"Mister Behalf, I didnât expect you to go on stage for the first match. However, you did mention you wanted to give us some prestige for the Ruâer Force, didnât you..."
Tang Tu showed a look of embarrassment. As a Genius Venerable, at least a genius within Ruâer Force, he still cared about his reputation, but at this moment, he had to swallow his pride and speak nicely to Jia Yan.
He knew Jia Yan would definitely win, but if he wanted to let Ruâer Force have a taste, he needed to say this to Jia Yan.
"As Strong Ones, not even daring to have the thought of revenge..." Jia Yan shook his head, leaving these words behind, climbed onto the battle stage.
The last time in Ruâer Force, the spectators gathered around were in the millions, this time there were even more.
Not only were there locals from the Weitian Martial Arts base but also crowds from various places who hurried to witness the rise to fame of their Strong Ones, densely surrounding the area, with numbers thatâs hard to estimate, perhaps tens of millions.
As for more beings from various forces watching through media or live streaming networks, they were like fish crossing the river, as numerous as stars.
In such a scenario, Jia Yan was calm like still water, without any ripples.
After Jia Yan took the stage, the Respect Level being from Ruâer Force also ascended.
Compared to Jia Yan, he seemed excited and nervous.
"So you are the Ruâer Forceâs secret weapon that hasnât appeared all along? Very well, I am the third Strong Genius of Ruâer Force, it seems we will have a spectacular duel, no wonder the organizers placed us in the first match. Very well, very well!"
This Respect Level being, upon ascending the stage, put on airs like a master, muttering perpetually.
"The opponent for the match is randomly drawn, are you overthinking it?" Jia Yan glanced at him, shook his head: "Do you think we will have a spectacular duel? I donât think so."
"Not a spectacular duel? Are you admitting defeat? Haha, Ruâer Force people have such little spirit. I..."
This Respect Level being wanted to say something else, but before he finished, Jia Yan had already flown forward.
This match had few regulations, except for the one that forbids killing; ascending the stage signifies the start of combat.
There was virtually no time to react. Jia Yan flew to the opponentâs front, and instead of using claws, he swiped with his anterior foot.
A wave of spatial vibration almost erupted in the Starry Sky. Then all spectators saw, the monster hit by Jia Yanâs foot was like a flying meteor, slapped hundreds of kilometers away...
"Uh, Ruâer Force Behalf wins, Ruâer Force Ying Yin loses."
Even the Semi-permanent Star Level host at the sidelines was stunned for a moment, gave Jia Yan a deep look, before announcing the match result.
Amid the cheers and shock of the spectators, Jia Yan descended from the stage without any ripples.
"Jia, Jia Yan, thank you!" Tang Tu rushed forward, expressing his gratitude to Jia Yan repeatedly.
Around them, the beings of Ruâer Force were also extremely shocked by Jia Yan.
They already knew Jia Yanâs power was extraordinary, but they hadnât seen him in action until now.
Now they finally understood the Outsiderâs power, far above their expectations.
Perhaps this Outsider didnât even exert full strength during the battle against Weitian Martial Arts within Ruâer Force.
Now participating in the Genius Pass competition, heâs erupting!
Heâs striking to astonish the world.
Jia Yan didnât pay attention to this group from Ruâer Force, after coming by them, he remained silent.
On the other side, Ruâer Force was equally shocked, especially the Respect Level being Ying Yin, who took several minutes to regain consciousness, looked at Jia Yan from afar, trembled, and dared not meet his gaze.
Respect Level beings from Ruâer Force no longer dared to underestimate Ruâer Force, and not only them, any powerâs Respect Level being present, watching Jia Yanâs expression, was no longer dismissive.
Ruâer Force had always been weak, especially in this Genius Pass competition, never had it produced any outstanding genius, yet here comes someone whom all forcesâ geniuses must respect.
They felt great pressure.
"Next match, Lu Jia Power Ying Yin versus Dog Power Bai Pain..."
...
Subsequent battles no longer featured Jia Yanâs name, after all, there was only one stage, with thousands of geniuses present, completing a round is not an easy task.
Of course, this was just a leisure time for the ordinary spectators, as for the ordinary people from various forces and civilizations, they viewed it as entertainment.
Every time a Respect Level genius appeared, spectators would point and discuss, even if not from their civilization, as long as slightly famous, they could be a hot subject, and some would be highly controversial.
Jia Yan also witnessed the moves of the one equivalent to an Intermediate Talent Genius Venerable. It seemed this Venerable had long been renowned; when he appeared, if not for gaining some fame for their own forces, his opponents would have conceded. Of course, even if they forced themselves to fight, they were still defeated in one strike.
Fortunately, the Respect-Level Beings moved quickly. Even if two geniuses fought over a thousand moves, it wouldnât last ten minutes, and more often, fights were resolved within twenty moves. This way, even if there were a thousand people, victory and defeat were decided within just three days.
"Alright, next is the second round, divided into the loserâs bracket and the winnerâs bracket."
The second round of battles began.
In this round, Jia Yan encountered a Venerable with a seemingly impressive reputation. Of course, this made no difference to Jia Yan; he still defeated the opponent in one move.
This time, the entire arena and outside looked at Jia Yan with a completely different gaze.
"Terrifying! This Behalfâs strength is actually so formidable; it definitely looks like he can rank in the top five!"
"I think not. Although the strength he displayed is also strong, there are still differences between defeating an enemy in one move and defeating an enemy in one move. Look at the previous replays; compared to that Suddenly Possible Lord, both defeated their opponents in one move, but there were subtle differences in efficiency and energy."
The audience was all discussing Jia Yanâs strength, but some keen-eyed spectators, after taking out and reviewing videos of previous battles, concluded that Jia Yan was still inferior to Suddenly Possible.
And that Suddenly Possible was exactly the Intermediate Talent Genius Venerable Jia Yan had seen before. At this moment, he was like an absolute King of the arena, almost proudly looking down upon the crowd in the playersâ area.
"Alas, if this Suddenly Possible knew that once he reached the Genius Battlefield, even if heâs an Intermediate Talent Genius, he wouldnât have much status and might even become a weakling, I wonder if he would still be willing to give up his current status to go to the Genius Battlefield?"
Jia Yan glanced at him, then shook his head helplessly. He believed, even if Suddenly Possible knew, he would definitely still go. Just like the former Jia Yan, willing to do anything to grow stronger, even now heâs the same.
His previous performance was deliberately showing weakness because he estimated that showing more power than Suddenly Possible would be excessive. Keeping it low, roughly at the pinnacle of a lower-grade Talent Genius would be sufficient.
"Hmph, in this entire arena, only that Behalf and my old opponent Dong Ka on the other side can threaten me slightly."
That Suddenly Possible looked at the entire arena as if granting a favor, only becoming slightly solemn when his gaze fell on Jia Yan and the other lower-grade Talent Genius âDong Ka.â"
But there was still disdain in this solemnity.
After all, as an Intermediate Talent Genius, he had long been invincible in the nearby Starfields. Even the genius Dong Ka, had suffered several defeats in his hands.
Itâs the same now. Even though Dong Ka has made great progress, and that mysteriously appeared Behalf is also very mysterious, to him, they are merely slightly larger stumbling blocks by the roadside, easily kicked away.
"This time I must go to the Genius Battlefield, and then stand out in the Genius Battlefield. Considering I am an Intermediate Talent Genius, I must belong to the powerful ones there, even if not the strongest. As long as I work harder than others, I will certainly become one of the famous geniuses in the Genius Battlefield, then successfully cultivate to Stellar level, and go back to the Biochemical Star Region, gaining fame!"
With all this in mind, Suddenly Possible was almost certain about his future.
His stage is destined to be the Genius Battlefield. Although the current scene excites him, what is it compared to his ambition?
"The third round begins."
Because there was still a loserâs bracket in the second round, it took almost the same time as the first round. After three days, the almost sleepy Jia Yan heard the sound of the third round beginning.
"What kind of competition is this? Iâm about to fall asleep watching it."
The genius battles, seen by others as extremely exciting and blood-pumping, were almost boring to Jia Yan. Long since experiencing the thrill of sleep, he even took a little nap.
"Behalf is too diligent, even during this Genius Pass snatching battle, he seizes the time for cultivation. No wonder heâs so formidable."
A group of geniuses from a unified force saw Jia Yan asleep, and his napping was even imagined as taking the opportunity for cultivation, each showing admiration.
If they knew he was actually asleep, wouldnât their eyes pop out?
"The third round has started."
In the third round of battles, Jia Yan faced an ordinary Respectful One; of course, it was a not-so-weak genius that passed two rounds to others, but to Jia Yan, irrelevant...
The fourth round, the fifth round.
Until several rounds had passed, the whole battle scenario became more exciting and attracted more people.
Especially the battles of Suddenly Possible, which made even Jia Yan, who was not paying much attention, look up slightly.
Unfortunately, Intermediate Talent is still Intermediate Talent. If it were a Semi-permanent Star Level, Jia Yan might have a little more interest, but Respect Levelâs Intermediate Talent?
Sleep is still more important.
Finally, it was the fight for the top ten.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this yearâs Genius Pass contest is nearing its end, but the most exciting top ten battles are about to begin. Moreover, only the top five geniuses can get the pass, which means in the next round, as long as each of these ten geniuses defeats their opponent, they can obtain a pass. Strength is important, but luck is also crucial!"
