78: Chapter 78 Breakthrough to the Peak of the Sixth Order

"How is this possible..." Mu Cheng himself began to doubt his life.

Using the same move on the previous werewolves had some effect... but the current situation was clear.

It was like smashing an egg against a rock!

"Is this all the strength you have? It's really uninteresting." General Wolf had no intention of dealing a killing blow.

It was evident that he seemed to have some reservations; he only moved slightly to push Mu Cheng away.

"What's going on? He clearly had the chance, so why didn't he kill me?" Mu Cheng looked completely bewildered.

He suddenly remembered what Yu Guoguo had said earlier. "It seems that woman didn't deal a killing blow either..."

"Can't you be a bit more confident? Or should I let you practice? Big Sis isn't as foolish as you," Peppa couldn't help but say.

In the current situation, both sides actually had an agreement not to deal killing blows... otherwise, Yu Guoguo's previous move...

...would have insta-killed the entire army of a hundred thousand long ago.

"The problem is, what's going on? Is the army of a hundred thousand from the Ghost Wolf Clan here just for fun?" Mu Cheng was still very confused.

They came in such a grand manner, aren't they going to do something big? What on earth are they doing?

"Why ask so much? Anyway, all you need to know is that you won't die. I shouldn't need to explain the specifics, right?" Peppa had just finished speaking...

Chu Yaoyao piped up again. "By the way, what's the situation now? Is he out of his mind! He clearly has the strength of the peak eighth rank, yet he doesn't seem to be trying to kill you."

"Wait, that sister just said... could there be some kind of regulation?" She quickly realized.

Peppa: "All of you, this is none of your business. Anyway, just know they won't deal killing blows."

"Fine! I'll go help the others." After getting the answer, Chu Yaoyao charged straight toward the Ghost Wolf Clan army.

Although she was using her full strength, let alone facing an army of a hundred thousand, she was locked in a fierce battle with even a single one.

It couldn't be helped; when one person uses full strength and dares to kill, while the other holds back... a winner certainly won't be decided.

"Only the seventh ranks are left and haven't fled. I really don't know if this is a blessing or a curse." Yu Guoguo wasn't panicked at all, staying in control of everything.

She was well aware that the Ghost Wolf Clan army wasn't doing this for no reason... but rather, they would grow stronger every time they returned after being injured.

Originally, it was just her side that couldn't deal killing blows, and over time, the other side made the same choice.

That's how today's situation came to be... to put it clearly, this battle is merely a simulated combat.

To be even clearer, both sides are increasing their strength through simulated combat!

"Whatever, I won't think about it... I'll just go back and get things done first." Yu Guoguo didn't dwell on the reasons.

It had been like this for several days anyway; she had long since grown accustomed to this kind of life, so she left without a second thought.

"Fine! I'll give it a try." Mu Cheng naturally knew what to do.

Retracting his black gold spear, he circulated the Strongest Body Refining Technique, and a layer of dim energy enveloped his entire body.

"Come, come, let me see how strong you are." General Wolf felt the change in Mu Cheng's aura, which seemed a bit extraordinary.

So he became just a tiny bit serious...

The result... Mu Cheng couldn't even look cool for three seconds. With just one punch from General Wolf, he was sent flying quite a distance.

And he slammed hard into a black rock.

"This guy... gave me quite a scare, but it's really getting more interesting." General Wolf also let out a deep sigh of relief.

He thought Mu Cheng was strong, but the boy couldn't even withstand a single punch when he was just a little bit serious.

Fortunately, even though he couldn't take it, it wasn't a big deal.

"It hurts! But the effect is much better than before." Mu Cheng endured the pain and stood up.

He could clearly feel that the injuries on his body were recovering very quickly.

"Isn't this the perfect opportunity? Just hold on for a bit, maybe an hour at most! You'll probably be able to break through to the peak of the sixth rank." Peppa said decisively...

...leaving Mu Cheng's shoulder to sleep directly on the black rubble, even starting to snore.

"Come on, as a man, you have to be able to do it." General Wolf made a provocative gesture.

How could Mu Cheng endure this? He threw a punch as big as a sandbag, and the result was predictable.

Of course, he still couldn't look cool for more than three seconds, getting punched in the belly by General Wolf again. If the black rock hadn't been black gold iron stone...

...it would have been shattered by Mu Cheng's impact long ago.

"I must hold on." Mu Cheng stood up with great difficulty, took a brief rest to recover, and then charged at General Wolf recklessly again.

"Interesting, I've never heard of such Transcendent Martial Arts among the human race." General Wolf sent Mu Cheng flying once more.

Withstanding it once or twice could be luck, but after the third time... General Wolf naturally understood.

Mu Cheng was definitely using some kind of Transcendent Martial Arts, and his recovery ability was extremely strong...

This was similar to the way his Ghost Wolf Clan became stronger—they all grew through practical combat!

Only Mu Cheng was different; his recovery ability was much faster than that of the Ghost Wolf Clan soldiers, so he didn't need to retreat...

He could grow stronger just by being hit!

"Again! It doesn't matter if you hit harder." Mu Cheng could say such a thing because he clearly... felt himself becoming stronger.

It was an improvement in his physical body... not an increase in his bloodline level!

"Then I shall satisfy you." General Wolf was naturally very willing, also wanting to see...

...just what height Mu Cheng could reach.

Finally, Mu Cheng held on for a full half hour, going from being beaten at the start... to barely blocking attacks.

To now being evenly matched.

"I'm not fighting anymore! I have no obligation to help you get stronger!" General Wolf's head was also spinning.

He never expected... Mu Cheng's original physical strength was only three-fold Wanshi, but now it could match his own seven-fold Wanshi.

"Not fighting? Then I'll let you experience being beaten to the ground!" Mu Cheng recalled being beaten half-dead earlier.

Now you're telling me you're not fighting? Of course, coupled with his breakthrough to the peak of the sixth-rank bloodline, he was definitely going to teach General Wolf a lesson.

"Wait... you can't do this."

General Wolf was scared; under the rule that Bloodline Power could not be used, he had no choice but to back down.

"Don't worry, I'll be gentle!" Mu Cheng clenched his sandbag-sized fist and took a sprinting stance.

Distinct spatial cracks were left in his wake; though hitting General Wolf wouldn't kill him...

...it was clear he was heavily injured. He said with great effort, "You kid are something else, actually able to break the void with brute force."

"Is this difficult? Whatever... go back and recover well. We'll have another match if there's a chance." Mu Cheng didn't waste words and turned to leave.

General Wolf finally couldn't hold on any longer and slumped down next to a black rock, completely drained of strength.

Not to mention speaking...

"Little Piglet, aren't you going to explain?" Mu Cheng came over and questioned him.

And with a very serious gaze, he kept staring intently at Peppa.

Peppa: "Isn't it simple? Not all species are enemies of the human race."
