Chapter 345 Retreat in Defeat

Chapter 345: Chapter 345 Retreat in Defeat

The Eight Gods Hall had come from afar, and with the support of the Western Rock Continent and Sky Ships, naturally, they didn’t need to participate in any test, they could directly enter the Endless Trial.

However, others still had to follow the rules.

Want to enter the Endless Trial?

You have to first prove you are a genius and are qualified to take part in such a trial, otherwise, you won’t even get the chance to compete with others.

But because of the crowd, even going for the assessment required queuing, it wasn’t something you could just walk into.

Some people had already passed the assessment and entered the Tianyun Temple, such as the previously famous Chen Yubin and Ryu Changlong, otherwise there would have been even more geniuses jumping out to confront the Eight Gods Hall at that time.

Shi Hao was curious, why was Lin Yuyue coming along with Luo Jian, what about Xiao Hei?

If there were doubts, then just go and ask.

Shi Hao walked towards Lin Yuyue, and as he approached, Lin Yuyue also saw him, her face blooming like a fresh flower, incomparably beautiful.

Luo Jian caught her unusual behaviour and involuntarily followed her gaze, immediately revealing a gloomy expression.

"Shi Hao!" he said through gritted teeth.

To him, Shi Hao was like a thorn in his side.

His original plan was to capture Lin Yuyue’s heart and thus completely end the century-long competition between his grandfather and Lin Fuming, and to conclude it with a complete victory for the Luo Family.

What happened?

Shi Hao appeared, not only disrupting Lin Yuyue’s heart but also humiliating him.

——When the other was still only in the Soul Nurturing realm, he could compete with him, and even injured him using strange techniques, causing him to lose all face.

"To your death!" he shouted loudly, immediately charging towards Shi Hao.

What is going on?

Everyone was surprised, why start fighting without any words exchanged?

But who didn’t know who Luo Jian was, and how powerful this young man was?

"This kid is done for."

"He’s caught the attention of Luo Jian."

"Tsk tsk, and he’s so good-looking too!"

People shook their heads one after another, thinking that Shi Hao was surely finished. Even those who didn’t know Luo Jian before, after seeing his battle with Tang Hai, must have realized his extraordinariness.

However, the few female Martial Artists glared angrily at Luo Jian, and only the last thread of reason stopped them from rushing forward, but their hostility towards Luo Jian had reached its peak.

Shi Hao smiled lightly, was he still the same person as before?

Come on!

Even when he was ten steps away, he was not afraid of Luo Jian, let alone now.

Bang!

As the two faced each other head-on with a punch, Shi Hao’s figure trembled, and he was immediately sent flying, while Luo Jian stood steadily at his original spot.

However, with Shi Hao’s strong physique, this was naturally a minor matter, without even a reddening of his face.

He couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, in terms of head-on confrontation, he was still no match for the existences from the Nine Islands, especially a genius like Luo Jian.

But the others were about to go crazy, right?

Shi Hao actually blocked a strike from Luo Jian!

How is that possible!

That was a prospective disciple of cultivation from the Purple Star Sect, and what was the Purple Star Sect? Even if it wasn’t as powerful as the Tianyun Temple, it was still one of the most top-tier forces on the Eastern Fire Continent. Their prospective disciple was actually blocked by someone even younger than him.

Isn’t this a tall tale?

Luo Jian’s eyes also tightened; this kid had made significant progress in his strength.

Good heavens, how much time had passed?

He was still from the Nine Islands, but Shi Hao was quickly catching up to him with terrifying speed. And how hard was it to break through to the Self-Observation realm? It was quite possible that while he was still figuring things out, Shi Hao had already caught up to his realm.

Based on the precedent that Shi Hao’s Soul Nurturing could rival his opponent, would he be a match for Shi Hao if their realms were equal?

Not even worthy to be an opponent for a single exchange.

With a loud shout, his fists swung forward, and one golden fist after another appeared out of thin air, smashing viciously towards Shi Hao.

"Luo Jian, I really overestimated you. So much time has passed, yet your strength hasn’t improved at all." Shi Hao shook his head. As he threw a punch in retaliation, thunder rampaged, crackling in the air, while nine Blood Shadow Swords were already flying out, ready to launch a surprise attack.

Bang!

Amid the flickering thunder, those golden fists seemingly met intense heat and began to melt, turning into molten gold.

The power of Shi Hao was indeed terrifying!

All who watched were utterly dazzled and overwhelmed.

Although Shi Hao’s strength was not as great as Luo Jian’s, his Soul Force was not weak. And what is the more important attribute for Martial Artists starting from Soul Nurturing?

Soul strength!

So, what if Luo Jian has sheer power? Shi Hao also has a strong physique.

Luo Jian’s scalp tingled as well; Shi Hao’s progress was too astonishing, leaving him shocked. He took a deep breath and asked, "How about Cao Jun?"

"Who?" Shi Hao asked in return.

Dammit!

Because he just couldn’t understand, Luo Jian had to explain, "The one who chased after you when you left the Purple Star Sect."

Oh!

This statement made many people gasp in surprise, and Lin Yuyue’s almond eyes even narrowed slightly, exuding a strong murderous vibe.

Luo Jian’s face reddened, but now he couldn’t care less and just glared at Shi Hao.

"Oh, I killed him," Shi Hao said casually.

"Impossible!" Luo Jian sneered, "Cao Jun is Self-Observation, if you could kill him, then the Sun would rise from the west."

Shi Hao smiled, "Alright, you caught me. The truth is, after my persuasive influence, Cao Jun had a change of heart, realizing the ugly truth about the Luo Family, and resolutely decided to become my servant."

This wasn’t entirely made up—after all, that short old man had indeed pleaded to be Shi Hao’s servant, compelled by the might of Han Liren.

"You—" Luo Jian pointed at Shi Hao in anger, this kid not only lied every time but also constantly slandered the Luo Family.

He couldn’t bear it any longer!

He was about to start moving to attack when, whoosh whoosh whoosh, nine Blood Shadow Swords were already launching, shooting towards him.

"Hmph!" Luo Jian sneered, thinking he wasn’t aware of such a technique from Shi Hao?

A genius like him, after taking a loss once, wouldn’t he have a countermeasure?

"Ah!" But at that moment, he felt a sharp pain in his eyes as two intensely powerful beams of light hit him, making him feel as though his eyes were going to go blind, the pain indescribable.

He was hit after all!

He had layered Elemental Power over his eyes, yet it still wasn’t enough to block the attack.

Why?

Because Shi Hao’s strength had made significant progress; before, Luo Jian could defend against it, but now he couldn’t.

—Luo Jian couldn’t allocate all his Elemental Power for defense, while Shi Hao could put in all his effort to attack. This difference between attack and defense was also why offense is the best defense.

In this way, with the Blood Shadow Swords dancing chaotically, how could Luo Jian defend?

He hurriedly retreated, not daring to continue the fight. After a few leaps, he had run off without a trace.

This!

Everyone was speechless, the battle was over?

So quickly?

Luo Jian fought Tang Hai with such dominance before, didn’t he?

But now, he was actually driven away by Shi Hao with just a few moves.

Shh, this youth was truly terrifying!
