Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution-Chapter 1016 - : Unparalleled Duo

As the champion and runner-up of the previous session, they as the seed players of this time did not need to participate in the knockout rounds and were directly teleported to the stands of this match, planning to wait for the result.

“Haven’t heard of either person’s names, must be an uninteresting match, hope it ends quickly,” Pan Xiaoning said as he walked, eager only for the results and not really interested in watching the match.

However, upon being teleported into the stands, Pan Xiaoning was taken aback.

For a match involving not-so-famous contestants, there wouldn’t be too many people in the stands; at most, some relatives and friends would come to watch.

But after they entered this tournament area, they found surprisingly that several hundred thousand people were sitting in the stands. Glancing around, they noticed that although most of them were Lower Divine Beings, there were also quite a few Middle and Upper Divine Beings.

“What’s going on? Are these players famous? Why haven’t I heard of them before?” Pan Xiaoning checked the system again, confirming he had really never heard their names.

Wen Bujun quickly found a place to sit with Pan Xiaoning, to avoid drawing too much attention.

Luckily they were both wearing sunglasses and hats, so no one could recognize them.

“Look at this atmosphere, something seems off. These audiences, each one doesn’t seem like they are watching a match, more like they are watching a life-and-death confrontation. This is the Great Void world, they won’t really die, it can’t be this serious, can it?” Wen Bujun whispered to Pan Xiaoning.

“Could it be these two clans are using the contest for gambling? The atmosphere feels tense, the stakes must be high,” Pan Xiaoning whispered back.

Wen Bujun nodded and felt that Pan Xiaoning’s rationale made sense.

While they were talking, they heard someone nearby whispering, so they quickly shut up and listened attentively and soon caught the gist.

“So that’s the situation? Qing Lunzi and Long Xiuzi actually bet that Yu Lizi won’t make it past the first round? That’s really reckless, don’t they know the system allocation isn’t truly random? Strong contenders usually don’t meet during the knockouts. They must really count on Heaven to bless them to win,” Pan Xiaoning, after understanding the whole story, said to Wen Bujun on the side.

“Let’s wait and see; these people are just boasting about how powerful Yu Lizi is, perhaps he can enter the top hundred. Maybe they are just hyping him up, he might not be so powerful, just a weakling who gets eliminated upon facing a strong opponent,” Wen Bujun commented.

“It shouldn’t be the case. They mentioned that what’s-his-name, wearing the Sky-topping Armor, has strong defenses apparently, looks like he has the Sky-supporting Old Turtle bloodline, an odd kind that carries a Divine Artifact. If it’s really true, owning such a defense artifact, he shouldn’t be eliminated in the knockout rounds, let alone in the first round,” Pan Xiaoning said.

“Let’s just watch and see. We still don’t know if the Divine Artifact is real or fake,” Wen Bujun always had to contradict Pan Xiaoning in everything.

Pan Xiaoning chuckled and said, “You picked that Tian, naturally you hope it’s fake, but it looks like it should be fine, seems like I’m going to win this championship again.”

“The match hasn’t even started yet, you are celebrating too early, I think Tian will definitely win,” Wen Bujun responded.

“Why do you say that?”

“Tian… Tian… isn’t that the meaning of Heaven… it’s Heaven sent to deal with Yu Lizi… Yu Lizi must be a bad guy… must be karmic retribution…”

“To win, you can really spout any nonsense,” Pan Xiaoning commented.

As they were talking, the contestants were already teleported into the arena.

All eyes focused on them; Pan Xiaoning and Wen Bujun were also sizing them up, but unfortunately, they couldn’t see their faces. Both contestants were fully armed, their armors covering their entire bodies.

“Look at that armor on Yu Lizi, the patterns on it are unique to the Sky-supporting Old Turtle’s bloodline. If it really is such an artifact, it looks like I’m certainly going to win, sorry about that,” Pan Xiaoning said after carefully examining Yu Lizi’s armor, and then he cheerfully spoke.

“It’s too early to declare victory,” Wen Bujun said, but upon seeing the armor worn by Tian, his heart suddenly felt half as cold.

The armor looked shabby, like it was made of raw iron.

Although one shouldn’t judge a Divine Artifact by its appearance, such a dull and powerful artifact was indeed rare.

What made Wen Bujun more depressed was that Tian was also carrying a shield on his back.

In the toughest Divine Being contests, there’s a saying “first light, second armor, third helmet; anyone holding a shield is a fool.”

If you meet a contestant who didn’t wear any equipment, you should be careful, these types of contestants are often very powerful.

Those wearing armor are also difficult to deal with; among these types of contestants, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers, the levels vary widely, and it’s easy to trip up.

One should also be cautious encountering those only wearing a helmet, but this helmet restricts only one person; that one person represents this series, very famous, and these three helmets basically refer just to him.

As for those holding a shield, well, they are generally weak; truly powerful contestants in famous toughest Divine Being contests hardly carry those things.

So seeing the shield on Lin Shen’s back, Wen Bujun felt a chill rushing from his head to his feet.
