Chapter 1127 - 879: The Main Character Arrives

Brick, although he did not know how Brize reached this conclusion, believed in Brize’s judgement.

"If that’s the case, then we’ll just keep smashing until he’s dead!"

Two warhammers were raised high again, then they were brought down heavily at the same time, while Hei Jing still did nothing. He did not block, allowing the warhammers to fall. Hei Jing, who had originally been flattened in the middle, was this time smashed down forcibly, tightly pressed against the ground. Brick and Brize, like two blacksmiths, each with a hammer, took turns pounding away. And Hei Jing was being flattened more and more.

"What good is this!" roared Brick.

"No, we’ve lost," Brize suddenly said.

"What? But he’s like this already!" Brick said incredulously, pointing at Hei Jing who had been flattened until his original form was completely unrecognizable.

"Is he bleeding?"

"No... no..."

"Did he cry out in pain?"

"No."

"Either we’re only attacking his avatar, or he’s simply immune to pure physical attacks," said Brize.

"Huh?" Brick was somewhat dumbfounded; he believed in Brize’s judgement, whether it was the former Bone King or the current Brize, he had never been deceived by him.

"We surrender," Brize suddenly shouted loudly.

Surrender? When the competition had only just begun?

Even the commentator was stunned, and the whole audience was visibly incredulous.

And it was at this moment, the Hei Jing who had just been flattened began to wriggle, making a sound like sand, as he supported his previously flattened body back up, eventually restoring it to its original state. Except for some creases on his clothes, he showed no signs of any injury!

"Did everyone see that? Hei Jing, the contestant, is completely immune to physical attacks! No wonder Brick and Brize, the brothers, had to surrender! Because their attacks are purely physical!" the commentator shouted loudly.

From the start to the end of the match, it all took less than five minutes. Although it did not break Long Yi’s record, such combat methods, which completely subdued the opponent by exploiting his own traits, still earned a string of accolades from the live audience.

"It’s just a pity that we have to add another defeat to our record," said Brick with resignation.

"It’s better than being afflicted with Crystal Poison," replied Brize.

"What? Crystal Poison? Hey, you’re not trying to tell me that guy came out of the Ancient Mage Tower, are you?" Brick’s already huge eyes bulged even more.

"Although I have no evidence, according to my judgement, that’s the case," said Brize. "The moment we first attacked, I felt a vibration from within his body, as if crystals were shattering, and our subsequent attacks confirmed that vibration for me."

"You mean, this so-called Hei Jing, might actually be a Crazy Demon on the inside, but covered with a layer of skin on the outside?" Brick asked.

"Yes," Brize nodded.

"That’s interesting. Is the Ancient Mage Tower testing the strength of their new experiment here?" Brick shook his head, opening the door to his own resting room.

Behind the door, a person laughed and said, "No, I think that bastard is still coming after me."

That person was Long Yi.

In fact, it was Long Yi who had told Brize to surrender just before. Because they simply could not win this battle, the opponent was too strong, and the simple fact that he was not afraid of physical damage was enough to baffle Brick and Brize. And the magic turret would also not be able to win the fight by relying solely on pure magic; defeat was only a matter of time.

"At least let us struggle a bit before surrendering," Brick said with some regret.

"I was afraid that after a bit of struggle, you’d turn into a Crazy Demon," said Long Yi.

"That makes sense," Brick nodded, saying no more.

"So, how do you plan to deal with this? Are you going to fight personally?" Brize asked.

"Everything so far is based partly on my conjecture, so I’ve decided to wait and see. If this guy claims he’s coming for me, wouldn’t it be embarrassing for me to show up so easily? As the top contender here, I have to wait until the very last one to appear, no matter what."

After Brick and Brize’s defeat, Hei Jing truly shone as bright as the sun, successively defeating various high-end players. Whether it was in the circuit championships or the ladder competitions, Hei Jing managed to defeat each person in an extremely clean and swift manner. For a time, people really began to compare him with Long Yi. This was almost a repeat of what Long Yi had done in the past—except he wasn’t very good at giving speeches.

Some people thought he was very likely to claim the throne of the Stellar Realm Arena King, while others believed that Hei Jing still fell short compared to Long Yi—despite his ruthlessness, he wasn’t smart enough. And as everyone knows, Long Yi’s strength is not just reflected in his power, but also in his intelligence with every fight, leaving people still unaware of what Long Yi’s true strength actually is.

Both sides argued incessantly while watching the matches, but, as for Long Yi and Hei Jing, neither showed any intention to speak out.

Thus, with each battle coming to an end, Hei Jing also drew ever closer to the competition for the King of the Stellar Realm Arena.
