Devouring Soul Emperor

The moment the Vajra Body cracked, Chu Qingyun surged forward. He unleashed another Thunder Sword Momentum, cleaving down hard on Jintai!

This strike made the cracks on the golden light even denser. It looked as if one more touch would shatter it completely.

"Bastard, get the hell away from me!"

Jintai roared and threw a punch at Chu Qingyun. All his previous smugness and arrogance were gone, replaced by a face full of terror.

He focused all his energy on maintaining the crumbling Vajra Body, leaving him no strength to even use his Vajra Power.

A punch like that was merely the strike of an ordinary ninth-level Martial Artist. Chu Qingyun didn’t even give it a second thought.

"Break!"

Chu Qingyun let out a low shout, pushing the Third Layer of his Profound Celestial Divine Pattern to its limit as he met Jintai’s fist with a vicious punch of his own.

BOOM! CRACK CRACK CRACK...

This collision was the straw that broke the camel’s back. Jintai’s Vajra Body could no longer hold on!

Starting from the point where their fists met, the golden light cocooning his body began to shatter into fine fragments, flaking off him continuously.

It spread from his fist to his entire body. In just a few seconds, his once-invincible Vajra Body completely collapsed!

"No, impossible... How could this happen? The Vajra Body is supposed to be invincible..."

Watching his Vajra Body rapidly disappear, Jintai’s eyes went wide, his face a mask of utter disbelief.

But Chu Qingyun just grinned and chuckled. "Jintai, it’s time to pay your debts!"

"You..."

Jintai was terrified.

However, Chu Qingyun didn’t even give him a chance to speak. With a vicious uppercut, a CRACK echoed as Jintai’s jaw was shattered, sending his whole body flying into the air, head thrown back.

Secret Techniques, much like Martial Souls, are difficult to restore in a short time once they’ve been forcefully broken, as it’s hard to gather enough Primordial Power to reactivate them.

Without his Vajra Undying Secret Method, Jintai’s strength was probably only comparable to a Great Xia Dragon Guard’s Iron Medal Captain. Before Chu Qingyun, he was completely defenseless!

As Jintai flew upward and reached his apex, two vines from a Ten-Star Vine suddenly shot out from behind him. They bound his arms and legs, then violently smashed him down onto the fighting ring.

BAM!

The dull thud of the impact made many people around the ring wince.

Jintai lay face down, half his body embedded in the ring’s floor.

"This one is for the Gold Medal Captains of my Celestial Wind Army..."

After speaking, Chu Qingyun controlled the vines again, hoisting Jintai high into the air. "This one is for the Silver Medal Captains of my Celestial Wind Army!"

BAM!

Another dull thud echoed as Jintai smashed a human-shaped crater into the ring.

The first time, Jintai had still twisted and struggled. But after the second slam, he was dizzy and seeing stars, with several ribs and his sternum broken. His face was almost flattened!

After a brief pause, Jintai was lifted a third time. "And this one is for the Iron Medal Captains of my Celestial Wind Army!"

BAM!

Jintai was slammed into the ring once more!

At this moment, on the Observation Platform, the Grand Commanders of the Celestial Wind Army were all red-faced with excitement. They clenched their fists, grinning so wide they couldn’t close their mouths.

Before, Jintai had been so arrogant, so smug, sweeping through nearly all the Celestial Wind Army’s captains, leaving them all severely injured and vomiting blood.

But now, it was finally the Celestial Wind Army’s turn for revenge!

In stark contrast to them, the expressions of the upper echelons of the Four Great Clans turned grim. This was especially true for the members of the Jin Family; watching their Young Clan Leader be so brutally tortured made them both anxious and furious.

The powerful figures on the Observation Platform, mindful of their status and composure, could only be inwardly excited and thrilled.

But the people surrounding the ring didn’t care about such decorum. Every time Jintai was brutally slammed onto the ring, the surrounding Great Xia Dragon Guards erupted in excited cheers.

As for the Celestial Wind Army captains who had been injured by Jintai, they were all ecstatic beyond words. Some even aggravated their injuries in their excitement, causing them to spit up blood.

But even so, not a single one of them chose to leave and seek medical treatment.

Watching Jintai get beaten so savagely by one of their own from the Celestial Wind Army was just too damn satisfying!

After three violent slams, Chu Qingyun once again used the vines to hoist Jintai high into the air. "Now then, it’s time we settled the score between us."

At this point, the referee on the ring could no longer stand by and watch.

If something bad happened to the Jin Family’s Young Clan Leader, he knew he would be in deep trouble.

"Captain Chu Qingyun, Young Master Jin has already lost! This challenge ends here!"

As he spoke, the aura of a first-level Martial Spirit erupted from the referee. He leaped up, reaching for Jintai in mid-air.

He didn’t dare to openly attack Chu Qingyun, but he was confident he could at least rescue Jintai.

But at almost the same instant, a figure shot up from below the ring, delivering a mid-air kick that sent the referee flying backward off the stage.

The person then used the momentum to flip and land gracefully back below the ring.

"Hmph, ends here? You wish! Anyone who dares to screw with my Celestial Wind Army had better be prepared to get wrecked!"

"Chu Qingyun, keep hitting him! I’d like to see who dares to stop you today!"

Chu Qingyun found the man who had intervened somewhat familiar. He seemed to be a Lord Guardian from the Celestial Wind Army, a third-level Martial Spirit.

Chu Qingyun smiled at him in thanks.

Then, with another BAM, he smashed Jintai into the ring. When he was lifted up again this time, he was dripping blood.

Even a ninth-level Martial Artist couldn’t withstand being smashed like this over and over again.

Seeing Jintai hoisted into the air once more, the Celestial Spirit Realm Elder from the Jin Family on the Observation Platform finally couldn’t sit still. "Lord Military Commander, I concede on behalf of my Young Clan Leader. Can this challenge end now?"

"End?" The Celestial Wind Army Master shot him a cool glance. "Weren’t you the ones who wanted to offer ’guidance’ earlier? Now that the ’guidance’ has arrived, you want it to end?"

As they spoke, Jintai was once again smashed heavily onto the ring. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

The Jin Family Elder’s eyelid twitched. With a dark expression, he said, "Celestial Wind Army Master, the Young Clan Leader is my Clan Leader’s most beloved son. If anything were to happen to him, I’m afraid it would be difficult to explain to the Clan Leader."

The Clan Leaders of the Four Great Clans were all experts at the King Realm.

He had no other choice now but to play the Clan Leader card.

However, the Celestial Wind Army Master didn’t care in the slightest. He sneered and said, "My Celestial Wind Army had over a hundred Captain-level officers severely injured within the County City. How do you expect me to explain something like that to the Lord Chief Manager?"

All around, the Celestial Wind Army’s Grand Commanders began to laugh.

’The Jin Family might have a Martial King Realm Clan Leader, but their Great Xia Dragon Guards also have a Lord Chief Manager at the Martial King Realm—and he’s even stronger than their Clan Leader!’
