BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1133 The First Round
"Seriously, what\'s a planet? Is that like a spatial realm or something?"
Unsurprisingly, many of the people on the field became confused once Scho\'doxa was finished talking about the special opportunity he was talking about. After all, the man made use of jargon that sounded like gibberish to them.
Fortunately, there were a few that understood what the man was saying, their eyes glinting in excitement as they gave everyone else a brief explanation as to what a planet was.
As for Valyr, he was still left at a loss for words from what he just heard, ignoring all of the discussions that were happening around him regarding planets and what they were.
Thankfully, it only took a bit more time after that for him to finally regain his bearings, prompting him to let out a faint sigh as he looked at the four surrounding him.
"To think Veldanyr was a planet…" Wells muttered, with Edward nodding in agreement. "I didn\'t know that."
"I\'ve heard some of the guild\'s senior members back then mention about there being other planets beyond ours," said Julian as he looked at Noel. "However, this is the first time I\'ve heard of a planet that also has life in them."
"It\'s more common than you\'d think," replied Noel. "Though, only those that have broken through the Myth level are able to explore them, much less travel to them in the first place."
"According to them, heading to one takes at least a century, sometimes even longer."
Unintentionally listening in on the conversation between Julian and Noel, both Edward and Wells paled after hearing the words that left Noel\'s mouth.
As for Julian, the man frowned for a bit before glancing at Valyr, only to notice that the young man did not seem surprised by the information at all.
\'Well… he did enter the Four Pillars\' Inheritance back then.\' Just as Julian was about to ask him why he didn\'t seem so surprised about it, a sudden thought allowed the man to answer his own question. \'He probably received knowledge on planets from there.\'
Oblivious to what was going on in Julian\'s mind, Valyr briefly pondered over the words Scho\'doxa mentioned earlier, only to then realize what was going on as he put two and two together.
\'Special opportunity… upcoming version…\' inwardly murmured the young man to himself as his eyes gleamed with understanding not long after. \'Now I see what\'s going on.\'
\'From the special opportunity alone, I should\'ve figured out that this tournament had something to do with the public version of Greater Beyond,\' thought Valyr after that as he inwardly had a wry smile. \'Though I\'m not sure what Scho\'doxa means by finding certain individuals through the tournament, what I am sure of is the fact that this tournament is highly likely to be the system\'s way of preparing everyone for the players.\'
"Alright." After giving everyone on the field more than enough time to talk about the opportunity, Scho\'doxa\'s voice echoed throughout the area once more, causing everyone to immediately turn silent.
"Now that I\'ve roughly said everything I needed to say for now, let us move onto the first round of the tournament."
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
At the moment the man was finished saying those words, the man conjured a ball of energy on both hands before throwing them in the air.
Then, within a matter of seconds, those balls of energy transformed into carbon copies of the man that hovered before them, causing many to look at Scho\'doxa with widened eyes.
Throwing a few more pairs of energy balls into the air after that, the man eventually made nine copies of himself in total, controlling them with his thoughts to stand on both of his sides.
"As I\'ve mentioned before, the first round shall act as a filter," said Scho\'doxa, his words also echoing out from the nine copies at the same time. "In short, I\'ll be checking to see if your strength is enough for the second round."
"If you meet the minimum qualifications I have in mind, then you pass."
"If you don\'t, then I shall be returning you to your home planet."
"Though, aside from returning you to your home planet, for those that don\'t pass the first round, I shall also be giving you the title of Tier I Being before you leave," continued the man, causing everyone to raise their eyebrows in curiosity as to what the title meant.
"This is the lowest title everyone here is guaranteed to obtain, which has something to do with the upcoming version."
With that, Scho\'doxa then began to explain to everyone that once the new version finally arrived, an influx of beings that looked like them would appear out of thin air all of a sudden, all of them having the ability to speak their language.
Hearing that all of these beings had the protection of the system, almost everyone on the field were left at a slight loss for words, with some of them even fearing that those beings would take over what they had.
Thankfully, the man\'s explanation after that, alleviated many of the people\'s worries, telling them that those beings were more likely to aid them in their various problems rather than not.
Other than that, those beings would also all start at Rank 0, which was more or less the same level of strength everyone on the field started with.
Of course, as someone who had memories from his past life, Valyr knew that Scho\'doxa was talking about none other than the players of Greater Beyond, prompting him to be more certain of his hypothesis from earlier.
\'I still don\'t know what Tier I Being means, but I\'ll be able to find that out sooner or later.\'
With that thought in mind, Valyr watched as Scho\'doxa and his nine copies landed to the ground before evenly distancing themselves from one another.
Then, in unison, the ten of them told everyone on the fall in line in front of the nearest Scho\'doxa to them, telling them that all they needed to do was to have him look at them before being informed whether they passed or failed.
And with that, amidst the slight confusion, the first round began.
