110: Chapter 110 Why fight one-on-one when you can gang up on others?

Previously, he had been struggling with a lack of sufficient silicon to sustain the Mushroom Person. However, after the Ant-Fist Shrimp-Man brought back the "Corrosive Silicon Fungus" from the wasteland world, this problem was easily solved.

Not only that, but when the Ant-Fist Shrimp-Man returned, it was covered in various types of fungi. According to it, these fungi all looked similar, and it genuinely couldn't tell them apart, so it just brought them all back.

Gu Han was amused on the spot, immediately gave it a thumbs up, and exceptionally bestowed upon it the name "Wild King".

It seems the Enlightenment effect is indeed quite good; it even knows how to cover all bases when doing things.

With the addition of the Corrosive Silicon Fungus, the results were immediate. This type of fungus could crazily devour silicon elements in the environment for its own use, perfectly compensating for the drawback of being unable to recover the silicon shells after they shattered.

Additionally, among that pile of unknown mycelium, Gu Han found a type of flesh-devouring "Flesh-eating Fungus".

This thing grew extremely fast and could also obtain nutrients by devouring flesh to fuel its growth and division.

Gu Han immediately combined the Flesh-eating Fungus, Corrosive Silicon Fungus, Diatom, and Mushroom Person together.

After failing hundreds of times, he finally created a brand-new believer—the Green-skinned Mushroom Person.

Let them see what a genius is.

Before long, the individual competitions for all four grades of the War God Professional League had concluded. Next up was the highlight of the entire league—the Championship Challenge Match.

The rules were simple and brutal. Contestants from all four grades could challenge each other. Continuing the tradition of previous years, in order to balance combat power, lower-grade students challenging higher-grade students could bring teammates to outnumber their opponents.

The competition used a king-of-the-hill format; one could enter the arena at any time. As long as one stood on the stage for ten seconds without anyone daring to challenge, they would be declared the winner; otherwise, they had to keep fighting.

Usually, in such competitions, everyone just went through the motions.

After all, no one wanted to exhaust all their cultivated believers just for a 50 million prize. Losing the match and also damaging the foundation of their Divine Kingdom was not a profitable trade.

But this year was different.

A reward of 10,000 square kilometers of Divine Source—this was a shockingly generous offer that immediately made all the contestants' eyes turn red with greed.

Gu Han sat in the freshman zone's contestant seating, legs crossed, as steady as an old dog. Even though he had the ability to suppress everyone, he didn't plan on going up first.

In this kind of king-of-the-hill match, it was better to wait until those self-proclaimed geniuses had exhausted their trump cards before going up to finish things off. There was no need to be the flashy one who stood tall from the start.

Several hours passed, and the contestants on the stage were replaced one after another.

Eventually, Tang Wuying secured his place on the stage.

The ground beneath his feet was a mess. His Goblin army was indeed fierce. Those cross-bred Goblins were like tireless meat grinders, knocking over several favorites to win from the third and fourth years.

Seven consecutive wins.

Tang Wuying stood alone at the top, his arrogance reaching its peak.

VIP seating area.

The smile on the face of Patriarch Tang Ritian, head of the Tang Family, could not be suppressed.

"It seems this match is coming to an end. That child Wuying has certainly not disgraced our Tang Family."

Tang Shan, sitting beside him, looked proud: "The Patriarch is right. Wuying has transformed like a dragon meeting water this time; looking across all of Jiangcheng, he is in a league of his own. It's just a pity that this batch of students is too poor; there isn't even one who can fight. If Wuying could fight ten matches and get ten consecutive wins, our Tang Family's reputation would certainly rise to a new level."

Tang Ritian waved his hand and laughed: "Wuying deserves the credit for securing the investment from Duhai Biotechnology Co., Ltd. this time. Our Tang Family can finally be considered to have connected with the Beijing circle."

The commentator in the venue shouted into the microphone: "Countdown! Eight! Seven! Six! Is there anyone else who wants to challenge contestant Tang Wuying? If not, this year's champion..."

The entire venue was silent; no one wanted to go up and invite trouble.

Just when everyone thought it was a done deal.

"I want to challenge him."

Gu Han stood up and walked toward the stage.

The entire venue was silent for a moment, then erupted into a thunderous uproar of discussion.

"Is this kid crazy? Isn't he only a Level 2 Divine Lord?"

"His Ant-men are suspended; is he going to fight Tang Wuying's Goblin army with just that flower? Is he courting death?"

"Does he even understand the weight of a Level 4 Goblin!"

Gu Han walked up the steps onto the stage.

The referee announced as usual: "Gu Han, you are a freshman. Challenging Tang Wuying, who is a sophomore, counts as a lower grade challenging a higher grade. According to the rules, you may choose to bring one teammate onto the stage to fight together."

Gu Han raised an eyebrow. Oh? Why fight alone when you can gang up? Although he was enough to crush them on his own, calling for a helper would make him appear more normal.

He quickly calculated in his mind. Actually, the person he wanted to choose most was Teacher Qin Lin; he had long wanted to try out her [Help Me Up] skill. Unfortunately, teachers cannot enter the arena to fight.

Gu Han turned his head, his gaze sweeping over the contestant seating, and finally landed on Chu Yue, who was dazed on the bench.

He raised a hand and pointed: "I choose my captain, Chu Yue."

Chu Yue, who was named, shuddered violently.

She pointed back at her own nose, her eyes wide as copper bells, her face full of disbelief.

"Me? No! Me?!" Chu Yue roared crazily in her heart, "The opponent is a Level 4 Divine Lord!"

Gu Han looked at her expression as if she had seen a ghost and shouted directly: "You don't need to deploy any believers. When the fight starts, you just need to help me cast the [Ice Bloodline] skill on my believer."

Tens of thousands of eyes in the venue stared over in unison.

Chu Yue had thin skin. Being stared at by the audience like this, since she didn't need to deploy believers, she really felt embarrassed to refuse in public.

If I go, I go. Even if I lose, I can still say I have challenged a Level 4 Divine Lord!

Chu Yue straightened her skirt, tightened her little face, puffed out her chest, and bit the bullet as she walked onto the stage.

She entered the combat pod behind Gu Han, her heart pounding, feeling somewhat dazed.

Opposite them, Tang Wuying looked at the two of them and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Ever since his Goblins awakened their extraordinary traits, watching his believers' strength soar every day, his self-confidence had inflated to the extreme. This power had caused him to lose his previous composure and become even more arrogant.

"A Level 2 Divine Lord, paired with another Level 2 Divine Lord, wants to challenge me?" Tang Wuying shook his head, his face full of mockery, "Do you think two plus two equals four? Gu Han, you are too ridiculous."

Little did he know, Gu Han found him equally ridiculous in his heart.

This was meant to be a crushing match from the start. He called Chu Yue purely to disgust the opponent, and by the way, to hide his clumsiness and make himself appear less like a monster.

"Like to laugh? I'll let you laugh all you want." Gu Han raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

The next second, the space behind him rippled violently.

A massive crack in the Divine Kingdom burst open. From the depths of the dark passage, a group of roars erupted, shaking the heavens.

The entire audience almost held their breath.

This Gu Han has other believers?
