Chapter 191 – This is all too fast!

Everyone had calmed down, suppressing their inner excitement as they stared at the television screen, breathing heavily, afraid that the white-robed youth would be defeated and lose to the 4th-Rank Giant from Wind Thunder City!

In the bar, the group of young people also fell silent. They turned off the colorful lights and switched on the main lights, illuminating the entire bar brightly.

Their expressions were tense. At this moment, the hopes of everyone in Ghost Mountain City undoubtedly rested on the white-robed figure alone.

Not only did it determine the life and death fate of tens of thousands of examinees from Ghost Mountain City, but it also carried the hopes of every person in Ghost Mountain City sitting in front of their televisions.

In the conference room of the City Lord’s mansion.

All the upper echelon dignitaries stood up, forgetting to take their seats, and watched intently.

In this situation, it was no longer about weighing gains and losses but about determining the honor and disgrace of Ghost Mountain City!

If this battle was won, the examinees of Ghost Mountain City, who had been stripped of their backbone, could instantly recover, their morale soaring even higher.

If it was lost, not only would the spirit of tens of thousands of Ghost Mountain City examinees be crushed, but Ghost Mountain City would likely be unable to hold its head high for the next three years!

Even if they went to other cities, they would probably be afraid to mention that they were from Ghost Mountain City. They would fear being ridiculed, and if others brought up this year’s Federation Grand Examination, they would have no way to refute it.

In the silence, one upper echelon dignitary spoke hoarsely, “I think this battle is precarious! He comes from the common folk. Although his promotion to a 4th-Rank Giant is a miracle, due to a lack of resources, his combat power in all aspects is likely not at perfection.

In contrast, the 4th-Rank Giant from Wind Thunder City comes from a great aristocratic family, with countless resources pooled together, forging combat power that has reached perfection. What does he have to compete with him?!”

His words left everyone in the conference room silent. Those present were all big shots who controlled vast resources, and they knew he was right!

An expert forged with countless resources was absolutely flawless! Not comparable to a wild expert!

There had been precedents of 4th-Rank Giants emerging from the common folk, but without exception, these common-born giants were slightly inferior in combat power compared to 4th-Rank Giants from great aristocratic families.

This was unavoidable!

If they faced off head-on, the outcome would likely be death!

Lan Tingxu’s gaze was gloomy as he frowned and said, “Let’s just watch. Perhaps there will be a miracle.”

In this conference room, he was the one who most hoped for Ye Sheng’s victory, as it was tied to his political achievements.

If Ye Sheng could lead Ghost Mountain City forward and advance to the next round, it would undoubtedly solve an enormous problem for him.

In the Lu family living room, everyone’s breathing was somewhat heavy, and they all understood the importance of this battle.

All their hopes rested on their nephew.

Lu Shushan also fell silent, his gaze fixed intently on Ye Sheng’s figure on the television screen.

…

“Giant, crush him!” On the battlefield, Lei Meng sneered, making a request to the 4th-Rank Giant from Wind Thunder City. He couldn’t stand to see a 4th-Rank Giant from the common folk so spirited.

If you hadn’t joined this commotion, it would have been fine, but since you did, you’re just asking for death. Don’t blame others.

“He’s just from the common folk. His combat power definitely can’t match yours.” Lei Meng looked up, smiling at the 4th-Rank Giant from Wind Thunder City in the sky, who resembled a heavenly deity.

Around the 4th-Rank Giant from Wind Thunder City, over a hundred thousand examinees from Wind Thunder City had regrouped, looking coldly down at the white-robed figure below.

They were equally confident that as long as their own giant was present, Ghost Mountain City wouldn’t be able to stir up any trouble.

“Crush him!”

“Crush him…”

Over a hundred thousand examinees from Fenglei City shouted in unison, the sound of war drums thundering as special Classes stacked encouragement Amplifications, reigniting the morale of Fenglei City’s hundred thousand examinees! They remained the invincible Fenglei City!

Faced with this scene, the remaining tens of thousands of examinees from Ghost Mountain City turned their gaze to Ye Sheng, placing all their hopes on him.

Only Xu Xingchen and his group sneered coldly from the very beginning.

Not to mention just one Fenglei City Giant, even if a thousand more Fenglei City Giants came, they would be no match for Ye Sheng alone.

Especially the dozen or so Prodigies from the Xu family, who had personally witnessed the shocking scene of Ye Sheng single-handedly suppressing a city of over a hundred thousand people!

This small scene before them was nothing at all.

…

Ye Sheng moved!

Under everyone’s gaze, he walked toward the Fenglei City 4th-Turn Giant as if strolling through his own Rear Garden, treating the hundred thousand people of Fenglei City as nothing.

“You’re looking for death!” The Fenglei City 4th-Turn Giant looked down at Ye Sheng and said indifferently.

Ever since learning that Ye Sheng came from the common folk, a hint of contempt had risen in his heart.

Compared to a perfect Combat Power Giant like him, forged with countless Resources, a common folk Giant would crumble at the slightest touch—nothing but a flashy facade.

But the next second, he was dumbfounded!

Ye Sheng arrived before him and, without the slightest hint of exertion, slapped him with a palm.

This palm shone with golden radiance, utilizing the energy resonance method of the Diamond Demon-Subduing Sword. Though it appeared ordinary, its hidden power had already reached the level of a High-Tier Giant.

Boom!

The Fenglei City Giant also struck out with a palm—his long-famous ‘Fusion Skill,’ created by blending seventy-two palm Skills into one, which had helped him break through to the 4th-Turn Giant level.

Yet, this very palm dissolved like foam upon contact with Ye Sheng’s golden palm.

“Impossible!” The Fenglei City Giant’s eyes widened so much they nearly popped out. His chest was directly struck by Ye Sheng’s palm, and with a crack, it caved in. He spat out a mouthful of blood.

With that mouthful of blood, the Fenglei City Giant’s vitality was instantly drained. His head drooped, and his body began to plummet toward the ground below.

Ye Sheng grabbed him by the collar, hoisting him upside down in the air, then turned his indifferent gaze toward the hundred thousand bewildered Fenglei City examinees around him.

“Wh-what just happened?!” The hundred thousand Fenglei City examinees were stunned, staring at their own Giant dangling upside down in Ye Sheng’s hand.

It all happened too fast!

From Ye Sheng stepping forward to slapping their Giant unconscious, not even a second had passed.

Most importantly, Ye Sheng made it look so effortless!

With just one palm, he had knocked out a 4th-Turn Giant.

That was a 4th-Turn Giant! How could it be so casual?

It was just like a disobedient child at home being disciplined by their Lord, then lifted by the collar.

It wasn’t just the Fenglei City examinees who were stunned. Aside from Xu Xingchen and his group, who remained relatively calm, almost everyone else was dumbfounded, staring blankly at the scene!

Who could have imagined that a 4th-Turn Giant could be dealt with so easily, as if it were child’s play?!

In Ghost Mountain City, the two hosts in the television studio had just been hyping up the atmosphere, talking about how difficult this battle would be, but the next second, they fell silent!

The entire broadcast hall fell into an Aberration-like quiet.

Teahouses, bars… and every household in Ghost Mountain City fell silent at this moment, all staring dumbfounded at the scene.

On the television screen, a figure in white robes hovered in mid-air, holding a 4th Revolution Giant Tier upside down by the hand.
