22-12 Phantom
The day passed quickly, and going to the waiting area to watch the matches had become a regular routine. Seeing himself back on the field for the 12 o'clock match, Mo Bei excitedly tugged at Dongfang Yun's sleeve, saying, "Yun'er, Yun'er, we can finally go out!" Dongfang Yun was also happy: "You can finally go out! I believe you'll win, and there's still the knockout stage." Mo Bei looked mysterious: "I already have a way for us to go out together." Dongfang Yun was delighted: "What is it?" Mo Bei replied enigmatically: "I'll tell you after I win." Dongfang Yun was somewhat pleased: "Okay, Mo Bei, you've even become a riddle teller, I'm quite looking forward to seeing what method you'll use to get us all out together." Mo Bei chuckled: "You'll find out then."
Soon it was time for the match. After finishing his food, a symbol of freedom, Mo Bei Xuanfeng began to look forward to his future: "Once I'm out, I'll find Chen Wenwu and the others, go home with Yun'er, and live a wonderful life." He confidently strode onto the field, the smile still on his lips. Raymond Gartres, seeing him enter the field so early for the first time, was slightly surprised: "Mo Bei seems full of energy. Is something good happening?" Mo Bei replied, "Yes." Raymond Gartres was also happy: "That's wonderful! Happiness is the most important thing." A little while later, another contestant entered the field, a man who looked like an older man...
"This match features the highly anticipated Mo Bei and the rising star from District 5, Lu Mugai'eqing." Mo Bei thought this person's name was strange, only to realize that he had forgotten to ask for the name after defeating 39 while going to the bathroom. He would definitely ask this Lu something-qing after defeating him this time. To avoid padding the word count, he would simply refer to him as Lu for now.
The spotlight shone on Lu, who then vanished, leaving Mo Bei searching for him. Suddenly, Mo Bei's shadow thickened (long-time fans of the Holy Domain will recognize this technique from the 9-9 beach arc; presumably, Lu's spiritual power manifests as a shadow).
Mo Bei decided to use his Thunder Flame Sky Soaring technique to fly and observe the situation. In a garden, several people watched Mo Bei's performance through a screen on a table. One of them asked, "Yu Hong, do you think your vines can control him?" The one named Yu Hong replied, "That's assuming it's his turn, and compared to your flying sword, I'm at a disadvantage." The other person laughed, "Oh, you're always the one who praises others." Yu Hong replied, "Hahaha, just the truth." Meanwhile, things weren't as relaxed for Mo Bei.
Mo Bei suddenly realized he couldn't leave the area of his shadow. "It seems Mo Bei has noticed something strange—he can't leave the area of his shadow! But why isn't Lu taking advantage of this to launch a sneak attack? It's so hard to guess!" At this moment, several people in the audience turned against him. "Damn it, he's so strong! I knew I shouldn't have bet on Mo Bei. It's all your fault for stirring up trouble." One audience member nudged the person next to him, while another was still taking a nap. The audience member who nudged the other was furious: "What time is it? How can you sleep like that?!" He shook the sleeping audience member awake.
Mo Bei, after being told this by Raymond Gatres, was also a little confused about Lu's intentions and could only float in the air to observe. Actually, Lu had his own unspoken difficulties. He had originally planned to trap Mo Bei and launch a sneak attack, but who knew that Mo Bei would fly up, and with his short reach, he couldn't hit his target in the sky. Lu decided to wear Mo Bei down, to see who had more patience.
The duration of Mo Bei Lei Yan Chang Tian ended, and he slowly floated down. Lu knew his chance had come, and the shadow beneath Mo Bei's feet darted about. The invited audience member continued to sleep: "This is just a waste of my time. I'm already so sleepy from traveling, and now I have to watch this boring stuff."
The instant Mo Bei landed, a giant hand emerged from the shadow beneath his feet and enveloped him. Trapped in Lu's space, Mo Bei was utterly blinded by darkness. Raymond Gatres quickly donned his special glasses to see the situation: "Lu pulled Mo Bei into his dark space, from which countless giant hands reached out to attack Mo Bei." The scene seen through the glasses was projected onto the platform beneath Raymond Gatres in the center. A spectator who loved to elbow people shook awake the sleeping man: "Look, look! How could you be asleep when it's so beautiful?"
Just as Raymond Gatres had said, Mo Bei dodged the giant hands surging in from all directions in the dark space, while a pair of eyes emerged from a corner. Mo Bei analyzed the situation as he dodged, and when he couldn't avoid them any longer, he decided to teach the giant hands a lesson with his fists: "That eye might be a weakness. After all, novels involving similar things are often written like this, and I believe the author is no exception." So he charged towards the eye. Lu's laughter echoed in the space. Mo Bei said, "Laugh again and I'll take you down." Raymond Gatres also shouted passionately, "Contestant Mo Bei has discovered Lu's weakness!"
Mo Bei dodged the giant hands that were blocking his way, but when he punched one in the eye, he found it had no effect whatsoever, and the giant hands seemed to multiply.
