Chapter 2442 Gregory Lost! Wang Teng Strikes! (5)
This person turned out to be none other than Wang Teng himself!
"Hmm?" Le Tun halted his steps, looking down at Wang Teng, his gaze meeting the young man's as he asked, "What brings you here?"
"I've come to challenge you as well!" Wang Teng said with a faint smile.
"Challenge me?" Le Tun was somewhat surprised. This black-haired youth before him was merely a cosmos-stage warrior, so why would he come to challenge him? It was quite amusing.
"What?" The surrounding crowd also thought they misheard.
A cosmos-stage martial warrior wanted to challenge Le Tun?
What kind of joke is this?
"Brother, don't joke around. You're just a cosmos-stage warrior. It's not too late to come back in ten years to challenge," someone chimed in.
"Hahaha, ten years might not be enough, it'll probably take at least a hundred years."
"By then, Le Tun would probably have left. You can only challenge the next one, or maybe the one after the next Heavenly Lightning Mountain master."
"Maybe even the one after the next one wouldn't do. It might have to be the one after the one after the next."
"The one after the one after the one after the next, you guys really underestimate this prodigy."
"Could this guy be a rookie who's entering the Realm Space for the first time? He hasn't quite grasped the situation yet."
"That's possible. Generally, rookies who have just entered the dimensional space behave like this. They're fearless novices. Every year, there are several who make fools of themselves."
"But to have the courage to come to Heavenly Lightning Mountain and make a fool of oneself, he's the first."
…
The crowd buzzed with discussions, finding the situation somewhat amusing.
Initially, they were unaware of what was happening, but when they heard that Wang Teng was challenging Le Tun, they couldn't contain their amusement.
A cosmos-stage warrior challenging the master of Heavenly Lightning Mountain was truly the biggest news in recent times. The entire Realm Space would surely discuss this matter.
It would be extremely embarrassing.
After all, within this Realm Space, there were prodigies from various major forces in the universe. Once the news spread, everyone would know.
"Oh, it's that handsome guy. Although his courage is commendable, he's far behind Gregory's strength and not a match for Le Tun."
"What a waste of a handsome face. Seems like he lacks some intelligence."
"Who says that? He's just a fearless novice, still too young, and in need of guidance and help from us, the Queen of Flowers."
"Sisters, let's go help him."
…
On the other side, the group of female martial warriors suddenly became interested and marched toward Wang Teng's direction in full force.
"What the heck???" Wang Teng's eyes widened, his mind filled with absurd thoughts. Were these women out of their minds?
He didn't dare to be entangled by these women. He immediately soared into the sky, arriving in front of Le Tun once again, and said, "I want to challenge you. It's not a joke."
"Little brother, stop fooling around. Come down quickly. You're no match for Le Tun." The female warriors shouted from below, not giving up.
"Only a fool would come down," Wang Teng sighed.
"Hahaha…" Round Ball couldn't help but burst into laughter. This man was too handsome for his own good, attracting attention wherever he went.
Usually, he might attract one or two admirers, but now, he had drawn a whole crowd. It was truly terrifying!
Le Tun's expression turned peculiar as he glanced at Wang Teng, disinterestedly stating, "You should go back down. You're not my match. Didn't you see the outcome of the previous battle?"
"I did," Wang Teng replied calmly, paying no mind to Le Tun's disdain, just offering a slight smile.
"Even after seeing it, you still want to challenge me?" Le Tun observed Wang Teng's indifferent expression with growing intensity in his gaze. He seemed determined to discern whether Wang Teng was merely bluffing or genuinely confident.
"Do you need to rest?" Wang Teng asked, changing the subject.
Le Tun narrowed his eyes, studying the black-haired youth before him, puzzled by where he gathered such confidence.
The notion of Wang Teng even offering him a chance to rest struck him as somewhat amusing.
"Are you sure you want to challenge me?"
Le Tun asked, his tone now serious.
"Absolutely," Wang Teng affirmed.
"Very well!" Le Tun nodded, proud in demeanor. "I never refuse any challenge, and even if you're just a cosmos-stage warrior, I won't hold back. Everyone here saw it. It was you who wanted to challenge me, not the other way around."
"Of course," Wang Teng nodded again.
"Then let's begin. I'll let you make the first move," Le Tun declared, standing firm in the void with hands behind his back, not even retrieving the alchemy furnace that had been put away earlier.
Gasp!
Gasps erupted from below as the spectators were in disbelief that Le Tun had accepted the challenge from the black-haired youth. It was simply unthinkable.
"Are you sure you don't need to rest?" Wang Teng inquired.
"I don't," Le Tun replied.
Wang Teng furrowed his brows but said nothing more, immediately activating the True Dragon Battle Physique (pseudo).
Boom!
The Emerald Glazed Flame erupted, swiftly contracting and covering his body, transforming into mystical azure flame scales.
"Hmm?" Le Tun's expression showed a hint of surprise.
The youth before him seemed genuinely formidable.
However, the unexpected turn of events was far from over.
Boom!
Another resounding roar emanated from within Wang Teng's body as the Ancient God Physique activated, manifesting as a mysterious golden pattern at his brow.
Then…
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Five-Element Divine Physique was activated. Force infused into the five internal organs, swirling into vortexes, and strange powers instantly spread throughout his body.
A terrifying momentum erupted from Wang Teng's body.
His black hair danced wildly in the fierce wind, accentuating the myriad changes, rendering him akin to a deity or demon.
Le Tun's expression finally changed.
Boom!
Wang Teng didn't give him time to react. His body vanished from the spot, transforming into a residual shadow, charging straight ahead, the air resounding with explosive noise.
"Go!"
At this moment, Le Tun dared not be arrogant. He immediately pointed his finger, summoning the alchemy furnace and hurling it towards Wang Teng.
But Wang Teng remained unfazed, grinning widely. With a punch, he struck directly at the alchemy furnace.
Bang!
A dull sound echoed.
The furnace caved in, then uncontrollably flew thousands of meters away.
Wang Teng stomped again, his speed akin to lightning, rushing forward. In an instant, he appeared before Le Tun, fists clenched together, and hammered down fiercely from above.
Boom!
The air bore clear traces of compression as if a shockwave was crashing toward Le Tun.
Le Tun's pupils contracted, too late to make any other reaction. He lifted his hands to block, crossing them above his head in an attempt to withstand Wang Teng's strike.
However, an immense force came from the opposite direction, causing his expression to change drastically. His entire body flew uncontrollably backward, mirroring the trajectory of his alchemy furnace.
This scene left the spectators dumbfounded as if they had witnessed a supernatural event.
Silence!
A profound stillness enveloped the earth and sky!
Simple!
Brutal!
Wang Teng's series of attacks happened too quickly. In the blink of an eye, he had sent Le Tun flying without giving him a chance to react.
Yet, at this moment, Wang Teng didn't pursue, standing still in his place.
"You…" Le Tun managed to stop his momentum, his gaze filled with shock as he looked at Wang Teng.
Such terrifying power!
Even his hands couldn't help but tremble. If his strength weren't sufficient, that blow just now would have broken his hands.
Who was this person? How could he possess such strength?
"That was just a warm-up. You should rest for a while. I don't want to fight someone who's already depleted, lest others accuse me of unfairness," Wang Teng said calmly, arms crossed, showing no urgency to attack.
In the Realm Space, there was no consumption of Force, but each battle burdened the spiritual body and required rest for recovery.
Le Tun had just fought Gregory, so his spiritual body was undoubtedly weaker than before.
"Very well." Le Tun took a deep breath, casting a profound gaze at Wang Teng, then sat down cross-legged on the ground, beginning to recuperate from his previous exertions.
