No strange things are allowed to evolve!

This is exactly what he urgently wants to know: what methods did the other party use to level up even faster than his flawless upgrade?

But before that, he needs to figure out one thing.

Since you all think it's understandable that I lost after seeing his performance, why are you laughing at me?

That's what he thought, and that's why he asked the question.

Then he received an answer that made him not want to stay there for even a second longer.

"Let's laugh... mainly for another reason."

My friend was barely suppressing a smile.

"Everyone loses sometimes, but you...you're the first one who's ever been paired with a monster."

Finally, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Jiang Bei stood there, stunned.

It was at this moment that Jiang Shu appeared.

He stayed a few days longer than Jiangbei, so he also had to leave a little later than Jiangbei.

According to Jiang Bei's original plan, he should have been able to find out what happened inside before Jiang Shu came out, so that he could decide how to face Jiang Shu.

Is Jiang Shu a suitable opponent, the target of the next revenge, or is the gap between them too large, so there's no need to make things difficult for him, or is it just that the other party got lucky and only defeated him by chance?

Choosing different diplomatic approaches based on different conditions is one of the reasons why Jiangbei is so successful in the final arena, a place teeming with powerful figures.

Therefore, logically speaking, the timing of Jiang Shu's emergence was not ideal for Jiangbei, because he had not yet had time to figure out the situation.

However, plans can never keep up with changes.

Now that the situation has changed, Jiang Shu's appearance has become perfectly timed.

This was like a pardon for Jiangbei, who was at a loss for what to do in this awkward situation.

At this point, he couldn't care less about anything else; all he knew was that he had to do something to distract everyone and hopefully make them forget about the whole thing.

So, just as Jiang Shu emerged from the hatchery and seemed lost in thought about something, he came directly to Jiang Shu.

"I admit defeat this time, but I'll win next time!"

His eyes were filled with determination, as if he were truly issuing a challenge to Jiang Shu, rather than trying to hide anything.

This successfully intimidated Jiang Shu.

So he was somewhat surprised.

During a match, can't people outside see what's going on?

So why are you still so confident even though you can clearly see the gap between us?

Could this guy be Ironhead?

It's best to stay away from this kind of reckless person if you think about it carefully.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shu nodded perfunctorily, making some "uh-huh" sounds.

Then, his thoughts gradually returned from the hatchery, and he fell into deep thought.

He had been in the incubator for so long that what was just one night for the onlookers had been more than two months for him.

To be honest, I've almost forgotten what I came here for.

At the same time, Jiang Bei noticed Jiang Shu's disdain and questioned him with some dissatisfaction, "What do you mean by this? Are you looking down on me?"

Jiang Shu scratched his head.

"Excuse me, before I answer you, could someone describe what your first impression of me was?"

Everyone was taken aback.

Some people started answering instinctively.

"Arrogant and conceited."

"Arrogant and overbearing."

"Being kicked like a dog."

Listening to these negative comments, Jiang Shu gradually remembered everything.

It turns out that in their eyes I am Jiahao.

Then he remembered his purpose for coming here and the persona he was trying to establish.

"Hehe." He chuckled lightly. "It's not that I look down on you, it's just that I think you're pretty average. To be honest, if the final round is all like this, it's really not very interesting."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Shu clearly felt the gazes around him turn hostile.

"you..."

Although Jiang Bei couldn't refute Jiang Shu's assessment of him—after all, he had indeed lost and had to some extent acknowledge Jiang Shu's assessment—Jiang Shu's words were still hard for him to accept.

This further reinforced the stereotypes people had about Jiang Shu.

Sure enough, you can't let this kind of person taste success.

You can beat him countless times, but if he beats you even once, you're finished. You'll be nailed to the pillar of shame for the rest of your life.

Because Jiang Shu's words were essentially a sweeping generalization, some people who were just watching the show and not actually part of Jiang Bei's group were also dragged into the fray, which made them unable to resist joining in as well.

Someone immediately frowned and said, "I admit you have some ability and methods, but to be frank, you're just taking shortcuts. That's how you managed to find a new solution. What you did, anyone else could have done as well."

"Can it really be done?" Jiang Shu asked with a smile. "Since everyone here can do it, why was I the one who discovered this path first? This incubator has been around for quite a while, hasn't it?"

"This..." The man was speechless for a moment.

At this moment, another person joined the battle, and he sneered: "The hatchery is full of all sorts of possibilities, so how dare you say that this is the most efficient way to conquer it?"

"You're quite amusing." Jiang Shu shrugged. "I never said that this was the most efficient method. You're just accusing me of something. And even if you think there's a more efficient method, then go ahead and find it. I'm a stickler for logic, and I can't accept your approach of denying my victory without any real evidence, just by talking."

"Uh..." This person also gave up.

Following them, several other people stood up to criticize Jiang Shu, attempting to uphold the dignity of the final arena.

But Jiang Shu quickly shut them down with a few words.

When it comes to empty talk, Jiang Shu has never been afraid of anyone.

What's it like working for the Director of the Bureau of Unification?

You'd better shut your mouth even if you're speechless in front of me!

Therefore, in the end, everyone's criticism of Jiang Shu could only be limited to his character.

However, ginger bundles are still not selectable.

"Young people shouldn't be so hot-blooded!"

"Are you still called a young man if you are not angry?"

"I've never seen anyone as arrogant as you."

"Oh! So you've met him today."

Those who were just watching the spectacle eventually became part of the excitement themselves, their emotions completely stirred up by Jiang Shu.

Almost everyone found it unacceptable that in my vast final arena, which boasts the highest standards of the incubation arena and a lineup of all-star players of the highest caliber, not a single person could suppress his arrogant arrogance.

That really won't work.

The Confrontation Hatchery is a place where strength speaks volumes. Jiang Shu had just won a match and was riding high, so he could stand there swaggering around like a victor, showing off his arrogance.

To suppress him would require abandoning all reason and directly denying his victory, but no one would do such a thing. Moreover, doing so would be tantamount to disrespecting the authority of the final arena.

There's only one way left.

That is to continue fighting, constantly sending men to fight Jiang Shubi, until he is pinned down and killed.

But this raises another question.

Who should go?

If we let the higher-level fighters make their move from the start, wouldn't that be tantamount to saying that the lower-level and mid-level fighters are no match for Jiang Shu? Wouldn't that be a slap in our own face?

Moreover, not only would doing so be humiliating, but it's also questionable whether those arrogant high-ranking individuals would even be willing to intervene.

But what if we keep letting lower-level fighters take the lead and things go wrong again?

They lacked sufficient material to assess Jiang Shu's strength, and neither Jiang Shu nor Jiang Bei had been able to utilize their spiritual root characteristics in this incubation ground.

Or to be more precise, Jiang Shu performed well, but no one knew it.

In short, they couldn't be sure whether Jiang Shu was just lucky and triggered the hidden conditions to unlock the hero route, or whether Jiang Shu actually possessed the corresponding strength.

The more people Jiang Shu loses to, the less respect they can show to their side, which is definitely not what they want to see.

After much deliberation, everyone focused their attention on one person, intending to have him take on the important task of defeating Jiang Shu.

The reason why everyone chose him was very simple.

He had just fallen from his previous position after failing to challenge a high-level opponent. He possessed the strength of an upper-middle-level opponent and could exchange a few blows with high-level opponents.

However, Jiang Shu was unaware of this, so everyone could take advantage of this information gap to tell Jiang Shu that his opponent was someone similar to Jiang Bei, since their current scores were indeed quite close.

Once Jiang Shu loses, won't everyone regain their pride?

In addition, those who have read Jiang Shu's strategy also feel that this person is very effective at countering Jiang Shu.

This person, named Melatonin, is skilled in hypnosis and can easily discern people's hearts through various details and clues. In their view, this is very similar to the methods of Jiang Shu, the "connection expert." Therefore, if there is anything that Jiang Shu can do, he can definitely do it too.

As the saying goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated." Jiang Shu did not understand him, but he understood Jiang Shu and could think about problems in a similar way, thus anticipating Jiang Shu's actions in advance. Coupled with his strength that did not match his status, what reason did he have not to win?

To be even safer, you could choose an incubator that he's good at, which would truly give him all the advantages.

Although it was somewhat despicable, the only way to deal with such a shameless person was to use magic to defeat magic, and there was no room for remorse... The group silently thought to themselves, trying to justify their scheme against Jiang Shu and mentally preparing themselves.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Melatonin, though somewhat reluctant, still stepped forward.

He knew that he was no match for those high-ranking individuals at the top of the food chain in the ultimate arena, and he didn't yet have the right to do as he pleased. If he didn't take it seriously, he might be isolated.

Helpless, he could only say to Jiang Shu, "Then... shall I have a match with you?"

"You?" Jiang Shu looked him up and down. "And what level are you in?"

"Me?" Melatonin smiled. "I'm also in the lower tier, but slightly higher than Jiangbei."

"Who is Jiangbei?" Jiang Shu asked, puzzled.

"Me!" Jiang Bei roared angrily, "You beat me, and you still said such hurtful things to me, but you don't even know who I am?!"

"Oh." Jiang Shu remained arrogant: "I have no interest in the names of my defeated opponents."

After saying that, he looked at melatonin and said, "So if you want to introduce yourself, you can skip it. I only care about how many points you can lose to me, not who you are."

Even melatonin, which was initially reluctant to get involved in this mess, couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Such words are really provoking hatred.

However, Melatonin suppressed her anger and decided to save her harsh words for later: "Then... let's keep the same stakes as Jiangbei's?"

“Okay.” Jiang Shu nodded, “But it will have to be tomorrow. It’s getting late today, and I have some things to do, so I have to go now.”

“No problem.” Melatonin nodded: “I’m here every day, so see you tomorrow.”

"Ah."

After agreeing on the match for tomorrow, Jiang Shu left in a hurry, as if he had something important to do.

However, they weren't concerned about what happened to Jiang Shu; what they were more concerned about was whether melatonin could help them get back at him.

So as soon as Jiang Shu disappeared, everyone gathered around him, asking for his opinion on melatonin and cheering him on.

I'll do my best.

Faced with everyone's high expectations, melatonin did not make any overly confident statements.

However, his eyes still revealed confidence, proving that he was absolutely certain.

Regardless, he was someone who had attempted to reach a higher level. Although he failed, even a weakened camel is bigger than a horse. He could easily crush an opponent like Jiang Bei. Even using conventional strategies, it would be easier for him than for Jiang Shu.

In his view, if Jiang Shu couldn't always have such good luck in triggering the hidden storyline, then the ending was almost predetermined.

Seeing his expression, everyone understood and felt relieved.

Just as everyone was relaxed and happy and about to open the champagne ahead of time, they suddenly heard a soft exclamation from the referee, as if he was confirming something. Soon after, the soft exclamation turned into a gasp of surprise.
