Chapter 1261: 1261 **Chapter 1261: Why is He Surprised?** No one knows how many human cultivators are mixed in the battlefield, except for the Human Emperor Network. But this number is not small. Just look at the long lines every day at the places where battlefield tokens are issued and military merits are settled. The only arena in the fortress has 100,000 seats, and they are all full, with no empty seats. If this were in the human star domain, everyone could enter the Human Emperor Network and watch the match in the virtual world, accommodating as many people as possible. But at this moment, they are on the battlefield, disconnected from the human star domain. Not only are they geographically disconnected, but even the Human Emperor Network is different. The Human Emperor Network covers this area, but its power is not as strong as in the human star domain, unable to accommodate so many people entering the Human Emperor Network simultaneously. So the Human Emperor Network projects the images of the challengers, allowing people to watch in reality. This way, the pressure on the Human Emperor Network is slightly reduced. Outside the arena, some people arrived late and found no seats. But it doesn’t matter; if there are no seats, they can stand and watch. Everyone can fly, so standing in mid-air is not a problem. The arena’s large formation rises, and as long as you buy a ticket, you can enter. Thus, the audience seats are full, and the sky is also filled with people standing. At least 150,000 people are watching this challenge. The duel between the strong on the combat power list is incredibly attractive. On the huge arena, the situation of both challengers is projected, with both standing at opposite ends, waiting for the challenge to begin. Above their heads are their names and their rankings on the combat power list. Challenger: Bai Tianzong, ranked 25th on the combat power list. Defender: Lin Moyu, ranked 10th on the combat power list. In the center of the arena is a huge countdown, with two minutes left until the challenge begins. The arena is bustling, with everyone discussing. Most people are unfamiliar with Lin Moyu, the newcomer, and know nothing about his real situation, not even his laws or spells. But many people know Bai Tianzong, ranked 25th on the combat power list. He is an old God King realm powerhouse, having been on the combat power list for over a hundred years, with considerable fame. "Bai Tianzong excels in the Starlight Law. Although the Starlight Law is common, few can use it well." "The Starlight Law can borrow the power of starlight in the great world. Its weakness is that its attack and defense are mediocre, but its advantage is minimal consumption, suitable for long-term battles." "I’ve seen Bai Tianzong fight before. His control over the Starlight Law had reached a meticulous level fifty years ago. He must be even stronger now." "The longer this battle drags on, the more advantageous it is for Bai Tianzong. I wonder how Lin Moyu will handle it and achieve a quick victory." At this moment, many people became analysts and prophets, speculating and analyzing the strategies of both sides. Unfortunately, they knew too little about Lin Moyu, and most of their judgments were based on guesses. Someone then said curiously, "Bai Tianzong’s expression seems a bit strange!" The Human Emperor Network projects all the images from the Human Emperor Arena in great detail, including the expressions of the characters inside, visible to everyone present. However, the projection only includes images, not sound. At this moment, Bai Tianzong’s eyes were wide open, his eyeballs almost falling out, his mouth agape as if he wanted to say something but couldn’t. Han Yu and the others standing below the stage also noticed Bai Tianzong’s expression. "What did this guy see?" "He must have seen something unbelievable. We’ll ask him after the battle ends." "Boss Han Yu, do you think Tianzong can win this fight?" Han Yu pondered for a few seconds, "Even if he can’t win, with Tianzong’s ability, he can at least show us Lin Moyu’s true strength." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞 He then added, "At least most of his strength." Because of Bai Tianzong’s expression, Han Yu also lost some confidence in this challenge. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Bai Tianzong, but Bai Tianzong’s expression was too exaggerated. So exaggerated that even he couldn’t make an accurate judgment. He knew that Bai Tianzong must have seen something special to show such an expression. Han Yu fell into deep thought. Like Lin Moyu, he was a thoughtful person. "Now the challenge hasn’t officially started, and there’s little information to see." "Tianzong must have seen Lin Moyu’s cultivation realm. Is Lin Moyu’s realm too high?" "No, if it were just a high realm, it wouldn’t make Tianzong react like this. Besides, how high could his realm be? At most, the sixth stage of God King." "So, it’s because Lin Moyu’s realm is too low." "The lower the realm, the stronger the combat power, indicating Lin Moyu’s ability to fight above his level, possibly by three or four stages." "Lin Moyu’s true realm should be around the first stage of God King. Only this would make Tianzong lose his composure." "Yes, it must be this." Han Yu quickly grasped the key issue. It wasn’t that Lin Moyu’s realm was too high, but too low. Lin Moyu was a super genius with astonishing combat power. In the Human Emperor Arena, Bai Tianzong’s expression remained unchanged for a long time. He saw Lin Moyu’s true realm: the seventh stage of True God. "Seventh stage of True God, this guy is only at the seventh stage of True God." "How is this possible? This is impossible." A seventh-stage True God entering the top 10 of the combat power list, with at least the combat power of a fifth-stage God King. This wasn’t just fighting above his level; it was cross-realm combat. It was like someone taking a running start and jumping 20 meters, while you, standing still, jumped 30 meters. It was simply unbelievable, almost a miracle. Bai Tianzong saw such a miracle. The Human Emperor Network doesn’t lie, and no one can hide their realm. Lin Moyu was indeed at the seventh stage of True God, and he indeed possessed such strong combat power. Bai Tianzong felt a sense of unreality, as if he were dreaming. It wasn’t until 30 seconds before the battle began that he finally woke up from his dream. He knew what he had to do and changed his tactics. He no longer hoped to defeat Lin Moyu; he just wanted to use his ability to force out as much of Lin Moyu’s true strength as possible. At the same time, he felt a bit unwilling. Both were geniuses, so why was the gap so large? He pondered his tactics, planning to use the minimal consumption advantage of the Starlight Law to delay as long as possible. With his third-stage God King realm and fourth-stage God King combat power, he would delay as long as he could. His gaze gradually became firm, and his battle intent surged. The Starlight Law gradually condensed, making the entire arena brighter. Lin Moyu observed his changes in expression and roughly guessed his thoughts. Lin Moyu didn’t care. Delay? Do you think you can delay as long as you want? How long you can delay depends on how long I want to play with you. But Lin Moyu didn’t want to play now. "10 million points..." Lin Moyu whispered softly. The 30 seconds ended, and the battle began. The restriction between the two disappeared, and Bai Tianzong didn’t rush over immediately. His law domain unfolded, and starlight fell from the sky, condensing into a shield. The shield enveloped Bai Tianzong, firmly protecting him, leaving no gaps.
