I'm not just human!

"Here's a piece of advice: after this Super Fighting Grand Prix, you'd better run away as soon as possible, or you'll be in for a world of trouble."

Rusconsin's gaze sharpened, and he said in a deep voice:

"why?"

Tefaro shook his head and sighed softly:

"It seems you really don't know just how serious this critical loss of control is. Let me put it this way: this is a forbidden secret technique that has been jointly prohibited by the nine righteous gods. Any extraordinary person who dares to master it in private will eventually be caught and sent to the Inquisition!"

Inquisition...

Ruscond's pupils dilated noticeably for a moment, but he seemed unwilling to see himself lose his composure, and quickly regained his domineering and indifferent expression:

"Okay, thank you."

Tefalo, however, became somewhat curious:

"You're not from the earthly realm of the Nine Great Gods, are you? By the way, how did you master this forbidden secret technique?"

Seeing that Tefalofi had not only spared him but also kindly reminded him, Ruscondro said directly:

"About a month ago, I went to the Extraordinary Market outside Rum City to buy some things. As I passed by a small island, I saw... a snow demon in a very strange state."

Xia Fa, who was eavesdropping on the two's conversation, suddenly narrowed his eyes.

Because Tefal transformed the star bubble into a state that completely blocked all vision and even allowed for anti-divination and anti-peeping, the two were able to converse so openly. In any case, the audience would probably only think that they were fighting fiercely inside the star bubble.

But Xia Fa could hear it because he also mastered the primordial secret technique of Star Bubble.

Now, Xia Fa suddenly realized that he... seemed to have overheard something incredible.

Or perhaps, it's intelligence that's crucial only to him!

Almost a month ago...

Out at sea outside Rum City...

The snow demon in a strange state...

From within the starry bubble, Rusconsin continued without any attempt to conceal his words:

"You should have heard of the strange creatures called Snow Demons. Normally, they are only at the wolf level at most, but that Snow Demon... reached the elephant level!"

Tefal's eyes lit up; he too had become interested.

"Could this be the legendary bizarre second loss of control? This is extremely rare and of great research value."

Rusconsin nodded slightly:

"That was my guess at the time, so I casually devoured this snow demon to see if I could absorb any particularly powerful extraordinary talent. As a result, I mastered this... um... this forbidden secret technique."

After a slight pause, He sighed:

"Actually, if you hadn't brought it up, I wouldn't have known that this forbidden secret technique is called Critical Loss of Control. In fact, I didn't even know before that it was a forbidden secret technique prohibited by the nine righteous gods. I thought I was just lucky to have mastered an extremely dangerous but also extremely powerful divine combat technique..."

Unexpectedly, Tefaro chuckled softly:

"Is that so? If what you're saying is true, then once you're caught and taken to the inquisition of any of the nine major churches, just tell the truth. After all, you acquired it by accident, not by deliberately learning it from someone. At most, you'll have to sign a mental contract promising not to use this forbidden secret art again, and then you should be able to live."

As he spoke, a meaningful smile appeared on Tefaro's face:

"After all, even if you master it this way, you can't pass it on to outsiders."

Upon hearing this, Rusconsin looked thoughtful for a long while before nodding.

"Okay, I understand, thank you."

On the deck of the pirate ship, Xia Fa appeared to be lying comfortably in a mechanical massage chair, enjoying a massage, but in reality, he was deep in thought.

"No wonder, every time Ruscond uses Critical Loss of Control, his long black spiky hair turns into the color of a snow demon's hair..."

Based on this, Xiafa can be almost certain that Ruscond is not lying.

But because of this, a rather alarming conjecture surfaced in his mind.

"Could it be... that the Crimson Executor is also subject to the forbidden technique of near-loss of control?"

"Is it precisely by reverse-analyzing this forbidden secret technique that He was able to keep the snow demons from going out of control twice?"

"What exactly does He want to do?"

Xia Fa's heart grew heavier as he thought about it. The boost that being out of control would give to a transcendent monarch was no less than signing another hegemon-level secret contract or mastering a divine battle technique.

In this situation, my assessment of the Crimson Agent's strength would probably have to be completely overturned.

"I wonder if Marshal Gaius and his cousin Hercules will reach the point of losing control..."

Xia Fa thought this, but shook his head slightly, knowing that the two of them were most likely not.

The reason is simple: even among the top geniuses from the earthly divine kingdoms of the nine great gods—the one-act actor, the painter, Casimir, Tefaro, and the Laughing Clown—only two out of these five have mastered the critical loss of control!

Moreover, the Laughing Clown only mastered the skill by chance because Emperor Sharatu used the Bloodline Healing on Him, and his mastery is not yet complete.

As for Ruskonjo... needless to say.

If anyone else wants to replicate Ruscond's path, they first need to be able to sign the Primal Stomach, a supreme-level contract, which is already an improbable probability.

But then, they had to find another snow demon that had gone out of control twice and devour it.

Even if you find it and devour it, you might not be able to successfully absorb this forbidden secret technique.

Absorption itself has a success rate, not to mention that the Snow Demon has at least a dozen extraordinary talents, which are not so easy to absorb.

Based on all these speculations, Marshal Gaius and his cousin Hercules probably didn't even know about the forbidden secret technique of critical loss of control, let alone master it.

If we had to draw an analogy, Marshal Gaius and his cousin Hercules would be like small business owners who are not highly educated but have achieved considerable success in society, while top geniuses like Terfalor and the Laughing Clown, who came from the earthly kingdom of gods, would be like top students from prestigious universities.

Although the latter is relatively weak for the time being, its future is undoubtedly very promising.

"By the way, how did Tefaro learn it?"

Xia Fa felt that of the three who were on the verge of losing control, Tefalo had the biggest problem... No wonder He was so cautious.

Boo!

Suddenly, a sound like a bubble bursting rang out from the metal arena.

Outside the golden barrier, the eyes of the audience drawn from all over the universe were immediately focused on it.

Everyone is so curious about what happened inside the star bubble, especially who won?

Sunlight streamed through the golden barrier, illuminating the metal arena.

Ruscondo lay on the ground, his body covered in knife wounds, seemingly unable to fight any longer.

Tefaro stood in the sky, holding the scabbard of his scimitar in one hand, looking down at Rusconsin with a cold gaze.

Although Xia Fa knew the two were acting together, he couldn't help but think to himself that they were really good at it.

Those who didn't know better would think they had actually fought a life-or-death battle.

The viewers, unaware of the truth, erupted in a complete frenzy after a brief moment of shock!

"Tefaro actually won?"

"Haha, I knew I hadn't chosen the wrong person to support! Tefaro is indeed strong!"

"How did He deal with Rusconsin when his entire body was black? Rusconsin in that state was incredibly terrifying."

"Who cares, as long as Tefaro wins."

"Wow, this is going to be exciting! The final is Tefalo vs. Caesar. Whoever wins will go down in history!"

"Yes, and the winner can even peruse the Golden Beacon Scroll... I'm so envious."

"Go, go, Tefero! Go, go, go, Caesar!"

Some viewers were quite surprised by the result, while others thought it was perfectly normal.

After all, among the top angel-level overlords present, if we're talking about whose overlord-level secret contract and divine battle tactics are best matched, aside from the Laughing Clown, it would be Tefaro.

Moreover, Tefaro seems to be a perfect counter to opponents like Rusconsin who prefer close-quarters combat.

Among the many spectators, only the three extraordinary monarchs, including Saint Emperor Sharatu, looked at each other and, recalling how Tefaro had deliberately darkened the star bubble to block out all prying eyes, couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression.

“Osius, I remember, Tefal was practically a student of your student, wasn’t he? You…”

Pope Hercules spoke meaningfully, whether he was joking or questioning his old friend was unclear.

Emperor Shalatu then interrupted:

“We all know Osius’s character. Without the permission of Lord Silver Universe, he is the least likely of the three of us to privately teach other young people how to be on the verge of losing control.”

Patriarch Osius suddenly raised his head, looking puzzled, and said:

"What do you two mean? You're making it sound like you're absolutely certain that one of my students' students has stolen the knowledge to the point of near-out-of-control. You two old fogies, can you produce any evidence?"

Emperor Shalatu: ...

Pope Hercules: ...

The two suddenly forgot that when it came to protecting their own, Patriarch Osius was second only to Emperor Sharatul himself...

Most importantly, Tefal was indeed cautious enough this time, conducting everything in the dark star bubble and even sprinkling extra gold dust.

To be honest, I don't seem to have any evidence to offer.

It's impossible to capture a top-tier angelic overlord from an earthly divine realm and torture him in the Inquisition...

"By the way, who do you think will win the finals?"

Pope Hercules suddenly asked a question, looking very interested.

As the Pope of the Absolute Church, He, like the other members of the Absolute Church, was a war fanatic.

In fact, the most devoted, worshipful, and reverent believers in the true god of "Absolute Defense" throughout the entire universe are the war fanatics.

After all, in the eyes of the war fanatics, the two righteous gods, [Nature Monarch] and [Supreme Law], combined couldn't defeat a single Great Old One, yet [Absolute Defense] could single-handedly hunt down and annihilate five of them.

Such a record is practically godlike in the eyes of war fanatics!

Of course, [Absolute Defense] is originally a god.

Therefore, when it comes to the question of who will win the finals, Pope Hercules, the battle maniac, is naturally quite interested.

As for before... in the eyes of the three extraordinary monarchs, only the champion was worthy of their attention.

Emperor Sharatul shook his head:
