The Strongest Support

In truth, Xiao He felt it was inappropriate to pry into other people's dreams, but he simply couldn't resist his curiosity.

"I'm sorry, baby, I'll go outside and apologize to you," Xiao He thought to himself, then reached out and touched the light and shadow representing Ye Wanqing.

The surrounding scenery changed, and in the blink of an eye, Xiao He arrived in Ye Wanqing's dream.

Upon entering this dream, Xiao He felt exceptionally comfortable.

Because this dream was of their home in Beichang City, Xiao He saw another version of himself and Ye Wanqing busy in the room through the window. The lights in the house were comfortable and soft, and the neighborhood was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus flowers that he liked.

Both of them looked different, more mature, and the wedding rings on their hands and the wedding photos on the wall indicated that they were probably already married.

Seeing this, Xiao He couldn't help but chuckle: This girl, she's just stubborn...

Xiao He floated to the window and looked inside: Ye Wanqing was busy in the kitchen, while he was in the living room coaxing a four or five-year-old girl. A little boy was sleeping in the stroller next to them, and Tuantuan was lying on the cat tree next to them, surveying its territory like a king.

"This Little Pufferfish is really planning to have two," Xiao He said with a smile and a sigh.

However, since it was a dream, the faces of the little girl and the little boy were blurry, and their features were completely obscured.

"Honey, dinner's ready! Come and serve the dishes," Ye Wanqing called out cheerfully from the kitchen.

The way she called him "husband" made Xiao He's bones melt: This girl, when she gets all coquettish, really can't Tuantuan.

"Hey, you're here, sweetheart." Xiao He responded from inside the room, leading the little girl towards the kitchen. "Come on, let's help Mom get the groceries."

Then, the family of four sat down at the table and ate together.

Ye Wanqing watched him eat heartily with a smile, then put some vegetables on the little girl's plate and gave her a few words of advice.

The little girl looked reluctant, but then Xiao He said something that made Ye Wanqing laugh, and she reached out and patted him.

As a result, the little devil in the stroller was woken up and started fussing. Ye Wanqing quickly rocked the stroller to soothe him, her face beaming with tenderness and happiness.

"This is her dream..." Xiao He murmured to himself, suddenly overwhelmed with emotion: What an ordinary yet happy dream it was! The whole world consisted of just the four of them, their family of four, and a cat. There was no great wealth, no luxury cars or mansions, and no "Yinglong" or "White Marsh." All they had were simple meals and everyday family life.

Xiao He, a grown man, was almost moved to tears.

"Wanqing, I will definitely help you realize this dream..." Xiao He murmured to himself, "Because this is also my dream..."

After saying this, Xiao He exited the dream and switched back to the real world. His previously agitated mood, caused by Collection "Trigger," had now completely calmed down.

However, judging from Ye Wanqing and Yue Feng's expressions, they were neither asleep nor dreaming.

"Old Xiao!" Ye Wanqing frowned when she saw Xiao He. "Where did you go?! You scared me to death!"

"I had a dream." Xiao He stepped forward, gently cupped her cheeks, and said softly with a smile, "Alright, let's stop playing. Let's go home."

"?" Ye Wanqing tilted her head, looking a little confused, but still nodded. "Yeah, go back and rest. You have a match this afternoon, how can you have the energy to fight if you're exhausted like this?"

"Hmm... my Xiaoqing is right." Xiao He pressed his forehead against Ye Wanqing's forehead, then used Dimensional Walker to take Ye Wanqing back to the room in the arena.

On the deserted island, Yue Feng stood alone, looking around with a bewildered expression. "???"

As soon as they returned to the room, Xiao He couldn't help but kiss Ye Wanqing's soft lips.

"Eek..." Ye Wanqing was slightly surprised, but did not resist.

Only after Xiao He relented did she ask coquettishly, "What are you doing? What were you dreaming about?"

"I dreamt that we got married, lived in that small two-bedroom apartment, and had a son and a daughter. Although our life was ordinary, we were very happy," Xiao He said softly, gently nuzzling Ye Wanqing's nose.

Ye Wanqing blushed, a happy smile appearing on her lips, "I never said I wanted to marry you..."

"I will definitely make you agree, even if it means killing every other man on Earth." Xiao He smiled as he gently kissed her forehead.

"Oh, don't say that..." Ye Wanqing playfully punched him, complaining, "You're a superhero, after all."

"None of that matters." Xiao He wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close. "Only you are the most important."

"What's wrong? Why are you saying all this sweet talk..." Ye Wanqing cupped her face, both happy and shy. "Let's make it clear beforehand, if you want to be intimate, you have to wait until tonight, okay? No matter how much you say, that can't change that..."

"Hmm." Xiao He nodded, then gave Ye Wanqing a final kiss on the lips. He checked the time and said, "It's one o'clock now, there's still an hour left. Can I use it as a chest pillow?"

"Hmm..." Ye Wanqing smiled and nodded, then sat down on the bed and opened her arms to Xiao He.

Xiao He vaguely felt that he had forgotten something, but he couldn't remember it at the moment. Besides, Ye Wanqing's sense of justice was beckoning to him, so he didn't bother to think about it anymore and nestled into the arms of his lovely girlfriend.

At 1:40 PM, Xiao He and Ye Wanqing tidied up and came to the common lounge to prepare for their match.

Upon seeing Xiao He and Ye Wanqing, Cui Man asked curiously, "Have you two seen Qiongqi? We searched the common room for ages but couldn't find him. We were even planning to have him lead the charge this afternoon."

"..." Xiao He paused for a moment, then finally remembered what he had forgotten. Ye Wanqing glared at him fiercely from the side.

"I'll be right back," Xiao He cleared his throat and said, then used the Dimensional Walker to return to the deserted island.

At this moment, Yue Feng took off his shirt and blouse, went shirtless, rolled up his trousers, took off his shoes and socks, and lay down in the shade of a coconut tree, with a blade of grass in his mouth, leisurely enjoying the cool air with his legs crossed, until Xiao He appeared in front of him.

"You son of a bitch! How dare you..." Yue Feng roared angrily upon seeing Xiao He.

Xiao He grabbed his arm and said, "Hurry up, the competition is about to start. Sister Man you'd be the first to go this afternoon."

"Aha! No problem!" Yue Feng's attention was instantly diverted. He grabbed his clothes and shoes from the ground and hurriedly put them on. "It's only right that I lead the charge! A successful first battle will boost morale, right!?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xiao He nodded repeatedly, then led Yue Feng back to the players' lounge.

Upon seeing Yue Feng, Cui Man breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "Get ready, you, Yinglong, and Horned Dragon will be in the first match."

"I... I... I'm finally going to fight alongside Yinglong!" Qin Weize exclaimed excitedly, while Han Tianyu spat out in annoyance, "Sister Man, me too..."

"Don't worry, you'll have your chance," Cui Man comforted her. "There are still three countries to go today; everyone has a chance."

"Go for it, Old Xiao!" Ye Wanqing waved her little fist at Xiao He and smiled.

"My Little Pufferfish is cheering me on, we'll definitely win this round." Xiao He rubbed her little head, then softened his voice, "Be a good girl here, okay? I'll be right back."

"Hmm..." Ye Wanqing blushed and nodded gently. She didn't know why Xiao He had suddenly become more clingy to her, but she was still quite happy inside: Hehe, I'll reward my Old Xiao tonight.

Xiao He, Qin Weize, and Yue Feng took the elevator to the arena to face off against the three members of R Country Team.

The Mutant on R Country Team are quite strong; Ring Hero, Charge Hero, and Soul Blade all possess Superpower and strength. However, when Xiao He arrived on the field, he only saw Ring Hero, an old face.

The other two Mutant, one male and one female, were described by the referee as follows: the male Mutant was named "Brad," and wore a red combat suit with a cape; while the female Mutant was named "Shadow Flash," and wore a white bodysuit with short, neat hair, somewhat resembling Captain Marvel.

Both of them are white, and are clearly foreign aid sent by the M Country.

Xiao He whispered a reminder, "Be careful, test the waters first..."

"Screech!" Before Xiao He could finish speaking, Yue Feng rushed forward.

"Sigh." Xiao He shook his head and sighed, signaling Qin Weize to hold back for now. Yue Feng's ability to withstand direct attacks is extremely high, so there's no need to worry about him for the time being. It's a good opportunity to use this to test what the two newcomers' Superpower are.

As Yue Feng approached, Brad picked up a handful of pebbles from the ground and threw them, but the pebbles immediately transformed into countless arrow-shaped blades, piercing Yue Feng's body.

A crisp "ping-pong" sound rang out, and the blade was unsurprisingly deflected.

Meanwhile, Shadow Flash began running around the field, seemingly aimlessly, but Xiao He noticed that she left many shadows on the field.

"Interesting... I really want to see what kind of Superpower they can trigger for me," Xiao He thought to himself.

Unable to stop Yue Feng's advance, Brad then took Ring Hero. He raised his hand towards Yue Feng, and an Energy Rings descended from the sky, encircling Yue Feng's ankles and binding his legs together. Yue Feng stumbled and fell to the ground.

"You go and deal with that woman," Xiao He instructed Qin Weize, then kept an eye on Ring Hero: although this guy's abilities seemed strange, they were actually quite strong, and Xiao He was a little worried about letting others handle him.

"Hmph, here we go again? This time I've come up with a surefire way to defeat you!" Ring Hero said smugly, then raised his hands to summon more than a dozen Energy Rings, took a deep breath, and suddenly threw them at Xiao He.

The Energy Rings bounced back and forth in mid-air like pinballs.

"Is this a joke?" Xiao He frowned, but two of the Energy Rings suddenly collided with him, then emitted a dazzling light and exploded with a "boom!" The explosion also detonated the other Energy Rings.

The powerful impact kicked up a cloud of dust, instantly engulfing Xiao He's figure.

But the next instant, Xiao He appeared behind Ring Hero, reached out and pressed his hand on Ring Hero's head, sending the shockwave into his body.

Ring Hero's body shuddered violently, then he foamed at the mouth and collapsed to the ground.

Misha.

"This..." The host was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my god!? Yinglong knocked out Ring Hero in just five seconds! Someone, stop this man!"

Xiao He has almost finished researching Ring Hero's Superpower, so there's no need to delay any longer; a quick victory is best.

Yue Feng had already broken free of the Energy Rings around his feet and was rapidly closing in on Brad, then he threw a punch.

Brad a nimble leap, the swarm of blades he had thrown earlier returned to his feet, becoming stepping stones. While somersaulting in mid-air, Brad threw even more blades at Yue Feng; thousands of tiny blades attacked Yue Feng from all directions. Yue Feng, however, showed no intention of dodging, instead turning and leaping towards Brad.

"This idiot! His abilities will be exposed!" Xiao He scolded irritably, raising his hand towards Yue Feng: Forced Mediation!

Before the blades even touched Yue Feng's body, they struck an invisible wall and bounced off. Then, Xiao He canceled the Forced Mediation Domain before Yue Feng's attack could be launched, so as not to interfere with Yue Feng's attack.

"Drink!" Yue Feng's fist struck Brad's chest, but Brad's body instantly transformed into countless sharp blades, sweeping towards Yue Feng. However, from Xiao He's perspective, it was actually just that Brad had taken off his coat and turned it into blades; he himself had simply used a "golden cicada shedding its shell" technique, stepping on the blades to get away from Yue Feng.

"Running around everywhere like a fly!" Yue Feng said irritably, waving his hand to wipe away the blades that were sweeping towards him, as if wiping away leaves that had stuck to his body, but a large number of small blades were still stuck in his back.

"Damn it..." Xiao He thought to himself that things were not going well. If it were a smart Mutant, they would have already noticed the clues about Yue Feng's Superpower by now. However, Yue Feng was not the type to play tricks to cover up the loopholes in his Superpower, so he was completely unaware of it.

However, these blades are too small, and the camera is some distance away from them. The Mutant on the field might be able to spot them, but those outside the field might not.

If the battle is resolved quickly, perhaps no one will discover Yue Feng's Superpower.

At this moment, the blades danced around Brad like butterflies, lifting him into the air.

"Damn it, get down here!" Yue Feng reached down and dug up a boulder as tall as a man from the ground, then threw it at Brad. Brad placed his hand on the boulder, and as if by magic, the boulder transformed into countless blades that scattered.

Yue Feng's body burst out from behind the boulder, forcefully passing through the dense array of blades to reach Brad.

Brad prepared to dodge, but found his body fixed in place by an unseen force. Looking down, he saw Xiao He raising his hand to him from the ground: It's Psychokinesis!

So Yue Feng slapped him across the face, as if swatting a fly, and sent him crashing to the ground.

Brad groaned and crashed heavily to the ground, a cloud of dust spreading out as his body sank into the earth.

Yue Feng then landed on the ground, but he also suffered quite a few injuries. Yue Feng's front was not completely indestructible; rather, it was roughly equivalent to a Level 6 physique. Therefore, he was also injured when he was impacted during the Earthquake he dealt with with Xiao He last time.

The same thing happened now; he had also been stabbed in the front by some blades, but there were many more wounds on his back.

While Yue Feng was fighting Brad, Qin Weize was also engaged in a fierce battle with Shadow Flash.

Qin Weize unleashed a powerful attack at Shadow Flash, but Shadow Flash's figure flickered and appeared a short distance behind Qin Weize in the next instant. With a light leap, Flash Shadow delivered a flying kick to Qin Weize's back. Qin Weize staggered a step from the kick, while Shadow Flash used the recoil to jump into the air, leaving a shadow in the air.

Qin Weize had already discovered that her Superpower could actually allow her to return to one of the "shadows" she had left behind, but there were about ten shadows left at the scene, making it impossible to determine which shadow she would revert to.

Before Shadow Flash even landed in mid-air, he suddenly returned to the shadow in front of Qin Weize, his body tensed, his right arm pressed back, and a heavy uppercut slammed into Qin Weize's chin. Qin Weize grunted and was sent flying into the air. At this moment, Shadow Flash flashed back to the shadow behind Qin Weize and delivered a kick!

Qin Weize groaned and plummeted towards the ground, but before he hit the ground, Shadow Flash flashed back to his shadow on the ground and struck Qin Weize's face hard with his elbow. Qin Weize crashed headfirst into the ground, and his head exploded with a "buzz": Oh no, he was going to lose consciousness.

But at this moment, his body suddenly began to rewind to the state before he was hit by the Shadow Flash, and then Xiao He pressed down on his shoulder.

"Did you notice? She transforms into a shadow-like pose after the flashback," Xiao He explained.

Qin Weize paused, then seemed to understand something.

Shadow Flash looked at his teammates in surprise, and after finding them all taken down, he became a little angry. "What the hell?! We could only buy them a minute?!"

"Let's go again," Xiao He encouraged Qin Weize, giving him a gentle nudge.

Qin Weize took a deep breath and charged at the Shadow Flash. But the next moment, the Shadow Flash flashed back to a shadow behind Qin Weize's right and delivered a heavy punch to Qin Weize's face.

Qin Weize was hit and spun halfway around, taking several steps back.

"That shadow on your left!" Xiao He pointed out.

Qin Weize observed the shadow's posture, then raised his left hand in advance to defend. Sure enough, the next moment, he Shadow Flash back to the shadow.

Because Shadow Flash transforms into a shadow form after flashing back, the shadows she leaves behind always retain the preparatory pose before an attack. By observing the shadow's movements, one can predict what kind of attack she will unleash next.

Therefore, Qin Weize blocked Shadow Flash's upper kick.

Qin Weize was still kicked and staggered a step, but at this moment Xiao He used Entropy Reduction to restore him to the state before he was kicked. Qin Weize immediately reached out and grabbed Shadow Flash's arm, blasting the impact into her body.

"Cough!" Shadow Flash groaned, coughing up a mouthful of blood and staggering back several steps.

Just as she regained her composure, she saw Qin Weize's hand hover in front of her, panting as he said, "You lost... surrender."

"Tsk..." Shadow Flash was somewhat unwilling, but she was left alone, and there was no hope of winning 1v3, so she could only choose to surrender.

Everyone suddenly realized something: although Yinglong was very strong in combat, he was also the strongest support, because in this battle, it could be said that Yinglong was protecting two people all by himself.

"Disgusting guy." Shel Nash spat out a curse as he watched the game from the locker room.
