965: Chapter 965 Overwhelming, Despair-Inducing Strength

Su Yuan did not make a move when Chu Duanyang finished speaking; he was waiting for Chen Xianzhou and Lord Zhang to act.

Taking advantage of this extremely brief window, Xu Zhan, Luo Yixian, and the other twenty people from Hui Gu Star quickly hid in a corner of the super-large Arena Stage, remaining completely motionless.

The people from the other planets were highly puzzled by the actions of Hui Gu Star's group, wondering what on earth they were doing.

The spectators were also filled with confusion, unable to understand the meaning behind Hui Gu Star's move.

However, they found out in the very next instant.

"Power of Immediate Self," release!

In an instant, the long-absent "Power of Immediate Self" erupted with a bang!

An invisible ripple rippled outward from Su Yuan. Everyone touched by this ripple stiffened and collapsed instantly.

Whether it was Shangguan Tianzong of the World Seven-Break, Shangguan Tianye of the World Eight-Break, or Xie Haiyuan of the World Nine-Break—

Under the suppression of this immense terror, they all collapsed to the ground, unable to move even a fraction of an inch, utterly crushed by the despairing force of the "Power of Immediate Self."

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Aside from the forty people from the Shenyuan Holy Land and Hui Gu Star, all one hundred and sixty people from the other eight planets fell, completely losing their ability to fight.

As a World Nine-Break cultivator, Xie Haiyuan had instinctively wanted to resist the moment the "Power of Immediate Self" enveloped him.

But his intuition told him that the consequence of resistance would be absolute annihilation, with his body and mind vanishing from this world.

Once this thought arose, Xie Haiyuan did not dare to resist at all, allowing the force of the "Power of Immediate Self" to overwhelm him.

At this moment, Xie Haiyuan truly realized just how terrifying Saint Yuan's strength was.

Before Saint Yuan, a World Nine-Break was like an ant trying to shake a giant tree—completely incapable of budging him.

At this time, the nineteen people from the five major forces of Huiqiong Star, as well as the twenty people from Hui Gu Star, all stared at the scene in dumbfounded shock.

Celestial Venerable, Xiao Tianyi, Su Jingnian, Vice Palace Master Xie Xiuyue, and the other World Realm combatants from Huiqiong Star's various forces shook to their very souls, deeply shaken by the highly impactful scene before them.

One hundred and sixty World Realm combatants were insta-defeated just like that?

Effortlessly. These people hadn't even sensed a trace of any terrifying aura before Xie Haiyuan, Shangguan Tianye, and the others were defeated, completely defenseless.

Xu Zhan, Luo Yixian, and the members of the Jiang Family and Murong Family all stood stiffly. Saint Yuan had so easily dealt with over a hundred World Realm combatants.

Was this the strength of Saint Yuan, who possessed Saint-level combat power?

Huh?

No, wait!

Everyone looked at the only person still standing among the one hundred and sixty.

To be precise, Su Yuan had only insta-defeated one hundred and fifty-nine people; the remaining one was standing perfectly fine.

Shangguan Tianzong stared at Su Yuan in utter bewilderment, then patted his own body in confusion. How was he completely unharmed?

In just an instant, Shangguan Tianzong understood why Su Yuan had spared him.

It must be because he had gone to Hui Gu Star to help Su Yuan back then, which was why Su Yuan had deliberately spared him.

The point gap between Liuyun Planet and Minghai Planet was not large to begin with. Moreover, staying on the stage for another second yielded fifty thousand points. Even though Liuyun Planet only had Shangguan Tianzong left, his points would be enough to surpass Minghai Planet and reclaim second place.

After Su Yuan insta-defeated Xie Haiyuan and the other one hundred and fifty-nine people, Chu Duanyang silently moved those who had lost their combat ability off the super-large Arena Stage, returning them to their respective spectator stands.

Thus, forty-one people remained on the super-large Arena Stage.

The total Planet Ranking Battle points of the three planets—Huiqiong Star, Hui Gu Star, and Liuyun Planet—surged rapidly, and their individual points skyrocketed along with them.

"Sun Venerable, how many points do I get for a one-hundred-and-fifty-nine-match win streak?"

Having dealt with Xie Haiyuan and the others, Su Yuan looked at Chu Duanyang and asked calmly.

Chu Duanyang was momentarily speechless, not knowing how to answer Su Yuan's question.

At this point, there was no longer any meaning in fussing over win-streak points. They could directly announce Saint Yuan as the first place in individual total points, and Huiqiong Star as the first place in total planet points.

"One... one billion, I suppose."

Chu Duanyang casually tossed out a huge number.

Instantly, on the individual total points leaderboard, Su Yuan's points increased by one billion, making him the absolute, overwhelming first place.

At the same time, Huiqiong Star's total planet points also increased by one billion, widening a chasm-like gap between them and Liuyun Planet, which had climbed to second.

On the other side, the people of Hui Gu Star, who were still in the corner, stared at the two leaderboards with faces full of excitement.

All twenty people from Hui Gu Star were still present, gaining one million points per second. Their planet's ranking was advancing at an unbelievable speed.

The people from the other planets who had returned to the spectator stands slowly regained consciousness under the treatment of Chen Xianzhou and Lord Zhang.

The injuries they sustained were not severe; Su Yuan had only temporarily incapacitated them, and they would recover quickly.

This was only because Su Yuan had held back. The "Power of Immediate Self" was not so weak; it was capable of instantly killing anyone with strength lower than his own.

In the spectator stands of Su'an Planet, most of the people from the five major forces stared at the total planet points ranking with bloodshot eyes. They could only watch helplessly as Hui Gu Star surpassed them.

It was the same on the spectator stands of Wenlan Planet; they were forced to witness Hui Gu Star's points skyrocket continuously.

Su Yuan did not make any further moves after releasing the "Power of Immediate Self"; he was pondering a question.

Was it better to let Liuyun Planet maintain second place, or to let Hui Gu Star charge directly to second, pushing Liuyun Planet down to third?

"Little Su, it's not suitable for our Hui Gu Star to be ranked too high. Fifth or sixth place is fine."

"Any higher, and our planet's ranking won't match our overall strength. That wouldn't be good."

"We'll be very satisfied if we can reach fifth or sixth."

Xu Zhan looked in Su Yuan's direction and transmitted his voice to him.

"Let's go for third."

Su Yuan pondered for a moment and replied via voice transmission.

Since Elder Xu said so, he would listen to him.

However, fifth or sixth was a bit too low. Third was just right, and it would drag Minghai Planet, which was originally third, down to fourth.

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Zhan ultimately agreed with Su Yuan's view. Third it would be.

Meanwhile, in the spectator stands of Minghai Planet, Xie Chenhao, Xie Haiyuan, and the others watched the total planet points ranking with extreme nervousness.

They prayed continuously in their hearts, hoping they wouldn't drop from third place.

But looking at Hui Gu Star's rate of increase, it seemed as if they were heading straight for Minghai Planet.

Surely their Minghai Planet wouldn't drop to fourth, right?

Before long, everyone in the five spectator stands of Minghai Planet fell into despair.

Their overall points were easily surpassed by Hui Gu Star, and they fell directly to fourth.

Everyone slumped in their seats with their heads hanging, finding it difficult to even breathe, their spirits thoroughly dampened.

Xie Chenhao felt both helpless and despairing. In this session of the Planet Ranking Battle, not only did they fail to reach second, they couldn't even keep third.

But who could they blame?

Blame Saint Yuan?

They would have to be tired of living to do that.

The man was comparable to a Saint at just twenty years old. Meeting him in this Planet Ranking Battle, they could only curse their bad luck.

Su Yuan stared straight at the total planet points ranking. Just as Hui Gu Star was about to surpass Liuyun Planet, he gently pushed the twenty people of Hui Gu Star off the super-large Arena Stage with a thought.

At this point, twenty-one people remained on the field.

The twenty people from the Shenyuan Holy Land, and Shangguan Tianzong.

Shangguan Tianzong seeing this, smiled awkwardly and left the super-large Arena Stage of his own accord.

At this point, only the twenty World Realm combatants from the Shenyuan Holy Land remained on the entire super-large Arena Stage.

Xiao Tianyi looked at the total planet points ranking and chuckled softly.

"Our Huiqiong Star is number one!"
