The four clashed intensely, their speed reaching the pinnacle.
The nearby Transcendents engaged in battle instinctively backed off somewhat, fearing they'd be caught up if they weren't careful.
If Yang Bo, as a Wind Element Transcendent, exploded with such speed that others couldn't see him, leaving just a trail of afterimages,
then Su Qi, at this moment, appeared to others as if he was engaging in Instant Teleportation!
"The warm-up ends here," Su Qi said slowly.
Yang Bo's eyelids twitched, a foreboding arose in his heart, and in the next second, a barrage of fists filled his entire field of vision.
Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud!
The sound like rolling drums erupted instantly, ceaselessly ringing in the ears.
At this moment, Yang Bo felt a rainstorm of punches crazily landing on him, as if every bone in his body was cracking with fine lines.
It wasn't just him.
Even Li Jun and Hu Jian encountered attacks at the same time.
Li Jun's metallic body was full of fist marks, beaten into an unrecognizable form, full of pits and bumps.
However, what horrified Yang Bo even more was the air being blown apart, creating a momentary vacuum region, combined with the air rushing in, creating immense pressure, along with some kind of mysterious force field firmly holding him!
With two speed buffs stacked, Su Qi had already overwhelmed them.
Using the Super Speed Hurricane Fist, purely in terms of speed, the three couldn't even see his attacks!
"This man's speed is terrifying; if this continues, I'm bound to die!"
Yang Bo felt his scalp go numb, sensing the bad situation, he let out a low shout, squeezing the energy within him to its limit, forcibly breaking free from the force field and leaping into the air.
He was severely injured, his body had caved in at multiple places, and his entire skeleton was heavily damaged.
Once free from the force field and regaining contact with the air, he felt like a fish in water, not pausing at all, riding the wind straight up to the sky.
While Overlord Level cannot fly, Transcendents with special pathways can, and Yang Bo's Wind Element pathway was one of them.
As long as he flew high enough,
even the mightiest Overlord Level couldn't touch him!
This move genuinely surprised Su Qi, but only a little.
He casually placed a Holy Lock Ring on the two other battered Overlord Level Transcendents.
The dazzling Divine Power continuously contracted; Li Jun and Hu Jian were terrified to find their boiling Extraordinary Power turning into dead water instantly, completely undrivable!
This was the heaven-defying aspect of the Holy Lock Ring, the smaller it shrinks, the greater the Power of Imprisonment on the Extraordinary Power, unless one could break free at the start.
Having accomplished this, Su Qi slightly bent his knees, sharply sensing the lines formed by the Heaven and Earth Power in his view.
This was the perception granted by his Mind Drive Ability.
Boom!
In the next moment, he borrowed the terrifying Heaven and Earth Power wrapped in the planet's rotation, transforming into a blazing golden light that pierced through heaven and earth, shooting towards the steadily ascending Yang Bo.
The mountainous terrain beneath his push visibly sank half a meter, causing the Transcendents battling nearby to stumble and fall.
Everyone couldn't help but stop fighting, blankly staring up at the sky.
Hmm!?
Me, a dignified Control Level Transcendent, falling straight to the ground while fighting? What just happened?
At this moment, Yang Bo, already climbing to over five thousand meters, hadn't even caught his breath when he suddenly noticed disturbances below. Looking down, he was almost scared out of his wits.
A blistering golden light pursued him several times faster than he could fly.
Brushing past him, he was horrified to see the golden light held the fearsomely powerful white-robed Transcendent!
Surpassing Yang Bo, Su Qi's lips curved into a slight smile, raising his hands overhead, a gigantic golden hammer appeared out of nowhere.
Though Yang Bo had thought he escaped from a lethal situation, his face was filled with despair that gradually turned into stupor, until finally...
"No!!!"
The hammer approached.
The intense suffocation caused Yang Bo's heart to clench suddenly!
Duang!!!
Yang Bo's upturned face, along with his neck, was firmly smashed by the Hammer of Repentance, bending at an odd angle, being struck down with even greater speed than before!
Thud!
The ground trembled violently as everyone witnessed a figure plummeting from above, crashing into a deep pit, stunned looks etched on their faces.
As the crowd strained to see who was in the pit, a radiant golden figure descended slowly, like a god appearing on earth, evoking an aura of unapproachable majesty.
"It's over..." The Transcendents of Xinhao Club felt despair setting in, knowing the battle had concluded.
In a conflict between Transcendents, it's ultimately a contest of top-tier strength.
If the top-tier strength could hold its ground, or even gain the upper hand, only then could others cooperate effectively.
Once the top-tier strength has been crushed in such a sweeping manner, it signals they have no option but to surrender and be at the mercy of others.
Su Qi, stepping with ethereal grace, walked to the edge of the pit, glancing at Yang Bo lying within.
Indeed.
This strike had been restrained, not executed to its full potential.
It was to confirm the answer in his mind; though he already had a rough guess, he hoped to get confirmation from Yang Bo.
In the pit, Yang Bo's gaze was scattered, then turned to confusion.
Once he saw Su Qi, he grew agitated instantly.
Ignoring his injuries, he crawled out of the pit with hands and feet, then collapsed before Su Qi: "Yang Bo... thanks the lord for sparing me, allowing me to witness the glory of the Divine at life's end, to reflect on my sins."
As soon as he finished speaking,
Su Qi sensed something was amiss.
Yang Bo was not the only one kneeling and begging for mercy, but from him, Su Qi saw unparalleled devotion!
"Is this... the effect of the Hammer of Repentance!?" Su Qi pondered silently, deriving unexpected insight.
"Yang Bo, who instructed you to issue the bounty on Su Qi's head?" Su Qi asked.
Yang Bo quickly raised his head: "It was Yan Song!"
"Yan Song? How could a newcomer who's awakened only recently command you?"
Yang Bo explained, "He's Young Master Xu Zisheng's confidant, often lingering around me, constantly mentioning how much Young Master Xu Zisheng despises this 'Su Qi'."
"Hence, wanting to curry favor with Young Master Xu Zisheng, I foolishly committed such an unforgivable act."
"So Xu Zisheng also knew about it?" Su Qi's gaze sharpened.
Yang Bo thought for a moment, then replied, "I believe he knew; nothing within the club escapes his notice."
Now that his suspicions were confirmed, Su Qi took a deep breath, realizing they were indeed his old classmates.
Scenes from three years of their time together flashed across his mind like a kaleidoscope.
At this moment, he finally saw the overwhelming envy behind that polite, insincere smile.
One reason he'd overlooked it was that he was reluctant to expend energy on these schemes; another was he never wished to assume malice in others.
Three years as classmates, though their relationship wasn't particularly cordial, he never thought it could come to life and death conflict.
It seems the teachers' previous guidance wasn't wrong.
In this world, there are those whose hearts swell infinitely after gaining Extraordinary Power.
"Very well, you two can just wait for my return to settle accounts!" Su Qi's eyes smoldered; he couldn't allow such a ticking time bomb under his nose.
If not promptly removed, it would be akin to entrusting his family's fate to others!
At this moment, Su Qi suppressed his rising anger.
His gaze steady on Yang Bo, whose face was filled with remorse and unwavering openness.
It was hard to discern whether this was sheer survival instinct or the influence of the Hammer of Repentance.
Nonetheless,
he knew identifying it was simple.
He happened to want to test the Hammer of Repentance's full impact, so he coldly said, "You... return to the glory of the Divine."
The moment he spoke,
Yang Bo was both ashamed and excited, prostrating on the ground, fervently shouting, "Thank you for guiding me, my lord!"
Immediately, he frenziedly mobilized his internal energy, his body expanding briefly before suddenly exploding.
