Chapter 577: Peak Tournament Champion! Desperate geniuses!

~7 min read 1,270 words

Silence—

The entire stadium, which can accommodate over 100 million spectators, is as quiet as death.

Countless people stare dumbfounded at the corpse falling to the ground in the holographic projection.

Dead?

The United States' SS-rank Katherine actually died just like that?!

Some ordinary people, and even Rank 1 and Rank 2 psychics, didn't even see how Katherine died at all!

They only saw two golden lightning flashes, and Katherine was pierced through the skull.

And at this time, the holographic projection in mid-air begins to replay that scene just now in slow motion.

Only then do they see Xu Jingming strike with his right hand, without a moment's pause, striking again with his left hand!

In an instant, he blew Katherine's head off and killed her.

From the holographic projection, the footage has already been slowed down by a full four times!

But Xu Jingming's movements are still faster than some Rank 3 enhancement-type psychics!

Accompanied by the end of the slow-motion footage, the originally silent stadium instantly boils over!

"What a powerful attack! Won! Thunder Emperor won!"

"Thunder Emperor has walked all the way here, crushing many powerful enemies; I knew he would definitely win!"

"Thunder Emperor! Strongest!!"

"......"

Before the Peak Tournament started, no one thought Xu Jingming would win.

But Xu Jingming gave them a surprise right from the start; with all his trump cards revealed, his strength soared directly to the same level as Katherine's!

And now, he even seized the opportunity in the blink of an eye to behead Katherine and win the final victory!

At this moment,

Countless Daxia people are excited, their faces flushed, rising from their seats and cheering loudly!!

It seems they want to release all the disappointment and suppression from just now together.

"Angel! My angel, actually killed?"

"God, bring judgment upon that blasphemer!"

"Katherine is an angel; angels can still be resurrected; this match hasn't ended yet!"

"......"

Compared to the excited and enthusiastic Daxia people, the Western spectators are heartbroken.

Some devout believers of the Holy See even faint on the spot.

An angel being killed is undoubtedly trampling on their faith!

Some extreme fanatics even believe Katherine didn't die and will be resurrected again!

However, facts prove that they were overthinking it.

Katherine's corpse, just like the contestants Xu Jingming had killed in the arena in the past, turns into light spots and disappears.

And the commentator appears in the very center, announcing loudly:

"The Peak Tournament finals are over; the winner of this match is... Xu Jingming from Daxia!

Let us congratulate him, congratulate him on successfully becoming the champion of the 21st Global Genius Exchange Tournament Peak Tournament!!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!......

Countless fireworks bloom above the arena, and thunderous cheers ring out in the stadium:

"Thunder Emperor!"

"Thunder Emperor!"

"......"

In the spectator area, Su Yu, Andre, Wang Dong, and many other geniuses look at this scene with envy.

Especially Su Yu, whose expression carries endless sighs.

He originally thought that this Genius Tournament would be a match where he made a name for himself and appeared before the world as the final winner.

But he didn't expect that he didn't even get a ranking in the top two......

"I thought that after the Genius Tournament, my reputation would exceed yours, but now it seems there's no such chance."

Su Yu shakes his head helplessly.

He is already 26 years old this year; he definitely can't participate in the next Genius Tournament five years later.

That is to say, the only chance in his life to get such an honor has been lost just like that.

Although a bit disappointed, he also loses with conviction.

Whether it's Katherine or Xu Jingming, their strength is stronger than his; he can't deny this point.

"Katherine is one thing; with the United States' Supreme Supreme Qiangzhe cultivating her, it's normal to have this strength.

But Xu Jingming, how are you such a monster?"

Su Yu subconsciously looks at the tall, sturdy youth figure being watched by countless gazes on the arena.

Xu Jingming's teacher, Su Su Qingli, is Daxia's youngest Rank 9 Dharma Saint.

In the eyes of others, this is indeed already very powerful.

But for him, who studied under Teacher Zhou Zhou Yuanwu, it's nothing.

It can be said,

The education resources and cultivation resources he and Xu Jingming enjoyed are completely not on the same level!

Even so, 20-year-old Xu Jingming is still stronger than him; this is what he can't understand at all.

"No, can't keep thinking, otherwise Xu Jingming might become my shadow, affecting my subsequent cultivation."

Su Yu shakes his head hard, only then throwing all thoughts to the back of his mind.

As an SS-rank psychic awakener, he also has strong faith in himself.

It's just a temporary setback; the road to the peak is still very long.

He believes that one day in the future he will be able to surpass Xu Jingming... surpass my ass!

20-year-old Rank 6 low-level!

When he was 20, he had only just entered Rank 3 peak!

"Forget it, whatever happens, happens.

I don't count on surpassing Xu Jingming; let's set a small goal and be stronger than Katherine first."

Su Yu, who has always been very confident in himself, actually appears to have some desperate emotions in front of Xu Jingming.

He might still be able to surpass a genius like Katherine if he works hard.

But for 20-year-old Xu Jingming, he really has no way at all......

"Xu Jingming... actually got the Peak Tournament championship?"

Not just Su Yu, Wang Dong also falls into silence.

How long has it been since Xu Jingming entered the Thunder Martial Pavilion genius training camp?

Half a year?

No! Not even half a year!

Xu Jingming came to the Thunder Martial Pavilion headquarters on June 17th, and today is November 23rd.

Counting it fully, it's only been five months and a bit.

"Five months to break through from Rank 4 upper-level to Rank 6, and his combat power is stronger than a Rank 6 mid-level SS-rank! Is this NM human?"

Thinking that he spent a full year or more to break through from Rank 5 to Rank 6, Wang Dong becomes autistic.

He and Xu Jingming, it seems, were never opponents on the same level from the start.

"I remember Teacher Hu seems to want to continue targeting him.

Forget it, I'd better apply for early graduation and go sit in the Thunder Secret Realm......"

Wang Dong thinks silently in his heart.

Originally, he would only graduate from the genius training camp next June.

But he feels that continuing to stay in the training camp seems to have no meaning.

In addition, the place he was originally going to was the Thunder Martial Pavilion branch located in Modu.

That is one of the most important core branches of the Thunder Martial Pavilion.

But now he vaguely feels that the confrontation between Pavilion Master Su Su Qingli and his teacher Hu Hu Jinyu is about to officially begin.

Critical places like the Modu branch will definitely trigger no small disputes later on.

If he goes there, he will likely clash with Xu Jingming later.

Since that's the case, he can only settle for the next best thing and go to the Thunder Secret Realm.

Although compared to the Modu branch, the Thunder Secret Realm is not that important.

But at least he won't be dragged into the competition between the Pavilion Master and the Deputy Pavilion Master.

At the same time, on the American spectator side, Katherine has also angrily logged back on...... ===== CHAPTER 578 =====
