Yu Bao recognised these few lads.
In the entire Spirit Region, Three-Spirits City was not considered a big city, and since these lads were frequent visitors, naturally, Yu Bao could recognise them. These few youngsters had highly influential backgrounds, stemming from different clans, and when these young masters group together, no one in the city dared to tread on their toes.
“It’s really the bronze mechanical ostrich!” A boy in a white shirt stared at the ostrich with much interest, marvelling, “I have previously read in books that the bronze mechanical ostrich is one of the most famous mounts of the Southern Cross Army, I can’t believe that I actually got to see the real ostrich in person.”
Just then, a girl in a purple shirt beside the boy in the white shirt, ran to his side and ruffled his sleeves continuously, “Brother Wei, I want the big bird! I want the big bird!”
Yu Bao’s expression changed, but immediately turned to a weird expression.
The other lads had an odd expression as well and tried to stifle their laughter.
Lin Wei turned to Tang Tian rather helplessly, “Brother, would it be possible for you to let me have this ostrich?”
Tang Tian shook his head, “No.”
“Hey, lad, be tactful!” Luo Yi, who was at the side, initially wanted to see Lin Wei make a fool of himself, but upon hearing Tang Tian, he could not help but butt in, “Say it, name your price, you better know what’s good for you!”
Tang Tian’s smile disappeared, even idiots could pick up the unfriendliness in his tone. Godlike youngsters were similar to school bullies, and Tang Tian was displeased upon hearing the statement. His eyes narrowed, “Such arrogance!”
“Oh, seems like we’ve hit an iron wall!” Luo Yi’s expression turned frosty.
Tang Tian was on the upper end, he suddenly broke into a smile and the ostrich beneath him snapped into action, charging towards Luo Yi.
“Careful!” Lin Wei’s expression changed.
The ostrich was taller than Tang Tian, about two metres high, and extremely heavy as it was molded solely with bronze. It could become the standard deployment of the Southern Cross Army due to its outstanding capability, as it can maintain an average standard of a fifth level martial artist’s light body technique during long distance running. However, its strongest ability was being able to give its all.
Bing saw Tang Tian charging with the ostrich, and he became momentarily distracted, as once upon a time, the ostrich assault of the Southern Cross Army’s recruit barracks was renowned.
The power of several tons, the terrorising explosive force when charging, and the impact generated, was unparalleled.
Luo Yi felt sudden darkness before his eyes, as if a mountain were collapsing onto him, in that moment, he even felt stifled!
The Spirit General was fast and had excellent reflexes and dodged, re-appearing beside Tang Tian.
Unfortunately, it was as per Tang Tian’s expectations, and he extended his fist!
Bam!
Both parties passed by, and the Spirit General was sent flying in the air.
The ostrich’s speed was already astounding, coupled with the Spirit General’s attacking speed, although Tang Tian only executed the rank three Minute Collapsing Fist, the Spirit General was rebounded far away as though it had been hit by a giant hammer.
Bing witnessed the scene and he was euphoric. Tang Tian’s moves did not seem rusty and were even aptly executed.
The exact demeanour of a Southern Cross Army recruit!
Bing was bemoaned.
Tang Tian had seemingly no wish to reduce his speed, he bent and lowered his body, and the eyes of the ostrich suddenly flashed, the two claws reared up and the head was flat like a long spear in an assault team.
The years of extermination, the ancient bronze bird, it charges again!
Target, Luo Yi!
A tragic air instantly enveloped Luo Yi.
Lin Wei’s expression turned stoic, and felt his heart dropped. Luo Yi turned pale, he was totally shocked by the opposition’s demeanour and transfixed, not even attempting to dodge.
At this moment, a snowy-white hand appeared behind Luo Yi without warning and pulled him to the side hastily.
On seeing that they were going to brush past the ostrich, Tang Tian snorted coldly and quietly pointed his right leg like a venomous snake.
The opposition responded rapidly and blocked Tang Tian’s leg with the other hand.
However, she underestimated the power of Tang Tian’s leg, Crane Body Energy coupled with the power of the ostrich’s assault, with a stifling moan, she was sent flying with Luo Yi.
“You have some standard!”
Tang Tian eyes flashed with excitement, and the ostrich screeched to a halt after scratching two deep grooves in the floor in a brilliant flash of light, successfully changing its intended direction. As for the girl carrying Luo Yi, they had yet to land.
“Wow, wow, wow! You guys won’t be able to escape!”
Tang Tian had yet to complete his sentence, but the ostrich had already leapt straight towards the girl and Luo Yi in midair.
Lin Wei regained his senses and his face was contorted with fury, “Ba Fan! Finish him off!”
A strong and menacing Spirit General floating beside Lin Wei opened its eyes abruptly, bent its knees slightly, and bolted towards Tang Tian like a cannonball.
Flash!
Out of the blue, a figure appeared before Ba Fan.
Ghost Claw coldly fixated its gaze on Ba Fan.
Ba Fan was robust and sturdy like a block of mountain, and had a strong menace below its expressionless face. On the contrary, Ghost Claw paled in comparison, being as thin as a matchstick, and a rickety back, bearing much resemblance to an old man dying of hunger.
However, Ba Fan unexpectedly shrank back slightly.
