[Release the Savage Body Seal; Second Step]

Boooooooom!!!

Huh?

"This energy is beyond the threshold!!!"

When Mou-Chen used the unseal skill once more, his energy level skyrocketed several notches. The original energy level at the third level of the Heavenly Foundation Building stage was now the ninth level. And there was no sign that it would stop increasing, which was beyond the standard for maneuvering in the outer disciple's arena.

"Outer Disciple Mou-Chen, are you hiding your true energy level? Doing this is against the outer disciple maneuver rules, you know?" Seeing this, the referee immediately jumped up and stood between Zheng-Fu and Mou-Chen, questioning Mou-Chen's true energy level because his energy level now was too high to be in the maneuver.

Ha ha ha!

"Master, how did I break the rules? All disciples have had their energy verified before, and you know well that the academy's energy monitor is absolutely infallible. The fact that I have such a high energy level is because of my secret skill. I didn't have such a high energy level in the first place. So how are you going to accuse me of breaking the rules of the maneuver?"

Mou-Chen replied with a sly smile at the corner of his mouth. The words the young man said were all true, so the referee did not dare to argue. It was definitely true that before the disciples could join the maneuver, everyone had been checked and verified. And the energy monitoring tool was a high-end device that had never made any mistakes before.

Ah!

"Did you see, Master? As such, it means that I've not violated the rules of the maneuver in any way. But if my opponent doesn't dare to fight, he can raise his hand to surrender—just that!" Mou-Chen continued to speak confidently because he had already planned for this situation.

"Never mind, Elder! It would be impossible for the detection device to actually fail, as he said, so this maneuver must continue until either side is defeated or loses consciousness!" Zheng-Fu stepped forward and said to the referee. He knew the upcoming battle would be extremely difficult, but Zheng-Fu still chose to fight.

'This is too weird! Why does his energy level rise even though he already released a large amount of it once? Could it be that this guy's actual energy level is not at this stage?' Zheng-Fu tried to guess the reason why Mou-Chen was able to increase his energy level so dramatically. He was analyzing whether the other party had hidden energy or simply raised his energy level.

Yaaaaah!!!

Booooooom!!!

"This is too crazy! Mou-Chen's energy has already exceeded the Heavenly Foundation Building stage. How can the man named Zheng-Fu fight this bastard?"

"Whether he'll be able to do it, I don't know! But now that party doesn't break the rules, so it all depends on Zheng-Fu's abilities!"

"I think Zheng-Fu will lose this time!"

After the second unsealing process ended, Mou-Chen's energy level stopped increasing at the late first level of the Heavenly Golden Core stage.

"I'll give you another chance to surrender and agree to serve me. If you do as I tell you, I guarantee that—"

"Don't talk too much and waste our time! If you want to make me give up, defeat me first!" Zheng-Fu was tired of listening to Mou-Chen's words. He wanted to try fighting against someone in the Heavenly Golden Core stage and test their strength.

Huh!

"Rejected a good chance, huh? Well, I'll provide it according to your request!"

[Savage Wave Wrecking Earth Stance Skill]

Groooooan!!!

"Mou-Chen! This is just a maneuver. Why are you using your energy to the fullest? You're planning to kill the other party!?" When the referee saw that Mou-Chen used excessive energy for a normal maneuver, he rushed to block both of them immediately.

"Elder, I don't intend to kill him. I only provided it according to his request. If you don't believe me, you can ask him if he consents or not," Mou-Chen immediately stopped his stance and spoke with a sly smile at the corner of his mouth.

"That's right, Elder. I'm willing to cope with his attack myself. You don't have to stop him!" Zheng-Fu said as he stepped to the side of the referee.

"You!!? You know that if something goes wrong, you might die!? If so, I'll definitely be punished by the elders. Unless the two of you must speak out to agree to a fatal maneuver!" The referee was not afraid of Zheng-Fu dying; he was afraid of being punished. So he decided to let Zheng-Fu and Mou-Chen formally agree to accept the fatal maneuver first.

"I agree! I have no problem. It's up to you whether you dare or not!" Mou-Chen immediately replied that he accepted the fatal maneuver.

"I also agree! The maneuver this time, no matter who dies, no one will be at fault!" Zheng-Fu accepted the fatal maneuver as well. He did not hesitate to say yes at all.

"If so, it's all agreed! I'd like to declare that your maneuver this time will be a fatal maneuver. No matter which side dies, there will be no penalties for anyone. However, if either party says surrender, this maneuver will be considered final immediately!"

When both agreed, the referee felt much more at ease. But even if it was a fatal maneuver, there was still a rule allowing either side to surrender if they wished.

News that the two would engage in a fatal maneuver spread quickly throughout the outer disciples' and inner disciples' maneuver arenas. It caused many disciples to rush to watch this match. Everyone wanted to know why the two had agreed to such a dangerous contest.

"What happened? Why did they agree to a fatal maneuver?"

"I don't know. Suddenly, they asked for a fatal maneuver."

"Isn't that Mou-Chen!? Why does he have such a high energy level!? Isn't that energy level against the outer disciple maneuver rules?"

"At first, I thought it was against the rules. But when he explained, it wasn't wrong."

"The energy levels are so different. Can the young man Zheng-Fu even fight?"

Many questions arose from curiosity, both about Mou-Chen's unexpectedly high energy level and why the two had chosen to engage in a fatal maneuver.

"Junior Brother Zheng-Fu! What are you thinking? Why did you agree to such a fatal maneuver?" Jiang-Long rushed to Zheng-Fu's maneuver arena after finishing his own, having heard that Zheng-Fu's opponent had an energy level exceeding the Heavenly Foundation Building stage.

"This is no longer a joke. If the opponent has energy at the Heavenly Golden Core stage, Younger Brother Zheng-Fu can't fight for sure! Brother Jiang-Long, I think you should stop Younger Brother Zheng-Fu!" Even Ye-Liu rushed to the arena upon hearing the news. When he arrived, he approached Jiang-Long and urged him to stop Zheng-Fu immediately.

"I can't do that, Senior Brother Ye-Liu! I know Zheng-Fu won't give up. It's in his character to enjoy challenges like this. I think he won't stop until he can't fight anymore!" Jiang-Long shook his head at Ye-Liu's suggestion because he knew Zheng-Fu would never say the word "surrender."

Ah!

"So, what should we do!!? If something happens to Younger Brother Zheng-Fu, I won't let Mou-Chen go!" Ye-Liu was both impatient and worried. He wanted Zheng-Fu to surrender because the energy gap between the two was too vast. However, after hearing Jiang-Long's explanation of Zheng-Fu's stubbornness and love for challenges, Ye-Liu was left speechless. He could only threaten Mou-Chen in case the young man harmed Zheng-Fu too severely.

At a tall tower where high-ranking elders were gathered…

"What!!? The outer disciples are fighting under a Fatal Maneuver agreement? And who are the disciples agreeing to this?" The voice of a middle-aged man with a familiar face spoke up, and this middle-aged man was none other than Elder Min-Hou himself.

"They're outer disciples named Mou-Chen and Zheng-Fu, sir, Master Min-Hou!" replied another middle-aged man with lower seniority.

Huh?!

"What are you saying? Outer Disciple Zheng-Fu? Oh, no! This isn't good!" Master Min-Hou's eyes widened angrily as he realized one of the combatants was Zheng-Fu. He immediately flew toward Zheng-Fu's maneuver arena.

Whoosh!!!

Came back to maneuver arena number ten…

"Prepare yourself well to take my attacking stance!"

[Savage Wave Wrecking Earth Stance Skill]

Groooaaan!!!

The moment Mou-Chen performed his Savage Wave Wrecking Earth Stance Skill, the maneuver arena, which was built from extremely durable ancient stone, cracked instantly. A massive amount of energy was emitted, forcing Zheng-Fu to retreat several steps.

Ah!

'What a strong energy wave! Is this the strength of a Heavenly Golden Core stage cultivator? If it weren't for my defensive skills, I'd probably be meeting the god of Death by now!' Zheng-Fu had already realized the Heavenly Golden Core stage's power should not be underestimated. Though unsure if he could withstand the attack, he was eager to try.

"Come on! I'm curious how strong this dog poop wave is this time!"

[Immortal Golden Bell Qi Armor Skill]

[Golden Arahant Body Skill]

[Holy Light Shield Skill]

Whoooooooosh!!!

Bong!!!!!

Wink!!! Wink!!!

After speaking, Zheng-Fu used his strongest defensive skills. Two were Immortal Level skills, while the Holy Light Shield was an advanced Legendary Skill with durability and strength comparable to an initial Immortal defensive skill. Zheng-Fu combined it with the other two skills for maximum defense.

Ha ha ha!!!

"Use everything you've got! Whatever you have, throw it all in! Because today, I'll destroy all your proud skills with my hands!" Mou-Chen laughed maniacally upon seeing Zheng-Fu deploy three defensive skills. He was confident his savage waves would overpower them.

Yaaaaaaak!!!

Boooooooom!!!

Bong!!!

Creeek!!! Creeek!!! Craaash!!!

The Holy Light Shield was the first to shatter as the savage wave struck within moments. After breaking through the shield, the savage wave showed no signs of stopping or weakening, continuing its assault on the Golden Bell Qi Armor.

Groooaaaan!!!

Bong!!!!!

Bang!!

Argh!!!
