"Sorry for disturbing your eternal rest!" Chu Hao lightly said, then suddenly charged forward, his fists dancing, unleashing the Mad Wind Fist.
Bang bang bang bang, the fist wind roared, a clump of white bones soared up into the air, these frightening skeletal remains had no combat power at all, crumbling immediately upon encountering even a slightly stronger punch.
"Just as I thought!" Chu Hao withdrew his fists, realizing these bones were merely a test of their courage and posed no real threat.
"I wonder if Tang Xin has caught on yet!" Chu Hao figured out the direction and headed towards the nearest bonfire. However, because he had run around to avoid the bones earlier, the bonfire he was heading towards was no longer the original one.
He strode forward, and although more skeletal remains crawled up to block his path, they were all shattered by his punches.
However, one thing he really couldn't understand, what power was making these bones rise again. Forget it, that could be investigated later; his priority now was to fill up ten chapters first.
A few minutes later, Chu Hao arrived at the first bonfire, where a teacher was waiting. Seeing him arrive, the teacher couldn't help but smile and said, "I've been waiting for a long time, finally the first person has arrived!"
Chu Hao also smiled, took out the previously distributed paper, and let the teacher stamp it, then immediately left.
Still nine stamps to go!
The following was smooth, after ten more minutes, Chu Hao had collected three stamps. He ran towards the fourth bonfire, and after a while, the moon suddenly peeked out from behind the clouds, scattering dim light. Chu Hao suddenly noticed, ahead, a person was running towards him.
The other party had clearly seen him too, and immediately halted, taking a defensive stance.
—This place allowed attacking each other to eliminate competitors. In the world of Martial Artists, it ultimately didn't stray from combat.
"Ma Long!"
"Chu Hao!"
The two almost simultaneously yelled out, true to the saying, enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road!
Chu Hao slightly smiled, saying, "How come it's just you alone today?"
This immediately touched Ma Long's sore spot, and he couldn't help but curse under his breath, "That bitch—"
At this utterance, Chu Hao knew, indeed Lin Yuqi had taken the initiative to leave Ma Long. Of course, the matter might not be so simple. Ma Jicheng was clearly dissatisfied with his prospective daughter-in-law. Thus, even if Lin Yuqi could marry into the Ma Family, it wasn't certain she would end up as Ma Long's official wife.
For a woman as ambitious as Lin Yuqi, how could she resign herself to being a concubine, reduced to a mere trophy? Hence, parting ways with Ma Long was logical, but as for clinging to Chi Dao's powerful leg... She might not be regarded highly there.
However, what was it to him?
"Chu Hao, all this is because of you!" Ma Long suddenly became frantic. If it wasn't for Chu Hao constantly meddling and humiliating him repeatedly, would Lin Yuqi disdain him? And his father wouldn't dislike Lin Yuqi either, ultimately forcing her to make the decision to leave.
He suddenly dampened his rage, smiled, and said, "I heard your Fortune Full Building was sealed? Hahaha, serves you right!"
Chu Hao scoffed, saying, "What are you so proud of? It's like you and Chi Dao are buddies! Eh, seems like someone was forced to crawl all over the place by that guy, right?"
"You—" Exposing the sore, Ma Long immediately went red-faced, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he looked at Chu Hao, "Chu Hao, do you know what trouble comes from the mouth is? Ha! Ha! Today, stumbling upon you here is heaven giving me the chance to have you die by my hands!"
It was so dark here, and people were so sparse, even if he murdered someone, it wouldn't be discovered right away! As long as he acted as if nothing happened afterward, even if suspected, so what! Moreover, this was outside the city, not governed by the City Lord's Mansion's laws. Even if it were discovered he did the killing, so what? The Chu Family had no experts capable of dealing with him!
—If everyone outside the city abided by the City Lord's Order, who would get killed?
The humiliations he had suffered from Chu Hao, today he would reclaim using Chu Hao's life!
Chu Hao shook his head, saying, "A month ago, you might have had a chance, but now—" he paused slightly, "Anyway, I've found you very displeasing, and I've been looking for a chance to completely deal with you!"
"Just with you?" Ma Long sneered; indeed he had suffered many defeats at Chu Hao's hands, but not once because he was less capable than Chu Hao!
Not even having entered the First Tier Lesser Mahayana realm, he could suppress Chu Hao with one hand!
"Ma Long, never underestimate others!" Chu Hao said smilingly, then waved his hand, "Forget it, you won't have a future anyway, just take the advice or leave it!"
"Are you calling yourself stupid, or just arrogant?" Ma Long struck a pose ready to advance, intending to resolve the combat in the shortest time to avoid being interrupted.
Chu Hao also raised his fists, equally unwilling to waste time!
"Go to hell!" Ma Long lunged, his hands turned to claws, swiftly aiming for Chu Hao's neck and head.
Because it was a strike intended to be fatal, he had given it his all.
Chu Hao's expression turned sober, his fists thundered out.
Triple Wave!
Bang!
As the fist met the claw, a powerful shockwave was immediately produced. Puff puff puff puff, the sleeves of both burst into shreds, flying into countless fragments, an expression of disbelief appeared on Ma Long's face.
Chu Hao's strength could actually match his own!
How was this possible!
Yet before he finished the thought, he felt Chu Hao's fist vibrate slightly, and another vigorous force blasted towards him.
"Not good, this is the Chu Family's Ultimate Technique, Triple Wave!"
Ma Long's face turned pale with fright. Although the Ma Family also had advanced martial techniques, he had never been able to master the essence of them! He indeed knew that Chu Hao had mastered the Triple Wave, but he had always thought Chu Hao's strength had not yet stepped into the First Tier Lesser Mahayana realm. What threat could the Triple Wave pose to him then?
How could this be!
Spurt!
He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if his hand bones were about to break! But at that moment, Chu Hao's fist vibrated again, unleashing the third wave of force!
"Wow—" Ma Long staggered backward, and although the punch hit his hand, the intense shock made it feel as if his internal organs were flipping over, an indescribably uncomfortable sensation.
"How could this be! How is this possible!" Ma Long's face twisted ferociously, his eyes filled with confusion. But he immediately gritted his teeth and turned to run.
He did not want to die!
Chu Hao bounced on his feet, chasing after Ma Long rapidly.
Ma Long staggered, the punch from Chu Hao had already caused him considerable injury—it was the strongest move of the advanced martial technique, Mad Wind Fist!
Chu Hao was already upon him, his right fist lifted high and slammed toward Ma Long's back.
Bang!
Ma Long managed to turn back and parry, but his body shook immediately— he vomited another mouthful of fresh blood violently. After this bout of vomiting, he couldn't stop, continuously spewing blood.
"Chu Hao, I can't accept this!" Ma Long bellowed with wide eyes.
"So what? Am I supposed to let you kill me?" Chu Hao caught up and kept punching relentlessly.
Ma Long no longer had the strength to fend him off; his chest received seven punches, his clothes completely shattered, and a large depression formed around his heart, clearly breaking bones and starting to seep blood.
Chu Hao stopped; the opponent's heart had been shattered, and he was close to death.
"...Even if I die, my father will kill you! You won't live long either!" Blood sprayed from Ma Long's mouth as he muttered, his eyes wide open—he died with his eyes open, unable to believe that Chu Hao's power could match his, leading to his death.
Trying to trap a general but instead getting devoured by one!
Chu Hao of course felt no sympathy for such a person. He gave a slight smile and said, "You know what's funny? Everyone thought my power hadn't yet stepped into the First Tier Lesser Mahayana realm. How could I possibly kill someone like you, an 'expert'?"
"Cough!" Already spewing blood, Ma Long, under the excitement, let out another mouthful of blood that shot out more than three meters, displaying the turmoil inside him.
"As for who will take the blame... I don't know!" Chu Hao shrugged. "After all, you have offended quite a lot of people, and many would line up to see you dead. Let your father slowly investigate! He can't possibly arrest and interrogate every suspect, no matter how bold he is, right?"
"Spurt—" Ma Long spewed another mouthful of blood, sitting up straight only to fall heavily again. This was his final flicker of life, and after this crash, there was no breath left in him.
Chu Hao took a deep breath, completely forgetting about Ma Long, and walked on; he still needed to complete the remaining seals.
In less than half an hour, he had stamped all the remaining seals.
He started walking toward the entrance, which was also the exit, and upon arriving, he found over two hundred students there.
These more than two hundred people must have given up halfway, as he could tell from where they stood—most were opposite the supervising teacher, with only one person standing beside them.
That person must have been the only one to stamp all ten seals and was the first to exit.
—Chi Dao!
Chu Hao thought about it and did not immediately walk out, but retreated to the side and waited.
He did not want to appear too spectacular.
After a while, the second person finally came out and handed the fully stamped paper to the supervising teacher—it was Huang Yaping.
Chu Hao was not in a hurry, not until Tang Xin also came out, then he walked toward the exit.
He was the sixth.
"Oh, Chu Hao, you lasted quite long!" The teacher was somewhat surprised to see Chu Hao, having assumed he would be among the first batch to be scared off.
Chu Hao smiled faintly, handing over the paper with the full seals, saying, "I was with Tang Xin!"
He actually made it through!
The teacher was initially stunned, but recalling that he had the protection of the expert Tang Xin, it was no surprise that Chu Hao could collect all the stamps. He said, with a strange expression, "You're really lucky, actually the sixth!"
Being the sixth meant representing the Eastern Sect in the battle, but this guy hadn't even reached the First Tier Lesser Mahayana realm. Wouldn't that make the Western Faction laugh at them for having no one competent in the Eastern Sect? However, rules are rules, and since the first eight to get out with full stamps were to represent the Eastern Sect in the battle, how could it be easily changed?
"Really good luck!" Chu Hao said with a laugh, naturally not mentioning that he had actually waited quite a long time, and if not for the fight with Ma Long, who knows if he might have been faster than Chi Dao!
Tang Xin looked surprised; he had indeed set out with Chu Hao, but they had separated not long after! Naturally, he would not say that; he wasn't foolish!
