With the host’s words, many voices of agreement arose.

”That’s right, luck is important. Anyone who runs into that Sudden Possibility is bound to lose, right?”

”Luck, indeed. Among the top ten, I see a few who are lucky and haven’t encountered any real geniuses along the way. For example, that Behalf, who hasn’t met a worthy opponent, yet reached this level. If I didn’t know this pass battle doesn’t allow cheating, I’d almost suspect him of cheating.”

Hearing the audience’s comments, almost everyone on the same side as the Communication Power contestants displayed different expressions.

”Alas, didn’t expect that in the end, Lord Tang Tu was also brought down by luck, running into that Dong Ka. Instead, it was Lord Behalf who made it to the end.”

”He didn’t meet a single true strong one along the way. As the host said, luck is also a part of strength.”

”Forget it.” Tang Tu let out a long sigh, knowing this was his second time competing and there wouldn’t be a next. Having lost, he could only let go.

”That we, the Communication Power, have one person reaching the final step is already extremely thrilling. If Lord Behalf wins one more match, he can get the pass. Let’s all wish him luck.”

”Alright, let’s wish him luck. Besides, Lord Behalf’s strength is definitely not lacking. Unless he encounters Sudden Possibility and Dong Ka, his chances of winning are...”

As the dignitary speaking those words was about to finish, the participants of a top ten match just ended stepped down, and the host and referee announced the names of the next competitors.

”The next match is between the biggest dark horse of this tournament, Behalf, and the absolute king, Tufu! Contestants, please take the stage.”

”Uh...” The dignitary who just said Jia Yan shouldn’t meet Tufu and Dong Ka in order to win the pass suddenly stopped speaking, his eyes widening.

”Alas, it seems time does not favor us. This time, we of the Communication Power will stop here again.” At almost the moment of hearing Behalf’s opponent’s name, Tang Tu smiled bitterly and shook his head at the surrounding Communication Power dignitaries.

”Never mind. In this last round, that Sudden Possibility will definitely put on a show because this is his first step in rising in his hometown. In this situation, going onstage might not mean death, but humiliation is certain. Behalf doesn’t need to go onstage.”

Without finishing his words, a dignitary to the side already said, ”But he’s already up there.”

”Ah? Why so impulsive!”

Tang Tu indeed saw, as he was speaking, that Jia Yan had already moved, flying into the battle arena, and if he were to concede instantly, it would be too embarrassing. He was immediately helpless.

”It seems Behalf refuses to accept his fate. Never mind, let him see the true strength of the number one genius in our Star Zone, anyway this guy isn’t a genius of the Communication Power. Consider it as a punishment for looking down on us earlier.”

Tang Tu recalled Jia Yan’s mocking words before, and then let go, unwilling to transmit any more words of dissuasion.

Jia Yan was completely indifferent to the reactions of the Communication Power dignitaries. As he stepped onto the battlefield, he didn’t even glance at the dignitary before him, just feeling a bit annoyed.

”Didn’t expect to face an intermediate talent semi-permanent star level at the end when I had calculated to keep a top low-grade talent performance. Now what do I do?”

Jia Yan didn’t know how to deal with the current situation. After all, he didn’t want to become too famous, or else attracting Huo Qu’s attention would be a death trap.

But if he lost to this Sudden Possibility, he would lose the chance to get the pass.

”Do I just give up and wait three more years? It’d be better to fly slowly to the Genius Battlefield to rendezvous with Adisa.”

Jia Yan felt helpless.

But his hesitation, in the eyes of the intermediate talent genius before him, seemed like indecisiveness.

”Ha, you must be that Behalf from the Communication Power. I admire your talent. This time, it’s just bad luck. Next time, there might not be an intermediate talent genius like me, so step down.”

Sudden Possibility displayed an air of great magnanimity, speaking generously to Jia Yan.

”Wow, there were already guesses. Now that Sudden Possibility himself admits to being an intermediate talent genius, in our Star Zone, such a person only appears every few decades to participate in the pass grab. Didn’t expect there’s another one this time.”

”Turns out Sudden Possibility is an intermediate talent genius. No wonder he’s so terrifying. I’ve heard that almost every intermediate talent genius before has gone to the Genius Battlefield. Even among the stellar-level strong ones in our Starfield, intermediate talents occupy more than half.”

”He’s right. Although Behalf is a dark horse, facing an intermediate talent genius, there’s no room for retaliation. Admitting defeat isn’t shameful.”

Almost all beings were stunned at Sudden Possibility’s self-revealed talent.

To know about this in the ears of the high-level and geniuses of ordinary forces was already old news, but to the general public, it was like an earth-shattering revelation.

And now Sudden Possibility said this in the final battle to create a sensational effect. Then, with countless admiring eyes, he would leave this Star Zone and sprint toward a higher realm.

”Haha, Behalf, I do this for your good. Now step down.”

Sudden Possibility, like a merciful senior, unwilling to see a promising junior get hurt.

”Step down?”

Standing in front of Sudden Possibility, Jia Yan watched his performance and only after hearing the crowd’s exclamations did he faintly shake his head.

”Alright, you step down for your own good.”

Jia Yan figured it out. Although Tufu’s talent was intermediate, he wasn’t the best among them; he was rather ordinary. He had read the news in the Biochemical Star Region and knew that among a list of a thousand names, intermediates formed the majority. Some not-so-strong intermediate talents could even be eliminated.

If Jia Yan beat Tufu and positioned himself around 500th among the thousand talents, that shouldn’t attract Huo Qu’s attention, right?

Even though he wasn’t sure, Jia Yan really had no other choice. Waiting three more years to participate in another event or spending decades slowly flying to the Genius Battlefield were both suboptimal options.

So, he decided to fight.

”What did you say?” Tufu felt like he heard something unbelievable.

He imagined his opponent would accept the challenge, or concede out of frustration, but never expected that when he told his opponent to step down, it would be turned around on him, and this Behalf would boldly suggest he step down instead.

Are you the intermediate talent genius, or am I? Why is this Behalf so bold!?

Upon hearing Behalf’s words, not only was Tufu stunned, but so were the participants and spectators below the stage, who erupted in an uproar after a moment’s pause.

”What is Behalf saying? He’s actually asking Tufu to step down, does he even realize what he’s doing?”

”Tufu asked him to step down to protect him from injury and prevent him from losing spirit after this match, yet Behalf doesn’t appreciate it, and instead speaks to Tufu like this!”

”He’s insane, his brain must be malfunctioning. Did he not hear Tufu say just now that he’s an intermediate talent genius? Fighting an intermediate talent genius, if Behalf’s brain isn’t faulty, I’ll chop off my head for him to use as a chair!”

One by one, the spectators were in an uproar, pointing at and insulting Jia Yan as if he had a masochistic tendency.

Even the Communication Power members, who were also ridiculed and irritated, felt helpless. They initially wanted to make a name for themselves, and that happened, but the reputation wasn’t flattering—it was arrogant.

”I wish I could tell them Behalf isn’t one of us in the Communication Power, but do you think they’ll believe it?” A dignitary almost couldn’t lift his head from the shame.

”Forget it; nothing we say now will help. It’s embarrassing, but I think Behalf is just trying to humiliate us in the Communication Power,” Tang Tu lamented in frustration with no other options. He couldn’t possibly jump out now and say Behalf wasn’t one of their members at such a critical moment.

The commotion below was intense, but on the battle stage, the two sides were already in combat stance.

”Ha, since you want me to humiliate you, then get ready. I’ll count to three, and you’ll lose.”

Tufu said with a calm voice, exuding the presence of a strong one.

”Lord Tufu is truly magnanimous, actually announcing the timing of his attack.”

”What difference does it make if it’s announced? Behalf surely can’t withstand it.”

Amidst the admiration of the surrounding spectators and participants, Tufu seemed to relish it deeply. Then his gaze lifted slightly.

”Three!”

His muscles tensed instantly, gradually increasing his power.

”Two!”

A vague and terrifying aura emanated, with a hint of Environmental Control Power locked onto Jia Yan’s area.

Though he was magnanimous, Tufu knew his opponent was a sovereign-level strong one, and if he didn’t exert full effort, he might not defeat his enemy in one strike. Using even one or two extra moves beyond his claim to defeat his enemy in one blow would be unacceptable to him.

So he aimed for the kill in one strike.

Even if Behalf perished before him, it wouldn’t matter. He believed that with his talent, the Red Sky Martial Hall would always cover it up.

Finally, his aura reached its peak!

”One!” Tufu’s eyes gleamed brightly as he spoke the word, releasing an unparalleled aura that seemed to shake the heavens.

Simultaneously, his foot moved swiftly, delivering a thunderous blow towards Jia Yan’s area!

This blow was arguably the most terrifying strike since the start of this battle for supremacy.

The entire battle stage, locked by Environmental Control Power, trembled in space. With one strike, Brainwave Power rioted, confusing and injuring ordinary spectators close by instantaneously.

”Terrifying! Such a frightening strike, Behalf could very well die!”

”Refusing to listen to Lord Tufu, dying isn’t uncalled for!”

A shocked crowd marveled at Tufu’s strike, wondering if it still belonged to sovereign-level strength.
