"I heard the people from Paradise Island have arrived, and they're going to get involved. Today's competition might even be canceled, did you know that?"

Yang Yan wasn't in the mood to watch the two people fighting on stage, and instead asked Situ Tingting.

"Paradise Island? What are those guys here for?"

Situ Tingting was first stunned, then asked in surprise.

"You didn't know?"

Hearing Situ Tingting's words, Yang Yan looked at her with some confusion.

Logically, with the power of the Heaven and Earth Society, she shouldn't be unaware of such news, right?

"No idea."

Situ Tingting gently shook her head:

"However, last night Jin was summoned by Saraf and the others, and hasn't returned since."

"At that time, I didn't know what it was about. Now it seems, it must be because of what you said."

Just as the two were still speculating whether today's competition would proceed, Jin finally returned.

He first glanced at Yang Yan, then said to Situ Tingting:

"Today's competition is canceled! Moreover, future competitions will also be held in a different location."

Situ Tingting frowned and asked:

"Jin, what's going on? Why suddenly change the location?"

Jin chuckled bitterly and said:

"This was proposed by the United States' officials. They say the Hidden World people here have exceeded their control limits, and they're afraid these people will cause trouble here."

Yang Yan immediately asked:

"Did they say when the next competition is, and where it will be held?"

Jin turned his head to look at Yang Yan:

"The next competition is tomorrow, but the location is changed to the Hawaii Islands."

"Oh? Hawaii?"

Yang Yan said with some surprise:

"Those guys really have wild ideas! To come up with such a plan."

In fact, upon hearing Jin say the competition time was changed to tomorrow and the location to Hawaii, he already knew what the other party was thinking.

"Do you know their purpose?"

Jin, seasoned and astute, clearly read something from Yang Yan's eyes, and couldn't help but ask.

Last night, when Saraf called him over, officials from the United States were already there.

When they proposed today's competition be canceled, moved to tomorrow, and relocated to Hawaii, Jin had been pondering their true intention ever since.

Unfortunately, he racked his brains but never got a reasonable answer.

"Control, of course!"

Yang Yan sneered and said:

"I really can't think of anything else they would aim for other than that."

"Whether in the present world or the Hidden World, these self-righteous people love to keep everything in their grasp, as if they're the bosses of the world."

"And since this place is quite far from the U.S. mainland, if the Hidden World people here want to do something, they simply wouldn't be able to stop it in time."

"If it's changed to Hawaii, then it's a completely different story."

"I remember, they have an entire fleet positioned there. Plus, Area 51 has a branch over there too, with talents aplenty and a strong military presence."

Jin nodded in sudden realization:

"I see! Most of the participants this time are A-level Ability Users, they can't risk being careless."

"And to deal with A-level Ability Users, the fleet's offensive capabilities can indeed inflict massive damage."

Yang Yan waved his hand:

"Alright, since there's no competition today, I'll be leaving. No need to waste time here."

"Tomorrow, I'll directly head to the Hawaii Islands to find you all. We'll contact each other by phone then."

After saying that, Yang Yan walked straight out of the competition arena.

"This guy doesn't seem to care about this competition at all!"

"And I noticed, from the beginning he hasn't paid any attention to these competitors, regardless if they are strong or weak, he hasn't even glanced at them."

After Yang Yan left, Situ Tingting muttered quietly, looking at his disappearing silhouette.

"Haha! This is probably the confidence of a true powerhouse!"

Jin chuckled softly:

"Perhaps those we see as powerful are actually like babies in his eyes."

He, being older and well-experienced, naturally saw that Yang Yan held nothing but disdain for these competitors.

Considering his recent behavior, there was only one explanation — his strength was enough to crush these people.

"Jin, I've always wanted to ask you, why are you so assured letting this guy participate with me?"

"If it's because you had no one else, I wouldn't believe it. At least Senior Brother Ruofeng would definitely be qualified."

Situ Tingting asked, puzzled.

"You'll have to ask the helm master about that. I'm not too clear on the matter inside."

Jin smiled and shook his head.

Leaving the deserted island, Yang Yan naturally went home first.

However, upon returning home, he discovered not a single person in sight, which puzzled him.

He knew Zhou Hanyun and Han Ruyu were busy with the jewelry store opening.

What about the others?

They seemed to have nothing to do, right?

After staying at home for a short while, Yang Yan couldn't sit still.

He thought about it and decided to visit Shiya Jie and the others' shop.

Speaking of which, since their shop opened, he hadn't visited even once.

Finally locating Shiya Jie and the others' shop, Yang Yan was almost going insane.

He had asked before where Shiya Jie's shop was located, and Shiya Jie had told him.

However, for Yang Yan, who had no understanding of English, it was undoubtedly a daunting task.

Holding a map of Queens, he made guesses and wandered around all the places he thought matched; only then did he find Shiya Jie and the others' store.

"Damn! What kind of bird map is this, what's even written on here?"

Yang Yan crumpled the map into a ball, threw it on the ground fiercely, and then stomped on it a few times for good measure.

Taking a deep breath to calm his frustrated mind, he forced a smile, as if nothing had happened, and walked towards Shiya Jie and the others' shop.

"Hey! Did you three beauties miss me?"

When he got into the shop and saw Shiya Jie and Wang Xue busy around a car, Yang Yan waved at them with a smile.

"What are you doing here?"

Seeing Yang Yan come in, Shiya Jie's face changed instantly, and the tool in her hand even fell to the ground with a clatter.

She still had fresh memories of last night!

She had barely managed to put those events aside with her busy work for the time being. Now, seeing Yang Yan was like a reaction or a stimulus, igniting that burning sensation in Shiya Jie's body all over again.

To the point her whole body was slightly trembling.
