Just as everyone was beginning to accept the reality of defeat, the man sitting in the corner, wearing a hood, suddenly and slowly lifted his hood.

"I'll handle Charles." Tian Hao crossed his arms and pressed them against the tip of his nose, speaking in a deep voice.

What?! You?!

In an instant, shocked gazes were cast upon them.

Although they had "heard" that Tian Hao seemed very strong, they couldn't possibly be stronger than Suyo, could they?

Now that even the Suyo has failed, what can Tian Hao do?

Moreover, the outcome is already decided, and even if they wanted to try harder, they had no chance left.

"Are you saying that we've already lost?"

Tian Hao's calm gaze swept over everyone, and then he slowly pulled out a prop card from his pocket and inserted it into the control panel.

At this moment, Tian Hao finally stopped hiding.

He silenced his own Echo—

[The Invisible Man].

Suddenly, the name "Tian Hao" slowly appeared on the blank page of North Island No. 1.

That's right, the number one in North Island is Tian Hao!

Of course, it's not that Tian Hao is particularly strong; on the contrary, he is very weak, extremely weak.

Aside from making himself invisible, his Echo has almost no combat abilities.

As for your question about why Tian Hao is number one in North Island?

It's simple. Tian Hao was afraid that if he chose East Island along with everyone in Class One, it would expose his weakness.

After all, resisting erosion in the Sea of Consciousness and swimming to the other side tests one's true strength.

His disguise was exposed!

Therefore, he chose to launch a solo blitzkrieg on the North Island!

Of course, what happened next can only be described as pure luck.

Among the contestants from North Island, Tian Hao consistently ranked very low.

He estimated the time and thought he was definitely out of the running for advancement.

However, just as they were about to swim to the island, they discovered that a fierce battle was taking place at the landing point!

Kalentia's five men guarded the landing point, preventing any contestant from disembarking.

Tian Hao paused for a moment, then immediately activated his [Invisible Man] Echo, sneaking onto the island right under the noses of Kalentia and the others.

The Echo of "zero lethality" resulted in "zero presence"!

Thus, Tian Hao, who was completely invisible, was the first to step into the teleportation array of North Island and advance to the second level with the help of the five members of the Sibel.

Moreover, for some reason, his "Invisible Man" ability also works on the leaderboard!

After using the "[Invisible Man]" mod, his name on the list also changed to "Transparent".

The best prop card in North Island is—

[Rematch].

It can restart matches that have already been decided, and the cardholder can choose the mode!

At this moment, only Charles remained on the opposing side, while our side, apart from the already defeated Suyo, still had four people at their peak ready to fight!

Therefore, there's nothing to hesitate about; Tian Hao has chosen the following model:

[Team Competition]!

Four against one!

Let's have a satisfying and righteous brawl!

"Now, the battle continues!"

Tian Hao's voice rang out firmly in the lounge.

The failure of the Suyo was not without meaning!

The ' Overload Mode ' provided by the Charles Concept Armament must have a time limit!

It seems that Charles is nearing his limit at this moment.

After all, how could the hope of defeating our City of Kindling not come at a price!

Therefore, with four against one, the advantage is ours!

Tian Hao knew, of course, that doing nothing and losing would have been the least risky option for maintaining his "strongman persona."

After all, it was Suyo who lost in the "one game decides the outcome," so Suyo should bear the blame alone.

But he was unwilling to accept it!

If City of Kindling has a chance to win, why not give it a shot?

Even if he were to die in front of the entire city...

Yes, Tian Hao is prepared to die for the company.

Because the only "tactic" he could think of to "limit" Charles was to approach him stealthily and then pull down his pants!

That's right, although it's in spirit form, the pants still exist!

The Sea of Consciousness is such a magical place!

With Tian Hao using [Rematch], the situation on the field has reversed once again!

Panyan and the others watched as Tian Hao inserted the prop card into the center console, their faces showing surprise and delight.

They never expected Tian Hao to be so well-hidden!

Cao E was the first to silently apologize to Tian Hao.

Actually, she had always thought Tian Hao was pretentious.

I even once thought that Tian Hao was the kind of Jiahao only talked big.

Unexpectedly, she was blind to his greatness!

The elite class team is back in the competition!

Four against one

Moreover, among these four, there is also Tian Hao, the number one player in North Island who has been hiding his strength all along!

Squad leader Panyan was immediately filled with confidence.

It's important to understand that he possesses an Echo with limitless growth potential—

[Mountain's Shared Burden!]

He can link his lineage with his teammates:

He'll take the damage his teammates suffer!

He will bear the cost of his teammates' consumed Heart Essence!

The stronger his teammates, the stronger he becomes!

As long as teammates keep getting stronger, or you keep getting stronger teammates—

His Echo will have an ever-increasing effect!

Isn't this a form of limitless growth?

"We can't let Suyo's sacrifice go to waste! Let's win this game for him!" Panyan was the first to step out of the lounge.

"That's right!" Cao E echoed.

Although their strength was no match for the elites of Kalentia, four against one!

Moreover, that "one" was already used up by Suyo, and was not at its peak.

If you can't even win this, what's the point of participating in such a big competition?

You might as well go home and raise pigs!

Cao E stepped out of the lounge, head held high, full of confidence.

However, the girl immediately shrank back the next moment.

She thought she should just go home and raise pigs...

The scene on the ring was different from what she had imagined!

It's not just one Charles, but the entire "Four Heavenly Kings" of Kalentia gathered together!

Charles, Dorothy, Dorian, and Rina.

So, how come those three guys rejoined the team?!

The four people on the stage, simply standing motionless on the ring, exuded a terrifying sense of oppression!

So, Panyan, who was right behind him, also retreated with an embarrassed expression.

He thought he could win because it was a fair "four against one" situation.

So now you're saying it's four against four...

How can you possibly win then?!

Even with Tian Hao, the best player in North Island, we still can't win!

It's impossible to win!

With a do-or-die mentality and a desire to fight for a chance at the finals for City of Kindling, Tian Hao's vision went black as he watched the scene unfold before him.

He regretted it.

I should have known better than to use the item card!

It would have been better to just lose like we did before!

However, what's done is done, and regret is useless.

Seeing everyone fall into despair once again, Tian Hao decided to pull off one last big stunt before he was completely "dead"!

"Listen, I know we are at a significant disadvantage right now."

But if anyone thinks they can't win, then they shouldn't go on the field!

Tian Hao walked out of the lounge and was the first to step onto the ring, his coat falling to the ground.

As his resounding words fell, his strongest determination echoed across the arena!

Seeing Tian Hao go up, Panyan and the others exchanged glances and finally made up their minds.

Since Tian Hao is going, they will follow!

This scene instantly ignited the passion of the audience outside the stadium!

Without a moment's mourning for Suyo's defeat, now taking the stage is North Island's number one, Super Tian Hao!

At this very moment, in the locker room of another arena.

Huomu looked at Qiji in shock. He hadn't expected that everything that had happened on the battlefield of Suyo was exactly as Qiji had predicted!

Just how far can Qiji's eyes see?!

However, speaking of eyes, Huomu noticed that Bai Lili kept staring at Qiji's eyes.

During the period leading up to the competition, Huomu had been training with the devilish Yuejian, and therefore was unaware that Bai Lili's engagement had been broken off.

He hesitated for a moment, then finally couldn't resist and whispered a reminder:

"Bai Lili... cough cough, the whole city is watching this live, and the Thousand Faces Family family is watching outside too."

The subtext of Huomu is—
