"Whoosh!"
The roaring waves of noise surged like the tide, layer upon layer.
A clash between star-level contestants, a dazzling battle, and an underdog turning the tables in a desperate situation.
From ancient gladiatorial arenas to modern concerts and stadiums, such contests had always been lively, deafening, and blood-pumping.
This battle had ignited everyone's emotions. The crucial point was Yuanshi Tianzun's subsequent string of moves, each one beyond everyone's expectations. First, he inexplicably defused what should have been a guaranteed loss, then he put a mask on the Maoshan Sorcerer's Corpse Fiend.
With just a few moves, he reversed the situation. Finally, when that savage close-combat Corpse Fiend entered the field, only one thought remained in the audience's minds:
He has a Corpse Fiend?
Only a spectacular reversal where the weak defeated the strong could provoke such cheers and applause.
A steady, unsurprising outcome could never make the audience's emotions erupt.
"So Yuanshi Tianzun had been deliberately showing weakness all along, right? He kept his Corpse Fiend outside the arena, waited until the Maoshan Sorcerer let down his guard, then struck to decide the victory?"
"Wonderful, absolutely wonderful! From sealing the Maoshan Sorcerer's Corpse Fiend to summoning his own Corpse Fiend to defeat the enemy, I feel like it was all one scheme after another, but I can't figure it out right now."
"As expected of a genius who cleared two S-rank instances. Has that Maoshan Sorcerer cleared an S-rank instance? Has he even cleared an A-rank one? What gives him the right to fight our Yuanshi Tianzun?"
"I can't understand it, but I'm completely blown away. Once we return to reality, let's check out the official analysis post."
"Huh? Didn't they say we weren't allowed to reveal the details?"
"There are official analysis posts every year. They won't reveal
