The First Store System

Chapter 743: The Beginning of the Competition!!!

The 247,589,021 participants looked at Aakesh with curious expressions since it was time for Aakesh to announce the format of the competition.

Aakesh didn’t let down the curious participants as he decided to start explaining the format of the competition, but before that, he waved his hands.

The next moment, a tower made of concrete emerged behind Aakesh. The height of the tower was only sixteen meters, with each floor being four meters. The structure was like a cylinder, as the area of all four levels looked the same from the outside.

All the participants and the people seated on their chairs got curious to know what the tower implied. But none of them dared to ask Aakesh as he would be explaining it soon.

“The competition for the territory in Panagea would be different than the last years as everyone knows it,” Aakesh said.

Many people in the crowd nodded since the last competitions had been different every year, and till this point, it hadn’t repeated. Every year it was new and provided the same entertainment to the attendees.

“This year’s competition would play out in the tower.”

“The tower has four floors in total..,” Aakesh began explaining the format of the competition to the participants, and the people in the crowd intently listened.

The tower proudly standing behind Aakesh contained four floors, and each level was a world in itself.

To be precise, each floor contained an endless amount of worlds.

Once Aakesh activated the tower, the number of worlds would get fixed to 247,589,021, signifying the number of participants in the competition.

The number of worlds would be the same for all four floors after the tower’s activation.

Unlike the first event, Aakesh didn’t set the competition as anytime for the people. When the participants standing on the platform entered, that would be it for the number of competitors fighting for territory in Panagea.

Each world had the same rules. So everyone would get the same start. Luck would also play no factor in this competition. In the last several contests, people got a different start in the beginning due to the difference in their fortunes, and it played a considerable role in deciding the winner.

Aakesh wanted a competition of nothing but skills this time, so he set an equivalent start for every contest. Luck would always play a role, so Aakesh only decided to make the same start for everyone.

After entering the tower, each participant would find themselves in a different world.

The four floors contained the same number of worlds in them, but the difference between the rules and levels was like heaven and earth.

For the competition, Aakesh had designed a simple power system, starting from Level 1 and ending at Level 11.

Level 11 was the highest level in the tower, while participants would start as mortal in the contest.

The world inside the first floor was a low-level world, with the power level cap set at Level 3.

The world inside the second floor was a mid-level world, with the power level cap set at Level 6.

The world inside the third floor was a top-level world, with the power level cap set at Level 9.

The world inside the fourth floor was a peak-level world, with the power level cap set at Level 11.

After entering the tower, every participant would find themselves in a newborn body, like reincarnation. At that time, they would remember nothing but their goals for the competition.

The goal the participants had to win was conquering the world one by one, and only when they had conquered all four worlds would they reach the end stage.

If only one person successfully conquered all four worlds, that participant would get termed as the winner. They would then become the owner of territory in Panagea.

If in case there were many participants that conquered all four worlds, the second stage would begin.

The participants in question would then involve themselves in a ‘War of Worlds’, where each of them would compete against the other. The winner of the ‘War of Worlds’ would then become the owner of the territory in Panagea.

The participants would start from zero with nothing but this goal in their minds. Any fighting techniques or skills they had in the Primal dimension wouldn’t help them in the competition.

The contest didn’t ask for the participant to conquer the worlds by their strength. If they wanted to win, they would have to start an organization, and only when that organization would be the last standing in all four worlds would they be eligible to win or fight in the second stage.

The contest not only forced them to grow their strength but also checked their leadership skills. The people in the worlds would behave the same as the actual living beings, and the participants would have to face the same conflict as any organization encounters in the Primal dimension.

Aakesh also hid some rules from the participants. He told them to discover those on their own, increasing the difficulty of the quest even further.

The attendees seated on their chairs had excited expressions since they would be able to see so many things in the contest, and they might even learn things from the way the participants struggled in the competition.

The majority of the participants didn’t share the same expression as the attendees since the contest difficulty had crossed the level they had expected.

From listening to the format, it sounded simple. But when the participants dug more in-depth, they found out just how difficult the contest was going to be for them.

Aakesh also knew the difficulty this year was high. But it wasn’t the harshest contest for the territory in Panagea, Aakesh had set over these past years, but it was only the third most challenging competition.

Similar to the past contest for territory in Panagea, it was a time-consuming competition.

Even though Aakesh had simplified the power system into eleven levels, and four sub-levels, many knew it wouldn’t be easy to reach Level 11.

To solve the time issue, the system slowed down the time in the store. It was done so attendees could follow every action of the participants in the competition.
