Chapter 594: Chapter 595: Charge, Charge, Charge!!!
This situation had taken Ke Xiangnan by surprise.
In his mind, he had a clear idea of all his somewhat competitive rivals, and no matter how he calculated, he couldn’t include this obscure Wolfman among them.
Who the hell is this freak?!
Being able to overtake Ke Xiangnan at a distance of 100,000 kilometers was no easy feat.
Ke Xiangnan wasn’t the only one surprised; almost everyone present was taken aback.
Who is Ke Xiangnan? He was hailed as the number one genius in the New World during the Black Hole Period, boasting a Star Power of over 100,000. This number not only crushed all Black Hole Period martial artists but even overwhelmed most of those at the Star System Stage!
Even if someone could barely compare to Ke Xiangnan, it would still only be barely. Even Lin Zhen, who had made a brief appearance before, was no match for Ke Xiangnan.
However, now, when hundreds of top Black Hole Period martial artists collectively charged, Ke Xiangnan was actually left behind by a position, and it happened during the welcoming by the people of the Original World!
How is that possible?!
How can it be?!
Where does this leave the face of Ke Jianglong, the World King?
What will Elder Qin, who came from the Fire Kirin, think? Isn’t this a blatant slap in the face?
Some people went to observe the expressions of Elder Qin and Ke Jianglong, and sure enough, they saw both of them looking extremely angry, clearly vexed about this unexpected situation.
“Xiangdong! What the hell is going on? Who is this Wolf Clan kid? Why haven’t I heard you mention him before? Didn’t you say that after driving Lin Zhen away, no one here would threaten Xiangnan’s position?”
The sudden incident left Ke Xiangdong at a loss, too, not knowing what to say.
“This… I did investigate this. Everyone that poses a threat to Xiangnan is under my surveillance. This Wolfman… Who on earth is this Wolfman…?”
“You ask me, who do I ask?” Ke Jianglong roared angrily.
“Dad, don’t worry, I guess it’s just temporary. Some Black Hole Period martial artists may be deliberately hiding some of their strength, but no matter how much they hide, they can’t possibly be Xiangnan’s opponents. They are all overdrawing their Star Power, trying to overtake Xiangnan at the beginning, but in the late stage, they will run out of power, so don’t worry…”
“Let’s hope so!”
Ke Jianglong turned around and used this reason to explain the situation to Elder Qin.
Elder Qin had been getting along well with Ke Jianglong for years and had benefited quite a bit from Ke Jianglong. Elder Qin had also made great efforts in regards to Ke Xiangnan’s situation.
As far as he was concerned, Ke Xiangnan had to advance; everything was already prepared on the side of the Original World. If any trouble were to arise in the New World, it wouldn’t just be Ke Jianglong losing face, he would also lose face.
“Brother Qin, don’t worry. I know my son’s strength. His current Star Power has just reached 100,000, which fully meets the standard of advancing during Black Hole_period_over the Heavenly Gate. That Wolf Clan warrior is just temporarily overdrawing his Star Power to charge forward. In the late stage, he will surely fall.”
“Hmm, there must be no accidents; if there are any accidents, neither of us will be able to afford the loss of face.”
Elder Qin spoke solemnly.
Unlike those two, the martial artists around them were just there for the excitement, hoping for more commotion.
With such a grand show put on by Ke Xiangnan, even people from the Original World had been invited. If a big blunder were to occur, it would be absolutely spectacular.
These trouble-loving martial artists started cheering on their own.
“Go, Brother Wolf!”
“Brother Wolf, you’re amazing! We’re rooting for you!”
“Hahaha! You really give us ordinary martial artists a boost, a once-in-a-century surprise!”
“See? This is a hidden master among the people, usually low-key, but strikes when it’s time to strike, trampling the number one genius under his feet!”
Some martial artist even started singing loudly: “Strike when it’s time to strike, oh! Swiftly venturing through the universe! Hey ya, yi’er ya… hey hey yi’er ya!”
Actually, this song was from Earth, and over the years, Earth’s music had gained some fame in the universe, with some songs being sung among the people.
Even though many martial artists didn’t know the specifics of the song or the lyrics, it didn’t stop them from singing along loudly.
You can imagine the scene of Dragon Clan, Demon Clan, Human Clan, Mermaid Clan, Ghost Clan, and Stone Clan martial artists all singing ‘yi’er ya’ in unison.
Dragon’s roars and tiger’s howls might be pleasant to hear, and the siren’s singing voices are alright too, but those Demon Clan, Ghost Clan beast warriors, and Stone Clan were purely causing chaos. The entire area in front of Heavenly Gate was filled with wailing and howls.
The more uncomfortable it made Ke Jianglong and the other high-and-mighty World Kings, the more enjoyable it was for these ordinary martial artists. In their minds, the World Kings wouldn’t dare start a massacre at the Heavenly Gate, which showcased the martial artists’ hatred of the rich.
As expected, these songs made Ke Jianglong’s face look even worse, as the World King trembled in anger.
His eyes were glued to the big screen, which was now showing the progress of the first group.
There were only four people in the first group: Ke Xiangnan, the Wolf Clan warrior, and one participant each from the Dragon and Demon Clans.
These four had almost crossed 100,000 kilometers simultaneously, with the Wolf Clan warrior leading by two positions, followed by Ke Xiangnan, and the Dragon and Demon Clans side by side.
Not only were Ke Xiangnan and his competitors strong, there were also many martial artists here striving to excel and stand out. Among the vast cosmos, geniuses were never lacking!
Seeing that there were four people in the first group, the cheers below became even louder!
Sweat appeared on Ke Xiangnan’s forehead. The one-million-kilometer charge wasn’t a simple task. He had already figured out a specific number: 100,000 Star Power could definitely get through Heavenly Gate, but he had to reasonably allocate his Star Power. If he spent too much in the beginning, he might fail at the last moment.
He maintained a constant speed in his assault but didn’t expect to fall behind.
“I can’t panic! Absolutely not! These guys are all up to no good. They would rather exhaust themselves just to disrupt my rhythm. If I fall for their trap, those who can’t make it won’t lose anything, but my loss will be too great. Neither my family nor I can afford this loss!”
After so many years of cultivation, Ke Xiangnan had never been a mediocre martial artist. Since he had already decided on his strategy, he had to execute it resolutely.
So, even when he began to lag behind the Wolf Clan martial artist, Ke Xiangnan didn’t become impatient and continued to charge at his own pace.
Seeing this, Ke Jianglong and the others secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ke Xiangnan was wise not to fall into the enemy’s plot; otherwise, there could have been chaos today.
However, the other martial artists were somewhat disappointed because, in their eyes, Ke Xiangnan should be the first person to cross since he had the most Star Power, which was an indisputable fact.
But they still held hope. Ke Xiangnan could persevere for 100,000 kilometers, but what about 200,000? 300,000? 500,000?
If he was still lagging behind at 800,000 kilometers, then it would be hard for anyone to maintain their pace.
However, whether these challengers could reach 800,000 kilometers was doubtful.
The assault continued, and in a short time, they passed 300,000 kilometers!
At 300,000 kilometers, the rankings changed again, and the Demon Clan martial artist surprisingly took the first position!
“I know this Demon Clan warrior. He was third in his first charge, and his performance declined after that. I didn’t expect him to bounce back now. It seems he’s been hiding his true strength. How fierce!”
“Yeah, he’s already ahead by seven or eight positions.”
Close behind the Demon Clan warrior was the Dragon Clan warrior.
After the Dragon Clan was Ke Xiangnan, and the initial Wolf Clan martial artist fell to the fourth place, three positions behind Ke Xiangnan.
To others, the Wolf Clan martial artist seemed to have no competitive power left.
Only Zhu Lingshan was still paying attention to the Wolf Clan warrior. For some reason, she hoped that he could win.
“If only you were him….”
As 300,000 kilometers passed, Ke Xiangnan continued to maintain his rhythm. In his view, that mysterious Wolf Clan martial artist had exhausted his strength. He knew some about the Dragon Clan and the Demon Clan warriors and felt they wouldn’t be his opponents.
400,000 kilometers passed, and the rankings remained unchanged…
500,000 kilometers passed, and the rankings still hadn’t changed!
However, after 500,000 kilometers, the pressure increased significantly, and it was finally time to test the real strength of the martial artists.
Ke Xiangnan began to exert his strength!
It couldn’t be said that he was exerting his strength since his speed remained the same, but the others slowed down slightly.
The Demon Clan warrior and Dragon Clan warrior both led Ke Xiangnan by several dozen positions, but that was also their limit.
Their Star Power was originally less than 100,000, so they couldn’t get through Heavenly Gate. Their goal was to disrupt Ke Xiangnan’s rhythm. If they couldn’t make it, then everyone would fail together.
Anyway, they all had someone backing them up, so they weren’t afraid of Ke Xiangnan retaliating.
However, Ke Xiangnan’s unchanging speed at 500,000 kilometers ruined their plan.
By 600,000 kilometers, Ke Xiangnan had already caught up with the Dragon Clan warrior and ranked second.
At 700,000 kilometers, he was closing in on the Demon Clan warrior. He knew that the Demon Clan warrior was reaching his limit. Apart from him, no one here had more than 90,000 Star Power.
As expected, Ke Xiangnan’s unwavering speed became lightning fast in the late stage, and all the big screens began broadcasting his charge alone.
At 800,000 kilometers, he was neck and neck with the Demon Clan warrior!
At 850,000, he had left the Demon Clan behind. His strategy was successful and effective!
As the first one to pass 900,000 kilometers, Ke Xiangnan took the lead!
Ke Jianglong and Elder Qin celebrated with high fives.
“Well done, Old Ke! Your son is doing great! So impressive!”
“I have to thank Brother Qin for his help. After my son goes to the Original World, we’ll go back. This kid will need your help in the future!”
The two laughed loudly. The Demon Clan warrior and Dragon Clan warrior had already fallen behind and wouldn’t be able to pass through Heavenly Gate.
Just as they were about to turn around and leave, the big screen suddenly flashed, and the image of one person on it changed to two!
The originally last-placed Wolf Clan warrior surprisingly soared up like a rocket, attempting to overtake Ke Xiangnan in the final moments!
