Chapter 124: Great God, Take My Kneeling! [28th 6/13]
"You think I'm as stupid as you? My grandfather already said not to get involved in today's affairs, otherwise, he'd lock me up. You, with your cowardly look, still dare to tempt me? If you have the guts, go challenge Xu Hao yourself!"
"Miss Zhou, you jest." Sun Hanren laughed and didn't say anything more. He was just trying to provoke her, not really thinking it would work, but if it did, all the better.
Zhou Shuran glanced at Xu Hao, and though she really didn't want to admit it, she had to say the guy was incredibly strong.
Zhou Shuran tilted her head and thought for a moment, then suddenly shouted towards the field, "Tang Batian, beat him senseless for me! If you cripple or kill him, I'll take responsibility! Just make sure you thrash his ass until it blooms!"
On the spacious grassy field.
The wind surged and clouds gathered.
Like a War God, Tang Batian stood tall and proud, between heaven and earth.
Xu Hao was like a sharp sword, aiming to pierce through the sky.
Xu Hao knew this would be a tough battle, so he prepared to boost his strength immediately.
He wasn't intimidating his opponent because he hadn't been idle these past few days, constantly refining his body with a secret technique, planning to ascend to Grandmaster level when his physical body achieved Great Achievement.
The stronger the foundation, the more explosive the progress, the more powerful one would be upon reaching Grandmaster Level!
Tang Batian smiled and said, "Xu Hao, it seems you have quite a few enemies!"
"Heh," Xu Hao couldn't be bothered to reply.
Seeing Xu Hao not making a move, Tang Batian said coldly, "Why don't you take the opportunity to strike while I'm gathering power?"
Xu Hao replied with a smile, "What glory would it be to defeat you at your strongest?"
Tang Batian immediately laughed, "Humph! That's arrogant! I like it! Don't worry, after I defeat you, I'll take you in as my little brother!"
Xu Hao showed no weakness, "Sorry, you won't get the chance!"
"Hmph! I know this battle will attract everyone's attention, but I'm going to defeat you and subdue you under their gaze, to utilize you for my purposes!"
Tang Batian's power reached its peak, he roared, swung both hammers, and leaped into the sky!
At that moment, he was like a Heavenly God descending to Earth, extraordinarily fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Xu Hao's face!
Liu Ruyan was shocked to her core, knowing that if Xu Hao got hit, he would undoubtedly be smashed to pieces!
"Ha!"
With a light shout, Xu Hao's physical strength suddenly surged, and golden Dragon Patterns that only he could see appeared on his hands.
Instantly, his palms, as if cast from steel, smacked down on Tang Batian's Lei Guweng Golden Hammers!
"Crack!"
Xu Hao's body merely shook slightly before he stabilized his stance.
Meanwhile, Tang Batian's body, weighing over two hundred pounds, plus the eight hundred-pound Lei Guweng Golden Hammers, for a total weight exceeding a thousand pounds, flew out like a kite with its string cut, crashing heavily to the ground, unable to get up for a long time!
Everyone froze in shock!
Police officers forgot to maintain order, pedestrians forgot to walk, those with open mouths forgot to close them, and those eating ice cream forgot to take another bite.
Zhou Shuran's mouth hung wide open; she had been ready to cheer for Tang Batian, with the words on the tip of her tongue, but she swallowed them back down.
And those like Sun Hanren were so astonished they nearly fell off their chairs.
Family Heads watching the live feed were overwhelmed with shock.
For this scene was simply too unbelievable!
Have you ever seen an elephant blasted away by a slap from an ant?
The scene at that moment was no different!
Liu Ruyan quickly recovered from her astonishment, thrilled beyond measure. She rushed over and threw herself onto Xu Hao, cheering, "We won! We actually won! Hubby, you're the best!"
Xu Hao gently patted her shoulder and smiled, "Honey, I'm sorry for worrying you just now."
At that point, Tang Batian finally managed to stand up, trembling.
His eyes were lifeless, utterly vacuous, like a walking corpse.
Xu Hao, with Liu Ruyan in his arms, walked over, patted Tang Batian on the shoulder, and said, "I thought you were decent at heart, somewhat honest. I once thought you could be a strong man, but you disappointed me. You can't even handle a small setback and dared to trouble me? Are you seeking death?"
Upon hearing Xu Hao's words, Tang Batian said, "I've been defeated, I'm no longer the invincible Tang Batian of the Tang Sect, I'm a nobody."
Xu Hao couldn't help but laugh, "There are flaws in your Tang Sect's martial techniques, or rather, the Tang Sect's martial arts aren't suited for you to cultivate. So here's what, I'll give you a few pointers. Go back and devote yourself to cultivation, and you will surely make significant progress."
Tang Batian looked at Xu Hao's sincere face, genuinely moved. He had never encountered someone so true to him, with Xu Hao's eyes full of nothing but goodwill. To think that he had actually wanted to hit Xu Hao, he felt deeply ashamed.
Xu Hao immediately whispered to him the details of nine moves and eighty-one styles, and though Tang Batian wasn't the smartest, he had a good memory and quickly committed it all to heart.
As Tang Batian reviewed the martial techniques in his mind, many puzzles in his martial arts understanding seemed to resolve themselves instantly. He felt as if he had touched the door to another realm of martial arts. This Xu Hao must have a mentor behind him!
Thinking this, Tang Batian knelt on the ground with a "plunk," exclaiming, "Great one, I offer you my knees!"
