Wang Teng was fortunate, he didn't need to force himself and merely needed to collect attributes. If not, he might go crazy.
Who could go through enlightenment of a single ultima several times for no reason!
Next was the celestial realm spirit. His spiritual power was immense after continuously absorbing spirit attributes, heading toward an indomitable state.
He had also received some heaven realm enlightenment, which helped him increase his emperor-level attribute.
All the participants of the League of Talents were talented. Many of their enlightenments had reached the heaven realm, making the young hero's gains go to the roof.
Enlightenment: 62500/200000 (heaven realm)
Wang Teng looked at his attributes board in surprise. His enlightenment stat had crossed the sixty thousand mark. If he continued at that rate, he would advance to the universe realm soon.
He was overjoyed by the prospect while he continued looking at the other attributes.
The highlight was the two talent attributes that Wang Teng didn't have before.
Divine Level Metal Talent!
Divine Level Sword Talent!
He was momentarily overwhelmed. All these warriors have divine level talents. It's like they're free!
His talents were only at the imperial-level prior to the grand competition. There was no way he could compare to them!
The difference was too great.
Fortunately, he was able to make up for it. His talents were stronger now; almost none of the competitors was his match.
He felt the change as the new pair of divine level talents merged into his body. His understanding of the metal Force and swordsmanship deepened.
It was a subtle sensation. His enlightenment didn't increase; however, certain things from the past became clearer.

That was the good thing about improving talents!
Divine Level Metal Talent: 4100/50000
Divine Level Sword Talent: 2600/50000
He looked at his stats and discovered that his Divine Level Metal Talent improved greatly.
This is interesting!
Su Jianchen and Yuan Hong's metal talent were at the divine level, and they were evenly matched in this aspect.
However, the former's sword talent had also reached the divine level, and therefore had a deeper understanding. He was on another level, above Yuan Hong.
It was extremely rare for someone to have two divine level talents.
Our hero glanced at Ling Yangxu and Leng Qianxue. They too possessed two divine level talents!
What surprised him was the last attribute bubble… Unity of Man and Sword!
Wang Teng's body shook when the attribute bubble was absorbed into his body. He could feel a drastic change within.
An image instantly appeared in his mind.
A figure was accompanied by his sword while he cultivated, ate, and slept… He didn't leave the sword, nor did the sword leave him.
Day after day, year after year. The sword moved freely, attaining the acme of perfection.
He was suddenly enlightened. There was a sword in the hand but no sword in the heart; there was no concept of person and sword… The person and the sword became indistinguishable from each other.
Wang Teng gradually opened his eyes. A sword glow flashed in his eyes, going away in a blink.

The Crown Prince glanced at the rival earthling and frowned a bit. He felt a bit puzzled.
They were extremely close to Wang Teng so even though the sword consciousness was subtle, they could sense it.
However, they were unable to grasp what had happened, so they wrote it off as an illusion.
Unity of Man And Sword! Wang Teng's gaze was peculiar, and his expression odd.
Just like that?
Then, people would have to call me…
He shook his head, setting that absurd thought aside. Then, he looked at the battle arena to observe the next match.
The fight for the top 71 was intense. You could already tell from the first fight, when Su Jianchen and Yuan Hong faced off.
Once their match was over, other warriors who claimed top ten position in their chosen zones continued to be called up.
The Fifth Prince encountered Leng Qianxue!
He knew how powerful she was; his expression changed slightly.
However, being a lofty noble, he couldn't show a cowardly front. He had to press on.
Suddenly, he thought of something and smiled.
"I've looked you up. You're a fairy from planet Ice Fairy!" said the Fifth Prince via voice transmission.
Leng Qianxue's expression remained unchanged as she looked at her opponent calmly.
"I know you have a grudge with this generation's Ice Fairy King!" The Fifth Prince smiled.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})Leng Qianxue remained expressionless, but her heart wavered a little.
The noble was broaching the subject she least wanted to be brought up.
"Submit to me. I can help you," said the former, revealing his intentions through voice transmission.
There was an unnoticeable smile on his face. Leng Qianxue did give him a lot of pressure, but he suddenly recalled some details about her. This gave him confidence.
She remained silent; her gaze remained cold and outright ignored the proposal. She then stretched out a hand and released an attack.
The prince's smug expression stiffened.
"Impudent!"
Annoyed, he slashed towards the ice power move with his sword.
Both battled it out in the arena. Leng Qianxue was still as elegant and cold as ever; her ice froze everything, and the Fifth Prince was unable to defend against it, even after using his battle techniques and ultima.
He was in a mess, completely losing his princely grace. Ice then entered his body; he shivered and turned pale faced.
She had done so purposefully, to make him suffer.
The Fifth Prince was so angry he couldn't speak. He was no match for her; in the end his body was pierced by an ice cone. Blood spurted out of his body, as the injury was serious.
"Leng Qianxue won! As expected of my goddess!"
"Leng Qianxue is so strong. Not even the Fifth Prince is a match for her."
"But why was she so brutal against him? Isn't she afraid of offending the imperial family?"
"That's right. She wasn't that brutal against her previous opponents. She did things adequately before."
"Did the Fifth Prince do something to provoke her? I saw his perverted eyes just now. He was probably up to no good."
"Yes, that's right. I was wondering why he was looking at Leng Qianxue like that. Turns out he was being despicable."
"The Fifth Prince is awful!"
"Goddess, don't be afraid. We support you. Not even the Fifth Prince can do anything he wants."
"We support you, Goddess Leng!"
…
Many people on the live chat platform were surprised when they saw how Leng Qianxue had seriously injured the Fifth Prince.
After all, he was part of the imperial family. It was indeed a competition, but no one would be willing to offend him.
However, the crowd soon began to guess that the noble had done something to provoke her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been as brutal.
Still, the netizens of the virtual universe did have a rich imagination and keen observation skills. They didn't guess the correct reason, but it wasn't that important. The important thing was the result.
If the Fifth Prince learned that he was branded a 'pervert', he would probably vomit blood.
Of course, even if he didn't find out right then, he would soon enough. There was no running away.
He wouldn't be able to explain himself.
Berkshire didn't meet any strong opponents in that round, advancing smoothly.
As for Wade, he was once again eliminated magnificently.
Everyone believed that he wouldn't come out again from the revival round. Only one warrior could be selected to continue, and Yuan Hong himself would contend for it. He had no chance.
Wade would never be able to defeat Yuan Hong!
Wang Teng was waiting for his turn, but to no avail.
Parkers' no. 3 saw the remaining number of participants dwindle, noticing that Wang Teng had yet to enter the arena. The fellow had yet to be assigned an opponent, too, which suddenly made him anxious. Very, very anxious.
Am I this unlucky?
