Chapter 457 - 457 Unpropitious Strength, Stronger
Translator: 549690339
Those who advanced to the second round naturally had even greater strength. Jiang Xu had to use seventy percent of his capability. This time, his opponent was from Bear Country.
Compared to the previous contestant from Little India, the level of strength had gone up a notch.
However, Jiang Xu dealt with it with ease, still having plenty of room to maneuver.
On the other hand, An Nuonuo’s opponent, Li Sanyuan, was sweating profusely.
From the beginning of the match, he had been at a disadvantage. After the first round ended, filled with encouragement from her beloved, Nuonuo was full of vigor.
Her performance exceeded expectations, as if she had grown wings. Determination filled her beautiful face.
And in her eyes burned a fierce fighting spirit.
Her fingers moved so swiftly they seemed to create afterimages.
Even those godlike dancers from the dance crews didn’t have such fast hand speed.
“Wow, I won,” An Nuonuo suddenly cheered.
Looking at the match time, it was four minutes and thirty-six seconds.
Faster than the first round.
Li Sanyuan was so frustrated he almost spat blood.
As Little Hammers, their tradition was to cheat and never admit defeat when losing.
And this time was no different.
He immediately protested, claiming that An Nuonuo cheated and demanded a check.
After the relevant staff had checked and found no issues, he threw a tantrum, claiming the results were invalid and demanded a rematch.
The live broadcast was streamed back home.
Countless viewers cursed openly.
They had never seen such shamelessness.
Little Hammer could also watch the live broadcast.
But the reactions were completely different there. Many were leaving comments on online platforms. “Hmph, that woman obviously cheated!” “How could she possibly win over us, the universe’s number one?” “Cheating is just despicable.”
“She must apologize and have her result canceled!”
Of course, with an event of this magnitude, there were no Little Hammer judges involved.
So facing Li Sanyuan’s unreasonable commotion, his qualification for subsequent matches was directly canceled.
In other words, they were out of the team event.
They only had one remaining teammate who could only compete in individual events now.
This outcome naturally caused intense dissatisfaction from Little Hammer.
But who cared about them.
They were just jumping jesters after all.
As the match reached six minutes, Jiang Xu and Lu Chao also won against their opponents, one after another.
Jiang Xu couldn’t help but look towards Jin Dapao, who had also secured a victory in just over six minutes.
If there was anyone Jiang Xu was truly concerned about, it was definitely this genius.
After all, in a few years, this person would have a net worth reaching hundreds of billions and his social media software would sweep the globe.
The current Jin Dapao still seemed quite inexperienced.
Jiang Xu’s gaze flickered.
Could he take this opportunity to strike a blow at Jin Dapao, causing his resolve to shatter?
If successful, it would be like nipping a mogul in the bud.
After all, the fewer capable people in the enemy camp, the more advantageous it was for one’s own side.
After two rounds of competition, everyone was drained.
The organizers provided food and restrooms.
The advancing contestants could now rest for an hour. Jiang Xu’s team had indeed achieved outstanding results. In other countries, in three-person teams, at most only two remained. This was also a matter of national pride.
If Jiang Xu and his team hadn’t turned off their phones, they would have been inundated with calls by now.
An hour later, the third round began.
Due to the sudden drop in numbers, Jiang Xu found himself matched against Lu Chao.
Lu Chao was all excitement, “Good, let’s have a fair fight and see how I dominate you!”
A few minutes later.
Lu Chao, “Bro, can’t I just call you brother? Stop hitting so hard, save me some face.”
But inside, he was utterly shocked.
When had Jiang Xu become so terrifyingly strong?
He was even fiercer than those programmers who had been working for decades.
The key was that he was still so young, with so much potential yet to be unlocked.
What was funnier was that An Nuonuo actually matched up with Little Hammer once again.
This person’s name was Jin Dapao.
He was a four-eyed guy, with a very sleazy appearance.
At the moment, staring at An Nuonuo, his eyes were blazing with fire, “Watch how I defeat you and avenge my previous humiliation!”
Eight minutes later.
“Ahh, you jerk, you must have cheated, I’ll kill you!”
Enraged and humiliated, Jin Dapao yanked his keyboard away and ferociously hurled it towards An Nuonuo.
Luckily, in light of Little Hammer’s abysmal character, the organizers had already arranged for someone to watch Jin Dapao.
Before he could even hit An Nuonuo, he was subdued.
At that moment, Jiang Xu had just won against his own opponent.
Seeing this, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
This guy had touched his bottom line.
It was bad enough that he was outmatched, but he even lost his cool and tried to lash out violently.
His behavior was despicable to the extreme.
The rest of the competitors on the scene, as well as the audience, all showed their disdain.
In terms of being despicable, Little Hammer was still incredibly dominant.
In the fourth round, only four people were left.
Jiang Xu, An Nuonuo, Brother Zha Kebo, and one from Ghost Country, named Jingbian Shengkou.
The battle for the top three was about to start.
Jiang Xu chose to face Jingbian Shengkou, while An Nuonuo was up against Brother Zha Kebo.
The competition begins!
Jiang Xu’s eyes were filled with raging flames.
Whenever a compatriot faced someone from Ghost Country, their bloodline would awaken automatically.
Strength increased by 1000%, gaining an endless battle BUFF. Menacing strength, stronger in the face of ghosts.
Damn!
How terrifying was Jiang Xu with his full power unleashed?
Jingbian Shengkou felt it immediately.
He was like a small boat tossed about in the waves, at risk of capsizing at any moment.
59 seconds!
It took Jiang Xu just 59 seconds to win.
This caused a commotion among the crowd.
Jingbian Shengkou’s face turned an ashen color.
How could the gap be so huge?
It was no different from being instantly killed.
The news, once it reached the homeland, caused numerous netizens to cheer.
Jiang Xu was hailed as a hero against Ghost Country’s forces.
Then, a portion of netizens began to impulsively buy products from Jiang Xu’s company.
Mineral water, for example, was ordered in bulk. Several games received massive in-game purchases.
He also received a lot of money in donations for several of his novels. This directly drove the stock prices of Nuomimi Novel to soar to the limit.
On the other side, An Nuonuo lost to Brother Zha Kebo in the PK. However, if ranked by points, An Nuonuo was still in third place. The individual competition was approaching its critical moment. Before that, both sides were granted one hour of rest.
In the rest area, Brother Zha Kebo’s two teammates both wore gloomy expressions.
That guy named Jiang Xu is terrifyingly strong.” “We must find a way to prevent him from winning.” Brother Zha Kebo, not a stickler for rules, asked, “Do you have any good ideas?” One of his teammates sneered, “I’ve already made arrangements; just wait and watch the show..”
