Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 619 - 357: Consecutive Sweeps_2

Before now, when everyone looked at Ye Feng, their gazes were wary, tinged with some hostility.

But at this moment, that hostility vanished instantly, replaced by a sense of fear. The Fifth Order strongmen in the field all had a measure of each other’s strengths.

Zhang Baishan, despite only ranking tenth, had extremely tough skin as an Evolutionist. In terms of defensive power, he was definitely much stronger than those Superhumans ranked higher than he was.

If even he couldn’t withstand Ye Feng’s attack, then no one else could either.

However, Ye Feng didn’t have the time to consider what others were thinking. He casually chose a spot to sit down and immediately closed his eyes to sense his surroundings.

Because just now, he had actually felt the Power of Faith, and it was converging towards him.

Yet, like other strongmen, before reaching the Tenth Order, Ye Feng’s human persona couldn’t even think of touching or using the Power of Faith, not to mention how difficult it was just to sense it.

But Ye Feng was all too familiar with the Power of Faith. Coupled with his powerful spiritual power, he had just managed to perceive it slightly.

However, as Ye Feng tried to sense it more carefully, he embarrassingly found that although he could vaguely feel the Power of Faith, his human persona couldn’t mobilize it at all.

"It seems that there’s no hope for my human persona to exercise the Ability to Control Heaven and Earth, that must be unique to the World Tree," Ye Feng sighed lightly in his heart.

He then let the World Tree side absorb the Power of Faith surrounding him.

Although the human persona and the World Tree didn’t have any sort of contract between them, their souls were connected. This situation worked better than any contract, easily transferring the Power of Faith.

As the Power of Faith continuously transferred from Ye Feng’s side, he quickly calculated that, if the human persona could maintain the current situation,

he could amass about 30,000 points of Power of Faith in a day.

Although the amount might seem small, the issue was that Ye Feng’s current prestige couldn’t be compared to the Dragon King’s!

More importantly, compared to the miracles the Dragon King had shown before, even saving the entirety of Yang City, Ye Feng really hadn’t done much.

He had merely displayed his own strength and Talent.

"It seems that my previous guess was correct. To harvest humans’ faith, the human persona indeed has an easier time," Ye Feng revealed a slight smile, and then he also started watching the other matches.

Twenty arenas meant that forty people could compete in one round.

In other words, it wouldn’t take even four rounds for all 150 Fifth Order strongmen to complete their matches.

Under these circumstances, it only took about fifteen minutes for all the Fifth Order strongmen to finish their first round on stage.

Then the system drew lots again for the second round of competition.

Ye Feng watched the results of the draw, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Others were truly drawing lots, but his side was blatantly assigning opponents!

Because he was still on Arena 1, and his opponent was the second-ranked Yuan Hua.

Of course, seeing such a draw, the most disheartened wasn’t Ye Feng, but his opponent Yuan Hua.

Although he was very confident in his strength, he could also foresee that this match was very likely lost.

But the good thing was that the tournament used a point-based system, so even though he might lose a match, it wouldn’t directly end everything. There were still later matches, otherwise, he would have truly cursed.

Looking back at Zhang Baishan, who had been beaten up earlier, his opponent this time was a mid-stage Fifth Order competitor ranked beyond a hundred, which gave him an immediate sensation of relaxation.

But no matter what everyone was thinking, it did not interfere with the competition, which quickly commenced.

Ye Feng once again stood on Arena 1, and opposite him was Yuan Hua, whose face was full of seriousness.

The Sixth Order strongman acting as the referee looked at Yuan Hua and asked, "Are you ready?"

Yuan Hua took a deep breath and nodded.

"Good!" The referee raised his hand and announced loud and clear:

"Three, two, one, start!"

As the referee’s voice fell, Yuan Hua immediately unleashed his superpower.

His ranking, next to Ye Feng’s, was the highest, which naturally meant he had his strengths.

What he possessed was not an ordinary superpower, but the ability to summon a Giant Ape for combat.

The Giant Ape’s order matched Yuan Hua’s Realm, reaching the Fifth Order Peak.

Moreover, it was composed of rocks and energy and had no apparent weaknesses, making it extremely difficult to deal with.

Not only that, but Yuan Hua had also cultivated a defensive martial art called Heavy Water Gauze. As the martial art unfolded, a garment made of condensed water emerged on the surface of his body.

Heavy Water Gauze could defend against physical attacks as well as energy attacks, making it quite comprehensive.

It was precisely because he mastered these two top-level abilities, one offensive and one defensive, that he held such a high ranking.

When Yuan Hua had fully displayed his superpower and martial art, he finally felt some sense of security. What he feared the most was that Ye Feng would knock him out with his superpower right from the start.

Now he finally had a chance to fight back.

"Ready?" Ye Feng asked from the other side of the arena.

Yuan Hua looked at him and said seriously, "I know you are very strong, but I still want to say, you might be a bit too arrogant. What was a sure-win situation for you has now given me a chance to turn the tables."

Ye Feng raised an eyebrow and said, "Who gave you the illusion that you could turn the tables?"

Yuan Hua frowned and didn’t argue with Ye Feng any further. He pointed, and the Giant Ape beside him immediately charged towards Ye Feng.

But as the Giant Ape started to move, its body froze, then began to dissipate.

Thud!

And Yuan Hua himself, behind the Giant Ape, with eyes rolled back, fell flat on the ground.

Another instantaneous victory!

But this time, Ye Feng took an extra look at Yuan Hua because the latter’s Heavy Water Gauze, especially its defense against energy, was stronger than Ye Feng had expected, even capable of defending against spiritual power.

When he had knocked out Zhang Baishan before, his early stage of Sixth Order spiritual power had been enough, but just now, he had to explode into the Late Stage of Sixth Order to instantly defeat Yuan Hua.

If Yuan Hua were to face other Fifth Order Strongmen, Ye Feng felt that the possibility of Yuan Hua winning was still very high; he was a promising talent.

But to Ye Feng, that was all there was to it. After one glance, he calmly returned to his private room.

This time, after a brief silence, the audience around the high platforms burst into deafening cheers.

If Ye Feng’s first instant kill of Zhang Baishan could be attributed to luck, such as a power that just happened to counter the opponent’s,

Then another instant kill, this time of the second-ranked Yuan Hua, proved it was genuine strength.

...

"He used spiritual power," a person stood up at the backstage in shock and said.

The person speaking was Lu Tao, the Fifth Order Strongman ranked third, who excelled in spiritual power.

Journalists nearby were the first to react, immediately handing over the microphone, "What! Spiritual power? Lu Tao, could you have sensed it wrong? If he is a spiritual power fighter, why does he have such strong physical qualities?"

Lu Tao took a deep breath and said, "I definitely didn’t sense it wrong. In fact, the first time, I already felt it, but the release of the spiritual power was too fast, and considering the information stated that he excelled in physical qualities, I wasn’t sure."

"But just now, I have extended my spiritual power for sensing, and there’s no doubt about it; moreover, his spiritual power is extremely strong, having reached the Late Stage of Sixth Order, and it’s very likely not even his limit."

Hearing this, not just the interviewing journalists, but even the other contestants in the arena were shocked.

"Then what about the abnormal physical qualities mentioned in his information? Could the official data be wrong?" someone asked.

The person next to him immediately shook his head, "That’s impossible. The data provided by the officials is always triple-checked."

"So there’s only one possibility right now."

The person paused before continuing, "Ye Feng is very likely a Dual System Superpowered Being, and both powers he possesses are top-level superpowers."
