Chapter 551: You’ve Actually Been Paying Attention to Me in Secret?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Hugely unexpected!

After defeating Chi Xuan, Wang Ye’s strength had been recognized.

Still, no one expected him to be so strong that he could eliminate Wen Rou in a head-on confrontation.

In a match where physical combat was disastrous, he had taken the key match point and entered the finals.

The two dark horses of the starfield empire, Piao Baibai and Wen Rou, stopped in the semi-finals.

Instead, the hidden pearl of a small nation was competing for the championship!

“Is it just my imagination? I keep feeling Wen Rou doesn’t seem as strong as when she fought against Jiu Gedi in the quarter-finals.”

“I feel that it’s the exact opposite. Wen Rou played very well in this match. She displayed great combat prowess right from the start. She was much stronger than when she was suppressed by Jiu Gedi in the semi-finals! The reason why she lost so easily was that Wang Ye’s strategy was better and his attack power was stronger.”

“It was an explosive match. Both were evenly matched. Wang Ye indeed has a better understanding of Wen Rou and has set up the overall situation early on. The first wave of explosive attacks defeated Wen Rou immediately. However, Wen Rou is really amazing. She almost turned the tables again. It’s too unfortunate, it’s really a pity!”

“The semi-final match was very exciting, a match of equal strength! You think it’s a pity that Wen Rou lost because you underestimated Wang Ye. He’s more low-key than Jiu Gedi, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have the strength. He has defeated Chi Xuan and Wen Rou consecutively. Now, Wang Ye is definitely qualified to compete for the championship!”

Swoosh!

Wang Ye once again appeared in the empty preparation space.

There was no one around, and it was strangely quiet.

He had won.

However, just like Xian Yuyan from the previous round, he had only won with a stroke of luck.

If it was Wen Rou who hadn’t fought with Jiu Gedi yet, he would have been able to take her down with a storm of attacks.

In fact, the first time he used the limit break skill of Samsara, his killer move, was a crucial juncture where he seriously injured Wen Rou.

In addition to the continuous bombardment of origin power, with his understanding of Wen Rou, he should be able to win the competition.

But he didn’t.

It wasn’t a problem with the strategy, but Wen Rou had become stronger.

After she broke through to have high-dimensional willpower, even if she had just comprehended it, she had improved greatly in all aspects.

She had lost because her core had not reached its peak in this battle.

She was Wen Rou. The path of willpower was both strong and weak in the heart.

Starcluster Empire.

Wen Rou left the human virtual cosmic.

“What are you doing?! Wen Rou! Why did you lose to that bastard!” A royal noble roared in anger, his veins bulging. “Do you know how much effort and resources we spent to nurture you?! You are a killing machine! You’re not human! You shouldn’t have any feelings! You are a madman who exists to kill! You should have killed that bastard like how you killed Jiu Gedi in the semifinals! You should enter the finals and win the championship for the Starcluster Empire! You-”

Pu!

Blood splattered everywhere.

Wen Rou looked at the beheaded royal noble with a blank expression.

“What are you doing?! Wen Rou!” The other nobles were shocked and terrified.

“He’s not a bastard. His name is Wang Ye,” Wen Rou said calmly. “Also, I’m not a killing machine, nor am I a lunatic. It was you who deceived, oppressed, and tortured me all this while. You wanted to turn me into an emotionless killing machine and become your puppet. I’m not the one who lost. The one who lost was Wen Rou of the past. You’re the ones who lost.”

Clang! Clang!

Her blade and sword clashed, and a terrifying killing intent burst out from Wen Ron’s eyes. Her surging high-dimensional willpower was driven, and the path of killing intent surged. Her terrifying aura increased crazily, and her saber heart and sword heart soared, crushing the group of Undying Lifeforms.

Boom!

In the preparation space, Wang Ye sat on the ground and quietly watched the last match.

Xian Yuyan against Dongheng Wanyi.

The collision of two top-tier experts.

“You’re very brave, young man.” Wang Ye saw a Dongheng Wanyi he had never seen before.

The other party wanted to prove himself. His fighting style was completely different from when he fought against Qing Yu in the quarterfinals.

True dragons surrounded him, and a purple aura surged. Dongheng Wanyi’s attacks were relentless, and with the might of an innate supreme treasure, he was unstoppable.

At this moment, he had the upper hand.

Unfortunately, he was up against the woman with the strongest defense in the Supernova Prodigy Tournament.

Wang Ye had already seen Xian Yuyan’s three self-created sword techniques.

One was for offense, one was for defense, and the other was for both offense and defense.

Not only did her growth-type bloodline of Swordseeker give her extremely strong sword attainments, but she also had a natural affinity with swords.

Whether it was cultivating the sword heart and sword intent, or creating sword techniques, she could do so with half the effort for twice the result.

“I really want to possess her and create a saber technique for myself.” Wang Ye sighed.

Regardless of whether it was saber heart or saber intent, they needed to be self­created to reach a higher level.

A saber technique he created with his own comprehension of the saber and understanding of the saber technique would not only be more suitable for him, but it would also be more powerful.

It was another protracted battle.

Wang Ye was quite impressed by Xian Yuyan.

As the favorite to win the championship, not only did she withstand the pressure, but she also had excellent mental strength and faced the strongest challenges along the way.

Qing Xuan and Piao Biaobiao both had the potential to win the championship, but they were all defeated by her.

Right now, there was only Dongheng Wanyi left. The young man was very experienced.

“His tempo is very strong. Taking advantage of Xian Yuyan’s fatigue from the consecutive battles, he is displaying his strength. It’s just a matter of whether he can take Xian Yuyan down in one go.” Wang Ye watched the match and immersed himself in it.

His opponent could be anyone in the finals.

Therefore, this battle was very important. He had to watch it carefully.

The fierce battle continued, and the two were very patient. Their offense and defense intertwined, and they were evenly matched.

He and Wen Rou fought fiercely.

Xian Yuyan and Dongheng Wanyi were carefully killing each other.

Gradually, the battle turned fierce as the two started exchanging injuries for injuries.

Dongheng Wanyi began to increase the intensity of his attacks!

As if he had already figured out Xian Yuyan’s plan, he intensified his attacks. The innate supreme treasure shone brightly, unleashing all its power.

Xian Yuyan retreated, defending while counterattacking, not the least bit afraid either.

Blood splattered across the sky. The two, who had fought to the peak, fought even more crazily.

The more the battle reached its climax and limit, the more it showed the hearts of the people.

The brave will win!

“Xian Yuyan’s desire to win is too strong.” Wang Ye admired this otherworldly fairy very much.

Her determination to win far exceeded Dongheng Wanyi’s.

It was an obsession to win no matter the price or the pain!

In comparison, Dongheng Wanyi, who had a rich life and an abundance of treasures, regarded victory as his goal.

He did not want to lose. But that was all.

In this battle where details determined success or failure, the difference in the desire to win was enough to determine the final outcome.

Dongheng Wanyi was very strong in all aspects. His path comprehension, battle experience, and even the quality of his supreme treasures were all above Xian Yuyan.

The only thing missing was something very important.

Dongheng Eternal Nation.

After leaving the human virtual cosmic, Dongheng Wanyi sat there in a daze, feeling confused.

He had lost.

He had thought about it countless times in his heart and found a reason for his failure, but when the moment of failure arrived… It still felt very uncomfortable.

Mixed feelings.

His heart felt empty as if he had been stabbed by a sword.

Why?

It was just a small Super Star-level competition. He didn’t care at all!

Losing to Xian Yuyan would at most cause him to lose a little face.

It shouldn’t matter!

But why was it so uncomfortable?

“Do you know why you lost?” His father’s kind voice rang out in his ears.

” I…” Dongheng Wan Yi opened his mouth subconsciously. He wanted to say the reason that he had already thought of, but he could not say it out loud at this moment. He said softly, “I’m not as good as her.”

“It’s your heart, child,” Dongheng Emperor said in a deep voice. “Your heart has too many distracting thoughts. You hesitate and fear failure. No matter how talented or outstanding you are, it’s hard to achieve anything. Xian Yuyan never thought that she would lose.”

Thud.

Dongheng Wanyi’s heart trembled violently.

This was not the first time his father had said this to him, but at this moment, it touched him even more.

“Teach me, Father!” Dongheng Wan gritted his teeth.

“Didn’t you turn out to be like this after my teaching?” Dongheng Emperor sighed.

Dongheng Wanyi: “…”

“Go to Primordial Star.” Dongheng Emperor’s voice rang out. “Leave my protection and find your own opportunities. Walk the path you want to walk. Isn’t this the reason why you chose reincarnation?”

Dongheng Wanyi nodded. Just as he stood up, he suddenly thought of something and hesitated. “Father, what if I…”

“Get lost and never come back.”

In the preparation space.

Swoosh!

Xian Yuyan’s beautiful figure appeared before his eyes.

“Hi.” Wang Ye greeted her with a smile.

Their eyes met. Xian Yuyan’s beautiful face didn’t have any change in expression.

“You don’t seem surprised at all.” Wang Ye looked at her.

“I have never underestimated you.” Xian Yuyan’s voice was clear and pleasant.

“Thank you for your praise.” Wang Ye said.

“But Wen Rou is stronger than you,” Xian Yuyan said.

“You’ve actually been secretly paying attention to me?” Wang Ye couldn’t help laughing.

Xian Yuyan was different from Dongheng Wany.

She had come out before him in the first three rounds. Clearly, she had watched him compete.

“I paid attention to all of you,” Xian Yuyan said.

“You look aloof from worldly affairs,” Wang Ye said with a smile. “But you’re full of desires.”

“I want to get first place,” Xian Yuyan said.

She was so honest.

Wang Ye looked at her. “So, do you think you’ll definitely get first place now?” “I will not underestimate any opponent, including you. But…” Xian Yuyan spoke slowly. “I will definitely get first place. I won’t lose to anyone.” “What if you lose?” Wang Ye stared at her eyes which were as bright as stars. “There are no ifs.” Xian Yuyan’s voice rang out.

Their gazes met, mixed with a strong fighting spirit.

Wang Ye suddenly smiled. “Let’s not talk about what ifs. He’s already eliminated. It’s impolite to talk about him again. There’s no point in chatting. Let’s fight.”

Wang Ye smiled. He didn’t hide his desire to fight. “It won’t be easy to defeat me and take first place. My heart is not as weak as Wanyi.”

“I know,” Xian Yuyan said calmly.

Their eyes met, and sparks flew.

The lights focused, and the screen suddenly changed. Two names disappeared. Only the last two people were left!

Everyone’s attention was on them.

The finals!

A battle at the peak, Xian Yuyan versus Wang Ye!
