Chapter 82 The Next One

Too arrogant!

The crowd burned with fury as they stared at the lone figure in the arena—sword in hand, daring to challenge the entire Royal Martial Arts Academy.

What right did some country bumpkin have to be so insolent?

Did he not know that today would be his death day?

Not only the people of the Royal Martial Arts Academy, but also the citizens of the imperial capital watching from all around were displeased by Jun Wushuang’s arrogance.

Azure Cloud Martial Arts Academy and Royal Martial Arts Academy.

Country bumpkins and nobility.

Divine Sea Realm and Heaven Man Realm.

Why should he be so cocky?

"Country bumpkin, you’re far too arrogant. Let me destroy you!"

A furious roar rang out, and a figure leaped into the air and landed before Jun Wushuang.

He was a tall, broad-shouldered young man, with a massive head, a height of nearly two meters, and a body packed with knotted muscle and explosive strength.

He reached out, took two battle axes from his storage ring, and swung them once with a whistling gale, his presence astonishing.

Second level of the Heaven Man Realm.

His cultivation was not especially high, but he possessed the Savage Strength King Body, granting him immense power and formidable combat strength.

"Country bumpkin, my name is Zhao Yongde. Zhao Qiming is my uncle. You dared publicly humiliate him and even forced him to be expelled. Today, I will avenge him."

"I’ll personally rip off your head and use it as a chamber pot, making you pay in blood for your arrogance."

"In today’s life-and-death duel, I alone can kill you."

Zhao Yongde’s voice boomed like thunder, his copper-rimmed eyes fixed on Jun Wushuang, flashes of cold light bursting forth, his killing intent intense.

Zhao Qiming’s nephew?

Jun Wushuang was slightly surprised.

But Zhao Qiming was already dead; what could his nephew do?

If he dared step onto the stage, then he would have to die.

"Brother Zhao is mighty! Hack him into mincemeat and leave him with nowhere to be buried!"

"Brother Zhao is too strong! Who could ever match him? Please, Brother Zhao, split this country bumpkin with one axe and restore the honor of our Royal Martial Arts Academy!"

"Go, Brother Zhao!"

As soon as Zhao Yongde appeared, cheers and cries of support rose from the Royal Martial Arts Academy.

He was also a Heaven-grade student. Though he was not among the Four Great Prodigies, he was still highly renowned.

This time, for the sake of avenging his uncle, he had volunteered for battle, determined to seize the first victory and kill Jun Wushuang.

"All show and no substance. Nothing but trash!"

Jun Wushuang shook his head and appraised him with cool disdain.

"How dare you say I’m all show and no substance? Today I will make sure you die without a complete corpse!"

Enraged, Zhao Yongde slammed his feet into the ground and shot forward like a cannonball.

"Kill!"

Though Zhao Yongde was huge, he was not slow. The whole of him crashed toward Jun Wushuang like a shell fired from a cannon.

"Innate divine ability: Tenfold Amplification!"

Zhao Yongde held nothing back. From the very start, he activated the Savage Strength King Body and unleashed his innate divine ability.

At once, the muscles in both his arms bulged, and his strength increased tenfold.

With the battle axes in his hands already treasure-grade weapons suited to power-based combat, his attack became all the more ferocious.

Crack!

The twin axes came hacking down from above, cleaving the air apart. White gusts howled as a shrill, piercing cry split the sky.

The terrifying might changed everyone’s expression. They only felt their breath catch, unable to resist.

Too strong!

Zhao Yongde’s strength was truly extraordinary.

He was like a human bear, able to suppress all and tear apart every formidable enemy.

"Ox Demon Great Strength Fist!"

Facing Zhao Yongde’s fierce assault, Jun Wushuang showed no fear.

He raised his left hand, clenched it into a fist, and struck straight out.

Boom!

With one punch, heaven and earth trembled.

The air before him was instantly blasted apart, the blow fast and savage.

From afar, that was not a fist at all, but an ancient ox-demon charging forward in a frenzy.

A body as towering as a mountain, eyes red as blood, and a demonic might steeped in madness and savagery.

Wherever it passed, mountains and rivers shattered, the cosmos crumbled, and nothing could withstand it.

The demonic liquid within Jun Wushuang’s dantian had already increased from three hundred drops to six hundred.

With his Devouring Demon Body also nearing minor completion, his physique had become formidable.

This punch contained eight hundred thousand jin of force, terrifying beyond compare.

Dong!

A deafening blast erupted, shaking the ears.

The violent airwaves exploded outward, sending everyone staggering.

Bang!

In the midst of their shock, Zhao Yongde was actually blown flying and crashed down dozens of meters away.

Jun Wushuang, meanwhile, stood motionless where he was, not having retreated even half a step.

"How is that possible?"

The crowd was aghast.

Zhao Yongde was a second-level Heaven Man Realm expert.

And he possessed the Savage Strength King Body, with tenfold amplification to his strength. Let alone someone in the Divine Sea Realm— even against a foe of the same level, he would have a tremendous advantage.

Yet Jun Wushuang was only at the sixth level of the Divine Sea Realm, and he had actually punched Zhao Yongde flying.

This... this was simply unbelievable!

"I was careless just now. I could not possibly lose to you. This time, I will definitely kill you!"

Zhao Yongde rose to his feet, roaring again and again.

He absolutely could not accept his defeat.

Boom!

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged wildly, gathering above Zhao Yongde’s head.

Experts of the Heaven Man Realm could not only soar through the skies and travel the earth, but also draw upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, multiplying their combat strength.

"Profound-rank advanced martial technique: Frenzied Wind Chaos-Sky Cleave!"

With a roar, Zhao Yongde drew in the spiritual energy within a radius of two hundred meters, gathering it upon his twin axes.

Whoosh!

He leaped into the air, gripping the battle axes in both hands as he spun them up and down like blazing wheels. Their speed made it impossible to distinguish their shape.

"Spiritual martial technique: War Roar!"

This time Zhao Yongde struck with full force. Not only did he summon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, he also unleashed a spiritual martial technique.

Violent spiritual power surged forth, earthshaking and heaven-rending, as though a great war had arrived. The furious roar shook the heavens, striking terror into the heart and stripping away all fighting spirit.

"Brother Zhao has truly enraged himself. That full-power strike is absolutely something that country bumpkin cannot block. This battle is about to end."

"Hmph, Brother Zhao is a Heaven Man Realm expert. He still dares provoke Brother Zhao? That’s like striking a stone with an egg."

"Come, let us witness this victory with our own eyes!"

Zhao Yongde’s overwhelming attack filled the students of the Royal Martial Arts Academy with confidence. One and all, they were certain victory was in hand.

Yet Jun Wushuang’s expression did not change.

He gripped the Asura Demon Blade, and the demonic liquid in his dantian burst open, transforming into surging torrents of demonic qi that poured into the blade.

The Purple Extreme Demon Eye activated, resisting Zhao Yongde’s spiritual attack while seeing all of his flaws at a glance.

"This blade will send you to hell!"

Swish!

Jun Wushuang swung his blade, a strike so shocking it seemed to make heaven tremble and ghosts weep.

"Asura One-Blade Slash!"

With one cut, a blood-red blade light tore through the heavens and surged upward against the natural order, striking straight at Zhao Yongde’s exposed flaw.

In that instant, a sea of blood and mountains of corpses appeared before Zhao Yongde’s eyes.

An Asura Demon God stepped forth through that sea of blood and corpses, cast him a cold glance, and casually slashed.

This blade could slay gods and annihilate demons, impossible to resist.

Zhao Yongde’s mind collapsed, and his will to fight vanished completely.

Pu chi!

A flash of blade light, a spray of blood.

Zhao Yongde’s head slid from his neck, his body and head severed.

Dong!

His corpse crashed heavily to the ground, blood splashing in every direction.

Jun Wushuang stood proudly with his blade in hand, his killing intent undiminished.

"Next!"
