"Today is the final day of the 'Divine Court Cup' alliance tournament," Song Luo swiftly began, "Today, the top ten of this competition will be determined, and the championship will be contested along with the ranking battles for the top ten. This will be the highest level of combat under the alliance's immortality, and I believe the audience, like me, is eagerly anticipating it."

"The rules for the tournament have already been announced, and I believe the audience is familiar with them. Let me briefly go over it again: Today's competition is divided into three rounds..."

Song Luo reiterated the competition rules and then began to analyze, "I believe everyone can see that compared to the previous two days, today's competition has more freedom."

"On one hand, because there are fewer competitors, it's more convenient to conduct such a high-degree-of-freedom competition."

"On the other hand, at this level of competitors, it's hard to single-handedly judge based on a unilateral advantage, and greater freedom allows them a better environment to perform."

As he spoke, the fifteen minutes before the match ended, and Song Luo shifted his tone, "Next up is the first round of the tournament—the Battle for the Stones!"

"Let's look forward to the performance of each contestant!"

…

In the arena, the voice of Xie Venerate echoed in the minds of all the competitors.

"The Battle for the Stones is about to begin, starting the countdown of ten seconds now."

As Xie Venerate's voice appeared, Wei Miao, who had not made a move in the past two days, standing next to Shen Yunshan, slowly raised its hand.

In an instant, the island was covered with an immense and vast power of the water element, like an inverted ocean hanging from the sky, bringing shock to all competitors present.

This is the first and currently the only seventh-stage immortal of Blue Star.

Pure Water Spirit, Wei Miao!

Its rule is the ocean!

In just a moment, a million dazzling beams of light shot into the sky!

Those are a million Water Crystal Stones scattered across the entire island, emitting an unprecedented brilliance due to the extreme water element rule!

As Wei Miao retracted its hand, the ocean quickly converged and dissipated, leaving only the million beams of light on the site.

While the competitors were still in a daze, Xie Venerate's countdown arrived as scheduled.

"Ten..."

"Nine..."

The competitors snapped out of their trance, quickly regaining their senses, and while the countdown proceeded, they glanced around, assessing which direction had the most beams of light.

Lin Su quickly withdrew Qiuqiu and Guigui, then tightly grasped the spear of Youyou's essence with one hand, quickly merging with Youyou, and then completing the attachment of the Cooperative External Armor.

"Two..."

"One... Begin!"

As Xie Venerate's voice faded, countless competitors in the arena began to move.

Lin Su took a step, and his figure quickly disappeared from where he was.

Spatial element teaching skill, Teleportation.

Even without Guigui, once merged with Youyou, Lin Su could flexibly use Teleportation to move.

Soon, he appeared in an area he had already targeted, where the beams of light were quite dense.

This one spot alone had at least dozens of them.

A figure quickly came rushing in this direction, clearly indicating that Lin Su wasn't the only one who noticed this place.

It was a king-tier exotic beast, and upon noticing Lin Su's presence before it even reached the place, it hesitated slightly and swiftly turned to another direction.

Perhaps it didn't think it would lose, or maybe it just felt that wasting time in battle wasn't worth it.

Whatever the reason, with the opponent leaving, Lin Su was happy to collect the Water Crystal Stones by himself.

The power of Telekinesis burst forth instantly, and the dozens of Water Crystal Stones around him fell into Lin Su's hands.

The moment they made contact, the water element power within the Water Crystal Stones dissipated, and their dazzling glow quickly dimmed until they were completely dull.

This water element power was injected into each Water Crystal Stone when Wei Miao made a move; it would dissipate quickly upon contact with a competitor.

This way, once the Water Crystal Stones were found, it would be difficult to know how many a competitor actually had.

This is one of the main challenges in this Battle for the Stones.

In an uncertain scenario like this, the stronger the contestant, the more likely it is to possess more stones.

So every competitor needs to choose stronger opponents as much as possible to force them to hand over their stones for more gains.

Of course, there's also the possibility of weaker contestants taking advantage of the chaos, which would also be a display of capability.

Everything is unknown.

Holding the Water Crystal Stones in his hand, Lin Su had a fleeting thought and then quickly infused his own water element power into them.

With water element power filling them, the Water Crystal Stones lit up again.

However, compared to the brilliance that shot into the sky when Wei Miao acted before, the light was now very faint.

The brightness of the Water Crystal Stones is also related to the strength of the water element power.

Lin Su's water element power was worlds apart from Wei Miao's.

However, he had already achieved his goal.

After dissipating the power so that the Water Crystal Stones darkened again, Lin Su's eyes flashed, and a good plan for seizing stones popped into his mind.

Of course, the implementation of this plan would be when all the Water Crystal Stones were found, and the half-hour countdown began.

What's important now is to find and collect as many Water Crystal Stones as possible first.

He had the Telekinesis to collect them and also the Teleportation from the spatial element, making him much more efficient than other contestants, an advantage he needed to use well.

Lin Su's figure flashed and disappeared again, heading towards another location.

…

In the live broadcast room.

The screen constantly switched across various parts of the island, bringing timely updates to the audience in the live broadcast room.

And the fleeting scenes would occasionally trigger waves of comments from the audience.

[3060: Those two contestants just met, why didn't they fight? Wasted my anticipation for a match.]
