Red River Prodigy.
Wang Ye wore a virtual reality helmet and watched the match.
He was in a virtual space that looked like a private room. Beside him stood the handsome Xi Yan in a light green battle suit.
The scene in front of him was very familiar. It was the standard world battlefield of the Top 10 Round-Robin Tournament.
At this moment, the final round of the competition was underway.
Guo Ying, who had won all eight of his matches and was currently ranked number one, was going up against Zhuan Sunqing, who had six victories and two losses.
Stage 3 internal worlds clashed. A middle-grade supreme treasure and a high-grade indestructible artifact’s cosmic secret erupted. Saber intent and sword intent collided crazily!
In the end, Zhuan Sunqing’s Kuanghou Sword Form was shattered along with the supreme treasure sword in his hand.
Guo Ying won all nine battles and became the champion of the Qingye Starfield.
Zhuansun Qing, with a record of six wins and three losses, barely managed to advance to fifth place.
“What do you think?” Xi Yan looked at Wang Ye.
“It’s impressive.” Wang Ye was still immersed in what he had just watched.
Even the defeated Zhuansun Qing was stronger than his past self during the Top 10 Round-Robin Tournament.
As for Guo Ying, who had won nine out of nine battles, he might not be able to defeat the other party now. His saber was too powerful.
“The standard of the starfield empire is too high.” Xi Yan sighed. “The Qingye Empire is only an ordinary starfield empire, but they already have such strength. Compared to us, the Top 10 Round-Robin Tournament’s standards are on a completely different level.”
“Yes, I gained quite a lot.” Wang Ye nodded.
After becoming an honorary 4-star cosmic citizen, his authority increased. He could already access the starfield empires’ supernet and watch live broadcasts.
“I hope it won’t affect your preparations.” Xi Yan revealed a worried expression.
“It won’t.” Wang Ye said. “1 know the difference in strength between me and the Super Star-level geniuses from the starfield empires and eternal nations. Knowing myself and my enemy will help me prepare for battle more effectively and increase my combat prowess.”
“That’s good.” Xi Yan smiled. “By the way, when are you arriving at Honghe Planet? I’ll come and pick you up.”
“Soon, another 30 cosmic days,” Wang Ye said.
“Good! I’ll treat you to a tour of Honghe Planet!” Xi Yan said happily.
“Then 1 won’t stand on ceremony.” Wang Ye laughed.
Wang Ye took off the virtual reality helmet and let out a sigh.
He had mixed feelings.
He hoped that the Supernova Prodigy Tournament would begin as soon as possible as he was eager to compete with the top Super Star-level geniuses of the human starfield, but he also hoped that it would delay to give him more time to prepare and increase his strength.
“With my current combat prowess, 1 can probably be in the top three in an ordinary starfield empire.” Wang Ye was very clear.
If it was his past self back during the Top 10 Round-Robin Competition, it would be difficult for him to even enter an ordinary starfield empire’s Top 10 Round-Robin Competition.
In these three years, he had improved greatly.
The strengthening of his strength level foundation, the improvement of his time attainment, and especially the breakthrough of his top-rank internal world to stage 2 had increased his combat prowess greatly.
Even if he were to fight against Guo Ying, the number one expert of the Qingye Starfield, he might not necessarily lose.
But that was all.
Guo Ying’s strength was only at the lower middle level in the Supernova Prodigy Tournament.
“Saber techniques and treasures.” Wang Ye knew his current shortcomings very well.
He had been tricked by Wu Yuan.
The bloodline of Treasure Hunting wasn’t anything special.
A first-tier top-rank bloodline?
Weren’t other people’s treasures still more powerful than his?
Sigh, it was good to have a strong background.
He was from a poor background and could only slowly accumulate.
“Void Bind Ring.” Wang Ye rubbed the ability user supreme treasure component on his finger.
It was one of the Five Bind Rings.
One component was with Wu Yuan’s younger brother, Wu Tan, of the Treasure Trove Pirates.
He could only detect one of the remaining three components, and it was quite far away. He couldn’t sense the presence of the other two. They might have been concealed or sealed.
That being said, the Five Bind Rings were scattered within the Red River Cosmic Nation, so they were basically within the country.
“Numerous supreme treasures of the Red River Cosmic Nation are within the Honghe Planet’s Red River Supreme Treasure Vault. Perhaps one of the two components is hidden there.” Wang Ye liked the Five Bind Rings.
A pure ability user treasure, it was easy to use and easy to refine.
He could now already unleash the Void Bind Ring’s effects fully, and the power of his ability spells had increased greatly.
Even if he didn’t use the cosmic secret, just the fact it could passively improve his ability spells and give him a huge ability reserve made it a very practical supreme treasure.
On the fifteenth day after leaving Lemei Star, Wang Ye comprehended Time Thought.
His consciousness instantly landed.
[Do you wish to spend 50,000,000 potential points to upgrade Time Thought?]
[Yes.]
[Do you wish to spend 400 million potential points to upgrade Time Thought?]
[Yes!]
In the space of consciousness, Wang Ye comprehended the profound mysteries of time.
Soon, he comprehended the last advanced path of time to stage 3.
At this point, he had comprehended all three advanced paths of time.
“My time talent is indeed stronger than my space talent.” Wang Ye thought to himself.
Although they were both advanced paths, his comprehension of the advanced paths of time was only slightly slower than the advanced paths of space.
Normally speaking, the comprehension of the path of time was much harder than that of the path of space.
The path of space was often comprehended only after one reached the Super Star level while comprehension of the path of time only began at the Black Hole level.
But now, he had almost closed the gap between the two.
“Perhaps, other than the top-rank internal world, 1 can have another forte.” Wang Ye changed his original plan and shifted his target to comprehend the top-rank world paths.
In the Taishi Starfield breakout competition, the Super Star-level geniuses he had encountered had only grasped the advanced paths of time, and they were already considered geniuses.
In the entire human starfield cosmic, not many could cultivate three advanced paths of times to stage 3 like him.
As for comprehending the top-rank paths of time, that was even rarer.
“Even if 1 comprehend it, it’ll only be at the beginning stage.” Wang Ye was very clear.
This was because cultivating the top-rank paths of time required advanced paths of time as the foundation.
Without a solid foundation, the higher the level, the slower the comprehension.
“I just need to get to the beginner stage and gain enough potential points… Then, 1 can reach stage 3 or even higher in a short time!”
Top-rank stage 3 path of time!
At the Super Star level, even if it was not the peak, it was not much different.
Unless he encountered a true time-system genius, a monster from a top-rank time planet who had ultimate talent in the time system… He couldn’t compare to someone like that.
On the other hand, there were too many geniuses who had comprehended the top-rank path of space.
He would follow this path!
Wang Ye instantly made a decision.
His clone began to comprehend Time Stop, the most widely used cosmic secret and also the most powerful top-rank path of time!
“My foundation is insufficient.” Wang Ye cultivated for a while and soon realized something.
It was extremely difficult!
Even if he was talented, it would not work.
Whether it was comprehension through the top internal world, arrangement of the sub-origin of time, or deduction from the advanced path of time, there was no way.
“After all, it’s a top-rank path of time that even Undying Lifeforms find difficult to comprehend.” Wang Ye opened his interface.
[Do you wish to spend 3.2 billion potential points to upgrade Time Twinkle?]
[Yes!]
[Do you wish to spend 3.2 billion potential points to upgrade Time Parallel?]
[Yes!]
Wang Ye upgraded his three advanced paths of time to stage 4.
With a more solid foundation and improved time attainment, he quickly entered the enlightenment stage.
Compared to the previous feeling of being unable to grasp the technique, the 9.6 billion potential points he spent had closed the gap between him and the top-rank path of time.
There was a chance!
There was still a long time.

They arrived at the main planet of Lemei Planet, the nine-star life planet, Hongbei Planet.
It took less than a cosmic year.
Compared to the cosmic warp starship that transported slaves, the speed of the origin energy ship was much faster.
They didn’t stay on Hongbei Planet.
After verifying his four-star honorary cosmic citizen status and paying a usage fee of 100 million dark crystals, Wang Ye teleported to the main planet of the Red River Cosmic Nation through the eternal artifact.
The ten-star life planet, Honghe Planet!
“So this is an eternal artifact comparable to an innate supreme treasure.” Wang Ye’s horizons were greatly broadened.
The price of a space-type eternal artifact was hard to estimate.
The usage fee of 100 million dark crystals was only a fee for the energy to activate the eternal artifact, and it wasn’t expensive.
However, he still felt some heartache.
That was 100 million dark crystals!
It was enough to sustain his top-rank internal world for a few days.
After reaching stage 2, the cost of the top-rank internal world increased tenfold!
Fortunately, he had the dark origin crystal cluster to hold it off for the time being. However, once the dark origin crystal cluster was all absorbed, it would start devouring his bank card.
This was much more expensive than raising a girlfriend.
But…
“The cosmic is so big. It’s really amazing.” Wang Ye looked at the display on the radar screen and was shocked.
It was like space travel. He teleported a million light years away, which was ten galaxies away.
This was not a cosmic wormhole, but the pinnacle of human technology.
An eternal artifact!
Beside him, Nante, Lingling, and the others were also deeply shocked.
Previously, in the Milky Way, a cosmic wormhole could only cross 10,000 light-years at most. This time, the distance had increased by a hundred times!
The cosmic was too vast.
Chimeng Galaxy was shrouded in a layer of dark clouds consisting of anger, depression, and helplessness.
The Chimeng family, founded by an Undying Lifeform ancestor, Chimeng, was now left with only two-thirds of its territory!
A total of 11 seven-star life galaxies.
He originally thought that the cosmic nation taking back 2 seven-star life galaxies was already a huge loss.
Who would have thought that another one would be taken away because of Wang Ye’s request?!
Furthermore, it was the Baiyu Galaxy with the most abundant resources!
For a long time, Chimeng King Luojin could not swallow this anger.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the ancestors had already bought the area where the main planet was, it would probably have been taken away too.
The Chimeng family’s huge foundation was about to be destroyed in his hands!
“Why is Wang Ye on Honghe Planet?” Chimeng King Luojin was stunned.
“He used the space teleportation eternal artifact,” King Chiya said.
“Nonsense, I know that.” Chimeng King Luojin frowned.
That brat was really rich! To think he was willing to pay too million dark crystals for the teleportation.
The Chimeng family only had a few billion in liquid funds.
“He should be going to meet with the cosmic nation’s imperial family. I heard that many of the 13 imperial families are planning to recruit him.” King Chiya said, “Giving the Baiyu Galaxy to Wang Ye this time is a big signal of goodwill towards him.”
Chimeng King Luojin’s expression was grave.
Wang Ye’s current identity was very different from before. As long as he joined the imperial family, it was completely possible for him to crush the declining Chimeng family with the imperial family’s power.
They had to protect themselves!
“Immediately contact the top-rank galaxy commander. I want to see Lord Mu,” Chimeng King Luojin said in a deep voice.
“Yes, Family Leader.” King Chiya replied..
