The battle exchange between Gaia and Zeus had ended. The outcome was as the audience had expected. Zeus had obtained seven matches? 12?? Furthermore, it was a crushing victory in seven matches.
However, no one expected that the seven matches would end so quickly. Other than Mu Yuesheng's match, the other six matches ended in less than ten seconds. Although the elderly God of Swords took seven seconds to announce the outcome of the final match, the battle had actually ended in less than three seconds.
It could be said that this year's battle exchange was the most crushing in all of history.
While the audience cheered for Heartless' final strike, they could not help but feel a little miserable. After all, they were either Gaia rookies or residents of Steel City. They were all related to Gaia in some way or another.
However, the cold truth was placed in front of them. Gaia had truly declined.
And at this moment, Heartless said that he had something important to announce. The audience could not help but prick up their ears. Some of the smarter members of the audience had their heartbeats accelerate slightly as many people thought of a certain possibility.
And this possibility had immediately turned into a cold reality at the next moment.
Heartless announced loudly to the crowd, "Gaia's rookie exchange team has repeatedly disappointed us. And this time, it has been a great disappointment. As such, Zeus has decided to cancel the tradition of the battle exchange with Gaia from this year onwards!"
At this moment, the audience could hear the sound of people sucking in air.
It had come. It had finally come.
People had long guessed that Zeus would shed all pretense of cordiality sooner or later, and the opportunity was definitely the battle exchange. However, few people expected that it would happen on this day!
The audience was caught off guard and caught off guard. However, they could not make a sound of protest because such an outcome was only right and proper.
It was already a miracle that it could last for ten years in a meaningless, one-sided battle.
…
In the VIP stands, the gray-robed elder and the four Division Ministers had an uproar when they heard Heartless' words.
The gray-robed elder looked at the middle-aged man and woman from Zeus with an ugly expression. He said in a deep voice, "Was that child acting on his own, or was it incited by the upper echelons of Zeus?"
The middle-aged man turned to look at the gray-robed elder in a deadpan manner and said, "That child's words represent the will of Zeus."
The grey-robed old man's eyebrows twitched. His eyes were filled with anger as he said, "So you've already planned from the very beginning to cut off the tradition of communication between the two sides."
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "No, it's because your rookies have disappointed us too much. That's why we believe that such a crushing battle exchange with no suspense is not worth our precious time. It's your weakness that has cut off our tradition of exchanges."
"You!"
The grey-robed elder's eyes widened, but he didn't know how to retort. Although the middle-aged man's words were very harsh, they were very reasonable.
The purpose of the exchange battle was to exchange pointers and learn from one another. However, the difference in strength between both sides was too great, so there was no point in exchanging pointers at all. Such an exchange battle was a complete waste of time.
However, the grey-robed elder did not believe that this was an impromptu decision. All of this must have been premeditated.
When Zeus forcefully brought forward this exchange battle, he must have already decided to use this exchange battle to sever the final illusion of peace between the two sides. This rapid suppression that was different from previous years must have been planned in advance!
If that was the case, Heartless' declaration of "a hundred Psionic Condensing Pills" must have been planned a long time ago. And his so-called "personal reasons" were just an excuse to conceal the truth!
The revelation of Heartless' personal reasons at the end was also deliberate. It was to make the scheme appear flawless.
The gray-robed elder quickly figured out the truth of the matter. His pupils suddenly constricted as he looked at the middle-aged man. He said in horror, "That Ye Youtian is one of you!"
Yes, the crux of everything was the sudden appearance of Ye Youtian. He had rationalized Heartless' so-called "personal reasons", making the rapid suppression unexpected but reasonable. As such, he had perfectly severed the tradition of the battle exchange!
Ye Youtian, no, that person might very well be a fake Ye Youtian. He was just a chess piece that Zeus had buried in Gaia. It was only to detonate at the right moment!
The middle-aged man revealed a strange smile and said, "If you think so, then so be it. If you think not, then so be it."
The gray-robed elder gave a wry smile. "So it's just a chess piece that can be abandoned at any time. This setup was truly brilliant. I believe it was the handiwork of that lord?"
"No comment."
The middle-aged man turned his head in a deadpan manner and did not speak another word.
With this, there was no room for discussion. As long as the results of the battle exchange were used, the public opinion would lean towards Zeus. No one believed that such a tradition should continue.
However, all of this was only the beginning. Since Zeus had severed the tradition, it meant that they were about to begin encroaching on Gaia. Although it was unknown what their next step would be, it would definitely happen very soon. Furthermore, it was closely related to this matter.
The gray-robed elder's expression turned extremely heavy. The outcome was already set in stone. He had no way of reversing the outcome of the battle exchange tradition being canceled. What he needed to consider now was how to prevent Zeus' encroachment on Gaia.
…
…
In the battle exchange battlefield, One-Pun looked at the elderly God of Swords and said with a sigh, "Is this the reason why you came personally?"
The elderly God of Swords gave an embarrassed smile and said, "I do not know the plans of those old fogies, Zeus, but they said that there might be danger during the mass selection, so they invited me. This matter concerns the safety of my two disciples, so I naturally could not sit idly by. I did not know that those old fogies were afraid that you would take the risk if we fell out, so they asked me to come. "
One-Pun fell silent for a moment when he heard this before saying, "An explanation is a concealment."
The elderly God of Swords laughed and continued, "A concealment is a fabricated story. Haha, you can use the greatest malice to speculate on my integrity. Anyway, I have a clear conscience!"
One-Pun sighed and did not say another word. The outcome was already set in stone, so it was useless to say anything else.
The audience had already begun discussing. Although such a matter was reasonable, it was too face smacking. To cancel the battle exchange tradition due to a crushing defeat, Gaia would definitely lose all face.
In the arena, an undetectable smile suffused across Heartless' lips. He suddenly shouted at the noisy audience, "Do not blame us for being heartless. Think carefully about why such an outcome was created. It's not that Zeus does not wish to continue the friendly exchange tradition with Gaia, but that your rookies are just too weak! Think back to the seven battles today. What did you see? Crushing, crushing, complete crushing! Do you understand? Everything can only be blamed on your rookie representatives for not living up to expectations! "
When Heartless' words landed in the audience's ears, it immediately infuriated them. However, a number of people were infuriated because of Heartless' ruthlessness, while a number of people found an outlet to vent their anger. They vented their anger on the Gaia rookie delegation.
Gradually, such voices began to appear in the audience stands.
"Sigh, the rookie delegation can't be blamed for not living up to expectations."
"That's right. Other than those two chicks, the rest are trash!"
"I know that blond youth. His name is Kevin. He says he's a genius every day, but look at the result? He's just a fucking piece of trash. "
"Don't brag about Mu Yuesheng in the future. She would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix, so she came to Gaia. She's very powerful in Gaia, but when compared to people from other organizations, she's just so-so. In front of a super rookie, she's nothing."
"Finally, that Ye Youtian is also a joke. I thought he would be some impressive figure as the finale, but who knew. Heh heh."
"Pfft, Bro, let me tell you. This Ye Youtian is from our Annihilation division. In fact, he's usually just a big blockhead. He's only at the third level of the Psionic Mortal Realm. He's not even ranked highly in the Annihilation division."
"Ah? Then why did the upper echelons let this fellow appear as the finale? "
"They're just smashing the can. Gaia will be done for."
"F * * k, it makes me want to transfer organizations."
"…"
Such ear-piercing discussions began to resound in the audience stands. Naturally, there would be people who would retort, and at this moment, it would turn into a nasty quarrel. The scene immediately turned chaotic.
The six rookie representatives, who had secretly come from the lounge to the corner of the audience stands, gradually had ugly expressions when they heard the accusations and quarrels around them.
The three rookies who were there to fill the numbers lowered their heads.
Kevin's face was livid as he clenched his fists.
Mozzie's eyes were glistening with tears.
Mu Yuesheng bit her lower lip as her brown eyes were filled with stubbornness.
Be it slander or mockery, the facts were indisputable. They had been crushed, completely crushed!
Against the accusations, they could only endure and suffer silently.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, an earth-shattering explosion resounded, and the entire auditorium swayed violently! (To be continued.)
