At the moment their eyes met, Gu Minghui and Divine General Cyan Dragon utilized their divine thoughts to communicate with each other mind-to-mind.

It was clear that their subsequent conversation wasn't suitable for others to hear.

"Cyan Dragon, you must have already noticed Ye Qingzhou's uniqueness, right?"

"Hmm, not within calculations."

"Indeed, not within calculations."

Gu Minghui was quite emotional. He was known as a master of the Celestial Secret Divine Calculation, so he naturally understood the significance of the phrase "not within calculations."

"Everything in the world has a predetermined destiny. Thus, all living beings from the moment of birth are influenced by primordial qi, and are therefore within calculations. Yet, Ye Qingzhou is precisely an exception. You should understand the significance of this."

Cyan Dragon's gaze slightly narrowed, "There is only one possibility; he is not a being of our world, so his destiny should have ended early, yet he can defy fate and avoid death to prolong life."

Gu Minghui used the reflective lenses of his glasses to conceal his inner thoughts at the moment: "Do you think he will become the key to breaking the 'predetermined destiny'?"

And Cyan Dragon's answer was unwavering as always: "At the very least, I hope he is."

Both were top contenders among the human beings of Blue Star, so they understood more clearly how bleak and hopeless the fate of humanity's future would be.

If there weren't sufficient variables to break the predetermined fate brought by primordial qi, then human civilization and dignity would soon be severed by powerful Outer Gods.

As a race and life species, humans might not perish, but being raised and enslaved like pigs and dogs, what meaning is there in such survival?

Human history is a dazzling display of heroes and a lineage of sages; it is a history of resistance and an anthem of courage.

So, at any time, there will always be those unwilling to surrender to destiny, choosing to fight and choose to resist, even if it means fighting heaven and earth, it is worth taking no heed.

The consciousness exchange ended, Gu Minghui did not continue speaking, but the way he looked at Ye Qingzhou carried a vague curiosity and anticipation, as if quietly awaiting the arrival of change.

......

After an afternoon of battles, of the fourteen city representative teams, half achieved victory.

Among these, the most captivating were three teams.

Namely, the Linjiang Team led by Ye Qingzhou, the Star City Team represented by Qin Haoyu, and the most unexpected, which was led by Niu Taijie's Loudi Team.

Xu Lan held the records of these two teams, gathered everyone together, and informed them of the latest match news: "Qin Haoyu and Niu Taijie both defeated their opponents in the afternoon matches by one person challenging five."

"One against five?"

Miao Yi was extremely surprised, as were the other teammates.

Even the overly dramatic Leon found it a bit nerve-wracking to hear this: "In our Linjiang Team, aside from Master Ye, there's probably no one else who can face five opponents alone."

The competitors here were the martial dao geniuses selected from fourteen cities, tens of thousands chosen one, so weaklings simply didn't exist.

Even if Leon was extremely confident in his current strength, defeating one, he had confidence.

Defeating two, a bit difficult, but not impossible.

Defeating three, the difficulty was high, although if he fought hard, it wasn't without opportunity.

Facing four?

You're asking me to die!

As for one versus five...

Might as well wash up and get some sleep; you can dream anything.

Upon observing the name 'Niu Taijie' listed as captain of the Loudi Team, Lu Yifan expressed his perplexity.

He couldn't help but ask: "I recall during the Lingyun Grotto Heaven trial, Niu Taijie was a student of Yongxing First High School, right? Logically, he should be representing Forest City, correct? How did he end up on the Loudi Team, and how did he directly become captain?"

Xu Lan coughed lightly, revealing an insider news: "Niu Taijie had a conflict with Yongxing First High School's captain Chen Chen, whose uncle is the principal of Yongxing First High School..."

"Wow, grinding down talented individuals, framing loyal ones?"

Linjiang Team's members then began gossiping while mentally outlining the sequence of events. They also understood why Niu Taijie was poached by Loudi First High School.

"Self-harming, how foolish."

Ye Qingzhou was long used to such scenarios.

After all, if you don't do it, there are others who will. What if you are a martial dao genius?

In some people's eyes, if a genius doesn't obediently be a dog, they will indeed be kicked away.

Xu Lan spoke with a solemn expression: "After going to Loudi First High School, Niu Taijie's strength increased rapidly. In the matches, he did not use any martial techniques; merely relying on his strong physique to win the ring battle."

She then replayed the purchased match footage with a hefty price tag.

In the video, Niu Taijie's skin displayed a dark gold sheen, charging brutishly across the ring, without using any martial techniques or weapons, relying solely on his bare fists to forcefully knock each opponent out of the ring, showcasing formidable and unmatched combat power.

"Impervious to blades and water-fire? This looks somewhat like the Eighteen-Foot Golden Body of the Brahma Pure Sect..."

Leon supported his chin, his expression uncharacteristically serious.

Without a doubt, an opponent like Niu Taijie, who specializes in defense, is the last sort he wants to encounter.

Zhu Jinfeng, however, shook her head: "I have seen the Eighteen-Foot Golden Body cultivation technique of the Brahma Pure Sect before; its gold radiance manifests a sacred and harmonious aura. Whereas Niu Taijie's gold glows darkly with red undertones, exuding ominous meaning everywhere, violent and fierce, obviously quite different."

At this moment, everyone's expression was grave. After all, the cultivation technique displayed by Niu Taijie was quite unique and its effects were extremely powerful, with significant deterrence.
