Behind-the-scenes video of the beginning of Honkai.

Tesla: "Pfft~ Hahahaha... Well done, well done!"

Upon seeing Otto trapped inside the wall, Dr. Tesla couldn't help but laugh.

Einstein: "Dr. Tesla, how could you do this?! Let's not even talk about how we've received professional training, and Otto is the Archbishop of Schicksal, how could we make fun of him like this! Pfft... Hahaha, I can't help it either."

Otto, on the other hand, was trying to calm his frustration. He wasn't angry; he was just Otto from a parallel world. What did it have to do with him, the Archbishop of Destiny?

The second match is about to begin, and it's time for Bronya and Kiana to battle it out.

The battle entered a fierce stage right from the start, and if nothing unexpected happens, it will be another rare protracted war. However, Kiana has gained a slight advantage by taking advantage of the superhuman strength in the Kaslana family bloodline.

But Bronya wasn't about to let the game end so easily.

"Full power!"

A blue pattern flashed in the girl's eyes, and she instantly entered the Herrscher of Reason state. Countless rackets and ping-pong balls appeared from the void and flew towards Kiana, leaving Kiana completely unable to defend herself.

However, these days, it's hard to call yourself a student of St. Freya Academy if you're not a Herrscher!

Therefore, Kiana immediately used the power of the Herrscher of the Void that she had mastered after many trials, swallowing all the oncoming ping-pong balls into the imaginary space and then reflecting them back.

This caused what was supposed to be a serious table tennis match to turn into a performance show by the two Lawyers.

"Round Two!"

Bronya suddenly created a ping-pong machine gun, and the ping-pong balls shot towards Kiana like bullets.

"Bronya, you think I'm afraid of you!"

Kiana directly covered the entire surrounding area with imaginary space, catching all the ping-pong balls and reflecting them back.

"Here you go!"

On this table, which resembled a battlefield in Syria, our poor referee, Bishop Otto, was caught in the middle and relentlessly slapped, his face swelling up from the repeated blows, and no one seemed to care about him.

Waaaaah, so pitiful! (Yae no Miko: Someone has infringed on my copyright!)

Chapter 178 Fu Hua, the Muscular Warrior, with Strength That Can Uproot Mountains and Aura That Can Overwhelm the World!

Welt: "That's not how the power of the Herrscher of Reason is used... but it doesn't seem impossible..."

Bronya: "In order to win, changes can be made at crucial moments."

Einstein: "Indeed, I agree with Bronya's words. Leader, you also need to learn to be more flexible."

Tesla: "These people from different timelines are just too outrageous."

Otto: "Shouldn't you guys be concerned about me? My face is swollen and I have a huge bump on my head!"

Faced with the surging ping-pong ball, Kiana could only use her Herrscher of the Void powers, but she still couldn't determine a winner. At this moment, Kiana had a sudden inspiration and took out a ping-pong ball from somewhere, drew on it, and then hit it.

As Bronya dismissively prepared to return the weak ball, her eyes caught sight of the pattern on the ping-pong ball.

Above was Seele's smiling face. Bronya, who loved Seele dearly, decisively gave up the match and grabbed the ping-pong ball.

As the saying goes, even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman; this is probably a perfect example.

It's true that Bronya wouldn't lay a hand on Seele, not even on a ping-pong ball with her image on it.

Finally, Bishop Otto, his face bruised and swollen, reluctantly declared Kiana the victor.

"Holy crap! Kiana can actually use her brain! This is impossible!"

Saint Freya and the others watching from the sidelines were all amazed and incredulous at the sight.

I never expected Kiana to be so cunning. It's so unlike Kiana's usual style. What kind of growth did she go through to develop such wisdom?

Bronya: "Kiana, you're despicable! You actually used such methods."

Kiana: "All's fair in war, hahaha, Bronya, let's see if you dare call me an idiot again!"

Seele: "Bronya, so touching!"

Bronya: "Seele! How are you now? Are you alright? Bronya will definitely save you!"

Seele: "I'm fine. I'm right next to Mr. Kevin now. Although Mr. Kevin seems cold, he's nice to me. I'm fine now!"

Alicia (Memory): "Oh! Kevin, you're out taking care of a child? You're still as gentle as ever. Judging from her voice, she must be a very cute girl. When are you going to bring her over for me to see?"

Kevin: "Yes..."

Kosmo (Memory): "Great!" (Kevin, who takes care of children, is a good person.)

Barbara: "So this is ping-pong in another world? It looks really interesting. Barbara wants to play."

Barbara never imagined there were such fun entertainment activities in the world. She fell in love with the ping-pong ball the moment she saw it.

Qin: "It doesn't seem too complicated. I can hand it over to the craftsmen to make a few sets later."

Barbara: "Really? Thank you so much, Leader Jean!"

This way, many children in Mondstadt will have something to play with, and perhaps ping-pong will become popular throughout the city. This otherworldly way of playing will create a wave in the free city of Mondstadt. It'll definitely be very interesting!

Wendy: "Hey, it's already booked? Then let's leave it to Jean and the Knights of Favonius. I want to play too!"

Zhongli: "Wendy (Barbatos), get down to business!" (After all, he couldn't reveal his old friend's identity.)

Keqing: "So... is Liyue going to hold a ping-pong tournament too?"

Ningguang: "Of course, although I don't know if it will become popular in Liyue, it should be pretty good. I can already smell Mora's presence."

Zhongli: "I see, an activity to improve the physical fitness of the people?"

Nodding, Grandpa Morax thought it would be good to hold one in Liyue, as it would make it easier for him to experience human feelings.

Entertainment, physical fitness, and making money—all at the same time, why not?

General Raiden: "In that case, we want Inazuma too!"

With Mondstadt and Liyue already here, how can General Thunder sit idly by and wait to die?

Such a fierce struggle, such an intense competition, isn't it even more arduous than the daily training of samurai? They, Inazuma, will use ping-pong to enrich the country and strengthen the military!

After seeing that the Three Kingdoms had all started holding such table tennis events, the God of Fire, the God of Water, and the God of Ice also ordered their subordinates to make preparations.

Naxi Da: "..."

Meanwhile, in Sumeru, Nasita saw that other countries were preparing for table tennis, but she couldn't do anything about it. After all, compared to the other six countries, the scholars in Sumeru looked down on such competitions, believing that it was a sport for ordinary students. They thought it would be better to write more papers than to waste time on this.

Even if there were some who were clear-headed, the suggestion was directly rejected because the highest authority over Sumeru is the Order of the Church.

"what do I do……"

Finally, the match in the video came to its final game.

This time, Kiana's opponent has become the heavyweight Fu Hua, who is also the final boss she wants to defeat.

On the court, Fu Hua simply stood there, exuding a powerful sense of pressure. Her taut muscles and gloomy eyes made it hard not to wonder whether she was there to play basketball or to "play on Earth".

"Kiana, admit defeat, you are no match for me!"

"That's not necessarily true, class monitor!"

Kiana, who bears the mission of saving the world, will not fall here.

Game start.

Kiana served first again, and Fu Hua smashed the ball back with her racket. Every time it hit the table, it felt like an earthquake.

As cracks appeared on the pool table, the entire ground began to shake.

Each flying ping-pong ball felt like a mountain crashing into Kiana, forcing her to adopt a defensive stance and struggle to hold on.

"To defeat the Honkai, Kiana, witness my ultimate move that I've honed!"

"Ah! (The bug is completely bewildered)"

Then, to everyone's astonishment, Kiana witnessed Fu Hua's ultimate move: clothing rip!

In the video, Fu Hua suddenly bursts out of her clothes, her arms instantly revealing powerful muscles, turning her into a giant. With a smash, she actually smashed the pool table to pieces!

A ping-pong ball carrying terrifying power flew towards Kiana's face. In the mere fraction of a second that death was imminent, a red feather drifted down into Kiana's heart.

Kiana activated the Void Sword Heart, using the ultimate move of the anime protagonist, the Power of the Mind, to spin the ball back.

Fu Hua unleashed another ferocious smash, a strike that pierced through the stars! (This was the true meaning of "piercing through the stars"!)

It blasted a hole right through the Earth, and Siegfried, who was still squatting on the toilet, was also unfortunate enough to suffer an undeserved disaster.

The pain was mixed with a hint of relief, suggesting that the injury was fatal.

"Just a minor fatal wound!"

However, Siegfried, despite the pain, removed the ping-pong ball from the spot, and then collapsed due to excessive bleeding.

Because Fu Hua's ball went out of bounds, Kiana successfully won three matches, corrected the wrong world line, and the energy on her leg ring instantly increased by one bar, meaning she successfully saved the world.

Kiana then entered the portal and traveled to the next world to continue her adventures and battles.

Chapter 179 Crouching Dragon and Young Phoenix, Otto Kevin

Siegfried: "Immortal, do we have a grudge? I was sitting perfectly fine on the toilet, and you sent me flying with that ping-pong ball, and... it hit me right there!"

Fu Hua: "I don't know, I'm sorry, but this muscular me... it's cracking!"

Xiao Shi: "Old fogey, it's just playing ball, is it really that big of a deal? Hahaha... You almost made me die laughing! Hahaha."

Xiao Shi was so amused by Fu Hua's muscular appearance that he fell to the ground, almost choking on his own breath.

After all, it was just a game of ping-pong, but this old-fashioned guy used every trick in the book and even delivered a fatal blow to Siegfried on the other side of Earth.

Kiana: "Ugh!!! What kind of ridiculous plot is this? Why did a simple ping-pong game end up tearing through the Earth? But the class president is really amazing!"

Kosmo (Memory): "Cool! (Those muscles are so cool!)"

Kevin (Memory): "(I can't quite look at Hua directly)"

Kevin: "..."

Hua (Memory): "This art style is so hilarious, there's even more grass than in the Hundred Herbs Garden."

Alicia (Memory): "Hua's muscular form has a unique charm, kind of cute. I'm really looking forward to my new look!"

Hua (Memory): "This is not cute at all; it's clearly ruining my image."
