Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 137 Frankness
"Roar!"

They met on a narrow path, and one of the monsters, wielding a trident and with dark yellow skin, aimed at Xiao Hanxue, who was charging forward with boiling fighting spirit.

"boom!"

The trident and the battle axe collided in mid-air, sparks flying!
Despite the fact that the battle axe was a heavy weapon with strong explosive power, capable of striking in mid-air, Xiao Hanxue was actually knocked back and sent flying. After landing, she involuntarily took six steps back!

"Such immense strength! Be careful, this monster's physique is definitely over 30 points!"

"Focus on one at a time! Xiao Hanxue and Fang Qiyun, hold off the other two! Guan Yue, block the attack from the fork-wielding monster! Liu Yiren, provide support! Ji Fuyou, I will use a secret technique to shake its mind; seize the opportunity!"

Yang Kaitai quickly issued the order.

Immediately afterwards, his gaze was fixed on the fork-wielding monster charging at the forefront, and a powerful mental force rippled through his body.

This shock quickly resonated with the mental fluctuations emanating from the forked monster.

When the monster sensed something was wrong and turned its gaze to Yang Kaitai, its pupils widened suddenly.

"Buzz!"

It seemed as if something had exploded in the mental world of the fork-wielding monster; Ji Fuyou could clearly feel the intense mental disorder emanating from the monster.

"Roar!"

The intense pain made him scream in agony.

Having received a warning, Ji Fuyou naturally wouldn't let this opportunity pass.

He was poised to strike when his feet unleashed a burst of power.

A short spear in his hand pierced through the void!
Powerful and well-rounded!

The gun comes out like a dragon!

At this moment, the short spear seemed to transform into a dragon, roaring with a sharp whistling sound that tore through the void and white mist that pierced the air, as it fiercely plunged into the head of the fork-wielding monster!
"Oh!"

The powerful, surging force exploded the moment it struck the monster's head, instantly shattering it into pieces.

The speed was so fast that the monster had no chance to react!
"it is good!"

Yang Kaitai couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Lore!

A spectacular headshot!
Xiao Hanxue, who had just been blasted back six steps and was now regaining her strength to move forward, noticed something and couldn't help but glance at Ji Fuyou out of the corner of her eye.

"Dan Jin!?"

Ji Fuyou has actually mastered the Dan Jin (energy cultivation technique)!?
The last time I saw him, although his attributes were decent and his combat experience was quite rich, his combat skills...

She couldn't even be bothered to comment.

In less than a month, he has not only undergone tremendous changes in his combat skills, but has also comprehended Dan Jin at an unparalleled speed, reaching a level in martial arts that is almost on par with hers.

This kind of growth...

That's incredibly fast!
"Again! Hammer-wielding monster!"

Yang Kaitai shouted excitedly, his gaze turning to the other side, to a dark-skinned guard wielding a meteor hammer.

The monster had just swung its giant hammer, forcing Guan Yue back, and was about to pounce on him to deliver a fatal blow.

But once she caught her breath, Xiao Hanxue rushed forward immediately, her battle axe slicing through the air with the force of splitting a mountain, forcing the monster to swing its hammer to defend itself.

"Buzz!"

Almost at the same moment that he struck Xiao Hanxue's battle axe with his hammer, and brilliant sparks flew between them, Yang Kaitai's spirit-igniting secret technique was activated.

The monster roared in pain again, enraged.

As his attack rhythm faltered and his spirits were ignited, Ji Fuyou, who had already pounced on him, suddenly turned his spear.

The next moment, a cold glint, like a bolt of lightning, pierced down, precisely tracing the gap in the monster's meteor hammer's trajectory, and pierced through his head.

"Oh!"

The blood mist exploded!
Double kill!

"Hahaha! That's it!"

Yang Kaitai laughed loudly, his gaze quickly shifting to the third monster.

"I come!"

Xiao Hanxue seemed unwilling to be outdone, and with a loud shout, she unleashed her power from her feet, once again using that displacement and explosive secret technique.

Even as Fang Qiyun unleashed her inner energy but was still forced back by the monster, she shot off like an arrow and soared high into the sky in front of the monster.

Just then, Yang Kaitai's secret alchemy technique arrived.

The monster was also shaken and roared angrily.

As the opening appeared, Xiao Hanxue raised her giant axe high and slammed it down on the monster's head with the force of Mount Tai crashing down. The pure and violent power instantly shattered the monster's head and half of its body.

"Great!"

Fang Qiyun, who was standing to the side, gave a heartfelt exclamation of praise.

When she confronted the monster, she deeply understood how powerful and fast it was.

After just a few collisions, she felt numbness in her arms and a muscle strain.

But Xiao Hanxue...

Although he was at a disadvantage in the clash of power with this monster, he could immediately recover after each defeat and launch a counterattack as if nothing had happened.

This level of physical ability is far beyond what she can match.

"hey-hey!"

Xiao Hanxue smiled after being praised by Fang Qiyun.

The way people looked at her became much more agreeable.

After killing the three-headed monster, Guan Yue immediately checked the spoils of war.

Yang Kaitai's mood also lightened considerably.

Both Ji Fuyou and Fang Qiyun's performances far exceeded his expectations. In particular, Fang Qiyun, who was essentially an extra member of Ji Fuyou, had combat strength that was almost on par with Xiao Hanxue's level a month ago.

He's far superior to Guan Yuelai.

The remaining Ji Fuyou surprised him even more.

His physique is probably over 28 points!
He even mastered the Dan Jin technique!
This already makes him the strongest in direct combat among the six of them!
In particular, he also possesses a secret technique that places a tremendous strain on his body, but provides an astonishing boost to his combat power!

Based on his observation, once Ji Fuyou used that secret technique, he alone could overpower and beat any one of the three monsters from before.

If Fang Qiyun were there to assist...

Fighting three opponents is just a matter of spending more time.

This is definitely a powerhouse capable of reaching the Heavenly Ranking.

If things go well, they might even rank in the top 108 at the World Martial Arts Tournament.

Collaborating with Ji Fuyou...

What a treasure.

"Gentlemen, the strength of these monsters is a whole level higher than that of the previous blood bats. Each one has a physique that is no less than that of a master-level martial artist. Moreover, as you have probably noticed, these monsters also possess extraordinary combat skills. They can be regarded as master-level martial artists."

Yang Kaitai spoke up.

Although human master-level martial artists may have a certain advantage in equipment, they may not necessarily have a significant advantage in a real fight.

“Right now, we can handle two or three, or even five, monsters with our small team. But if there are more of these monsters, especially if there are hundreds or thousands like the blood bats in that hall, we will have no chance to stop them.”

Yang Kaitai said cautiously, "In order to ensure a smoother fight against these monsters, I think it is necessary for us to inform each other in detail about our strengths and areas of expertise."

These words caused the expressions of the group to tighten slightly.

The skills each person possesses are essentially their most secret trump cards, which are related to whether they can turn the tide at crucial moments.

They wouldn't tell you anything unless you were a completely trustworthy team member.

Even though Yang Kaitai, Guan Yue, Liu Yiren, Xiao Hanxue and others had previously agreed to team up, they did not disclose their skills and attributes to the public because they were unsure of the actual situation in the trial grounds.

But now...

Fang Qiyun turned her gaze to Ji Fuyou.

Ji Fuyou considered the strength of these monsters...

If the little monster is already comparable to a master-level martial artist like the Corpse Demon King, then how strong must the leader, the Flourishing Sect Master, be?
He alone...

It is clear that they are not up to the task.

He nodded.

On the other side, Liu Yiren also nodded slightly: "Okay."

"Then I'll go first."

Seeing this, Yang Kaitai was the first to speak up and show his sincerity: "My spirit is 24.4, my physique is 21.8, I practice the Po Jun Sword Technique, I have reached the Transformation Realm, and I have mastered three skills: Healing Light, Blood War Song, and Soul Shock Explosion."

"Soul Explosion?"

Ji Fuyou's heart skipped a beat: "Is it that interference skill?"

"This skill works by aligning mental frequencies and then disrupting the opponent's mental frequency at a crucial moment."

Yang Kaitai said, "It's not just disruptive, it's also actually lethal, but the lethality is very weak... I estimate that it can only exert its damaging effect after one has developed divine sense."

"Divine sense? 25 units of mental energy? A blue skill?"

Liu Yiren was somewhat surprised.

"Correct."

Yang Kaitai smiled and nodded: "However, it can still be used when the spirit is at 20 seconds, but the effect will be somewhat reduced."

"With a physique of 22.8 and a spirit of 14.2, I have mastered the Po Jun sword technique and reached the Dan Jin realm."

Guan Yue smiled wryly.

This data is far inferior to Yang Kaitai's.

but……

His attributes are those of a normal high-level martial artist.

"I come."

Xiao Hanxue immediately said, "My physique is 26.6, my spirit is 14.7, and I've mastered the Gang Jin technique, hehe. In addition, I've also mastered Absolute Rationality, Blood Burning Secret Technique, and Victory Charge! Oh, I won't mention the Great River Sword Technique and the Breaking Army Sword Technique."

Liu Yiren nodded slightly: "Spirit 22.8, Physique 18.1, Transformation Force, in addition to a basic swordsmanship, she has mastered Divine Arts and Illusion Arts, and also knows a poison-making technique."

Yang Kaitai, who was standing to the side, said with a smile, "Ms. Liu's poison-making technique produces poisons that are incredibly lethal to non-undead beasts. They are the key to turning the tide in many battles. I just don't know how many doses you brought this time."

"This time we are well prepared, with three to five portions of both types of toxins."

Liu Yiren said with a smile.

"It will definitely be of great use at crucial moments."

As Yang Kaitai spoke, he turned his gaze to Fang Qiyun and Ji Fuyou.

Fang Qiyun spoke first: "My physique is 24.5, my spirit is only 14.4, and my Dan Jin, apart from a basic sword technique, only has the skill Healing Light."

This data is only slightly better than Guan Yue's.

However, Yang Kaitai was not surprised.

He hadn't had high hopes for Fang Qiyun to begin with, so the fact that she possessed this attribute already delighted him.

At that moment, everyone's attention turned to Ji Fuyou.

They had all witnessed Ji Fuyou's ferocity in killing the two monsters, and they were eager to know just how strong he had become.

Since Ji Fuyou had chosen to team up with them, he didn't hide anything.

"My physique is 28.6 and my spirit is 22.4. I mastered the Dan Jin through the Great River Sword Technique. In addition, I also mastered five skills: Healing Light, Illusionary Shadowless Technique, Innate Armor-Piercing Sword Qi, Heavenly Demon Disintegration, and Overlord's True Body."
