Zhao Guang's face was as dark as still water. His simple words had calmed the situation.
The golden-armored general named Liu Yi didn't know what to do at that moment.
Hao Ren pushed his chair away and walked forward a few steps.
He took off the golden token that represented the Commanding General from his waist, waved it, and threw it toward the palace on his left.
Bang!
Hao Ren lightly slammed the table, and a chopstick flew into the air. He flicked it with his fingernail, and the chopstick chased after the token like a javelin.
Ding … Hum!
The chopstick pierced into the beam under the plaque of the Guangling Palace, which was a few hundred meters away, and it was still vibrating slightly.
Hua, hua, hua, hua …
The token dangling from the chopstick swayed left and right.
The token was shaped like a jade pendant, and there was a small hole for a string. Hao Ren's chopstick pierced right into the hole.
The chopstick was made of hundred-year-old sandalwood, but the beam of the palace was made of thousand-year-old sandalwood!
Hao Ren's move stunned everyone.
"If you can get the token, the position of Commanding General is yours." Hao Ren looked over the crowd and looked at the golden-armored general named Liu Yi lightly.
Liu Yi looked at Hao Ren and then at the token on the beam of the palace.
"I don't want to be the Commanding General. If I can defeat you, I'll let Third Lord continue to be our Commanding General!" Liu Yi yelled in a rough voice.
"That's fine." Hao Ren nodded.
"You … are guilty!" The golden-armored general saluted and stomped his right foot on the ground. His entire body flew toward Hao Ren like a golden cannonball.
Hao Ren took a step back with his right foot and tilted his body to the side. His right hand pressed against the general's fist, circled it, and slammed his shoulder into Liu Yi's chest.
Leveraging Force to Hit Force!
Liu Yi was pushed back five steps.
Hao Ren pushed him back five steps with one hand.
The elders all looked at Hao Ren in surprise.
Only Zhao Kuo knew that although Liu Yi's punch seemed powerful, it was actually just a probing move. It was also a polite exchange of blows.
Even though Liu Yi was displeased with the current Commanding General of East Ocean, he didn't dare to use a killing move.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Kuo had this thought, Liu Yi, who had retreated five steps, stopped his momentum and released a misty green light from his fists.
Because the responsibilities of generals and elders were different, the emphasis of their cultivation was also different. The elders focused on the battle of cultivation techniques and the proficiency in using their own magic treasures and pills, while the generals focused on the battlefield and close combat.
Therefore, even if the generals had reached Xun-level, they wouldn't condense dharma treasures. Instead, they would focus on making their weapons stronger and stronger.
While Liu Yi was channeling his nature essence, Hao Ren leaped up lightly and kicked at Liu Yi.
Peng …
Hao Ren's foot landed on Liu Yi's golden armor, and a dull thud sounded. This heavy golden armor was made of special materials. It was impervious to swords and spears and was very durable.
However, this buffer only lasted for an instant.
Hao Ren's force reached Liu Yi's chest, and Liu Yi was sent flying two meters into the air in his heavy armor.
Liu Yi wasn't an idiot. He somersaulted in the air and landed firmly on a round table behind him.
Crack …
The round table couldn't bear the weight of Liu Yi and his armor, and it broke into five pieces.
However, Liu Yi, who landed on the ground with the broken table, didn't move an inch.
"Take off your armor, or else you won't be able to defeat me," Hao Ren looked at him and said.
"I'm the General of the West Gate, and I will never take off my armor!" Liu Yi answered loudly.
Hao Ren's reminder sounded like an insult to Liu Yi.
For the generals who stayed in the territory of the East Ocean Dragon Clan and had to defend against enemies at any time, taking off their armor meant surrendering! The military discipline of the East Ocean Dragon Clan was strict, and the generals wouldn't take off their armor unless they changed shifts to sleep.
Even if it was a challenge to Hao Ren, General Liu Yi had to be ready to fight against the enemy at any time. If he took off his armor and an enemy suddenly attacked the West Gate, it would be a waste of time if he put on his armor and fought in a hurry.
Boom!
Liu Yi reached out his right hand.
A green dragon crescent blade that was leaning against the table was sucked into Liu Yi's palm.
"Commanding General, we, the soldiers of East Ocean, use our weapons against one person, one hundred people, and one thousand people! Don't say that I'm bullying you with my weapon! "Liu Yi said to Hao Ren with the green dragon crescent blade in his hand.
"No need to explain. I got it!" Hao Ren stood still and smiled.
He didn't hate this straightforward Liu Yi; on the contrary, he admired him a bit.
"Hey!" Liu Yi raised his green dragon crescent blade and hacked at Hao Ren.
Since he was a straightforward person, Hao Ren didn't plan to dodge with his body movements. He raised his hands and tried to block the blade.
"You underestimate me!" Liu Yi yelled and added 30% more nature essence to his hands.
He tried to test Hao Ren's strength, but Hao Ren knocked him back with one hand. Now, Hao Ren didn't dodge at all and used his bare hand to block his weapon. Wasn't this humiliating?
Liu Yi, who was a bit hesitant, was now ready to risk it all!
After all, there were many elixirs in the East Ocean Dragon Clan. Even if the Fuma was injured, he would recover in half a month! As for himself, he didn't care if he was sentenced to death! At least he would let everyone know that a Fuma who couldn't even defeat a city gate commander couldn't command millions of soldiers!
At this thought, Liu Yi's green dragon crescent blade emitted a chilly light!
This was because Liu Yi transferred his Xun-level nature essence into his weapons!
The momentum of this slash was astonishing.
Even the purple-robed elders panicked, afraid that Hao Ren wouldn't be able to block this strike. One had to know that cultivators who focused on cultivating their cultivation methods were often no match for generals of the same realm in close combat.
Dang!
The green dragon crescent blade hit Hao Ren's palm, and a crisp sound of the blade and the sword colliding sounded.
Hao Ren was wearing a wide-sleeved robe that looked like a traditional Chinese costume. When he waved his hands, he looked like he was singing an opera.
This golden-armored general was clad in heavy armor and wielded a heavy broadsword.
Their figures were both frozen, and the image of one soft and the other hard was very visual.
"It's the hidden sword in the sleeve!" Liu Yi yelled and put more force into his hands!
The realm of Xun-level was not to be underestimated. Liu Yi injected all his nature essence into the crescent blade, and he shook off Hao Ren's long sleeves.
With Liu Yi's strength, if he was in some of the smaller forces, he would be able to hold his own. At least, he was more than enough to be a general in those lake-type dragon clans.
However, the moment Hao Ren's sleeves were shaken off, everyone saw that Hao Ren didn't hide any weapons in his sleeves. Instead, he grabbed the blade with his bare hands!
"Wow!"
The soldiers couldn't help but yell.
They knew about General Liu Yi. As the general in charge of the west gate of the East Ocean Dragon Palace, he was very straightforward and powerful. Even some of the royal guard generals who were responsible for patrolling the East Ocean Dragon Palace were no match for him.
However, Hao Ren blocked Liu Yi's green dragon crescent blade with his bare hands!
The powerful elders sitting at the side of the table were able to see through some of the tricks behind it. A green light appeared in Hao Ren's palms as well. Hao Ren didn't really use his hands to catch the big blade. Instead, there was a layer of nature essence in his palms!
"You let me make one move first, so I'll let you make one move first," Hao Ren said loudly, "Now, let's begin!"
Wearing a helmet and holding the big blade, Liu Yi's face turned red. He yelled abruptly and lifted Hao Ren who was holding onto the tip of his blade!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The moment Hao Ren flew up, three sword energies shot out from his fingers.
Liu Yi used the green dragon crescent blade, and the tip of the blade spun as fast as lightning, slapping away the three sword energies.
His weapon wasn't as good as Zhao Kuo's Killing Tribulation, and his armor wasn't as heavy as Zhao Kuo's iron armor. However, he was quite proficient in using the heavy green dragon crescent blade to this extent.
The soldiers who were sitting further away all stood up, afraid that they wouldn't be able to see the battle at the main table.
They had never seen how strong this Prince Consort was before. Now that Hao Ren and Liu Yi were fighting, it was a good opportunity for them to broaden their horizons.
Bang!
Hao Ren landed on the ground steadily, and his fists, one in front and one in the back, got into a stance. It was the fundamental boxing technique!
His expression was no longer as calm as before, and it was replaced by a serious expression.
He was using the fist technique to fight with the blade technique!
"Too late!" Liu Yi dashed forward and flew up into the air.
His big blade slashed toward Hao Ren's face, and the people around him gasped. "This Liu Yi is for real! It seems like he is going to die no matter if he wins or loses this battle! "
Hao Ren stared at the huge blade that was slashing toward him and took half a step back.
The tip of the blade slashed a few centimeters in front of Hao Ren's nose, and Zhao Yanzi was so scared that she gasped and let out a high-pitched scream.
Xie Yujia also gripped the tablecloth beside her tightly.
Hua!
The big blade slashed down on Hao Ren's chest, but it stopped half a centimeter from the ground.
Liu Yi didn't want to destroy the square, so he held back his strength.
"Great blade technique!" Hao Ren couldn't help but praise.
The blade weighed at least a few hundred kilograms, and it took a lot of strength to stop it perfectly.
Hu …
The residual power of the blade split the dust on the ground into two.
Liu Yi's face was gloomy. He turned the tip of the blade and stabbed toward Hao Ren again.
Hao Ren jumped up gracefully and stepped on the back of the blade lightly. Six sword energies shot toward Liu Yi again.
Liu Yi hurriedly raised his saber horizontally, using the broad surface of the saber to cover his face, but his footsteps thudded three steps backwards.
"Humph!" Liu Yi wasn't convinced, so he swung his blade again.
This time, Hao Ren landed a solid Black Tiger Steals the Heart. His fist landed on the surface of the saber and created a shallow dent!
"Great fist technique!" one of the generals around them yelled.
This general was the patrol team leader who taught Hao Ren this set of basic boxing techniques. He thought that Hao Ren was just curious, so he taught him this technique. He didn't expect that Hao Ren had practiced it so hard that he had become so proficient in it that he could even fight West Gate's main fighter Liu Yi to a draw.
Liu Yi was anxious, and he punched at Hao Ren like a storm. Hao Ren retreated and punched at the same time, and his punches were steady!
After dozens of flurry of punches, the shiny Green Dragon Crescent Blade was filled with dents and looked extremely ugly.
"General Liu Yi can't beat Fuma …"
"One is at Xun-level, and the other is at Gen-level …"
"That fundamental fist technique is really good … I'm going to practice it hard tomorrow …"
"Fuma must be strong to be able to use the fundamental fist technique with such power …"
The soldiers who were watching the battle began to talk among themselves.
Liu Yi still couldn't break Hao Ren's defense with his favorite weapon, and his face was as red as a pig's liver. With a swoosh, a streak of nature essence shot out from the blade.
Hao Ren's palms retracted and released, and the streak of nature essence was absorbed by his palms!
"Liu Yi, stand down. I'll do it!"
Suddenly, another golden-armored general entered the fray with his black spear.
This person was the general of South Gate, Wang Sheng!
His black spear was like a swimming dragon, piercing toward Hao Ren's chest.
If they were to be punished, they would be punished together. If they were to die, they would die together! The commander of the South Gate, Wang Sheng, was also a very loyal general. He knew that if Liu Yi took the initiative to challenge and still lost, the outcome would be very ugly.
However, if the Fuma was defeated, it would prove that what Liu Yi said was true, and the generals would plead for his life!
Dang! Dang!
Hao Ren slapped away the tip of the spear with both hands and shot six sword energies toward Wang Sheng.
Liu Yi, who was holding the crooked green dragon crescent blade, froze when he saw Wang Sheng suddenly joining the battle.
"Come at me together!" Hao Ren yelled.
While he spoke, Hao Ren flicked another sword energy toward Liu Yi from his fingertips.
Liu Yi blocked the sword energy with his big saber. His blood was boiling, and he wouldn't stop now. Without thinking, he hacked at Hao Ren again.
Suddenly, it was one against two. The two generals were at Xun-level, and Hao Ren was only at Gen-level.
Hua! Hua!
Hua! More than a dozen sword energies shot out from Hao Ren's fingertips.
The two generals were actually forced to retreat again and again!
"As I said, whoever gets the token will be my loser!" Hao Ren said.
Liu Yi and Wang Sheng exchanged glances. Realization finally dawned upon them.
Wang Sheng's long spear stabbed toward Hao Ren's Shanzhong Acupoint, and Liu Yi jumped toward Guangling Palace.
Hua!
A sword energy that was half a meter long flew toward Liu Yi's back.
Liu Yi picked up his big saber and turned around to block it, but he was sent flying in another direction.
Hao Ren stretched his arms, one on the left and one on the right, and drew the bow continuously.
The sword energies shot out from Hao Ren's fingertips, and Liu Yi and Wang Sheng didn't even have a chance to move!
"You guys come together!" Seeing the other three gate generals holding their weapons hesitantly, Hao Ren yelled.
"As you command!" The three generals immediately rushed into the battle.
They meant that Hao Ren asked them to come, and they didn't want to bully Hao Ren with numbers. However, it was the same whether it was two against one or five against one. As long as Hao Ren lost, the five generals who had a deep relationship with each other could gain the upper hand.
"Five against one …"
The surrounding soldiers were all dumbfounded by what they saw.
Even though there was good wine on the table that they usually couldn't drink, they didn't want to touch it. Instead, they focused on the five against one situation in front of the main table.
The five generals were all at Xun-level. There were some differences in their realms, but their overall strength was similar.
Hao Ren, on the other hand, cultivated all five elements at the same time. In the same realm, his cultivation strength was five times that of other cultivators! The Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll also prevented these generals who were good at close-range combat from getting close!
"Take off the command medallion!" One of the five commanders shouted.
Since they had come this far, they might as well take off the token and make Zhao Kuo the Commanding General again!
The five generals rushed to the entrance of the Vast Spirit Hall in unison.
Hao Ren moved and rushed to the gate of Guangling Palace, and hundreds of sword energies were shot out!
There were dozens of sword energies a moment ago, but now, the sword energies rushed over like a flood, forcing the five generals to retreat ten steps each!
He flicked his fingers, and dozens of sword energies shot out from his sleeves toward the five generals.
His wide sleeves fluttered in the wind as he stood at the gate of Guangling Palace. He looked calm as if he could hold back ten thousand enemies!
The five generals in golden armor couldn't even defeat Hao Ren who was only wearing a red robe!
These generals would be forced back as soon as they took a few steps forward!
The token that represented the Commanding General of East Ocean hung above Hao Ren's head without moving a bit.
They could see it, but they couldn't get it!
"General Liu! General Wang! General Mo … "
Seeing that their boss couldn't defeat Hao Ren, the soldiers under the five generals gritted their teeth, picked up their weapons, and charged forward.
They would live and die together!
They would punish them together!
The soldiers were ready to risk their lives!
Hao Ren's hundreds of sword energies suddenly formed three rows!
Three Talents Heaven Earth Array Formation …
With the entrance of the Guangling Hall as the center, the sword light swept out in a semicircle pattern!
Hualala …
Hundreds of soldiers suddenly fell to the ground.
The five generals couldn't block the combined effect of the sword array formation, and they each took five steps back before they could barely stand.
The generals and soldiers who had regained their footing were about to charge at Hao Ren again when Zhao Kuo, who was sitting at the main table, yelled, "Enough!"
His shout froze the five generals and hundreds of soldiers in place.
Although Zhao Kuo's realm had dropped to Dui-level, his power didn't decrease! Both the generals and the soldiers shivered when they heard his angry roar!
"Haven't you embarrassed yourselves enough?" Zhao Kuo stood up with a dark expression. "Hao Ren didn't want to hurt you!"
The five generals with weapons in their hands all fell silent when they heard Zhao Kuo's reprimand.
The soldiers looked down at themselves and didn't see any wounds. Hao Ren's sword energies looked powerful, but they were actually blunt.
They attacked him as a group, but Hao Ren didn't want to hurt any of them!
"Hao Ren didn't even use his full strength!" Zhao Kuo widened his eyes and continued.
The soldiers who were fighting and those who weren't were all dumbfounded when they heard this.
"I'm willing to give the position of Commanding General to this kid. If any of you are not convinced, fight me!" Zhao Kuo patted his chest and yelled.
All the generals looked at Zhao Kuo and kept quiet out of fear.
"Even I lost to this guy. What else do you have to say?" Zhao Kuo continued to ask.
Hiss …
The soldiers and generals looked at Zhao Kuo in disbelief, and they couldn't help but gasp.
Even a super powerful person like Zhao Kuo lost to Hao Ren! What's more, Zhao Kuo admitted it herself!
"Humph!" Zhao Kuo sat back on his seat and looked at Hao Ren. "You are the Commanding General. You decide!"
