The match can be lost, but Xiao Bagaga must die.
This was the notion of all Citizens of Daxia.
If they were to lose to other forces, perhaps what rose in the hearts of the citizens would be disappointment, desolation, fear.
But if they were to lose to Takamanopara's bunch of Xiao Bagagas, the citizens' mentality wouldn't be able to accept it.
"Boom!"
A grand sun rose within the arena, its dazzling light radiating in all directions.
This rising sun ascended to the Sky Battlefield, revealing a young man dressed in a kimono.
The mustache just under his nose was particularly awkward to look at.
His eyes flickered with a gold and red glow, as if fierce flames were burning within them.
The young man was the Descendant of Amaterasu, gesturing provocatively towards the Daxia resting area.
"People of Great Xia, come forth and meet your death."
That arrogant demeanor and tone, even through the screen, were keenly felt by the audience.
"Damn it, the Bagagas who've been living comfortably, you'll soon be fucked."
"Scumbags, putting on airs before the fight even starts."
"What's there to be so cocky about, Bullet Island, how dare you be so insolent."
"God's Child, you've got to be strong, crush them!"
Filled with youthful vigor, the Citizens of Daxia were already cursing, with a barrage of comments flying across the screen, venting their anger.
The people from Takamanopara wanted to retort, but were outmatched in number. If one dared to speak up, in an instant dozens or hundreds would be targeting them with insults.
"You bunch of People of Great Xia need not be arrogant; soon your God's Child will be brutally crushed by our Takamanopara contestant."
"Heh, just wait and see!"
The more rational among the audience couldn't help but feel worried.
After all, Luo Yu's fights had already spread online, and this Takamanopara contestant had surely seen them, but still acted so arrogantly, which meant he was confident.
"You've got to be strong, Luo Shen."
"You can't lose to them."
"Absolutely can't let those little Bagagas strut around."
Luo Yu, with eyes reflecting that intensely golden silhouette, slowly shook his head.
He did not respond to the opponent.
"Damn it! This bastard is too arrogant." Cao Potian, grinding his teeth in anger, was ready to swoop in immediately.
"No."
Luo Yu stopped him, and Cao Potian instantly looked over in confusion.
"You are very likely not his match," said Luo Yu.
Cao Potian nodded, "Of course, I know that. I wanted to help you test out his attack methods, to make it easier for you to deal with. Even if I have to sacrifice my life, it doesn't matter."
"As long as I can help you win against these guys, that's enough."
Luo Yu, out of the corner of his eye, noticed Xiang Kunlun and the others harbored the same thought.
Touched yet bemused, he said, "You guys really have too little confidence in me. You don't think I could be taken down by some minor characters like them, do you?"
"Minor characters?" All four were taken aback.
"Hahaha."
Luo Yu laughed and said, "You all just watch my performance down there. In fighting them, Our Great Xia can't afford a single loss."
With a light tap of his foot, he took to the air effortlessly.
There was none of the explosive, terrifying momentum that the Descendant of Amaterasu had shown; his spirit was contained.
As Luo Yu went into battle, all eyes in the venue covertly gathered on him.
The people from various forces in the live broadcast room also began to watch attentively.
Great Xia, even if not favored now, had a history that was simply too rich.
No one could ignore this historical depth of Great Xia.
As the only God's Child of Great Xia, everyone, even if not optimistic, held a bit of deep-seated wariness in their hearts.
Luo Yu and the Tianzhao Divine Child stood facing each other.
After the Tianzhao Divine Child looked Luo Yu up and down with unrestrained contempt, he sneered, "Kid, do you know? Being the first to draw you guys from Great Xia, this divine child is very pleased."
Luo Yu turned his head to the judges' stand below and called out, "Can we start now?"
The referees were Luo Yu's people, and they immediately nodded in assent.
At the instant the bell rang,
Luo Yu made his move, transforming into a golden streak of light that slashed across the sky.
And the Descendant of Amaterasu was still busy showing off.
He was promptly seized by the head by Luo Yu and fiercely thrust upwards into the sky.
"Boom!"
With a forceful squeeze of Luo Yu's hand, the Descendant's skull instantly burst apart.
Breaking into countless golden specks, before scattering apart.
His body, reduced to one without a head, plummeted downward.
The sudden swift and precise scene elicited cheers and leaps of joy in the broadcast room.
However, none of the competitors on the field spoke up.
They were all waiting for what would follow.
Because they all knew clearly that such an attack, which spelled certain death for ordinary people, was just a minor irritation for those who inherited Divine Power; it didn't matter at all.
Luo Yu, as a golden light, dove down, catching up with the maimed body.
With a kick, he directly blew the headless torso apart.
Bursting apart in mid-air.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Like fireworks on New Year's, explosions thundered in the sky, the rumbles echoing without end.
The golden light scattered across the sky.
"God's Child is mighty!"
"God's Child is amazing, hammering that little Bagaga without a chance to fight back."
"Isn't he the Descendant of Amaterasu? Isn't he impressive? What happened to him now?"
"Whoa, it exploded."
"Bagagas, take a good look at your god child, why isn't he barking now?"
As Luo Yu gained the upper hand, the live broadcast room, with billions online, was suddenly flooded with Great Xia's characters, mocking the little Bagagas with no end.
But Luo Yu didn't let his guard down.
Under the scrutiny of his divine sight, even though the Descendant of Amaterasu's body was smashed to bits, his core was undamaged and could regenerate all the same.
In fact, at this time, all he had to do was use the Secret Technique of Myriad Transformations.
The Descendant of Amaterasu would inevitably be doomed.
But he didn't; that was his real trump card and bottom line, which couldn't be used now.
