Battle Palace.
Dragon Fushan admitted defeat in the semi-finals, and Xi Qianye advanced.
On the other side, Ling Tianyu won the battle with Leng Ruoyou without any suspense.
Furthermore, the process of Ling Tianyu defeating Leng Ruoyou was rather easy, truly displaying his invincible side.
Such a result was naturally very encouraging. Those who were anxious and panicked finally found a bit of security.
Many people believed that if Ling Tianyu didn't go easy, Xi Qianye wouldn't have won.
The finals of the Star of Brilliance was scheduled for three days later, but during this period of time, the audience in the battle palace didn't leave and waited silently.
Xi Qianye sat quietly in the secret room. In order to prevent others from disturbing him, he almost didn't go out.
Three days passed in a flash.
Finally, the finals arrived.
A lump of spatial energy descended from the waiting hall and enveloped Xi Qianye, instantly disappearing from his original spot.
When he reappeared, he was already at the peak of an ancient mountain.
Looking around, the surroundings were all densely packed green. The mountains were continuous, and there was no end in sight.
There was nothing special about this space, and it was no different from ordinary space. The only special thing was that it was rather vast.
"Xi Qianye, I originally thought that you wouldn't have the chance to appear in front of me, but you surprised me."
A faint voice resounded between heaven and earth. That voice was distant and empty, and it constantly reverberated between the mountains.
Xi Qianye looked over and saw a white-clothed youth standing on the peak of another mountain.
That white-clothed youth was wearing a long robe. He stood in the wind as though he was a man from the heavens, and was rather handsome and extraordinary.
Clearly, this person was the legendary Ling Tianyu, the most outstanding genius of the Divine Bloodline Human Clan.
Even before the appearance of the Long Tian'er, he was known as the most talented person in the Black White Divine City for ten thousand years.
As a member of the Divine Bloodline Human Clan, although his height was very tall and sturdy compared to ordinary people, it was rare that he was only about four meters tall, much shorter than other Divine Bloodline Human Clan members.
According to common knowledge, the taller and sturdier a Divine Bloodline Human Clan member was, the stronger he was.
But Ling Tianyu was obviously the opposite …
A look of astonishment flashed past Xi Qianye's eyes. Ling Tianyu's height was actually shorter than ordinary Divine Meridians humans.
This meant that he had great control over his own bloodline.
In fact, some truly powerful humans with Divine Veins were no different from ordinary humans.
Because the God Spirit Blood-Pulse in their bodies had been refined by them, they could control it. They could take it out as they wished. They wouldn't be too big.
Ling Tianyu had his hands behind his back, looking elegant and graceful. It was as though he wasn't here to fight, but to sightsee.
He walked forward step by step, pacing in the air as he looked down at Xi Qianye from above. His eyes were completely calm.
"Xi Qianye, why don't you admit defeat yourself so that I won't embarrass you.
From the moment you provoked the Divine Vein Human Clan, you couldn't have succeeded. "
Ling Tianyu said indifferently.
In fact, he admired the storm that Xi Qianye had caused in the gambling house.
This was indeed the fastest way to earn the most benefits. There was no better way to gather wealth than by robbing all the ignorant citizens of Black White God City.
If it weren't for the fact that Xi Qianye had thoroughly offended the Divine Vein Human Clan and even damaged the dignity of the Divine Vein Human Clan, he was actually willing to play along with Xi Qianye. He only needed to give him half of the benefits afterwards.
How could the title of Star of Brilliance's champion compare to real wealth?
Xi Qianye looked at Ling Tianyu strangely. He didn't expect this young man to ask him to admit defeat the moment he opened his mouth … From what he said, it was as though he didn't even need to fight.
In terms of arrogance, he might not lose to Ling Tianxiong, or even surpass him.
When the spectators saw how overbearing and arrogant Ling Tianyu was, they were happy.
With Ling Tianyu's words, they felt more at ease.
At least, Ling Tianyu wouldn't lose to Xi Qianye on purpose.
Furthermore, Ling Tianyu's strength was already deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The moment Ling Tianyu became serious, Xi Qianye would have no hope at all.
For a moment, the spectators seemed to have turned into fanatical believers as they cheered for Ling Tianyu and cheered him on.
In the sky, Ling Tianyu seemed to be able to hear the cheers and shouts of the spectators. His lips curled up slightly as his eyes were filled with pride and satisfaction.
Today!
This was the day that was destined to belong to him. Everyone's gazes, expectations, and respect were all gathered on him alone.
Xi Qianye's appearance was just a stepping stone for him to successfully ascend to the Nine Heavens.
"Xi Qianye, don't think that you have the qualifications to challenge me just because you managed to block Long Fushan's attack. Even if Long Fushan himself saw me, he wouldn't have any chance.
As for you, that's even more impossible.
Haha … Oh right, let me tell you a secret.
Actually, when Long Fushan exchanged blows with you, he only used seventy percent of his strength.
Now that you know the truth, aren't you surprised? "
Ling Tianyu wasn't anxious at all as he leisurely floated in the air and chatted with Xi Qianye. He really enjoyed the feeling of being watched and anticipated by hundreds of millions of people at the same time.
If he were to defeat Xi Qianye too quickly, wouldn't it be very boring?
The moment he said that, the spectators went into an uproar.
Although Long Fushan didn't have an all-out battle with Xi Qianye, he admitted defeat and retreated after just one move.
But from that move, everyone could tell that Long Fushan didn't gain any advantage. Instead, Xi Qianye was slightly better.
Because of that, there were so many people who were afraid and worried. They were afraid that Xi Qianye was really too strong, and would defeat Ling Tianyu and become the champion.
In the end, Ling Tianyu actually said that Long Fushan had only used seventy percent of his strength in that shocking clash … In that instant, many people jumped up in excitement.
Didn't that mean that Xi Qianye wasn't as strong as they had imagined, and wasn't on the same level as Ling Tianyu?
"Big Brother Fushan, when you fought with Xi Qianye, did you really only use seventy percent of your strength?"
In the spectators' palace, a group of youths from Black White Divine City surrounded Long Fushan as they asked with curiosity and excitement.
Long Fushan didn't say anything, and only frowned slightly.
He didn't expect Ling Tianyu's eyes to be so sharp, to be able to tell how much strength he had used.
From the looks of it, he had still underestimated Ling Tianyu. If he were to fight with him, his chances of winning would be even lower, or even none.
Seeing that Long Fushan didn't say anything, everyone knew that he had silently agreed, and were all extremely happy.
So!
Xi Qianye wasn't as strong as they had imagined, and Long Fushan didn't even use his full strength.
"Big Brother Fushan, does Xi Qianye have any hope of winning?" Ling Lannuo couldn't help but ask.
Long Fushan muttered to himself for a moment, and then said softly, "I don't know.
Maybe … the hope is very slim. "
