Chapter 558: Chapter 361: Ten-time Champion_2

"Your Highness, thank you for your efforts."

"It’s only right."

Sofia exchanged a few pleasantries, then eagerly led the Alien Species away.

"Come, come, come!" Ji Xinghuo said with a laugh, taking Zhao Manying’s hand, "Let’s count together and see if there are actually 4,000 Ether Crystals here."

Zhao Manman spoke, "I’ve counted already; there’s no mistake."

With her True Eye and Quantum Mind, a single glance was enough to yield exact data even if she couldn’t see all the items under the boxes; she could instantly match the data with the fluctuations of Ether Energy.

"I’ve never seen so many Ether Crystals before," Zhao Manying said with a sigh, picking up an Ether Crystal, "They’re much more shocking than the numbers in a bank account."

"Yes..."

Ji Xinghuo nodded.

Ether Crystals were like gold before the Star Gates opened, even more precious and better at holding their value. Now, gold had been reduced to an industrial material.

The two of them counted by hand again and then divided them up.

Of this batch of Ether Crystals, 2,000 were from the sale of the Absolute Hit and the other 2,000 were bought. Ji Xinghuo took 3,000, and the remaining 1,000 went to Zhao Manying, who immediately deposited them into the Ether Research Institute.

The Ether Research Institute, located within the Star Realm Department, was one of the safest places in the country, teeming with experts. It was convenient for her as she also needed to consume Ether Crystals regularly for her cultivation and could retrieve them whenever necessary.

Ji Xinghuo also deposited several hundred crystals into the Ether Research Institute and planned to find an opportunity to put the rest into his Dimension Stomach.

Afterward, he began his cultivation.

This time, unlike his previous push to ascend to Legendary status, Ji Xinghuo didn’t feel as urgent. He reduced his daily cultivation time to about 10 hours, balancing work with leisure, and spent more time with Zhao Manying, accompanying her to away matches.

He often gave pointers to his older sister Ye Dongyun during her cultivation, sparred in Martial Arts with his second brother Zhong Ming, and oversaw Wang Zizhen and Liangqiu Feiyan’s training, with significant results.

Even so, Ji Xinghuo’s Star Power continued to grow rapidly.

On average, his Star Power increased by 1,500 points every month.

By the end of December,

Ji Xinghuo’s Star Power had broken through 26,000 points. With just three more months of cultivation, he could touch the boundary between the First Dan and the Second Dan of Legendary.

A Mutant at the Legendary Second Dan would compress their Star Power again, increasing its density.

He would reach the point of Star Power Emission.

Ji Xinghuo estimated that once he hit 30,000 points in Star Power, he would be able to emit it, but he intentionally slowed down his cultivation pace.

For a Mutant, each stage’s limit of Star Power depends on the number and quality of the fused Alien Species.

Since ascending to Legendary, he had only merged with one "Overload."

That wasn’t enough to significantly raise his Star Power limit. Although he had one more chance to merge, Ji Xinghuo had considered it for a long time. He often purchased Alien Species of various levels to assess them with his Wanxiang Star Pupil, checking the Fusion Success Rate, but he hadn’t found any Alien Species that satisfied him.

Only one "Shadow Clone" had a Fusion Success Rate of 88%, which was substantial.

The Shadow Clone was a Transcendent Species.

It would greatly enhance his strength, and Ji Xinghuo was quite tempted.

However, considering the increasing difficulty in finding capacity-expanding treasures after Legendary, and the scarcity of strong and compatible Alien Species, Ji Xinghuo decided not to fuse with the Shadow Clone.

He would reserve his last fusion opportunity for "Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body."

The leader had mentioned they would obtain it within the next year.

"First, cultivate to the upper limit of Legendary First Dan and then stop, waiting for the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Body," Ji Xinghuo formulated his plan, "If there’s a clue to a capacity-expanding treasure, search the Star Realm; it’s a good excuse to visit Sister Ren in Peach Blossom Valley, it’s been half a year since I last saw her..."

Just thinking of Ren Mian made Ji Xinghuo’s blood rush and his body heat up; then he glanced around a bit guiltily.

At the end of December.

"Ten-time champion!"

"Sword Immortal is invincible!"

In the national stadium of the Tianqin country, the hundreds of thousands of spectators shouted enthusiastically, standing up to watch the three-dimensional projection at the center of the stadium, cheering for Zhao Manying.

Today was the final battle of the domestic super league to decide this season’s champion.

It was a best-of-seven series.

Zhao Manying’s Emperor Star Team had already won three consecutive games and was about to clinch the fourth, sweeping the opponent from the series.

Ji Xinghuo sat in the front row, cheering for his girlfriend.

In the projection, Zhao Manying wielded the Jinghong Sword, flying at high speeds in the sky, a valiant figure surrounded by colorful sword lights that attacked her opponents like a tidal wave, nearly crushing the entire opposing team single-handedly.

Despite the opponent’s desperate resistance, they still fell one by one under the overwhelming sword lights.

When the core member of the opposing team was slain by the sword light, the entire venue erupted into thunderous cheers.

The battle was over!

Zhao Manying had won her fourth championship trophy in her career, and it was a fourth consecutive championship, a first in the history of domestic super-league competitions.

With six international invitational championship wins, she became a "Ten-time champion".

And it was ten consecutive championships!

In four years, she had won every competition she participated in, her overall win rate exceeded 95%, and even in the few losses, it was due to the special mechanisms of the map that led to her forced defeat, Zhao Manying herself was not killed.

Such terrifying win rates and honors allowed Zhao Manying to stand shoulder to shoulder with "Divine Walker" Jeffrey, and many commentators believed she was already the greatest in history.

The venue was filled almost entirely with Emperor Star Team fans.

More so, Zhao Manying’s fans.

After slaying her opponents, she didn’t immediately exit the Spirit Realm World; she hovered in midair, her Spirit Sword Bracelet retracted to her wrist, and the Jinghong Sword sheathed. Calm and composed, she waved at the camera, revealing a breathtakingly beautiful smile that charmed all.

"Wow..."

"Sword Immortal! Sword Immortal! Sword Immortal..."

At that moment, countless viewers nationwide and worldwide cheered for her, frantically shouting her name and nickname.

Ji Xinghuo was genuinely happy for Zhao Manying.

He looked at his girlfriend on the screen and suddenly noticed some emotions that outsiders couldn’t see; she didn’t seem

very excited.

Despite the brilliant smile, a few shades of ennui lay deep in Zhao Manman’s eyes.

Even boredom.

"The loneliness of the invincible..."

Ji Xinghuo chuckled, understanding Zhao Manying’s thoughts.

In the professional league, she no longer had any opponents, and she didn’t even need teammates; she could take down the entire opposing team by herself. Defeating these competitors who were far weaker than herself time and time again without any pressure, like going through the motions, devoid of any surprises or excitement; eventually, it becomes boring.

As the clubs that were pressuring her said, Zhao Manying had indeed disrupted the balance of the super-league.

The entire league’s popularity was monopolized by Zhao Manying.

Emperor Star Club was making a fortune, while the other teams became stepping stones, losing their competitiveness.

Competitiveness was the lifeblood of the league. If every game lacked suspense and the champion was known at the start of each season, then most viewers, apart from the die-hard fans, would drift away.

This was also not beneficial for Zhao Manying’s own growth.

The crowd began to celebrate wildly.

The members of the Emperor Star Team exited the Spirit Realm World and stepped onto the platform. Amidst the fervent cheers, they accepted an interview from the host.

Then came the award ceremony for the season, and the atmosphere reached its climax.

Ji Xinghuo, however, was in deep thought.

Although Zhao Manying covered it up well, giving appropriate answers during the interview that won praise from all viewers and earning her fourth "Golden Crown" for most valuable player, some still noticed her lack of enthusiasm.

But most people didn’t think too much of it because Zhao Manying’s contract still had two years.

Emperor Star Club wouldn’t let her leave.

By the time her contract ended, Zhao Manying would certainly win two more league championships, and next week’s international invitational championship was as good as hers.

The fans were already looking forward to it.

"Two years..."

Sitting in the front row, Ji Xinghuo looked at her, feeling the audience’s enthusiasm around him, listening to their discussions, and couldn’t help but shake his head.

"These two years should be used to aim for the legendary, not wasted on the battlefield." Ji Xinghuo stroked his chin, "Man Ying’s contract break fee is more than 30 billion; we can easily afford it."

But the thought of paying the Shi Family so much money annoyed him.

Ji Xinghuo had an idea: "Why not just buy out the Emperor Star Club, make it a family asset? The value of the Emperor Star Club has soared over the past few years, it’s a quality asset, but would Shi Hongyi be willing to sell?"
