Chapter 455: Incorrect Posture (1/2)
Cheng Wu stepped out of the Skyfall Cascade, infuriated as well. Those two bastards didn’t even want to become the Sea King’s son-in-law, but they had still worked together to eliminate him.
The most furious one, however, was Hai Dashao. The space around him even became unstable, and a crack extended in the void that was obviously suppressed. “What are these brats treating this selection as? They’re asking for death!”
Only Che Han truly wanted to pull out the Sea King’s Trident, and he proceeded to do so.
No one stopped him, and he effortlessly moved beside the Sea King’s Trident. He endured the trident’s threatening aura and grabbed it. There was a strangely gentle feeling when his hand made contact with it, and it did not feel as if he had clasped a weapon used to kill.
Everyone stared at him; Che Han was now only a single step away from becoming the Sea King’s future son-in-law.
Hai Dashao coldly stared at the arena, not at Che Han and instead focusing his gaze onto Mu Rong and Lu Yin. He did not seem to care whether or not Che Han pulled the Sea King’s Trident out.
Che Han exerted some force and tried to pull the weapon out, but it did not budge at all. He was stunned. He then looked at the ground and strained both legs, causing cracks to appear in the ground, and even a pit formed, extending outwards in all directions. Despite all his effort, the Sea King’s Trident remained embedded in place, and nothing changed within a meter of the weapon. The ground in that area had fully withstood Che Han’s strength.
Lu Yin watched on in amazement, as he had already known that the Sea King’s Trident would not be easily pulled out.
Che Han exerted his strength again. His physical strength was not weak, or else he would not have wielded a spear as his weapon. However, even after he used all of his strength, the Sea King’s Trident did not move a single inch. Furthermore, it didn’t even quiver.
Everyone watched Che Han, the same person who had defeated Qin Chen and was now ranked eightieth on the Top 100 Rankings at the minimum. Even this person could not pull out the weapon, which could only mean that this Sea King’s Trident was special.
“Rumor has it that the Sea King’s Trident is the Sea King’s personal weapon. It has traveled throughout the universe, tasting blood, and countless people want to steal it.This trident itself is an invaluable treasure,” someone at the middle section of the mountain mentioned.
“I heard that all of the experts under the Sea King have tried to pull out this trident, but not a single one of them has ever succeeded,” someone else added.
“Hush! Who knows? Look at what happened to that group of pretty boys—they’re all covered in dirt now. It’s pretty obvious that they were toyed with by the Sea King, so maybe the Sea King enjoys playing such tricks.”
“That shouldn’t be the case. I’ve heard that the Sea King stays in seclusion all year round and doesn’t play around.”
“It's probably precisely because he’s in seclusion all year round! He must be bored.”
“He can’t be that bored.”
…
Big Pao was rendered speechless as he listened to all the discussions taking place around them. “I never thought that the Sea King would be such a person. Lulu, if your Mavis seniors isolate themselves, then will they end up so bored that they’ll want to play around by fooling others?”
Lulu rolled her eyes. “Of course not! Our seniors are all very serious.”
Big Pao nodded.
“At most, they’ll raise the prices and let everyone feel how difficult it is to earn money,” Lulu continued.
Big Pao was dumbfounded. “Lulu, those words would absolutely infuriate people if they heard it.”
Coco widened her eyes. “So the rise in price for being treated by our Windrift Hall is because of your Mavis family.”
Lulu blinked. “Little brat, what do we have to do with you people raising the price? Don’t blame the wealthy for everything.”
Coco pursed her lips and then looked at the screen in worry. “Will Brother Lu fight against Mu Rong?”
Lulu was excited at such a possibility. “They better! Then we can see who’s really the unequaled Limiteer in the universe.”
“Mu Rong, Mu Rong, I love you! Mu Rong, Mu Rong, you’re the best!”
“Mu Rong, Mu Rong, I love you! Mu Rong, Mu Rong, you’re the best!”
…
In the back, the cheerleaders continued performing their job as they excitedly watched Mu Rong on the screen.
Che Han exploded with his full power, and his Fireglass Frost distorted the void. Both of his hands were firmly placed on the Sea King’s Trident as he strained upwards with a growl.
Upon seeing this scene, Lu Yin and Mu Rong exchanged glances, and they felt that something was wrong. If Che Han failed, it would be their turn next, and if they were unlucky, they might actually pull the trident out, which would mean that they would become the Sea King’s son-in-law. As Lu Yin continued thinking about it, he fell into a dilemma and began considering whether he should fight against Mu Rong or just retreat.
Mu Rong reacted faster. He took the initiative to rush into the distance, clearly planning on withdrawing from the competition.
Lu Yin cursed under his breath and headed in another direction, as he had to leave the area before Che Han completely failed.
However, even though their thought processes were correct, their goal could not be achieved. There were two loud bangs as both Lu Yin and Mu Rong were sent flying back at the same time. They had been blasted backwards by an attack.
Lu Yin retreated a hundred meters as an intense pain blossomed in both of his arms. The very moment he had tried to leave, a shadow had flitted by, moved in front of him, and then released a ferocious attack. Fortunately, he had reacted quickly and blocked it with battle force reinforced arms. Otherwise, that strike would have directly landed on his face.
Even with the support of his battle force, his physical body had nearly crumbled from that powerful attack. Lu Yin looked up and saw a furious young man.
On the other side of the arena, Mu Rong was in the same predicament as Lu Yin. He had similarly been pushed back by an attack, also by that same youth.
These two unequaled Limiteers who were still a part of the younger generation had been simultaneously sent flying by the same youth, which shocked them both. This person was terrifyingly powerful.
At the middle part of the Sea King’s Dome’s mountain, someone cried out, “It’s Hai Dashao! Hai Dashao made a move!”
No one had expected Hai Dashao to suddenly appear at this critical final juncture.
Michelle and the rest were stunned, as this person was Hai Dashao, someone who had been famous for a long time. He was ranked seventh in the Top 100 Rankings and was one of the youths closest to the Ten Arbiters’ strength. It was no wonder why he had been able to easily repulse fling Mu Rong and Lu Yin back, as he was strong enough to casually crush the both of them.
“Who are you?” Lu Yin asked as he looked at the youth.
The youth clasped both of his hands behind his back. He glanced at Lu Yin and Mu Rong before settling his gaze on Che Han.
