BANG!
Their shoulders slamd together with savage force.
Han Yuan, his body like Copper Skin and Iron Bones, unleashed a trendous burst of power. The impact shattered Bai Hao’s shoulder, sending him staggering back more than a dozen steps.
THUMP, THUMP, THUMP!
With every step Bai Hao took back, the ground beneath his feet shattered.
Han Yuan grinned and leaped into the air. His legs beca a blur of afterimages, whistling through the air as they relentlessly kicked Bai Hao in the head.
Bai Hao was kicked until he grew dizzy, his nose and mouth reduced to a bloody pulp.
He barely managed to endure until Han Yuan touched the ground.
But his opponent was already gathering power again, his left fist swinging toward Bai Hao’s head like a mountain-shattering sledgehamr.
’I’ll kill this guy with one punch!’
"Stop!"
A Demon Exterminator watching from the side suddenly blocked Bai Hao’s path, striking out with his palm!
Fist t palm.
Han Yuan instantly felt a dense Palm Force wash over him.
"You think you can stop ?!"
Han Yuan roared. The bones and sinews throughout his body seed to sing in unison, his great muscles writhing like dragons as he once again unleashed an imnse power.
The Demon Exterminator never expected Han Yuan’s Qi Power to be so imnse.
BANG!
The two were thrown back from each other.
"You’ve already won."
"There’s no need to deliver a killing blow," the Demon Exterminator said coolly.
"If I were the one losing!"
"Would you have stepped in?!"
Han Yuan’s expression turned grim. In a flash, he brandished his Cold Blade and charged his opponent.
The Demon Exterminator never expected Han Yuan would actually dare to attack him. He imdiately channeled his Palm Force and t the attack head-on.
The two instantly fell into a vicious struggle.
The fight between Han Yuan and Bai Hao had already drawn a great deal of attention.
Bai Hao’s defeat had been unexpected enough.
But for Han Yuan to now dare attack a Demon Exterminator was utterly shocking.
"That guy... is beyond arrogant!"
Having dealt with her own opponent, Huang Xian’Er looked toward Han Yuan and couldn’t help but exclaim in amazent.
"This is the Observatory, for heaven’s sake."
"That guy must have a death wish!"
"He’s just a brainless brute!"
Many different thoughts stirred in the hearts of those present.
Kong Yangyun’s luck had been fairly good; he hadn’t run into anyone from the Five Great Noble Families. After a grueling battle, he finally defeated his opponent.
Seeing Han Yuan fighting a Demon Exterminator, he was left speechless, his eyes filled with admiration.
’So this guy was this fierce all along... He completely fooled !’
BANG! BANG!
In the arena, the Demon Exterminator was still exchanging blows with Han Yuan.
He had originally thought he could finish his opponent in a dozen moves or so.
But only after they began to fight did he feel how terrifying his opponent was.
Even without any Inner Breath, the man’s physique was terrifyingly tough, and his Qi Power was abnormally ferocious.
Even though he was an entire major realm above his opponent, he could only barely manage to suppress him!
"Enough!"
The Demon Exterminator roared and thrust his palm toward Han Yuan’s chest.
The palm strike erupted with the force of a flash flood; its power was terrifying!
Han Yuan let out a low growl, his eyes wild and bloodshot.
He violently focused his Qi Power into his right leg and kicked out with lightning speed.
Kuixing Kick!
He hadn’t chosen to defend!
BOOM!
Han Yuan took the heavy palm strike. Despite his Copper Skin and Iron Bones, he felt a massive shockwave slam into his internal organs. He spat out a bloody mist and was sent flying more than ten ters.
anwhile, the Demon Exterminator’s jaw was shattered by Han Yuan’s kick, and he was also sent flying backward.
By all appearances, both sides were grievously wounded.
「For a mont.」
The other Demon Exterminators present didn’t know how to handle the situation and could only watch on coldly from the sidelines.
They all knew that Du Qiuxu and the others were watching from a distance.
How could they dare act before those important figures had spoken?
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Coughing up blood, Han Yuan slowly climbed to his feet.
The Demon Exterminator also got to his feet, his face a mask of ferocity.
"Demon Exterminators... Nothing special."
Han Yuan grinned.
"You... damn... you..."
The Demon Exterminator’s jaw was shattered, making it difficult for him to speak.
"Enough!"
Just then, several figures descended from the sky, landing between the two n.
It was Du Qiuxu, Huang Ren, Bai Qi, and their contingent.
"Han Yuan, you have committed an act of insubordination, attacking a Demon Exterminator without authorization."
"Your results in this assessnt are hereby void."
Bai Qi, completely shaless, was already intent on stripping Han Yuan of his spot.
"He struck first."
"The Observatory’s assessnt is a matter of life and death, where fate is decided. Not even Demon Exterminators are allowed to interfere."
"Tell , where was I wrong?"
Han Yuan t Bai Qi’s gaze, his voice cold.
"Heaven itself has a virtuous love for life... Since you had already won, you should not have resorted to a killing blow."
Bai Qi said coolly.
"What a joke."
"Then why didn’t you shout when Bai Hao was about to beat soone to death a mont ago?"
"You want to be a whore while demanding a morial to your chastity."
"Perhaps I should have a chastity arch built for you soday."
Han Yuan sneered.
"You!"
Bai Qi was genuinely infuriated by Han Yuan’s words.
But at that mont, Du Qiuxu turned to the Demon Exterminator. "Why did you interfere?"
"According to Observatory rules, Demon Exterminators cannot interfere in the assessnt."
For a mont, the Demon Exterminator was speechless.
His na was Bai Liang.
As a mber of the Bai Family, he couldn’t just stand by and watch Bai Hao be killed.
"Oh, I forgot."
"You’re also a Bai."
Du Qiuxu said, feigning a sudden realization.
He narrowed his eyes at Bai Qi. "Vice Supervisor Bai, since when have the rules of your Bai Family beco more important than the rules of the Observatory?"
"Maybe we should just rena the Observatory the Bai Family headquarters from now on?"
Hearing this, Bai Qi imdiately realized what was happening.
But for Bai Hao’s future, he steeled himself and said, "Supervisor Du, it was indeed wrong for Bai Liang to interfere and break the rules."
"How about we just let both of them into the Observatory?"
Han Yuan sneered inwardly. Though he didn’t recognize Bai Qi, he could tell from the man’s tone. ’That kid must have a close relationship with him.’
Imdiately, Han Yuan spoke up. "How about we just fight again?"
Du Qiuxu smiled as well. "Vice Director Bai, what do you think of this suggestion?"
Bai Qi was inwardly furious.
Judging by Han Yuan’s performance, Bai Hao could fight him a hundred more tis and still lose.
He shot Han Yuan a cold glare and said, "I will defer to the Supervisor’s arrangents."
"This match counts as Han Yuan’s victory."
"Bai Liang, you interfered without authorization and broke the rules."
"Go back to where you ca from."
Du Qiuxu said coolly.
His words were a clear dismissal, kicking Bai Liang back to the Bai Family.
The color drained from Bai Liang’s face.
But Bai Qi signaled for him to remain silent.
Left with no choice, Bai Liang could only clasp his fist in salute and accept the order.
And so, the farce ca to an end.
However, the na Han Yuan now echoed throughout the Observatory.
「Soon.」
Soone led Han Yuan to a dical hall within the Observatory to have his injuries treated and his wounds bandaged.
Afterward, he was assigned his living quarters.
The accommodations at the Observatory were indeed excellent.
Han Yuan was assigned to a private, tranquil courtyard.
Every day, designated staff brought him his als and cleaned the premises.
Han Yuan sat in the courtyard, reflecting on the day’s events.
’It seems the Observatory is also rife with factions and severe infighting.’
’That old saying is true after all: wherever there are people, there is a Martial World.’
Just then, a visitor arrived.
"Han Yuan, you certainly made a na for yourself today."
Duan Xu walked in, carrying two jars of wine.
"I would have preferred to keep to myself."
"But so people just had to co and provoke , so I had no choice but to act."
"No one can stand in my way."
Han Yuan said coolly.
