"Wang Teng… won?!"
The people in the audience had eyes the size of saucers as they stared at the figure floating above the arena. They were left in awe.
Then, their gazes shifted from Wang Teng's face to the thing he was holding.
A startled exclamation rang out. "It's Valmont!"
The fellow was drenched in blood. The scales on his skin had cracked and he looked miserable. It was evident that he had been pummeled to death.
The thick Primordial Formed arm was dangling weakly, like a limb without any bones.
As for Wang Teng, he remained calm and composed, as if having just gone out for a stroll, not a battle.
Everyone was finally able to confirm that the young hero had defeated the dark apparition.
It wasn't an illusion!
It was true!
The haughty and unbridled apparition was being carried by Wang Teng like a dead dog.
No words could describe how everyone was feeling.
The normal warriors finally relaxed. The fear and panic in their hearts disappeared without a trace; they even cheered joyfully.
"Wang Teng!"
"Wang Teng!"
"Wang Teng!"
…
The martial warriors from the Great Qian Empire and all the spectators outside the Battle Planet shouted the hero's name to vent their suppressed emotions.

Now, they also felt respect and admiration.
A warrior capable of defeating a dark apparition with ease was worthy of their respect and a source of pride.
Everyone feared dark apparitions, but Wang Teng slayed them like dogs.
That was a stark contrast!
No wonder everyone was awestruck!
Fu Xinglan and the other generals returned to the military's battle fortress. They didn't discover any other traces of dark apparitions, which was a relief.
They smiled when they got to see the image on screen.
"This young man is indeed powerful." General Habakkuk laughed.
"He defeated a bewitched warrior, fair and square during the competition. This is enough to boost the morale of our people. Looks like he understood our intentions. Not bad." General Fu Xinglan nodded in satisfaction.
"That's good!" General Tang Wuwei nodded.
General Fu Xinglan said after some thought, "Ask someone to fetch Valmont for questioning, just in case we missed something."
"Definitely," General Habakkuk agreed.
"Oh right, that attack just now used light Force, right?"
"Yes, light Force; and he developed it to a powerful stage too. This youth is a monster." General Fu Xinglan sighed.
General Habakkuk dropped the smile and said with a stern voice, "My confidence in him keeps on growing. He might be able to reach that stage."
Fu Xinglan and Tang Wuwei blinked and nodded.

"I didn't expect him to actually defeat a tainted warrior, and that quickly." The elder from the imperial family had a troubled expression.
"Let me visit the fellows from the military," said the leader and disappeared.
"Mixed blood?" The universe stage elder blinked, staring in deep thought at the spot where his superior was standing a moment before.
…
On the Parkers family's spacecraft—the Furious Flaming Universe Lord and the others were staring at the youth on screen, his expressions blank.
How great would it be if he wasn't our enemy.
The absurd thought appeared in the leader's mind.
Valteru and Sinclamon didn't speak, but their flickering gazes betrayed their wavering emotions.
On planet Yuming—Wu Xingyun, Old Han and the others finally felt at ease. They broke out in cold sweat when they saw the 'bewitched' warrior in the competition.
What kind of luck is this? A warrior contaminated with dark Force appeared in the League of Talents and Wang Teng was paired with him.
Fortunately, the young hero dealt with the menace successfully.
Once their nervousness faded, they were overcome with astonishment. There were dark apparitions throughout the universe, much stronger than the ones they found on Earth.
If the more powerful apparitions visited them, the planet would have been long gone. They wouldn't even have a chance to rise.
"The rest of the universe is filled with all kinds of challenges and dangers. The threat of the dark apparitions affects them too," Wu Xingyun said grimly.
"I heard that Wang Teng visited a defense planet and resisted the waves of dark apparitions," Old Han lamented. "One planet devoted to resisting dark apparitions. How tragic must the situation be?"
"You're right." Commander Hong felt the same way. He added in a serious tone, "The situation in the rest of the universe is more complex than we thought. We need to become stronger, quickly."
"I wonder what Wang Teng had to go through, to actually grow to this stage within such a short time." Han Zhu and the others felt emotional.

On the Battle Hearth Mercenary Team's spacecraft—Lin Chuhan heaved a soft sigh of relief. Her nervous expression relaxed a little.
