Creating Heavenly Laws

Chapter 57

The arena matches are not only popular on Canglan Star but are also one of the most heated and widely observed events across the entire Universe Human Alliance.

Only evolvers under the age of one hundred can participate in the arena matches, making them the future of the Universe Human Alliance, and they naturally carry a certain "celebrity" effect.

In the interstellar era, citizens are no longer interested in those with no combat power. Evolvers with great strength become the focus of attention.

In the virtual world of Canglan Star, there is a massive arena similar to the ancient Roman Colosseum. It is surrounded by densely packed seats, numbering in the hundreds of thousands.

At the top of the arena, on a high platform, President Liao, Lin Yuan, and others appeared.

"This is the arena in Dongning City. If Dongning City is drawn in the upcoming arena matches, it will be held here," President Liao says, addressing Lin Yuan, while Zong Bai, Cao Rong, and others, having participated in multiple arena matches, are already familiar with the setup.

"Understood," Lin Yuan nods as he gazes down at the arena.

"Don't be too nervous. Just play normally, and don't put too much pressure on yourselves," President Liao consoles them. Putting too much pressure before the arena matches can be counterproductive.

"President Liao, I wonder who our opponents from Dongning City are this time. Could you arrange someone to predict it?" asks Lu Xiguang in a low voice, causing the interest of Cao Rong and Zong Bai to peak.

Knowing the opponent in advance would provide a significant advantage. Since most evolution paths have strengths and weaknesses, being able to prepare in advance gives a substantial tactical advantage.

"How can we predict with so many cities in the eastern continent?" President Liao rolls his eyes. While predicting specific opponents is impossible, the general range can be determined.

The initial opponents in the arena matches are selected based on past performances. In simple terms, the strength of Dongning City's opponent shouldn't be much higher.

"Alright, go and prepare. There are still two hours left before the arena matches begin, and the opponents will be announced then," President Liao says.

The start of the arena matches is a grand event throughout Canglan Star. Even though the majority of citizens cannot enter the virtual world, they can watch the matches through broadcasts.

"Wow, Mom, Dad, come quickly and watch the arena matches!" Lin Yi sits on the sofa, surrounded by four holographic screens displaying the arena scenes.

"Okay, okay, we're coming," Lin Shoucheng and his wife walk over with smiles on their faces. They are both evolvers and have the right to enter the virtual world. However, since Lin Yi isn't an evolver, they can't abandon her to enjoy the virtual world alone.

"Where's my brother?" Lin Yi keeps looking around.

Lin Yuan is also participating in the arena matches, representing Dongning City. Lin Shoucheng and his wife are naturally aware of this.

"Will he appear only after it starts?"

Lin Qiong smiled.

"I hope my brother does well."

Lin Yi clenched her fist.

"In this arena match, I must show my father that I'm not much weaker than Lin Yuan."

In the virtual world, in the arena area, Lin Yan's figure appeared, secretly making a decision.

A year ago, at the Lin family banquet, his father, Lin Hao, intended to give Lin Yuan the opportunity to undergo cultivation. However, because he spoke a few more words, it created an awkward atmosphere. The presence of several dignitaries made Lin Hao embarrassed.

Lin Hao, holding a grudge against Lin Yan, scolded and even personally beat him that night after returning from the family banquet. With this experience, Lin Yan finally entered the ranks of evolvers several months later.

Today, although he has not advanced to the next stage, he has qualified to participate in the arena matches.

The target audience of the arena matches is all evolvers. City representatives face each other, and so do independent evolvers.

Although Lin Hao knows that his strength is still far from that of Lin Yuan, the reason President Liao personally attended the family banquet has been investigated by his father. Now Lin Yan at least has the possibility of looking up to Lin Yuan. Since he can look up, he can surpass in the future.

"The arena match has started?"

"Hurry, go watch."

"I don't know what achievements Dongning City can make in this arena match."

"Hahaha, just don't finish at the bottom like the last time."

The citizens of Dongning City opened the real-time broadcast and watched attentively.

In the virtual world of Canglan Star, in the arena area:

"It's over, it's over. The opponent for Dongning City this time is actually Zijing City."

Cao Rong, who learned about the opponent as the arena match officially began, felt a sudden panic.

Beside him, Lu Xiguang was also the same. Zijing City was the opponent they least wanted to face among the predicted opponents.

In the last arena match, Dongning City was ranked 9,985, while Zijing City was 7,652, a difference of more than two thousand places. It is said that the strongest evolver in Zijing City followed the "Giant" evolution path.

Once fully unleashed, his body could expand to a height of five meters. Although his strength was also at the first rank and twelfth stage, his true combat power was close to the second rank.

Dealing with such an evolver was not easy, especially since the Giant evolution path's evolvers typically had a weakness in speed. However, running away on the arena was challenging.

The virtual world's authorities would shrink the arena space to prevent evolvers from deliberately prolonging the match. In the last arena match, Zijing City achieved a rank of over 7,000, thanks to this Giant-evolver.

"Giant" Lu Xiguang sighed. This evolution path required innate divine power and a physique stronger than ordinary evolvers to practice.

"It is indeed troublesome" Zong Bai, who had been silent, furrowed his brows. He seemed to think of something, and his brows slightly relaxed. "But don't panic; we still have Mr. Lin."
