The Favored Son of Heaven

Qin Fen nodded slowly without any rush. It seemed like Du Peng had not only improved his strength, but also his charisma along his star-rank. Every one of these young people capable of entering the Sacred Martial Hall were prideful individuals. It was really an amazing sight for them to admire Du Peng so much.

“Excuse me.”

In the corridor, Du Peng raised his long-lost deep voice.

Just as the young martial artists were creating a path, an intense, saber-like battle intent emitted through the crowd.

Yang Lie quickly looked at each other: “Who shall go first?”

Just as Yang Lie was in the middle of completing his sentence, the crowd had already created a passage. The ground of the corridor began to shake violently as a series of footsteps resembling a cavalry charge in an ancient battlefield engulfed Qin Fen’s team that was standing in front of the building.

From the darkness, Du Peng’s pupils shone with brightness, as his rising body resembled a cavalry general from the ancient battlefield. The air and his body produced sounds of friction similar to screaming warhorses as he lightly dragged a saber with his right hand, locking Yang Lie’s soul with his aura.

Du Peng’s sudden strike gave Qin Fen illusory visions. The figure of the deceased Du Zhanpeng seemingly integrated with Du Peng during the strike.

This blow didn’t feel like it came from Du Peng’s, but more like Du Zhanpeng had taken over his body and made the slash.

Warhorses and scimitars! Du Peng resembled the God of War, Guan Yu from the ancient past as terrified screams rose from wherever his right arm swung!

Du Peng finally understood the essence of the Seven Stars of Immortal Thunder Cavalry, which was the essence of slaughter in the ancient battlefield!

Twelve-star! The new martial artists screamed at the top of their lungs. They had never witnessed the Du Peng today although they followed him for a long time. His strength today was much stronger than usual. His suffocating murderous aura showed that he would even be capable of annihilating a Jungle Ranger mobile armor, let alone mortals made of flesh and blood.

Yang Lie displayed a smile in his eyes with a straight posture. It wasn’t the first time he witnessed the Seven Stars of Immortal Thunder Cavalry. He lifted his left foot seemingly upright, it was the movement technique from his defeat in the special training, the Dragon-Tiger Movement!

Although the step seemed upright and majestic, it was not a silly step. Yang Lie entered the attack range of Du Peng with only a step, as his shoulders sprung out for a punch the very moment it trembled!

Unexpectedly, this punch also resembled the Seven Stars of Immortal Thunder Cavalry, as the striking arm was covered with the suffocating murderous intent from the blood and steel in the ancient battlefield. The air was compressed with freezing coldness, as the punch produced an air pressure visible to the naked eye!

Although it couldn’t channel true energy like Qin Fen, the Little Dragon King, Yang Lie had utilized his true energy specialty of absolute coldness, displaying the channeling of real energy from a punch without the channeling of true energy.

Thirteen-star rank! Du Peng’s eyes flashed with astonishment as the fists of both sides summoned the roars of swords clashing in ancient battlefields as they slammed into each other!

Boom!

The sturdy earth trembled continuously. As the ground cracked and vibrations were emitted from the ground, Du Peng’s blood-pumped right arm suddenly became pale. His palm clenched into a fist, causing the hairs on his shoulder to stand, all the while a thick white mist surrounding his arms.

The ice-cold true energy of the New Xuanming Divine Art was forced out by Du Peng in an instant. Yang Lie dashed in front of Du Peng using his Dragon-Tiger Movement and silently placed his left palm to Du Peng’s lower abdomen.

…

The scene was quiet. The young martial artists covered their ears with their hands, staring at the battle that started abruptly and ended in a moment.

Du Peng, the building leader with long-standing insolence was defeated in an instant to the previous legendary newcomer team.

“Du Peng, you’ve become stronger after not seeing you for a few days.” Yang Lie praised him while showing approval with his thumb, “You are really making some rapid progress right there.”
