Section 881

His words were followed by a series of shouts.

“Xu Zi'an!”

“I've heard much about you!”

“Hiss… I feel like his strength has grown again!”

“Haha, Lord Xu, how much hatred have you accumulated… As soon as you arrived, good heavens, it feels like these Alien Race and Insectoid Race members want to devour you!”

Words from the Human Race's Peerless Geniuses continuously echoed in Xu Zi'an's communicator.

There were those he knew, and those he didn't.

Xu Zi'an responded to all of them with a smile.

“Xu Zi'an! You finally decided to show up!”

As expected, soon, in the Universe's public communication channel, a chilling voice rang out, whether from the Alien Race or Insectoid Race Prodigies, it was unclear.

Not only that, the Cosmic Human Race members present could clearly feel a surge of overwhelming rage directed towards Xu Zi'an the moment he and the Brilliant Fleet appeared.

This rage even included the Town Starship Captains of the Alien Race and Insectoid Race!

If not for their last bit of sanity restraining their actions, they would have likely thrown caution to the wind and attacked the moment they saw Xu Zi'an.

Xu Zi'an ignored them, opened the Universe's public channel, and spoke with a cold, flat voice: “What do you mean, I finally decided to show up?”

“Weren't you useless bunch the ones constantly clamoring to challenge me?”

“Weren't you clamoring that I didn't dare accept a challenge?”

“Now that I'm here, stop the nonsense. Who wants to go first? Or do you all want to come at once?”

There was no need for idle chatter with these century-old enemies. A direct, straightforward approach was best.

“Hmph! Arrogant!”

“Indeed, conceited!”

“Do you truly believe that among the Peerless Geniuses of our generation, you are truly invincible?”

“I'll go!!! I hope your strength is as arrogant as your attitude!”

“Xu Zi'an, I want to duel you! Do you dare or not?!”

They were all Peerless Geniuses, all high-spirited and proud.

Although Xu Zi'an's strength was indeed quite formidable, in their view, Xu Zi'an's ability to kill across ranks primarily relied on the assistance of the Brilliant Fleet!

They had all watched the video of Green Mansha's attack.

Undeniably, although Xu Zi'an was a star destroyer-class, he already possessed the strength of a Void Ship. No one could deny this.

However, to say he was stronger… they didn't believe it.

They were all Peerless Geniuses too!

In the video, if not for the Brilliant Fleet's assistance, Xu Zi'an would absolutely not have been able to achieve such power. At least, that's what they believed.

Already seething with anger, Xu Zi'an's current arrogance was naturally intolerable!

Immediately, an Alien Race Peerless Genius of Void Ship-level leaped out and challenged Xu Zi'an.

However, before Xu Zi'an could respond, the Human Race side refused first.

“Tsk… You useless bunch, a Void Ship challenging a star destroyer to a duel? Where do you get off?!”

“Our Xu Zi'an is only a star destroyer, and you, a Void Ship, speak with such arrogance, how shameless!”

“Ho, a Void Ship challenging a star destroyer to a duel, I’ve lived so many years and this is the first time I’ve seen it! Come, come, since you have no Face, neither do we! I am a Void Ship, and I also challenge you! Do you accept or not?!”

The Prodigies on the Human Race side immediately began to mock them.

Those taunting tones made the Peerless Geniuses on the Alien Race side flush with embarrassment.

But, under normal circumstances, facing such verbal mockery, the Alien Race would have already jumped up in anger.

However, this time, they were surprisingly silent, not a single one uttered a sound.

The Void Ship Captain who challenged Xu Zi'an, though his Face was beet red, simply wouldn't leave.

This included the Insectoid Race side as well.

The Human Race was mocking them.

Normally, the Insectoid Race wouldn't miss such an opportunity to mock the Alien Race.

But this time… not a single one opened their mouth to mock.

They weren't foolish. The Alien Race wasn't foolish, and neither was the Insectoid Race.

Although they internally concluded that Xu Zi'an would definitely not be ridiculously powerful, they could accept Xu Zi'an, currently a star destroyer, killing ordinary Immortal Ships across ranks, or even fighting a Void Ship to a draw.

However, to say that Xu Zi'an could now easily kill a Void Ship that was also a Peerless Genius… they didn't believe it. Absolutely not!

What did this mean?

It meant that in the eyes of Xu Zi'an, a Peerless Genius, they, also Peerless Geniuses, were just like ordinary people?

Impossible. Absolutely impossible!

Therefore, no one from the Alien Race spoke up!

And the Insectoid Race didn't join in the mockery either!

In fact, if the Alien Race hadn't been the first to challenge Xu Zi'an to a duel, their Insectoid Race would also have sent a Void Ship Captain to challenge Xu Zi'an!

Face or no Face… it was indeed very important. But compared to eliminating Xu Zi'an…
