On the Eight Extremes Star, I awakened the twelve talismans.

Throughout the entire battle, Ye Han suppressed his power.

It wasn't a deliberate attempt to hide one's shortcomings, but rather a necessity to suppress them.

Since undergoing the grueling, relentless training method, the ox talisman's physique has simultaneously leaped several levels.

The so-called "not caring about one's life" means pushing one's body to the brink of collapse, activating the talisman's maximum power at the critical point closest to death, and then relying on the horse talisman's regenerative ability to tough it out.

Once the price is paid, the reward will naturally follow.

If he doesn't restrain himself, the force of his casual strike is enough to tear a planet apart.

That kind of destructive power would be a disaster on any inhabited planet.

Therefore, he fought very restrainedly on the ancient star, suppressing his power by several-tenths, and chose to end the match in a way that avoided attracting attention.

Take him away from here and finish the battle quickly. This way, we won't have to destroy the ancient star, and the onlookers won't be able to see his true strength.

Convenient and safe.

Even with such deliberate restraint, the result still exceeded everyone's expectations.

The medical ship slowly rose into the air and headed back towards the spacecraft.

The cabin erupted in chaos as everyone watched Ulu return.

Ye Han casually found a spot to rest. There was still some time before the end, so he decided to wait and see.

In one of the treatment rooms, three treatment pods are arranged side by side in the center of the room.

The pale green healing liquid glowed with a soft luminescence, enveloping the three of them in a hazy halo.

The injuries of the group are healing rapidly.

The battle situation outside was simultaneously projected into the treatment room, and all three of them saw the final outcome.

Uru descended from the sky and quickly rendered the Super Saiyan unable to fight.

Old Wang spoke first: "You two pinch me. No, never mind, I'm in the treatment pod."

"I just want to ask, was the Ulu we know replaced by someone else?"

"I've been thinking about that too," Xiaosha's voice followed, carrying a conflicted mix of laughter and tears. "Brother Ulu doesn't perform much better than us in training. He sometimes even holds us back, and he gets distracted all the time... cough."

She stopped the car just as she finished speaking, her gaze involuntarily glancing to the right.

Aquarius didn't care at all.

She suddenly felt as if she had never known this person before.

More than nine hundred years.

She has known Ulu for over nine hundred years.

From the time they were classmates in the fourth combat sequence on Planet Akuk, she knew that Uru had feelings for her, and his eyes always followed her.

Aquarius always took all of this for granted.

She was beautiful and talented, and from childhood to adulthood, she was never short of people who fawned over her. Ulu was just one of the most persistent among them.

He enjoys being admired, and sometimes, when he's bored, he'll deliberately give Ulu a little something sweet.

Before today, she never imagined that this man, whom she had used as a backup for over nine hundred years, actually possessed strength that could crush a Super Saiyan.

He defeated four opponents single-handedly and won decisively.

This kind of strength would make them invincible on Planet Akuk.

If Ulu wanted to be famous, he would have been famous long ago.

If he wanted to conquer her with his strength, he would have done so long ago.

But he didn't.

If it weren't for today's match, she might never have known his true strength.

Why?

This question had been lingering in Aquarius's mind, and no matter how much she thought about it, she still couldn't figure out the answer.

"Sister Aquarius, are you feeling unwell?" Xiao Sha called out tentatively when she noticed that Aquarius's complexion was off.

Through the transparent bulkhead, Xiao Sha saw that Aquarius's face was completely bloodless, her lips were tightly pressed together, and her eyes were staring blankly at the ceiling, like a statue that had lost its soul.

"It's nothing, it's good that Ulu won." Aquaris closed her eyes and turned her head to the other side.

Xiao Sha opened her mouth, wanting to say something comforting, but was stopped by a look from Lao Wang.

She shook her head and silently mouthed: Let her digest it herself.

Xiaosha nodded, seemingly understanding...

In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland.

The semi-finals continued on the ruins of the ancient star.

Many contestants focused their attention on Ye Han in the corner. Just now, Ye Han did not stop there because all his teammates had left.

He chose to continue competing as an individual, and after some urgent consultations, the competition committee surprisingly approved his request.

There are no explicit prohibitions in the rules regarding this situation.

Although the team battle format requires teams to register, there is no rule stating that if all team members are rendered unable to fight, the remaining person must automatically forfeit.

There are no restrictions, but there has never been such a precedent in history.

Because no one can face a full-strength opposing team alone to the end when all their teammates are eliminated.

At Ye Han's request, the competition committee agreed.

After several matches.

No one present dared to underestimate the Uru that Ye Han had transformed into.

Those voices that had previously mocked Planet Akuk as a second-rate fighting planet completely disappeared after the battle on the ancient planet.

As time went on, the number of teams in the finals gradually decreased.

In each round of the elimination tournament, Ye Han went on stage alone, facing a full squad of four opponents by himself.

Each time, he finished the match by just one level better than his opponent.

Not too much, not too little, just right.

This terrifying level of precise control is more chilling than mere crushing.

Overwhelming an opponent only shows that you are strong, but precise control shows that you are strong enough to have the leeway to consider how to control your strength during a fight.

In the final match, Ye Han's opponent was a dark horse team.

A crystallized race from a remote dwarf galaxy, this race is entirely composed of silicon-based crystals, and their body structure is completely different from that of carbon-based life forms.

Physical attacks are almost ineffective against them, and energy attacks are refracted and dispersed by their crystal lattice structure.

They fought their way into the finals.

After a fierce battle, Ye Han won first place single-handedly.

When his figure stood for the last time on the ruins of the ancient star battlefield, all the contestants on the spaceship simultaneously erupted in an unprecedented cheer.

Regardless of which planet he came from or whether he was famous before, at this moment, everyone was willing to applaud him.

The universe respects the strong; this rule has never changed since time immemorial.

As soon as the competition ended, before Titan's official award ceremony could even begin, a slender figure suddenly appeared in the void above the ancient star.

She was a Titan woman, and in appearance she was almost indistinguishable from a human.

The only distinguishing feature from humans is the long, thin horn on her forehead; this woman possesses an extraordinary aura.

He exuded an air of arrogance.

The noisy spaceship fell silent in an instant.

"It's Lord Pella," someone exclaimed in a low voice, their tone filled with undisguised awe.

"Her Majesty's personal attendant...why did she come in person?"

"Of course, the Queen has definitely been paying attention to a competition of this caliber for a long time. Haven't you heard that the news that Her Majesty the Queen will be watching the match in person has already spread?"

Pera stood in the void: "I am Pera, a subordinate of the Queen of Titan, and I have come here specifically to present this award. Ulu, step forward."
