The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

“If you have any questions, you can ask directly.”

As his words fell, a countdown appeared in the air beside him.

In the group of participants, a voice was the first to speak.

“What is the initial evaluation criteria for the Star Ascending Arena?”

“It’s talent, strength, and other comprehensive information.”

Chasing Star answered steadily, “Everything is based on the Federation’s data standard for the same age group. As long as you are excellent enough, you can start competing on a higher-level arena for more rewards.”

“There are no spectators on the Star Ascending Arena?”

“Due to certain special reasons, there are no live spectators for this competition.”

“What aspects are involved in the arena rewards?”

“This is confidential information of the Star Ascending Arena, you need to verify everything by yourselves.”

“How are the opposing parties determined?”

“They are randomly assigned by the Star Ascending Arena.”

Many questions were raised in a short amount of time.

Qin Jin stood in place, listening quietly.

He did not ask any questions.

To be able to enter the top five hundred, there couldn’t be any simple characters. From their questions, he already had a basic understanding of the Star Ascending Arena.

As for the rest…

It’s just a battle after all.

At this moment.

A voice rose not far from the side.

“Something doesn’t feel right.”

The speaker was a second-year student, Hua Jieyu.

After being sent to the Star Ascending Arena, they took positions similar to when they were on the ground. Surrounded by competitors promoted from Martial Abyss, as she spoke, others’ attention turned to her.

Facing the focus of the crowd, Hua Jieyu lowered her voice slightly, “In previous Limit-Breaking Cups, there were days in between team and individual matches, giving participants preparation time.”

“Now, they are proceeding directly one after another.”

“I’m afraid it’s related to this Star Ascending Arena.”

Shi Luoshu’s voice sounded, a thoughtful glint flashing in his eyes, “In previous Limit-Breaking Cups, they were never held in this Extraordinary venue.”

His gaze shifted, looking towards the stellar creations representing different arenas ahead.

“The individual matches have an arena elimination system, but the uniqueness of the Star Ascending Arena determines that as long as you have accumulated enough, even if you are eliminated by a strong opponent, there is still a chance to receive rewards.”

“Being able to battle on this arena can be considered a benefit for us.”

“Everyone.”

He looked at the surrounding Wuyuan students, “We’ve already secured first place in the team matches.”

“We must also strive to take the lead in the individual matches!”

A response echoed.

Time ticked by second by second.

As they left the planet, during the [Star Ascending] process, the state of each participant had recovered. As the start approached, they no longer asked questions but focused on adjusting their own condition.

When the countdown completely ended.

With a sound like a pendulum striking a clock wall, at that moment, in the arena area ahead, those arena-like planets simultaneously underwent changes!

Radiance flowed, like curtains being drawn. Below the arenas remain like planets, while above transformed into arenas of varying sizes and shapes, appearing as if planets were lifting a martial arena.

“Limit-Breaking Cup individual elimination match.”

“Officially begins!”

As Chasing Star’s words fell, an aura rose beneath each participant’s feet, and their figures disappeared.

When they reappeared.

They were already in the arena.

…

Inside the planet.

A giant screen hung in the sky.

On the giant screen, the implementation status of the Star Ascending Arena was displayed. In the square below, in addition to the participants, some leading teachers of the academies also chose to come here to watch together.

Now, as the participants ascended the arena, exclamations arose.

“Most of the students have appeared in mid to upper-level arenas.”

“Points may not fully reflect strength, but to enter the top five hundred, there can’t be any simple characters, so it’s normal.”

“There are even participants appearing on the highest arena.”

“Does this mean, in the initial evaluation of the Star Ascending Arena, these two were the most outstanding?”

“Not necessarily. The Star Ascending Arena randomly assigns opponents. It sounds like the opponents are determined first for battles, and then evaluated. Being able to compete on the uppermost arena only proves that their [overall evaluation score] surpassed the other participants.”

The communication continued.

The giant screen divided into sections, broadcasting the situation on each arena in real-time.

…

Teleporting to the arena.

At the moment of stepping on the arena, Qin Jin subconsciously looked around.

The space inside this arena was broader than observed from the outside, allowing participants to fully utilize their abilities. Around it, transparent barriers provided protection, offering a clear view of everything around.

Scanning over, on the parallel direction, no other arenas were seen.

Seeing this, Qin Jin raised an eyebrow.

“This is the highest arena.”

His gaze fell on the opposite side, where his opponent was a woman, who at the moment wore an expression of slight surprise.

In the middle, a light screen separated them, gradually dimming. The moment the light screen disappeared would signify the start of the battle.

As the light screen was about to dissipate, Qin Jin extended his hand, saying, “Wuyuan Qin Jin, please.”

The woman’s expression turned solemn, “Xingxuan Academy, Qi Baige.”

Xingxuan Academy.

One of the Seven Great Academies in the Corridor Star System.

As they conversed, the light screen in the middle completely dimmed, and the battle began!

In the instant the light screen dimmed, a dazzling light burst from Qi Baige’s eyes, primordial power surged, and a spiritual-level attack came.

After entering Innate, the Martial Arts Family combined two types of power, but with different inherent talents, the skills they specialize in also exhibited differences.

In his mind’s eye, in the Spiritual World, an irregular small star-like a meteor appeared, flames trailing behind it like a fiery shooting star, attacking Qin Jin, crashing into his Spiritual World.

“This is…”

“Divine Intent?”

“Such a peculiar evolution of Divine Intent.”

The thought flickered in his mind, Qin Jin’s Divine Intent manifested, a Golden Armored Divine General stood with a halberd, facing the incoming fiery shooting star, refusing to dodge, confronting it head-on.
