Lu Ran was much happier with his latest victory, while the Stellar Moon audience felt not only crushed, but also indignant. Bai Lu really got their hopes up and made them believe that there was a real chance for them to finally be rid of Lu Ran. Bai Lu was also breathtakingly beautiful, so her fans were much more passionate than those of the previous contestants.
Unfortunately, she still ultimately suffered defeat at Lu Ran’s hands. Getting torn back down after just getting lifted up into the clouds was particularly devastating. Although most people didn’t blame Bai Lu since she obviously put in a good effort.
The crowd was starting to hate Lu Ran more and more. He started out on the side of righteousness by standing up for mankind against the God of War. The problem was that most people were unable to reach the Legendary rank even without being sanctioned. It was as if the average person was told that billionaires were getting a tax hike. It was a problem they would never have to deal with.
On the other hand, if Lu Ran carried the Blue Planet team to victory, it would cause tangible and direct damages to every beastmaster in Stellar Moon World. This made the spectators increasingly upset.
"Damn it, I refuse to accept this. Is there really no one who can knock him down a peg?"
"Can someone just beat him already? Can Mechanical Leader please go up and nuke him with the forbidden weapon?"
"Why is Ice Emperor so far in the back? He should be strong enough to instakill that guy."
"I can't hold it in anymore. I'm so pissed off right now. Being the defender sucks. If only Ice Emperor were up first. If he were, even all ten beastmasters from Blue Planet wouldn’t be enough to get past the first checkpoint."
The Stellar Moon audience was starting to get rambunctious. Despite their enthusiasm, there was nothing they could really do about Lu Ran.
—It looks like the public image you built up for yourself is starting to crumble.
