Serious Punch!

Awoo!

Within the Gama Empire, somewhere in an unnamed mountain wilderness, there was a breathtaking scene!

A massive white dragon over a hundred meters long collided violently with a golden figure barely one or two meters tall!

Boom...

White and gold light instantly filled both sides of the sky. The violent explosion caused by the clash of immense power blasted the surrounding area for nearly ten miles into a massive crater!

The aftermath, as fierce as an eighteen-level typhoon sweeping through, filled the entire area with dust and ash. When the dust finally settled, the enormous white dragon had vanished without a trace.

Only Gu Xia remained, still maintaining his refined gentlemanly appearance and attire. Indifferently, he patted the nonexistent dust from his shoulder, then paused briefly before heading straight beneath the ancient wall. He carefully examined the stone wall carved with countless profound and mysterious patterns.

After Gu Xia had blasted the white dragon into nothingness with a single punch, the strange formation patterns carved upon it seemed to have been activated. Each one gradually began to glow...

Gu Xia narrowed his eyes. Under his gaze, a line of words slowly condensed upon the stone wall that the Li Clan Patriarch had called the Ancient Saint Ruins...

"Please choose choose the correct option option from the following choices..."

Gu Xia: "?"

Just when he thought some supernatural phenomenon was about to occur again, the line that condensed on the stone wall left a huge question mark hanging over Gu Xia's head...

"Suppose a one-star Dou Saint can chop down thirty ancient trees per second without using Dou Qi, while a Dou Venerable can chop down twenty-five ancient trees per second without using Dou Qi. If the Dou Venerable starts chopping trees thirty seconds before the Dou Saint, how many seconds later will the Dou Saint catch up to the number of ancient trees chopped down by the Dou Venerable?"

Gu Xia: "..."

One: Why would a Dou Saint compete with a Dou Venerable in chopping trees?

Two: Are you sure the Dou Saint and Dou Venerable are chopping trees?

Three: I want to know if those numbers are serious.

Four: I'm not a Dou Saint, so how would I know?!

"..."

As Gu Xia stared at the all-too-familiar problem, he felt as though he had returned to those happy days when there had been only one unknown, x...

Gu Xia sighed softly and silently made his choice...

However, thirty minutes later...

"Sorry, you selected the wrong answer. Would you like to restart the quiz?"

When he saw that sentence on the stone wall for who knew what time, a throbbing vein slowly appeared on Gu Xia's forehead...

As for what Gu Xia had experienced over the past half hour, perhaps only he himself knew...

Taking a deep breath, Gu Xia tried his best to suppress the fury in his heart. He patiently selected "Yes" and began another round of questions... However...

"Sorry, you selected the wrong option. Please..."

Finally, after getting it wrong for the nth time, Gu Xia's face darkened completely. Killing intent gradually spread from him. He really had to be full of himself to sit here playing multiple-choice questions with this damned ruin. Wouldn't it be better to smash this piece of junk with one punch? Why did he have to obediently listen to it and answer these utterly ridiculous questions?

Boom!...

Driven by his anger, Gu Xia threw a Serious Angry Punch at the stone wall before him. After a deafening explosion, the stone wall that he had expected to be reduced to rubble remained standing firmly in place.

If there was any difference at all, it was that the bizarre, trashy questions on the stone wall had disappeared. Even the strange formation patterns had vanished completely, as though they had never existed...

"This..."

Feeling as though he had broken free from some illusion, Gu Xia looked around at his current situation in surprise.

He was actually still standing only a short distance in front of where he had just slain the white dragon!

Before Gu Xia could react, crisp cracking sounds—"Crack, crack, crack..." —came from the direction of the stone wall...

The cracking grew denser and denser until, at a certain moment, all sound abruptly ceased. Then, the enormous stone wall nearly thirty meters tall exploded apart!

Facing the flying fragments of stone, Gu Xia merely frowned slightly. With a casual wave of his right hand, a pale golden barrier blocked every fragment hurtling toward him...

Within seconds after the stone wall exploded, a white beam about as thick as three people embracing it shot into the sky from where the wall had stood!

As the beam appeared, people in areas not far from the ruins were all drawn toward the white pillar soaring into the heavens...
