Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
Behind Liu Zihan, the phantom of a gigantic python slowly emerged. Its huge triangular eyes glinted coldly as its forked tongue flicked in and out!
Beast Ability!
Yang Chen noticed the change in Liu Zihan. When he looked over, he saw Liu Zihan's ability erupt!
Beast Abilities were rare among ability users, and they were high-quality abilities.
Liu Zihan was an S-Class ability user with a Beast Ability!
"You deserve to die!"
A stream of white air issued from Liu Zihan's nostrils.
Combined with the enormous python's phantom behind him, it made for a terrifying sight.
The Grandmasters nearby all looked toward Liu Feng. Only after Liu Feng gave a slight shake of his head did they hold back.
After all, even an experienced S-Class ability user like Liu Zihan was no more than a child before a Grandmaster!
If they wanted to, they could capture Liu Zihan before he even had time to use his ability.
Clearly, the Grandmasters weren't making a move.
Or rather, Liu Feng wouldn't let them!
Liu Feng watched Yang Chen with interest. Although he'd heard something about Yang Chen's strength from Chen Tianxin, he still wanted to see Yang Chen's strength and talent for himself.
Especially that certain someone.
And Liu Zihan, an S-Class ability user, was the perfect test subject!
Liu Zihan was no weakling. He was among the strongest S-Class users, already halfway through the door to becoming a Grandmaster. Otherwise, he couldn't have stood out among so many S-Class experts and become the mayor of Jiangnan City!
After all, Jiangnan City was the heart of the entire Jiangnan region. Becoming its mayor required considerable ability and strength!
Clearly, Liu Zihan had what it took!
Liu Zihan's neck twisted strangely. Scales surfaced all over his body, making him look like a scaled animal.
Then his entire body surged into motion. With incredible speed, he charged at Yang Chen and threw a punch!
Yang Chen's gaze tightened slightly. Liu Zihan was powerful—even stronger, by Yang Chen's estimation, than the S-Class Flying Tiger!
Yang Chen's eyes flickered. If I were still A-Class, I might have been wary of you. But now, what are you?
Yang Chen was getting irritated. He hated it when he beat the younger ones and the older ones came looking for trouble, so he decided to hold nothing back.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
Flames burst everywhere, scorching at an extreme temperature as they enveloped Yang Chen's body.
Yang Chen became like a giant of fire. With every gesture, flames seared the air, and the space around him warped slightly.
Yang Chen threw a punch straight at Liu Zihan.
But Liu Zihan was an experienced fighter. Even in his fury, his fighting instincts remained sharp. His body twisted strangely, like that of a boneless creature, and he dodged Yang Chen's punch!
He moved like a python, one arm shooting out like a rope and coiling around Yang Chen's arm. The flames covering Yang Chen's arm were extinguished at once!
Yang Chen's body trembled. He saw Liu Zihan's other arm swinging toward him.
"Get lost!"
Yang Chen's blood-and-qi power erupted in an instant. A terrifying force burst across Liu Zihan's body.
Dense blood-and-qi power swirled around Yang Chen. Liu Zihan was knocked back several steps before he managed to stop.
Liu Zihan looked at Yang Chen warily.
Anyone who could knock him back was surely no weaker than he was!
Although anger had clouded his judgment, Liu Zihan still retained a sliver of clarity. He could make a rough assessment of his opponent's strength.
Even so, Liu Zihan wouldn't hold back!
As soon as Liu Zihan regained his footing, spiritual energy surged. The giant python's phantom behind him instantly turned into a streak of light and shot into his body.
Under Yang Chen's gaze, Liu Zihan's body suddenly swelled. Dense scales surfaced across his skin.
His whole body began transforming into a python!
This was a special ability unique to Beast Ability users!
Possession!
Beast Abilities could not only enhance their users' physical capabilities, but also let them possess their users, allowing their bodies to reach the level of a Spirit Beast for a brief time!
After all, Spirit Beasts were inherently much stronger than humans at the same cultivation level.
That was why Beast Ability users had a tremendous advantage over others at the same level!
Feeling Liu Zihan's aura grow stronger and stronger, Yang Chen grew increasingly serious.
Still, he felt no worry at all.
Spirit Beasts had powerful bodies, but Yang Chen's Grandmaster Body was even stronger!
The saying "everyone beneath the Grandmaster level is an ant" wasn't just for show!
It was backed by real strength!
And Yang Chen's claim to be invincible beneath the Grandmaster level wasn't just talk, either!
No matter how strong Liu Zihan was among S-Class ability users, he was still only S-Class. Yang Chen was a physical Grandmaster!
Yang Chen's dislike of Liu Zihan had reached its limit. He decided to stop holding back. His Flame Ability instantly reached its peak, and he also began channeling his physical strength.
Yang Chen didn't plan to use his other abilities. There were too many Grandmasters and stronger experts here, after all!
Too many eyes were watching!
"It's time to end this farce!"
Yang Chen murmured. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes and landed on Liu Zihan.
Liu Zihan had only just completed his Possession when a sense of fear began to spread through him.
His Python Ability was trembling!
It was as if he had encountered an unbeatable foe!
"How could this be?!"
Liu Zihan suddenly looked up and met Yang Chen's indifferent gaze. His heart tightened, and then Yang Chen disappeared from his field of vision!
When Yang Chen reappeared, he was suddenly right in front of him. Flames engulfed Liu Zihan's eyes.
Then Liu Zihan felt an intense pain spread across his face, and his mind grew hazy.
Thud!
A deafening crash rang out as Liu Zihan's body traced an arc through the air and slammed hard into the floor!
