Asura Emperor Venerable
Chapter 576: No Respect

Chapter 576: Chapter 576: No Respect

Shi Hao couldn’t help but laugh, "It was you who first rejected me, so where does this come of me not giving face?"

The old youth sternly looked at Shi Hao, "The decisions made by the Heaven’s Path Alliance tolerate no refusal."

Shi Hao shook his head, "Sorry about that, but from now on, you have to start learning how to accept rejections."

"Hahaha!" The old youth sneered, "Shi Hao, do you think by defeating a person who just stepped into the Founding King Court, you really possess the power to contend against the Founding King Court? Besides, the Heaven’s Path Alliance even has powerful masters from the Supplementing Divine Temple!"

"So what? Inside the academy, do you dare to strike against me?" Shi Hao smiled.

"You’re right," the old youth nodded, "Within the academy, we indeed do not dare to strike against you. No one can break the rules set by the Almighties, but once you leave the academy, especially if you enter the Elemental Cave, haha, it’s normal for various accidents to occur, isn’t it?"

"Are you threatening me?" Shi Hao said indifferently.

"It’s not a threat, just analyzing some objective facts for you," the old youth replied.

Shi Hao was neither angry nor startled, and simply said, "Previously, the West Rock Alliance also threatened me in the same manner, and now... you can take a look at what the situation is with the West Rock Alliance."

The old youth scorned to the extreme, "You actually compare the West Rock Alliance, such a low-grade organization, with our Heaven’s Path Alliance, are you naive or foolish?"

The Heaven’s Path Alliance, backed by the Heavenly Path Association, how could its power be compared to the scraps of the West Rock Continent?

Shi Hao gently tapped on the table with a finger, "I like tranquility, and I’m not interested in bullying the weak, but if someone provokes me, I don’t mind annihilating them completely!"

He spoke with a chilling determination.

At this, the old youth paused, then his expression drastically changed as he said sternly, "Shi Hao, are you insisting on opposing the Heaven’s Path Alliance?"

Shi Hao looked at him, his expression between a smile and non-smile, "How many times is this you’ve threatened me now?"

"So what if I threaten you? Who do you think you are?" the old youth arrogantly said.

Just a nobody from the Eastern Fire Continent, what background do you have?

None!

Hence, even if you are monstrous, you are but a rootless duckweed, which the Heaven’s Path Alliance can completely crush and reshape.

Shi Hao smiled and reached towards the old youth.

"You dare!" The old youth shouted furiously. Boom, nine Dharma appearances simultaneously activated, striking back at Shi Hao.

He was a Nine Appearances, a cultivation not even considered low within the Heavenly Palace Academy, and since he represented the Heaven’s Path Alliance, he naturally never imagined Shi Hao would dare to make a move.

But, what does Nine Appearances mean in front of the current Shi Hao?

Bang!

With one grab, Shi Hao caught the old youth and then flung him, causing him to heavily fall to the ground.

The old youth struggled to rise, only to be pinned down by Shi Hao’s foot on his chest, pressing down like a massive mountain, rendering him completely immobile.

"You—" He glared furiously at Shi Hao, considering it an extreme disgrace.

And what was more, he couldn’t believe it. He was a man of the Heaven’s Path Alliance and Shi Hao actually dared to strike him?

Are you not afraid of the Heaven’s Path Alliance’s revenge?

He had clearly analyzed very well how terrifying it is to anger the Heaven’s Path Alliance. Do you really not care at all?

Madness, absolute madness.

The old youth clenched his fists tightly, filled with immense rage.

Smack, Shi Hao stepped on his face, instantly causing the old youth to spit blood, even sending out several broken teeth.

The old youth nearly fainted from anger; he was excessively arrogant—truly, excessively arrogant. He swore that he would definitely trample Shi Hao underfoot, repaying today’s humiliation tenfold, a hundredfold.

"Scram!" Shi Hao kicked the old youth out of the door with another kick.

After rolling several times on the ground, the old youth finally stopped, climbed up, and wiped his mouth with his hand. When he saw the fresh blood on his hands, the anger on his face intensified.

"Shi Hao, remember this—I am Zhang Yin—"

Bang!

He had just intended to leave a dramatic statement, but Shi Hao did not give him the chance, closing the door directly.

"lai!" Only then did the old youth finish his name.

This naturally made him even angrier, yet he dared not knock on the door again, instead turning to leave.

He certainly was not willing to swallow this indignity.

Shi Hao, however, did not take Zhang Yinlai’s threats to heart at all. He first converted the Elemental Core into Contribution Value and then went to the Great Void Realm to quickly perfect his ninth Dharma appearance and make a breakthrough to the tenth.

As time went by, more and more people were able to enter the Great Void Realm. Many people had been saving up their Contribution Values for a long time, and they felt they had to experience the Great Void Realm at least once, or else they’d be embarrassed to talk about it.

Others were just curious and entered without intending to cultivate, becoming fascinated with this world instead.

They tried sparring and found it surprisingly feasible.

This immediately set off a trend in the academy. Many people entered the Great Void Realm just to spar with others, because here, they didn’t have to worry about getting injured; here, even if they were torn to pieces, it wouldn’t affect their physical bodies in the slightest.

For young geniuses like them, what they lacked was precisely this kind of practical training. Thus, being able to fight without getting injured while fully exercising their abilities was tremendously helpful in enhancing their combat power.

Shi Hao had no intention of engaging in these matches. These battles, where one couldn’t get hurt or die, offered him no sense of pressure or danger from real combat, so they were of no help to him at all.

He went straight to a secluded room and began closed-door cultivation.

He stayed in the Great Void Realm for one hundred seventy days, which was only seventeen days in the outside world, before he left.

—He ran out of Contribution Value.

This time, he allowed the Black Hole Physiognomy to devour most of the Elemental Core, so the Contribution Values he swapped for weren’t much, only enough to stay in the Great Void Realm for one hundred seventy days.

Such gains would be unimaginable even in the dreams of those at Self-Observation.

He was still a bit away from the peak of the ninth Dharma appearance.

Shi Hao once again applied to the academy, wanting to continue in the Elemental Cave.

Then, he began to wait, hoping to receive approval by tomorrow.

That night, someone came to visit Shi Hao.

It was still Zhang Yinlai.

"Shi Hao, I’m giving you one last chance; join our Heavenly Path Alliance immediately!" he said with revived spirits. "This is an order from our Alliance Hierarch himself. You must kneel and come before him, or else you will be an enemy of the Heavenly Path Association!"

It wasn’t the Heavenly Path Alliance, but the Heavenly Path Association!

While the Heavenly Path Alliance was only limited to the Heavenly Palace Academy, the Heavenly Path Association was different—it was a colossal entity that spanned the South Wood, North Silver, and West Rock continents.

This was an attempt to utterly persecute Shi Hao.

The Heavenly Path Alliance was this domineering?

Shi Hao walked toward Zhang Yinlai.

"What, what do you want to do?" Zhang Yinlai already had a psychological shadow concerning Shi Hao. Instantly losing his arrogance, he asked as he retreated.
