Shocking the Audience

"Sure enough, the Hell Messenger is stronger!"

"Yeah, the Hell Messenger has already dealt with all his opponents, while No. 1245 hasn't even taken down one!"

"You can't put it that way. Didn't you see how absurd No. 1245's defense is?"

"Although the Hell Messenger is powerful, he might not necessarily be able to break through No. 1245's defense!"

"That's right. The reason No. 1245 managed to achieve sixty-seven consecutive wins is because no one has ever been able to break his defense!"

"..."

The spectators began discussing the scene before them animatedly.

Some believed Mu Ge was stronger, while others thought the burly man numbered 1245 was stronger.

Bibi Dong sat there watching the Hell Slaughter Arena, and no one around her still dared to approach.

"This bastard had better not die up there!"

Bibi Dong watched Mu Ge and cursed inwardly.

She desperately wanted Mu Ge dead, but she did not want him to die so soon at someone else's hands.

In Slaughter City, she still needed to use Mu Ge to clear away the effects of her baleful aura!

"Damned stinking man!"

In another corner, a woman was also staring at Mu Ge in the Hell Slaughter Arena and grumbling to herself.

She was Nightingale, the future Slaughter Envoy, who was currently only a Slaughter Maid.

Over the past month or so, Mu Ge had only sought her out once. The rest of the time, he had been all over Bibi Dong. Naturally, Nightingale could not help feeling jealous and resentful.

Yet beneath that resentment, Nightingale was genuinely worried about Mu Ge's upcoming battle.

Pfft—

A full half hour later, No. 1245 Burly Man finally relied on his astonishing defense to wear down his opponents before dealing with the other four.

Although Mu Ge had not stepped in to clear out the minor fodder, simply watching from the side had placed immense psychological pressure on the four Fallen Ones.

Otherwise, No. 1245 Burly Man would not have been able to deal with them so quickly.

"Kid, come on. Let me see whether you can break my defense!"

After dealing with the others, the burly man slammed the two shields in his hands onto the ground and looked at Mu Ge as he spoke domineeringly.

Clearly, despite taking so much longer than Mu Ge to defeat his opponents, he remained confident in his own strength.

It was clear that despite fighting for so long, his breathing remained steady. He had only suffered a few superficial wounds, which would not affect his combat ability.

"Then be careful!"

Hearing the burly man's words, Mu Ge smiled faintly.

Then, Mu Ge withdrew his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit, and the lightning weaving around his body gradually faded.

Immediately afterward, as Mu Ge made a domineering grasping motion with his right hand, a Clear Sky Hammer brimming with heaviness and power gradually condensed in his hand.

"That is..."

"That's the Clear Sky Hammer. There's no mistake—it's the Clear Sky Hammer..."

"How is that possible? How did the Hell Messenger's martial soul turn into the Clear Sky Hammer?"

"His martial soul is the Simulator. He can simulate any martial soul..."

"I never expected him to simulate even the Clear Sky Hammer. I thought the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon was the strongest martial soul he could simulate. Who would have thought he even had the Clear Sky Hammer of the Clear Sky Sect, the strongest sect!"

"That isn't strange. Otherwise, why would the Clear Sky Sect be hunting him down?"

"He increases the success rate of his simulations by killing others and devouring their martial souls. No wonder people are after him!"

"Haha, I heard that at first, he could only simulate low-quality martial souls. He couldn't even simulate high-quality ones, so he chose to devour other people's martial souls for simulation..."

"..."

When they saw Mu Ge switch his martial soul to the Clear Sky Hammer, the spectators erupted into an uproar.

Some knew Mu Ge's identity, while others did not.

But even those who knew that Mu Ge's true martial soul was the Simulator had not expected him to be capable of simulating the Clear Sky Hammer as well!

"What an absurd martial soul. Doesn't that mean he alone has already mastered two martial souls from the Upper Three Sects?"

"Maybe he's even simulated the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

"Hiss—now that you mention it, that really is possible. Isn't this martial soul far too outrageous?"

"Yeah. Having one martial soul is equivalent to having every martial soul..."

"Hmph, so what if he has many martial souls? It's all flashy nonsense. Mastering so many martial souls only proves he isn't proficient in any of them. He might be fine against ordinary Soul Masters, but if he encounters a powerful opponent with a top-tier martial soul, he definitely won't be a match for them!"

"That makes sense. Still, I think he's rather smart. He has only used the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul all this time, which shows that he knows he can't be greedy for too much..."

"Looking at it that way, we can just treat him as a Soul Master with a top-tier martial soul..."

"That was always the case. Besides, this is Slaughter City. What use is such a martial soul here? He still can't use soul skills..."

"If we're talking about power, the Slaughter Saintess's talent is still stronger. She has Twin Martial Souls. No matter how special the Hell Messenger's martial soul is, he still only has one. The Slaughter Saintess has two, and both are top-tier martial souls!"

"..."

Once everyone learned about Mu Ge's martial soul, the clamor grew even louder.

Just as Mu Ge had expected, although they were shocked by the uniqueness of his martial soul, they were merely somewhat envious. What truly left them envious and awestruck was still Bibi Dong's talent.

Bibi Dong, who sat quietly in the corner, noticed the glances constantly being cast her way, and a trace of pride flashed through her eyes.

Even she herself believed that her talent was the strongest—unmatched in the world, the greatest in history.

Even the first person in history to possess Twin Martial Souls was inferior to her, because that person's twin martial souls had not been top-tier martial souls.

She knew Mu Ge's martial soul was far more than what he had displayed—for instance, how he had mastered so many Self-Created Soul Skills, and how he had learned the Clear Sky Hammer's secret techniques that were never passed down to outsiders.

But even so, she still believed her martial souls were stronger than Mu Ge's.

The only reason she could not defeat Mu Ge here in Slaughter City was entirely because soul skills were restricted.

"The Clear Sky Hammer? Perfect. I've long wanted to test its power myself, to see whether the Clear Sky Hammer can break through my defense without the support of soul rings and soul skills!"

"Come on, kid!"

After seeing Mu Ge switch his martial soul to the Clear Sky Hammer, No. 1245 Burly Man showed wariness in his eyes, but an intense fighting spirit also erupted from him.

"In that case, I'll grant your wish!"

Mu Ge looked at the burly man and smiled calmly.

Whoosh—

Then Mu Ge swung the Clear Sky Hammer and smashed it directly toward him.

Bang—

The burly man did not dodge, nor did he think he could. He raised the shields in both hands before him and stood firmly in the path of Mu Ge's attack.

Boom—
