The Creatures That We Are

Chapter 803: Strongest Fighter

In the pit, two figures clashed and grappled at high speed, leaving energy trails like clashing golden light, moving between the ground, sky, and rocky walls. One of the lights flickered on and off at high frequency. That was Gao Yang with Teleportation, obviously moving faster than Azure Dragon.

Nonetheless, Gao Yang had been dodging nonstop rather than making a proactive move. Azure Dragon chased after him, but was always one step slower.

Qing Ling and Can were going to help, but they realized that there was nothing they could do. Compared to the two strongest physical fighters, they were as slow as a snail.

“Hide and wait for our chance,” Qing Ling whispered.

“Okay!” Can put her hand on Qing Ling’s shoulder. They went invisible.

The two golden lights were still in a scuffle at high speed. At the fourth second, Gao Yang finally found an opening while dodging. Teleporting a minuscule distance, he dodged Azure Dragon’s punch while swinging his fist, hitting Azure Dragon in the left cheek.

Bam!

Azure Dragon saw stars. His jaw almost popped out of his joints. And the force of the punch threatened to squeeze his eyeballs out of his eye sockets—how long had it been since the last time Azure Dragon got hit with such a powerful punch?

Wincing, Azure Dragon pushed most of his energy to his head, offsetting the lingering power of Gao Yang’s punch.

Gao Yang started. He had thought the punch would throw Azure Dragon off his feet, but it only knocked the man’s head to the side, and Azure Dragon quickly turned back in 0.1 seconds.

At lightning speed, Azure Dragon seized Gao Yang’s forearm and restrained his elbow with the other hand, trying to break Gao Yang’s arm.

Gao Yang didn’t give him a chance. He kicked Azure Dragon hard in the lower abdomen.

Azure Dragon pushed his hands down to lock Gao Yang’s calves instead, turning around and hurling him. Whoosh

A split second later, Azure Dragon shot through the scattering broken stones and punched Gao Yang in the chest.

Gao Yang threw up blood as the energy barrier on him shattered into pieces with a clink. The crater put into the wall increased ten times in size instantly, the spiderwebs of cracks expanding.

Bam!

A second later, the cracks snaked further, and the wall shattered into tens of thousands of splattering pieces.

Azure Dragon started. The impact didn’t feel right. It was a double!

Where’s the real one? Up there? Back there? Neither...

Azure Dragon’s head jerked down. The real Gao Yang was crouching by his feet.

After getting thrown off his feet, Gao Yang knew that Azure Dragon wouldn’t let the chance to make a follow-up attack go. Thus, Gao Yang conjured a double and swapped with it. He even put energy armor on the double instead so that it would fool Azure Dragon for a second longer.

At the same time, to ensure he could outpace Azure Dragon’s reflex, Gao Yang had conjured the double with only half his width between them. Thus, when Azure Dragon hit the double and realized that the real Gao Yang was at his feet, he didn’t have any time to react.

Bam!

Gao Yang made a right upper hook at Azure Dragon’s chin. Azure Dragon flew up into the air, the great concussion prevented him from making a countermove in the short term.

With a strong leap, Gao Yang chased after Azure Dragon with a teleport, knee slamming into Azure Dragon’s abdomen.

Azure Dragon curled into himself and flew up again.

The counterforce sent Gao Yang plunging. His double, which hadn’t been completely damaged, jumped at the same time to act as his stepping stone for a second.

Stomping on the shoulders of his double, Gao Yang made a full-power leap and teleported once more.

Bam! Gao Yang chased after Azure Dragon in a flash of golden light and punched him in the chest.

The two figures intersected and flew out of the deep pit, reaching the night sky above the desert until they were at the height of the full moon. Their silhouettes looked fierce against the moonlight.

The punch in the chest made Azure Dragon throw up blood.

However, the tremendous pain allowed him the clarity to recover control over his body, and with his years of battle experience, Azure Dragon shot out his hands like lightning and seized Gao Yang’s wrists, preventing the cunning and fierce rabbit from leaping away.

Gao Yang started. He saw a determination to ensure mutual destruction in Azure Dragon’s bloodshot eyes.

“Ugh!!”

Azure Dragon slammed Gao Yang’s forehead with his.

Clang!

In the night sky, a blinding golden light rippled. Like a golden shooting star, Gao Yang plunged into the deep pit under the desert.

In two seconds, Gao Yang fell to the very bottom of the pit and slammed into the ground, creating a small crater. Gao Yang threw up blood like Azure Dragon had done. His eyes were bloodshot, and the energy shield he had conjured on his head last second shattered. The golden armor he put on himself was close to breaking, too.

He didn’t have the time to restore it. He didn’t even have the time to calm his breath. With a flip, he got back to his feet and teleported.

Half a second later, Azure Dragon descended from above and punched the ground where Gao Yang had landed.

The ground quickly shattered like the epicenter of a great earthquake. The several-meter-thick ground protruded and sank like rolling waves in the shape of a horizontal S, rippling outward and cracking in all directions. Countless rays of golden energy shot through the cracks. Broken stones and soil scattered.

If the punch had hit Gao Yang, he would’ve broken into pieces.

Swoosh.

Gao Yang, who had just teleported away, returned at an unusual speed in 0.2 seconds.

The energy barrier armoring him was no more—Gao Yang had retracted all his energy the moment he dodged Azure Dragon’s punch, damaging the energy route in his body to temporarily break the cooldown limit of Teleportation for true consecutive uses of the Talent.

It was a gamble. If Gao Yang bet wrong, he would die. But he had no choice. He was running out of time with Willful Power.

Bam!

Azure Dragon hadn’t had the chance to recover after hitting the ground. Gao Yang’s fist was already hitting Azure Dragon’s back. Weak Point activated—seven times the power!

Azure Dragon flew away.

Azure Dragon had pushed his reflex to the limit and made it so that Gao Yang’s punch hit an inch to the side. While the attack with seven times the power had seriously injured Azure Dragon, it wasn’t enough to kill him.

Flying away in a parallel trajectory to the ground, Azure Dragon tried to find purchase with both hands so that he could stop himself.

Gao Yang didn’t give him a chance. He teleported again to chase him.

His eyes were red, and blood was leaking from his ears, mouth, and nostrils—a result of forcefully breaking the energy routes in his body. He wouldn’t be able to use Teleportation for the next hour.

But he knew he had made the right gamble. Azure Dragon was on the verge of death.

“Hah!”

Gao Yang’s fist flew toward Azure Dragon.

Azure Dragon didn’t dodge it. In fact, he no longer had the strength to keep fighting Gao Yang after getting hit with a punch enhanced by Weak Point. And he wasn’t as fast as Gao Yang to begin with.

They were both certain of one thing: the next clash would determine the victor.

Azure Dragon clenched his right fist by his side and charged it for half a second. While it was only half a second, the shockwave Azure Dragon would unleash with his punch was enough to render Gao Yang into ashes without an energy shield.

At that moment, Gao Yang’s bloodshot eyes glowed white.

Wave of Serenity!
