Chapter 1896: Winning Streak! Can Even a Supreme Ruler Be Killed?

~7 min read 1,311 words

"As expected, Xu Jingming was fishing."

In a corner of the spectator stands, the Ruler Lin Ge, who had anticipated this, was not too surprised by this scene.

"Damn it! So he was playing pig to eat tiger!"

At the back of the spectator stands, the Ruler Chen Yan's handsome face had already twisted.

He hadn't expected that Xu Jingming was truly this strong!

He even seemed quite a bit stronger than when he performed in the Water Domain back then!

The subsequent matches completely turned into Xu Jingming's solo show.

"Duel begins!"

"Pfft—"

0.5 seconds, a Demon race Undying Ruler, pierced through the brow by a streak of golden lightning.

"Duel begins!"

"Boom!"

0.3 seconds, a Devil race Undying Ruler, devoured by a lightning dragon formed from the Doushen Shenlei, leaving not even bones behind.

"Duel begins!"

"Clang!"

0.8 seconds, a Machine race Undying Ruler.

Without even deploying a shield, his core was pierced through by a lightning spear, dying on the spot.

Fast!

Too fast!

Xu Jingming's speed of victory was fast enough to suffocate!

From the second match onward, he never acted again.

Every duel was a clean, crisp instant kill!

The longest match took only 1.2 seconds!

The exclamations in the spectator stands went from initial shock, to later numbness, to final dead silence.

Two hundred thousand plus Rulers.

Just like that, they watched with their own eyes as Xu Jingming slaughtered match after match, like chopping melons and slicing vegetables!

"One hundred matches...... one hundred fifty matches...... two hundred matches......"

The electronic referee's counting voice.

Like a death knell, striking the heart of every alien race Ruler.

And Xu Jingming's Yuan Coin balance was also skyrocketing at a terrifying speed!

One hundred matches, ten thousand Yuan Coins!

Two hundred matches, twenty thousand Yuan Coins!

"Match two hundred thirteen, duel concluded!

Victor — Human race Heavenly Punishment Ruler! Time used 0.6 seconds!"

When the electronic referee announced this number, the entire venue fell dead silent.

Ten minutes

Merely ten minutes' time, Xu Jingming won two hundred thirteen consecutive victories!

Average time per match less than one second!

Even the electronic referee's voice announcement took longer than this!

What does this mean?

It means all Undying Ruler challengers, before him, basically couldn't even withstand a single move!

"Monster......"

A medium-small clan Ruler murmured to himself, eyes full of fear.

"Is this the true strength of the Human race's number one prodigy......"

"Undying Rulers before him are like ants!"

And what shocked the alien race Rulers even more was that Xu Jingming, from start to finish, didn't even pant once!

Two hundred thirteen consecutive battles.

Instant-killing two hundred thirteen Undying Rulers, yet his breath remained steady!

"Just how deep are his divine power reserves?!"

"This is completely unreasonable!"

Just as the whole venue was in shock, the electronic referee's voice rang out again:

"Match two hundred fourteen, challenger Insect race, Blood Locust Ruler!"

"Hua—!"

The originally dead silent spectator stands boiled over once more!

"Blood Locust Ruler! The Insect race's Supreme Ruler!"

"Finally a Supreme Ruler takes the stage!"

"Let's see if Xu Jingming can still instant-kill now!"

"..."

Amidst the discussions, a figure slowly walked onto the arena.

It was an Insect race Ruler over ten meters tall, his entire body covered in dark red carapace.

He possessed four pairs of compound eyes, each a dark red, flashing with a cold, bloodthirsty light.

Most striking were the pair of wings on his back, thin as cicada wings.

Their edges sharp as blades, with the slightest vibration, space was cut into fine cracks.

Blood Locust Ruler!

A rare male Ruler among the insect race!

He had no insect race Queen's nest; relying solely on individual strength, he had reached the Paramount Ruler stage.

Renowned for speed and sharpness, he once single-handedly exterminated three small-to-medium clans!

"Xu Jingming."

The Blood Locust Ruler spoke, his voice hoarse and sharp, like metal grinding:

"Your performance should end now."

His four pairs of compound eyes locked onto Xu Jingming simultaneously, killing intent undisguised:

"Two hundred thirteen consecutive victories? Impressive.

But before me, your little record is not worth mentioning."

Xu Jingming finally raised his eyes slightly, gazing directly at this insect race Paramount Ruler before him.

"Oh?"

The corner of his mouth hooked into a curve that was half-smile, half-not:

"Then... let's try?"

"Arrogant!"

The Blood Locust Ruler let out a screech, the thin wings on his back suddenly vibrating at high frequency!

"Buzz——!!!"

A piercing shriek rang through the entire arena!

The next instant, his figure abruptly vanished!

No, not vanished.

But speed too fast, directly merging into the void, so fast even divine sense could hardly capture it!

"So fast!"

"This is the Blood Locust Ruler's Instant Shadow Thousand Strikes! It already has a hint of the Space Ultimate Boundary!"

"Xu Jingming will definitely lose!"

"..."

Amid the cries of alarm, Xu Jingming still stood calmly.

He didn't even lift an eyelid.

He merely held the spear with one hand, the shaft turning slightly; in his pitch-black pupils, lightning light seemed to pierce through illusion.

"Playing with space power before me?"

He chuckled lightly, the laughter carrying undisguised mockery:

"Courting death."

Words barely fallen, the long spear suddenly thrust out!

A golden spear beam condensed to the utmost, like lightning, precisely stabbed into a spot ahead that seemed empty of anything.

"Puchi."

The muffled sound of spear tip entering flesh was clearly audible.

A dark red figure staggered into view — precisely the Blood Locust Ruler!

He looked down; a section of spear tip entwined with golden lightning threads had pierced through his heart.

Lei Guang was spreading wildly along the wound, annihilating every inch of his vitality.

"How could you see through...?"

The Blood Locust Ruler's four pairs of compound eyes were full of shock and bewilderment; his space concealment had actually been seen through so easily!

"Space isn't used like that by you."

Xu Jingming's wrist shook lightly, the long spear trembling.

"Bang!"

The Blood Locust Ruler's body exploded in response, turning into sky-full light particles drifting away.

Silence.

Dead silence once again.

But this time, the shock contained in the silence far surpassed the previous tenfold, hundredfold!

In the audience stands, all Ruler-stage.

Whether human race or alien race, all were dumbstruck like wooden chickens.

Paramount Ruler...

That was a Paramount Ruler!

Placed in any clan, they are top combat power, existences sufficient to guard a star domain!

Yet was also killed by Xu Jingming in one move?!

"Duel ended! Victor: Human Race Heavenly Punishment Ruler!"

The electronic referee's voice rang out once more.

"Boom——!!!"

The entire venue completely exploded!

"Supreme Sovereign! The Blood Locust Sovereign was killed in an instant!"

"Xu Jingming possesses the combat power of a Supreme Sovereign?!"

"How, how is this possible?! He's only a Initial Tribulation Sovereign!"

"Monster! An absolute monster!"

"......"

The noisy discussion nearly overturned the venue!

At the front of the spectator stands, the Heavenly War Sovereign suddenly stood up, his crimson pupils blazing with frantic flames:

"Even a Supreme Sovereign was killed in an instant? Just how strong has this Xu Jingming become?!"

The Eclipse Star Sovereign's alluring cheeks were now icy cold.

The Blood Locust Sovereign had high offense but low defense, and even among Supreme Sovereigns, he was considered extremely fragile.

Even so, he was still a Supreme Sovereign!

Being killed in an instant by an Initial Tribulation Sovereign is simply unimaginable!

Her deep purple eyes fixed intently on Xu Jingming on the dueling platform, her gaze filled with icy cold light:

"It seems... we all underestimated him too much."

She fell silent for a moment, then suddenly rose to her feet:

"There's nothing left to see here, Heavenly War—I'll go ahead first."

After speaking, she didn't wait for Heavenly War's response.

Her figure transformed into a streak of purple light and vanished from the spectator stands.
