Fang Xiyue is used to going to bed at 10:00 every day, so two hours is just right for watching a movie and also allows her to spend time with her husbands.

"Yueyue, I got a cut on my abs today. Can you help me check if it will leave a scar?"

While enjoying the movie, Su Zheyu suddenly became restless. Since Yueyue didn't have a match tomorrow, he figured he could do something, right?

Although he had competitions, he always felt that holding Yueyue was a way to replenish his energy.

"And me, Yueyue, do you see if this part of me is swollen?"

Song Yifan took Fang Xiyue's hand and placed it on his chest, his eyes sparkling with innocent light.

Fang Xiyue felt that these husbands were becoming more and more dramatic. Their minds were full of colorful thoughts, but on the surface they remained clear and transparent.

With those two leading the way, how could the other six possibly suffer a loss? In the end, only Fang Xiyue was the one who lost out.

"Waaah, my back hurts."

"Let's try a different position."

"No, my leg is going to break."

"It's okay, it's okay, just hang in there a little longer."

"Let go, let go, sob sob."

"Right away, right away, don't cry."

"Stop pinching, it really hurts!"

"Don't cry, let me rub it for you."

"I didn't mean for you to rub it!"

...

Such pleas for mercy, shouts of anger, and coaxing echoed in the room.

The next morning, Fang Xiyue rubbed her lower back and glared at the men in front of her who were all smiling ingratiatingly at her.

Now everyone's acting like a human being, but last night they were acting like complete idiots.

They actually took turns filming, one person per hour, and then someone else would come over.

She knows she's in good health and recovers quickly, but she still gets tired, okay?

Eight hours! She barely slept at all! She's going to stay in bed today; she doesn't want to go out.

"Yueyue, don't be angry. We promise this will only happen once, and we will never be together again."

"Yes, there will definitely be no eight people together again."

Seeing their earnest assurances, Fang Xiyue believed them, unaware that she had fallen into a linguistic trap. Just because there wouldn't be eight of them together didn't mean there wouldn't be seven, six, or so...

Although Fang Xiyue said she didn't want to watch the game, she still went in the end.

She tossed and turned in her room, unable to sleep because she was still worried, so she still rushed to the venue before the competition started.

The draw for the gold-themed competition is complete, and Zuo Yu received a bye and advanced directly to the quarterfinals.

Ye Ziming and Jin Muze both drew people from other countries, but Wang Hui and Lin Feng from Haicheng were drawn together.

Wang Hui is much stronger than Lin Feng. Basically, during training camp, Lin Feng loses to Wang Hui every time they fight.

Lin Feng was a little excited that they were all together again. Of course, they wouldn't use their special abilities to fight; they would just fight hand-to-hand without even using weapons.

"Those Chinese are so cunning. If they don't use their superpowers in the battle, then the quarterfinals are practically a done deal."

"Yeah, yeah, that's so mean!"

The spectators from other countries in the stands were unhappy and went to complain.

However, complaining is useless. There is no rule that prohibits hand-to-hand combat. After all, superpowers can be depleted, and hand-to-hand combat is still necessary after the superpowers are depleted.

"From now on, we won't need to use our superpowers when facing each other. Sigh, we still can't outsmart them."

Their side fought very peacefully, but the others were a different story; their performance was, to put it mildly, utterly disastrous.

The fact that the round of 15 ended like this shows that everyone's strength is truly not to be underestimated.

Ye Ziming and Jin Muze were covered in blood, as if they had been soaked in it. Fang Xiyue's tears streamed down her face.

"It's okay, Yueyue. She'll be fine after a little treatment."

Jun Nanxuan held Fang Xiyue in his arms, pressing her head against his chest so she wouldn't see the terrible scene outside.

It wasn't just those two; everyone else was in a similar situation. They were truly fighting with their lives to secure a spot in the top 8.

The entire audience in the stands fell silent, many covering their mouths and weeping silently.

Ye Zimo knelt on the ground, supporting his body with one arm. Because blood had flowed into his eye, one of his eyes was squinting.

He hadn't used his special battle pet yet, but now he was about to deliver the final blow. The moment he looked up, a golden dragon soared out from behind him and charged toward Pete.

Pete raised his hand to block, he really didn't expect Ye Zimo to have a special ability to release a special battle pet.

As the golden dragon was about to reach him, he reluctantly admitted defeat, otherwise he might not have survived.

Ye Zimo finally collapsed, leaning against the wall, panting. He had won. He had won.

The battles in the other compartments had also ended, and the contestants were either sitting or lying down, but none of them could stand up.

Cheers erupted throughout the stadium; at that moment, nationality no longer mattered, and everyone seemed to be one family.

The athletes were carried out one by one by the medical team; they had no strength left to leave the arena.

Fang Xiyue, accompanied by her other husbands, arrived at the treatment area. Seeing the two faces that were no longer recognizable, Fang Xiyue burst into tears.

After the results were announced, five Chinese players advanced to the quarterfinals: Ye Ziming, Zuo Yu, Wang Hui, Jin Muze, and Qi Wang.

The following matches were basically like this: everyone went in perfectly fine but ended up being carried out.

Three people from the Wood element advanced: Jiang Bin, Qian Guangxing, and Ke Yi;

Three people advanced from the water system: Song Yifan, Wang Quan'an, and Zhou Yuan;

Four players advanced from the Fire element: Xiao Zihan, Zheng Yang, Chen Shuai, and Wu Fei;

Two Earth-element players advanced: Fang Xichen and Gao Qi;

Four players from the Wind faction advanced: Jun Nanxuan, Su Zheyu, Guo Sheng, and Gong Yunting;

Three people from the Psychic Department advanced: Chu Xingyan, Zhao Liang, and Duan Qi;

One ice-type character advanced: Leng Yu;

Two players advanced from the speed category: Chu Lin and Zhang Hang;

One person advanced from the Strength category: Li Ruiqi.

This result actually surprised everyone. They claimed that their superpowers had been upgraded earlier than those abroad, but it turns out that there really are some amazing people there.

Gong Yunxiao won because he drew Jun Nanxuan's name. The two then competed in martial arts, and Jun Nanxuan won decisively.

When the event ended, almost everyone's eyes were swollen. People from most countries decided never to participate in the Superpower Competition again; it was just too much.

Of course, this is just what the audience thinks; the contestants still insist on participating.

Jun Nanxuan and Gong Yunxiao were not injured, so they stayed with Fang Xiyue to take care of the other six people.

Fang Xichen also has Zuo Yu taking care of her.

Their injuries are too severe; the medical team needs to treat them slowly.

All events in the quarterfinals will be held together, starting at 6 PM.

After the treatment, everyone went back to their dormitories to rest. Everyone was very tired and fell asleep very quickly.

Because there was a match tonight, those who hadn't rested dared not make any noise.

Everyone lay quietly in their own beds, afraid of disturbing others' sleep.

Fang Xiyue slept very restlessly between Jun Nanxuan and Gong Yunxiao, often jolting awake suddenly.
