Chapter 257 - 257 Strength Speaks (1)
257 Strength Speaks (1)
Ning Shi deliberately used a unique vocal technique to say this. This sentence miraculously reached everyone’s ears in the noisy Rose Bowl Stadium.
Everyone was in an uproar!
Whether it was the live audience or the people watching the live broadcast from all over the world, they were all stunned.
Didn’t the commentator just say that the second awakening was a unique talent of humans?
After so many years of human development, was Carlato the only genius with a second awakening?
Hawkins had just mocked the Yunmeng Kingdom, saying that they did not have a second awakener. He did not expect a second awakener to appear at the scene.
Moreover, he was a controversial figure.
Ning Shi was the principal of Donglin City’s First Strength Awakener School. He was also the master of Luo Yao, Jiang Bichao, and Zong Shangren, who had been in the limelight during the world competition.
Those who liked him praised him for being the mentor of the strength-type awakeners and a monumental figure who pushed forward the cultivation process of the human awakeners.
Those who hated him believed in the rumors and thought that he was a murderer who killed geniuses by hook or by crook, a tyrant who destroyed fairness and justice.
Ning Shi’s words triggered a huge discussion among the audience.
However, the Mieln Federation’s staff did not react in time, especially the referee, Crawford. This was not part of his rehearsal, and he was at a loss when faced with Ning Shi’s request.
Fortunately, Hawkins reacted quickly and said on the commentary platform, “Ladies and gentlemen! There is another huge plot twist in the scene!
“There is actually a second awakener in the Yunmeng Kingdom!
“Please wait for a moment and let the referee take the test paper. We will test Mr. Ning Shi’s reaction to the branding substance in front of everyone.”
Only then did Crawford come to his senses. He said to Ning Shi, “Mr. Ning Shi, I’ll go get the test paper, please wait a moment.”
With that, he jumped off the stage and walked backstage.
There was actually a test paper in the referee’s pocket. The so-called test paper was just an excuse.
With such a sudden situation at the scene, he had to consult the relevant leaders on what to do next.
When Crawford walked backstage with a frown and was about to look for Whitman, an unfamiliar voice came from his earpiece.
“Crawford, I am Silver, the president of the freedom council. I order you to immediately agree to Ning Shi’s request and test his reaction to the branding substance.
“Pray that he can pass the branding substance reaction test!”
Although Crawford had never heard of this voice, he had long remembered the name of the president of the freedom council. He was the actual ruler of the Mieln Federation.
He did not doubt the other party’s identity at all. The identity of the person who could send him a message through this earpiece could not be fake.
“Alright, respected President Silver. I will do as you say.”
With the order, Crawford instantly calmed down. He pretended to go backstage to get a test paper. During the process, he saw Whitman’s happy face and gave him a thumbs up.
Crawford didn’t understand why they were so happy about Ning Shi’s appearance until he returned to the arena and heard the host Hawkins’ analysis.
“According to the information, Mr. Ning Shi is a Tier 9 awakener, and his ability is strength-type. I have to admire Mr. Ning Shi’s courage. With the strength of a Tier 9 awakener, he dares to challenge an Overlord.
“I can only say that no one with a brain would do such a thing.
“This is because there was a qualitative difference in strength between a Tier 9 awakener and an Overlord.
“A Lord can easily deal with dozens of Tier 9 awakeners.
“Mr. Ning Shi’s actions are suicidal. This might be the so-called national honor of the people of Yunmeng Kingdom!”
Crawford tested Ning Shi according to the normal procedure. Ning Shi’s blood dripped on the test paper and ignited a purple flame.
[ Branding substance reaction test passed! ]
Hawkins announced loudly, “Mr. Ning Shi has passed the branded substance reaction test! He is also a unique genius in human history.
“He is only 27 years old this year, but he is already a Tier 9 awakener. He is also the first strength-type awakener, leading the development of strength-type awakeners.
“His achievements and talent are worthy of being recorded in the history of mankind. Unfortunately, he will fall here today as the defeated opponent of another genius, Mr. Carlato!”
At this moment, Ning Shi was also going to participate in the competition. He was over 18 years old. The Mieln Federation was not the only one who violated the verbal agreement. The Yunmeng Kingdom had also done so.
The Mieln Federation’s decision to send Carlato on the field would have received much less criticism.
However, Ning Shi’s surface strength was not as good as Carlato’s. Even if he participated in the battle, it would not affect the Mieln Federation’s victory.
Therefore, Whitman and Silver were very happy when they saw Ning Shi participate in the competition.
Hawkins understood this as well, so he began to brag about Ning Shi’s achievements in his commentary.
The more he boasted about Ning Shi, the more powerful Carlato and Mieln Federation appeared after defeating such a powerful opponent.
“Mr. Ning Shi, you have passed the branding reaction test. According to the agreement, you are qualified to participate in the competition. Are you sure you want to participate in the competition and fight Mr. Carlato?” Crawford asked.
“Yes. Let’s start quickly!”
Ning Shi was already tired of the Mieln Federation’s performance. He urged.
Crawford didn’t say anything more. He picked up the whistle in front of his chest and put it in his mouth. He raised his right hand high and suddenly lowered it, blowing the whistle in his mouth.
