155: Chapter 154 Five Hundred Thousand Spiritual Power! What kind of monster is this?!

Three simple words, and the voice wasn't even very loud.

Yet, as they fell into everyone's ears, it felt like three heavy bombs exploding in succession.

The entire arena fell back into dead silence.

No one spoke, and no one reacted immediately.

At the very beginning, most people couldn't even grasp what this number actually meant.

A full two seconds passed before the youth holding the silver spear turned his head with difficulty. His throat bobbed, his voice sounding as if it had been forcibly choked.

"How... how much did you just say?"

"Five hundred thousand points."

Han Ce repeated, enunciating each word clearly.

This time, he didn't offer any further explanation. Instead, he directly raised his hand and projected the data detected by the [All-Knowing Eye] into mid-air.

Hum—

Accompanied by a slight energy fluctuation, a silver light screen over ten meters long and wide slowly unfolded above the arena.

Inside the massive light screen, there were no complex attributes or any other superfluous information.

On it was only a line of glaring, crimson numbers.

[Mental Power: 500000]

The moment they saw that number, the entire venue fell completely silent.

On the commentary platform, Chief Commentator Lu Ming stared fixedly at the projection in mid-air, his right hand gripping the microphone trembling uncontrollably.

He had hosted countless professional matches and seen innumerable talented young prodigies.

Yet, this was the first time he had ever seen a Mental Power value of 500,000 points in a young contestant.

"Fi... Five hundred thousand?"

Chief Commentator Lu Ming's voice transmitted throughout the entire arena via the amplification equipment.

"According to the Dragon Kingdom's current professional attribute standards, the single-attribute limit for a Tier 5 professional is 125,000 points!"

As he said this, Chief Commentator Lu Ming suddenly raised his voice.

"500,000 points of Mental Power means that contestant Qin Ye's Mental Power has already reached exactly four times the theoretical limit of a Tier 5!"

Boom!

After a brief silence, the audience Stands finally erupted.

Countless spectators suddenly stood up, staring in disbelief at that line of numbers in mid-air.

"500,000? Did I read that wrong?!"

"My Tier 5 mentor only has 86,000 Mental Power, how is Qin Ye nearly six times his?!"

"Isn't she a Tier 4 professional? No, wait, isn't the Stand Card she's using right now only Tier 2?"

"A Tier 2 Magic Card and 500,000 Mental Power—how on earth did these two things end up in the same person?"

"Is the detection card broken? This defies all logic!"

"Broken, my ass! That's Han Ce's [All-Knowing Eye], a Tier 5 SS-grade detection card! Plus, it uses the official detection system certified by the Professional League; even Tier 8 powerhouses have been tested by it, and it has never had an issue!"

"If the test results are true, then what kind of monster is Qin Ye exactly?"

"No wonder Fang Jingzhe couldn't block her! 500,000 Mental Power—what could possibly block that?"

As the news spread, more and more people began flooding into the live stream.

The number of online viewers in the top right corner of the broadcast screen was skyrocketing at a nearly uncontrollable speed.

900 million!

930 million!

970 million!

1 billion!

The moment the number of online viewers broke 1 billion, the live streaming platform's backend servers popped up seven consecutive red warnings.

The maintenance staff had just finished a round of emergency capacity expansion and hadn't even had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief before a new peak in traffic crashed through the server limits again.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the VIP area also changed.

War Emperor Wei Potian shifted his gaze away from the projected light screen in mid-air and then slowly turned his head to look in the direction where Su Bai was located.

Wei Tianlong, standing to the side, even took two steps forward directly.

"500,000?!"

His voice was already booming, and at this moment, it made the teacups on the table vibrate slightly.

"How on earth did that kid Su Bai manage to do that? A Tier 2 card can actually boost the user's Mental Power to 500,000?"

Wei Tianlong widened his eyes and couldn't help but say:

"Don't tell me he used a Dragon Vein as ink to draw this card?"

"No."

War Emperor Wei Potian spoke up suddenly.

He was still staring at the detection data in mid-air, but his gaze became increasingly grave.

"It wasn't this card that boosted Qin Ye's Mental Power to 500,000."

Wei Tianlong was stunned upon hearing this and immediately turned his head.

"What do you mean?"

War Emperor Wei Potian was silent for a moment before saying, enunciating each word:

"Qin Ye already possessed 500,000 points of Mental Power."

"That Stand Card simply gave her the method to utilize this 500,000 points of Mental Power."

As his voice fell, several grandmaster-level figures nearby turned their heads simultaneously.

The Purple-Robed Chief among them even gripped the jade tablet in his hand tightly.

Because they all knew very well that this conclusion from War Emperor Wei Potian was far more terrifying than "a Tier 2 card boosting Mental Power to 500,000."

Ordinary warriors are not without Mental Power.

In fact, as long as one is a professional, they definitely possess Mental Power.

It's just that ordinary warriors cannot efficiently convert Mental Power into magic like mages, nor can they directly use Mental Power to strengthen their physical bodies.

Therefore, for the vast majority of warriors, no matter how high their Mental Power is, it only grants them sharper perception, a stronger will, and faster battlefield reactions.

Beyond that, it is difficult for it to produce a decisive increase in direct combat power.

However, Stands are different.

A Stand itself is the manifestation of Mental Power!

In this brand-new Stand System created by Su Bai, Mental Power, which was originally hidden deep within the soul and could only function passively, is no longer an abstract attribute.

It has been truly molded into a tangible entity.

It can become limbs, it can turn into fists, and it can also transform into the most direct and purest of weapons!

"500,000 points of Mental Power..."

The Purple-Robed Chief stared fixedly at the Stand behind Qin Ye, muttering under his breath.

"So, that punch she just threw wasn't the output of a Tier 2 card itself at all."

"It was 500,000 points of Mental Power, after being converted through the Stand System, all condensed onto a single fist in an instant!"

Hearing this, the expression on Wei Tianlong's face finally changed.

Only at this moment did he fully understand why Fang Jingzhe, without any ability to resist, was sent flying, sword and all.

That wasn't just a crushing defeat in terms of speed.

Nor was it a suppression caused purely by brute force.

It was 500,000 points of Mental Power, transformed through the Stand System, directly becoming the purest form of speed and power!

In other words, Qin Ye never relied on a Tier 2 Magic Card to challenge those Tier 3, Tier 4, or even Tier 5 prodigies from start to finish.

She simply used that Stand Card to truly unleash the terrifying power she had possessed all along.
