Meng Hao’s face had an extremely arrogant appearance. The cautiousness and patience he’d had for the past few decades had disappeared completely.

Feeling the thousands of gazes on him, he felt extremely satisfied and had a great feeling of delightfulness and exaltation.

This feeling made him his aura grow even stronger. In addition to his physique and strong presence, when Meng Hao stood in front of Fang Xingjian, he seemed like the Hulk fighting Captain America. [1]

Moreover, he understood clearly as to just how strong the diabolic energy he had was.

There were a total of twelve types of diabolic energy, which led to the segregation of twelve schools of Mages and twelve types of sorcery.

The sorcery he had was Red Sorcery, performed by a powerful Red Robed Mage.

Additionally, out of the twelve schools of sorcery, Red Sorcery was the one which was best in strengthening one’s physique, strength and body’s tenacity. It was one of the sorceries which was most suitable for face-to-face combat.

Looking at Fang Xingjian, he let out a cold laugh and said, “Fang Xingjian, you weren’t expecting this, were you? You must have thought that it was just a harmless earthworm blocking your path, but it has now suddenly turned into a huge dragon. Are you astonished and disappointed?

“You’re thinking of fighting with Hoult for first place in the Regional Selection.

“But I want to pull you down from being one of the contenders for the Regional Champion and fight it out with Hoult.”

“Earthworm? Huge dragon?” Fang Xingjian drew out the Styx, which was at his waist, slowly. Looking at the imprints on the Styx, Fang Xingjian shook his head and said, “There’s a saying that goes like this, ‘Even pearls as small as a grain of rice want to shine.’ Have you heard of it?”

Meng Hao frowned. This saying did not exist in Miracle World, but he could sense instinctively that Fang Xingjian’s words held disdain toward him. Therefore, Meng Hao’s face darkened as he asked, “What does it mean?’

Fang Xingjian flicked his finger on the Styx slightly, releasing a melodious and crisp ringing sound.

“It means that even pearls which are as small as rice grains want to shine before gemstones and pearls.” Fang Xingjian shook his head. “After cultivating for so many years, it must have been hard for you to reach your current level. Since that’s the case, why did you need to come and be humiliated?”

Fury flashed in Meng Hao’s eyes. Ever since he received the diabolic energy, the people he hated the most were people who looked down on him. Fang Xingjian’s way of doing things at present was the greatest humiliation to him.

“Hmph, we’ll find out who is the grain of rice and who is the pearl after the fight.”

After saying this, Meng Hao’s fist, which was the size of a wok, punched out across space. In that instant, the Reduced Force Field exploded, causing the entire battered arena to be covered with sand and rock. The surging force hit into the air, creating air currents, which were like shock waves hitting out toward Fang Xingjian.

One punch followed after another and Meng Hao’s hands were like a hundred afterimages. The violent power compacted together in the air because of the amazing speed at which the punches were dealt.

Before the front rows of air currents hit their target, those at the back caught up and joined with them, pushing them forward.

Just like that, the strength of a hundred, or even a thousand punches, were condensed into the air currents, heading from one side of the arena toward another where Fang Xingjian was at. If Fang Xingjian were to leave the arena, it would be considered his loss. Therefore, Meng Hao’s attack left Fang Xingjian with no way to escape. Fang Xingjian could only face the attack head-on.

This method of piling up power from his punches while using the air as the medium was his Killing technique—Gust Amassing Force.

However, for ordinary Knights, they were limited to stacking up ten or twenty types of forces. However, Meng Hao was now relying on his endless physical strength, supersonic speed, and that violent power, which was like that of a terrifying dinosaur. He amassed the power of hundreds of punches forcefully, launching the power toward Fang Xingjian in the form of shock waves.
