strength: Level two world realm
Evaluation: Became a world esper while in Taihu Territory, has his own talent Rule Force, possess a fourth-ranked boundary spirit, exceptional talent, amazing fighting power
Ranking: 68
___________
”This list...”
Su Hao finally became serious. What was even more frightening was in the top ten list, all of them were beasts. All of them were at level three world realm! The list issued by the beast had been converted to the world realm as an indicator to allow humans to have a better understanding.
”Impossible!” Su Hao's eyes widened.
This was a list for those under 30! Why were there so many beasts at level three world realm? Su Hao looked at Wang Ru in disbelief.
”This is the problem.” Wang Ru smiled bitterly, ”This is the difference between beasts and humans. Humans rely on talent, while the beasts rely on their bloodline. However, talent couldn't be inherited, but the bloodline...”
”Have you seen someone who's already a domain esper when he was born?”
”Domain esper?” Su Hao took a deep breath after hearing those words, ”You're trying to say...”
”Yes, you're right.” Wang Ru pointed at the first ranked name, ”His father is a pseudo-emperor!”
___________
Name: Mo Ling
Age: 22
Strength: Peak world realm
Evaluation: The child of a pseudo-emperor with an amazing bloodline. Being blessed since birth, he was already a domain esper from the time he was born. Now, he's at the peak world realm. The beast with the highest hope of being an emperor-ranked beast!
Rank: 1
___________
The child of a pseudo-emperor!
A domain esper the moment he was born!
Su Hao felt like cursing.
Bloodline!
Human genetics would, at most, provide grade A talents for newborns. If the parents have amazing talents, the children may also be espers with amazing potential. As for the beasts, they were more extreme! The inherited bloodline could make them formidable.
