Chapter 146: Pants dropped, has Ye Bai won Shangguan Yijian's approval?

As luck would have it, just as Shangguan Yijian was about to succumb to a fit of jealousy, a Haicheng prodigy came running back.

They stated bluntly that their people had run into Ye Bai and now knew Ye Bai's current location!

"Are you sure it's Ye Bai?!"

"Sure. Although he was wearing a set of Blood Armor and our people didn't recognize him at first, Ye Bai robbed our people of their points! When he handed over the points, he said he was Ye Bai!"

"And Ye Bai is to the southeast, only a dozen or so kilometers away from us!"

"Swish!" A thick, intense light suddenly erupted from Shangguan Yijian's eyes.

"Good, very good!"

"Haha, as long as I take care of Ye Bai, my first place will be completely secure; there is no way Xuanyuan Mu can catch up!"

He issued an order: "Now, everyone follow me!"

"Come witness me taking first place in this Ladder Tournament for Haicheng!"

Then, he took the lead, like a long rainbow, and charged toward the southeast!

"Swish! Swish!"

All the surrounding Haicheng prodigies followed one after another!

……

And at the same time Shangguan Yijian learned of Ye Bai's location.

The Ladder Tournament livestream room.

"Shocking! Shangguan Yijian has suddenly stopped hunting the Alien Race!"

"He even has everyone else from Haicheng following him!"

"What does he want to do??"

Because many people had been keeping an eye on Shangguan Yijian's perspective, someone discovered the anomaly immediately.

"I know what he wants to do. Ye Bai just ran into a Haicheng prodigy over there and plundered the other party's points, letting that person know his identity."

"Then, if I'm not mistaken, that Haicheng prodigy went back and told Shangguan Yijian the news, and Shangguan Yijian has decided to make a move on Ye Bai."

Then, a viewer who had been watching Ye Bai's perspective came out and posted a bullet comment.

Two sentences, instantly shocking the entire audience!

"What?! Shangguan Yijian has his eyes on Ye Bai?!"

"No way, no way, are two of our three top prodigies from Jiangnan Prefecture this year going to clash in the very first stage?"

"This kind of situation didn't happen in the last Ladder Tournament; the top prodigies only decided the winner at the very end of the Ladder Tournament!"

"But thinking about it, Shangguan Yijian doesn't have our god's-eye view. In his eyes, Ye Bai having his current points is still just luck."

"To him, Ye Bai is just a fat, oily sheep..."

Dense bullet comments instantly flooded the entire livestream room!

"Take a guess, who will win later?"

"I guess Shangguan Yijian. After all, he is a dual-talent owner and was long ago certified as a King-level Prodigy by Magic City Martial Arts University."

"His speed at hunting the Alien Race is actually not slow, and almost no Alien Race he encountered could withstand a single strike from him; it's just that his movement speed is much worse than Ye Bai's."

"I think it's Ye Bai. Ye Bai's movement speed is too astonishing! Of all the martial arts in the world, only speed is unbreakable!"

"No, no, no, I'm from Haicheng, Shangguan Yijian is definitely the strongest! He is number one!"

"My little hero Ye Bai from Jiangcheng will not let us down!"

A massive number of viewers even engaged in a heated discussion about the outcome of the battle between Ye Bai and Shangguan Yijian.

However, because of Ye Bai's heaven-defying performance over the past hour.

This discussion did not have a practical result.

The number of people supporting Ye Bai and those supporting Shangguan Yijian was already about fifty-fifty!

Everyone could only nervously watch the two perspectives in the livestream room, waiting for the two to encounter each other!

……

"Hmph, my Shangguan Gege will definitely win!"

As for Bu Chi Xiang Cai, she was very confident in Shangguan Yijian.

She had a near-obsessive infatuation with Shangguan Yijian.

If it weren't for the fact that Shangguan Yijian was too outstanding, how could she, who kept an entire fishpond, be willing to offer herself?

"Just wait and see, Shangguan Gege is definitely the first place of the first stage, and is destined to be the first place of this Ladder Tournament!"

……

However, contrary to everyone's expectations.

Through the dual perspectives of Ye Bai and Shangguan Yijian in the Ladder Tournament livestream room.

Everyone clearly saw that as time passed, the straight-line distance between the two was shortening.

But just when the two were less than three thousand meters apart.

Ye Bai suddenly raised his Bracelet and took a look.

Then his figure disappeared directly, and he actually left the sweeping direction he had been following all along!

This resulted in Shangguan Yijian and Ye Bai ultimately missing each other, with the two heading in completely opposite directions.

"What's the situation?"

"Why did Ye Bai suddenly change direction?"

"And he shifted laterally by nearly a thousand meters all at once..."

The massive number of viewers in the livestream room were all stunned.

You have to know, they had just been so nervous that some of them had even forgotten to breathe, their faces flushed red.

So they took off their pants, only to show us this?

"I just watched Ye Bai's perspective carefully; it seems to be because Ye Bai discovered a Nianshen Grass..."

A bullet comment suddenly appeared to explain.

"Holy crap, the Nianshen Grass that a Third Grade Mind Martial Artist must use to enter the Fourth Grade? The one worth over a thousand Merit Points per stalk?"

"Yes..."

"Holy crap, holy crap, this is heaven-defying!

How could there be a treasure of this level in the Ladder Tournament's Secret Realm? The key is, how did Ye Bai just happen to run into it?"

"Envy, jealousy, and hatred. I am a Third Grade Peak Mind Martial Artist, but all these years, let alone finding Nianshen Grass, no one would sell it to me even if I offered two thousand Merit Points..."

The entire audience was shocked!

"That's not the point. The point should be, how did Ye Bai discover there was Nianshen Grass about a thousand meters away from him?"

"Do you guys think Ye Bai could be a Mind Martial Dual Cultivator?"

A bullet comment suddenly appeared.

"Hiss!"

Countless viewers in front of their screens gasped in cold air!

"Impossible, stop thinking about it. Do you know that to rely on Mental Power to discover Nianshen Grass a thousand meters away, one must be at least a Fourth Grade Mind Martial Artist?

If Ye Bai really is a Mind Martial Dual Cultivator, then he would be a Fourth Grade of Mind and Martial Arts! The key is that he only awakened his talent over half a year ago. Forget about being number one in Jiangnan Prefecture; it wouldn't even be impossible for him to compete for the position of the national First Genius!"

Someone finally calmed down and spoke after a rational analysis.

This caused the countless viewers in front of their screens to calm their emotions.

"If I'm not mistaken, the reason Ye Bai was able to find this Nianshen Grass is because of the Instructors in the Ladder Tournament."

"You all know that in the last Ladder Tournament, the top geniuses only decided the winner at the very end.

So I have every reason to suspect that the Instructors responsible for maintaining order inside discovered that Ye Bai and Shangguan Yijian were about to clash, and did this on purpose!"

Another round of analysis.

Everyone felt it made a lot of sense.

Although there was some regret in their hearts that they didn't get to see a conflict break out between the two top geniuses.

But they are both King-level Prodigies after all. If they really fought, wouldn't it be a joke if one of them couldn't even make it into the top fifty in the end?

"Why? Why?!"

Only Bu Chi Xiang Cai was about to go crazy.

Just a little bit more, and her Shangguan Gege could have sat firmly on the number one throne!

What kind of King-level Prodigy is Ye Bai, someone from the lowest background who just happened to make it this far by luck?!

At the same time.

Jiangcheng.

Yang Hai finally opened the livestream of the Ladder Tournament.

Before this, he had been busy, investigating some very deeply hidden clues.

Because the reason he decided to suppress Ye Bai was that Ye Sanjian had suddenly told him a piece of intelligence.

A piece of intelligence that hadn't been verified yet, but was enough for him to personally approach the Vice Principal of Magic City Martial Arts University and quickly make the decision that Ye Bai must never be allowed to grow!

"Ye Bai..."

"He's got something; he really is a King-level Prodigy."

"And now he has already gained the recognition of all the Military Department Instructors in Jiangnan Prefecture..."

At this moment, Yang Hai actually acknowledged the fact that Ye Bai was a King-level Prodigy!

"But it's meaningless.

Even if Shangguan Yijian hadn't plundered your points, and you even had hope of taking first place and upgrading your talent again, your Martial Dao path would never exceed the Fifth Grade!"

He looked at the peerless Ye Bai, who was still killing crazily in the livestream, and smiled coldly...
