Chapter 3595: AdvancementEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Fang Heng, led by the elder, arrived at the teleportation hall in the rear of Tiger Venerable’s temple and entered a dimensional duel space that had been opened.

"Your trial will take place here. In one hour, you will face the challengers from this dimensional world region in sequence. The total challenge duration is three hours. If you fail, you will be eliminated. If a single challenge does not reach a conclusion within three minutes, you will automatically win."

The elder nodded at Fang Heng, calmly stepped aside, and continued, "I am the judge for this competition. Victory or defeat is determined by one side losing combat strength or surrendering."

Fang Heng quickly understood.

In the preliminaries, Tiger Venerable’s region would select a total of ten martial artists.

He temporarily ranked first, so he would face the challenges from all the following participants.

The God King and Zane, ranking outside the top ten, would act as challengers.

Fine.

He would wait.

Fang Heng patiently stood in place, closed his eyes to rest, and browsed the ancient books recorded in his sea of consciousness, hoping to try his luck and search for clues to the remaining two gemstones.

Time passed, minute by minute.

After an unknown duration, Fang Heng finished reading another book in the sea of consciousness, suddenly realized something, opened his eyes, and turned to the blue-robed judge beside him. "Senior, quite a lot of time has passed, right? Has it not started yet?"

"No, it is almost over."

The blue-robed elder shook his head lightly and said, "There are ten minutes left until the preliminaries end. So far, no one has challenged you."

"Uh..."

Fang Heng opened his mouth, momentarily taken aback.

The martial artists participating in the Martial Apex Tournament were not fools.

His fight with Gideon had long since spread throughout the dimensional world region.

Anyway, only the top ten needed to advance in the semifinals. Who would choose to challenge the strongest, ranked first?

Moreover, in their view, Fang Heng acted extremely arrogantly and ruthlessly. Gideon’s brother killed without hesitation. No one wanted to risk their life in such a place.

Another ten minutes passed, and the preliminaries officially ended. The blue-robed elder led Fang Heng out of the Trial Tower’s teleportation passage and back to the teleportation hall.

From start to finish, Fang Heng had not fought once and smoothly advanced to the semifinals.

At that moment, he saw the other nine martial artists gradually emerging from their dimensional duel spaces.

Zane ranked fourth, looking relaxed. Upon exiting the space, he waved at Fang Heng.

The God King looked extremely exhausted, his spirit a little waning. He had thought that after so much effort he would finally achieve his goal, but as soon as he left the teleportation passage, he saw Fang Heng and Zane advancing effortlessly, and he could only bitterly smile.

Those two...

Fine.

The real clown turned out to be himself.

In this type of challenge, the lower your rank, the more challengers you would face.

He had chosen to challenge the eighth-ranked opponent. After winning, he still had to face the following challengers in a wheel battle, and only by using time-wasting tactics could he barely win.

Gideon, emerging from the second trial passage, saw Fang Heng, ranked first, and a look of resentment immediately appeared in his eyes.

Patience.

Not yet.

Gideon closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and restrained the killing intent in his heart.

He had promised Realm Venerable.

When the semifinals began, he could take revenge on Fang Heng at any time.

Tiger Venerable, escorted by two blue-robed elders, arrived at the teleportation hall and scanned everyone with his gaze, secretly pleased.

Good! Very good!

Several fresh faces had advanced to the semifinals of the Martial Apex Tournament, and their strength was decent.

Especially Fang Heng.

Although this kid did not get along with the God Clan and was an unstable factor, his power was genuinely impressive.

A true stat freak.

Ordinary martial artists were really hard to deal with.

This Martial Apex Tournament should yield a good result.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Tiger Venerable’s mouth as he praised, "Not bad, not bad. Versailles, the newcomers you’ve unearthed this time are quite impressive. It’s clear you put in effort."

Versailles clasped his fists. "Thanks, Tiger Venerable, for your guidance!"

Tiger Venerable waved his hand, then looked at the martial artists and continued, "The official semifinals will begin seven days from now on the Dimensional Emperor’s island. The Dimensional Emperor’s island is the center of the entire dimensional world. There, the dimensional rifts are more intense, and the cultivation grounds are of a higher level than here. Correspondingly, you will encounter stronger martial artists."

"I know some of you have conflicts with martial artists from other dimensional world regions. I need to remind you of two points. First, fighting is not allowed on the Dimensional Emperor’s island, or you will be expelled from the dimensional world and never allowed to enter again."

"Second, once you leave the Dimensional Emperor’s island, combat between martial artists is allowed. Life or death depends on your own skill. Do not expect me to intervene. Understood?"

"Yes, Tiger Venerable."

"Let’s go."

Tiger Venerable nodded at Versailles.

Versailles stepped forward and activated the teleportation passage.

...

Dimensional Emperor Island.

Fang Heng stepped onto the island through the teleportation passage, opened his eyes, and surveyed his surroundings.

The Dimensional Emperor’s island was not simply an island, but a large, semi-circular planet with a giant vertical white prism piercing through its very center.

Dimensional crystals!

The giant dimensional crystal radiated wave after wave of dimensional ripples.

Fang Heng had never seen such a massive dimensional crystal before.

Looking closely, the highest part of the crystal vaguely revealed the shadow of a tower.

Had someone actually built a tower on a giant dimensional crystal?

Their strength must be extraordinary!

Fang Heng felt a hidden shock in his heart.

The dimensional crystal was extremely hard and unstable; violent impacts had a high probability of shattering the entire crystal.

How had that person managed to do it?

"We have arrived. As you can see, that is the central dimensional prism. The top level of the prism is the residence of the organizer of this Martial Apex Tournament, the Dimensional Emperor. Do not approach."

Tiger Venerable then pointed to the nearest tower. "This tower belongs to our dimensional world domain. You can return here to rest."

Fang Heng followed Tiger Venerable’s direction and saw eight large towers levitating around the white crystal.

The one Tiger Venerable pointed out was the cyan-colored tower.

"That is the cultivation area. You can cultivate your academic disciplines there. The speed is definitely faster than outside. Do not waste this opportunity," Tiger Venerable said, pausing and scanning everyone. "Here, reaching God-level Great Perfection in your academic levels is just a stepping stone. More bricks are always better."

"The Trial Tower is over there. If you want practical combat training, you can enter the Trial Tower directly. Of course, you can also spend a bit more dimensional crystals to find sparring partners. Trust me, it’s worth it."

"Over there is the dimensional market. You can find all sorts of rare weapons and items. The prices are not low, so think carefully."
