Although Andrew Han originally intended to cultivate quietly, the competition here was so fierce that no one could remain uninvolved—unless they revealed an absolutely invincible power.
Avoiding battle was not a problem in itself.
But when it could be settled in just a few effortless moves, why refuse?
“Truly weak.”
Andrew Han halted in the starry sky, calmly gazing at Jace Fu, the Fourth‑Order Cosmic Light genius.
Though this Pink‑Skin Human, Jace Fu, was rather weak, Andrew still showed him the basic respect owed to any opponent, in keeping with his deeply held virtues.
However—
Andrew sighed inwardly: “Someone this weak doesn’t even know their own limits? After living so long, it’s as if they’ve learned nothing.”
This was simply the truth—not contempt, and certainly not arrogance.
Compared to the Chenriver Empire, Earth was insignificant—whether in technology, culture, or cultivation progress, Earth could not compare to the empire at all.
Yet in one respect, Earth far surpassed Chenriver Palace.
Bloodshed... slaughter... life‑and‑death crises—Andrew Han had faced these deadly situations countless times.
He had killed Demons and Specters, bathed in blood and fought for his life—so when Andrew watched the so‑called sparring between cultivation geniuses, it all seemed weak and insubstantial, like a gentle breeze. Not to mention the others, even Jace Fu lacked any real blood‑soaked ferocity or desperate fighting spirit.
Of course, it didn’t really matter if they lacked these things.
The main issue was that Jace Fu’s starlight aura was simply too thin and lacking in force.
From ten thousand meters away, Andrew’s indifferent calm appeared to Jace Fu as silent refusal to fight, or perhaps hesitant retreat.
“Hm?”
Jace Fu’s eyes flickered as he narrowed his gaze.
“Did I misjudge him?”
“Geniuses of such caliber are usually proud and unyielding, never tolerating the slightest provocation—yet Andrew Han, an aboriginal, can remain so composed?” Disappointment flashed across Jace Fu’s face; his true intentions went beyond merely testing Andrew.
