Getting Stronger By Chapter 358: Awkward?1

Chapter 358: Chapter 358: Awkward?_1

After all, everyone here was an outlaw from every corner of the Federation, having already mastered the art of ruthless cruelty. But since they could submit to these Martial Kings of relatively low rank, then Wang Zhan, a young man who surpassed them in ferocity, decisiveness, and ruthlessness, was even more qualified and capable!

The one thing they hadn’t anticipated was one of them exclaiming, "He’s actually a Martial King?"

"Have we really fallen so far behind because we’ve drifted away from the Federation..."

"Barely in his twenties and he’s reached this level? Who are these two? And is this the state of the Federation now?..."

Even Boss Chen was aghast. He finally understood the whole story! Wang Zhan is a Martial King?! The true combat power of a Martial King, and he’s still so young, barely looking twenty at most. This indicates that this kid’s potential is incomparably stunning. Given enough ti, his achievents in the Federation wouldn’t just be making a na for himself; he could shake the world!

Regrettably, Wang Zhan wasn’t interested in their astonishnt. Because for him, his only goal was to personally knock these old rats down, one by one!

"Hahaha..." Wang Zhan laughed wildly, his gaze resting on Chen Min’s face.

For Wang Zhan, a Grandmaster was, after all, not worth ntioning. But if he were to act aggressively at this critical mont when he was on the verge of a passive breakthrough, it would undoubtedly be extrely dangerous. That’s why, just now, he had rely killed with vital energy. Unexpectedly, he discovered an extrely important detail. Setting other things aside, as long as he didn’t use fluctuations of Essence Energy or ntal energy to kill during this awkward phase of his power, the System’s attribute bonus wouldn’t trigger, even if his opponent’s actual realm was three major realms higher! This was undoubtedly great news, and it also signified that Wang Zhan could rely on his instinctive vital energy for combat in the future. Because the martial art he had just used was from the "Ninefold Heavenly Transformation" he obtained from the Snakehead! At the sa ti, Wang Zhan also discovered that this wasn’t just a simple composite martial art; it was a massive treasure that stood above even Heavenly Martial Arts. Think about it, Wang Zhan now possessed no less than three sets of Heavenly Martial Arts. But as for techniques surpassing Heavenly Martial Arts, who had ever truly experienced one? So, that deceased Grandmaster should consider himself lucky. Even though he died by Wang Zhan’s hand, it wasn’t to a re Heavenly Martial Art, but sothing far superior. Of course, Wang Zhan knew there was no downside to the System, and attribute bonuses were absolutely beneficial. If it weren’t for his cultivation of the "General Outline of the Supre Pure Thunder," he might have already been close to the Martial King Realm by now! But that would have been a path too easy; not only would his thods be crude, but his combat techniques would also be limited to repetitive chopping. Once his realm advanced further, Wang Zhan couldn’t even dream of increasing his strength by relying on overwhelming power to inflict damage. He’d be fortunate just to survive! He wouldn’t be laughing so arrogantly as he was now.

After all, the awkward phase of his power level wasn’t the issue; lacking real strength was what’s truly shaful.

Wang Zhan declared clearly, "So what if I am a Martial King! Among those of you daring to spy on

from the shadows, which one of you isn’t a Martial King? But who dares to step up and fight ! As I said earlier, losers are losers. No matter how many of you there are, you’re still not fit for the main stage. So, you might as well cut the crap and all co at ! Hehehe. Today, I, Wang Zhan, will make you rats understand that the Federation today is no longer the Federation of your mories! If you’ve missed the boat, you’ll never catch up; you’ll forever be rats. Hahaha..."

Nearby, Yao Yao, who had been watching intently, had an utterly infatuated expression on her face. She still rembered. When they were in Chu State No.33 Middle School, Wang Zhan had been just like this. Arrogant, defiant, seemingly invincible, yet possessing an incredibly resilient spirit! As long as his enemies stood before him, he would fight. Even if he was losing, he would fight. Even if beaten into a desperate retreat, he’d still dare to turn back and fight. That was Wang Zhan. Fighting for the sake of the fight, never fearing a battle!

But Chen Min’s expression finally twisted. A flash of brutality crossed his features, his eyes, filled with malice, locked onto Wang Zhan. "You’re courting death! Kid, do you really think that with that tiny bit of ability, you can sweep through the Ming State Underground City? I’ll tell you the truth: if you kneel and beg

today, I might just clear a path for you, let you have a scrap to eat! Otherwise, we are destined for a fight to the death, and I will personally hang your corpse on the wall at the entrance of my Ming State Underground City!"

Imdiately after, those well-fed rats hiding underground finally erged. Each carried an icy aura and a savage, battle-hardened ferocity that could make one’s blood run cold at a re glance. They appeared one by one, surrounding Wang Zhan and occupying the four streets.

"Not bad, kid. Surrender! We can spare your life! Otherwise, after today, even if you die in the Ming State Underground City and your elders co knocking, we’ll make sure you understand what true lifelong regret ans!"

"Kid, it’s indeed good to be arrogant when young, because it shows you have youthful spirit. But being too arrogant is just asking to die! You ca to us for riches, right? Just concede so benefits, and what’s to stop us from sitting down for a proper discussion?"

"Boy, if you continue to hesitate, this day next year will be your death anniversary! Besides, I see you have a pretty good relationship with the woman beside you. Are you just going to stand by and watch her perish in the Ming State Underground City?..."

Wang Zhan initially didn’t respond. But now, his ntal energy instantly focused, and he gazed at the four low-rank Martial Kings before him, a sinister grin spreading across his face. It was as if he wasn’t facing his own doom, but rather the final monts these worthless curs had left in the world.

"Hehehe, a bunch of fools who don’t know their own limitations! You really thought that by hiding underground for a long ti, this world would beco yours? You’re just frogs at the bottom of a well, with a limited view of the sky. Want

to surrender? Simple enough. Let

teach you the rules of the Federation. Then you’ll understand why I’m a genius of the Federation, while you’ll forever remain its cowards! Hahaha..."

That mad, flamboyant laughter echoed underground.

Then, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Wang Zhan’s aura underwent a sudden transformation. It beca overwhelmingly powerful, domineering to the extre!

With a ROAR, before them appeared a figure clad in thick, azure armor, exuding a boiling killing intent, like a god of war incarnate!

This was the first ti Wang Zhan had unabashedly released his own aura and foundation in front of everyone. And from this mont on, Wang Zhan, who had been restraining his desire to advance for a long ti, finally decided to stop holding back and stake it all.

Of course, this did not an that Wang Zhan chose to advance blindly. Instead, he was attempting to rapidly expend his accumulated foundation and suppress the urge to advance, thereby solidifying the bedrock of his ntal energy. Because the more people there were, the greater the chance of success; as long as the consumption was fast enough, his ntal energy wouldn’t instantly overwhelm and destroy him.

Therefore, Wang Zhan even released the mad man from his domain, a being he had always kept as a hidden trump card.

In a flash, the mad man made a rare appearance. The corners of his mouth curved in what seed like a sigh of relief, filled with an endless yearning for the mortal world. Although he couldn’t enjoy the physical freedom of the past, he still took a deep breath of air and said contentedly, "Ah! This damned sll... I’m really growing to like it more and more! Hehehe..."

However, the mont the mad man appeared, the expressions of the Martial Kings present suddenly turned even grimr. They had already spotted the unusual Spiritual Energy coalescing beside Wang Zhan. Moreover, this wasn’t just pure Spiritual Energy; at least to them, individuals who had already reached the Martial King Realm, it was as if they were witnessing so unbelievable legend.

"How is this possible! A peak Martial Master! How can he possess a domain, and one that has already gained sentience at that!"

"This kid poses an even greater threat to us! If we strike, we must eradicate him completely—absolutely do not let him escape! Regardless of the powers backing him, as long as he lives, he will beco an imnse threat to us!"

Chen Min felt the sa. He was a Martial King, and a truly powerful interdiate stage Martial King at that. Yet, in his eyes, whether it was that unfathomable young Martial Master Wang Zhan or the mysterious spirit in Wang Zhan’s domain, both filled him with an undeniable sense of threat and shock. This was sothing that would have been unthinkable in the past, sothing that simply couldn’t exist. But today, Chen Min no longer doubted that the seemingly unremarkable Wang Zhan from before might actually deliver a colossal shock.

So, even though his face was grim and he had retreated dozens of paces, his expression was truly grave as he looked at Wang Zhan. Then, he solemnly transmitted his voice to the Martial Kings surrounding them, "Stop fantasizing! Regardless of this kid’s actual level, or his motives for selling fake dicine, you’ve all seen it. With his arrogant and domineering personality, there’s absolutely no foundation for sincere cooperation between us, unless you’re willing to live under soone else’s thumb! So, prepare yourselves! This battle is destined to be one to the death! Either we fall, or this kid dies..."

After all, if the Wang Zhan who previously displayed the combat power of a Martial King was sowhat threatening...

Then now...
