High-level martial arts: Starting with a heart of steel, stats crush everything.

As Gu Feng roared, Yang Zuo realized that he couldn't take the blow head-on.

He lightly touched the ground with his toes, dodging Yang Zuo's blow like a butterfly flitting among flowers.

However, Gu Feng's strike was just a feint; his real killing move was the follow-up attack!

"Tiger-Subduing Claw!"

Gu Feng seized the opening when Yang Zuo dodged, his black and gold hand transforming into a tiger claw, fiercely grabbing at Yang Zuo's chest.

Stab it!

Yang Zuo's clothes were torn to shreds by this claw, and even his sickly pale skin was ripped open with four deep cuts that revealed the bone.

Blood flowed down his fair skin as Yang Zuo touched the wound on his chest.

A somewhat sickly smile appeared on Yang Zuo's face.

"Very well, you are qualified and capable of making me go all out."

Yang Zuo pointed his spear at Gu Feng, his entire body crackling with lightning, and even the ground was showing traces of char.

Gu Feng frowned. His indestructible body could only resist physical damage, and it wasn't very effective against electrical damage.

"A swift and decisive victory!"

Gu Feng slammed his long staff down, and his entire body transformed into a blur as he charged toward Yang Zuo.

"Divine powers of heaven and man, a movement technique outside the body!"

Yang Zuo's figure began to blur, and three identical figures appeared on the arena.

"Cheating! This is cheating!"

The audience shouted in unison when they saw three Yang Zuo appear on stage.

"This isn't fair! What kind of skill is it to fight three against one!"

"No, do you all remember why the Celestials are called the Celestials?"

The commentator's expression also darkened, and he spoke in a low voice.

"The Celestial Race is born with a divine power, which is why they stand above all other races!"

"There is currently no record of Yang Zuo possessing any Celestial Divine Power, which is a disadvantage that Gu Feng must face!"

"There's only one thing we can do, and that's to cheer for Gu Feng!"

Although the commentator was biased towards the human race, his professional ethics prevented him from uttering profanities.

"What!?"

Gu Feng had many speculations about Yang Zuo's supernatural powers.

But he never imagined that Yang Zuo's Celestial Divine Power would be so abnormal!

With three Yang Zuo attacking simultaneously, Gu Feng had no way to avoid this attack that left no blind spots.

"Indestructible!"

With no way to avoid it, Gu Feng could only take the blow head-on, but he didn't forget his long-prepared killing move.

Ding!

It's sizzling!

Dazzling sparks flashed across Gu Feng's body, and his originally dark gold skin appeared to be on the verge of collapse under the high-voltage electric shock.

His body also stiffened under the electric shock, and his movements became slow.

But Gu Feng gritted his teeth and unleashed his long-prepared killing move.

"Great Sun Fiery Staff! Explode!"

The temperature of the Chaotic Sea Steel Staff in Gu Feng's hand rose sharply, and the high temperature even caused the surrounding air to distort.

With a soft "pfft," this deadly move struck Yang Zuo precisely on the top of his head, spraying red and white matter all over the ground.

"Hit!"

The commentator jumped up with a shout, staring intently at the situation on the stage, even forgetting his own job.

"No, this isn't the real thing!"

Gu Feng realized this the moment he struck Yang Zuo's skull and immediately turned around to look back.

Unfortunately, it was too late. The indestructible shield on his back had been broken by the high-voltage electric shock, and Yang Zuo's Silver Dragon Spear pierced through his chest without any resistance.

"I won." Yang Zuo smiled slightly, quite satisfied with the battle.

"Who told you you won?"

Gu Feng grabbed the spear that had pierced through his body, and the Chaotic Sea Steel Staff in his hand burst into flames once more.

"burst!"

A terrifying surge of energy gathered within the Chaotic Sea Steel Staff, and the high pressure directly caused the staff in his hand to explode.

Gu Feng's idea was simple: even if he lost, he would never let Yang Zuo get away with it.

A violent explosion resounded through the sky, and dust mixed with smoke enveloped the entire arena.

"What happened?! What's going on?!"

Even the commentator couldn't see what happened in that brief moment, so he quickly pulled up the high-speed camera footage to check what had just happened.

Soon, the smoke and dust dissipated, and the two blood gourds were still standing on the arena.

Gu Feng's entire arm was blown to pieces, leaving only bone, and his once handsome and masculine face was now covered in a beehive.

"How is it..." Gu Feng's hoarse voice rang out as he barely opened his eyes and looked at Yang Zuo opposite him.

"You weren't feeling well either, were you?"

Yang Zuo's clothes were blown off his entire upper body, his skin was charred black, and many fragments of the Chaotic Sea Steel Staff were embedded in his flesh.

"It really hurts." Yang Zuo spat out a mouthful of blood, then smiled and raised his head.

"Unfortunately, you still bombed the wrong person."

"Varied...."

Gu Feng was stunned for a moment before realizing that a figure had appeared behind him.

puff!

The spear pierced Gu Feng's throat, lifting him off the ground.

"You are strong, but your combat awareness is too weak. You have never been able to find my true form."

Yang Zuo threw the completely unconscious Gu Feng to the ground and slowly walked off the stage.

"I'll spare your life today. Come and challenge me again when you're stronger."

Silence, deathly silence.

No one expected that the human race's top genius's desperate killing move would just... miss.

The atmosphere in the entire arena instantly plummeted to freezing point, with only the emergency medical team and mentalists rushing onto the stage to rescue Gu Feng.

"It seems the final champion has emerged. Let's cheer for Yang Zuo!"

The commentator's tone also became somewhat disappointed. Gu Feng had tried his best but failed to seriously injure Yang Zuo, which was a huge blow to the human race.

The audience became very quiet and left the Yanjing No. 1 Sports Center one by one.

Tomorrow's match is meaningless; Chen Mo is definitely no match for Yang Zuo.

The result has already been achieved, so why bother with any more futile efforts?

...

"This is a bit difficult to deal with..."

Chen Mo rubbed his chin; this kind of opponent really tested one's perception...

"Hey, the fact that you can create clones is actually a good thing for me."

Chen Mo grinned, thinking that Yang Zuo should create more avatars so that he could fight a few more times.

He also took a closer look at the "Tempered Heart" buff.

With this thing's damage increased fivefold, its maximum health increase also increased fivefold.

In other words, when your heart is in a "steeled" state, the benefits of using "steel" are five times greater than in a normal state.

With nearly three thousand health points gained in one go, Chen Mo was already eager to try his luck.
