Chapter 553: Chapter 257: Appointed Top Scorer_3

The surrounding crowd chuckled, and Zhou Qianying laughed, "Little brother Chen, you should just admit defeat and apologize to Brother Ma from the Ma family, and return the Spiritual Medicine you stole from them!"

Before she could finish speaking, a thunderous boom suddenly rang in her ears. Chen Shi took a step forward, his form causing the air to explode with booming Thunder Sound!

The towering brute, Sun Yisheng, with eyes wide like hammering nails, exclaimed, "Such a powerful True Body! The young master is in danger!"

Ma Zongzhou also sensed the danger immediately and began to retreat swiftly!

He was a direct descendent of the Sect Master of the Ma Family, a clan disciple. Every month, he had three veteran soldiers come to train his combat skills and spar with him. He had also joined the border army to battle demons, making his combat awareness one of the sharpest among his peers in the Ma Family.

As he retreated, he had already activated his Cultivation Technique.

The technique he was practicing was called the Dragon and Phoenix Treasure Talisman, which could only be cultivated by those in the Sect Master’s lineage. The ’Wenzhuang Duke Treasure’ contained this extremely difficult technique. The difficulty lay in the fact that one had to find Dragon Blood and Phoenix Blood to ingest during the Foundation Establishment phase and at the same time draw the Dragon Phoenix Treasure Talisman on their skin.

Simply meeting the condition of obtaining Dragon Blood and Phoenix Blood was beyond the means of most families. The Ma Family couldn’t find real dragons or phoenixes, but there are many mutant beasts in the world with dragon and phoenix bloodlines, and extracting their blood could also lead to the cultivation of this technique.

The Dragon and Phoenix Treasure Talisman provided dual cultivation inside and out, and once completed, the body would be like a True Dragon swirling, emitting a golden light from the phoenix feathers, unparalleled in sharpness, slaying enemies as if they were taking objects from a bag.

Internally, this cultivation rendered his own cultivation incredibly robust and powerful, with rich and high-quality Qi-Blood. Even if adversaries had the same level of cultivation, they would be overwhelmed by his more resilient Qi-Blood!

However...

"It’s too fast!"

Desperation flashed in Ma Zongzhou’s eyes as he saw Chen Shi approach, while his Qi-Blood had just begun to move and his technique hadn’t circulated for even one full cycle.

"Crack!"

Ma Zongzhou felt the crisp cracking sound as a fist struck his ribs underneath his armpit—one, two, three ribs, all snapping at once, producing a single breaking sound because they broke simultaneously.

The physique honed by the Dragon and Phoenix Treasure Talisman couldn’t withstand this punch!

His Qi-Blood circulated, and after one full cycle of the Dragon and Phoenix Treasure Talisman, seven colorful lights emerged behind him, like seven tangible yet intangible swords, slashing out in quick succession!

He was truly enraged.

The opponent’s move was too fast for him to react, but as long as the Dragon and Phoenix Treasure Talisman circulated, he could easily slay his foe!

Chen Shi was amidst the seven-colored light, palms flipping up and down, repeatedly striking the sword lights, dodging their edges, dispersing them in all directions, and then delivering a heavy kick to Ma Zongzhou’s neck.

"Boom!"

Ma Zongzhou rolled away, tumbling and spinning like a windmill into the distance, his neck askew, nearly severed.

He rolled for half a mile before coming to a stop, trying to get up, but collapsed again onto the ground.

Chen Shi was startled at first and then flew into a rage. He rushed forward, aiming a barrage of vicious kicks at Ma Zongzhou’s groin and abdomen.

"Why did you fight back? What were you fighting back for?"

"Do you realize? I almost killed you!"

"I still have to play the good boy in front of Mr. Sun!"

"I still need to leave a good impression on Chen Tang! Your mother almost made me kill someone in front of him!"

After kicking for a while and still feeling unsatisfied, Chen Shi spotted a heavy stone weighing over a hundred pounds nearby, picked it up, and smashed it on Ma Zongzhou’s head, shattering the stone.

Ma Zongzhou was left half-dead, furious, and roared, "Stop hitting me!"

Chen Shi was stunned for a moment and then exploded in anger, reaching out a hand to summon the canopy from the wooden cart. He pulled out a staff, as thick as a man’s arm and taller than a person, from inside the Hua Gai and began to thrash Ma Zongzhou without aim, eliciting endless screams from him.

After beating him into unconsciousness, Chen Shi, fatigued from the assault, wiped the blood off the staff and reinserted it back into the Hua Gai.

The Hua Gai flew back onto the wooden cart, and Chen Shi dragged Ma Zongzhou back to the crowd, throwing him at the towering brute.

The towering brute was shocked, hastily stepping back to protect Ma Zongzhou.

Sun Yisheng, filled with doubt and uncertainty, also stepped back to protect Chen Shi.

Chen Shi got on the cart and said, "There was a bit of a delay, Mr. Sun, please get on." fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm

Sun Yisheng, not daring to get on the cart, followed the wooden cart for a while. Seeing that the towering brute didn’t pursue, he finally climbed aboard.

The wooden cart departed, leaving behind the stunned Zhou Qianying, Wang Ping, and others.

Inside the cart, Sun Yisheng and Chen Shi remained silent for a long time without speaking.

Mustered up his courage, Sun Yisheng was about to speak when Chen Shi broke the silence, "Mr. Sun, let’s pretend today’s incident never happened, and please don’t tell Chen Tang."

Sun Yisheng was taken aback then probed, "So, in front of Chen Tang, you’re still the good kid?"

Chen Shi corrected him, "The well-behaved kid."

Sun Yisheng thought for a moment and nodded.

—Sorry for the late update. I was dissatisfied with how I initially wrote the scene and didn’t capture the feeling I wanted, so I deleted it and rewrote it. Indeed, after deleting over three thousand words and writing anew, it feels much better, although my head is a bit dizzy.
