Jia Yan knew he was about to be exposed, but he couldnât avoid exploding.
The sudden, intense sense of crisis made him disregard everything.
Finally, on the ninth day of the ship ticket battle, the day before the ship set sail, a group of geniuses faced the last day that could decide the fate of thousands of them.
Jia Yan also made it to this fight; during this time, he defeated three Medium-Talent Experts, and apart from a few High Talent Geniuses, he was even referred to as one of the strongest in this generation of geniuses!
This battle had a roster of two thousand, with each paired against another. The winners would be the fortunate ones who could go to the Genius Battlefield the next day.
By this point in the battle, besides those few High Talent Geniuses, every dignitary was extremely nervous because reaching this step meant that if they encountered someone with strength similar to their own, all their previous efforts would turn to nothing.
The ship ticket battle cannot have fights between High Talent Geniuses. You could say itâs manipulation; you could say itâs to protect the geniuses, but those are the rules.
"Lord Behalf, we really didnât expect you to make it this far. Participating in this ship ticket battle with you is an honor; we hope you can get through today safely."
The four dignitaries who came together no longer wanted to compare themselves to Jia Yan; after all, when one surpasses others by too much, others lose the desire to compete.
"Thank you for your kind words."
Jia Yan lightly nodded to this company of attendants, his attitude growing increasingly cold. After tomorrow, they would once again become people from two different worlds. Honestly, they were never on the same plane as Jia Yan to begin with.
The group of dignitaries wasnât angry about Jia Yanâs demeanor; they merely felt the gap between them growing wider and could only shake their heads helplessly.
The battle had begun.
One genius after another took the stage. Among them, some were dark horses, while others were defeated by the opponent.
Many geniuses were unwilling to fall at this last step.
Finally, after several battles, it was Jia Yanâs turn!
However, as soon as Jia Yanâs name was announced from the stage, the entire arena was in an uproar.
"How could it be, this is a match between a top-tier dark horse and a High Talent Genius. Logically, the organizers would not let such a battle occur."
"Itâs hard to say; there have been similar instances before. After all, the organizers also want High Talent Geniuses to see the strength among geniuses. A dark horse like this can pose a certain threat to them, giving them more preparation for the Genius Battlefield."
"I see, but that Behalf is unlucky, encountering such a situation; now, his chance to go to the Genius Battlefield is gone."
The commotion inside and outside the arena also affected the dignitaries around Jia Yan.
Dong Ka startled, then smiled bitterly as he looked at Jia Yan, who was preparing to step on stage.
"Lord Behalf, this is luck. Donât be discouraged. If it doesnât work out, you can concede; after three years, you can try again. After all, you are still young and have another opportunity."
"Yes, Lord Behalf, your opponent in this match is the High Talent Lu Er, whose strength is considered strong even among High Talent Geniuses. A head-on fight will definitely lead to injuries, so donât act rashly."
The advice from behind went unheeded by Jia Yan, who merely had a strange glint flashing in his Compound Eyes.
"Is this really an accident, or..."
He felt extremely sensitive about the surroundings, as if those defense facilities and five Pseudo Stellar Level Powerhouses showed no movement, which made Jia Yan both puzzled and somewhat reassured.
He thought it should be an accident.
In any case, having reached this step, even risking exposure or arousing suspicion, he had to try...
"That super ship, the Commander is a high-level Semi-permanent Star Level powers from the Genius Battlefield. If I meet the requirements of the Genius Battlefield, then the talent-valuing Genius Battlefield will open its gates for me, regardless of any grudges with the Biochemical Star Region."
Recalling the intelligence he had previously received, Jia Yan felt more resolved in his heart.
No matter what, having reached this point, even if he has to fight desperately, he will take the chance.
Then Jia Yan, under the eyes of the observers, full of pity, ridicule, hostility, and other emotions, walked onto the battle stage.
The High-Talent Venerable across from him had already taken the stage.
This High Talent Genius, named Lu Er, was very famous throughout the Biochemical Star Region.
"Behalf, I know you. As a medium-talent genius, reaching this step is quite something. Unfortunately, you have gone too far in defeating my cousin. So, as his cousin, I applied for this match with you. Your path ends here."
When Lu Er got on stage, he revealed a shocking insider fact.
"What? This battle was actually applied for by Lu Er."
"It turns out itâs all a manipulation. This match isnât even random; itâs simply outrageous."
"Lu Er revealed a shocking insider fact; one of the opponents Behalf defeated before, the one named Liu Duo, is his cousin. To avenge his cousin, he didnât hesitate to apply for a manipulative match. Itâs simply despicable."
"Ha ha, whatâs the big deal about this? Blame Huangfu for being too high-profile, daring to defeat Liu Duo without a scratch. As Liu Duoâs cousin, itâs strange if Lu Er doesnât show some reaction."
Audience members and contestants alike were incredibly shocked by what Lu Er said. However, in this universe where the strong prevail, Lu Erâs actions werenât entirely unacceptable to them. If thereâs blame to place, itâs only on Huangfu for being too weak.
Initially, upon hearing what Lu Er said, the âBehalfâ who everyone thought would be extremely angry was surprisingly calm.
"Really? So this was your arrangement..." Jia Yan shook his head, not expecting that revealing some of his power would come from defeating an intermediate talent expert previously.
"If youâre so eager to die, then come on." He sighed, seemingly mocking himself, yet also mocking the Lu Er opposite him.
"What? Did I mishear? Did he actually say Iâm seeking death?!" Lu Er was stunned.
You must understand that heâs a high-end talent venerable and not even the weakest among the high-end talent dignitaries in this batch. And now, an intermediate talent venerable dares to say heâs seeking death?!
"Wow, Huangfu is so fierce, daring to utter such explosive words to Lu Er."
"Now thereâs no chance of a peaceful resolution. Initially, losing to Huangfu would be enough. But with those words, if Lu Er doesnât find a way to seriously injure him, it would be a loss of face. The dignity of a high-level genius isnât that easily trampled."
As expected, after Jia Yan spoke these words, the Lu Er before him was nearly bursting with anger.
"Itâs me whoâs seeking death? I think youâre the one! Prepare to be seriously injured!"
Lu Er, disregarding the arrogance of a high-level genius, immediately took action!
In a flash of anger, he charged directly at Jia Yan.
Being a high-level talent venerable, he naturally possessed his own strength, and this strength was definitely earth-shattering even in the Genius Battlefield.
"Not bad, even without the baptism of the Genius Battlefield, he deserves the title of high-level talent."
Jia Yan lightly evaluated this venerable in his heart, acknowledging the otherâs strength, but without a single thought of wanting to lose.
After all, he was an absolutely strong one far surpassing ordinary geniuses!
Levels and talents were almost a joke to him now; to one who could almost step into stellar levels, a mere high-end talent venerable couldnât withstand even a glance if he unleashed his true strength!
However, now was not the time to show his full strength!
Whoosh!!
A very fast shadow suddenly appeared in the sky.
Jia Yan utilized his space talent, not by entering subspace, as that would be too shocking, but by using distorted space to quickly counter-charge towards the approaching Lu Er.
"So fast? But what are you doing, not using speed to dodge my attack and instead crashing directly, could he really be seeking death?!" Lu Er saw Jia Yan advancing rather than retreating, rushing towards him, and his expression changed repeatedly.
The surrounding contestants and onlookers had the same mindset.
"Crazy, this Huangfu is truly crazy. First, he provokes a high-level talent venerable, and now he doesnât even dodge the attack, but charges back at the opponent."
"Who does he think he is? Does he think heâs also a high-level talent powerhouse? Itâs simply absurd."
All spectators and participants found Jia Yanâs actions inconceivable, thinking he was crazy without any other reason.
Even if you are fast, what use is speed against a high-level genius? High-level geniuses almost outpace intermediate geniuses in all respects; otherwise, they wouldnât be a whole level stronger.
Once reaching high-level talent, itâs not like with initial-level geniuses that a bit of luck might let you defeat an intermediate-level genius; the gap between high and intermediate-level geniuses is like an unfathomable deep ocean trench, impossible to cross.
Everyone watched the battle zone, where the two rapidly approaching figures collided almost instantly.
"Hmph, daring to disdain we high-level talents. Surely heâs seriously hurt now."
A high-level talent venerable on the sidelines felt a surge of hostility towards Jia Yan, and seeing both sides collide, he sneered.
"Hmm? Thatâs not right!" But another high-level talent genius beside him had a sudden change of expression just as he was about to laugh.
"Whatâs not right, could it be..."
The former, also a high-level talent venerable, hurriedly gazed at the battlefield, then wore an expression as if seeing something incredible.
"Heavens!"
"He, he actually blocked it!"
"Impossible!"
At the same moment, all creatures around the entire battle platform, which housed millions of life forms, including those pseudo stellar level strong ones, exclaimed in utter shock.
