"Fang Yi had reached War God Level, and he'd slain seven Lord Rank Monsters all by himself..."
Thunder Dojo, Wan Dong.
After reading the report, he froze for a moment, then, for some reason, laughed.
He had also recently received word that Luo Feng had entered the Elite Training Camp.
His heart was a tangle of emotions.
"I really can't catch up to them... One earned the title of War God at such a young age, and the other has already entered the Elite Training Camp. It won't be long before he becomes a War God, too. Compared to them, my growth is ridiculously slow."
Yangzhou City.
Ze Zi looked at the notice before him, then at the B-grade Gene Serum in his hand, and fell into a dilemma.
"Now, I can't even see the end of his trail..."
Taking a low-grade Gene Serum could raise a Martial Artist's level by one rank, but it also depleted their future potential.
Only Martial Artists who felt they had no prospects and could no longer improve would try taking one.
The military, the Alliance, and various other factions.
After receiving this notice, they truly regretted not making more attempts to recruit him at the time, and not offering a more tempting reward.
After evaluating him, they had reached a conclusion.
Fang Yi had a one-hundred-percent chance of reaching Beyond War God.
He was an irresistible prize. They could have tried to recruit him back then, but now that the Limit Dojo had announced him as a War God, it meant they had lost their chance for good.
The 26th.
Six days had passed since the agreed departure date of the 20th. Fang Yi hadn't taken a fighter jet back to the Training Camp; instead, he continued exploring the Australia Continent.
Fighting his way from the outskirts to the interior had taken Fang Yi quite some effort.
Using the Charm Enslavement Control Technique enhanced by his Double Pupil Eyes, Fang Yi deliberately gathered and lured in numerous Lord Rank Monsters. With this method, he had slain so many monsters that they were now in a state of panic.
They had no idea why this human was slaughtering them so relentlessly.
Could humanity be preparing to launch a counterattack?
Although he was only one human, he had still destroyed quite a few monster packs. There were far too many monsters for one person to clear them out in a short time, but letting him continue unchecked wasn't an option either.
Seeing this, the Lord Rank Monsters realized they couldn't afford to wait any longer.
They woke the King Rank Monsters that rarely stirred from their slumber. This, too, was one of Fang Yi's goals.
"I've never fought a King Rank Monster before. They're much stronger than Lord Rank Monsters, and fighting one will give me far more combat experience."
King Rank Monsters were terrifying. Only top High-level War Gods and those Beyond War God could stand against them.
Lord Rank Monsters were no longer a match for Fang Yi.
Only King Rank Monsters could still challenge him.
May 2nd.
Fang Yi completely wiped out a Silver Lightning Python nest.
As he was dissecting the corpses and collecting materials,
the entire valley began to shake. A series of scraping sounds and the crash of falling trees echoed through the area.
He looked into the distance.
At the edge of the mountainside, a Red-Toothed Giant Lizard suddenly burst out. Its body was covered in scales, crystals grew on all four limbs, and it was as enormous as a mountain!
Fang Yi immediately rolled and leaped away, while controlling a Flying Sword to hover beneath his feet.
"Red fangs, a scaly body, and sharp crystalline growths all over its limbs. A lizard-type monster... The Red-Toothed Lizard King?!"
"This size, this aura, and the changes to its scales and crystals... It's already stronger than an Advanced Lord Monster."
Fang Yi was delighted by the sight.
"A King Rank Monster!"
King Rank Monsters were rare even on Earth. The more famous ones were all incredibly powerful.
Most were around Planetary Level 4, 5, or 6.
This King Rank Monster hadn't reached that level, of course, but it was probably around Planetary Level 1 or 2.
An ordinary peak War God would likely have no guarantee of killing it.
"Xi—!"
The Red-Toothed Lizard King's pounce had missed.
It immediately stamped its hind legs, shaking the entire mountainside.
Countless rocks and trees snapped and tumbled under its terrifying brute strength.
Its mountain-sized body leaped into the air, and its nimble tail swept toward Fang Yi with enough force to mow down an army.
Fang Yi immediately controlled his Flying Sword to dodge.
Then he spun his War Halberd and, a smile on his face, launched into a fierce close-quarters fight with it.
At that moment,
the satellite overhead was scanning the Australia Continent and Fang Yi's movements at regular intervals.
It happened to catch the fight between the man and the monster.
The footage was immediately uploaded to Hall Master Hong of the Limit Dojo.
"A King Rank Monster... The Red-Toothed Lizard King. Fang Yi has already provoked one of these monsters into attacking?"
Hong clicked open the live footage, a smile on his face.
He watched as the man and monster clashed in a fierce, violent battle.
Fang Yi stood on his Flying Sword, spinning his War Halberd as he repeatedly attacked the monster's limbs and weak points. The halberd was sharp, and with the Creation Divine Light coating it, it could pierce the monster's scales.
But the Red-Toothed Lizard King was enormous and ferocious. Breaking its scales and wounding its flesh wasn't enough to kill it.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
With a single sweep of its tail, the Lizard King smashed into a mountain peak and sent it crashing apart. Countless rocks came hurtling toward Fang Yi at tremendous speed, like cannonballs.
Fang Yi rode his Flying Sword and dodged at lightning speed.
The Power of Analysis in his left Double Pupil Eye continuously scanned the space around him.
He saw every fragment of rock's trajectory in full.
Combining this with his footwork, Fang Yi effortlessly dodged the rain of rocks.
Then he surged forward against the onslaught, darting toward the Lizard King.
"Xi, xi, xi—!"
The moment Fang Yi drew near, the Lizard King swung its claws.
Its claws were sharp and enormous. An ordinary War God struck by one would be smashed into chunks of flesh.
But Fang Yi spun his War Halberd, using his footwork to slash through the scales on its claws.
The slash continued up its arm, across its body, and finally to its neck.
"Clang, clang, clang—!!" All the Flying Needles shot out, repeatedly stabbing at its weak points.
The Lizard King's scales were thick and tough, but even they couldn't withstand the Flying Needles' relentless strikes.
It had no choice but to keep moving its body and swinging its claws, relying on the vibrations of its scales and crystals to deflect the blows.
"That's more like it!"
Fang Yi fought to his heart's content. Ordinary Advanced Lord Monsters would be dealt with in just three moves.
After clashing with it, Fang Yi was certain that the Lizard King was at least Planetary Level 2. It was one of the most formidable monsters on Earth.
Meanwhile, someone had recorded the entire fight between the man and the monster and was watching with keen interest.
"Excellent footage. This fight has great educational value. Fang Yi's control over objects and use of the War Halberd are already at an instructor's level."
Hong planned to record the rest of the fight and upload the complete footage to the Elite Training Camp.
Elsewhere,
the fight between the man and monster was nearing its end.
By now, the Red-Toothed Lizard King's scales and most of the crystals protecting its body had been shattered by the Flying Needles and War Halberd.
The furious, vicious look in its eyes had given way to fear and disbelief...
Who was this human?
It knew many powerful humans, but this was the first time it had seen this man.
"Xi—!"
The Red-Toothed Lizard King let out one final wail.
The entire valley was covered in blood and shattered scales. The terrifying King Rank Monster had finally been slain by Fang Yi.
Its scales were all broken, its skin and flesh a bloody mess, and its limbs and head riddled with holes.
The War Halberd swept past like a crimson shooting star.
It cut in a circle from beneath the monster's neck. Blood sprayed from the halberd's blade as flesh tore and bones snapped. After completing the cut,
Fang Yi brought his foot down hard on its head.
The strike carried a terrifying Force Output of 6.5 times, further amplified by his Double Pupil Eyes operating at full strength!
The already-torn flesh and fractured bones immediately cracked under the stomp.
The next moment,
the Red-Toothed Lizard King's head fell from its enormous body and finally rolled into the valley.
A torrent of beast blood sprayed from the severed neck.
It was like a rain of blood, soaking the entire landscape.
"Without using the Double Pupil Eyes' offensive techniques or my charm control, I relied solely on the enhancement from the Double Pupil Eyes, my War Halberd and Flying Needles, and my brute strength to slay this King Rank Monster."
The battle
hadn't left Fang Yi seriously injured. Most of the attacks he'd taken were ones he hadn't needed to dodge.
The fight was over, and he still had plenty of strength left.
Even if another King Rank Monster just like it appeared, Fang Yi was confident he could slay it the same way. After this fight, he had a much clearer idea of his own strength.
"All right, time to collect the spoils."
Fang Yi happily began cutting up the colossal beast and gathering its remains.
Every part of a King Rank Monster was a treasure, and it sold for far more than a Lord Rank Monster.
After a fair bit of work, he had finished cutting up all the materials.
Fang Yi immediately contacted the Elite Training Camp staff to come and collect them. When the fighter jet landed in the only flat area in the valley,
the two War Gods who climbed out stared at the colossal body.
They swallowed hard.
Though both of them were War Gods, they couldn't say that they could easily deal with a Lord Rank Monster.
And this enormous beast was on another level altogether.
"A King Rank Monster?"
"Brother Fang Yi, you did this?"
Seeing their shocked expressions, Fang Yi could only laugh helplessly. Who else could have killed it?
After giving them a brief explanation, he helped them gather everything.
But the fighter jet couldn't carry all the valuable parts of the monster.
They would have to make several trips.
For convenience, and to guard against sudden attacks from nearby monsters, the two War Gods quickly contacted their colleagues. In the end, it took four fighter jets to transport all the materials.
Fang Yi was just about to continue his adventure
when he suddenly received a message from Hong.
"Come back. With your current strength, it's time to report to the War God Palace. Consider it a chance to get some rest."
After reading the message, Fang Yi boarded the fighter jet with the staff.
Back at the Elite Training Camp,
he would continue honing his skills and slaying the monsters that had occupied human cities.
