"The elimination battle has begun!
"All candidates, please enter the Battle Planet!"
The deep and booming voice resounded in space, spreading to every corner and igniting everyone's spirits.
It's starting!
It's starting!
It's finally starting!
Numerous martial warriors within the three rings beamed with eagerness and anticipation. They bolted up and flew towards the ten forbidden zones like rays of light.
"Go!"
"Zone 10 is mine!"
"Why are you so proud of going there? I'm going to Zone 9."
"I'm heading to Zone 7. Martial warriors from my race, follow me!"
"Brother, I'm leaving. I'm heading to Zone 3."
"Really? Don't you know that the higher the ranking, the more dangerous it is?"
"There are more powerful star beasts in Zone 3, so I can earn more points. I have to do well so I can be selected by one of the Seven Stellar Academies. Burn incense for me if I don't come back."
"…Take care!"
"I'm going to Zone 1. Don't you dare stop me."
"Zone 1? Do you have a coffin ready?"
"Who dares to bad mouth me?"

They only needed to be in the top ten thousand to qualify for the next stage.
Still, everyone knew how the competition worked.
There was a hidden ranking, which was tallied with the number of points.
The higher the points, the more outstanding the performance and the higher the chances of being selected by the academies.
Countless rays shot out from the three rings. Those looking up from outside the Battle Planet would see it as stars soaring through the universe, just like a meteor shower.
Some of the participants were excited and restless, while others remained calm and composed. There were still people standing on the three rings.
Wang Teng was one of them. He wasn't in a hurry to move, but he was pondering which zone to choose.
The first zone was the most dangerous, as there were many powerful star beasts. The population of mid-tier imperial star beasts and above was higher; only the confident participants would choose that zone.
The competition in Zone 1 was going to be intense. All the powerful talents would head there.
Problem was, the other zones were also appealing!
For instance, Zone 3 was covered by a poisonous mist. It was a region zone filled with poison Force, and star beast of the poison element.
Wang Teng's poison Force was at the first-level of the celestial stage, so he needed to improve it.
Zone 5 was a frosty ground. Many ice element star beasts were lurking therein. It was a white, snowy and very cute place.
That zone was extremely tempting for our hero, whose ice Force was at the ninth-level of the planetary stage.
Flashes of lightning and roars of thunder resounded in Zone 2. Numerous lightning element star beasts were bathing in powerful bolts of energy, just like beautiful ladies taking a bath, beckoning him to enter. How could he ignore them?
Lastly, there was Zone 7. Gales circled the area, and star beasts of the wind element were seen happily riding the currents. Shouldn't he tame the arrogant storm?
Some of the talents from powerful factions had already taken action while he still considered his options. They tapped their feet on the ground and disappeared instantly, shooting towards the Battle Planet at the speed of light.
The celestites' floor remained intact, even after such a pounding.

It was a candidate from the Rodriguez family. Most of their team entered Zone 7, while three of them entered the top three zones respectively.
Many people were surprised by such a development.
Three of the Rodriguez' candidates had gone to the top three zones. Looks like they have high hopes.
The talents from the Jin family blinked, then followed right after to enter the planet.
"Hahaha, let's go too!" The talents from the Xiahou family laughed and rose into the air.
The floodgates had opened. The remaining members of the big families and the princes left for the Battle Planet. Only the Parkers remained.
They were looking at Wang Teng, waiting for him to move first.
The crown prince stood up and rubbed the Golden Wing Crimson Celestial Tiger's head. The latter growled softly and disappeared.
Wang Teng frowned when he saw this.
The crown prince probably had a space where he could store living creatures too.
It was understandable. Someone like him was uniquely blessed by heaven; he wouldn't lack opportunities.
Once the big tiger disappeared, the crown prince walked towards the Battle Planet.
He surpassed many martial warriors with every step he took, surpassing even those who left before him. He took the lead in just a blink, then entered Zone 1.
Wang Teng looked away, then he peeked at the Parkers from the corner of his eye. He gave them a cold smile.
Their intentions were loud and clear.
"Wang Teng, have made your choice?" Song Yicheng asked. There was no one else around them.
Wang Teng didn't reply, asking back instead, "Which zone are you planning to go to?"
"I'm going to Zone 1!" Song Yicheng and the others said, "Do you plan to go to other zones?"
"No!" Wang Teng frowned. "Nevermind, all of you can go ahead. Let me think about it."
