Someone recognized Lu Yu and instantly froze in place.
To ordinary people, Lu Yu has already become a legend. A powerful warrior who slew an Overlord, he achieved the miracle of sitting side by side with the Overlords through the strength of a Star Lord!
And it’s been a whole year!
No one has seen Lu Yu in the past year, nor has anyone heard of him making any sensational moves.
However, no one could forget Lu Yu in the past year.
What “the first among those below the Supreme” — they’ve already killed a Supreme now.
Hydra, is that an ordinary Supreme?
The terrifying subordinate sent to Japan by Lu Yu gave them too many surprises.
After paying the lives of tens of thousands of their compatriots for insulting Lu Yu, the Japanese finally understood what the word “well-behaved” truly meant.
Since the birth of this nation, perhaps it has never been so well-behaved.
They stayed obedient, dared not move, dared not act arrogantly, and even dared not cast a glance at the Phantom Demon hovering above the sea surface.
That was a kind of exhilaration never before experienced by the Chinese people.
I finally see such an honest Japan!
But the fact that the Japanese are honest doesn’t mean the Emperor can just sit back and relax!
After the death of the Nine-headed Hydra, the small island nation once again produced two new Supreme Beings, bringing the total number of Supremes to four, which overwhelmed the Huaxia people.
Some people complained, questioning why a small island country could have so many experts, while the number of supreme experts in Huaxia was merely three.
Even someone had seen four Sovereigns together exerting pressure on the misty figure in that sea area.
The supreme dignity and pride of the至尊 (Supreme Being) would not allow an enemy to wander so brazenly within their domain.
That battle lasted for nearly three days and three nights; it could truly be described as earth-shattering and sea-overturning.
In the end, the demonic forces were defeated, but they took away an arm of a Supreme Being with them.
It’s truly unbelievable that even the combined efforts of the four Supreme Beings couldn’t stop a single Star Lord!
Demon King did it! Even in retreat, he remains so powerful!
Two days later, two cities in Japan were destroyed. Huan Ma, drenched in blood, fought against the two arriving Zunzhi, tearing one of them in half before finally retreating.
After that, the supreme beings of Japan became respectful and cautious. Even when they saw the Phantom Demon soaring above the sea surface from a distance, they never dared to provoke it.
Even so, throughout this year, there hasn’t been a shortage of tales about Xuanmo’s exploits. At one point, Xuanmo even completely wiped out a gang of pirates from an unknown nation who had intended to target him.
Who knows how many treasures he has on him already.
Some people even fought over those things, but they were all killed.
There was even a Half-Zhizun among them!
Lu Yu’s subordinate has already suppressed Japan to the point where they dare not move. How powerful could Lu Yu be?
Lu Yu’s appearance has already become familiar to many people.
Now, being here and seeing Lu Yu in person, he was immediately recognized by others.
The man’s startled cry and scream immediately brought an unusual silence to the surroundings, and many people turned their eyes toward this direction.
A boy of about twelve or thirteen stared at Lu Yu, his eyes gleaming with excitement. “Wow, this is Lu Yu, the killer?” he exclaimed.
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings immediately fell into a vacuum of silence.
Many people felt cold all over, as if a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood were about to emerge!
Several middle-aged men rushed forward, pushed the young boy to the ground, covered his mouth, and awkwardly smiled toward Lu Yu, saying, “Please don’t take offense, Mr. Lu. This kid has never seen the world before.”
The pressed-down teenager let out strange cries of “wuwu,” his body writhing like a long worm. He couldn’t understand why these adults wouldn’t let him speak—he was telling the truth!
“Whatever.” Lu Yu smiled slightly, without saying much more.
A little girl, not yet ten years old, stood at Lu Yu’s feet and tugged hard at his pant leg, asking, “Mister, I heard you’ve killed Emperors. Was it hard?”
“Uncle?”
Everyone around fainted, what a genius! Calling Lu Yu “Uncle”!
It would not be an exaggeration to call Lu Yu the Supreme One.
Over the past year, all of Lu Yu’s achievements have been widely celebrated, and stories about him have spread far and wide, with even children knowing about many of them.
Therefore, it’s quite reasonable for the young girl to raise such a question.
Even now, the至尊 remains a mysterious and powerful being!
“Do I look that old?” Lu Yu asked with a bitter smile, pointing to his nose. “Who told you to call me ‘Uncle’ anyway?”
The little girl, seeing that Lu Yu didn’t seem scary, grew bolder and said, “My dad says to call anyone older than him ‘Uncle.’ My dad is thirty this year, and he said that seventeen years ago, you were already in your twenties. That means you must be forty now. Huh, Uncle, why don’t you look old?”
Someone in the crowd trembled and stammered, “W-when did this child get over there? The ability to teleport was given to her, but not for use like this…”
The man hurried out, pulled the little girl beside him, and apologized, saying, “Mr. Lu, I’m truly sorry. The child doesn’t know any better, please don’t hold it against her.”
This sounded so stiff and awkward, the person was so nervous they were practically dead!
Standing before me is indeed a powerful warrior who has even killed the supreme beings. Just one of his subordinates was enough to suppress an entire country like Japan, leaving them too terrified to even move.
“Nothing much.”
Lu Yu shook his head, showing no sign of blame.
Just think about it, if it weren’t for this apocalyptic calamity, perhaps I really would have grown old and died in Fanggang.
Forty years old, really forty!
At this moment, the young girl spoke up again: “Uncle, are you also here for the inheritor?”
“No, I’m here for an older sister,” Lu Yu shook his head and chuckled, patting the young girl’s head. “It’s been over a year since I last saw her. I just want to check how she’s doing now!”
“Fire Dance Sister?” The little girl’s eyes sparkled instantly as she said, “Uncle, you’re so devoted! When I grow up, I wish I could have a boyfriend like you too.”
“Uh!”
Lu Yu was slightly taken aback, and even the adult who had been holding the little girl’s hand was left stunned.
This kid knows way too much!
“Mr. Lu, aren’t you going to give it a try?” A young man in his twenties, looking at Lu Yu with admiration from a distance, said, “No one has even passed a single one of those three trials yet. You definitely can make it through.”
In their twenties, this generation grew up almost hearing about Lu Yu’s exploits and regarded him as their idol.
At this moment, seeing Lu Yu arrive, he became excited.
Another young woman with sparkling eyes said, “Mr. Lu, that Supreme One has been here for a whole year, and no one has managed to pass the first trial. If this continues, people will say that there’s no one in Huaxia capable enough. You must go and give it a try, Mr. Lu; you’re sure to succeed.”
“Never mind, I’m not interested. Besides, if he’s the heir, then he’s the chosen one,” Lu Yu shook his head and said, “I was just here to take a look.”
Someone had already designated the arena position for Lu Yu at this time.
When Lu Yu was walking towards the arena, someone from the Celestial Deity Organization heard the news, and several senior representatives in Shanghai personally came to greet him.
Lu Yu now possesses strength rivaling that of the至尊, serving as a pride of the Chinese people and standing as the strongest figure in Huaxia, a person whom all major organizations dare not neglect.
Not only the Celestial organization, but even the military has sent personnel.
Although the city was destroyed, the military’s influence remains strong across the country. This time, when Xie Ming set up the challenge in Shanghai, it was with the assistance, and even the approval, of the military.
They are all powerful individuals with formidable strength.
Both the Celestial Deity Organization and the military each have one individual who has broken through to the Star Lord stage, possessing at least two hundred trillion attributes.
But before Lu Yu, it seemed as if he were facing a raging flame of the Brahma heaven, and his whole body was sweating profusely.
If it were not for Lu Yu’s anger, it could instantly reduce them to ashes.
Approaching the arena, the sighs from the crowd grew louder, and waves of fighting spirit could already be felt.
The arena consists of a massive stone platform approximately five hundred meters in diameter.
On the fighting stage, a person spat blood and flew backward.
Many people sighed in regret: “Even Yang, with a combat power of three hundred trillion, failed. He couldn’t last more than ten seconds!”
“Is this arena really that difficult to get through?”
“I heard Bai Yang has an ability that can double his strength in a short period of time. That’s the power of a Half-Zhizun, yet he still failed.”
“Your information is outdated. Don’t you know that Bai Yang is actually one of the high-ranking members of the Celestial organization? He’s here this time to test his own strength.”
“Oh, the high-ranking officials of the Sky God Organization?” Many people exclaimed in disbelief, finding it hard to accept!
He looks way too young, at most thirty years old, yet he’s a high-ranking member of that Celestial organization that’s been around for over a decade. That means he must be incredibly wealthy, rivaling entire nations.
In recent years, the Celestial Deity Organization has not only been collecting fees for entering the Celestial Deity System, but they have also mastered several hidden secrets of the system. There have already been hints revealing this information.
Therefore, no one knows exactly how many treasures the Heaven God Organization possesses or how many experts they have cultivated.
If even Yang Yang alone already has three hundred trillion combat power, what about the other high-level experts?
People were discussing when, at this moment, a man in his early twenties emerged from the crowd around the arena and said, “I’ll do it!”
This man exuded an air of pride, with a stern and cold demeanor.
When the person walked out, astonished cries immediately spread from all around.
“This is Fanship Mountain, it’s Fanship Mountain!”
“Half-Sovereign human!”
“I heard he’s a disciple chosen by the Dark Sovereign and has been cultivating under the Sovereign’s guidance all along. I never expected that he would come here too.”
“Is this a trial arranged by the Ruler of the Netherworld for him?”
People watched Fan Shan step onto the arena.
As soon as someone stepped onto the stone platform, a beam of light immediately descended from above the platform, creating a barrier that separated the arena from the outside world.
Immediately afterwards, a faint shadow appeared in the center of the stone platform.
The shadow stood nearly ten meters tall, with two long horns spiraling upward from its head like nine twists reaching toward the sky. Behind it, a pair of demonic wings stretched open, spanning over a hundred meters. Even though it was merely a shadow, its pair of eerie blue eyes and the flickering blue light across its body were clearly visible.
The shadow did not move, but Fanshan took a step toward the figure.
Lu Yu could tell that Fan Shan had taken this step with great difficulty.
A high-ranking member of the Celestial Deity Organization standing beside Lu Yu explained, “This level tests compatibility. If the person stepping onto the stage and the shadow are mutually attracted, they can easily walk over. However, if there is no mutual attraction between them, they will repel each other. To pass this level, one must rely on their own strength to approach the shadow. Once close enough to touch the shadow, the trial is passed.”
Lu Yu asked, “So far, has anyone approached?”
The speaker smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, “It’s all rejection; everyone wants to pass this trial by sheer strength. But no one knows what level this shadow possesses. Let alone getting close, it’s already difficult to advance a dozen steps or hold on for dozens of seconds within its range. With every step forward, the pressure increases further. Even standing still, the pressure keeps rising.”
