This Character is Suspected of Cheating! [Unlimited Flow]

The King was an elderly man with graying hair and a face full of wrinkles, yet his eyes were incomparably sharp. When he looked at someone, it felt as though nothing could remain hidden.

At this moment, the aged and experienced ruler of the Federation wore a solemn expression, his gaze piercing.

“Who obtained it?”

Qiu Dao answered immediately, “Contestant No. 2333, He Yu of Blue Star.”

Confusion appeared on the King’s face. “Who is that? What planet?”

Qiu Dao replied, “A planet not yet part of the Federation Universe. Their technology is underdeveloped, they have no heroes, and their resources are scarce. We only contacted them this time because the talent show needed more participants.”

The disbelief on the King’s face deepened.

A contestant from such a trash planet had actually obtained a treasure of this level?

No matter what the Luck Reversal Bead’s exact effect was, the fact that it was a divine-grade treasure meant only one thing—

It had the potential to help create a god.

And such an item had fallen into the hands of a trash planet native?

Qiu Dao inhaled deeply again. “That trash planet contestant has extremely good luck, but his strength is terrible. The Luck Reversal Bead will probably change owners very soon. Wanrenzhan has already set his sights on him.”

“Wanrenzhan?” The King slowly sat back down, a mocking smile appearing at the corner of his lips. “He’s nothing more than lucky himself. Such a major incident happened last season. Hundreds of heroes died before they could mature. He just happened to survive by chance.”

Qiu Dao nodded. “Exactly. Wanrenzhan is nothing to fear. Now that the Luck Reversal Bead has appeared, no matter who ultimately obtains it, as long as it’s brought out of the talent show...”

The King smiled and nodded. “Correct. A treasure like that is best kept in the Federation’s hands.”

After pausing, he continued, “Aside from the Luck Reversal Bead placed inside by the late Que God, there are still two divine-grade treasures remaining within <Top-tier Talent Show>, correct?”

“Yes,” Qiu Dao answered softly. “There’s also the zither Li Zhan tempered inside the competition, as well as an unknown divine-grade treasure placed there during the very first season.”

“So many years. So many people sent inside. Yet only in this season have we finally gotten our first clue regarding one of the divine-grade treasures.” The King’s voice turned cold. “Keep a close watch on that lucky contestant. Keep a close watch on the Luck Reversal Bead.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Qiu Dao responded loudly.

As though remembering something, Qiu Dao hesitated.

“Your Majesty... what if someone uses the Luck Reversal Bead to obtain terrifying abilities inside the competition? After all, it’s a divine-grade treasure, not an ordinary Luck Reversal Bead.”

The King laughed.

“Qiu Dao, since you know it isn’t an ordinary Luck Reversal Bead, do you really think anyone would understand its correct method of use?”

His smile became meaningful.

“If that bead is used incorrectly, it becomes a death warrant.”

Qiu Dao froze.

Then he laughed as well.

Right.

—Used correctly, it was a divine-grade treasure.

Used incorrectly, it was... a death warrant.

—

He Yu was still reading.

Reading extremely seriously.

He lounged lazily atop the giant fish’s head, one long leg stretched out while the other remained bent. The <Basic Principles of Combat Power Development> book mocked endlessly by the livestream comments rested on top of his knee.

His glasses sat casually on the bridge of his nose, his gaze focused. His long, elegant fingers calmly flipped another page.

Beside him, strips of dried fish were laid out to dry. One end of the yarn was tied around the wrist of his right hand, which supported him from behind.

His head was slightly lowered, messy hair partially covering his brows and eyes. Beneath the sunlight, his dense eyelashes cast beautiful shadows whenever they moved.

This was a very beautiful man.

If the audience did not know this was inside <Top-tier Talent Show>, and if not for the giant fish beneath him, they might have suspected they had entered the wrong livestream.

Comments flooded by—

“It’s just a basic textbook. Does this trash planet native seriously think he can learn anything from it?”

“So boring. Switching streams.”

The comments in He Yu’s livestream became sparse. The occasional message that appeared complained about how dull it was.

This peaceful atmosphere was not what the audience wanted.

They wanted blood, violence, savage battles.

If Wanrenzhan’s group were not hunting He Yu, the Universe Federation audience would never have entered this livestream in the first place.

Zhang Yu’s roommate from the bunk opposite him was watching another livestream.

It belonged to a Blue Star contestant.

At this moment, that contestant had encountered Keli Hai, the man responsible for slaughtering countless contestants from unknown planets.

As expected, he was brutally killed.

Keli Hai did not even kill him with a single strike. He enjoyed torturing people.

And this livestream had no censorship.

The viewers watching it could practically see Keli Hai’s twisted face and the vivid blood right before their eyes.

“AH—!”

The roommate screamed.

Zhang Yu jumped in fright and immediately looked over. “What happened?!”

Pale-faced, his roommate held out the phone with trembling hands, voice shaking.

“Too terrifying... these monsters are too terrifying!”

On the screen, Keli Hai wiped the blood splattered across his face with one hand. He looked directly toward the viewers, smiling wildly and arrogantly—

“Low-class trash planet people all deserve to die.”

“Garbage. Why participate in a competition like this? You and your planet are both trash.”

As he spoke, the livestream comments were filled with mockery toward trash planet natives.

To these “Federation citizens,” Blue Star was a trash planet.

And Blue Star people, in the eyes of these proud “Federation citizens,” were not even considered human.

Zhang Yu’s face flushed red with anger, his eyes wide.

His roommate gritted his teeth. “That bastard is disgusting. According to online statistics, Keli Hai has already killed thirty-two Blue Star people in just two days!”

Zhang Yu clenched his fists. “I really hope someone from Blue Star can kill him someday and stomp these so-called superior people underfoot!”

His roommate took a deep breath to calm himself, switched off his phone, and asked—

“What about He Yu’s livestream? Is he still reading?”

He sat down beside Zhang Yu and continued, “Let’s just watch relaxed He Yu together. No matter how long this calm lasts, at least right now, I need his peaceful atmosphere to settle my nerves.”

Zhang Yu moved the computer to the center and nodded.

“Yeah. He’s still reading.”

The roommate looked at the screen and froze briefly before shaking his head.

“This guy’s fish-riding posture is getting more and more leisurely... he looks like Zhuang Zhou riding through life...”

Wasn’t he relaxed?

He had practically maintained the same posture for hours, reading the entire time.

He was already halfway through the textbook.

—

In the afternoon, He Yu ate one strip of dried fish.

Inside the <Top-tier Talent Show> competition grounds, likely for livestream convenience, contestants had no physiological sanitation needs. They did not require bathrooms.

However, basic food and water were still necessary.

After eating the dried fish, He Yu licked his lips.

—It was sea fish. Slightly salty.

He gathered the fish skins together and placed them between two fish strips, shaping them into crude “basins.” One after another, he made several.

Then he looked up at the sky.

The remaining Federation viewers were confused.

“What’s he doing?”

“What is that supposed to be?”

“I don’t understand...”

“Why’s he looking at the sky?”

...

Half an hour later, it rained.

The viewers instantly understood.

“This trash planet contestant doesn’t even have a weather detection system, yet he could still sense the weather?”

“No way? Only people from Mechanical Planet can detect weather without a sensing system. Could his planet be similar to Mechanical Planet?”

“They already said it’s a trash planet. How could it compare to Mechanical Planet? Don’t insult Mechanical Planet like that. There must be another reason.”

“Still, this trash planet guy is pretty smart. Look at the other livestreams—contestants without a Mechanical Planet teammate didn’t prepare at all.”

...

He Yu saw the comments.

He showed no reaction whatsoever.

Calmly, he used a small piece of reserved fish skin to wash his face and hair with rainwater, meticulously cleaning himself.

These self-proclaimed “higher citizens” truly were powerful.

They truly possessed many things Blue Star did not.

But their advanced technology and excessive dependence on it had also caused them to lose many basic abilities.

Their smart brains and sensing systems could tell them the weather precisely, accurate down to the second.

As a result, they had long since lost the ability to judge weather by observing clouds and feeling the wind.

After cleaning himself, He Yu tightly tied up the fish-skin pouches that had collected rainwater using yarn, turning them into spare water bags.

Just like the dried fish, they were tied around his wrist.

Meanwhile, behind the giant fish—

Wanrenzhan sounded irritated.

“It’s raining. How much longer until we catch him?”

Tang Ke’s eyes remained fixed ahead. Their special ability lay in their eyes, allowing them to use energy to see farther and more clearly.

“At our current speed of twenty nautical miles, we should catch up to the giant fish in about one hour,” Tang Ke answered.

Wanrenzhan immediately said, “Speed up. We’ll catch him while it’s raining!”

When it rained, giant fish disliked staying near the surface, and their “vision” was affected.

This was the perfect opportunity to eliminate both He Yu and the giant fish at once.

The raft instantly accelerated.

On the <Top-tier Talent Show> public chat plaza, someone posted—

[Wanrenzhan’s group is about to catch trash planet contestant 2333! Everyone hurry over and watch!]

As a result, huge numbers of viewers flooded back into He Yu’s livestream.

Of course He Yu knew Wanrenzhan and the others were pursuing him. The comments were overflowing with anticipation for a spectacle.

—At his current level, he could not defeat Wanrenzhan’s group.

This was a team capable of killing one giant fish and driving a second into a berserk state.

In a one-on-one fight, he could not beat even a single member of that group, much less all of them together.

And unfortunately—

The giant fish beneath him was also starting to behave abnormally.

It no longer wanted to remain at the surface.

The rain seemed to make it even more eager to dive underwater. The previous trick He Yu had used no longer worked. Instead, it only worsened the creature’s mood, causing its tail to violently slap against the sea surface.

“This trash planet guy is finished now.”

“Wanrenzhan really picked the perfect timing. The giant fish is disobedient, and his hunters are closing in aggressively. Hahaha.”

“Honestly, after putting on the Luck Reversal Bead, He Yu’s luck really has turned awful.”

“He had good luck before. Of course his luck would become terrible after wearing the Luck Reversal Bead.”

...

The comments buzzed with excitement.

He Yu raised an eyebrow slightly.

He had clearly felt his luck worsening as well.

Just moments ago, while the giant fish was thrashing irritably, the supposedly sturdy yarn had suddenly snapped, causing most of his stockpiled dried fish to fall into the sea.

Violent pursuers behind him. A giant fish growing uncontrollable.

Everything seemed to be sliding toward a dead end.

Yet He Yu’s expression remained astonishingly calm, giving no indication whatsoever that he was currently facing a crisis.

“PA—!”

The giant fish slapped its tail hard, plunged its head toward the sea, and began twisting its body.

Clearly, it no longer intended to remain at the surface.

He Yu’s body swayed violently. Barely maintaining his footing, he lowered his gaze slightly toward the Luck Reversal Bead.

The more dangerous the situation became, the calmer he grew.

And at this moment, he was considering a question—

Why had he become unlucky?

The livestream comments all believed his good luck had reversed into bad luck.

But He Yu himself knew that was not true.

From luring the giant fish forward, to provoking the giant fish battle, to seizing the equipment—

Every single step had been calculated in his mind beforehand.

None of it had relied on luck.

On the contrary, he felt that even if his luck was not outright terrible, it certainly was not good.

Then...

Why had the Luck Reversal Bead made him unlucky?

If it was not due to reversing luck itself, then the only remaining explanation was—

He was using it incorrectly?

—This bead had a special method of use?

He Yu rubbed the bead between his fingers. His eyes deepened, his expression thoughtful.

The livestream comments were already speechless—

“Wanrenzhan’s group will catch him in ten minutes at most, the giant fish is rebelling, and he’s standing there daydreaming at a time like this!!”

“This trash planet guy seriously has brain problems.”

“Heh. Trash planet natives are trash planet natives. Once luck disappears, they have nothing.”

“I can’t wait to watch Wanrenzhan smash this trash planet trash apart!”

“Hahaha, Wanrenzhan’s group has always suspected he’s some hidden expert. Imagine their expressions when they realize they can kill him with one hammer swing.”

“This trash planet guy’s livestream doesn’t deserve third-ring recommendation placement, much less the hottest spot he had before. He doesn’t deserve it. He should die!”

“Everyone just wait for his slaughter.”
