CHAPTER 1583: CHAPTER 9: ALSO INTERMEDIATE TALENT [REQUEST FOR OFFICIAL SUBSCRIPTION]

The power of this strike by Tufu, of course, surpassed the strength that an average dignitary should possess. In the context of ordinary strong ones, it could equal a full-force strike by someone at a low secondary level.

After all, no matter how much Jia Yan looked down on him, he was still an intermediate talent genius, a terrifying existence that ordinary beings would hardly dare to confront directly.

But this strike, while impressive in others’ eyes, for Jia Yan...

Was completely negligible!

"Haha, you actually aren’t dodging, prepare to die!"

Suddenly Tufu rushed to attack, ’Behalf’ appeared utterly stunned, and didn’t move at all.

"This Behalf must have never encountered such a frightening intermediate talent genius in his entire life, rendering him petrified."

"Exactly, I see that from now on, he will lose the will to promote due to being defeated by this strike, such a promising genius, what a pity."

The audience observed that Jia Yan dared not move at all, and they all showed sympathetic expressions.

Anyone in Jia Yan’s position would likely behave the same way, a pity, truly unfortunate.

The entire starry sky erupted into dazzling brilliance.

Then a figure, like a shell shot out, spewing blood while being blasted backward.

"Sure enough, truly pathetic."

"Alas, that Behalf was quite decent too, to have been defeated so miserably."

One by one, the onlookers watched the figure being blasted back, all showing sympathy.

"No, something’s wrong!"

At this moment, a semi-permanent star level spectator suddenly showed a change in expression, and exclaimed.

"What’s wrong? Why do you say that." The spectators around were puzzled, the battle situation was clearly seen by everyone, what could be wrong?

Could it be that the one being blasted back is Tufu, this isn’t some comedy battle...

"Eh?" A spectator next to a semi-permanent star level strong one, initially intended to laugh, but after gazing at the battle situation, was equally shaken.

At the same time, numerous spectators discovered something amiss.

Because the blasted-back figure seemed very familiar.

Judging by the physique, it was definitely not the flying creature Behalf.

"Oh my! It’s actually Tufu! This, this, this..."

Suddenly, a sharp-eyed spectator yelled out in shock.

"How is it possible, it’s actually Tufu, how could he attack and yet be the one blasted backward?"

"What exactly happened, why is it like this."

While a group of beings were almost rendered speechless by the shocking scene before them, Tufu, not in vain being an intermediate talent genius, as he was about to be blasted out of the battlefield ring, managed to halt his body by suddenly activating his Brainwave Power.

"You..."

He turned around, looking back at the place that had exploded with a strike, when suddenly a figure emerged slowly from the radiant brilliance.

Could it not be Behalf?

"You, are also an intermediate talent genius!?" Tufu asked in shock.

In the battle circle, Jia Yan nodded slightly and said lightly, "That’s correct."

During the prior strike, he finally made the decision to slightly elevate his disguised extent.

Reaching the strength of a medium-talent expert.

At just the right moment, Tufu attacked confidently, firmly believing that his attack wouldn’t fail, which allowed Jia Yan to seize the opportunity, effortlessly knocking him back with minimal force.

These words sound complicated, but it all happened in an instant.

"Damn it! You are also intermediate talent, and yet you concealed it until now, causing my carelessness to injure me!"

Tufu’s expression was extremely unpleasant, knowing that in the previous strike, he faintly felt the power employed by the opponent wasn’t significant, despite both being intermediate talents; the power gap should not have been this vast.

It was all due to his carelessness, or perhaps Behalf had from the start hidden his strength to wait for him here!?

"Hehe...you may think that," Jia Yan neither admitted nor denied it, which only further enraged Tufu.

"It must be! You have been calculating against me all along, how can someone like you be fit to become a strong one!"

Hearing Tufu’s words, Jia Yan sighed deeply.

Not to mention that he had no intention of plotting against the other, even if he had before, does plotting preclude becoming a strong one?

Every strong one has their own mode of battle; coincidentally, strong ones proficient in scheming hold immense positions in the universe, and among those geniuses in battles that surpass tiers, most are adept at scheming and trapping.

"Tufu, no matter what you say, you have lost. Admit it." Jia Yan said calmly.

"I haven’t lost! Even if my power has declined, I will never lose!"

Tufu went mad, charging towards Jia Yan with all his might.

He knew that he had suffered a severe injury in the previous strike, and his strength, which was once comparable to ’Lord Bi Huangfu’, was now instantly inferior.

But he was unwilling.

Just one last step, and he would have reached the Central Star Area of the Biochemical Star Region, preparing for the final battle of the Genius Battlefield ticket. Falling here was a lifetime humiliation for him.

So he wanted to unleash all his strength, to see if there was still a possibility to turn the tables.

"Humph, overestimating yourself!"

Jia Yan shook his head lightly, then simulated equal strength to dodge the blow.

His combat skills surpassed the opponent’s by an unknown margin. Even if he pretended to have the same strength, it was nothing the mere medium-talent expert before him could compare to.

Once again, a battle wave flickered in the starry sky, and Tufu spewed a mouthful of blood, weakening.

"Damn it, it’s not supposed to be like this. It’s not supposed to be like this." Tufu wanted to move, but couldn’t.

"Uh, in this match, Bi Huangfu wins. When strong ones come face to face, the hero wins. Bi Huangfu earns the ticket to the Central Star Area!"

The referee from the Red Sky Martial Arts Hall was in a daze for a while before announcing the battle result.

"Heavens! What did I just see? The unmatched Tufu actually lost, and at the final step too."

"I laughed so hard, what intermediate talent genius can’t even pass the regional battle. So that’s the level of so-called medium-talent strongmen."

"It’s not that Tufu was too weak, but that his opponent was as strong as him, and Lord Bi Huangfu had deeper schemes. Look, this is the outcome of being too complacent. Did you hear, in the future you must not be overly relaxed, even if you appear stronger than the enemy, for the enemy might be far more cunning than you imagined."

The audience members were almost unable to recover from the shock.

In this Genius Pass competition, until the end, the most promising intermediate talent genius Tufu failed to enter the top five, falling under the previously unknown ’Bi Huangfu’.

And Bi Huangfu, under Tufu’s extreme confidence, unleashed the same level of intermediate talent strength, causing the entire audience to be deeply shocked.

This is fate.

"Impossible, I cannot lose. I am the genius of our star zone that only appears once in decades; I will not lose."

Watching Tufu being dragged off the stage like a dead dog by his powerhouse’s experts, the entire audience fell into silence.

"Alas, it’s quite a pity for Lord Tufu as well. Who would have expected that in this session, two intermediate talent geniuses, who appear only once in decades here, would show up at once."

Jia Yan returned to the area where the eminent experts of the same power gathered, under blazing attention and the heavy gazes of countless strong ones.

At this moment, the entire group of the One Power force was at a complete loss whether what they saw was a dream or reality.

"Am I dreaming? Did Bi Huangfu actually win against Tufu? That unmatched Tufu, whom we dared not even look directly at?"

"It shouldn’t be your imagination, because I saw it too, but... this shouldn’t have happened!"

"It seems Lord Bi Huangfu really surpasses us too much, haha, we were even contemplating squeezing him out before."

The group of eminent experts from the One Power force, upon seeing Jia Yan return to the group’s ranks, were utterly at a loss as to where to place their hands and feet.

Especially those who had had verbal conflicts with Jia Yan didn’t know how to face him now, trembling in fear that Jia Yan would punish them.

It’s important to know that while ordinary civilians may not understand the difference between medium-talent strongmen and regular strongmen, as ’geniuses’, they were very aware. The gap between a true genius and them was like a chasm; even if they all teamed up, they couldn’t defeat Bi Huangfu before them.

"Bi, Bi Huangfu, congratulations on your victory and obtaining the pass to the Central Star Area."

Finally, it was Tang Tu, who was more composed, who said politely to Jia Yan as he approached.

"Hmm, thank you for your support these past days." Jia Yan nodded.

Because of Jia Yan’s appearance, the One Power force suddenly gained immense popularity among the surrounding forces.

It even spread to the Feiheng Force area, but since they were not within the same pass system, the level of popularity wasn’t as high.

Moreover, with Jia Yan slightly disguising his appearance, the leadership of the Feiheng Force, already in chaos due to the death of their Lord, only treated the news as mere gossip and soon forgot about it. No one noticed that the very prominent Bi Huangfu was indeed the one who killed their force’s Lord Bitan!

"Alright, the five of you who have obtained the passes, in a couple of days we will head to the Central Star Area. But before that, I want to tell you about the Central Star Area and the competition for Genius Battlefield tickets, so that you won’t waste your lives by misjudging the situation."

The day after obtaining the passes, a Semi-permanent Star Level expert from the Red Sky Martial Arts Hall gathered Jia Yan and the other four pass-holding eminent talents to the force’s Debate Hall for a debrief.

"Although it’s harsh, let me first tell you this: except for Bi Huangfu, the other four of you have no chance of competing for tickets to the Genius Battlefield, and even Bi Huangfu faces some danger."

"What?"

As soon as the Semi-permanent Star Level expert spoke, the four eminent talents, except for Jia Yan, almost exploded in disbelief.

They fought life and death, each carrying the hopes of all their force’s people, finally obtaining the passes, thinking they could make a stunning breakthrough in the Central Star Area, only to be told they had no chance from the start?!

Who could accept this!
