What Was He Going to Do?

Everyone practically fell to their knees as they watched him walk away.

The crowd roared, "That was badass!"

Especially the people of Nine Domains Nation.

They watched him with utmost reverence.

That display of memory just now had brought immense honor to Nine Domains Nation.

They had never seen such an awesome contestant.

He possessed such terrifying memory and comprehension.

Yet he had been randomly selected to become an observer.

If he were allowed to do academic research, perhaps even a Nobel Prize in the future would not be beyond his reach.

At that thought, their hearts filled with anticipation.

They speculated about where Ye Jin would go next.

Especially when they saw the smile on his lips as he left, they all felt it couldn't be that simple.

They grew even more eager to see what would happen next.

They wished they could hit the fast-forward button.

The camera followed Ye Jin's retreating figure as he went farther and farther away.

"Ye Jin should be taking a break now, right? It's already past four in the afternoon. Where would he get that much energy? Compared to the other contestants, his performance has been absolutely astonishing."

"He'll probably go back to the hotel. He's been going full throttle all day. He can't possibly keep having that much energy."

"Anyway, I'm so impressed today I'm flat on my face in admiration. From now on, God Ye is my idol."

"God Ye is so badass he's blowing up the heavens! I'm going to start a fan club."

"666, count me in! I want to join too."

"Damn, he's seriously amazing, but what I'm more curious about is where Ye Jin will go next."

"You guys keep watching. I'm going to check out the performances of those idiots next door."

"Holy shit, I'm going to take a look too!"

Quite a few people immediately went to the smaller screens to watch the other observers' performances.

Andrew from Sea Eagle Country had charged straight into the city's military base.

The military base had been meant to lure them in, so it hadn't been fitted with particularly complicated access controls or security mechanisms.

Thus, Andrew had entered the city's military base with ease.

He had taken a military tank straight out of it.

Andrew himself had served in the military.

He wasn't unfamiliar with military tanks, and he had easily driven one out.

Quite a few military enthusiasts' jaws dropped when they saw the tank he drove out.

"Holy shit, that's Sea Eagle Country's M1A2 main battle tank! Awesome! They even dared to bring out a tank like that. I wouldn't bow to a wall, but I'll bow to them."

"The M1A2 isn't the most advanced, but it was still among the main ranks of battle tanks, right?"

"They're putting way too much on the line. Take a few dozen of those to some small region, and you'd be a hegemon running wild without a care."

"Awesome, awesome!"

As for Yige'er from Iron Bear Country, it had to be said that he was very handy.

After chopping down trees as quickly as he could.

He had immediately started building a house on the spot.

Everyone was at a loss for words.

What the hell? Something seemed wrong with the plot.

Did you pick up the wrong script?

Chopping trees and building a house at the start-isn't that Minecraft? There are so many skyscrapers and luxury homes, but instead of living in one, you go chop trees and build a house. Are you crazy?

The viewers all complained.

But they couldn't deny it.

Yige'er's craftsmanship was quite good.

In one afternoon, he had built the rough framework.

The contestants from the other countries had yet to turn things around.

They were still the same as before.

But what left them most speechless was that the blockhead Boudreau from Black Flame Country had barely been out at sea when he ran into a strong wind and capsized.

He had only had a small fishing boat to begin with and hadn't made any real preparations.

The food and drink on the boat had looked like a lot and had seemed heavy, but when the wind and waves struck, the boat was like a light, drifting leaf and was overturned with ease.

All the money and gold bars he had brought were thrown into the sea.

Everyone's hearts ached at the sight, and they wanted to jump up and curse.

The money wasn't theirs, but it still hurt to watch!

They really wanted to jump to their feet and give him a tongue-lashing.

He had dared to go to sea in a small fishing boat.

Did he really think he could get out?

That was pure wishful thinking.

If he hadn't clung tightly to the fishing boat and begun drifting, the production team probably would have had to send a submarine to fish him out.

Even so, his participation in the competition would have been terminated early.

In the end, he drifted to a small, deserted island.

The entire island was only a few square kilometers, and it had nothing.

Compared with the city island from before, it couldn't even measure up to a hair on it.

The viewers were both angry and amused at the sight.

There really was a hole in his head!

He wouldn't stay in a perfectly good city, where there was food, drink, and entertainment. Instead, he insisted on courting death by going to sea.

His brain was truly on the fritz.

They were so angry they laughed.

They turned back to watch Ye Jin.

They discovered that he had arrived at a rock-climbing store.

When everyone saw the store, they began muttering to themselves.

The scene felt so familiar, as though they had seen it somewhere before.

The same plot.

The same script.

Damn it, no way!

A terrifying possibility suddenly occurred to them.

Ye Jin... wasn't going rock climbing, was he?

The more they thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Holy shit!

Holy shit!

Holy shit!

No way!

Was he fucking serious?

If it was true, they really wanted to gouge out their eyeballs and throw them on the ground.

That was way too badass!

Ye Jin walked straight in.

It was a store that specialized in selling rock-climbing equipment.

This time, he was going to challenge an entirely new mode.

Since his car was at the mountaintop, and he needed the conversion of calorie points to help him activate the battleship.

And he also wanted to know.

Whether this... could unlock the shackles of the Galactic New Human.

He didn't know if it was his imagination, but ever since he had unlocked the shackles of the Galactic Human last time, he had felt that his stamina was far better than before. Even after thinking for so long, he hadn't felt tired.

He quickly picked out the tools he needed in the store.

Then he opened an instructional challenge video by a world-class climber.

He began watching it intently.

The billions of people behind their screens.

All felt a little dazed.

What a familiar script.

Are you serious, or are you messing with us?

You're getting ready to go rock climbing.

Yet you've sat down right where you are to watch a video.

Are we the ones fooling around, or are you?

This was no joke.

Everyone suddenly discovered an astounding new development.

"Wait, something seems off about the video Ye Jin is watching!"

"What is it?"

"That video seems to be... a tutorial on free solo climbing!"

"Holy shit, no way! It's true! Damn, is he really going for something this extreme?"

"Wait... the equipment Ye Jin just bought didn't seem to include any safety gear. Holy shit... this is insane!"

"Ye Jin, he-he-he... he's taken out the instruction manual."

"So what if he took out the instruction manual? Huh? Holy shit, holy shit... don't tell me this is his first time rock climbing, and he's doing it without gear!"

"Forget it, I'm getting on my knees again. I've been kneeling all day, and I reckon I'll have to do it again tomorrow."

Countless people were utterly shocked.

Today had truly been an eye-opener.

Free solo climbing!

It was thrilling beyond all limits.
