Chapter 3513: Killing a Five Star God of War With Just a Strike

“Tang San Pao!” Zhou Yong Qi glared at Tang San Pao and said in a deep voice, “If you need to blame something, you can only blame the fact that you’re friends with Duan Ling Tian. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have challenged you; I would’ve challenged Zhong Gui Yu instead.”

Zhou Yong Qi did not bother to lower his voice. He wanted everyone to know he had challenged Tang San Pao because he hated Duan Ling Tian. Perhaps, he thought the words could hide his fear of Duan Ling Tian.

Alas, the crowd was not stupid. They easily saw through his intention.

“Trash,” Tang San Pao said clearly and slowly.

Zhou Yong Qi’s expression changed drastically as anger surged in his heart.

Without waiting for Zhou Yong Qi’s reply, Tang San Pao continued to say, “The person who humiliated your master is Duan Ling Tian’s master, not mine. You’re too cowardly to challenge Duan Ling Tian so you’re trying to vent your anger on me instead? Zhou Yong Qi, do you really think I’m an easy target?”

Tang San Pao continued to say with a mocking smile on his face, “Do your best, and don’t hold back. I’ll only attack one. If you survive my attack, I’ll admit defeat.”

As soon as Tang San Pao finished speaking, Xu Kong Hai, the Vice Temple Master of the main Title Temple, frowned slightly. However, when he saw the determined expression on Tang Sang Pao’s face, he only sighed inwardly. Previously, he had tried to dissuade Tang San Pao from killing Zhou Yong Qi when he learned of Tang San Pao’s intention. There was no need for Tang San Pao to kill Zhou Yong Qi at all; all Tang San Pao had to do was defeat Zhou Yong Qi. Apart from that, although the Title Temple was not afraid of the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven, there was no need to make enemies unnecessarily. However, seeing how adamant Tang San Pao was, he knew would not be able to convince Tang San Pao otherwise.

“What did you say? You’re going to kill me with one move?” Zhou Yong Qi was shocked by Tang San Pao’s words. He began to size Tang San Pao up as wariness began to rise in his heart. He began to wonder if he had underestimated Tang San Pao.

No matter what, Zhou Yong Qi was as strong as a Five Star God of War. Even Duan Ling Tian, Ling Jue Yun, and Huang Quan An would find it difficult to kill him with just a move, and yet, Tang San Pao dared to make such a bold claim.

At the same time, Zhou Bing Qu, Zhou Yong Qi’s master and the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven, who was seated in one of the floating islands looked at Tang San Pao with a frown on his face. Was Tang San Pao not afraid that he would have to eat his words? After all, with his true disciple’s strength, one had to at least be as strong as a Six Star God of War to kill his true disciple with just one strike.

After a moment, a thought appeared in his mind; could Tang San Pao be as strong as a Six Star God of War? He hurriedly said through Voice Transmission, “Qi’er, this matter involves your life and death, you mustn’t take it lightly. It doesn’t seem like Tang San Pao is boasting. He seems so friendly when he’s with Duan Ling Tian, but now, he seems like a completely different person…”

After the incident with Feng Qing Yang, Zhou Bing Wu began to pay attention to Duan Ling Tian. The more he observed Duan Ling Tian, the more shocked he was. He did not expect Duan Ling Tian to be stronger than his true disciple. Out of all his true disciples, Zhou Yong Qi was the most talented. This was also the reason he stopped accepting true disciples after accepting Zhou Yong Qi. He had been very proud when Zhou Yong Qi revealed himself to be as strong as a Five Star God of War during the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses. He had thought Zhou Yong Qi would be able to easily defeat Feng Qing Yang’s disciple. Alas, he learned later that his true disciple was no match for Feng Qing Yang’s true disciple.

Zhou Bing Wu had always been a cautious person. He did not dare to jump to conclusions immediately about Tang San Pao. Hence, in the end, he decided to let his disciple make the decision. “You decide for yourself.”

Zhou Yong Qi swiftly replied to his master through Voice Transmission, “Master, he’s incapable of killing me with just a strike unless he’s as strong as a Six Star God of War. The possibility of someone at our age possessing the strength of a Six Star God of War is too small. Moreover, didn’t you say the chances of a participant with the strength of a Six Star God of War appearing in the Battle of the Geniuses are extremely slim? Perhaps, only one would appear once in every 100 Battles of Geniuses…”

Zhou Yong Qi continued to say through gritted teeth, “I have to fight him. If I surrender without fighting, I’ll be thoroughly humiliated. At that time, how am I supposed to stand tall in the Equally Prosperous Heaven or the other Devata Realms?”

Zhou Yong Qi could clearly imagine the repercussions if he surrendered without a fight. It would be fine if Tang San Pao was proven to be as strong as a Six Star God of War. With that, most people would understand why he backed out and might even praise him for knowing when to retreat. However, if Tang San Pao was proven not to possess the strength of a Six Star God of War, he would become a laughingstock. Even the people from the Equally Prosperous Heaven would laugh at him; this was unacceptable to him. In his opinion, it was more likely that Tang San Pao was not as strong as a Six Star God of War.

“Tang San Pao, you’re really good at boasting!” Zhou Yong Qi grew fearless once he had made up his mind. He said coldly, “I’d like to see how you’re going to kill me with a strike. Remember your words: if you can’t kill me with one strike, you’ll lose this match.”

Upon hearing these words, the corners of Xu Kong Hai’s lips twitched slightly. He knew Zhou Yong Qi would definitely die today. If he had surrendered, he would have been able to live. Since he had decided to fight, there was no doubt his Junior Nephew, Tang San Pao, would kill him.

“Don’t worry. I’ll keep my words,” Tang San Pao said indifferently.

The young geniuses were shocked by these words.

“Tang San Pao is serious about this?”

“It’s impossible for him to kill Zhou Yong Qi with just one strike, right?”

“Unless he’s as strong as a Six Star God of War…”

…

At the same time, Ding Fu, the Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval Heaven, looked at Tang San Pao and shook his head. “Tang San Pao is too confident. I’m afraid he’ll lose this match…”

“Not necessarily,” Feng Qing Yang, who was seated next to Ding Fu, said. At this time, he had already found out from his disciple that Tang San Pao was the Title Temple’s hidden ace. Most importantly, he had long suspected the Title Temple’s hidden ace to be as strong as a Six Star God of War.

“Take your shot, Tang San Pao,” Zhou Yong Qi said. Then, his Celestial Origin Energy surged from his body as he imbued it with all the profundities from the law he had comprehended to strengthen his defense. At the same time, a silhouette appeared near the Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon in his hand.

Everyone was shocked by Zhou Yong Qi’s weapon that contained a weapon spirit. It was his first time using his weapon after all. His previous opponents were not strong enough to warrant him using the weapon. After thinking about it further, they thought it was only natural he possessed an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon with a weapon spirit. He was the true disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven after all.

Zhou Yong Qi did not hold back at all. Not only did he cast all the techniques he knew, but he had also brought out his weapon.

“It seems like Tang San Pao’s words affected him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone all out…”

“Isn’t that obvious?”

“This Tang San Pao is really good at talking. However, he only made things difficult for himself since Zhou Yong Qi isn’t holding back anymore because of his words.”

Many people shook their heads. They thought Tang San Pao was exaggerating.

In the battle ring.

Tang San Pao remained indifferent. While Zhou Yong Qi charged at him fiercely, he leisurely brought a glove out from his Spatial Ring before putting it on his right hand. The glove was black and seemed to glow with a green sheen.

When Zhou Yong Qi was only a few meters away, Tang San Pao was finally done putting on his clothes.

Contrary to Tang San Pao’s leisurely attitude, the crowd felt nervous on his behalf. When Zhou Yong Qi’s attack was about to land, many people thought it was over for Tang San Pao.

All of a sudden, Tang San Pao lifted his gloved hand and pointed at Zhou Yong Qi.

Swoosh!

A streak of light shot out from his finger toward Zhou Yong Qi.

The crowd did not think much of Tang San Pao’s attack. After all, it was not as dazzling as Zhou Yong Qi’s attack.

Everyone watched as the streak of light that was just the size of a finger a moment ago suddenly enlarged into a monstrous and fiery beam of light.

Boom!

A thunderous explosion rang in the air as Tang San Pao shattered Zhou Yong Qi’s attack.

“No!” A sharp cry rang in the air. Pain, despair, and regret could be clearly heard in Zhou Yong Qi’s voice.

Boom!

A fiery beam of light that flashed with lightning pierced Zhou Yong Qi.

Swoosh!

The beam of light only vanished when Tang San Pao put his hand down.
