Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
How could someone who had already been expelled from the city have the audacity to challenge him?
Impossible!
“Fight-”
Tao Mingzhu shouted loudly, his armor turning golden as intricate patterns of light shimmered upon it. His nine-foot-tall Battle Armor emitted a mysterious golden light.
His long spear now transformed into a golden lance.
With a sudden surge of power, the air around him was pushed aside, cracking and causing a cacophony of thunderous sounds.
Thrusting his spear forward, Tao Mingzhu advanced, his entire being becoming a golden dragon, following the trajectory of the spear!
So powerful!
Below, numerous gasps arose.
How could one withstand such formidable armor?
It seems like He Yangsun is destined to lose this battle…
Among the spectators, the members of the He family clenched their fists in despair.
They had thought victory was within their grasp today.
Unconsciously, they once again regarded He Yangsun as one of their own. He Yangsun narrowed his eyes and held the long saber horizontally in his hand.
Facing the charging dragon, he finally understood why Master Han had trained him with the Battle Puppet.
He understood why Master Han had said he needed to withstand 10 moves against the Battle Puppet before stepping onto the battle stage.
Because having powerful armor and puppets didn’t guarantee sufficient combat strength.
Tao Mingzhu appeared formidable at this moment, his attack seemingly as powerful as a collapsing mountain, something even a strong fighter among level one Armor Masters might struggle against.
But to a true expert, every move had flaws.
He Yangsun had placed himself among the ranks of the strong.
Instead of retreating, he advanced. He raised the long saber in his hand horizontally, and a trace of green light emanated from its blade.
“Slash—
The blade collided with the dragon, causing it to tremble before uncontrollably hurtling forward.
Then, everyone watched as Tao Mingzhu, in his dragon form, crashed more than 30 feet away, flying out of the stage.
“Bang!
Tao Mingzhu’s head collided with a distant jade pillar, and he fell to the ground, unconscious.
This time, there was no possibility of further combat.
With a smile on his face, the judge who had stood up earlier announced loudly, “He Yangsun, victory.”
Victory!
A wave of cheers erupted from the audience.
For most spectators, it didn’t matter who won.
They just wanted to see an exciting fight.
And today’s fight was indeed intense and thrilling.
“Young Master He, are you going to continue fighting?”
“Young Master He, if you keep gambling, I’ll definitely bet on you to win!” Amidst the cheers, He Yangsun collected his winnings and swiftly left.
The members of the He family remained in their places, their expressions complex.
The people of the Tao family looked livid, their eyes fixed on He Yangsun’s departing figure.
Within a day, news of He Yangsun from the He family defeating the young master of the Tao family spread throughout Pagoda City.
Once the city’s laughingstock, He Yangsun suddenly became an inspirational figure.
Many discussions among the noble families revolved around how strong He Yangsun’s rise against all odds was.
Several prominent families began preparing to counter the challenges that He Yangsun might pose.
In their opinion, since He Yangsun was so strong, he would surely not be content with his previous failures and would reclaim what he had lost.
And indeed, that was exactly what happened.
The next day, He Yangsun challenged the aristocratic Zhang family.
The wager was five shops.
Two days later, Zhang Shishun, one of the top-ranking members of the Zhang family, was defeated.
The next day, He Yangsun challenged the aristocratic Xu family, with a wager of 10 shops.
The young master of the Xu family went on stage and was defeated in three moves.
A day later, He Yangsun challenged the Sun family.
In two months, He Yangsun challenged 13 aristocratic families of Pagoda City, winning back shops, mines, and various resources, amounting to nearly five million origin coins.
This was already close to the He family’s wealth at its peak.
During these two months, his name spread throughout the entire Pagoda City. He became known as number one among the younger generation, the most promising successor of Pagoda City, and the epitome of inspirational success. On the second floor attic of the shop, He Yangsun stood respectfully before Han Muye.
Surrounded by a radiant aura, Han Muye had just finished forging a piece of dark-green armor plate.
“This piece of armor can double the defense of the breastplate. If you switch to this piece of armor, the level-three armor will be repaired.”
Handing the plate to He Yangsun, Han Muye looked up and asked, “Are you really going to personally escort the caravan?”
He Yangsun’s rise had naturally attracted attention to the shop.
The business of selling various battle puppet and battle armor components within the shop had significantly improved, and there were also many more repair orders for battle puppets and battle armor.
Not only did people from Pagoda City come to the shop, but others from elsewhere did as well.
The armor plate Han Muye had just forged was sent by the Zheng family from Maple Forest City, which was a level-nine Ruin city like Yutao City.
Maple Forest City was nearly 3,000 miles away from Pagoda City. It spanned two mountain ranges and a barren plain.
“This armor was sent by the Zheng Family of Maple Forest City.” He Yangsun nodded and said in a deep voice, “The Zheng Family is a major clan with a level six Puppet Master.”
A level six Puppet Master was among the top few individuals within thousands of miles.
Such a large family indeed deserved serious attention.
“l feel that if I don’t personally escort the shipment this time, this armor will surely be lost.”
He Yangsun’s expression was grave as he spoke.
In the past two months, he had offended too many people in the city.
Undoubtedly, countless people were now plotting against him.
If the caravan lost this armor, He Yangsun would have offended the Zheng family and a level six Puppet Master.
“How about this? Coincidentally, I don’t have anything to do recently. I’ll go to Maple Forest City to take a look too.” Han Muye put away the various items on the long table in front of him and looked at He Yangsun..
