The armor summoner will not be involved in the event

"Is that what you consider the strongest?"

Yan Di asked.

"The strongest..."

His consciousness was in a trance for a moment, but Yan Tian finally woke up and thought for a moment, then replied: "If you mean power, Yan Xing is not as good as Xing Tian. As for the entire Ming Realm, perhaps only the Emperor of Light can compare to him."

“Power? Only the Emperor of Light can compare to Xing Tian? Hehe, hehe, hahahaha——”

Emperor Yan laughed out loud.

"Yantian, do you still remember that we once discussed the definition of [the strongest]? It wasn't with Luo Cha, but something much earlier."

“…I have no recollection of it.”

"Yeah."

It was an expected answer, and Emperor Yan began to talk about the past.

……

"Hey, Yantian, you are the strongest leader in Yanxing's history, right?"

The still young and even somewhat plump Emperor ate compressed food provided by the army, looking at Yantian with big, longing eyes.

"Why do you ask?"

"The old man said that, apart from being the deputy leader of Yanxing, the leader who summons the Xingtian Armor must be the successor who defeats the old master and takes the position of leader. If that's the rule, I think you should be the [strongest]."

The emperor’s idea is very simple. If the new keeps defeating the old, then the newer will naturally be stronger.

Just like the Xingtian armor was originally said to be of very ancient style, but now it has been improved to a more technological style. The same is true for Feiying and King Kong.

"There are also examples where the leader died unexpectedly and the strongest of the remaining strong men were chosen to take over."

"Hmm... something that happened eight hundred or ninety years ago?"

"Nine hundred and eighty years ago."

Yantian corrected.

"So you've already caught up with him after all these years, right? So you're the strongest, right?"

"Adi, the strongest is definitely not just a matter of willpower and technique, nor can it be determined by armor."

"So what is considered the strongest?"

"If I have to say it, it's the determination to protect others, the self-proclaimed best technique, the confidence in the strongest armor, and the unrivaled desire for victory."

"Didn't you say that armor can't decide?"

"But it is also a kind of support. Xingtian, Feiying, and King Kong, these three sets of armor embody the hope of Yanxing since ancient times and the belief of the people that they are the strongest. As long as the summoner of the armor also believes that they are the strongest, then they are invincible. It is based on this principle that when Yanxing's armor was not as strong as it is now, countless martyrs were able to overcome numerous difficulties and defeat countless powerful enemies, allowing our civilization to develop to this day."

"I hope that future generations will no longer have to choose to fight to the death or even sacrifice their faith to fight to the death, which is meaningless. This is the determination to protect others."

"I have honed my skills countless times and have kept myself alive until now. I show my strength to my companions and enemies, and even use it to inspire my strongest spirit. This is what I call my best self-proclaimed skill."

"And human will is sacred and great in this world."

"I long for my own happiness and the happiness of others. What is necessary for this is victory, constant victory."

"There is victory and there is defeat. If you win, others lose, and if others win, you lose."

“Don’t think about win-win or lose-lose, think of it as something that only the strongest can achieve.”

"Because it is unique, we must fight for it. To do this, we need determination, skills, and armor."

Emperor looked at Yantian in confusion.

"Don't you understand?"

He patted the fat boy's head happily.

"Then don't think about it. Not everything needs to be figured out these days."

"If you don't want to understand, can you become the strongest?"

"Well... let's put it this way. I've barely touched the edge of being the strongest. If one day, you crush the strongest me with your own will, then I believe that from that moment on, you will be the strongest."

Maybe it was a comfort, or maybe it was perfunctory, anyway, Yantian did say so.

"You who have determination, skills, the armor of Xingtian, and a desire for victory?"

"Yes. By the way, why are you asking me this?"

"I seemed to have a dream in which I was fighting a terrible monster. The monster was really scary and I was very scared."

"So you want to become the strongest, so you don't have to be afraid of that monster?"

"No."

The emperor shook his head.

"At the end of the dream, I won but it seemed like I didn't win because I was crying the whole time."

"How old are you? Why are you still crying?"

Yantian smiled kindly.

"Then what do you think?"

"I think crying is embarrassing, so I don't want that to happen. But it would be terrible if I lost, so I thought if I became the strongest, then that wouldn't happen."

"Yes, you will."

Yantian touched the fat boy's head and said with a smile.

……

"…It's this matter. If it weren't for Yanxing's genetic technology that can enhance memory, I would have forgotten it completely."

After all, for Yantian, it was just a small incident that happened many years ago when Yan Di was still young and had just become interested in strength because of his mother who was a warrior.

"So I'm here to confirm with you whether you are the strongest you are right now."

It was as if purple lightning burst out from his eyes, and an invisible oppressive force even broke through Xingtian and was transmitted to Yantian.

"So what if it is? So what if it's not?"

He walked to the black box as if leisurely and crushed his goal.

The black and red Gan Qi lay quietly in the broken black box.

"No matter if I am the strongest now or not, you can never defeat me."

Gan Qi waved and the energy wave shattered another black box.

What is sealed in there is the forbidden data that allows Yanxing to research the evolution of Hell Fight and the power of time and space.

Emperor Yan had no intention of stopping it, he just stood there and watched.

The black box shattered, and there was nothing inside.

"what?!"

A voice of surprise sounded. Yantian never expected such a thing to happen.

"It takes three sets of armor summoners to unlock the seal without destroying the black box. Why is it so..."

"One of the developers who used the Diamond Armor installed a backdoor into his summoner."

Yan Di's explanation answered Yan Tian's doubts.

"He took that thing out and used it to create a genetic code that could add the ability of space-time force."

"Yan Gang?..."

There is no need to doubt the authenticity of this. In Yan Tian's eyes, Yan Gang is someone who can do such a thing, both in terms of talent and character.

"Then, I rejected his proposal to use the genetic code to increase the function of the Shura Summoner. I decided to kill him, seize the forbidden data, and directly input it into my Shura Summoner."

At some point, the white energy that had transformed into purple electric light no longer dissipated from the pure white energy crystal, and Yan Di opened his cell phone.

"Could it be that--you have completed the Hell Fight Evolution?! In such a short time?!"

"No, not really."

Yan Di shook his head in denial.

Just when Yan Tian breathed a sigh of relief, Yan Di's next words made him tense again.

"I have completed the true evolution of fighting - matching Luo Cha's talent with my desire."

"I thought that girl's hidden selfishness wouldn't allow her to accomplish something like that on the Flame Star... And, a true battle evolution? It's really hard to believe that something that the Flame Star had failed to accomplish for generations was accomplished by such a young child."

"In my own words, the ancestors of Yanxing stepped on the shoulders of their predecessors generation after generation. She had her own vision and climbed up directly on the heads of her predecessors, provided that the direction was correct."

"Huh, what an arrogant statement! If she believes that armor determines the strongest, shouldn't she come here and explain it to me in person right now?"

"She is coming."

"?"

Yantian didn't understand what Emperor Yan meant.

"Luo Cha."

The strongest challenger read out the name of his most trusted partner.

[The virtual armored beast, Purgatory Intelligent Brain, codenamed LISA, has been activated. ]

[High energy reaction detected, status is being confirmed. ]

[Confirmed, full energy, sufficient reserve energy for the Fighting Evolution, the summoner is in excellent condition, Fighting Evolution is recommended. ]

"That is……"

Fire, wind, thunder and dark activation key.

[Command authentication completed, Shura Armor's fierce battle evolution form, Hell Face Shura, combined. ]

……

Yang Weiwu let out a sigh of relief.

[You look very satisfied.]

"Because... I guess it fulfilled my wish to read Entei's own story. When I was young, I thought he was very strong but also very simple. He was poisoned, but he still fought against Xiaotian in this state. I am a little curious about his mental journey."

【Don’t you think this kind of mental journey would be boring? 】

"You can't judge a person's mental journey as boring so easily. After all, it's something that comes from the heart and is supported by one's own strength. You surprised me."

"Should I call you Luo Cha or LISA now?"

[It doesn’t matter.]

Shura Xia and Yang Weiwu sat together, looking at the picture on the screen.

[My true form was born because of Luo Cha's talent, and was determined because the two summoners poured their will into it before they died. Because the darkness of Xuan Yin forced me to pay the karma, I got myself instead. In the end, I don't know what I became. ]

"The one-eighth miracle of the Soul Fusion Technique could not be replicated? And did you absorb Xiaotian's will?"

[Luo Cha is not summoning people, right? 】

"Generally speaking, I don't consider armor developers as summoners, although Toei's Knights' Shed is not short of this type."

[To put it another way, Luo Cha and Yan Di's consciousness makes me lean towards their preferences and personalities. ]

"Like complaining?"

[I mean the desire to be strong and to have fun, and why have you become a spit-talker now? ]

"You are a complete complainer who would complain about something like this at a time like this."

【snort--】

The two fell into a brief silence, which was quickly broken by LISA.

[It's unexpected that you can accept the idea of ​​one consciousness and two souls.]

"This is the rule of the world. In my world, the soul is the carrier of consciousness, and the body is the carrier of the soul. Now that you know this, there is no need to get stuck in self-entanglement because of the truth that the consciousness of the armor world is the soul."

[So, are you sure that the "you who lost your memory" who lost your memory after the age of sixteen, rather than the "you in the past" who only had memories up to the age of sixteen, can defeat the real Xingtian? ]

"I am strong and I want to win. Yantian is also strong, but he was shaken because his opponent is Yandi. In this case, there is no reason for me to lose."

[…You know, I originally planned to arrange for three leaders to defeat one and give you a quarter of the highest authority.]
