Chapter 118: Do you believe I can smack you into madness with a slap?
These past few months, in order to perform the Cleansing Marrow Washing Tendons process on his parents to strengthen their vitality, Yang Xiaotian had quickly used up over half of his Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water.
He had been thinking about looking for Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water once he got to Tiandou Academy, but he never expected to find it in the land of demons and monsters.
“What, Tribulation Thunder Water! There is Tribulation Thunder Water in this demon-infested land!” Master Ding, who was almost always in a slumbering state, suddenly woke up upon hearing about the Tribulation Thunder Water, “Quick, Xiaotian, let’s hurry up and follow them!”
Seeing Master Ding so excited, Yang Xiaotian laughed and said, “Master Ding, there’s no need to be so excited.”
Master Ding rolled his eyes, “You’re a satiated man who does not know the hunger of the starving.”
These days, it had been absorbing Tribulation Thunder Water for cultivation, and its supply of Tribulation Thunder Water had long been exhausted.
Under Master Ding’s urging, Yang Xiaotian followed the group of Thunder Academy students.
There were quite a few students from Thunder Academy, about fifty or sixty, almost all the students participating in the academy’s grand competition. The leading disciple was not weak, being in the mid-stage of the Martial King Quadruple layer.
Among the Thunder Academy students participating in the grand competition, there were two above the Martial King Quadruple layer, one being the Son of Thunder, and the other Chen Hailin.
This disciple at the late-stage Martial King Quadruple layer seemed to be Chen Hailin.
Yang Xiaotian followed behind Chen Hailin and the others, arriving at a dense forest.
Not long after entering the forest, they heard the sounds of fierce fighting and powerful fluctuations of energy.
Clearly, it was the Son of Thunder clashing with disciples from Divine Sea Academy and Yunhui Academy.
Upon hearing the sounds of battle, Chen Hailin and the other disciples from Thunder Academy quickened their pace.
Finally, everyone arrived at the scene.
There were five people involved in the conflict.
To be precise, it was four people surrounding and attacking the Son of Thunder.
Among the four assailants, one of them was Deng Yichun from Yunhui Academy, and the other three, one from Yunhui Academy, and the remaining two were students from Divine Sea Academy.
Deng Yichun, as the top disciple of Yunhui Academy, was already at the late-stage Martial King Quadruple layer.
The other three were not weak either, with two from Divine Sea Academy; one called Cheng Sheng, like Deng Yichun, at the late-stage Martial King Quadruple layer, and the other named Cheng Wu at the mid-stage Martial King Quadruple layer.
However, even with the four of them joining forces against the Son of Thunder, he remained composed and relaxed in his movements, effortless like a proud dragon, while Deng Yichun and the others appeared tense, struggling under pressure, often forced to retreat by the Son of Thunder’s powerful punches.
The Son of Thunder was nearly two meters tall and very muscular, especially his arms, which were extremely formidable.
Even from a distance, Yang Xiaotian could feel the oppressive aura emanating from the Son of Thunder.
This oppressive sensation was not merely from the Son of Thunder’s strength, but from the inherent pressure of his physical body.
“Innate Constitution?” Yang Xiaotian exclaimed in surprise.
Some geniuses have mutated Martial Souls, others have incredible insights, but there are also those with special innate physiques.
Those geniuses with special innate physiques have incredibly strong bodies and possess unique abilities.
However, geniuses with special constitutions are extremely rare.
This Son of Thunder must be one of the geniuses with a special physique, the oppressive aura he exuded being the result of his unique constitution.
“Indeed, this is the Body of Solar Thunder, one of the Innate Constitutions,” voiced Master Ding.
“Body of Solar Thunder,” repeated Yang Xiaotian.
“The Body of Solar Thunder is one of the Innate Thunder Bodies, and even among them, it’s considered to have quite formidable power,” added Master Ding.
Yang Xiaotian nodded his head.
Seeing Chen Hailin and the others arrive, the Son of Thunder threw a fierce punch, forcing Deng Yichun and his group to retreat simultaneously, then he stood with his hands behind his back.
“Senior Brother Lei, are you all right?” Chen Hailin hurried over and asked.
The Son of Thunder smiled wryly, “I’m fine.” He then glanced at Deng Yichun and the others, saying, “They can’t hurt me.” His tone was filled with immense confidence and also conveyed his disdain for Deng Yichun and his companions.
Hearing this, the faces of Deng Yichun and his group turned sour.
Cheng Sheng from the Divine Sea Academy said coldly, “Son of Thunder, you are just relying on your Innate Body of Solar Thunder. Otherwise, do you think you could be a match for the four of us?”
Upon hearing this, the Son of Thunder chuckled softly, “I am indeed relying on my Innate Body of Solar Thunder, but what about you? If not for the fact that you’re wearing several treasured armor garments, you would have been blown apart by my fist a long time ago.”
Deng Yichun and Cheng Sheng both choked on their words.
“Son of Thunder, even if you are strong, when our Yunhui Academy and Divine Sea Academy join forces, your Thunder Academy won’t be able to withstand us,” Deng Yichun spoke up. “Continuing this fight is pointless. Let’s split the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water behind this cave among our three academies.”
The Son of Thunder shook his head, “The Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water was discovered by me first; I want eighty percent.”
“Eighty percent!” Upon hearing this, Cheng Sheng became enraged, “You have quite the appetite, do you think you can handle it? If it comes down to it, let’s both suffer, we’ll just stay here in a deadlock, and no one will get the Tribulation Thunder Water inside!”
The Son of Thunder furrowed his brow, thought for a moment, and then said,
“Fine, our Thunder Academy wants half.” He then added with a grave voice, “That’s the lowest I will go.”
Deng Yichun and Cheng Sheng looked at each other in silence, and finally nodded in agreement.
However, just as the Son of Thunder, Deng Yichun, Cheng Sheng, and others were about to enter the cave to divide the Tribulation Thunder Water, they suddenly saw a small figure stepping out from the side.
“Yang Xiaotian!” Deng Yichun, the Son of Thunder, and the others could not hide their surprise, they had not expected Yang Xiaotian to appear here.
Yang Xiaotian walked directly up to the group, glanced at the cave behind them, and said, “I’m taking all of the Tribulation Thunder Water inside for myself. ”
Upon hearing this, Deng Yichun, Cheng Sheng, and the others couldn’t help but burst into incredulous laughter.
Even the Son of Thunder’s expression turned peculiar. He felt that his initial demand for eighty percent was already audacious enough, only to encounter someone even more brazen than himself.
“You want it all for yourself?” Deng Yichun stared at Yang Xiaotian as if he were a joke, after his anger subsided, “Yang Xiaotian, are you sure your head is screwed on right?”
Cheng Sheng also had a frosty look in his eyes, “Don’t think just because you’re some damn Sword Hall Master, I wouldn’t dare beat you to death. Do you believe I could smack you into madness right now!”
As his words fell, suddenly, a figure flashed. Cheng Sheng had not even reacted when he was struck in the stomach with a punch.
“Bang!”
This punch made Cheng Sheng’s internal organs churn, his entire stomach trembling uncontrollably.
An expression of excruciating pain crossed Cheng Sheng’s face as he was propelled backwards.
He crashed against a distantly placed ancient tree.
And sent the ancient tree flying.
Then he hit another ancient tree.
Finally, he slammed into a third ancient tree and stopped.
There was a moment of absolute silence.
All that could be heard was a gurgling sound from Cheng Sheng’s throat.
His entire face was twisted and deformed from the pain.
Deng Yichun was as stunned as a wooden chicken.
The Son of Thunder stood frozen in place as well.
All the disciples from Yunhui Academy, Divine Sea Academy, and Thunder Academy stared at Cheng Sheng, who was imprinted on the third ancient tree, having forgotten to breathe.
Cheng Sheng, a Martial King in the late stages of the fourth level, was sent flying by a single punch from Yang Xiaotian!
If the Son of Thunder had sent him flying, they would not have thought much of it, but it was Yang Xiaotian, with one punch!
