697, That day, humanity recalled the terror of being dominated by the Titans_1

"Right, they always come up with some strange stuff over there, and they keep it so secret that nobody knows about it. One day, I'm going to go to Soul City and see for myself what they're really up to."

"As long as we ascend in the competition, the truth will reveal itself when the time comes,"

Tang San told his teammates.

Just then, a subtle change occurred in the atmosphere of the arena.

Everyone looked up at the sky to find the once clear sky now shrouded in a layer of white fog, churning tumultuously as a gigantic hand suddenly reached down!

This sight scared the wits out of everyone; many were so petrified that they stood frozen in place, unable to react.

A giant hand stretching down from the sky—what could it be, if not the hand of a god?!

Soul City.

Bi Ji squatted on the ground, boredly waving her hand inside a box. Her palm was not particularly large compared to the box, but compared to the "little people" inside, it was so big that it could induce a sense of fear of gigantic objects!

Bi Ji continued to stir randomly inside the box. To her, it was simply amusing to move the layer of white fog on the surface with her hand, but the others watched the scene on the big screen in stunned silence. They saw the competition area filled with a terrified, fleeing crowd, some even believing that the giant hand was out to grab them, and her hand's movements coincidentally matched the direction in which they were running.

Gu Yuena was stunned. Playing with a reward like this truly seemed fun!

"Wait, switch the scene, try replacing this competition area with Tiandou City,"

Gu Yuena said to Bi Ji.

Bi Ji removed her hand from the box, and the Soul Master Students and spectators in the competition area breathed a sigh of relief as the terrifying hand vanished.

Squatting beside the box, Bi Ji controlled the scene that was about to appear inside it with her mind. Moments later, she opened her eyes and swept her hand over the box with a magician's gesture.

A thin white fog scattered, and the scene inside the box updated.

Gu Yuena leaned over to take a look and saw that the objects inside the box had become much smaller, many times smaller than before, to the extent that even the houses were too tiny to be seen clearly.

Just now, it was only a competition area inside, but now it was the entirety of Tiandou City.

"Now put your hand back in there and see,"

Gu Yuena said, revealing a rare smile to Bi Ji.

Bi Ji did as told, slowly extending her hand into the white fog below.

Lin Yi, watching this scene, couldn't help but think of a line from a famous anime.

"That day, humanity remembered the fear of being dominated by great beings."

In the Tian Dou Competition Area, before everyone could even catch their breath, they felt the air vibrate and the ground buzz ominously.

Everyone looked up to the sky only to see another gigantic hand extending from the clouds in the distance!

But clearly, this hand was on a completely different scale than the previous hand—it was far larger!

"What's going on?! Was the one before just a child, and the one now an adult?"

"What grown-ups! If what just happened involved a child, this is now a giant!"

The crowd in the arena once again descended into chaos, and at that moment, someone noticed that the giant hand was moving towards them!

The hand moved so quickly that escape was out of the question, and suddenly, someone shouted, "Get down!"

For the first time, the spectators and students in the arena obeyed an order issued by an unknown voice in such unison.

The hand swiftly moved over, and the entire competition venue vibrated with a thunderous roar, buildings shook continuously, and a blast of air kicked up clouds of dust and chunks of brick, even lifting a few people into the air.

Bi Ji had no idea that a casual gesture of hers had caused such an uproar, after all, she was facing away from the big screen at the moment, but everyone else watching the screen saw everything very clearly.

Gu Yuena watched these humans as if they were ants at the mercy of others, and taking amusement in it, she took Bi Ji's hand out of the box on her own initiative.

Because of this movement, the airflow spiraled upward, sucking many people from the competition site into the sky before they plummeted back down.

Now everyone was truly stunned, yet each person was on high alert, as two giant hands had appeared out of nowhere without any warning.

Gu Yuena continued, "Now, imagine a scene of the Tiandou Empire appearing in the box!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Xueye panicked instantly. He hurried forward and said, "Predecessors, please be careful this time! A single wave of your hand could peel off a layer of my entire kingdom!"

Bi Ji looked at him and obediently nodded, "Alright, I'll be careful."

The scene inside the box updated again, and at a glance, all one could see was an expanse of greenery too vast for human eyes to clearly discern any houses or people.

For some reason, Gu Yuena felt excited. She encouraged Bi Ji, "Come on, reach out."

This time, Bi Ji was clearly much more cautious. Truth be told, she could feel that the resistance she experienced this time was different; the resistance during the second attempt was far greater than the first, and it was entirely brought on by the air.

This third time, Bi Ji had just reached her hand in when she frowned, as if she had put her hand into water; though the size of her hand had not changed, it felt unusually heavy.

Because the box held an image of the entire Tiandou Empire, and Tiandou City was at its heart, with the competition area at the center of Tiandou City, the place where Bi Ji extended her hand was right above the competition venue!

The Soul Master students and spectators, their nerves already taut, heard another tremendous roar and looked up to see something as vast as the entire sky pressing down on them!

The surroundings dimmed, and the massive thing above was covered with grooves, looking like an intricate network of roads.

If they knew that these were in fact the ridges formed by fingerprints, they might have gone mad on the spot.

Yes, this third hand that appeared was so large that they couldn't even see with the naked eye that it was in fact a hand!

The hand slowly extended downward, and the powerful pressure forced the people in the competition area to be slammed to the ground as if a massive mountain was pressing down on them, rendering them unable to stand up.

Cracks appeared quickly on the surrounding buildings, and this was merely the damage caused by the gentle descent of the palm's pressure.

The people of Soul City, watching through the big screen, were left speechless by the scene.

Gu Yuena watched excitedly and then suddenly said, "What if we put the entire Soul Land into the box? What would happen then?"

Lin Yi, "When that time comes, the center of the box will be Soul City. The first to be affected will be Soul City itself. If you're curious, you can try it; after all, I'm here."
