I get stronger by sunbathing, just like Superman.

"How about it?

If you agree, once I receive the prize money, I'll give you the coordinates of Earth's galaxy, or even take you there myself...

of course,

That is, if you can actually win the championship.

Max didn't speak, but her gaze remained fixed on the high-tech bracelet in her hand...

The next second, he flicked his arm, leaving a blur in his wake!

Valkyrie only felt a blur before her eyes, and her bracelet was snatched away.

But she remained completely calm, watching Max examine the bracelet closely with an expression of composure.

Unfortunately, after studying it for a long time, Max still couldn't figure out how to open the interface; it was all written in alien script.

He didn't know any of them.

Enraged, Max glared fiercely at Valkyrie:

"Tell me, how do you use this thing?"

Otherwise, I'll kill you and find someone else!

"I'm sorry... no one but me can use this thing, and..."

You won't kill me.

Valkyrie smiled confidently and said calmly:

"If you wanted to kill me... you would have done it the moment you woke up, why wait until now?"

Max was a little annoyed by her calm and composure, but he had no words to refute her and was speechless for a moment.

Seeing his expression, Valkyrie became even more convinced of his judgment.

"Admit it..."

You're not the kind of person who would kill someone indiscriminately. I could tell that a long time ago, back when you were feeling guilty about accidentally killing that 'bartender'...

That look,

It's something none of the guys living here have.

As she spoke, she gave Max a look that was hard to decipher.

"Judging from your appearance... you should be a human from Earth. As far as I know, people from that planet are very happy to impose moral shackles on themselves to bind themselves..."

If I'm not mistaken,

You're that kind of person.

These words silenced Max.

Deep down, I have to admit that Valkyrie's judgment was very accurate.

He was a superhero for over a decade. Although he eventually chose to abandon his duties and went through a period of depression and despair, he never degenerated into a ruthless killer.

Although quite a few villains have died at his hands.

finally,

Max gently lowered her back to the ground and released his grip on her neck, saying:

You guessed right…

I'm definitely not that kind of person.

Valkyrie rubbed her slightly reddened neck and asked:

So, does that mean you agree?

Max remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement.

"Good!"

Valkyrie immediately beamed with joy. But then Max added:

"Let's make this clear first,"

I will do as you say, win that championship, and I won't take a single penny of the prize money, it's all yours..."

At this point, he changed the subject:

"But if I find out you're trying to lie to me again, you can forget about getting a single penny of the bonus!"

And I will make you pay the price for deceiving me!

"make a deal!"

Valkyrie did not hesitate.

Afterwards, the two changed their clothes and went straight to the competition venue to register.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, Max didn't fly directly there, but instead obediently stayed in Valkyrie's aircraft.

They flew all the way to the championship arena.

The entire circular arena covers an area of ​​over 200,000 square meters. Apart from the largest arena for the championship, the surrounding area is practically a super entertainment city, offering everything from food and drinks to entertainment!

With Valkyrie, a local expert, leading the way, Max naturally had a smooth journey. Along the way, he saw all sorts of strange alien races gathered here, indulging in revelry, which was dazzling to behold.

While riding the elevator, Max could see the ring in the distance through the glass window.

At this moment, two alien warriors on the stage are fighting fiercely, each wielding a heavy weapon. The battle is incredibly brutal, with flesh and blood flying everywhere!

The cheers from the audience were deafening.

Although it looked exciting, with punches landing with real force, Max scoffed at it.

Those two guys were only of average strength; they'd be nothing more than a fleeting glance in his presence, no…

They don't even need heat vision; one punch is enough to take him down.

If all opponents were at this level...

Then winning the championship would be a piece of cake for him.

He only watched for a short while before losing interest. Now, all he wanted was to finish quickly, get the coordinates, go to Earth, and complete the task Lei Ming had given him.

We must find his clone at all costs and completely free him from the sun!

"Ding…"

With a crisp ringing sound, the elevator doors opened, but what lay behind them wasn't the registration area he had imagined…

Instead, it's a restraint chair.

Standing nearby was a group of flamboyantly dressed alien creatures, including a white-bearded old man wearing sunglasses who was waving a mechanical arm and smiling smugly at him…

He turned to Valkyrie and asked, "What does this mean? Didn't you say you'd take me to see the Grandmaster and register me for the competition?"

"Don't rush..."

Valkyrie calmly waved his hand, looking at the unshaven, disheveled Max, and said:

"Grandmasters aren't people you can just see whenever you want, and with your current state, forget about getting you a spot in the competition."

"I'm afraid he'd have us kicked out the moment he saw you."

"What kind of bullshit rules are these? Why are there so many rules for a tournament?"

If he dares to lay a hand on me, I'll raze this place to the ground in a heartbeat!

Max expressed her dissatisfaction, but at the same time didn't think there was anything wrong with her image; she called it a decadent style.

You guys don't know anything.

But in the end, he was persuaded by Valkyrie's kind words... and under duress from her using Earth's coordinates as 'blackmail',

He obediently sat down in the restraint chair.

"I'll go register you first, and someone will take you there after you're done here."

After saying that, Valkyrie continued to take the elevator up to the next floor.

"understood."

Max nodded, then looked up at the building.

With his X-ray vision penetrating through the layers of buildings, he saw a luxurious room on the top floor.

An elderly man with a human appearance, carrying a scepter and dressed in ornate clothing, caught his attention. He was extremely arrogant and surrounded by numerous soldiers.

This must be the 'master' Valkyrie was referring to.

'Looks pretty ordinary...'

He muttered to himself, then absentmindedly looked around...

Meanwhile, a group of alien Tony teachers surrounding him also began their work.

First, the old man in sunglasses had a pair of sharp scissors pop out from his mechanical hand, seemingly intending to cut his hair short.

But when the knife was cut, not a single hair was severed.

The scissors broke in two.
