**Chapter 1500: Adults Must Take Responsibility for Their Choices**
More and more people were giving up, feeling there was no need to compete anymore. The rankings seemed frozen, with many people's scores no longer changing.
Lin Moyu's actions this time had struck almost everyone.
They were all geniuses, especially those from the War God Hall and the Divine City, who were usually so arrogant.
But this time, Lin Moyu trampled on their arrogance, rubbing it into the ground, creating sparks and drawing fresh blood, disfiguring them completely.
He didn't kill them physically, but rather crushed their spirits.
The Sacred Lord Hao and the others watched from start to finish without stopping Lin Moyu.
If someone's Dao heart collapsed from this, then it was their own doing, completely unworthy of being called a genius.
The highest achievement such people could reach was merely a God Sovereign.
Did the human race lack God Sovereigns?
The human race had always sought supreme experts, and only those in the Other Shore realm qualified as such.
So losing some geniuses didn't really matter.
From ordinary people all the way until the Other Shore realm, it was a process of sifting through the waves.
On the leaderboard, apart from Lin Moyu's score which was still rising at an astonishing rate, only Lin Mohan's score was changing.
The scores of the others remained almost completely stagnant for half a day.
Until half a day later, someone's score finally changed significantly.
Chu Xiong's score suddenly increased by 2,000.
He had killed a leader-level beast ranked 513 and was also lucky enough to obtain a white jade token.
Chu Xiong had a stalk of grass in his mouth and held a thick battle blade in his right hand.
The battle blade was only a True God realm magic treasure, but in Chu Xiong's hands, it was no weaker than a God Sovereign realm magic treasure.
The huge, leader-level beast lay beside Chu Xiong.
Chu Xiong didn't even look at it, stepping over it and continuing forward.
As he walked, he muttered to himself, "No matter how high the brat's score is, it has nothing to do with me."
"There are many powerful people in this world. Does that mean I can't live anymore?"
"Did all the people who fought alongside the War God commit suicide?"
His words seemed like self-consolation, but they also made sense.
Chu Xiong was rough on the outside but meticulous on the inside, with a firm Dao heart. He was the first to recover.
After Chu Xiong, Xu Jianxing's score also began to increase.
Xu Jianxing held a long bow and shot down an ordinary giant beast. "Cultivation is not about competing with others but competing with oneself."
"As long as I don't admit defeat, no one can defeat me!"
The two of them walked one after the other, not far apart.
Then Zhuang Bi joined their ranks.
They had one thing in common – they no longer regarded Lin Moyu and Lin Mohan as competitors but saw themselves as their own competitors.
As long as they surpassed themselves, that was enough.
Their actions were like a timely rain, pouring down on everyone's heads.
Some people awoke as if from a dream, while others had an epiphany.
More and more people began to take action, recovering from the blow one by one.
Watching the changes on the leaderboard, Lin Moyu could already guess the general process.
"They're all quite smart. With just a little prompting, they can figure it out."
"Flowers in the greenhouse will eventually have to face the wind and sun."
He sounded like an experienced elder, even though he was the youngest among them, speaking words that didn't match his age.
Lin Moyu hadn't gone all out. The Skeleton God Warriors he sent out avoided the paths chosen by others. The giant beasts they killed were in places no one had chosen.
The Ring Mountain Continent was vast, and the hundred or so people scattered within were not even as significant as ants.
There were plenty of giant beasts for Lin Moyu to kill.
After less than a day's pause, the competition resumed, with many geniuses who had recovered from the blow starting a new round of competition.
But in this round, their opponents had become themselves.
Dongfang Ze also recovered from the blow. His tone was low, "Lin Moyu, although I lost to you in this task, I will definitely defeat you in the Four Star Domain Competition."
"Not just the Four Star Domain Competition, even when you enter the Divine City, I will continue to win."
Wei Bowen looked at the score that was already far out of reach. "I'm from the War God Hall. How could I lose to you? We are the strongest. When I return to the War God Hall and receive the War God's inheritance, I will definitely surpass you and reach a level you can never attain!"
The Sacred Lord Hao watched this scene with satisfaction. "These little fellows aren't bad. There are a few potential disciples among them."
Madam Yu said, "Chu Xiong has the hope of stepping into the Other Shore."
Lin Lao said, "The one called Xu Jianxing is also not bad. If I'm not mistaken, he should be from the Xu family of the Divine City."
Then he sighed, "It's a pity about Dongfang Ze."
The Sacred Lord Hao spoke with a hint of disdain, "There's nothing to pity. Everyone must take responsibility for their choices. He ruined his own future, and no one can save him."
In order to achieve outstanding results in the Four Star Domain Competition, Dongfang Ze relied on his talent and forcibly accepted only half of the baptism, not stepping into the God Sovereign realm.
Although most of the problems could be remedied later, the imperfect seed had already been planted.
Becoming a God Sovereign was naturally not a problem, but wanting to step into the Other Shore was impossible in this life.
From the Sacred Lord Hao's perspective, there was no need to sympathize with such people, let alone pity them.
One chooses one's own path and must bear the consequences, no matter what they are.
Time flew by, and after a full year, the preliminaries of the Four Star Domain Competition finally ended.
The real finals would be held a month later, and all the contestants would be teleported there before the finals began.
Each of the four major star domains had only a hundred people qualified to participate in the finals.
Adding the seed contestants chosen by the four Domain Lords, the people from the War God Hall, and those from the Divine City, there were a total of 500 contestants in the finals.
Among them, the seed contestants, the War God Hall, and the Divine City occupied the rankings but did not take up the qualifications to enter the Divine City.
So the final hundred places to enter the Divine City would be produced from the 400 contestants who emerged from the preliminaries. In this way, the enmity of the preliminary contestants towards the seed contestants would be greatly reduced. After all, one of the most important rewards of the Four Star Domain Competition was the qualification to enter the Divine City. If you didn't take away their qualifications, they wouldn't care about you.
In the history of previous years, the seed contestants were generally stronger than the preliminary contestants, and their rankings were also higher.
But there were also occasional accidents, where seed contestants failed.
For example, their laws were countered, or their magic treasures were countered, etc.
Some seed contestants lacked combat experience despite their great strength, so they could also be defeated.
This happened more often among the contestants from the Divine City and the War God Hall.
The Four Star Domain Competition was a grand event for the human race, and almost everyone began to look forward to the exciting competition a month later.
Many races on good terms with the human race also began to set out.
They came to the human race as guests to participate in this grand event.
There were also many races with ordinary relations with the human race who would come to attend the event, each with their own motives. But since they were not enemy races, the human race generally would not refuse them.
As for the enemy races, they would try various ways to obtain intelligence about the competition.
Especially the geniuses who emerged from the competition would become their targets for assassination.
Within the Ring Mountain Continent, Lin Moyu reached the end of his path.
Before him were towering mountains that pierced the sky.
It wasn't just one high mountain but a continuous mountain range.
He had seen this mountain range from outside the Ring Mountain Continent before. It formed a circle, embracing the entire continent, hence the name Ring Mountain Continent.
To leave the continent, he had to cross over it.
Here, Lin Moyu finally saw the leader-level giant beasts.
