Chapter 1232 - 941: Education

Chapter 1232: Chapter 941: Education

It seems someone has opened a door that should not be opened.

Causing the darkness and nightmares behind the door to erupt.

The moment Huai Shi lifted his gaze, a cacophony of agonizing screams and roars seemed to explode next to everyone’s ears, violently tearing at their souls and consciousness, shattering all defenses, and cruelly pouring in molten iron and glacial rivers.

The burning pain manifested out of nowhere, followed by a terrifying suffocation, as if frozen by the deep sea.

The instant the gentle smile on that face disappeared, the entire world seemed to plunge into the deepest nightmare; abandoning the tenderness and care of accompanying children on a spring outing only resulted in the malice one has when facing an enemy.

Just as Anna wished, Huai Shi finally became serious.

But the cost?

What is the cost?

In that instant, an invisible ghost taunted and whispered in her ear: The cost is to fall into Hell...

"Is this the Sword of Disaster..."

The teenage girl couldn’t help but arch her back like a pouncing lynx, merely raising her hand, the dagger on the ground leapt into her fingers.

On her upturned face, her eyes filled with even more frenzied joy!

Facing such an opponent, her body moved!

Before the trembling began—

Then, she heard a gentle chant next to her ear.

"I know your deeds, your toil, your patience, your hatred of evil, you’ve tested those who claim to be apostles and exposed their falsehoods..."

As if standing on an altar, overlooking believers, chanting the admonitions from the holy book.

To shepherd the lambs.

To let them know the good and evil, right and wrong in the world.

But before that, pain comes first!

Anna’s eyes widened, feeling her body suddenly sluggish and numb, then as if torn and penetrated, the pain spread from her abdomen, sweeping through her entire body.

In an instant, rushing in at a speed imperceptible to the opponent’s eyes.

Huai Shi was already close at hand.

Aimed at the opponent’s unguarded abdomen, he struck a punch.

Thus, her straight body bent under the blow of the Iron Fist, flying out backward.

Outside the arena, Aleksey’s eyes widened in astonishment.

Not shocked by this unexpected power, but stunned by the familiar technique and offensive method.

He stared intently at Huai Shi’s feet.

Those footprints, which had not yet disappeared from the rubber mat, stretched straight forward with Huai Shi and intertwined with Anna’s steps.

Seamlessly connected as one.

Exactly the same.

Is this... combat skills from the Tribunal?!

A thought even Aleksey himself couldn’t believe emerged in his mind.

Accompanied by a loud bang, Anna’s figure flew over the crowd, crashing heavily against the wall, creating a deep dent. But then, she crawled out from the cracks in the wall, supporting her body like a wild beast, her bloodshot eyes filled with ferocity and frenzy.

Charging towards Huai Shi.

Her charge was met by an upraised hand knife.

Huai Shi stood his ground, stepping forward.

Just like that, casually passing by the slender girl.

"No!" Aleksey cried out instinctively, reaching out, but unable to do anything to reverse it.

The soaring scarlet rose before everyone’s eyes, blossoming like a flower, spreading, along with the airborne head. Clearly a brutal and gruesome beheading, yet filled with such breathtaking beauty!

Flawless.

As solemn as providing each life with the purest burial!

Breath-taking...

But when their gazes followed the falling girl and landed on the ground, they saw Anna’s body suddenly bounce back from the ground, rolling and supporting herself.

She raised her hand, reaching for the bruises on her neck.

She was not dead.

Incredibly, that delicate head was still right in place.

Even she couldn’t believe it.

All just now was simply an illusion conceived by the mind and consciousness preceding the observation of the naked eye...

Once.

Huai Shi flicked his wrist like shaking off blood, slowly turning back, coldly looking at the girl on the ground, telling her: "I know your deeds, you are merely alive in name only, but actually dead..."

Each and every word was so familiar.

From the teachings and rules within the Religious Judicature.

Even the steps and every move just now came from the techniques passed down within the Tribunal.

If he closed his eyes, Aleksey would’ve thought the one standing on the stage was an instructor from the Tribunal, holding a red-hot iron rod, cruelly whipping the unripe disciple.

"So good, so good."

Anna grinned, feeling the fear filling her chest, yet unable to contain her excitement: "You actually held back, so arrogant, Huai Shi."

She licked the blood at the corner of her mouth, sneering: "Are you always so gentle with little girls?"

In that instant, her figure suddenly blurred.

In the front, behind, above, below, in every blind spot around, silhouettes of assassins filled with killing intent appeared simultaneously.

Neck, back, groin, arms, inner thigh arteries...

The cold sharpness like a blade pressed against every vital point.

Which is false and which is real?

There’s no need to pay attention at all.

Under the extreme interpretation called ’Erosion Moon,’ any one of them could be real!

In the same instant, six reckless, all-out assassinations descended upon Huai Shi, giving him no room to escape, yet it all proved meaningless.

Because it was too slow—

Huai Shi remained unmoved, looking indifferently ahead.

Even if they were all real, so what?

As long as you crush your opponent before they attack, isn’t that enough!

In that moment, the six phantoms simultaneously vanished without a trace.

In that hair-trigger instant before the offensive launched, Huai Shi’s fist had already broken through space. After crossing several meters, unwaveringly, it struck her face!

It wasn’t extreme interpretation resonance, nor was it a shadow burial shuttle from the Great Priestess. At the root, it was merely a simple punch.

Then, the sound of shattering reached everyone’s ears.

It was the crisp sound of frost breaking!

After a sudden layer of frost appeared, Anna’s head tilted back, nearly overwhelmed by the terrible power contained in that punch, her vision went dark.

But immediately, her pretty face straightened again, with fresh blood streaming from her nostrils, yet her smile was as excited as embracing a phantom dream.

She launched an attack towards the nearby Huai Shi!

Accompanied by an alarm, icy coldness surged in this underground training ground, like a Siberian blizzard descending upon a place, swallowing everything on the platform.

All that could be glimpsed were the outlines of the two combatants.

Or rather, a scene of one-sided brutalization...

When Anna raised her head again, an unforgiving elbow strike swept across, a dull thud erupted. But as if she couldn’t feel pain, she thrust the hand holding the dagger towards Huai Shi’s neck, only to have it coldly twisted away.

Aimed at her chest, a fist landed.

The rapidly growing ice, along with bones and flesh, were once again shattered, with only the full force leaning into the heart, causing that fragile organ to skip a beat.

Anna staggered back, but the arm she raised was caught by Huai Shi, pulled back, and then aimed at her face, another punch followed, breaking the left arm that was obstructing in front.

The sound of bones fracturing continuously echoed from the storm of ice and blood.

Accompanied by cold, low chanting, as if a reprimand from a divinity on the altar, to be inscribed into her soul word by word.

"You must repent and recall the lessons you heard and received before, and keep them. If you do not wake up, I will come like a nightmare, at a time you do not expect..."

Thus, solemnly chanting words from the holy book.

The harsh education descended without reservation upon the rebellious bad student, brutally correcting that deviant behavior, coldly reshaping the distorted soul, cruelly ensuring all lessons were delivered unto her, while also compassionately bestowing doctrines and rules.

"You must stay awake, strengthen what remains and is about to die."

"For I see your works, and they are not complete in my presence—"

The storm roared.

The piercing cold within the snowstorm surged once more, manifesting a blurred outline, rushing towards Huai Shi.

But immediately after, with the sound of bones breaking, it vanished.

When the blizzard slowly dissipated, Anna, who was kneeling on the ground, slowly raised her head, seeing those calm eyes, a sudden realization arose in her heart.

The end had come.

"You must repent."

The cruel executioner gripped the axe blade, aimed at her neck, slowly lifting, finally, the shadow of death covered her face.

She calmly closed her eyes.

In the distant sound of shattering, consciousness faded.

Fallen.

Only the blood-red flowers within the illusion bloomed silently, radiating the enchanting and brilliant spectacle of death.

Yet from beginning to end, Huai Shi never drew a weapon.

He merely looked at her once.

And this brutal execution also reached its end with Anna’s loss of consciousness.

Everyone was silent, intimidated by the pure power displayed in those few seconds, even forgetting to breathe.

Finally, an understanding dawned...

The power known as the Sword of Disaster, just how terrifying it truly is!

Aleksey removed his priest’s garment, covering the unconscious Anna.

"Thank you for your mercy." He sincerely expressed his gratitude to the young man he passed by.

Huai Shi shook his head indifferently: "It was just a long-forgotten lesson, nothing worth gratitude. I’m not interested in teaching accidents... However, what about her soul?"

"It’s a long story." Alikexai sighed lightly.

Huai Shi did not press for more but suddenly asked: "After hanging around the mountains for a few days, my stomach can’t take it anymore, I plan to make something to eat later, do you want to join?"

Alikexai was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly.

.

.

And at the edge of the underground training ground, in a corner, two unseen figures quietly watched it all.

"...Daughter of Frost, is it?"

Luo Su gazed at the teenage girl who was sent away, recognizing the essence of that miracle.

It was the divine evolution of ’Frost Father’ once witnessed by Huai Shi, also a side aspect of that god of blizzards.

This is the path of sublimation derived from the Black God and White God.

——Heavenly Kingdom Genealogy·Path of Transformation!

"Such deep-rooted malice." He remarked in surprise, looking to his side, "Such a severe nature deviation, there can be no second possibility.

Kaja, you actually let her use that thing?"
