I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

"Thank you so much, Xian'er, you've helped us a lot." Yan Ziming almost wanted to prostrate herself in worship; she wouldn't have gone on stage without this mask.

"Don't do it again—"

"The opening ceremony has now come to a grand close! Please welcome our athletes to the field!"

"Yahoo—!!!"

The cheers that filled the entire venue were deafening, completely drowning out Liu Mengxian's words.

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Be Quiet

"Xian'er, what do you want to say?"

After the initial wave of revelry subsided, Yan Ziming returned to the previous topic. She could clearly sense that Xian'er was a little unhappy, probably because it was too noisy.

Liu Mengxian paused for a moment: "Remember this in the future..."

The deafening sound rang out again, followed by another meaningless opening remark. Liu Mengxian's words were once again drowned out, and Yan Ziming instinctively felt that something bad was about to happen.

Liu Mengxian was very annoyed to be interrupted twice while talking to Yan Ziming, and she would not give anyone a second chance.

"Now, let's give them a warm round of applause!"

"Quiet down." Liu Mengxian calmly uttered three words, which exploded like a thunderclap in the center of the arena. The earth-shattering sound wave swept across the entire venue, making countless people's vision go black, as if they had a feeling of dark clouds pressing down on them.

The cheers of tens of thousands of spectators and the host's shouts were all drowned out by these three words. All sounds disappeared instantly under these three words, and the entire competition venue, including the entire seventh section, became silent in an instant. You could hear a pin drop.

Mo Sheng, who was on her way to the podium, felt the same way as everyone else on the field. She felt as if the sound was right next to her ear, which made her vision go black and her face turn pale with horror. She almost blurted out the name Liu Mengxian.

With his own power, he intimidated hundreds of thousands of people from all directions, causing the heavens and earth to tremble and making everyone in the entire Seventh District dare not make a move, remaining completely silent.

Who else could have done this besides Liu Mengxian, a super powerhouse at the Soul Heaven Realm whom she knew?

"It's her! This is troublesome..." Yan Shan, who was watching the live broadcast in his office, recognized Liu Mengxian's voice and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The silence lasted for about a minute before the host, unable to withstand the pressure from higher-ups, picked up the microphone and continued the opening ceremony, albeit at a much lower volume.

"Haha... I didn't expect His Majesty Mo Sheng of China to play a little joke on us, but it's alright, let's give a warm welcome to His Majesty Hyde of the United States, His Majesty Mo Sheng of China, and His Majesty Lansend of the European Union!"

The atmosphere returned to its lively state, and the host's words to ease the tension were quite effective. Although the audience was still somewhat skeptical, they couldn't resist the enthusiasm for the event and reluctantly accepted the explanation.

"How did this get dragged into me?" Mo Sheng felt innocent and confused. She really wished she was the one who shouted those three words, but unfortunately, she wasn't strong enough!

In a flash, Mo Sheng understood. Of all the capable women the host knew who were present, he only knew Mo Sheng, so naturally he shifted the blame onto her.

After all, no one would have guessed that there was also a Soul Heaven Realm expert, Liu Mengxian, present; no one would believe it if the story got out.

It's amazing that this host from China was able to turn things around even in such a situation; he has impressive mental fortitude.

Mo Sheng highly regarded the host and wondered if she should promote him in the future, then walked up to the podium.

Sun Jie, the host of the Civilization Cup, had no idea that his future would be brightened by Liu Mengxian's three words. All he knew was that the situation just now had been very close.

About half a year ago, during the battle to reclaim Yongjing, he was fortunate enough to be there and watch the battle between Shan Qilin and Huang Tao against the Grim Reaper. The shock brought by that divine battle seemed to pale in comparison to Liu Mengxian's soft whisper just now.

He was only invited to host the Civilization Cup and provide commentary in Chinese; I've never heard of him being threatened by an unparalleled powerhouse!

In all his years as a host, he had never encountered such an embarrassing and dangerous situation. Liu Mengxian's shout almost scared him to death. If this hosting job hadn't been related to his career, he would have abandoned the microphone and left.

On the other side, however, the scene is quite different.

Seeing that the noisy place had returned to its previous liveliness, Liu Mengxian frowned slightly. Just as she was about to intimidate him again, Yan Ziming quickly covered her mouth.

"Xian'er, please! This is someone else's property. They can do whatever they want. We shouldn't interfere, for both reason and morality!"

Yan Ziming hurriedly advised, "If this divine master shouts again, even if the host is a reincarnation of a god, he won't be able to smooth things over. This Civilization Cup will truly become a 'Civilization Cup'."

Everyone kept to their own place, not uttering a sound, so quiet that you could hear a whisper. Isn't that civilized enough?

"Then it's up to you."

Fortunately for Yan Ziming, Liu Mengxian listened to her advice. She was still wondering what to do if Liu Mengxian came up with some kind of "might makes right" argument.

"Thank you, Xian'er. Let's talk about it when we get back."

Liu Mengxian nodded slightly and looked at the huge LCD screen next to her. Everyone in China breathed a sigh of relief.

This stunningly beautiful fairy was clearly not Mo Sheng. All they knew was that Liu Mengxian had been brought over by Mu Mu and the others; they knew nothing else.

Now they know that, besides her mysterious origins, her strength is terrifying to an unimaginable degree!

"Where did you find such a powerful figure?" Qin Di whispered to Ye Qianxue. He was very curious about who Liu Mengxian was and whether her strength was at the level his grandfather had mentioned.

“She’s my older sister’s teacher,” Ye Qianxue replied succinctly.

"Teacher?!" Qin Di was slightly taken aback.

Someone who can be Yan Ziming's teacher must be at least a ninth-rank expert, right? And stronger than Mo Sheng; even a marshal couldn't have achieved that level of power with that shout just now.

He wanted to ask more questions, but the host's announcement, "Please invite the contestants from each country's team to the stage," made him hold back and return to his own queue.

......rostrum

"You're really slow. Aren't you going to introduce that mysterious, powerful figure from your China who's been hiding in the shadows?"

Hyde asked tentatively.

The host said it was a joke Mo Sheng made, which ordinary people who don't know anything and most superhumans can barely accept because they don't have a clear understanding of the highest level of superhumans.

Hyde, who had reached the pinnacle of superpowers, knew that such a shout was something that a ninth-tier expert could not achieve. He could also stop the entire audience with a shout, but he knew he could not intimidate a ninth-tier expert.

But Liu Mengxian did it.

With a soft shout, all things fell silent. Even Hyde, one of the most outstanding superhumans, was startled and remained stunned for a long time.

Moreover, judging from the fact that she spoke Chinese, he could tell that she was from China. So when Mo Sheng arrived, he immediately began to probe her.

In response to Hyde's questioning, Mo Sheng simply smiled and said, "No comment."

Lansenk frowned: "That's not very ethical of your Chinese country. How could such powerful individuals secretly infiltrate another country?"

The cunning rabbit dies, the running dog cooks.

He was also worried about people like Liu Mengxian infiltrating the EU, so he decided to bring the matter up and resolve it here.

Mo Sheng sat down in the chair without a care in the world, while Old Shen said casually:

"All I can say is that I don't know her and I can't control her. You know how influential the Civilization Cup is. Maybe she's just a reclusive expert who came to visit. There are plenty of powerful people hidden all over the world. Now that one has just appeared, what's there to explain?"

“She’s speaking Chinese!” Ransek emphasized.

Does speaking a particular language necessarily indicate one's nationality?

"..." Lansenk was speechless. Mo Sheng hadn't revealed any information. Now that things had come to this point, Liu Mengxian's identity had become even more mysterious.

So, this is their opportunity!

Hyde and Lansink's eyes lit up, their minds racing with various schemes, all heading in roughly the same direction.

—Since Liu Mengxian is not an official of the Chinese government, it proves that she can be won over!

Who doesn't know the importance of a ninth-tier expert? Bringing them on would elevate our international standing, let alone an expert like Liu Mengxian.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Numbers

Mo Sheng naturally knew what these two guys were up to, but she didn't think Hyde and his group had any hope of succeeding.

The reason is simple: Liu Mengxian was already bound to Yan Ziming from the very beginning, and Yan Ziming's uncle was a marshal of China, who was also bound to China. So there was no way that Liu Mengxian would end up with someone else.

It can be said that their efforts were destined to be in vain.

Mo Sheng wouldn't be foolish enough to try to persuade them. He was happy to see them suffer setbacks and rejections at Liu Mengxian's hands. Besides, his advice would be seen as an attempt to discourage them from growing stronger. Mo Sheng wasn't about to offer his help only to be met with indifference.

Let them be. They'll come back bruised and battered after they've suffered enough.

Only teams representing various countries from around the world were present on the field. This was not because the organizers discriminated against them, but because there were too many participants from the general public, and they simply couldn't accommodate everyone. Therefore, they were not allowed to participate on stage and only appeared during the competition.

"So many years have passed..." Looking at the official Chinese teams lined up in twelve columns on the field, Mo Sheng suddenly felt as if it were a lifetime ago.

Back then, she also represented China, standing confidently on the same stage. However, her strength was still weak at that time, and she did not achieve a good ranking. At the sixth level, she was defeated by a seventh-level player from the United States and missed out on the top ten.

However, her current achievements are definitely higher than those of that seventh-rank person back then. At least, Mo Sheng has never heard of that person since then, and he probably died on the battlefield.

"I hope they can fulfill my wish from back then... It's up to you guys."

Mo Sheng stared at Yan Ziming and her group for a long time, silently repeating to herself.

She hoped that Yan Ziming and the others could wash away her regrets. Their achievements at that age were far greater than hers at that time. Even today, with the number of people with superpowers skyrocketing, they are still the most likely to win the championship.

As if they were using up all the nation's fortune for the next few decades, after Mo Sheng, Mu Mu appeared, then Yan Ziming and Ye Qianxue, and recently, Mo Xin and Tian Tian, ​​who is showing similar potential, were added. China has never seen so many talents emerge in the same era.

A peaceful and prosperous era!

Once they have all grown up, China can attempt a full-scale counterattack against the mutated species, and the beginnings of a peaceful and prosperous era for China are already visible.

Yan Ziming, who was on the field, had no idea that Mo Sheng had placed all her regrets on them. She only felt that she had reached the pinnacle of her life.

—Hot, irritable, and dizzy.

Several different phenomena occurred simultaneously on Yan Ziming, who was stepping onto such a big stage for the first time. Although she quickly suppressed them, the cheers from the audience still made her a little dizzy.

Yan Ziming's trembling right hand was quietly grasped by Ye Qianxue, who was standing behind him. The icy touch instantly sobered him up, and he tightly gripped Ye Qianxue's hand.

"It's rare to see my big sister so nervous~" Ye Qianxue's red lips touched Yan Ziming's earlobe, and she breathed softly, causing Yan Ziming's earlobe to turn red instantly.
