"It's over?"

"No way... Did he take him out in one move again?"

"The second contestant from Star River University, Wang Xuan, was instantly defeated by Jiang Ye??"

"Damn it!!" After a brief silence, over a hundred thousand spectators erupted in a thunderous uproar.

Stunning!

Absolutely stunning.

This battle showcased the terrifying strength of Jiang Ye.

Against the second contestant from Star River University, second only to Li Qi, Jiang Ye only used one move!

An instant defeat!

...

"What's going on?"

"I... was taken out in an instant?" Below the stage, Wang Xuan was also bewildered.

He hadn't even had the chance to make a move before Jiang Ye instantly defeated him!

"Was that just now an Ultimate Technique?"

"Impossible." Wang Xuan's heart was in disbelief: "The match just started, how could he possibly execute an Ultimate Technique so quickly?"

Ultimate Techniques need time to build up.

They require intense combat to continually build momentum until the Essence, Qi, and Spirit all peak, allowing the Ultimate Technique to be unleashed naturally.

But Jiang Ye? Starting off with his strongest move?

Who's ever played like this?

...

The audience gasped continuously.

Meanwhile, the expressions of the teachers were all solemn.

"A complete Fourth Ultimate Technique!"

"Jiang Ye managed to unleash a Fourth Ultimate Technique within seconds of taking the stage?"

"This indicates that his control over Star Energy is extraordinarily impressive."

"A peerless genius." Teachers from various schools were all taken aback.

Indeed, Ultimate Techniques require time to build up.

But that's the case for ordinary people.

Certain geniuses can unleash the strongest Ultimate Technique in an incredibly short time.

Such people often have absolute control over Star Energy, either due to their Cultivation Technique or their innate Talent.

In reality, it's often the latter.

Because even with a Celestial Tier Upper Cultivation Technique, it's hard to execute such a terrifying Ultimate Technique in such a short period.

Even a First-level Civilization's heritage might not achieve this.

So the teachers speculated that it was due to Jiang Ye's Talent.

"Who is stronger, Jiang Ye or Li Qi?"

"That's really hard to say now."

"Li Qi hasn't even used his Innate Ability yet, and I've heard his ability is quite terrifying, coming from an extraordinary noble family."

"This year's Genius Cup champion will be decided between them." The teachers discussed.

On the other side.

Elder Bai squinted his eyes.

Compared to Jiang Ye unleashing an Ultimate Technique, he was more curious about why this kid could cultivate a complete Fourth Ultimate Technique so quickly?

"The Fourth Move of the Great Sun Spear Technique is a massive bottleneck."

"Even I was stuck for over half a year back then." Elder Bai thought to himself: "This kid hadn't learned even the Third Form half a year ago, right?"

"So quickly? And he already comprehended a complete Fourth Ultimate Technique?"

The fast cultivation speed can still be explained.

But to overcome such a huge bottleneck so swiftly, that's rather illogical.

"Maybe this is what it means to be a genius." Elder Bai mused internally.

...

On the stage.

Jiang Ye stood with his spear, frowning slightly.

Wang Xuan had been so confident before the battle began, Jiang Ye thought he might have a satisfying fight this time.

But the result...

Utter disappointment!

"Could it be that I've really become this strong?" Jiang Ye shook his head, his figure flickered as he returned to the waiting area.

He had already advanced to the semifinals, only three more matches to go.

...

The competition continued.

In the second match, Yun Qing'Er faced Zhou Jin.

Yun Qing'Er won.

In the third match, Lin Qingxue faced Zhu Bufan.

Lin Qingxue won.

In the fourth match, Li Qi faced Xu Wan'Er.

Li Qi won.

Thus, the semifinals were decided!

Li Qi, Lin Qingxue, Yun Qing'Er, Jiang Ye.

"Finally, the semifinals are about to begin."

"The championship battle isn't far away now."

"Jiang Ye! Penglai's strongest! Take the championship!"

"Lin Qingxue, my wife." The enthusiasm of over a hundred thousand spectators grew even more fervent.

Semifinals!

About to commence.

...

"The first semifinal match, Yun Qing'Er versus Jiang Ye."

As Chu Jingye's voice fell.

Two figures appeared on the stage.

"Yun Qing'Er." Jiang Ye looked at the delicate girl opposite him.

For Yun Qing'Er to advance to the semifinals, it already demonstrated that her strength was quite extraordinary.

Jiang Ye had watched her battles.

She could unleash over a thousand hammer strikes in a second, extremely fierce.

However.

Compared to Jiang Ye, her strength still fell short, and this showdown had almost no suspense.

"Jiang Ye." Yun Qing'Er said timidly, "Let's start."

Jiang Ye's expression shifted.

Was she planning to do the same as in the Newborn Tournament?

"No need to intentionally lose to me," Jiang Ye said earnestly, "I want to have a proper match with you."

"Ah." Yun Qing'Er looked up, surprised, and glanced at him.

After a moment.

She nodded, "Okay."

[Match begins]

As soon as the subtitle dropped, Yun Qing'Er immediately moved, transforming into a Shadow.

"Boom!"

Boom, boom, boom!

She indeed followed Jiang Ye's suggestion, not holding back, unleashing the fiercest onslaught from the start.

The dense hammer shadows, accompanied by scorching hammer winds, engulfed Jiang Ye.

"Quite oppressive." Jiang Ye's gaze sharpened.

Yun Qing'Er was indeed very strong.

Under such an outburst, even an average powerhouse at the late Second Break stage might be crushed instantly.

"Clang!"

Jiang Ye gripped his long spear tightly and fearlessly charged forward to meet her.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The two clashed intensely; Yun Qing'Er's Hammer Technique was meticulous, extremely refined, and even Jiang Ye found few openings.

Luckily.

Jiang Ye's Star Energy power and Star Energy explosion were far superior to Yun Qing'Er's.

Although Yun Qing'Er used the Hammer Technique, known for its strong power, every hammer's might was still less than Jiang Ye's spear.

After numerous collisions, Yun Qing'Er gradually fell into a disadvantage.
