Chapter 487: Chapter 326 Grasping the Heavenly King_2
Ji Xinghuo thought for a moment, "Ninety percent."
"What?"
Zhong Ming’s face was filled with disbelief. If Ji Xinghuo had said there was a fifty percent chance, he wouldn’t have doubted it, but ninety percent?
He shook his head, "Li Xuan is a Heavenly King after all, you can’t be careless."
"So what if he’s a Heavenly King?"
Ji Xinghuo’s expression remained calm, "The gap between Mutants is greater than that between humans and pigs. Not all Heavenly Kings are the same. If it were another Heavenly King, I would consider it more carefully, but against Li Xuan, heh heh..."
Li Xuan was a very special among the Heavenly Kings.
He was the youngest of the 49 Heavenly Kings worldwide, just reaching 50 years old, but he wasn’t the youngest in history, nor was his talent the best.
His combat talent was impressive, but he had never been through a life-and-death test.
His fighting style was also a bit off, going for the best visual effects, grand in momentum, with sword light filling the sky, comparable to movie special effects. However, for Mutants who grew up through real combat, it was somewhat flashy without substance.
His Star Power was rushed to ascend to Heavenly King status quickly, to create enough buzz to attract attention, so it wasn’t deeply accumulated.
In short, there was a reason why Li Xuan was ranked fifth from the bottom among the Heavenly Kings.
Of course, Li Xuan wasn’t completely without merit.
To become a Heavenly King, to stand out among the billions of people on Earth, Li Xuan’s talent was beyond doubt, and he certainly had a few tricks up his sleeve.
The chasm between a Heavenly King and the Legendary was enough to wipe away many of Li Xuan’s shortcomings.
Moreover, Ji Xinghuo was only a Super Mutant.
"A Super Mutant beating a Heavenly King, I wouldn’t even dare to dream of it." Zhong Ming felt like he didn’t understand Ji Xinghuo anymore, to think so little of a Heavenly King.
"Second bro, you’re still not seeing the big picture." Ji Xinghuo chuckled, "What others can’t do, I can."
He looked at his brother.
"I’m the number one on the ladder, and I will also be number one among the Legendary, the number one worldwide!" Ji Xinghuo said earnestly, "What others can’t do, I can do; the rules that others can’t break, I can break; because I am Ji Xinghuo!"
Because I’ve got an edge.
Those words shook Zhong Ming to the core, as if he was meeting the person he’d grown up with for the first time.
Zhao Manying’s eyes also shone brightly, holding Ji Xinghuo’s hand tightly.
"Awesome!"
It took a while for Zhong Ming to come back to his senses.
"Hahaha..." Ji Xinghuo patted his shoulder, "You don’t need to worry too much, even if I face off against Li Xuan, it won’t be until October 1st. By then, I probably won’t just be a Super Mutant."
Zhong Ming’s eyes widened, "You’re going to evolve into a Legendary?"
"That’s the plan." Ji Xinghuo nodded.
To evolve from a Super Mutant to a Legendary, there was also a bottleneck this time, with the biggest challenge being to increase the density of Star Power, compressing it from a plasma state to a Flowing State.
This required a lot of Star Power, which was very difficult for other Mutants.
Countless Super Mutants had stagnated for years just to grow their Star Power but never reached the necessary threshold in their lifetimes.
Ji Xinghuo knew he wouldn’t have any problems. ƒreewebɳovel.com
His Star Power was more than five times that of a regular Super Mutant, easily reaching the threshold, only requiring some Support methods to trigger Evolution.
The Ether Research Institute had the relevant research; he would just need Director Ke’s help when the time came.
To evolve into a Legendary, and then integrate Overload.
With his strength rising to another level, bridging the gap with Li Xuan, the confrontation in October wouldn’t necessarily be a guaranteed victory, but the odds were in his favor.
"Damn it." Zhong Ming suddenly cursed, a helpless expression on his face, "We grew up together, are about the same age, and used to be similar in strength. Now you’re going to evolve into a Legendary, and I’m still just an Intermediate Mutant, our gap is getting bigger and bigger."
Ji Xinghuo smiled, "So, second bro, you need to work harder."
"After dinner, I’m going back to the Ether Research Institute." Zhong Ming nodded fiercely, deciding not to rest that night.
Zhao Manying also felt the pressure.
She was about to speak when Ji Xinghuo’s phone rang.
"It’s Li Xuan." Ji Xinghuo glanced at the phone before answering briefly and then hanging up.
Zhong Ming asked, "What did he say?"
"All the revenue from the broadcast goes to me, plus 20 billion Ya Yuan in cash," Ji Xinghuo relayed, "I rejected it."
That definitely wasn’t enough.
But he wasn’t in a hurry anyway, holding all the cards, letting Li Xuan worry instead.
Zhao Manying flipped her phone screen around, "The news about your showdown with Li Xuan is already spreading online, but there’s no mention of the Star-falling Species."
"Never mind that, let’s eat first."
The maglev car arrived at the restaurant the family had reserved.
For the next two days, Ji Xinghuo practiced as usual, spending 15 hours a day at the Ether Research Institute, and the rest of the time with Zhao Manying, inseparable and blissfully happy.
The showdown with Li Xuan was completely exposed, the heat online was very high, and it continued to dominate the headlines.
Li Xuan hadn’t even fought yet, but he had already benefited, gaining the traffic he wanted.
However, he hadn’t slept well for two days.
He stirred up the topic, accepted media interviews, and repeatedly mentioned the matter during live streams to increase his visibility, while also contacting Ji Xinghuo multiple times to raise the offer, but was rejected each time.
The more this happened, the more Li Xuan couldn’t bear to give up.
On the 19th, his team changed their strategy, openly publicizing the piece about the Star-falling Species and Absolute Hit.
It immediately caused a huge sensation.
"What the hell!"
Today, Ji Xinghuo hadn’t been cultivating but had come to meet Lu Yunhai, as tomorrow was Lu Yunhai’s wedding day, and as a groomsman, he had to prepare in advance.
While the two were discussing the arrangements for tomorrow, Lu Yunhai looked at his phone and suddenly shouted.
