Chapter 214: Fair Judgment

On the spectator stands, a group of university students had grim expressions. Weren’t these guys here to save them? How could this happen? These damn awakened individuals…

Zhao Tiansheng smiled. The reason he didn’t directly kill these captive students and awakened individuals was for this purpose – to sow discord!

Currently, although there were quite a number of awakened individuals, they were still a minority compared to ordinary people.

This time, Zhao Tiansheng wanted to provoke conflict between awakened individuals and ordinary people. He wanted everyone to see through the live broadcast.

These so-called awakened individuals who could protect ordinary people, when faced with a life-or-death crisis, would unhesitatingly choose to save themselves and let ordinary people die.

Having lost two key players in succession, Zhao Tiansheng was extremely angry, hence he came up with this plan to retaliate against society!

And Zhao Tiansheng’s collaboration with the mutated beasts was also a last resort.

Before awakening, Zhao Tiansheng was the director of this sports arena and also a gold medal referee.

As a referee, Zhao Tiansheng was diligent and could not stand any shady dealings. In any event held at his sports arena, he ensured fairness and justice, and no one could make him compromise.

Although Zhao Tiansheng was the director, what he valued more was his identity as a referee. He took on the role of director to ensure that as a referee, he could guarantee the fairness of the matches as he pleased.

However, one day, spiritual energy revived, awakened individuals appeared, and then, the world changed.

Zhao Tiansheng saw those athletes he knew who had trained hard for years, their decades of sweat, being surpassed by a newly arrived awakened individual.

Those awakened individuals were just lucky, their movements were unprofessional and comical, yet they defeated those athletes who had trained for decades.

And Zhao Tiansheng, as a referee, could only judge the victory of that awakened individual based on the final result.

Later, Zhao Tiansheng proposed to the authorities that no awakened individual should participate in any sports competitions in the future. Before each match, a test with an awakening spirit sphere should be conducted to prevent cheating.

However, with the current crisis brought by the mutated beasts to all of humanity, it was crucial to enhance the strength of awakened individuals quickly to give humanity the ability to resist, which was the top priority.

Therefore, no one paid attention to Zhao Tiansheng’s proposal. In the face of humanity’s survival, what did the unfairness of the matches matter?

China had already decided not to organize any more sports competitions. All manpower and resources were to be focused on awakened individuals, developing their abilities to combat the mutated beasts!

In this situation, Zhao Tiansheng’s sports arena quickly fell into disuse. Now, there was even less talk of fairness or unfairness, as there were no more matches to be held.

This made Zhao Tiansheng very resentful. If it weren’t for the appearance of awakened individuals, how could sports competitions have lost all sense of fairness?

He was a referee, the director of a sports arena. Awakened individuals made his role as a referee useless, his role as a director meaningless.

Feeling his life had lost its meaning, Zhao Tiansheng chose to commit suicide. He wanted to hang himself in front of his sports arena gate, to denounce the unfairness of society.

Unfortunately, Zhao Tiansheng did not die. He hung on the rope all night, and early the next morning, he woke up again. He had awakened!

Zhao Tiansheng became the awakened individual he despised the most, and his ability was quite unique – it was called Fair Judgment!

Everyone, whether awakened individuals or mutated beasts, regardless of their class, would lose all their abilities in front of Zhao Tiansheng.

Under normal circumstances, Zhao Tiansheng’s ability could only make a target lose their abilities, turning both parties into ordinary people, and then engaging in a fair fight.

However, perhaps because Zhao Tiansheng was the director of this sports arena, or maybe the sports arena itself had awakened along with Zhao Tiansheng, forming a domain-like trait.

When Zhao Tiansheng was not present, this sports arena was ordinary and unremarkable.

But when Zhao Tiansheng was in the sports arena, every corner, every person, every mutated beast, inside and out, could not use any abilities.

At the same time, the sports arena itself was immune to all superpower attacks. It was a domain that prohibited the appearance of awakened individuals, turning any awakened individual into an ordinary person!

Moreover, this prohibition was not just aimed at elemental awakened individuals but also physical awakened individuals.

For example, the previous awakened individual with copper skin and iron bones, their abilities also became ineffective, with no exceptions.

As for the alienated awakened mutated beasts, within this sports arena, they would also revert to their original form, with their combat power returning to what it was before awakening.

Zhao Tiansheng’s ability was quite exaggerated, but he was just a director.

His sect only had a few dozen people in total, holding hundreds of university students hostage, along with dozens of awakened individuals who came to rescue them. His strength was insufficient.

Because even if these hundreds of university students all turned into ordinary people, what could they do?

Zhao Tiansheng himself was just an ordinary person in front of ordinary people. Those around him were also ordinary people. How could they possibly defeat so many university students?

Therefore, Zhao Tiansheng collaborated with the mutated beasts and brought over a group of powerful mutated beasts to assist.

Although these mutated beasts had now reverted to their original forms, they were ultimately lions, tigers, black bears, and the like, in considerable numbers, naturally able to suppress and intimidate these ordinary people.

Among these mutated beasts, there was a famous one, the mighty King Kong Ant.

The King Kong ant, an ant with outstanding talent, after awakening, stood two meters tall, five meters long, with enough strength to carry a train!

When Zhao Tiansheng invited the mutated beasts to assist, the impressive King Kong Ant insisted on participating. Zhao Tiansheng couldn’t refuse and brought it along.

Then, the magnificent King Kong Ant, in its original form, was now cowering inside the ear of a tiger, trembling in fear, afraid of being accidentally crushed to death.

It regretted its actions deeply, why did it have to show off? Why did it have to come over? It had to be careful, it must not be accidentally stepped on by a person or another mutated beast!

While Zhao Tiansheng continued the competition between ordinary people and awakened individuals, on the other side, that awakened individual left the sports arena and headed straight for the Awakening Academy.
