"Sorry everyone," Xie Haining sighed after being carried off the stage. "I was hoping for a three-game winning streak, but as expected..."

As she spoke, Xie Haining rubbed her forehead and said, "I'm just not the type who's good at long battles... especially fighting an intelligent enemy like the Bomb Man. It's too mentally taxing."

Xiao He knew that they might have only watched the entire match for ten minutes, but Xie Haining might have already been watching for a whole day.

"It's alright, you did a great job." Cui Man patted Xie Haining on the shoulder and laughed, "You defeated Shel Nash, you know? That genuine Level 5 Mutant, that powerful figure who has fought his way from the old generation to the new generation."

"Yeah, Brother Ning, now it's my turn to shine," Xia Yu said with a smile.

"Okay, keep it up." Xie Haining smiled, took a bottle of healing potion, drank a sip, and his injuries were basically healed.

"Oh? Is Xia Yu planning to go second?" Cui Man asked with a smile, then patted her head. "Go ahead! Let them see how amazing our Special Response Department's little foodies are!"

"Sister Man, I'm not young anymore..." Xia Yu said a little embarrassedly, taking small steps towards the elevator.

"It's definitely not small..." Zhang Ming glanced at Xia Yu's C-cup, blushing as he muttered, "And she's so cute."

"You want to mess with my sister? You'd better beat me first." Xiao He punched him on the head in an annoyed tone.

Zhang Ming was knocked so hard he staggered a couple of steps and almost fainted.

"Do you want your sister to be a bachelor for the rest of her life?" Ye Wanqing scolded, pinching his ear.

Xiao He turned to look at Ye Wanqing. At times like these, Ye Wanqing always seemed a little out of place, since she was a non-combatant.

As her fiancé, he naturally couldn't ignore things. He patted her little head and said, "Little Pufferfish, shall we go to the cafeteria and get some food to treat everyone?"

"Okay!" Ye Wanqing replied happily immediately.

The two arrived at the public cafeteria and happened to see the M Country Team eating breakfast and watching the game. Perhaps because the screen was bigger or because it was more crowded and lively, teams from other countries were also there.

"Yo!? Isn't this Yinglong?" At this moment, the Werewolf Victor approached, grinning and gritting his teeth. His expression seemed to be a mixture of resentment, anger, and sarcasm. He looked at him strangely. "You're really taking things easy! Running out to order food in the middle of the semi-finals! You really don't take your enemies seriously!?"

"You're only here to replenish your strength because you value the enemy, you fool," Xiao He replied calmly.

"Who the hell are you calling an idiot?!" Victor roared angrily, but at that moment Sebastian grabbed his ear and pulled him behind him, then stepped forward and extended his hand to Xiao He with a smile, "Congratulations on winning the first match. But don't let your guard down, I'm still waiting to avenge my defeat in the finals."

"I'm just worried you'll lose another match. Let's make this clear: don't get angry if you lose." Xiao He grasped Sebastian's hand.

Sebastian laughed heartily. "Don't joke around. I've been watching your matches lately. It might be a bit inappropriate to say this, but the closer someone is to me, the harder it is for them to beat me. You understand?"

"I know," Xiao He said with a smile, then noticed that Thousand Magnet was staring intently at him for some reason.

"What's wrong with this guy now?" Xiao He asked Thousand Magnet curiously.

"They probably have some obsession with you," Sebastian frowned, then turned to his teammates and scolded, "Hey guys, save your energy for tomorrow..."

Sebastian went to reprimand the team members, while Xiao He and Ye Wanqing ordered food and then carried wonton noodles, steamed buns, and fermented rice with eggs back to the common lounge.

The battle on the field has just begun. Xia Yu is fighting "Puppeteer" Shatina, who is also a LV5 Mutant who appeared before. Her Superpower is to give life to inorganic things through the threads in her hands.

Not only sand, rocks, and metals, but even air and fire can be given life.

At this moment, Shatina had summoned two stone giants, with a wind bird standing on her feet.

Xia Yu injected two syringes into her neck, enhancing herself to level 1.5. Horns began to appear on Xia Yu's body, clearly indicating that she had entered the level 1.5 enhancement of the Peacock Mantis Shrimp. In this enhanced state, she not only possessed the lightning-fast punching speed of the Peacock Mantis Shrimp, but also a hard shell and the ability to molt quickly.

The only drawback is that the enhanced form of the Peacock Mantis Shrimp is not as agile as the jumping spider.

Xia Yu assumed a boxing stance, then took a few quick steps to reach the two stone giants. "Bang!" It sounded like only one sound, but five or six dents instantly appeared on the two stone giants' bodies, and their massive bodies shattered in an instant.

"This girl..." Li Zhengliang was immediately taken aback, "She's ridiculously strong! Was she not even using her full strength before?"

"It's not that I didn't use my full strength, it's that I 'couldn't' use my full strength," Cui Man laughed. "Because it's a competition, nobody can die. But the Puppeteer's defense rating is quite high, so it should be fine."

After Xia Yu instantly knocked down the two stone giants, he stepped over their broken bodies and jogged towards Shatina on the wind bird. Shatina raised her hands again, and the threads on her hands connected to the stone giants.

The two shattered stone giants disintegrated, but instead of collapsing, they scattered into ten smaller stone giants. These smaller stone giants moved much faster than the larger ones, and they pounced on Xia Yu from all directions. Xia Yu destroyed all the small stone giants on his left in one go, but he was entangled by four stone giants that pounced from behind.

Taking advantage of Xia Yu being held back, Shatina took out a lighter, lit it, and then began to dance with her fingers.

Under her control, the small flame took on a human shape and rapidly expanded into a fire giant over three meters tall, enveloping Shatina within it. Then, she raised her hand and hurled a massive fireball at Xia Yu.

Xia Yu threw the two stone golems on his back, then smashed the remaining two stone golems into dust with two punches, and rolled away to avoid the oncoming fireball.

But Shatina used this time to summon two more stone giants, clearly intending to suppress Xia Yu from a distance.

Xiao He was engrossed in watching the game when Cui Man suddenly pinched his cheek. "Darling, you have a mission now. Go to the prison and bring Faust over. If we lose this match, O Continent Team is planning to send him onto the field next..."

"Understood," Xiao He replied, then used the Dimensional Walker to arrive at the prison.

The prison was as quiet as ever, because there were fewer people there again.

Joker the Adner and Ripper Rick have both partnered with the Special Response Department, so the only ones left here are stubborn individuals like Jin Shaokang and Zhang Shan, as well as contestants like Faust.

"Get ready, it's your turn to compete," Xiao He said, beckoning Faust with his index finger.

"Get ready? Okay, okay..." Faust said, standing up and going to the prison window. Using the reflection, he slicked his hair back, then gracefully curtsied to Xiao He. "Well then, I'll begin my performance!? Ta-da--!"

As he spoke, Faust suddenly ripped open his outer garment, revealing his undergarments.

This guy wore his underwear on the outside, had an "S" drawn on his chest, and draped a cut-up bed sheet over his back as a cape; his distinctive features were quite obvious.

"Super-Man, huh?" Xiao He raised an eyebrow, then raised his hand to clap and take Curtain Call.

But at that moment, Faust suddenly rushed towards him at great speed, grabbing Xiao He's hands in the blink of an eye, and Xiao He's slap was never delivered.

"Surprise." Faust's lips curled up slightly, then he bumped his head against Xiao He's forehead.

With a loud "clang," Xiao He felt a throbbing pain in his forehead and was knocked to the ground by the impact, creating a crater with a radius of more than three meters.

Faust, on the other hand, casually crossed his arms and flew into the air, looking down at him with a kingly air.

"This isn't an S; in my world, it represents hope," Faust said with an air of righteous indignation.

"Did you know?" Xiao He stood up and flew into the air, keeping the same height as Faust, and said sharply, "I'm from the Batman faction."

Faust smiled slightly, then charged forward. But Xiao He dodged Faust, grabbed Faust's cloak, and punched Faust in the face with a backhand.

Faust groaned and crashed to the ground, creating a crater more than five meters wide!

This comparison reveals that Xiao He's power was actually greater than Faust's!

In fact, Xiao He could defeat Faust even without using the "Curtain Call" technique. As long as he still wore the code name "Lin Tiannan," no matter what role he played, he couldn't beat Xiao He.

If Faust became Superman, then Xiao He would become "Doomsday".

"Come on, let me experience what it's like to be 'Doomsday'," Xiao He laughed, then rammed his head into Faust on the ground.

After sliding a distance on the ground, Xiao He picked up Faust, ready to start beating him, when he suddenly realized something and turned to look at the damage he had caused.

"Hmm..." Xiao He pondered for a moment, resting his chin on his hand, before suddenly punching Faust in the face.

Faust shot into the air like a rocket, while Xiao He accelerated to catch up with him, slapped Faust across the face, and the two of them flew into the air together.

Faust struggled for a moment, reaching out to grab Xiao He's hand and trying to pry it open, but to no avail.

"Oh, a weak resistance." Xiao He shook his head with a smile, inwardly marveling: Is this what it feels like for Doomsday to ravage Superman? So satisfying... He can be beaten however he wants, and he's incredibly resilient. This is just too awesome!

"Screech!" Faust roared, straining with all his might to remove Xiao He's hand from his face, his eyes flashing red.

But Xiao He glared at Faust first, and a thick laser beam shot from his eyes, blasting towards Faust's face.

The two darted about in the air at an extremely fast speed, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived at an altitude of more than 10,000 meters.

Although Faust's resistance was strong, Xiao He had everything under control.

"I will never stop fighting... never!" Faust declared resolutely, then threw Xiao He away.

Xiao He steadied himself in mid-air, and the next second Faust crashed into his arms.

"Aaaaah!" Faust roared, carrying Xiao He upwards, the two of them leaving the atmosphere and entering outer space.

However, given their current abilities, they could survive even in outer space.

Xiao He grabbed Faust's head and punched him in Faust face.

The sound was like one asteroid colliding with another.

Faust shuddered from the punch, his momentum abruptly vanishing. Then Xiao He grabbed his head and threw him away, before unleashing two powerful laser beams from his eyes that struck Faust.

"Ugh!" Faust screamed, tumbling and flying through space.

Just as Xiao He was about to continue the pursuit, a broken voice suddenly came through his earpiece. "Yinglong, where are you? My system shows... you are currently... kilometers away from us!"

"Sister Man? I've run into a bit of a problem." Xiao He pressed his earpiece and said, "Can you hear me? I should be outside the atmosphere now, right? I need a little time to sort this out, I'll be there as soon as possible..."

Before he could finish speaking, Faust sped up and punched Xiao He in the face.

Xiao He was sent spinning through the air by the blow. He rubbed his face where he had been hit and cried out in pain, "Ouch..."

It actually hurts a little... Xiao He couldn't help but frown: Is it because we're nearing our limits that we've narrowed the gap between us?

"I will not let you harm this world, absolutely!" Faust said righteously, raising his fists and flying up.

Xiao He spread his arms and assumed a fighting stance, then dodged to the side the instant Faust rushed in front of him, simultaneously punching Faust in the face.

This powerful punch caused Faust to veer sharply and fly towards the atmosphere.

Xiao He paused in mid-air to adjust his posture, then accelerated and crashed into Faust. The friction from passing through the atmosphere caused flames to erupt around both of them...

Meanwhile, on the field, Xia Yu is locked in a fierce battle with Shatina.

With a loud "Bang!", the seven stone figures in front of Xia Yu were instantly blasted apart.

"Wow... With that kind of punching speed, anyone who goes up against him will die, right?" Han Tianyu couldn't help but say, feeling embarrassed.

"No, not really. If the enemy's body is tough enough, then she'll be the one who gets hurt," An Xiuru explained. "So I still think she'd be even more formidable with me."

After clearing out the stone golems, Xia Yu was about to approach Shatina when the fire giant threw a fireball, forcing Xia Yu back again.

Xia Yu adjusted her body in mid-air and placed her hands on the ground.

With a flick of Xia Yu hands, Xia Yu instantly appeared in front of Shatina.

Shatina smiled slightly, her fingers dancing, and the two figures passed each other. The next moment, Xia Yu landed on the ground, her body frozen.

"Hmph, become my puppet, little girl, how about we dance the Dance of Death?" Shatina smiled sweetly, her fingers dancing as she manipulated her silken threads. However, Xia Yu was not controlled by her and exclaimed in surprise, "This... why!?"

"Your line isn't connected to me," Xia Yu said casually, then suddenly pulled on her left arm. Shatina cried out in surprise and fell off the wind bird, crashing to the ground.

"Impossible! My threads were transparent before they were attached to the doll!" Shatina said in astonishment, frowning. Xia Yu pointed to his eyes and said, "They're transparent to humans."

Besides its ability to deliver fifty punches per second, the Peacock Mantis Shrimp is unique for its distinctive eyes. This shrimp can see infrared, ultraviolet, and even polarized light, which are invisible to humans.

The threads might appear transparent to an ordinary person, but Xia Yu could see them very clearly.

Xia Yu steadied herself in a horse stance, grabbed the silk thread with her left hand, and pulled hard. Shatina flew towards her.

Then Xia Yu's right hand blurred for a moment, and Shatina seemed to have crashed into an invisible iron bar. A spurt of blood shot from her forehead, and she tumbled halfway in mid-air before falling to the ground, motionless.

The referee immediately went over to check on Shatina's condition and waved his hand to indicate that she was unconscious.

The doctors immediately rushed to check on Shatina, but it appeared to be just a concussion, and the injury was not life-threatening.

"Just like Brother Xiao did, I only flicked his forehead," Xia Yu said with a smile. "I'll win this match, everyone can rest now."

"This child..." Cui Man laughed, arms crossed, "Has gone astray..." She was about to turn around and tease Cui Man Xiao He, but then realized Xiao He hadn't brought the person back yet. Checking Xiao He's location, she frowned immediately. "Yinglong, where are you? It shows you're 300 kilometers away! Where did you go?"

"My situation here... I need some time... as soon as possible..." Xiao He's voice was broken.

Cui Man bit her nails and pondered for a moment, then pressed her earpiece and said, "Check Yinglong's location. This match is over, and the opponent is still waiting for their next match..."

At this moment, there was an uproar in the audience. Cui Man glanced at the screen and found that the live broadcast camera had suddenly shifted to the air.

Meanwhile, a massive fireball was falling from the sky, like a meteorite, toward the arena.

As the drone's camera zoomed in, everyone realized that it was actually two people locked in combat!

The fireball continued to accelerate, finally crashing into the center of the arena with a deafening "BOOM!" amidst screams from the audience. Smoke and dust instantly spread, engulfing Xia Yu's tiny figure still on the field...

As the smoke cleared, in the middle of the arena, Xiao He lifted Faust into the air with one hand, and pressed his other hand against the earpiece, saying, "Sister Man, I've delivered him, it's just..."

As he spoke, Xiao He shook Faust, whose body swayed weakly, and said, "He seems to be in a bad state... Look at O Continent Team, do you still want him to continue playing?"
