198: Chapter 198 Matched with Bai Song

The barrage for this match exploded the instant they saw this!

[They're just forfeiting like that?]

[Brother, where's your backbone?]

[A duel between equals, and they just forfeit? Is this staged?]

[You've completely disgraced the Liu Family!]

However, everything that followed immediately shut all the trolls up.

The second match, the third, the fourth... the thirtieth!

Every contestant matched against Chen Yi, regardless of their family background or rank, had the exact same reaction.

The moment they saw their opponent was Chen Yi, their expressions changed drastically, and then they forfeited at light speed without any hesitation!

Their movements were clean and efficient, as if they had practiced it countless times!

The barrage also shifted from initial mockery to confusion, then to understanding.

[Uh... something seems off, right?]

[Another one forfeiting...]

[Wait, does Chen Yi carry a plague? Why is everyone just forfeiting?]

[Brothers! I think I get it now. If I were matched against Yi Chen, I might forfeit even faster than them...]

[+1 to the guy above. Isn't it better to save energy for the next match? Why insist on going up there just to get one-shot and waste energy?]

It wasn't until Chen Yi secured his thirtieth victory that he was matched against Yi Qianfan, a young master from the Yi Family of Stone City.

This person was relatively humble and pragmatic. Believing his own strength was not bad, he couldn't suppress his curiosity and wanted to see for himself just how strong Chen Yi really was, so he chose not to forfeit.

"Mr. Chen Yi, please enlighten me!"

Yi Qianfan sent his strongest Contracted Spirit Beast Girls onto the field, bracing for battle.

Chen Yi nodded, not even moving.

Lin Mengxue, who was beside him, stepped forward and parted her red lips slightly, and a bone-chilling Breath of Ice instantly swept across half the field.

Yi Qianfan and his spirit beast didn't even have time to react before they were instantly frozen into a giant ice sculpture.

They were then judged by the system referee to have lost combat capability and were teleported out.

One-shot!

Still a one-shot!

The barrage went completely silent, then exploded once again.

[I get it, I totally get it now!]

[It's not about having no backbone, it's just impossible to fight!]

[The gap... it really is too huge!]

[Saving energy is definitely the wise choice!]

After all, the battles in the Beast Taming Contest were not like the Sequence Competition, where one only fought with a virtual body.

Instead, after receiving a fatal wound, one was teleported directly to the outside world, and the stamina consumed was real!

With such a huge gap in strength, it was better to just forfeit and fight someone else!

From this point on, no one questioned those who forfeited anymore.

Chen Yi's path to a winning streak was without suspense.

Two and a half hours later, his record was locked at ninety-nine consecutive wins!

His score reached 99 points, placing him at the top of the rankings.

Far exceeding the 37 points of the second-place, Leng Wuhen!

Yun Zhiyao, who was watching the live stream via a light screen in the hotel, felt her heart surging with excitement, her blood boiling.

After all, she had not yet formed a contract with Chen Yi, and according to the association's regulations, she could not participate.

But even so, she still fantasized about the scene where she would form a contract with Chen Yi and then gallop across the battlefield!

It was just... too cool!

The crushing sense of power brought by Chen Yi's absolute strength left her completely captivated.

She became increasingly impatient, already secretly considering whether she should use some unconventional methods, like sneaking into Chen Yi's room at night or something... to seal the deal and accelerate the assessment progress?

Xue Haiyao, who had been sent by Luo Qinghe to protect Chen Yi during the competition, saw the Yun Family's young lady in such a starved state, and couldn't help but shake her head repeatedly, clicking her tongue in secret.

As a woman who was also supremely talented, beautiful, and powerful, Xue Haiyao was naturally arrogant and dismissive of others in her daily life.

But regarding Yun Zhiyao's family background and appearance, even she felt a bit inferior.

Yet who would have thought that with such conditions, in front of Chen Yi, she would actually only be in a position to proactively request a contract, or even have to scheme about seducing Chen Yi?

This Chen Yi... really is absurd, it's just off the charts!

---

Chen Yi looked at his record of ninety-nine consecutive wins, and as a man with a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, he always felt it was just short of being perfect.

"Ninety-nine and one hundred, they sound completely different! I'll fight one more match to round it off, then see how things go!"

He muttered, and clicked the button to continue matching.

Then, the system interface flashed, and the match result appeared.

The moment he saw the opponent's information, the barrage in the entire official live stream exploded completely!

Traffic soared in an instant!

Chen Yi's one-hundredth opponent was none other than—Bai Song!

[Holy crap? Is this a fated duel?]

[The one-hundredth opponent is actually Bai Song!]

[Talk about enemies crossing paths on a narrow road!]

[A real man's battle!]

All kinds of barrages flooded the screen instantly!

Everyone was excited!

The grudges and feuds between these two had trended on the hot search list several times!

Bai Song had just forcefully charged to second place in the Sequence Competition yesterday, breaking through 4000 ladder points, and was in the limelight!

And Chen Yi was the Yi Chen who broke historical records!

Both were peerless geniuses capable of rapidly climbing the rankings!

The anticipation for this duel was absolutely maxed out!

Bai Song surely couldn't forfeit now, could he?

A white light flashed, and both sides were teleported to opposite ends of the battle arena.

Bai Song was stunned for a moment when he saw Chen Yi opposite him, then his face revealed an extremely excited and ferocious fighting spirit!

"Hahaha! Chen Yi! Heaven is truly helping me! I didn't expect to meet you so soon! Perfect, right here, in front of the national audience, I will trample you completely under my feet! To wash away my previous shame!"

He was incomparably confident.

So what if his Sequence Competition ranking wasn't as high as Chen Yi's?

That was just a score for fighting against AI!

In a real one-on-one battle, he was now completely confident he could win against Chen Yi!

As long as he let Red Snake pin down those Contracted Spirit Beast Girls of Chen Yi, with this powerful strength he now possessed.

He would definitely be able to tear Chen Yi apart with his own hands!

He still stubbornly believed that last time in the arena, even though he had used a weapon and still suffered a crushing defeat to Chen Yi, it must have been because Chen Yi used some kind of well-hidden secret treasure, which caused him to suffer a setback!

It was just that he had no evidence, so he couldn't say much!

But now the Beast Taming Contest battlefield was absolutely fair, prohibiting all external factors!

How could his current physical body not be able to defeat a mere Chen Yi?

However, facing Bai Song's aggression, Chen Yi's attention was not on him at all.

His gaze landed immediately on the woman in black robes with a seductive figure beside Bai Song.
