Cosmic Professional Gladiator Novel - Chapter 618

618 Judgment (Part 2) (2)
“Time’s up.”

The presiding judge finally looked at Xu Jingming. “Defendant, please take the stand.”

Xu Jingming got up. Although he restrained the terrifying dark fluctuations his mind and consciousness naturally emitted, it still made the surrounding people feel pressured.

Xu Jingming calmly took a few steps forward.

“Defendant,” the presiding judge said, “please state your case.”

!!
Xu Jingming glanced at Lunarstar and the others in the distance and smiled, but his smile made many people’s hearts tremble.

As the imitation method deepened, he went further down the Heart Realm Force path. Xu Jingming’s eyes had terrifying offensive power, and his expression had the ability to affect people’s hearts. When they saw Xu Jingming, it was as if they saw a terrifying existence in the darkness.

“It’s very simple,” Xu Jingming said with a smile. “The Void Celestial’s cosmic legend, Tutenmu, ambushed me and corrupted me.”

“The only way after being corrupted is to comprehend the corruptive high-dimensional powers,” Xu Jingming said. “In order to better comprehend them, I have been sorting out my karma. Otherwise, my comprehension efficiency will be very low due to the entanglement of karma.”

Many bystanders came to a realization. Sorting out karma?

Karma entanglement affects one’s mind and comprehension?

Sorting out karma probably helps the evolutionary path. Many watching Origin lifeforms pricked up their ears and listened carefully, drawing on his evolutionary experience.

After all, the person standing there was the most dazzling peerless genius of the era. He naturally had his reasons.

In fact, most Origin lifeforms didn’t realize the importance of sorting out karma. Before Xu Jingming was corrupted, he didn’t think that it was that important. Only powerful high-dimensional lifeforms would gradually value karma.

“To sort out karma, I have to repay kindness with kindness and exact vengeance on my enemies,” Xu Jingming said. “On the one hand, I killed Lunardo to end that karma so that my mind wouldn’t be affected by it and allow my evolutionary path to be smoother. On the other hand, it’s also because he’s guilty and deserves death!”

The presiding judge looked to the other side. “Representative of the Primestar civilization’s royal family, what do you have to say?”

Lunarstar got up.

“Your Majesty Lunarstar.” The presiding judge nodded slightly.

“Wu Ming killed a member of the royal family purely out of a personal grudge,” Lunarstar said. “He might kill someone else because of another personal grudge of his.”

“If Lunardo hadn’t committed a heinous crime, I wouldn’t have killed him,” Xu Jingming said, his eyes calm. “Even if karma entanglements plague my cultivation, I wouldn’t bother killing an innocent person.”

He used spearmanship to temper his mind, but it was essentially a form of mental training.

He pursued the Heart Realm Force path, so everything he did had to be in line with his heart. Of course, his current ‘heart’ was corrupted and warped. It was more inclined to Master of the Abyssal Void’s style of doing things.

He killed those who deserved it.

He would rather be plagued by karma than kill those he shouldn’t.

“You make it sound all rosy.” Lunarstar’s eyes were cold. “You publicly killed my brother and even threatened me. You will kill me as well if I don’t satisfy you.”

“If you don’t repent and continue to condone your trusted aides’ wanton evil, I’ll definitely kill you by publicly executing you,” Xu Jingming said to Lunarstar as he stood in the courtroom.
Whoosh!

The entire venue was in an uproar.

“Wu Ming!” Lunarstar pointed at Xu Jingming angrily. “How dare you threaten the emperor of an advanced civilization here in the Cosmic Human Alliance’s Supreme Court? You even talk about executing me. You’re challenging the dignity of the royal family of an advanced civilization and the Primordial Research Institute’s dean!”

“Xu Jingming, how dare you!”

“Who do you think you are to publicly execute the emperor?”

“This is a provocation to the dean!”

Many royal representatives cursed angrily. The three Paramounts were the royal family’s sore point. Anyone who dared to be disrespectful to the Paramounts would be targeted by the three royal families.

“Silence.” The presiding judge frowned.

When the entire hall fell silent, he looked at Xu Jingming. “Defendant, are you threatening the emperor of an advanced civilization?”

“This isn’t a threat; it’s a piece of advice,” Xu Jingming replied. “The Dean, Eternal Academy Tower Master, and Island Lord of Spacetime Island descended at the same time to save me. I owe them a huge favor, so it’s impossible for me to slight them. I only have respect and gratitude for the three Paramounts.”

Everyone present had mixed emotions as they listened. The three Paramounts descended at the same time just to save Wu Ming?

Many members of the royal family and Origin lifeforms had never seen a Paramount in their lives.

“I fully respect the three Paramounts. They have put in endless effort for the human race.” Xu Jingming looked at Lunarstar coldly. “But there are some vermin who rely on their authority to commit evil wantonly. They are wasting the efforts of the three Paramounts. It’s the same for Lunardo. Lunarstar dotes on his trusted aides and allows his brother to commit evil. It’s also a waste of the three Paramounts’ efforts!”

Lunarstar frowned and explained, “I only found out about my brother’s actions after reading the investigation team’s report. I didn’t know much about it in the past.”

“You don’t even know how unscrupulous your brother is? Then, you’re incompetent,” Xu Jingming commented. “The emperor of an advanced civilization has a noble status, but he also shoulders endless responsibilities. If you’re incompetent or you deliberately indulge and bring calamity to countless people, you’re not worthy of being emperor.”

“This is a piece of advice. There won’t be any talking next time,” Xu Jingming said calmly. “Of course, the so-called public execution is only a small punishment. This is because you can be revived even if you die.”

Lunarstar was stunned.

“It’s not easy to be emperor of an advanced civilization. If you don’t have the ability, don’t be one.” Xu Jingming snorted and couldn’t be bothered to say anything else.
