A legendary was slain with a single sword strike!
Everyone at the scene, along with the hundreds of millions watching the live broadcast, were stunned. The death of a legend globally wasn’t significant, and numerous videos could be found online, but, for most people, this was the first time they had witnessed the complete process with their own eyes.
The most shocking part was that the one who killed the legend was just an advanced mutant.
This was stated by a seasoned legendary fighter on the commentary panel who had told the audience from the beginning that the person being chased was an advanced mutant!
Skipping over two ranks to kill a legend.
This is a true legendary story!
Although it seemed to heavily rely on that electric flying sword, he did it. For a moment, countless people were guessing the level of that sword.
But people were even more curious about what exactly had happened?
Why did that strategic legend want to kill that person? Where did those bionic people come from? Who activated the Superconductive Shield Array at the Tianqin Stadium?
All these incidents were filled with a flavor of conspiracy.
However, from the scene, it seemed highly likely that the chased advanced mutant was the victim, otherwise, "Martial King" Shi Renzhong and "Ice and Fire Queen" Yu Meiling wouldn’t have stepped in to help him.
Bullying the weak, the weak overcoming the strong!
Most of the audience unconsciously empathized with Ji Xinghuo, sided with him, and saw him kill a powerful enemy, and they couldn’t help but cheer involuntarily.
This was everyone’s question.
The audience in the front row of the venue, as well as mutants with powerful vision, all saw Ji Xinghuo’s face clearly, but except for family members, no one recognized him.
On the big screen and the broadcast channels, Ji Xinghuo’s face was obscured.
Ye Dongyun and the three others were initially anxious, but now seeing Ji Xinghuo survive, they couldn’t help but weep for joy. Ye Dongyun and Liangqiu Feiyan embraced, and only then did Zhong Ming realize that he had been clenching his fists too tightly, his nails had embedded into his flesh, causing some pain.
Wang Zizhen’s eyes were unfocused, murmuring, "Brother is too incredible!"
Amidst the cheers, Shi Renzhong got up.
He had been slapped away by a molten rock giant created by the cunning mastermind, almost dismembering his entire body, and he painfully steadied himself with his long spear, looking at Ji Xinghuo and the Purple Lightning Sword with eagerness in his eyes.
Shi Renzhong had just started speaking, but Ji Xinghuo, as if he hadn’t heard, shot the Purple Lightning Sword forward.
The sword light traced a ring-shaped trajectory.
The ground in the middle of the arena was sliced open along a circular line, Ji Xinghuo stepped into it, exerted force under his feet, and the entire alloy floor suddenly sank, revealing a round hole.
Ji Xinghuo’s figure fell into it and disappeared.
The audience was puzzled.
"He’s heading to the Shield Control Room!" a commentator reacted quickly, immediately saying, "That legendary mutant definitely had accomplices who activated the Shield Array and are still secretly manipulating the bionic people."
People suddenly realized.
They nervously waited while discussing with the people next to them.
Online, the incident at the Tianqin National Stadium had spread across the globe, trending on social media platforms in almost every country.
In just a few minutes, the viewership of this match had increased by several billions!
Originally, due to public safety concerns, the live broadcast should have been terminated immediately, but seeing the surge in viewer numbers, the broadcasters intentionally delayed, continuing even now.
Underneath the stadium.
Ji Xinghuo’s magnetic field induction had already locked onto the Shield Control Room.
Any building installed with a Shield Array had extremely robust underground spaces, capable of defending against nuclear blasts, usable as air-raid shelters during war.
The underground of Tianqin Stadium was among the best, normally heavily guarded, with the ground and walls made of a combination of alloy and concrete, the Protect Array divided into multiple functionally different zones.
Ji Xinghuo ran through a tunnel, his magnetic field induction already mapped out the nearest route.
The Purple Lightning Sword cleared the way ahead.
Amidst sweeping sword lights, a metal door was violently cut open, Ji Xinghuo passed through unobstructed, running dozens of meters through the tunnel before the Purple Lightning Sword sliced through a wall hole on the side, he jumped through, and rounding a corner, he arrived outside the door of the Shield Control Room.
A few bionic people with guns guarded the entrance of the control room.
The Purple Lightning Sword transformed into a flash of electricity, spun around the hallway, and turned the bionic people into a pile of scrap metal.
Ji Xinghuo furrowed his brows.
Here, although he couldn’t see inside the control room, his magnetic field induction showed only one person inside with a not-so-strong field strength.
The Shield Control Room was the most heavily protected place in the underground engineering, completely cast in alloy, the metal door itself was more than a meter and a half thick.
Ji Xinghuo didn’t have the password, of course, he couldn’t open the door.
He gripped the Purple Lightning Sword, exerted force on his hand, the high-frequency blade met almost no resistance as it plunged into the door, slicing through the metal like tofu, cutting out a large chunk, then he quickly swung several slashes, successfully creating a hole in the door.
The Purple Lightning Sword shot through, and a scream came from inside.
However, Ji Xinghuo’s expression didn’t look good.
He entered the control room through the hole, seeing a man collapsed in a chair, left hand severed at the wrist by the Purple Lightning Sword, his expression extremely pained.
On the wall of the control room were several screens; in front of the man was the control panel.
"Why did you attack me?" the man angrily questioned.
Ji Xinghuo observed the man’s eyes; this person was an advanced mutant, quite powerful but posed no threat to him, and asked calmly, "Don’t you know what you’ve done?"
