The battle ended in the blink of an eye.
At the moment the referee declared the winner, Ye An's gesture wiped out all of Jing Tian's attacks.
The battlefield wind ceased its clamor, gradually calming down.
All spectators were left in a stunned state of mind.
Just a second ago, Jing Tian held absolute advantage, but in the next moment, he conceded defeat to Ye An.
Now he lay flat on the ground, his eyes somewhat vacant, lost in thought.
Ye An casually walked past him, returning to his own competitor's tunnel.
In the top observation hall,
Di Qi shook his head with a bored expression.
Is Jing Tian weak?
Absolutely not.
But his lack of battle experience and simplistic mindset were evident.
Why did he suddenly think that erupting with all his strength and risking everything could defeat Ye An?
To put it bluntly,
Jing Tian lost his composure the moment he failed to gauge Ye An's Dao Fruit during the Six-Source Unification.
Their raw strength might not have differed significantly.
But that's realm strength. In the realm of combat, Jing Tian was too inexperienced. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
He possessed skills he didn't know how to utilize.
The moment Jing Tian exhausted all his strength to execute his finishing move, he had already lost.
Many young people fail to understand one thing.
Why save the finishing move until last?
The finishing move is powerful enough to be used midway through a battle, so why wait until the enemy is almost powerless?
That was probably Jing Tian's thinking.
The answer is actually quite simple.
The finishing move is meant for desperate situations.
Just because an opponent is in dire straits doesn't mean they lack fighting capability. Any warrior in a life-or-death struggle has the potential for a mutual downfall.
Put simply, it's like self-destruction—a skill nearly everyone possesses.
The finishing move is meant to counteract self-destruction, not to defeat an opponent in prime condition.
Ye An hadn't even revealed his Dao Fruit yet, and who knows how many cards he still held under his palm?
You used your finishing move?
Are you crazy?
The finishing move not only signifies immense power but also exposes significant vulnerabilities.
Therefore, Di Qi was deeply disappointed by the subsequent battle.
Soon after, the post-match interview came out.
Jing Tian sat in front of reporters with a bitter expression, saying in dismay, "I didn't expect him to break free from my full judgmental power."
The reporter then asked, "What were you thinking at that moment?"
Jing Tian lowered his head and replied, "The longer it dragged on, the lower my chances of winning. So why not unleash all my output at once?"
This answer made many ordinary people silently nod in agreement, finding it reasonable.
But some seasoned experts shook their heads.
Jing Tian's answer showed his confusion.
He oversimplified the problem.
"I'll just unleash all my output at once"—this is typical gambler's thinking.
Take a chance, if it hits, you win; if it misses, you surrender.
This kind of thinking precisely reveals a serious problem.
Jing Tian didn't know how to ensure a secure victory or even conceive ways to widen his advantage, so he resorted to gambling.
He lacked the ability to think during battle.
On the Great Wall battlefield, where surrender was not an option, this was fatal!
In contrast, Ye An used his Xuanwu Earth to enhance his punch's force and then skillfully removed the Six-Source Power.
Throughout this process, everyone could see from Ye An's changing gaze that he was deeply contemplating.
This led the experts to believe that perhaps Jing Tian never had a chance to win.
But they were also surprised: why was Ye An's mind so sharp and adaptive?
In such an intense battle, maintaining composure was already difficult, especially for an eighteen-year-old.
Moreover, Ye An wasn't just calm; he could also come up with excellent solutions in the blink of an eye. Upon closer examination, perhaps it wasn't that Jing Tian lacked ability but that Ye An's abilities were too strong.
At this moment, people suddenly realized:
His talent was a dream, akin to Ye Tianwen's.
He was a natural battle strategist!
That year, within the Human Clan's territory, all the strong were pushing Ye An to transition into a strategist.
Now, across myriad realms,
Ye An's fists were so powerful that they made the entire universe forget this fact!
Unbeknownst to him, the voices that had been forcing him to change careers were no longer echoing in Ye An's ears.
Now, standing in the basement training ground, his eyes swept across the venue's images, and he furrowed his brow, asking, "Were you training here just now?"
Xu Zhiye looked puzzled and shook his head, saying, "No, it wasn't me."
As he spoke, he walked to the Load-Bearing Wall, placed his palm in the middle of the wall, then looked up at the numbers on the wall that could only be described as astronomical.
"A spear."
"Only a long spear can pierce the Load-Bearing Wall with such damage numbers."
After a few seconds of silence, Ye An said, "It seems that my fourth assistant in the next match is a spear practitioner."
"Are there other powerful spear practitioners in the contemporary Human Realm?"
"As far as I know, there aren't many contemporary spear practitioners," Xu Zhiye shook his head.
He couldn't help but feel puzzled, thinking to himself, "What the hell is going on?"
These numbers, he couldn't figure out.
If Ye An's next assistant was really a spear practitioner,
it meant that their realm was the same as his, the Fifth Realm.
In the Human Realm, there was still a spear practitioner in the Fifth Realm who could deal far more damage than himself!
Who could it be!?
Xu Zhiye shook his head, saying, "It's definitely not your assistant in the next match. It must be a temporary spear practitioner for training."
Ye An chuckled lightly, "No, it definitely is."
With that, he walked to the table and picked up a piece of paper.
It was clearly written on it.
"In the next match, from the Divine Realm, Ye Lu and the White Ghost Emperor will appear."
"I need you to help me delay the White Ghost Emperor. I can't keep up with him in space, but your martial will can stop him."
"I will kill Ye Lu!"
Xu Zhiye looked at these lines, his expression somewhat unnatural.
Is it really Ye An's assistant in the next match?
So mysterious, not even showing up in person, leaving a note?
Playing the mysterious card!
Certainly not some powerful figure!
He felt uncomfortable.
There really is a spear practitioner in the contemporary era who is far more powerful than himself.
Why haven't I heard of this person before?
Xu Zhiye changed the subject, saying, "Today's match was a bit close."
Ye An shook his head, "Close?"
"He couldn't break through my defenses without using all his strength."
"If he used all his strength, he would lose his defense."
"Actually, I would have won either way."
"It's just that his choice accelerated everything."
"If he had been clearer-headed, he could have made me struggle a bit."
"The power of divine arts indeed exceeded my expectations."
Xu Zhiye nodded silently.
But suddenly, Ye An stepped forward and patted his shoulder, saying, "See, even the Divine Realm isn't exempt."
"Their geniuses also falter due to excessive self-confidence in their own power."
Xu Zhiye's face stiffened, and in his mind flashed again the scene of his spear thrusting into the shield of the Light and Dark Twins, about to be overwhelmed.
"I'm hungry," he suddenly turned and went upstairs to eat.
Ye An watched his back and a mischievous smile appeared on his face.
Teasing these geniuses was quite interesting.
