Chapter 35 (1/2)

Even though Zhao Yong had put incredible strength behind his attack during their instantaneous clash, he had nothing to exert his strength against.

Zhao Yong felt stifled. He was the most powerful fighter in the military, yet he was being toyed with by an assassin.

However, the other party’s marvelous sword technique and adaptability were far beyond what Zhao Yong had expected.

It appeared that Gao Xuan had been able to kill Zhao Feng not because of luck or an ambush but because he was truly skilled.

Even though Zhao Yong was a little frustrated, his mind was calm at this moment.

He had taken a picture of the bright red “M” mark on the wall with his optical computer.

Zhao Yong recognized it as the gruesome mark that the Blood Deity Association used when they executed their enemies.

The optical computer also conducted data analysis on Gao Xuan’s strength, speed, reaction time, and movements.

There was too much data. Zhao Yong didn’t have the time to look through all of it, and only glanced at a few important details.

The speed at which his target moved his sword was 307 m/s, while the target itself moved at a speed of 81 m/s. It was estimated that his Source Power Level was above Level Seven…

“Level Seven?” Zhao Yong was a little surprised. He felt that Gao Xuan was at least a Source Power Level Eight cultivator.

His tiger claw that he had activated at full speed could easily destroy any opponent who was the same level as him.

However, the other party had managed to borrow some of the tiger claw’s force by gently tapping on it with his blood-colored long sword. At the same time, he had made an error in judgment.

In the end, Gao Xuan had taken advantage of his force and gracefully avoided his attack, while he’d directly flown out of the living room because of his momentum.

How could a person with such brilliant and experienced sword technique just be Level Seven?

Zhao Yong readjusted his battle armor. The Battle Tiger Model Three turned around, then rapidly charged back into the room through the hole it had created.

This time, Zhao Yong adjusted the damage output efficiency of the battle armor and lowered its speed.

Zhao Yong didn’t waste time talking. He didn’t have anything to say to the other party. He moved around Gao Xuan and unleashed a ferocious torrent of attacks.

This time, Zhao Yong utilized every part of his body and activated the Crazed Tiger Fist Technique to its maximum capacity.

The Crazed Tiger Fist Technique was a technique that had been specially developed for the exoskeleton armor. It maximized the exoskeleton armor’s strengths and displayed them at their most advantageous.

This was especially so when he was facing an opponent who wasn’t wearing armor. Zhao Yong could unleash a manic attack without holding back.

Under Zhao Yong’s control, the 400-pound Battle Tiger Model Three battle armor was like a ferocious steel tiger. It had the agility and ferocity of a fierce tiger.

The black five-pronged star wheel between Gao Xuan’s eyebrows started turning. With the five-pronged star wheel in the middle, a few of Gao Xuan’s Source Power Nodes made up a system and provided his body with a sufficient amount of Source Power.

The Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada deep within his consciousness flapped its wings and released a long, melancholic cry.

The Battle Tiger Model Three’s movements rapidly slowed down, and Gao Xuan could see all of the battle armor’s next possible movements in the form of a figure of light.

The battle armor was a machine, which made its movements easier to predict.

The Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada’s grade was too high. Even a Silver Grade fighter, much less the Battle Tiger Model Three battle armor, wouldn’t be able to escape the Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada’s predictions.

In actuality, Gao Xuan didn’t really need the Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada. With his experience and intelligence, he could easily predict his opponent’s intentions when he attacked him.

Gao Xuan was undefeated in these kinds of battles.

Zhao Yong didn’t know this. The 400-pound Battle Tiger battle armor looked as light as the wind under his control. The tiger claws’ attacks were fierce and tight. He didn’t hit any of the furniture or decoration around him as he chased after Gao Xuan.

Of course, all the furniture that was in the way was inevitably smashed.

Gao Xuan’s figure was like a phantom. It was impossible to predict when he was going to advance and retreat. He could avoid the cruel tiger claws just as they were about to hit him.

The two of them were stuck in battle for a few minutes. The living room had been ravaged. All of the furniture had been reduced to shreds.

There were deep claw marks all around the walls. The sheep wool carpet on the ground had been stomped into mush.

Although Zhao Yong always had the upper hand during battle, he was a little flustered fighting Gao Xuan.

The other party wasn’t as fast as him, nor as powerful. They were within striking range of each other, yet Gao Xuan was like a phantom. He couldn’t even graze his clothes with any of his attacks.

The other party’s Source Power also seemed endless, without any signs that it’d soon be depleted.

If they continued to battle like this, Zhao Feng’s villa might be demolished before the other party sustained any damage.

Zhao Yong let out a low grunt. The black Battle Tiger Model Three battle armor shone with bolts of eerie blue light, and his speed suddenly increased by 30%.

This was the second stage of the Battle Tiger Model Three. It was now expending 130% more energy, but its battle efficiency had drastically increased.

How much its battle capabilities were enhanced depended on the abilities of the person controlling the battle armor.

Zhao Yong was a high-level mechanic. The Battle Tiger Model Three battle armor had a total of 1600 pieces of mechanical muscle and over three million unique alloy muscle fibers.

The Battle Tiger Model Three was capable of any movement a human could make.

Zhao Yong had kinetic control over the Battle Tiger Model Three battle armor through the millions of nerve connections he had with the armor.
