Chapter 1293 Even among geniuses there is a chasm!
The battle just now had indeed taken a huge toll on her, and she wouldn't be able to recover for a while.
However, it's not to the point where she's completely exhausted!
"That attack just now, if it were against a mid-stage God Emperor, I would have been able to put up a fight!"
You Ru thought to herself.
She frowned slightly, clearly not satisfied with her performance.
"My combat strength and killing power are among the worst in my sect. Even my junior sister's killing power is slightly stronger than mine. If it were my senior brothers and sisters here, they would definitely do better than me!"
Instead of becoming complacent, You Ruo was deeply reflecting on where she could have done better.
With this worry in her heart, she stepped off the stage with graceful steps amidst the admiring and awe-inspiring gazes of countless people.
When everyone saw that she showed no excitement or joy after her victory, they were puzzled. This didn't seem like the demeanor of a victor; instead of happiness, she seemed more like regret for not doing well enough.
What's happening here?
Not happy even after winning?
No, it's not that I'm unhappy.
Was it a kind of...disdain?
Yes, it's disdain!
She was disgusted with her own performance just now!
When this outrageous idea popped into everyone's minds, everyone felt as if their worldview had been crushed and trampled on countless times!
"I...I didn't see wrong, did I? That expression of hers, does she think I didn't play well?" One of the prodigies gaped wide, dropping all the melon seeds in his hand.
"Didn't play well? Dude, you call that playing poorly?" The person next to him looked at him like he was an idiot.
"A mid-stage God King, directly confronting Shi Kai's Profound Crystal Undying Body, and finally using that world-destroying Sevenfold Wave to suppress a monster whose combat power was approaching that of an early-stage God Emperor! Is that what you call a bad fight?"
"Then why does she have that expression? It's exactly the same as the expression we have when we fail an exam and are waiting to get a beating when we get home!"
"Fuck!"
"Fuck!"
The gasps of surprise that rose and fell completely turned into a uniform string of profanities.
Everyone was about to lose their composure!
Is this fucking impossible for anyone to live in?
You're already this amazing, and you're still not satisfied?
Then what about us so-called prodigies who have been left far behind by you?
Is it the trash on the roadside?
A holy son from a certain holy land, his face was pale, his lips were trembling, and his fists were clenched tightly.
He originally thought that although there was a gap between himself and people like Shi Kai and You Ruo, it was still within the range that he could catch up with.
He only found out after watching this battle today.
What is a chasm?
What is despair!
But now, the woman who created this despair is still dissatisfied with herself?
puff!
The holy son felt a tightness in his chest, couldn't catch his breath, and his Dao heart almost shattered on the spot!
"Madmen! They're all a bunch of madmen!"
"What kind of sect does she belong to? Do they only produce these monsters who don't treat people like human beings?"
"I've got it, brothers, I've completely got it! We're not even from the same world as them!"
"Stop talking, I want to be alone!"
From the stands, there was a chorus of groans.
Countless geniuses felt their pride and confidence shattered by You Ruo's calm yet regretful gaze.
People are more mad than people.
No, this is no longer just a matter of being infuriated.
This is a question that can make you question your existence and whether you are a complete failure!
On the high platform.
The expressions of those powerful Divine Emperors were even more interesting than those of the younger generation in the spectator stands.
They've lived for countless years; what haven't they seen?
But today, they were truly amazed.
Besides the collective breakdown of these young prodigies, the important figures who came to witness the ceremony also couldn't hold back any longer.
"She...is dissatisfied with her performance?" The middle-aged man in the golden python robe twitched at the corner of his mouth and turned to look at the gray-robed old man beside him.
The old man in the gray robe remained silent for a long time before slowly uttering a few words.
"Her reference point is not Shi Kai."
Not Shi Kai?
what is that?
None of the powerful Divine Emperors present were fools.
In an instant, they realized a possibility.
"She's probably comparing herself to someone stronger! Perhaps, in her mind, others can do it better than her?"
This conclusion caused all the powerful Divine Emperors to gasp in shock.
She's already so outstanding, who could do better than her?
If she had other fellow disciples, could they have done better than her?
If that's true, how terrifying must her sect be?
In her view, delivering a blow powerful enough to threaten a mid-stage God Emperor was merely "not done well enough"?
What exactly constitutes "doing a good job"?
Can one sword kill a peak God Emperor?
The powerful Divine Emperors exchanged glances, each seeing deep apprehension and horror in the other's eyes.
Their gazes changed completely as they watched You Ruo's retreating figure.
That's no longer about looking after a junior.
Instead, they see a terrifying being who is equal to them, or even surpasses them in the future.
"Don't overthink it. She's already so exceptionally talented, how could there be more geniuses as exceptional as her? She's just setting the bar too high for herself!"
Soon, a powerful expert at the peak of the Divine Emperor realm spoke indifferently, seemingly not taking the discussion of the crowd to heart.
These words made everyone nod in agreement; their earlier guesses were indeed quite astonishing.
However, only they themselves know the shock they felt inside!
While everyone in the audience was either going crazy, dumbfounded, or still in shock.
"Senior sister!"
This clear shout made countless people instinctively look in the direction of the sound.
A girl in a light purple dress was seen holding onto the railing, standing on tiptoe, and waving her hand vigorously towards the arena.
Her face beamed with an undisguised, radiant smile, and her bright, sparkling eyes seemed to be filled with stars.
That pure, heartfelt joy formed an incredibly vivid, even glaring, contrast with the blank, desperate, or solemn expressions around him.
Xie Purou swayed, her movements as light as a purple butterfly, tracing a graceful arc in the air before landing steadily beside You Ruo.
"Senior sister! You were so cool just now!"
Xie Purou caught You Ruo, who was still swaying slightly, her face flushed with excitement.
She looked You Ruo up and down and asked with concern.
"How are you? Are you alright? How come Shi Kai is so tough? The force of the rebound must have been considerable?"
When You Ruo saw her, a gentle smile finally melted into her slightly furrowed brows.
She shook her head slightly.
"I'm fine, junior sister. I'm just a little exhausted."
"It's okay!"
Xie Purou breathed a sigh of relief, then clenched her little fist and waved it.
"But Senior Sister, you were absolutely awesome just now! Those seven waves, each one more powerful than the last!"
Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for some people nearby to hear.
