Chapter 113: Everyone Falls in Love (15)
What was He Yu's weakness?
Although they were shocked that He Yu had been so unlucky as to draw the only Weakness card, this wasn't even selected by some “unlucky partner.” The vine had simply picked one at random.
Still, they were all curious.
Who didn't want to defeat He Yu?
Whether they wanted to kill him was one thing. Whether they hated him was another.
But whether they wanted to defeat him—
That was something else entirely!
Everyone who had come this far had once been a famous expert of the Federation, all favored children of heaven.
Especially the people gathered here. They had all been renowned even before entering <Top Talent Show>.
Yet they had all been toyed with by He Yu.
Yes.
Toyed with.
Though they didn't want to admit it, the truth was that they could do nothing against He Yu and constantly had to worry whether they had fallen into another one of his traps.
Defeating someone like He Yu—
How satisfying would that be?
In the previous instance, Eugene and the others had tried.
They failed.
Yesterday, Duan Yuchen had tried.
He failed too.
—If they had to summarize it, then it was simply that they hadn't found He Yu's weakness.
Eight combat power?
That wasn't He Yu's weakness.
A weakness was a point through which one could defeat someone.
The fact that he had reached this point with eight combat power proved that combat power wasn't his weakness at all!
A weakness wasn't something one feared.
A weakness was—
A point where others could strike and defeat you.
Everyone stared at He Yu, anticipation gradually appearing in their eyes.
Once they knew the weakness through which He Yu could be defeated, they would undoubtedly rush to act.
Even if they didn't, possessing knowledge of He Yu's weakness meant they would no longer need to fear him so much.
Their eyes grew brighter and brighter.
Even Zhen Xing's gaze held curiosity.
Probably only Bo Jingshan, who came from Blue Star like He Yu, worried about his weakness being exposed...
He Yu swept his eyes across their increasingly bright gazes.
It was very quiet.
Everyone was looking at him, waiting for him to speak.
The black card in his hand disappeared.
His hoarse voice was calm—
“Sorry to disappoint you. Weakness?”
“None.”
Everyone: “???”
Audience: “???”
No weakness?
How was that possible?!
How could He Yu not have a weakness?
He was so thin and frail-looking.
His combat power was only eight.
And things like “Taiji,” “Absorbing Stars Technique,” and “He Qi Yu Qi” all had numerous limitations.
How could he have no weakness?!
Eugene, Duan Yuchen, and the others were completely dumbfounded.
[Bullet Screen: “? Nobody can be without weaknesses!!”]
[Bullet Screen: “What's going on? Did He Yu lie?”]
[Bullet Screen: “Holy crap, an invincible garbage-planet contestant with eight combat power, that's unbelievable!”]
[Bullet Screen: “Actually, it's not impossible... First we need to understand what 'weakness' means. Here, weakness isn't a fragile point, nor something he's afraid of. It's a point through which he can be defeated! If nobody can defeat him through any aspect, then that isn't a weakness, so naturally he has no weaknesses...”]
...
After answering, He Yu remained extremely calm.
This was Truth or Dare.
He hadn't lied.
Nor did he possess the ability to oppose this world's rules.
Therefore, “no weakness” was the truth.
But was He Yu truly invincible?
Not necessarily.
Returning once again to the essence of this challenge—
Truth.
What was truth?
It was what He Yu truly thought in his heart, forcibly spoken aloud, impossible to lie.
In other words—
If He Yu genuinely believed he had no weakness, then had he lied?
Was that not his true thoughts?
—No weakness was He Yu's truest truth.
He looked down on the combat power system.
Therefore, low combat power wasn't his weakness.
He looked down on equipment.
Therefore, lacking equipment wasn't his weakness.
Even if he truly came from Blue Star, Blue Star would never be his weakness.
It was merely something he wanted to protect.
The only things He Yu truly cared about were probably “attention” and “audience favor.”
He wouldn't leave the spotlight.
He enjoyed the attention, gazes, and admiration of others.
But even that wasn't a weakness.
Because he firmly believed—
He would always possess those things.
A person who believed in themselves was invincible.
—Of course, he wasn't going to explain any of this to others.
—Let them continue fearing and dreading him.
He Yu calmly watched the spinning pointer.
And calmly accepted everyone's shocked gazes.
The dumbfounded crowd gradually regained their senses.
Eugene grabbed his head.
“No, how can you not have a weakness? You really don't have one? He Yu, was that really the truth?!”
He refused to believe it!
How could he?
If He Yu had no weakness, how could they defeat him?!
Gedai's mechanical voice became sharp.
“How is that possible? A garbage-planet contestant with eight combat power—how can you have no weakness?”
After the previous instance ended, they had learned in the transfer station that He Yu really had only eight combat power.
Though unbelievable, Wanrenzhan and Duan Yuchen had no reason to lie.
Moreover, He Yu had never personally fought anyone and indeed didn't look like someone with high combat power.
No matter how hard it was to believe, they had accepted it.
But now—
Just after accepting his eight combat power—
They had to accept this terrifying fact that he had no weakness?
Duan Yuchen: “......”
He silently wrapped his underwear tighter around himself while calculating when he could get some clothes.
As for defeating He Yu?
Forget it.
In the future, the farther he stayed away, the better.
Meeting this hateful and invincible disaster star never brought anything good.
One answer had shaken everyone.
Their gazes toward He Yu became complicated and shocked.
But since it was reality, they could only accept it through gritted teeth.
Silently, they reminded themselves—
Never provoke a person without weaknesses.
Of course, they already didn't dare much.
Even someone as indomitable as Eugene, when seeing He Yu now, only had one thought—
【Want to stay alive? Stay away from He Yu!】
The wheel stopped again.
This time, the pointer landed on Duan Yuchen.
He took a deep breath and looked hopelessly at Zhen Xing, waiting for his choice.
He had spared Zhen Xing earlier by choosing a red card.
Yet Zhen Xing had immediately declared that he wanted to kill him.
Duan Yuchen had already understood—
Zhen Xing wouldn't spare him.
Fortunately, the most terrifying Weakness card had already been drawn.
Zhen Xing reached out and picked up a black card.
Written on it was—
“Besides death, what do you fear most?”
Duan Yuchen: “......”
Sure enough.
Zhen Xing showed no mercy whatsoever.
Covering his chest with resistance written all over his face, his mouth involuntarily opened—
“What I fear most is having my forging skills looked down upon...”
Everyone: ......
As expected of the forging master.
Even his fears were so unique.
But now—
They knew how to deal with Duan Yuchen!
Since he had exposed his weakness and fears, they couldn't be blamed for striking exactly where it hurt.
Wanrenzhan rubbed his hands together.
“So you're afraid of your forging skills being looked down on? Hahaha. Not to mention anything else, your forging skills really aren't all that great.”
Duan Yuchen exploded.
“Nonsense!”
Wanrenzhan raised his chin and sneered.
“You know yourself whether it's nonsense. Back in Fiery Hell, wasn't the Banana Leaf Fan forged by He Yu superior to your skills?”
That Banana Leaf Fan was something Duan Yuchen couldn't create.
And something he couldn't understand.
Wanrenzhan had struck directly at his sore spot.
Duan Yuchen: “......”
He couldn't refute it.
Furious from embarrassment, his chest rose and fell violently as he glared at Wanrenzhan.
He swore he would learn He Yu's forging techniques!
So what if he had to cooperate with He Yu?
For the next thirty days, he would listen to everything He Yu said.
There was no way he wouldn't learn anything.
He absolutely would not allow his forging skills to be looked down upon!
Zhen Xing said lightly,
“Continue. The pointer's stopping again.”
As soon as he finished speaking, it stopped in front of Qiong.
Qiong: “......”
Spreading her hands helplessly, she looked at Siya.
“Leave room for others. You'd better think carefully before choosing.”
Siya immediately laughed.
“Threatening me? I, Siya, wasn't raised to be scared!”
There weren't many troublesome black cards left.
Siya wasn't afraid at all.
She directly chose for Qiong—
“What is the most important thing to you?”
This question was somewhat similar to “greatest trump card.”
Right now, in <Top Talent Show>, the most important thing was effectively one's greatest trump card.
Qiong took a deep breath.
Slowly she answered—
“My right little finger.”
Everyone froze.
Siya immediately asked,
“Why your right little finger?”
Hands were important, sure.
Even if Qiong had simply answered “my hand,” nobody would find it strange.
But specifying the right little finger—
That was suspicious.
Clearly, something was hidden there.
But...
What mystery could a finger possibly contain?
Qiong's expression turned cold.
Her gaze was icy.
“Do I need to explain it to you?”
Siya had directly forced her secret into the open.
How could Qiong not hate her?
She even wanted to kill her.
Especially with everyone staring at her right hand.
It made her feel like needles were pricking her back.
He Yu also glanced casually at her little finger.
At that single glance, Qiong instinctively hid her right hand behind her back.
Only after doing so did she stiffen.
—Damn it!
She had subconsciously acted guilty!
Looking at He Yu, she met those smiling eyes.
Qiong almost wanted to cry.
He Yu withdrew his gaze and continued watching the spinning pointer.
This stage really was interesting.
Every single one of them had plenty of secrets.
The pointer stopped.
This time, it pointed at Siya.
Qiong looked at her unfriendly.
Siya smiled.
“There aren't many black cards left. Go ahead and choose.”
The reason she'd targeted Qiong so recklessly earlier was because the remaining black cards weren't very frightening.
Sure enough, the later it got, the safer it became.
Her unlucky partner couldn't possibly screw her over.
Qiong sneered.
“You think I'm that stupid?”
She reached out and calmly turned over a red card—
“What have you hidden from your partner?”
Siya's expression changed.
Her calm eyes instantly filled with shock.
Her pupils contracted as she stared at Qiong.
Everyone had been paying attention to the black cards.
None of them had noticed that the red cards contained such questions.
What had she hidden from her partner?
There were too many things.
Siya herself didn't know which answer she'd end up giving.
Panic appeared in her eyes.
But when the countdown ended, her mouth naturally opened—
“I still have a potion that can increase combat power hidden away.”
Everyone looked at her.
Eugene said calmly,
“You sure have plenty of good stuff...”
One after another, everyone possessed valuable treasures.
And in <Top Talent Show>, besides luck, there was another convenient way to obtain good things—
Kill contestants with good equipment.
Naturally, plenty of items would drop.
Siya clenched her fists.
Like Gedai with his Promotion Card, she had become a target.
Looks like she needed to use it as soon as possible.
Grinding her teeth, she hated Qiong just as much.
“Qiong, I will definitely kill you!”
Qiong sneered.
“Likewise.”
He Yu lowered his eyes to the ground and curled his lips slightly.
—Very good.
—Everyone's “feelings” toward their partners had deepened.
—The love detection later would definitely be interesting.
Only one person remained.
The pointer naturally stopped before Bo Jingshan.
He had offended Wanrenzhan before, and the two had always been at odds.
Naturally, Wanrenzhan wouldn't spare him.
Sure enough, Wanrenzhan had already decided.
He quickly grabbed a red card—
“Who do you like?”
Bo Jingshan answered calmly—
“He Yu.”
Liking He Yu was normal.
And “like” covered a broad range of feelings.
Even before meeting He Yu, Bo Jingshan had admired him.
After meeting him—
There was no need to mention it.
He admired him even more.
Of course, Ling Buchen's influence played a part.
After all, the guy mentioned “He Yu” three hundred times a day.
After hearing it enough times, feelings naturally developed.
Wanrenzhan flew into a rage.
“I knew it! You covet He Yu!”
Unable to leave his position and attack Bo Jingshan, he could only glare at He Yu with wide eyes on his scarred face.
“See that? He likes you! He Yu, stay away from him from now on!”
