Yatalis Heaven and Earth Slash! Heaven's General Falls!

He was staring at the orb in Duanmu Ting's arms with an utterly greedy gaze.

This man was none other than the current Clear Sky Douluo—Tang Hao.

"Such pure, such vast and mighty energy!"

"If I absorb it, these injuries of mine should fully recover."

Tang Hao licked his slightly dry lips, his expression fervent as he fixed his eyes on Duanmu Ting not far away and spoke excitedly.

"Hahaha, I never thought I, Tang Hao, would encounter such a stroke of luck."

"That Heavenly Screen, an existence so great, dared to shatter the divine exam it bestowed. This Duanmu Ting is truly a fool!"

"Heh heh, how much strength do you have left now? What a windfall for me!"

"Hahahaha!"

Tang Hao thought gleefully to himself.

As he spoke, a domineering, pitch-black hammer appeared in Tang Hao's hand.

This was none other than the renowned Clear Sky Hammer.

Holding the Clear Sky Hammer, Tang Hao strode with immense confidence toward Duanmu Ting, who was still frozen in place not far away.

At the same time, nine spirit rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red—rose from his feet.

This movement jolted Duanmu Ting out of his stupor.

He furrowed his brow and looked toward where Tang Hao stood.

"A Title Douluo?"

By now, Tang Hao had also reached Duanmu Ting's side.

He glanced at the young, handsome man before him and snorted disdainfully: "Brat! Hand over that orb in your arms!"

"For the sake of you being a Person of the Ming Realm, This Seat will spare your life!"

Duanmu Ting seemed to hear something amusing and couldn't help but let out a scoff.

"I don't know who you are, but you just saw it, didn't you? The reward the Heavenly Screen gave me."

As he spoke, Duanmu Ting brushed the dust off his clothes.

He put away the orb that had condensed the four natural forces of the world—earth, water, wind, and fire.

"This Seat is Si Xiang Douluo, Duanmu Ting!"

"I really don't know where you get the Dog's Courage to try and rob me?!"

Tang Hao just snorted in response: "Bluffing!"

"The feeling of shattering a divine exam must be awful. How much strength do you have left now?"

As he spoke, Tang Hao slowly raised the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, pointing it at Duanmu Ting.

"I was going to spare your life for the Ming Realm's sake, but since you're so ungrateful, don't blame me for showing no mercy!"

With that, a gleam of excitement appeared on Tang Hao's face.

He seemed to already envision the state of recovering his strength after obtaining the orb containing the power of the Four Symbols.

"Don't blame me. If you must blame someone, blame your own greed!"

"If you'd handed over that orb sooner, you wouldn't have to suffer this calamity."

Tang Hao sneered, lifting his Clear Sky Hammer and walking step by step toward Duanmu Ting, his overbearing aura beginning to erupt.

Unfortunately, in Duanmu Ting's eyes, this terrifying aura seemed rather feeble.

"Remember this! The one who kills you is Clear Sky Douluo—Tang Hao!"

Tang Hao's legs tensed, and with a loud bang, he leaped into the air.

Raising the Clear Sky Hammer with both hands, it formed a crescent shape, then he slammed it heavily toward where Duanmu Ting stood.

Determined to kill Duanmu Ting in one blow.

But seeing this, Duanmu Ting remained unhurried. Even as the terrifying aura swept over him, he showed no sign of panic.

Though he had a handsome appearance, he was no pushover either.

Seeing this man still so clueless, daring to rob him of all people, how could he tolerate it?

And on top of that, he spouted nonsense about Duanmu Ting being gravely injured, like some idiot.

Especially after the Heavenly Screen's domineering behavior earlier, Duanmu Ting was already burning with rage.

He didn't know who this Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao was, but it just so happened that the fire blazing in his heart had no outlet.

Murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and a slow smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

Duanmu Ting let out a loud shout: "Thunder Yatales, the power of justice in this world!"

"Merge—!!"

The next moment.

A crisp clatter rang out.

The Thunder Yatales Armor had completed its assembly.

The terrifying soul ring configuration of five black and four red—nine rings in total—was revealed.

Duanmu Ting's right hand swept across the Melting Flame Element crest on his chest.

An incomparably terrifying scorching flame immediately surged up from his right hand.

At the same time, fearsome golden lightning crackled violently within the flame.

Then, his gaze sharpened as he looked at the enormous Clear Sky Hammer now inches away and roared: "Lightning Melting Flame Fist!"

This punch held nothing back; the vast soul power of a Ninety-eighth Rank Super Douluo surged forth entirely.

He was determined to vent the stifling frustration caused by the Heavenly Screen's overbearing actions.

Boom--!!

The two collided, instantly producing a terrifying Scarlet-Gold shockwave.

It spread outward in a circular shape.

Tang Hao only felt a heavy weight press down on his weapon; a monstrous force, carrying the momentum of mountains and seas, rushed toward him.

"How, how can..."

Before Tang Hao could voice the words in his heart.

A terrifying lightning flame instantly engulfed him, then blasted him flying.

Boom boom boom boom boom--!!!

"Aaaaahhh!!"

Tang Hao hurtled backward wildly, the Clear Sky Hammer already knocked from his hands.

Along the way, he kept smashing through thick ancient trees, yet his speed showed no sign of diminishing.

Bang--!!

With a dull thud, he finally came to a stop against a stone wall.

"Pfft!" Tang Hao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, staring in disbelief at the figure calmly walking toward him in the distance.

"How, how is this possible, how is this possible!"

"You clearly shattered the reward given by the Heavenly Screen—how do you still have such terrifying power!"

"This can't be! This can't be!"

Tang Hao's eyes were Scarlet Red, his breath ragged like an ox's, as he roared forward in fury and utter disbelief.

Seeing Tang Hao in this state, Duanmu Ting couldn't help but feel a trace of pity rise in his heart.

"How pathetic. A Title Douluo, yet so weak—what face do you have left to live in this world?"

Duanmu Ting shook his head as if deeply pained, then looked at Tang Hao and said softly: "Since that's the case, let me grant you release!"

The next moment.

Fearsome, domineering golden lightning, carrying an aura of utter annihilation, surged wildly from all directions.

Duanmu Ting reached his hand into the golden lightning and slowly drew out a dazzling Bright Gold sword of strange and striking design.

The Heaven and Earth Thunder Sword!

Duanmu Ting raised the Heaven and Earth Thunder Sword high above his head.

Instantly, dark clouds gathered in the sky.

They even shrouded Suotuo City.

Violent golden lightning churned madly within them.

Then.

Boom-crack--! Boom-crack--!

Boom-crack--! Boom-crack--!

The raging lightning inside began to strike down continuously, converging into the Heaven and Earth Thunder Sword.

In that moment, the entire Heaven and Earth Thunder Sword radiated a brilliant Golden Light.

Destructive lightning burst forth from it without cease.
