383: Chapter 383 Is Brother Jiang Really Human?
Not only were the opponents below the stage scared out of their wits.
At this moment, the people from Magic City Martial Arts University standing on the high platform were also dumbfounded, completely stupefied!
They were closest to "Jiang You." Although Jiang You had deliberately avoided directing his pressure behind him, the aftermath—which felt like being on the edge of a volcanic crater, facing a colossal beast of the abyss—still made them shudder from the depths of their souls.
Xie Fuyao's hands trembled uncontrollably. He stared intently at Jiang You's back, his eyes filled with shock and bitterness:
"This... this power is pure to the absolute limit!"
"Jiang You, just how much strength have you been hiding?!"
"To think I actually believed that as long as I broke through again, I would have the power to fight you once more... What a pipe dream!"
Gou Fugui was so startled that he stumbled back two steps, grabbing onto Xiang Batian beside him. His gold-rimmed glasses slipped down to the bridge of his nose, but he didn't even bother to adjust them.
He sucked in a sharp breath, his voice trembling, "Holy crap, is... is Brother Jiang really human?"
Xiang Batian swallowed hard. His proud belief in "biomechanics" suffered a devastating blow at this moment. Looking at Jiang You's not-so-muscular back, his mind was filled with massive question marks.
Lu Xingye gritted his teeth, his single eye filled with resentment and fanaticism:
"Damn it! Have I really been left so far behind by you? As expected of the man chosen by the Abyss!"
"Despicable Jiang You! Don't you dare think you can shake me off!"
Meanwhile, the Tier 5 Great Demon Bai Lan, standing in the corner of the group, was clutching her fox tail tightly with both hands, her two fox ears pinned flat against her head in sheer terror, shivering uncontrollably.
"???"
Bai Lan's large eyes were filled with dread, her instincts as a demonic beast screaming in alarm: "Brother Jiang You's aura just now was so terrifying! I feel like he could eat me in a single bite!"
Just as everyone present, including his teammates, was shocked into questioning their very existence,
inside Jiang You's inner world.
[Right Hand] waved its fist arrogantly in the consciousness space, bursting into a hearty laugh, "Hahaha! Awesome! Those little brats are completely behaved now! Let's see who dares to shout down there anymore!"
[Kidneys] was also deeply satisfied, "Alright, Brother Brain, the posturing is done. Let's withdraw quickly. If someone actually comes up to fight for their life later, we'll have to waste energy fighting."
[Brain] pushed up its reflective glasses, hiding its contribution and fame, "Disperse. Give the body back to that Slacker Ruler."
"This show of dominance is enough to guarantee he lives his next days in peace and stability."
The command was issued.
The organs instantly severed their connection and went offline collectively.
Outside, on the high platform.
Jiang You's main consciousness, like someone who had just been fished out of the water, suddenly reclaimed control of his body.
"Ah—ha—"
The moment Jiang You came to his senses, he let out an earth-shattering yawn, even squeezing out a couple of tears of sleepiness from the corners of his eyes.
He rubbed his aching neck, and his eyes, which had been deep and terrifying, instantly reverted to his trademark dead-fish eyes.
The aura that made him look like a descending demon god vanished completely in the blink of an eye, and he reverted to his slumped, salted-fish state, looking as if he could fall asleep while standing.
On the surface, he casually stuffed his hands back into his pockets, looking like a half-asleep slacker.
But in reality, Jiang You's heart rate had surged to 280, and his mind was in absolute turmoil!
Although his main consciousness had been locked in a mental dark room just now, he had enjoyed a VIP front-row seat the entire time, watching everything that happened outside with absolute clarity!
"Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!"
Jiang You cursed three times in his mind, swallowing hard as his soul trembled with excitement.
"Is this Old Master possessing my body really this badass?"
He had originally thought that, aside from showing off and talking tough to the camera, this old guy would only seize his body to chug Erguotou during critical moments of a chaotic brawl, making him purely an abstract, mentally unstable remnant soul.
But the result?!
Just now, he hadn't even used a Supernatural Ability! He hadn't even lifted a hand!
Relying solely on the pure outward release of his vital energy and blood wind, he had actually forced those hundreds of Great Xia's top geniuses below the stage to kneel and submit?!
Even that Tier 5 musclehead and that hot-tempered fire-wielding woman couldn't hold out and collapsed!
"How is this an Old Master? This is clearly a gold-plated, incredibly thick thigh to cling onto!"
Jiang You was so excited he almost laughed aloud, his salted-fish logic completing a perfect loop at this moment.
"With such an absurd, max-level booster permanently residing in my body, why the hell should I even bother training in the future?!"
"Isn't this just carrying around an auto-farming cheat?"
"In the future, if I run into trouble, I'll just close my eyes, lie down on the spot, and let the Old Master log in and take over for me!"
"This is a guaranteed win!"
Having figured this out, Jiang You was completely at ease.
He blinked in a daze, his gaze sweeping across the area below the stage.
Looking at the geniuses of various schools who had been suppressed until their faces turned pale, staring up at him with horrified looks as if they had seen a ghost,
Jiang You didn't feel the slightest bit guilty. Instead, he relaxed his back with righteous confidence, slouching slightly and finding the most comfortable position for his hands in his pockets.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a powerhouse carry a game?"
Jiang You snorted righteously in his mind.
However, his dazed, lazy, and completely relaxed posture fell into the eyes of the crowd below, triggering a new wave of cognitive tsunami!
Chu Tiankuo's pupils contracted violently. Staring intently at Jiang You's dead-fish eyes, he sucked in a breath of cold air, "Hiss! Instantly suppressing all of his vital energy and blood! Not even a shred of killing intent is leaked!"
Helan Que was also pale as a sheet, "Returning to simplicity! This is true return to simplicity! He has already mastered his power to the point of doing whatever he pleases!"
In the eyes of these over-interpreting geniuses, Jiang You's current listlessness was not him spacing out at all, but a transcendent detachment that cared nothing for worldly fame and fortune!
It was the ultimate contempt of "I was just stretching my muscles casually, and now I'm going back to rest"!
At this moment, no one dared to look down on this young man on the high platform who looked like a street loafer.
President Xia Yun, standing to the side, looked at the geniuses from all walks of life who were completely subdued below, secretly tongue-tied.
Just how deep were this kid Jiang You's trump cards?
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit too dead, President Xia Yun, as the person in charge, quickly coughed twice and picked up the microphone to break the deadlock.
"Cough, cough!"
President Xia Yun's voice echoed over the square. He glanced at Jiang You, who had reverted to his salted-fish state, and took the opportunity to smooth things over:
"It seems Student Jiang You still cares quite a lot about everyone's opinions."
"Just now, he used the most direct method to prove to everyone the unshakable and profound foundation of Magic City Martial Arts University!"
President Xia Yun's gaze swept across the crowd, and his voice suddenly rose, carrying a decisive authority:
"Now, does anyone else have any objections to Magic City Martial Arts University taking the championship?"
