Seeing this, the Yan Dynasty Star Card Master's heart, which had just calmed down, was once again on tenterhooks.
Although he knew that Yan Beiming would not lose just like that and would definitely have a backup plan, this backup plan was not unsolvable. It was at least a little unbearable.
On one hand, the pinnacle of Nine-Star was too terrifying. It was the pinnacle of Big Brother Style.
After all, no matter how much the Star Card increased in stars, it would not be able to break through to the next level. If it did, it would usually have to pay a heavy price.
This would cause irreparable damage to the Star Card Master and affect their future development.
As for sealing and controlling?
As everyone knew, all the skills of a Star Card had a prerequisite, which was to be at the same level.
For example, a Star Card's limited skill was to immediately seal a specific Star Card. In other words, the probability of sealing was 100%.
This referred to the 100% probability of sealing someone at the same level.
If the opponent's Star Card was at a higher level, the probability of sealing would decrease.
If there was no decrease, it was impossible for a Ka Tu to seal a Kawang, right?
Luo Feng was a Six-Star. Even if Kaihuang or Jiang Ziya had sealing skills, the probability of sealing a Nine-Star Viking Heavenly Bird would be extremely low.
It might not even be 10%.
In other words, the Viking Heavenly Bird could not be controlled at all.
This was even more terrifying than Saitama, who was invincible and uncontrollable.
Yan Beiming's expression was disdainful. He knew that Saitama had only dispelled his invincible state and might still have his terrifying attack power.
However, it was impossible for him to finish off the Viking Heavenly Bird with a single punch.
Facing the Seven-Star Ubuki Heavenly Bird, he had to continuously use a combination of punches to kill it. What about a Nine-Star Viking Heavenly Bird?
Not to mention whether he could break through the Viking Heavenly Bird's defense.
Even if it could, before Saitama defeated the Viking Heavenly Bird, the Viking Heavenly Bird would have killed Saitama several times over!
Every corner of the Tianyuan Continent that was paying attention to this competition burst into an uproar. They looked at the Viking Heavenly Bird in shock and couldn't help but gasp.
"Like I said, those who can enter the top eight shouldn't be so weak."
"From the looks of it, the killing of his Star Card seemed like a bait to summon this Ultimate Big Brother."
"This is bad. That bald donkey was able to push his way through because he had an invincible buff. Now that the buff has been removed, he only has 30% HP left. How are we going to fight him?"
"Luo Feng is still too young."
"…"
Discussions rose and fell as everyone sighed. Although Luo Feng's Star Card did not die in battle, and he seemed to have a huge advantage on the battlefield, Luo Feng's Star Card was still intact.
But the Viking Heavenly Birds were only one step away from the Star Card King and the Card Emperor level. Not to mention three, even if there were five of them, it would be a suicide mission!
"Not bad."
Qin Junyi nodded slightly, admiration in his eyes. Although he wasn't afraid of Luo Feng, it would be a good thing if Yan Beiming could keep him here.
Qi Jin and Mu Nan Zhi's faces were filled with worry, but they were not overly panicked.
After witnessing Luo Feng's growth, they knew that Luo Feng wasn't only good at taking advantage of the situation. Even if it was a hellish situation, he was also very resilient and could quickly counterattack.
However, at this moment, someone suddenly looked at Luo Feng and saw that not only was he not panicking, the corners of his mouth were even slightly raised into a strange arc.
"Hey, he's smiling!"
"Wow, wow, wow, that man is smiling!"
"Does he have a backup plan?"
"You still have the face to smile when you're about to die?" Yan Beiming looked at him with disdain, his eyes cold.
"The longer we delay, the more trouble there will be. Viking Heavenly Bird, end the match."
The Viking Heavenly Bird nodded and looked at Saitama coldly, showing a strong hatred. "Did you have fun fighting just now?"
"Now, I'll let you have a taste of being killed in seconds!"
Boom!
As his voice fell, a crimson star aura suddenly erupted from his body like a volcano. It was vast and mighty, shaking the void.
Rumble …
Not only did the star aura in his body burst out.
The star aura between heaven and earth was like a pot of hot water dripping into oil at this moment, setting off a monstrous boil and continuously gathering in front of the Viking Heavenly Bird.
The terrifying star aura gathered crazily, forming a small fireball.
With the continuous influx of star energy, the fireball's body also rapidly expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the end, it actually reached a diameter of a hundred feet!
It was like a brilliant sun, with electric snakes swimming all over its body. Lightning flashed and flames burned fiercely.
Lightning and flames intertwined. The terrifying star aura fluctuation made the faces of the Star Card Masters in the spectator seats change abruptly!
How terrifying was the full strength attack of a peak nine-star?!
Rumble …
The surrounding space trembled slightly at this moment, as if it was unable to withstand such a frightening pressure and was about to collapse.
"Oh my god, is this the strength of a peak nine-star Kawang?
This is too terrifying! "
"Oh my god, after this move, Luo Feng will probably die along with his three Star Card, right?"
"Luo Feng, hurry up and throw. If you don't throw, you'll lose your life!"
"What a joke. The Brilliant Yan Dynasty advanced to the finals in the previous tournament, but this year, they're stuck in the top eight. How embarrassing!"
At this moment,
Zhao Qianyu of the Divine Strategies Residence,
Liu Xiuyan of the Thousand Island Lake,
Ye Xiaojin of the Hidden Sword Family,
At this moment, they were all slightly solemn. If they were in the same position, they wouldn't know how to block this destructive attack either.
In front of this absolute strength, all scheming skills were pale and powerless.
The only way was to meet force with force.
However, which Star Card of Luo Feng, a mere six-star, was qualified to meet force with force with the Viking Heavenly Bird at this moment?
The Star Card Masters of the Yan Dynasty widened their eyes and covered their mouths as they stared at the screen.
They all knew that once this move landed, the outcome of this match would naturally be decided.
However, they couldn't think of how Luo Feng would block this move!
Zhuo Ying's pretty face froze. Perhaps the outcome of this match was too important, but even someone as calm as her was slightly flustered.
If Luo Feng lost, he wouldn't just lose the championship. Not only would he lose the Heart of the Saint, but he would also lose the fate of the Yan Dynasty!
Although Luo Feng had never been defeated since his debut, and although he was synonymous with creating miracles, who could be ordinary to be able to fight their way out of the Tianyuan Continent and advance to the top eight?
In terms of past achievements, they weren't inferior to Luo Luo Feng's. They had also stepped on a group of prodigies to reach the top. They also had the qualifications to create miracles and strive for the top of the sky!
The air suddenly froze.
The atmosphere was oppressive to the extreme.
"King Luo, do your best!"
At this moment, someone shouted from an unknown corner, breaking the silence in the plaza.
"God Luo, do your best!"
"Don't give up, Chief Pavilion Master. Let them see the power of our Yan Dynasty!"
"I'm about to cry. God Luo, you won't disappoint us, right?
You will definitely create a miracle, right? "
"…"
That "do your best" was like a fuse that ignited the emotions of all the Yan Dynasty Star Card Masters.
At this moment, they all roared out in unison, cheering for their King Luo across thousands of mountains and rivers!
On the arena.
The red fireball in front of the Viking Heavenly Bird grew bigger and bigger.
In the end, it actually swallowed the Viking Heavenly Bird's body, causing the two to merge into one.
It floated in the air like a small sun, emitting a terrifying power.
Gu Hong quietly walked to the side of the barrier and activated his astral energy, silently strengthening the barrier, afraid that it would be destroyed by this attack.
After all, if the destructive attack of a peak nine-star Kawang broke the barrier, it would undoubtedly cause destruction to the audience.
"You think that you can secure victory by taking such a huge advantage in the early stages?" Yan Beiming curled his lips in disdain and said, "All of this is actually within my calculations."
He looked at Luo Feng with a playful gaze, like a cat playing with a mouse, and said, "To let a mere six-star like you participate in the World Championship, there's really no one in the Yan Dynasty."
"Since there's no one, then pack up and get ready to scram!"
Boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, the enormous fireball that the Viking had transformed into was like a brilliant sun that carried the might to incinerate mountains and boil seas and obliterate the heavens and the earth as it flashed through the sky like a ray of light and smashed fiercely towards Luo Feng!
He didn't attack Luo Feng's Star Card. Instead, he attacked Luo Feng directly.
That was because when a Star Card Master was injured, the damage would be evenly distributed to every Star Card.
Hence, when a Star Card Master suffered enough damage, this attack might cause all the Star Card Master's Star Card Master to die!
The fireball swept across the sky, leaving a long and charred trail.
Luo Feng raised his eyelids slightly. In his pitch-black eyes, the fireball whizzed over and gradually enlarged. Soon, it filled his entire pupils.
Under that terrifying temperature, he felt as if his skin was about to melt.
At this moment, Saitama took a step forward and stood in front of Luo Feng.
He looked expressionlessly at the scarlet fireball whizzing over. He shrugged slightly and said lazily, "Just now, it was just an ordinary punch of mine."
Saitama's expression turned solemn. His five fingers slowly clenched. His eyes revealed a raging fighting spirit and a rare solemnity.
"Want to kill me? How can it be so easy?"
Luo Feng sneered. When Saitama started to exert his strength, he had already lost 330 strands of hair, which meant that his strength had increased by 3.3 stars.
Hence, at that time, his realm was already at nine stars. It was just that he had been using ordinary attacks. His only skill, Continuous Ordinary Punches, was actually a fast ordinary attack.
Ordinary attacks didn't need to consume star qi. Hence, others couldn't judge his realm from the star qi that pervaded the air.
And when Saitama began to exert his strength and destroyed the opponent's three Star Card, his hair was constantly falling. After all, every 1% of damage caused, a strand of hair would be lost.
He had destroyed all three Star Card opponents. From this, it could be seen how much hair he had lost.
And every time a strand of hair was lost, his realm would increase.
This was just a saying. Saitama had already reached the perfect nine stars without batting an eyelid!
If it weren't for the restriction of breaking through to the next realm, Saitama's realm would have soared to the Card Emperor realm!
Boom boom...
All the Genesis Qi in his body bloomed with dazzling light. Like magma, it surged in his body and then flowed through his limbs and bones to his fist.
Dazzling light bloomed in the center of his fist, containing a destructive power.
Swoosh!
In the next instant, he leaped into the air, clenched his fist tightly, and punched towards the blazing sun that was whistling towards him.
That punch contained all his strength. It was a serious punch.
Boom!
The punch blasted out. The surrounding space trembled as if it was about to collapse.
In the next moment, under the shocked gazes of many people, Saitama's serious punch brought about ripples in the air as it landed on the huge fireball in a calm manner.
Bang!
The eyes of the entire world were now focused on Saitama. No one had expected that in the face of the Viking Heavenly Bird Beast's devastating attack, he would choose to fight with his life on the line!
However, in most people's eyes, Saitama was only doing this to block the attack for Luo Feng.
Because if this attack were to land on Luo Feng's body, it was possible that Luo Feng and all his Star Cards would all explode and die.
And if Saitama blocked the attack, only his Star Card would have died.
"I'm so touched that I'm about to cry."
"It seems that we'll have to stop at the top eight."
"The era of the Yan Dynasty has ended long ago."
"…"
Boom!
The two collided, and an earth-shattering explosion resounded. A terrifying shockwave of astral energy spread out in all directions.
The shockwave wreaked havoc, and the barrier trembled. If Gu Hong hadn't secretly reinforced it, it would have exploded.
The shockwave wreaked havoc, and the already messy arena was now in an unbearable state.
Everyone's hearts trembled. The destructive power of a nine-star pinnacle Kawang was too terrifying.
The astral energy rose, and dust filled the air. It was like a curtain that covered the figures of the two Star Cards. No one could see the situation clearly.
"That One Punch Superman should be dead, right?" someone couldn't help but ask.
At that moment, the raging flames gradually subsided.
The crowd cast their gazes over, and their field of vision became clear.
In the air, the Viking Heavenly Bird and Saitama were floating with their backs facing each other.
However, in the next moment, they were horrified to see that the previously arrogant Viking Heavenly Bird's HP had reached zero!
At that moment, Saitama's condition was bleak. His HP was pitifully low, but at least he still had HP!
"Finished with one punch again."
Saitama's eyes drooped slightly as he gently rubbed his fist. He said with some interest, "How boring."
"Why? Why was I finished with one punch?!" The Viking Heavenly Bird's voice was low, and his horrified face was filled with anger and indignation.
He was a nine-star pinnacle Star Card, an invincible existence. How could he not be able to withstand one punch from Saitama?
"Because …" Saitama's eyes reflected a strange glint. "Because I'm getting serious."
[Serious Punch]: Limited Skill. When Saitama loses at least 50 strands of hair, One Punch Superman can use this skill. With a serious punch, he can instantly kill a Star Card or a summoned creature of the same level.
The Viking Heavenly Bird's face was filled with disappointment. He had thought that he would be unstoppable after fusing with his body and becoming a nine-star pinnacle.
However, who would have thought that Saitama would rely on a simple and unadorned punch to completely destroy all of his trump cards and confidence.
"All of this is actually an illusion. You're messing with my mentality, right?!" The Viking Heavenly Bird couldn't help but ask in disbelief.
Saitama smiled and touched his glowing head. He let out a long sigh and said, "It's over."
Bang! Bang! Bang!
At the same time, the Viking Heavenly Bird's huge body collapsed like a mountain. Cracks appeared and spread out like a spider web.
"Fortunately, I didn't disappoint you. I took the top four." Luo Feng raised his head and grinned.
The sun was setting in the west, and the setting sun was as red as blood.
Countless gazes were cast over.
Saitama lowered his gaze and gently rubbed his fist.
Behind him, the Viking Heavenly Bird's huge body collapsed rapidly.
