98: Chapter 98 Recruiting?
After landing the punch, Chen Moxuan pursued him again.
As his Spiritual Sense expanded, he discovered how irrational Wan Chaoren's body was.
He could feel that his solid punch just now had not caused any damage to Wan Chaoren.
A Transcendent possessed neither blood energy nor True Qi.
Yet, their bodies seemed to be nourished by some kind of faint light from the depths of their Souls, directly forging a physique far surpassing ordinary people, and even possessing an extremely long lifespan.
Martial Artist cultivation focuses on the Physical Body as a foundation, comprehending the ultimate principles of the Dao, then refining the Soul from the outside in, and finally knocking on the door of Heaven and Man resonance.
But Transcendents are the complete opposite of Martial Artists; it is more like they use their Souls to inversely sculpt a powerful shell that defies common sense.
But whether this was an illusion simulated by the Heart Refining Array or a real fact, Chen Moxuan could not yet draw a conclusion.
"Who are you?"
Wan Chaoren twisted his body in mid-air, his eyes mixed with a hint of anger, stopping his backward momentum.
Although it was his carelessness that started it, being slapped in the face in front of civilians had seriously damaged his image.
If this were to reach the Hero Association of other branches, it would definitely become a laughingstock for them to talk about.
Scarlet lasers condensed in his eye sockets again.
He wanted to burn the piece of trash who provoked him and the witnesses behind him into ashes.
The laser shot out, and Chen Moxuan drew a circle with his right hand; a crystal-clear water-shaped shield instantly appeared.
As the water waves flowed, that scorching laser was actually deflected and refracted, crashing through a corner of the teaching building.
"That's impossible!"
Wan Chaoren's pupils contracted violently, and the laser in his eyes suddenly doubled in thickness, the scorching high temperature evaporating Chen Moxuan's water-shaped shield layer by layer.
Just as the laser was about to pierce the person in front of him, his keen intuition suddenly issued a warning.
Wan Chaoren glanced sharply to the side, only to see that Chen Moxuan, who should have been in front of him, had strangely appeared to his side.
His right fist, wrapped in dark yellow True Qi, was like a collapsing mountain, thrusting out with a roar.
The moment the fist face collided with his cheek, a distorted shockwave exploded in a ring centered on the point of impact.
Wan Chaoren was hit as if by a giant hammer, flying backward enveloped in shattered air waves, bringing up a series of piercing sonic booms along the way.
"Boom!"
A loud noise shook the earth, and the powerful shockwave was like a hurricane passing through.
The windows rattled, and everyone present was blown so they couldn't open their eyes, their clothes rustling.
Thunder flashed, Chen Moxuan activated [Swift Thunder Body], his speed skyrocketing.
He stepped into the Void Realm, every step leaving a faint blue electric afterimage, and in the blink of an eye, he chased after the flying Wan Chaoren, disappearing from everyone's sight.
"What just happened?"
After the strong wind subsided, the classroom instantly exploded into chaos.
Everyone stared wide-eyed, unable to figure out the situation.
With the eyesight of ordinary people, they naturally couldn't keep up with the speed at which Chen Moxuan and Wan Chaoren fought.
They only felt an afterimage flash before their eyes, Wan Chaoren flew out, accompanied by a huge sonic boom, and a gust of wind blurred their eyes.
When they opened their eyes again, the two figures had already disappeared from their vision.
Only by the direction the afterimage swept past, it was not difficult to see that it was from the classroom.
"Where did Chen Moxuan go?"
Peng Jie subconsciously turned his head to look at the back row of the classroom, only to find that Chen Moxuan, who should have been standing there, had long since disappeared.
Because of Peng Jie's exclamation, the classmates all turned their heads in unison, and gasps rang out in the classroom one after another.
A thought grew wildly in everyone's mind:
"The one who just rushed over and knocked away Wan Chaoren... couldn't be Chen Moxuan, right?"
Someone suddenly screamed, their voice full of fear:
"Monster! Chen Moxuan is actually a Monster!"
Internal fighting is not allowed between Transcendents.
Therefore, Chen Moxuan, who possesses the ability to surpass ordinary people and openly opposes a Transcendent, must be a Monster.
"I said that kid was acting weird usually, often making anti-social comments, sure enough, there's a problem!"
"I even thought about visiting him at the hospital after his car accident before, but fortunately, I was delayed because my dog gave birth, otherwise I might have been treated as a Monster accomplice!" someone said with lingering fear.
They have been educated since childhood with the concept that Transcendents are supreme. At this moment, seeing Chen Moxuan standing on the opposite side of a Transcendent, everyone almost reflexively began to draw a line with him.
Whether it was sincere or fake.
Otherwise, once suspected by the Hero Association of being involved with a Monster, there is usually no good outcome.
"Everyone shut up! Don't guess blindly if you don't know, and don't talk nonsense about things you shouldn't!"
Teacher Ma suddenly raised his voice, sternly stopping the students' chattering, and looked out the window with a complex expression.
"With a battle between a hero and a Monster happening right now, it won't be long before an alarm sounds in the city."
"Now, everyone follow me to evacuate to the nearest shelter. Move quickly and maintain order!"
As Teacher Ma waved his hand, the students hurriedly packed their things and lined up amidst the sound of tables and chairs colliding.
As the crowd slowly moved, a strange shimmer quietly flashed by. A male student in the corner began to ripple and distort, gradually becoming transparent.
All memories in everyone's minds about this classmate also disappeared without a trace at this moment.
...
"Warning, please pay attention, citizens. A powerful Monster has appeared near the No. 3 Middle School of C City, and A-Rank Hero Wan Chaoren is currently fighting it."
"Citizens near the scene, please evacuate immediately."
A harsh alarm sounded suddenly.
High in the sky several kilometers away from C City No. 3 Middle School, air explosions sounded like thunder.
Two figures were entangled in a fight, each collision setting off a visible shockwave that spread like ripples, instantly stirring up the surrounding clouds.
After the first few rounds of fighting, Chen Moxuan's offensive gradually became sluggish, and he fell into a disadvantage.
After all, he had not yet stepped into the Tiangang Realm, and the Wan Chaoren in front of him, whether it was physical strength or defensive ability, far exceeded the Snow Shadow Tiger he had encountered before.
After possessing Spiritual Sense, he clearly perceived that the Power of Heaven and Earth here was as thin as gauze. The Immortal Heaven-Devouring Art, which usually operated smoothly, had its True Qi recovery speed greatly reduced after missing a large amount of free energy that could be absorbed from heaven and earth.
He could only rely on the meager sunlight to recover True Qi at less than one-tenth of his usual speed.
What's more troublesome is that he hasn't obtained the black god bracelet at this time, so many means cannot be displayed, and he can only fight Wan Chaoren in close-quarters melee.
His True Qi was about to bottom out.
Another heavy punch collision, the moment the two forces collided, the air made an unbearable explosion.
This time, the skin of Chen Moxuan's right hand cracked like a spider web, blood seeped out from the knuckles, and his figure retreated several steps.
Seeing that he had completely gained the upper hand, Wan Chaoren's anxiety gradually calmed down, the gloom in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by his signature fake smile.
He crossed his arms over his chest and said in a condescending manner:
"You are an Awakener, right? You're pretty good to be able to last this long under me."
"Why not be sensible and join the Hero Association? I can directly give you a B-Rank second-place position to start."
