Chapter 29

“This monster’s self-healing ability is too strong. I can’t cause damage to it!”

Li Qingshi clutched her chest and coughed up another mouthful of blood.

“Could this mutant… Evolved to the Awakening Realm?”

Shi Meng returned to Chu Zhou and the others and said with a serious expression.

He felt that all the bones in his body were about to shatter after being slapped by the mutant just now.

“Impossible… You probably wouldn’t have the chance to talk to me now if it was at Awakening Realm.”

Ling Zhan glanced at Shi Meng and said lightly.

Shi Meng: “…”

“Awakening Realm, it might not be yet… but I think it’s possible to describe it as quasi-Awakening Realm.”

Chu Zhou said with a serious expression.

At this moment, Ling Zhan glanced at Shi Meng and Li Qingshi.

“The three of us haven’t worked together for a long time… Today, we’ll work together to destroy this mutant in front of us.”

“Attack!”

He suddenly stomped hard on the ground and his figure instantly flew out after saying that.

“Hahaha, Chu Zhou, open your eyes wide and take a look at the combined power of the Three Monsters of First High School!”

Shi Meng became excited, as if he had forgotten the pain on his body. His burly body emitted the aura of a wild beast.

With a boom, he rushed out like a cannonball.

“That’s right! It’s been a long time since the three of us joined forces to fight an enemy!”

A trace of confidence appeared in Li Qingshi’s eyes. With a swish, she turned into an afterimage and caught up to Ling Zhan and Shi Meng.

“I can finally see the Three Monsters of First High team up.”

Liu Qianqian said to Chu Zhou excitedly.

“Chu Zhou, you might not have heard. The most shocking thing about the Three Monsters of the First High School is the power of their combined forces.”

“A teacher from the First High School once revealed that each of the Three Monsters might just be geniuses from a satellite city like Jiang City… But there’s still a huge gap compared to those geniuses who are famous in Guangdong City, the entire country, and the world…”

“…But if the three monsters join forces, there will be a huge qualitative leap. The power of their team will not be inferior to a team formed by three famous geniuses…”

“Is that so? Then I’ll study the power of the three of them working together!” Chu Zhou’s eyes revealed a trace of anticipation.

At this moment, Ling Zhan and the other two had already rushed in front of the mutant.

“Roar!!!”

The huge mutant roared ferociously when it saw Ling Zhan and the other two charging over.

It suddenly waved a huge claw at Ling Zhan and the other two.

Even though this mutant was huge, its attack speed was actually very fast.

In the blink of an eye, the terrifying and ferocious claw appeared in front of Ling Zhan and the other two.

“I’ll do it!”

Ling Zhan shouted and the alloy sword in his hand stabbed out like lightning.

The speed of the sword was so fast that it was difficult to see with the naked eye.

Streaks of sword shadows remained in the void like a forest of swords, crashing towards the giant claw.

Pu! Pu! Pu! Pu!

In an instant, dozens of bloody holes appeared on the giant claw and arm.

The speed of his entire arm also slowed down.

Ling Zhan easily dodged the giant claw that had slowed down.

“Hahaha, it’s my turn!”

Shi Meng laughed wildly and instantly used the Nine Fold Tremor Punch. Moreover, he punched nine times in a row.

However—

He did not attack the mutant directly.

Instead, all nine punches landed on the ground.

Boom boom boom…

It was as if nine bombs had exploded. The ground within a dozen meters exploded.

The ground shook and dust flew.

The ground collapsed, forming a huge pit with a radius of two to three meters and a depth of four meters.

The mutant was caught off guard and fell into the huge pit.

Only the upper body above the chest was left visible.

“An opening!”

Ling Zhan and Li Qingshi’s eyes lit up as they seized the opportunity to attack the mutant’s upper body.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Sword light flashed.

The dagger left many afterimages.

In the blink of an eye, Ling Zhan and Li Qingshi had left hundreds of wounds on the mutated body.

Many of the wounds were so deep that bones could be seen.

Fresh blood gushed out from the wounds on the mutant’s body, dyeing its upper body red.

“Die!”

In the end, Shi Meng added another critical hit. His entire body leaped up like a ferocious beast. He then dived head first, sending his fists attacking like a flood dragon, smashing heavily into the mutant’s head.

The mutant was blasted into the ground with a loud bang.

“Hmph, could it still be alive!”

Shi Meng leaped to the edge of the huge pit and knelt on one knee, looking at the huge pit proudly.

He had been sent flying by this mutant with a slap just now. He was very aggrieved.

He had finally taken revenge.

“He should be dead!”

Ling Zhan and Li Qingshi also thought that it was impossible for the mutant to survive after being injured by them.

“The coordination of these three people is indeed amazing. Their timing is very precise.”

Chu Zhou sighed.

Just then, a bloody and ferocious hand suddenly broke out of the edge of the huge pit with a loud bang.

BANG!

Shi Meng was sent flying again.

He screamed and crashed into a building not far away like a meteor.

“Sh*t!”

Ling Zhan and Li Qingshi’s expressions changed drastically as they hurriedly retreated.

“Roar!!!”

At this moment, an angry roar came from the bottom of the huge pit.

Then, a bloody behemoth jumped out.

It was as fast as an afterimage and caught up to Li Qingshi and Ling Zhan almost instantly.

A sharp claw that was as fast as lightning grabbed at Li Qingshi’s head.

“Sh*t!”

Li Qingshi’s face was pale. She felt that she could not dodge anymore and might die here.

Chu Zhou, Liu Qianqian, and dozens of students were startled upon seeing this.

At the critical moment, Ling Zhan’s expression turned cold. He suddenly soared into the sky and flew above the mutant before diving down.

“Rainstorm Sword Technique!”

He shouted and the alloy battle sword in his hand stabbed out like a storm. He had stabbed out hundreds of times within an instant.

Sword shadows rained down on the mutated creature.

Pu pu pu…

Sword shadows crisscrossed and pierced through the mutant’s hands, feet, torso, and other parts. The mutant looked like it had become a porcupine.

Fresh blood spurted out of the mutant’s body.

The mutant suddenly stopped.

Li Qingshi looked at the giant claw above her head and heaved a sigh of relief. She flew away and quickly retreated ten meters away.

“This is a Perfection Realm sword technique that’s close to the Intent Realm!”

Chu Zhou’s expression changed slightly. He could discern the realm of Ling Zhan’s sword technique.

Even though he had cultivated his Sharp Blade Kick to Perfection Realm and his Curved Hand Blade to the Intent Realm…

However, he clearly knew how difficult it was to cultivate a combat technique to Perfection Realm.

He advanced so smoothly only because he had the help of the Attribute Board.

He might not be able to reach the Perfection Realm even if he trained hard for decades without the Attribute Board.

Ling Zhan cultivated the Rainstorm Sword Technique to the Perfection Realm and was close to breaking through to the Intent Realm by himself.

This meant that Ling Zhan was a true genius.

“The monster should be dead this time!”

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief seeing the mutant that Ling Zhan had almost dismembered.

Ling Zhan panted heavily as he looked nervously at the mutant whose body was riddled with countless bloody holes.

That move just now had consumed most of his strength.

He did not have much strength left.

He only hoped that he had already killed the mutant.

But…

The mutant that had stopped suddenly moved again.

It was so fast that many people had yet to see how it attacked and Ling Zhan was sent flying like a cannonball while spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Chu Zhou’s figure flashed and caught Ling Zhan.

“Ling Zhan, are you alright?” Chu Zhou asked.

“I’m fine… I won’t die yet!” Ling Zhan said as he spat out a few more mouthfuls of blood.

“This… This monster’s self-healing ability is too strong. You have to kill him with one strike…”

“I don’t have the strength to fight anymore. It all depends on you now.”

Ling Zhan said with a bitter smile. He did not even have the strength to stand up and was almost paralyzed.

Li Qingshi hurriedly came over to support him after seeing this scene.

“One strike?”

“I know what to do now!”

Chu Zhou muttered to himself and walked towards the mutant step by step.

“Roar!!!”

The mutant was infuriated after being severely injured by Ling Zhan and the others.

It roared angrily. Its two arms, which were as thick as buckets, kept hammering the ground, causing large areas of the ground to explode.

It vented its anger.

Looking at the huge mutant that kept waving its arms, and then at Chu Zhou who was slowly enveloped by the shadow of the mutant…

Everyone’s heartstrings tightened.

Their lives would be decided by this battle.

They would live if Chu Zhou wins!

They would die if Chu Zhou lost!

“One strike?”

“One strike it is!”

Chu Zhou raised his head and stared seriously at the huge mutant opposite him. Then, he stomped on the ground heavily and rushed towards the mutant like a cannonball.

“Roar!!!”

The mutated creature roared and opened its huge mouth full of sharp teeth to bite Chu Zhou when it saw that there were still “insects” that dared to attack it.

At the same time, its two stone pillar-like arms violently swept toward Chu Zhou.

It could be foreseen that the outcome would be very serious no matter whether Chu Zhou was bitten by the mutant or swept by its two huge arms…

He might even lose his life instantly.

However, the more dangerous the situation was, the calmer Chu Zhou became.

His feet suddenly exerted the force of his Sharp Blade Kick, and his speed increased explosively.

Left bend!

Right turn!

Diagonal jump!

Charge!

He dodged all the attacks of the mutant with a small section of “showy movement” and rushed in front of it.

Then, he attacked with his hand!

No!

He did not only attack with his hand.

He also attacked with his leg!

Intent Realm Curved Hand Blade!

Perfection Realm Sharp Blade Kick!

They were ignited at the same time.

His hands and feet turned into knives that slashed at the mutated creature’s neck.

“Even an Intent Realm Curved Hand Blade might not be able to cut off the mutant’s head in a single attack…”

“All the attacks must overlap. Only then can the power of the slash reach its strongest.”

At this moment, Chu Zhou’s mind was unprecedentedly calm.

His hands and feet drew beautiful arcs. The arcs of his hands and feet actually overlapped perfectly.

In the end, the two overlapping arcs overlapped again.

He seemed to have slashed countless times, but also seemed to have only slashed once.

Finally, a blade-like arc cut across the mutant’s neck.

The mutant’s entire body suddenly stiffened, and its ferocious head fell.

Then, a fountain of blood shot into the sky from the mutant’s neck.

“What a stunning slash!”

“There’s no need to continue my duel with him!”

“I’ve lost!”

A dazed Ling Zhan muttered to himself, looking at Chu Zhou who had beheaded the mutant.
