Chapter 218

Jiang Tianming was seen facing the attacking golden light alone. He stretched out his hand as if trying to block the opponent's attack.

However, just when all the spectators thought that he was overestimating his own abilities, the light actually disappeared without a trace the moment it touched him, revealing Huangfu Mingzhe who also had a bewildered look on his face.

He looked down at his fist, then at Jiang Tianming, and repeated this three times before asking in disbelief, "Where are my skills?"

Jiang Tianming put his hands behind his back and analyzed calmly: "Maybe it disappeared."

"Of course I know it disappeared! What I'm asking is why it disappeared!" Listening to his nonsense literature, Huangfu Mingzhe was going crazy, "Why do people in your academy like to play dumb so much?"

Wu Mingbai was one, Su Bei was one, and now he met Jiang Tianming. Huangfu Mingzhe felt that it was worthy of being the academy where Si Zhaohua was, and he was indeed very annoying.

However, Huangfu Mingzhe quickly calmed down. After thinking carefully, he looked at Jiang Tianming with a serious expression: "It is a supernatural power that eliminates abilities."

Since Jiang Tianming dared to use this ability just now, he was naturally not afraid of being exposed. However, he learned a very precious quality from Su Bei, that is, when the other party is uncertain, do not give a positive answer, so that the other party will always be in speculation.

Therefore, he just kept silent, and surrounded Huangfu Mingzhe with several teammates, preparing for a general attack.

Huangfu Mingzhe saw their intention and stopped asking questions. He was ready to fight and continued to resist. Unfortunately, without the support of his teammates, he was forced off the stage by five people after a short while. However, even in the face of the siege of five people, he successfully brought Jiang Tianming off the stage with him, saving his face.

Seeing Huangfu Mingzhe leave the stage, only the contestant from the "Infinite Power Academy" was left on the stage. The referee immediately announced the result of the competition, and the competition officially ended. As expected, the "Infinite Power Academy" won the final victory in the three-school competition.

I have to say that Huangfu Mingzhe is indeed very strong. He can hold on for a while in a 1v5 situation. In a sense, his individual attack ability is higher than any other member of the protagonist group.

Then he's done. Su Bei immediately showed sympathy. Such a powerful psychic was definitely not just a passerby. At the very least, he would play a big role in the incident that was about to happen. At worst, he might have many opportunities to appear in the future.

However, judging from Huangfu Mingzhe's personality, he is most likely happy to be involved in danger. Su Bei cannot understand this, but he respects it. If it weren't for these people who are happy to solve dangers, how can someone like him have the opportunity to enjoy himself?

Just as I was thinking about it, Lei Zeen pushed the door open and walked in, clapped his hands, and said with a smile: Let's go, our champions, go down and receive the awards!"

The three-school competition has always been very efficient. As soon as the last game ended, the awards were immediately prepared. However, this was also because the "Endless Ability Academy" had already secured victory in advance. The organizers had already prepared medals and other things early, so there was no need to prepare them on the spot, so the awards were especially fast.

Since there were only three schools competing, there was no need to rank the top three. Only the school that won first place would receive a medal and be the center of attention.

In fact, it is precisely because the "Infinite Power Academy" often gets the first place that it is considered the strongest among the three schools. However, because the resources of the three academies are not much different, but the teaching methods are different, they are not the strongest.

When everyone received their medals and bowed to the audience, Su Bei heard a message from the "Comic Sense": "The King of Superpowers" has been updated, please check it out."

The update was expected, so he was not surprised, nor was he in a hurry to go back and watch it. It was just a normal game, and it would be the same no matter when he watched it. What really made him "look forward" was tomorrow's entertainment game, and Su Bei was very curious about what would happen then.

Although he really wanted to not play, Su Bei was somewhat aware of his popularity. When he went out to buy snacks yesterday, many spectators surrounded him and wanted his autograph. Looking at their enthusiastic looks, Su Bei knew that he would definitely have a lot of fans.

But this is normal, he thought narcissistically. It would be abnormal for someone as handsome and powerful as him to have no fans. As for being forced to participate in entertainment competitions, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. There is nothing he can do about being so popular.

After receiving the award, there was no rush to leave the stage. There was another activity next, which was to let the audience vote for the ten people who would participate in the entertainment competition tomorrow. There was a number plate next to each audience seat, and they could choose their favorite players by the number.

Thirty contestants took to the stage together, and one-inch photos of the thirty contestants lit up on the big screen. The serial number in the corner of the photo was the contestant's number. Enter the number to vote for the contestant, and each audience member can cast three votes.

There was a number zero next to each photo, which meant that they had received zero votes so far. When the referee announced the start of voting, the numbers next to many people's portraits began to rise at an alarming speed.

Soon, many people were left behind. The one who had the most votes was Huangfu Mingzhe, who appeared frequently, was very strong, and was handsome, and his popularity was extremely high.

Following closely behind is Wu Jin. Although Wu Jin only appeared once, because he had just appeared and stunned everyone with his good looks, he was at the peak of his popularity, so many people voted for him.

The next players who are advancing in parallel are Su Bei, Lan Subing, Si Zhaohua and Jiang Tianming. They are all popular players who have had their moments of glory, so it is reasonable for them to be selected.

The gap between the remaining people was not that big, but fortunately, there was no tie, and the final list of ten people included the high-voted candidates mentioned above, as well as Wu Mingbai, the shadow girl Qiao Mu from the "Sky Dome Supernatural Academy", the [Synchronous Link] supernatural user Li Bowen from the "Houde Supernatural Academy", and the green-haired boy Ancestor from the same academy.

Yes, the last green-haired boy's name was Zuzong. When everyone saw this name, they looked at the calm green-haired boy with a strange look.

This name is... used to take advantage of others.

In the previous competition, the host had called out the name of this contestant. But because it was difficult to pay attention to the outside world during the competition, most of them didn't hear it, and even if they did, they just thought it was a pun.

It was not until now that I saw the name displayed on the big screen that I realized that the guy's name was actually the two words "ancestor", which is even more excessive than a pun.

Ignoring the looks from the people around him, Zuzong walked over to Subei with a smile and said, "Student Subei, please give me your guidance for tomorrow's entertainment competition!"

This is not a provocation. Entertainment competitions are not divided by colleges, otherwise the number of people from each college would not be unequal. Even if the game rules require teams to be formed, they are formed randomly, but it is more likely that each team will be on its own.

The reason why the ancestor came to him at this time was that he really wanted to try to see if he could form a team with Su Bei tomorrow. Even if they couldn't form a team, it would be good to let him target him less. After all, he was a destiny-type superpower, and he had shown his strong strength in the past two days, which impressed the ancestor.

In fact, the one who impressed the ancestor the most was Huangfu Mingzhe. Both of them defeated him openly in his [Arena]. It is worth mentioning that Huangfu Mingzhe chose the competition method at that time, and he directly chose martial arts. Even if the ancestor pulled out his eyes, he still couldn't beat him.

But Huangfu Mingzhe was too arrogant, and the ancestor thought it was useless to find him, and it would be more likely to make him target him. It would be better to find Su Bei to sell it, maybe it would be really useful in the end.

As for other people, he is not afraid of them. His [Arena] ability allows him to almost always win against any psychic whose fighting skills are inferior to his.

Oh, by the way, there is also Jiang Tianming.

The ancestor's eyes fell on Jiang Tianming. This person was also very strange. He was able to eliminate the link of his teammate Li Bowen before, and just now he eliminated Huangfu Mingzhe's ultimate move. As long as you think about it a little, you can guess that Jiang Tianming's ability must be related to eliminating supernatural powers.

This is a bit scary. Jiang Tianming already has the abilities of [Controlling Objects], [Binding Immortal Rope], and [Frost Mage]. Now he seems to have gained an ability to eliminate supernatural powers. How many supernatural powers does he have?

Long before the three-school competition began, they had already found out that Jiang Tianming possessed multiple superpowers. But at that time everyone thought he only had two superpowers at most, but now it seems that even four are too much.

But a college has a hold on a person's heart. With the help of classmates, would they have the heart to kill a weak and pitiful person like me?

Su Bei looked at this familiar guy and suddenly asked curiously: "What do your classmates usually call you?"

"Of course you're calling my name." The ancestor answered in a matter-of-fact tone.

Hearing this answer, Su Bei raised his eyebrows in surprise. Is it true that someone would call their classmates so kindly by a name that is obviously meant to take advantage of others?

Before he could say anything, he heard the auxiliary psychic of the [Synchronous Link] psychic, Li Bowen, swear: "Bullshit! Don't listen to his nonsense, we usually call him Sun Zi!"

It is reasonable for the ancestor to be called Sunzi. Su Bei smiled immediately: "Then I will follow the local customs. Don't worry, Sunzi, I will take good care of you tomorrow."

Ancestor: “…”

Seeing him being strangled by his companions, with a look of anger on his face, everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter. At one time, people shouted "Sun Zi" one after another, and even many people in the audience shouted.

The venue was filled with a cheerful atmosphere, and Su Bei once again received a pair of resentful eyes. This was probably the legendary sacrifice of the small self for the greater self, he thought.

After voting for the next day's entertainment contest, everyone was sent back to the hotel to rest. The rules of the entertainment contest will be announced tomorrow morning, so everyone can have a good night's rest before then.

The "Infinite Power Academy" held a celebration banquet in advance, hosted by local tycoon Lei Zeen, who took everyone to a delicious meal.

Lei Zeen is a real rich man. His ability can help many places build teleportation arrays, so he has many opportunities to make extra money. In addition, he usually has low material desires and has no other hobbies except tasting delicious food, so he saves a lot of money.

Meng Huai usually has low material desires, but he doesn't save much money. Hearing Zhao Xiaoyu ask this question, Ai Baozhu pointed at her teacher's seemingly ordinary black T-shirt and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this one is three thousand three."

Then she pointed at Meng Huai's sneakers and said, "This pair of shoes is 25,000 yuan."

After saying this, he shrugged at everyone, indicating that he had finished answering. From the details, it can be seen that the other clothes and accessories on Meng Huai are also very valuable. Not only that, his quality of life is probably also relatively high. There must be many valuable large items in places that they cannot see.

After listening to her introduction, Jiang Tianming was deeply shocked: "I didn't expect that you, teacher, would..."

He couldn't explain what it was like, but his stereotype of teachers made him subconsciously think that Meng Huai was a rough man who didn't pay much attention to the quality of life. It turned out that although he looked like a macho man, he was actually a refined boy.

Not to mention Jiang Tianming, even Su Bei was surprised.

Knowing what they were surprised about, Meng Huai rolled his eyes in annoyance: "Isn't the money we make to be spent?"

This touched Ai Baozhu's heart. She immediately nodded in agreement: "Teacher, you are right! Teacher, which brand of clothes do you think is better? Dad's birthday is coming soon, so it's a good time to choose one for him as a birthday present."

Meng Huai was silent for a moment, then answered seriously: "The more expensive the better."

"Pfft!" Lei Zeen couldn't help laughing, and he put his arm around Meng Huai's neck and said to Ai Baozhu, "You're asking the wrong question to him. This guy is just a hypocritical and rough guy who only knows how to spend money but not how to look at things."

Ai Baozhu: “…”

She was also silent for a moment, then decisively changed the subject: "I don't know what the rules of tomorrow's entertainment competition are. Can I find out about this in advance?"

Although he or she needs to participate in tomorrow's competition, it doesn't prevent her from being curious about it.

"You can ask in advance, but it's not necessary." Lei Zeen nodded and shook his head, "It's an entertainment competition, why do you have to be so serious? Having fun is the most important thing. It would be meaningless if you knew the rules in advance."

That's true. Ai Baozhu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

As soon as they returned to the hotel after dinner, they saw Feng Lan waiting at the door. As soon as she saw them, Feng Lan walked over quickly and broke the big news: "Something will happen at tomorrow's entertainment event."

"What's the matter?" Lei Ze'en and Meng Huai's expressions immediately became serious and they asked about the details.

However, Feng Lan just shook her head: "I don't know either. I only saw a lot of people screaming and running around in the audience."

"Audience seats..." Lei Zeen said thoughtfully, "Do you want to attack the audience? Many of the visitors are indeed well-known figures. If they are really captured, not only will the attackers gain a lot of bargaining chips, but it will also cause great damage to the reputation of the supernatural government."

Hearing his words, Su Bei shook his head in his heart. Feng Lan's [prophecy] was indeed correct, but his perspective clearly gave others a wrong perception. It goes without saying that the protagonists will be the ones who suffer in the end, so the enemy is likely to attack the players on the field, not the spectators outside the field.

If they blindly believe that the enemy is going to attack the audience, they will inevitably increase the management of the audience seats and neglect to protect the players on the stage.

The teachers who didn't have a God's perspective couldn't realize this. Meng Huan and Lei Ze'en simply told them a few words and then turned and left. They were going to discuss this matter with the organizers and must not let the audience be in danger.

After they left, everyone returned to their dormitories. Mo Xiaotian lay on the bed, looking sideways in the direction of Su Bei, and after hesitating for a while, he called out, "Brother Bei..."

At that time, Su Bei was reading the comic book "Superpower King" on his phone. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and continued to look at his phone while jokingly saying, "It's rare that you can scream so beautifully. What's the matter?"

Only Mo Xiaotian would call him "Brother Bei" occasionally, it was impossible for anyone else to call him that.

"Will tomorrow's entertainment competition definitely go on?" Unexpectedly, Mo Xiaotian asked a very abrupt question.

This time Su Bei was really surprised. He put down his phone and turned to look at him: "Why are you asking this suddenly?"

You have to know that the incident that will happen tomorrow is most likely planned by the "Black Flash" organization, and it is aimed at those who participate in the entertainment competition. Mo Xiaotian asked if the entertainment competition will definitely continue. Is it because his conscience has awakened and he wants to remind them not to participate?

He was right. Mo Xiaotian's answer directly verified Su Bei's guess: "I just think... since Feng Lan said something is going to happen tomorrow, and the entertainment competition itself does not count towards the results of the three-school competition, why not just cancel it?"

"Such a logical statement actually came out of your mouth." Su Bei couldn't help but sigh, "Maybe you can talk to Teacher Meng and the others about this idea. Anyway, I support you 100%."

He supported Mo Xiaotian's idea with both hands. If the entertainment competition could be cancelled, Mo Xiaotian would definitely be credited with a big achievement. It obviously didn't count towards the points, so it wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't held.

Unfortunately, Mo Xiaotian just buried his head in the soft pillow again, and then answered in a sullen voice: "No, the teachers should have their own ideas."

Mo Xiaotian, who had closed his eyes, did not notice that the moment he turned his head, Su Bei's face suddenly turned gloomy, and there was an undispellable cloud in his purple eyes.

How could Mo Xiaotian say such a thing or why would he not support the actions of the "Black Flash" organization?

Judging from his previous performance, Mo Xiaotian almost completely supports the "Black Flash" organization without distinguishing right from wrong. His concept of good and evil is already weak, and he has been trained by the "Black Flash" organization since he was a child, so he will naturally listen to them.

But now, he actually developed a rebellious consciousness!

How is this possible?

Su Bei was not saying that Mo Xiaotian would not be able to resist the "Black Flash" organization, but unless there was a huge conflict of principles, he should not oppose the organization's mission, just like every time before.

Therefore, his current abnormal performance only made Su Bei think of one possibility, that is, the organization's mission this time may be different from the past, and even a little bit contrary to Mo Xiaotian's principles.

Mo Xiaotian's principles were close to zero. How could they go against Mo Xiaotian's principles when it came to their affairs?

Sorry, Su Bei could only think of some very bad answers, such as - this time "Black Flash" wanted their lives.

All the actions of the "Black Flash" organization before were without exception to capture them, and Mo Xiaotian supported all of them. Maybe he even thought that after "Black Flash" captured them and brainwashed them, they would be in the same camp, which was a good thing.

Mo Xiaotian should have some feelings for these classmates. Su Bei had no doubt that if they were in danger, Mo Xiaotian would be willing to risk his life to save them.

Therefore, if the latest goal of the "Black Flash" organization is to kill them, then Mo Xiaotian might indeed have this kind of lost expression.

Although this is not the only possibility, it was indeed Su Bei's first thought.

What can he do? He really wants to quit the entertainment competition now. As I said before, the protagonists probably won't die until the finale, but he is different. If the "Black Flash" organization targets him, he may really die.

But after a short moment, Su Bei's complexion returned to normal. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were clear.

He is no longer the man he was when the comics were first updated. He is much stronger and wiser than before. He has gone through so much trouble to equip himself with a complete fate-related ability. If he is still so afraid of dying early, then it would be a waste of such a powerful ability as [Fate Gear].

No matter what the Black Flash organization wants to do, to determine whether he will die, he only needs to look at the fate compass above his head. If the big needle is in the lower half of the circle, he will adjust it to the upper half. Although this consumes a lot of mental energy, it is still his own life that can be saved, so he is willing to spend as much mental energy as possible.

Although he understood the situation, Su Bei was no longer in the mood to continue reading comics. After all, it was a matter of life and death, and it was difficult for him to calm down completely.

Anyway, there is no rush to read the comics this time, as there is nothing special in them. It is better to wait until tomorrow when everything is done and then read them all at once. This will also save him the trouble of opening the comics and forums again and again.

At eight o'clock the next morning, everyone gathered at the venue. The contestants stayed in the lounge, waiting for the host to announce the specific rules of this entertainment competition.

"I didn't expect it to be handled this way in the end." Si Zhaohua looked out through the French window of the lounge at the empty audience seats, "But this is indeed a good idea."

Jiang Tianming nodded: "Let the audience watch our game on the big screen in the hotel, so that the previous arrangements made by the people behind the scenes will be useless."

"There are powerful psychics guarding the hotel, so there will be no problem." Lan Subing looked a little happy, "I thought the entertainment competition would not be held."

She was quite interested in today's entertainment competition. Although she had to compete under the attention of the public, after the competitions in the past few days, she was no longer so afraid of it.

Of course the main reason is that she can hardly pay attention to the audience on the stage. Otherwise, with Lan Subing's current level of social anxiety, it is absolutely impossible for her to want to participate in any competition.
