173: Chapter 173 I Don't Need Eyes Anymore
"It's my turn."
Wang Pingan's light voice sounded on the silent arena.
But in this moment, the voice falling into Andre's ears was like a death knell from the Grim Reaper!
His body shuddered violently!
His sapphire-pure eyes were instantly filled with endless fear!
He wanted to run!
He wanted to concede!
He wanted to use every method to stay away from the teenager who, in his eyes, had completely transformed into a "demon"!
But it was too late!
The moment the thought arose,
Wang Pingan's figure disappeared from his sight without warning.
Not fast!
But truly as if crossing space, vanishing into thin air!
Starfall Flowing Light Body!
When he reappeared,
he had silently arrived behind Andre.
A hand—a hand that looked fair and slender, yet contained enough power to shake the heavens—
gently rested on his shoulder, which was trembling violently from fear.
"Don't be nervous."
A lazy, sleepy voice sounded softly in his ear.
"We're just 'sparring'."
"No one is going to die."
"..."
Andre's body froze instantly.
He felt his heart stop beating.
He could clearly feel a force coming from that hand that made it impossible for him to even raise a thought of resistance!
He did not doubt that if the other party wanted to, he could crush him into dust at any moment, like pinching an ant to death!
"I... I..."
Andre's lips trembled. He wanted to say "I concede."
But his last shred of pride as a top genius made it impossible for him to say those three humiliating words.
"Sigh."
Wang Pingan looked at his conflicted expression, both afraid of death and caring about face, and sighed softly again.
"Forget it."
"Since you look quite handsome, I'll spare your face today."
After speaking,
the hand resting on Andre's shoulder gave a gentle push.
A seemingly soft but irresistible force instantly spread through Andre's entire body.
Andre's body flew backward uncontrollably.
He drew a "graceful" parabola in the air,
and finally landed with a "thump" outside the arena on the hard ground.
Although he wasn't injured,
the humiliation of being thrown off the stage like trash in front of tens of billions of viewers across the Federation felt worse than being killed!
"First match, Wang Pingan wins!"
The referee instructor's voice, filled with complex emotions, echoed in the silent arena,
announcing the final result of this match that was full of absurdity and shock from start to finish.
...
Wang Pingan's "One Finger Breaks Ten Thousand Laws" shocked the entire Federation once again.
If anyone previously thought he only had powerful physical strength or strange spirit, now, everyone understood a fact.
This man was truly powerful from every angle without any blind spots!
His power had completely exceeded everyone's understanding!
He was an out-and-out BUG-level existence!
In the following matches,
no one dared to have the slightest thought of challenging him.
Every opponent who drew him would choose to actively concede the second before the match started.
Are you kidding?
Even Andre, a fierce man who possessed the "Purification" talent and was specifically designed to restrain various flashy energy attacks, was played in the palm of his hand with a single finger.
If they went up, wouldn't that be purely looking for abuse?
Rather than being humiliated in unimaginable ways on the arena, it was better to honestly concede and keep a little dignity.
Thus,
in the next few rounds, an extremely strange scene appeared in the entire arena.
Whenever it was Wang Pingan's match,
his opponent would raise their hands at the first moment and shout "I concede."
Then, under the gaze of Wang Pingan, who was full of "regret" and "boredom," they would walk off the arena in a dejected manner.
This left the audience, who had bought expensive tickets specifically to witness the demeanor of the "Great Demon King," stunned and greatly disappointed.
"Damn it! Refund! Refund!"
"What the hell, what's there to fight? I've already taken off my pants, and this is what you show me?"
"Too boring! I thought I'd see a world-shaking battle! In the end, it's all one-round trips!"
Wang Pingan, in a way that no one expected, "lay down to win" and fought his way into the final four.
...
Semifinals.
Wang Pingan's opponent was the number two figure from the mysterious "Guanghan Palace Academy," which only recruited female spirit geniuses.
Moonlight Yao.
When the draw results came out,
the entire arena boiled over again!
"Damn! It's finally here! Finally someone who isn't afraid of death!"
"Fairy Moonlight Yao! She is the strongest spirit master of Guanghan Palace Academy, apart from the Saintess Moon Reading who has become a 'vegetable'!"
"That's right! I heard her spirit cultivation has reached the limit of Fifth Rank Peak! And she has mastered a extremely powerful ancient illusion technique, 'Moon Shadow Thousand Illusions'!"
"Now there's a good show to watch! Although Wang Pingan is strong, he only bullied Saintess Moon Reading with illusions before. This time, facing Moonlight Yao, who is also an illusion master, his little tricks will probably fail!"
The audience seats were buzzing with discussion.
Everyone's face was filled with anticipation.
They all wanted to see what kind of sparks would fly when two top monsters, both skilled in illusions, collided!
On the arena,
Moonlight Yao was dressed in white, as white as snow.
Her beautiful face, covered by a veil, showed no expression.
But her eyes, bright as autumn water, were filled with unprecedented solemnity and fighting spirit!
She knew that the monster she was facing today was terrifying!
"Xuanyuan University, Wang Pingan."
Moonlight Yao's voice was cold and pleasant, like a clear spring in a mountain stream.
"Guanghan Palace Academy, Moonlight Yao."
"Please advise."
She didn't say any nonsense like the people before.
The moment the referee instructor announced the start of the match,
she moved.
Hum—!
A formless but vast spirit, full of cold and psychedelic aura, erupted from her body!
"Moon Shadow Thousand Illusions"!
Activate!
At that moment,
in Wang Pingan's perception,
the whole world changed.
The arena in front of him disappeared.
The roaring crowd around him also disappeared.
Replaced by a boundless, silver moonlit night full of desolation and loneliness.
A huge, bright moon emitting cold light hung high in the pitch-black night sky.
Countless beautiful fairies in white, looking exactly like Moonlight Yao, danced under that moon.
Their dance steps were graceful and moving.
Their eyes were full of temptation.
As if they wanted to suck a person's soul in completely.
However,
in this seemingly beautiful, poetic illusion,
the deadliest killing intent was hidden!
Every dancing figure was a sharp sword light condensed from the purest spirit!
Every ray of cold moonlight falling from that moon was a cold killing intent capable of freezing the soul!
This was "Moon Shadow Thousand Illusions"!
A top-tier illusion kill array that perfectly fused "beauty" and "killing"!
However,
facing this beautiful death trap that would make any Fifth Rank powerhouse sink into despair,
Wang Pingan just yawned lazily.
Then, with a look of "hatred for iron not becoming steel," like looking at his own useless silly daughter, he looked at Moonlight Yao, who was standing in the center of the illusion with a cold face as if she had already won, and shook his head.
"Sigh."
"You say you don't play with anything else."
"Why do you have to show off in front of me, the 'Grandmaster'?"
"Are you even worthy of playing illusions?"
After speaking,
a flash of "sympathetic" and "pitying" demon-like purple light flashed in his pitch-black eyes.
"Now."
"Let me show you."
"What is called real... illusion."
The moment the words fell,
Boom—!!!
Moonlight Yao's world of "Moon Shadow Thousand Illusions," full of desolation and loneliness, shattered without warning!
