This time, the audience in the arena behaved differently from the previous duel. Many people supported Maverick Swordsman.

Almost 90% of the audience was convinced that 0 would win in the celestial level arena.

And those female cultivators became [0]’s enthusiastic fans after seeing his face.

Especially Mu Yanluo, who had once publicly supported the Maverick Swordsman. When asked by the crowd, her face flushed with embarrassment as she replied, “I believe 0’s strength is unquestionable. Anyone who challenges him is simply overestimating themselves. I will always support 0.”

Time passed little by little. Soon after, there was less than 15 minutes left.

However, the stage remained eerily empty, with not a single person in sight.

As the audience grew restless, some even standing to look around, a sudden flash of white light appeared in the arena. In that instant, a man dressed in a dark purple brocade robe materialized on the stage. He exuded grace and elegance, his handsome features striking and unmatched.

“0! It’s 0! Ah~, I finally get to see 0 again!”

“I love you! You are the strongest!”

“0… 0… 0…!”

The audience erupted with excitement. The deafening cheer was so powerful it seemed as though it could overturn the entire celestial level arena.

Yet, the man standing on the stage remained icy and aloof, his expression blank. It seemed like nothing around him mattered, as if he were completely detached from everything happening in the arena.

“0 is already here. Why hasn’t 007 come yet?”

“Who does he think he is? He’s more arrogant than 0!”

Just as everyone was talking and expressing their dissatisfaction, a white light suddenly flashed at another teleportation array in the center of the arena. A young man with a slender figure and unparalleled handsome appearance soon appeared.

The light from the crystal stones in the arena cast a faint glow on the young man’s face. His already pale complexion seemed almost translucent, devoid of any trace of color, as though all life had drained from him in that moment.

His pristine white teeth gently pressed against his lower lip, resembling a delicate flower petal. Under the pressure of his teeth, the vibrant, fresh color appeared so vivid it seemed as though it could release a drop of dew.

His long lashes fluttered gently, casting a shadow that obscured the expression in his eyes. Despite the veil, the uncertainty and nervousness he felt were palpable, radiating from him into the air.

The crowd that had scolded him and insulted him suddenly fell silent.

There was something about the young man that stirred a deep desire to protect him. Even those who had just moments ago felt anger and resentment towards him now found themselves yearning to rush forward and wipe away the sorrow in his expression.

At that moment, Xi Yue stood alone on the stage. Despite having a big crowd surrounding her, she felt as though she were isolated amid a raging storm, overwhelmed by a sense of loneliness and uncertainty.

She firmly held her Li Shui Sword in her hand, but she kept trembling.

She knew that the person she had longed for through countless days and nights stood right before her. Yet, she couldn’t bring herself to look up, too afraid to confirm if it was truly him.

Because she didn’t look up, she didn’t see her opponent’s reaction.

The man, who was always unshaken even in the face of disaster and maintained his cold, indifferent demeanor, trembled visibly the moment he laid eyes on her. His pupils dilated, and the storm of emotions swirling within him threatened to overwhelm his composure, nearly driving him to the brink of losing it.

He took a deep breath, closing his eyes for a moment. When he opened them again, only then did he truly confirm that the person before him was real. With a stern expression, he began to walk toward her, each step measured and deliberate.

Xi Yue stood just a few steps away from [0] on the stage, and she could distinctively hear the sound of his footsteps approaching.
