In the Mountain River Secret Realm.

Hundreds of participants dashed from the edge of the map toward the ten towering peaks at the center.

The journey spanned a thousand kilometers.

Even these talented participants found it challenging to reach the destination quickly.

The Second Break powerhouses, although their endurance far exceeded that of ordinary people.

Still couldn't run a full thousand kilometers in one go.

Of course, the stronger the person, the longer they could maintain high speed, without a doubt.

Hence, ten minutes after the competition began, the gaps between the hundreds of participants began to gradually show.

In a northern area of the secret realm.

"Jiang Ye? In first place?"

Lin Qingxue's name might have the word 'snow', but she wore a black dress.

She sprinted forward while watching the projection on her wristband, a hint of surprise flashing in her beautiful eyes.

"It's only been ten minutes, and he's already near a hundred kilometers." Lin Qingxue was quite astonished.

"Could Jiang Ye have a speed-based innate ability?"

"If that's the case, his combat power might be somewhat weaker." Lin Qingxue pondered.

Quickly, she shook her head, dismissing these thoughts.

"Whoosh!" Lin Qingxue's figure was like lightning, continuously sprinting forward.

The race had just begun; an early lead proved nothing.

Only when everyone reached the central ten peaks would the real competition begin!

...

In a certain area in the south of the secret realm.

"Boom!"

In a valley, the purple-haired, rebellious youth Li Qi blocked the path of over ten participants.

Though he was alone, his martial arts qi spirit was more explosive than all of them combined.

His aura was as furious as a volcano.

"You have already been surrounded by me."

"Surrender now." Li Qi's expression was indifferent, as if looking at dead people, as he gazed at the more than ten participants before him.

"Friend, we have no intention to be your enemy; how about we join forces?" Someone among the group of more than ten shouted, seeing that Li Qi's strength was far beyond theirs.

This group was evidently a small collective, who had formed a temporary alliance upon entering the secret realm.

Now, they wanted to invite Li Qi to join them.

However, Li Qi paid no attention to them at all.

"Kill!"

He wielded the purple battle saber, his form like a bolt of lightning, instantly exploding with a roaring sound like a sonic boom.

The saber light surged like a tide, sweeping towards the more than ten participants.

Rumble~!

With just the first strike, he easily broke through one of their defenses, crushing him as if breaking dry wood, eliminating him.

"Damn."

"Retreat quickly, this guy is too strong." The more than ten participants scattered in all directions, fleeing.

"Can you escape?" Li Qi sneered, his figure turning into a phantom.

Boom!

Clang! Clang! Clang! His figure shifted, and every time he passed a participant, he casually struck down with two slashes, unleashing saber lights like a thousand layers of ocean waves.

Rumbling~ Rumbling~

Like slaughtering chicken chicks.

In merely ten seconds, Li Qi had eliminated all the participants.

"Too weak."

"Is this the level of the Genius Cup?" Li Qi's face showed mockery: "Do they dare call themselves geniuses?"

"Indeed."

"The Twenty-Five Schools Alliance, after all, is just second-rate schools, incomparable to the top ten." Li Qi slightly shook his head.

Beep! He opened the wristband projection, glancing at the overall participants' coordinates.

"Oh?"

"Jiang Ye? Already over two hundred kilometers?" Li Qi laughed: "This guy's speed is indeed fast, but I wonder how his battle power is."

"Hope he doesn't disappoint me."

Li Qi's eyes flickered with a gleam, he turned off the projection, and his figure dashed out again.

...

Time passed.

Hundreds of participants in the secret realm were continuously sprinting.

In the blink of an eye, forty minutes had passed.

In the Mountain River Secret Realm, most of the participants had already run over one hundred kilometers.

Such as Wang Bo from East Sea University, although not good at speed, had run nearly one hundred and fifty kilometers by then.

"Li Qi, Lin Qingxue, they should have run over two or three hundred kilometers."

"I'm quite far from them." Wang Bo thought: "However, my specialty is combat, no need to rush now."

Thinking this, he opened the wristband projection to take a look.

"What?"

"Jiang Ye?"

"Already nearly eight hundred kilometers?!" Wang Bo couldn't believe it: "How did he manage that?"

In these twenty minutes, aside from checking the overall coordinates five minutes after the race started, he hadn't cared anymore.

Even though he saw Jiang Ye leaving everyone in the dust at the start, he wasn't too concerned.

After all, the early lead didn't prove anything.

Little did he know that in just forty minutes.

Jiang Ye was already almost at the finish line?!

"This guy, doesn't he rest?" Wang Bo was shocked: "Could he have been running at top speed the whole time? Isn't he tired?"

Even he, as a powerhouse, had to take a short break after running over a hundred kilometers.

After all, it was a genuine step-by-step run.

Second Break powerhouses were human too and would feel fatigue!

But Jiang Ye? Was he a perpetual motion machine?

...

"Whoosh!"

In an eastern area of the secret realm, Jiang Ye's figure was like lightning, dashing forward at a speed of over five hundred meters per second.

He had maintained this speed for a whole half hour.

Fatigue?

Didn't feel it.

Jiang Ye had spent every night in the First and Second Layers of the Martial Arts Celestial Ladder, and his martial arts will was far stronger than those of the same level.

Competing in endurance? Jiang Ye had always excelled at it.

"Over two hundred kilometers left." Jiang Ye continued forward.

The speed did not reduce in the slightest!

...

"Jiang Ye is almost at the finish line!"

"While others have just run over a hundred kilometers, he's nearing the end?"

"Isn't he even pretending?" The audience was in an uproar.
