I'm extremely interested in Nen abilities.

The five players who had cleared the level tried to force a fawning smile, but before they could say anything, Jing Yang shook his head and snapped his fingers. They, along with the other eight players controlled by the star, all changed their expressions, their eyes flashing with a jade-like light.

Bisky keenly noticed that the postures of these 13 people all subtly changed in an instant... and were very similar, just like Jingyang's habits.

This is direct, forced control. She thought, that saves her trouble!

"BOOK".

Jingyang called out his card collection book, took out a spell card, and shouted, "Use 'Travel Together'! Head to 'Shoufulabi'."

"Jing Yi," "Jing Er," and "Jing Shisan" stepped forward and surrounded them. Together with Jing Yang, Xiao Di, Bi Siji, Wu Er, and the rock sparrow on the tiger's head, a total of 18 players were enveloped by a white light formed by the spell card. Then, they were swept up into the sky with a "bang," and in the blink of an eye, they fell down from the sky with a "bang," landing on the roadside outside Shoufulabi Town.

It was only a dozen meters away from where they had just been...

“In short, this shouldn’t be like last time”—Jing Yi to Jing Shisan said one word at a time, and then Jing Yang smoothly replied, “You returned empty-handed, didn’t you?”

It was so interesting; Biscuit was thoroughly enjoying it.

"Go and see for yourself," said Xiao Di.

So the group of 18 turned around and headed directly toward the lighthouse fortress on the seaside they had visited before.

Upon arriving at the lighthouse, without further ado, Jingyang pushed open the door and entered the fortress. He easily found a large door deep inside, pushed it open, and the bright lights of the gymnasium came into view—however, it was still an empty gymnasium, with Lei Zha nowhere to be seen on the basketball court.

Jingyang remembered that in the comic, after fulfilling the condition of having more than a dozen players arrive together, Xiao Jie and his friends found a female NPC in Shoufulabi Town to introduce the quest. Then, the female NPC led them to find the death row inmates wearing pointed hats. After the death row inmates approved of them, they were led to the lighthouse by the death row inmates...

In other words, since it's a game mission, there must be a mission process!

Now, the NPC girl is nowhere to be found, and those death row inmates in pointed hats... uh, I led them through last time, and they were killed by Lei Zha with a few psychic bullets.

Jingyang strode into the gymnasium and shouted at the empty basketball court, "Hey, that's enough! We should have met the conditions for finding this place, it's just that the order is reversed, don't be so stubborn..."

Bisky and Shizuku followed them in, and Taliyah and her mount, Wu Er, also filed in with Jing Yi through Jing Shisan. Looking at the empty, brightly lit gymnasium, a man's voice suddenly came from somewhere: "There's no way around it, that's how the rules are, you have to follow them… Nobody likes someone who doesn't follow the rules, right?"

Leza!

Jingyang understood.

Just then, a beam of white light pierced through the ceiling and descended from the sky, landing in front of Xiaodi, Bisky, and the others. It turned out to be a young lady with fair skin, a good figure, and a melancholy expression, wearing a red headband.

As soon as the melancholy young lady landed, she spoke to herself, "It probably won't matter if I tell you... It's said that somewhere in this sea area, there's an underwater cave known as the abode of the sea god, and the entrance to it is called 'One Ping of Coastline'... A few years ago, Leizha and fourteen demons heard this rumor, so they came to this town and ruled it ever since. They tortured many people to death, including my father and brother, all for the sake of obtaining the location of 'One Ping of Coastline'..."

While she was speaking, Jingyang and Xiaodi were also talking and trying to interrupt, but she acted as if she hadn't heard them at all, finished reciting her lines without paying any attention, nodded to them, and then turned and walked deeper into the stadium.

The moment she turned around, it was as if a mirrored barrier in front of Jing Yang and the others suddenly shattered, and a noisy and lively sound of sports filled their ears. Several young men wearing pointed hats appeared out of thin air in various parts of the stadium, and directly opposite them, a tall man with spiky hair and wearing a short-sleeved and shorts tracksuit was squinting at them from a distance.

It really is an overlapping alternate dimension... Bisky looked around.

"We finally meet again, Leizha!" Jingyang said.

He squinted and said, "Oh? Have we met before?"

Jing Yang snorted, "If you're so capable, why don't you use the Pyro to fly us away again this time?"

Lei Zha said, "That won't do. Even the game's administrators have to follow the game's rules. — Since you've found this place, let's get straight to the point and start the competition."

Chapter 256 Yes, we were supposed to play dodgeball.

"The rules of the competition are simple: each side will send 15 players, and each player counts as one win. The first team to reach 8 wins will be the winner. We'll decide the specific format of the competition. If you win, you'll get the 'One Ping of Coastline' card. How about it?"

In the brightly lit stadium, as Lei Zha spoke, the pointed hats that were originally exercising and working out in various parts of the venue gradually gathered around.

Jing Yang glanced around. The people he had previously manipulated to lead the way were now dead, and several new faces seemed to have appeared. He wondered if Lei Zha had just brought in death row inmates from some prison.

“If there are no objections, that’s fine,” Leiza continued. “The competition will be conducted as a sport. Our members will compete against you in the sports they are good at.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a little blue hat in the crowd of pointed hats behind him stepped forward and said, "I'll be the first one, let's have a boxing match."

His hands were wrapped in bandages, clearly indicating that he originally loved boxing.

The boy in the blue hat pointed to the boxing ring in the corner of the venue and asked Jingyang and the others, "Who will be my opponent?"

Leiza added at the opportune moment: "Let me state in advance that each person can only play once, so the same person cannot win multiple games."

This is to prevent both sides from sending out only their strongest member to win 8 consecutive games. What are the others doing here? Are they just there to ride on the coattails of others? If you're going to ride on someone, you should ride on at least 8 strong players. It's not very effective to just stick to one.

Jingyi shouted from the crowd, "I'll do it!"

Bisky looked up and saw a figure leap out and jump onto the boxing ring in a few quick movements.

"Can he do it?" Bisky asked quietly.

She could, of course, see that from "Jing Yi" to "Jing Shisan," they were all completely controlled by Jing Yang. It could be said that these 13 people were Jing Yang's 13 clones. However, since they were just clones picked up from the roadside, their quality varied greatly. No matter how skillful Jing Yang was, if the bodies he controlled were too weak, he couldn't make something out of nothing.

“It should be fine,” Jing Yang said, as he and the others gathered around the boxing ring, where Little Blue Hat and “Jing Yi” were already facing off.

"Ah." Xiao Di exclaimed in surprise. The arena was quite high, and by lowering her eyes slightly, she could see the dense black runes on the arena floor, woven into strange patterns.

Bisky whispered, "This is the word 'God.' It seems that Nen abilities are not prohibited in the competition."

“That’s right.” Leiza turned his head and looked over, smiling. “In all competitions, as long as the rules are not directly violated, Nen abilities are not prohibited, nor is the use of items created with Nen abilities prohibited.”

Bisky gave him a harmless smile.

The match on the stage is about to begin.

"Are you ready?" Jingyi asked the other person, while biting the strap with his teeth and putting on his boxing gloves.

“I’ll return the favor.” The little blue-hatted man clattered his fists together with his boxing gloves. “Bring it on, rookie.” He could tell from his opponent’s stance that the other had never even touched a boxer.

"I've never boxed, but I do have a little bit of experience in ring fighting."

"That's what the owner of the Sky Arena said as he went to greet them."

There was no suspense; "Jingyi" won.

With Xingbiao's meticulous and complete control over the body, the added self-healing ability, and Jingyang's rich experience of fighting his way up from the bottom of the Sky Arena to the position of the Lord... if he still can't deal with a weakling who needs to rely on setting up divine characters to assist his Nen ability, then that would be too absurd.

Although the number of recitations of "Jingyi" was not large, the conclusion remains the same.

Jingyi, clutching her almost shattered shoulder bone, walked to the edge of the field and sat down against the wall. This minor injury would heal in the time it takes to catch her breath.

“You have one win,” Lei Zha said to Jing Yang and the others. “Then, let’s move on to the second match.”

"Let's have a basketball game." A little man in a black hat walked up from behind him, holding a basketball in his hand, and grinned. "Let's have a 1v1 one-on-1 game, 10 balls."

Jing Yang and the others looked at each other. Among the remaining 12 clones, he picked a muscular man who looked as strong as a chimpanzee, named "Jing San," and said, "You're the one."

"Jing San" stood out from the crowd.

"You go first." The guy in the black hat tossed the basketball over. "With muscles that heavy, your coordination must be terrible, right?"

Jing San caught the ball with one hand, spun it twice, looked at the five-pointed star logo on the ball, and smiled slightly, saying, "Are you unhappy with your life? Just wait until it's 10-0."

The man in the black hat lowered his center of gravity, spread his arms, and assumed a defensive stance. He laughed and said, "Don't be so insecure. You can always score a point. How about I be kind and let you have two points?"

Jing San didn't waste any more breath on him and just pulled out a shot right there.

"Such an ugly, messy form, there's no way it could go in." The man in the black hat said speechlessly, hands on his hips. But when he turned around, his eyes widened – the basketball was clearly going for an airball, but as it flew over, it strangely floated up a bit, and everyone watched as the basketball swished through the net with an unscientific trajectory, scoring a goal.

"Did they control the ball?" Leizha wondered.

"Why are you staring at me with such wide eyes? Didn't I say that the use of Nen abilities is not prohibited?" Jing San said confidently.

Stars have always been capable of manipulating objects. When Jingyang first activated them, he used his hair to subdue a wolf. However, compared to humans and animals that can move, inanimate objects are dead, making them very energy-intensive to manipulate. Moreover, the larger the object, the more energy is consumed per second. But manipulating a basketball's trajectory slightly off course at a crucial moment is still a piece of cake.

Thus, the outcome of the match was no longer in doubt. "Jing San" secured his second victory.

The third competition: weightlifting.

A short, stocky man wearing a yellow pointed hat stepped out from the crowd and chuckled, "The big guy who won the basketball game can't play anymore."

Jingyang nodded and said, "I was careless."

Bisky asked, "Shall I do it?"

“If Auntie Bi uses her true strength, she can definitely kill them both with one hand each…” Jing Yang said, receiving a small punch to the cheek. He lowered his voice, “Judging from Lei Zha’s calm demeanor, this guy will definitely step in to cover for us. Auntie Bi, you are our ace, we can’t use you now.”

"Hmph. Are we going to give up this time? None of your remaining men can lift weights as well as the other side."

"Have you made up your minds yet?" The short, stocky guy in the yellow hat was already standing in front of the barbell, urging Jing Yang and his group who were muttering to themselves.

Jingyang gestured to Bisiji to calm down, and then Xiaodi noticed that Wu Er, who had been lingering at the back of the crowd, came forward. Everyone on the other side, except for Leizha, was stunned.

“That’s it.” Jingyang pointed at Wu Er.

A pale white tiger emerged proudly and walked calmly toward the barbell area—thank goodness, the short, strong weightlifters, by virtue of the pointed tips of their little yellow hats, were only slightly taller than this big tiger with its four legs on the ground!

The short, stocky man in the yellow hat blushed: "How can an old tiger be counted!"

Wu Er walked to the barbell, stood up, and a large shadow fell over him. Wu Er used his two front legs to pull the barbell a couple of times, changed positions a few times, nodded towards Jing Yang, and then turned his head to stare questioningly at the short, stocky man in the yellow hat, which startled the latter so much that his legs almost buckled and he sat down on the ground.

"How can this be done!"

"Can Tiger still compete?"

That was a foul!

"Let me say something fair: the other side has broken the rules, just declare them the loser and get out of here!"

The pointed hats behind Leizha caused a stir.

"Quiet," Lei Zha said calmly. "Since this Miserable Moon Tiger has a game ring, it is one of the players and therefore qualified to participate. Alright, if both sides are ready, let's begin."

Thus, the third weightlifting competition began.

So the third weightlifting competition ended quickly. When the short, stocky little yellow-hatted dog finally couldn't lift the 1-ton barbell, Wu Er next to it lifted the 5-ton barbell with a very human-like air. After Lei Zha announced its victory, it even gently put the 5-ton barbell on the ground, then let out a triumphant roar, and the short, stocky little yellow-hatted dog next to it immediately fainted.

"The next match is the fourth one." Leizha didn't take it seriously at all.

Bisky glanced at him. He'd already lost three games in a row, yet he still maintained that unhurried demeanor…

The fourth match was arm wrestling.

"Jing Shisan" stepped onto the stage, leaving a star mark on his palm, and took down the blue-hatted, chubby guy.

After reading it carefully, Xiao Di turned to look at Jing Yang.

Jingyang couldn't help but chuckle; this was the same trick he used when he arm-wrestled with Xiaodi.

The fifth event is the vault.

The slender "Jing Qi" made its appearance. Relying on the self-control of the star mark and without any risk of injury, "Jing Qi" could handle any difficult technical move. There was even Jing Yang himself remotely adjusting the posture from the side... It won its 5th victory without any suspense.

The sixth event was the high jump.

Jing Jiu, despite his legs being completely worn out, frantically pushed his leg and lower body strength to their limits, leaping up with a loud "boom," nearly nailing his head into the stadium ceiling... Little Red Riding Hood, who was competing next to Lei Zha Fang, was dumbfounded and immediately forfeited. What's the point of competing? This guy's a madman!
