When a person is in a high-ranking position, their words carry the law.

Chapter 47 Victory or defeat is not only on the chessboard

"A rain of swords flew."

With a soft shout, Xi Yuheng unleashed a flurry of sword light, deflecting his opponent's longsword and sending it hurtling towards his chest with a sharp trajectory.

His opponent was completely unable to defend himself, and upon seeing this, he simply closed his eyes and accepted defeat.

Unexpectedly, the sword light suddenly stopped, and the flying sword hovered quietly in front of his heart. Xi Yuheng smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your concession!"

He then pointed his sword and the flying sword automatically went back into its sheath.

His humble personality and elegant swordsmanship drew cheers from the audience like a tsunami.

"That's easy to fake."

Bai Ze leaned back upon seeing it, confirming that it was a stand-in of the same type as himself.

It's not that I'm pretentious, but the degree of feedback for pretentiousness mainly depends on one's appearance.

Even if a goblin tries to act cool, it won't be able to be suave. On the other hand, a handsome guy, even if he has a cold face the whole time, still has fans defending him and shouting that our Geigei is actually very hardworking.

Take Xi Yuheng for example, his fan base is comparable to Xiao Geigei's from my previous life.

Like Bai Ze, they are people who can make a living based on their looks.

[King of Verbal Confidence]: How about it, a formidable opponent, isn't he?

[Night Rain Sounds]: He's completely crushed me. The only reason he's been able to fight this far is because Xi Yuheng is putting on a show. He's really impressive. But that's just in terms of martial arts. In terms of looks, he's definitely no match for me.

After all, Bai Ze has now transcended the mortal realm and is now the immortal Bai Ze.

Xi Yuheng is no match for him.

【King of Verbal Confidence】: [Pfft] You're quite confident, come on, show us a picture.

[Night Rain's Annoying Sound]: Don't you know what I look like? You were the one who chose my martial arts skills, and after the first match today, I was completely exposed. Now, you should post your picture!
Bai Ze's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and suddenly he uttered a sentence that directly exposed the true face of the king of verbal sparring.

The martial arts techniques he exchanged were all suggested by the "Mouthful King". The relationship between Bai Ze and Ye Yushengfan could be kept secret from others, but not from the "Mouthful King".

Since that's the case, to be fair, Bai Ze felt he should also know the true face of the "King of Mouths".

'Hmm... I hope it's not an old man or woman, but a real Wang Yuyan from another world.' Bai Ze prayed in his heart.

[King of Verbal Mastery]: I originally wanted to post a picture, but after seeing your beauty, I suddenly lost all confidence. You are so beautiful, how can my verbal skills compare to yours?

[King of Verbal Criticism]: So let's talk about your next opponent. The schedule should be out by now.

Xi Yuheng's performance was purely for show. Once he's finished, the rest of the matches should be over, and the schedule for the next match should be announced.

With the StarNet network handling the arrangements, eliminating manual processes and various procedures, the schedule should be available very soon.

Seeing that the verbal king was changing the subject, Bai Ze could only temporarily put aside his plan to expose the other party's true colors and reached out to check the match schedule.

The schedule for the next match has indeed been finalized, and as for the opponent...

【Night Rain Sounds Annoying】: Kim Jung-jae... I never thought I'd actually run into the Slu people.

The people of the Slug Autonomous Oblast are known for their lack of martial ethics, and their lack of martial ethics is very different from that of other people.

While others may lack martial ethics and resort to underhanded tactics or verbal attacks, the Slu people are particularly fond of unorthodox methods. They believe that victory or defeat lies not only on the chessboard but also off it.

[King of Mouth]: There are only two Slugs in total, and you managed to run into one in the second round. Did you not wash your hands after using the toilet? You've run into a plague.

Then, half a minute later, the "King of Mouths" sent a video.

Bai Ze clicked on it and saw that it was a video of Kim Jung-jae's first ring battle.

Kim Jung-jae, male, eighteen years old, not bad looking.

Because the Slug Autonomous Region has made great achievements in facial plastic surgery, almost all famous people there are not ugly, they may just be a little effeminate.

The same goes for Kim Jong-jae.

However, his performance on the stage was completely opposite to his effeminate appearance. His leg techniques were fierce and domineering, and with his strong attacks, he ended the fight in less than ten seconds.

[King of Verbal Confidence]: So, what's up? Have you noticed anything?
Bai Ze frowned as he watched the video, then looked at the message sent by the "King of Mouths".

Judging from the video, Kim Jung-jae's moves are fierce and violent, like a storm, and look similar to Bai Ze's "Qi Guan Chang Hong" technique.

However, compared to Bai Ze, Kim Jung-jae was even more ferocious.

He even ignored the opponent's attacks and launched a fierce counterattack in a way that resulted in mutual destruction.

[Night Rain Sounds]: The attack is too fierce, even fiercer than "Qi Piercing the Rainbow," which is abnormal. Furthermore, he was attacked by his opponent several times, but he seemed completely unaffected. However, judging from his appearance, he doesn't seem to be a martial artist proficient in hard skills.

Unless one takes some kind of miraculous medicine that transforms their body, all physical martial arts require constant practice and refinement, even those that rely on internal cultivation.

Therefore, at most only two-star martial artists will appear in this competition.

Because the second-star realm requires internal and external cultivation to strengthen the body, at the age of eighteen, even with abundant resources and extraordinary talent, it is basically impossible to break through to the second star.

Kim Jung-jae showed no signs of body tempering, yet he was able to ignore the opponent's punches and kicks and retaliate, which was clearly abnormal.

Either Kim Jong-jae is an awakened being, or...
[Night Rain Sounds]: Could the Slu people be cheating again?
[King of Mouths]: To call it cheating wouldn't be accurate. If I'm not mistaken, Kim Jung-jae seems to have completely blocked out pain and used forbidden techniques that exploit his body. Since he's on the StarNet, even if his body dies, it doesn't matter. And because he can't feel pain, he's not afraid of the forbidden techniques being interrupted by pain, and he can ignore injuries that don't affect his movements.

【Night Rain Sounds Annoying】: A person without pain?
[The King of Mouths]: It's not that he's born without pain, but rather that his mental perception of pain is temporarily blocked while using the Star Network. While the absence of pain may seem advantageous in combat, it's actually detrimental to a martial artist.

However, StarNet tournaments do not have relevant rules in this regard.

Even in real-world competitions, if you're willing to sacrifice your future, erase the pain, and use prohibited laws to exploit your body, the organizers and your opponents can't stop you.

That's why the most outspoken critics say it doesn't count as cheating.

But to say there was no cheating doesn't seem quite right.

Because on the StarNet, all losses can be refreshed. We are all people of the Bitter Realm, and we can be resurrected after death, let alone the damage caused by physical exploitation.

Kim Jong-jae's actions were undoubtedly unfair to others.

【Night Rain Sounds Annoying】: Tsk, that's quite something.

Although "Qi Guan Chang Hong" is powerful, it is still far inferior to those forbidden techniques that exploit the body and even life. This time, it has encountered a formidable enemy.

[King of Verbal Confidence]: You've got a knack for that, but luckily I have one too. Hey bro, wanna try some of those amazing gadgets? [Evil grin.jpg]
