Volume 1, Chapter 53: You Enjoyed...

Chu Yun looked at his own body in disbelief. He was certain that he had never possessed such immense power. Just a few days prior, it had taken a coordinated team effort to slay a Tier 3 Modorian Giant Lizard, yet now, he had instantly killed a creature suspected to be a Tier 4 Twin-Headed Underworld Wolf.

That afternoon, all the members of the combat squad arrived at the venue for the drawing of lots. Sitting in the audience and looking at the lottery box placed right in the center of the stage, they engaged in a fierce debate over who should represent them to draw the lots.

Thinking up to this point, Chen Bo did not increase the intensity of his attack; instead, his consciousness split into two parts. One part closely monitored the Faceless Ghost in front of him, while the other stared fixedly at the corpse aura emanating from its body.

Those three short words encapsulated all of Arthas's emotions. Jaina looked at Arthas, utterly unable to accept his request.

"Sea of Blood!" Wang Jin unleashed this technique directly against the City of the Wronged. An overwhelming sea of blood appeared once again, surging toward the City of the Wronged like a torrential flood.

The body of Faluba visibly grew several times larger right before their eyes, though perhaps due to the thinness of the ambient energy, the fire giant looked somewhat like a phantom.

"Ooh... ooh, come watch big brother perform magic..." A few lively boys cheered as they ran toward the backyard.

"I certainly know that. Can you get to the point?" Seeing that this lightning-man appeared quite friendly, Chu Yun's guard lowered considerably.

Zamparini muttered curses incessantly, though it was unclear whom he was cursing—perhaps the Palermo players, or Sonetti. In any case, he was deeply dissatisfied with conceding that goal.

Inside the private parlor, Lin Yu had finally eaten and drunk his fill. Tang Yuan wore a somewhat nervous expression, while Old Zhao raised an eyebrow and looked at him with curiosity.

Clearly, he was unaware that he had now become the target of public criticism, still assuming that the incoming people were here to assist him, even though they were driving police cruisers.

It was precisely for this reason that, although Phil Jackson watched the immensely talented Kobe grow day by day, he always felt that the young player could never truly surpass Jordan.

The very second he charged forward, the blood on the floor coagulated into a huge bloody palm, slapping fiercely toward Su Cheng.

Inside the livestream room, everyone was discussing animatedly. Perhaps accustomed to it by now, they saw no issue with Zhong Li suddenly imparting martial arts, so the chat was primarily focused on the practical uses of this martial art.

"Provided you can return," Ferd added. But Drizzt ignored the troublemaker.

Even so... "Perhaps you should linger in Taryabad a bit longer," Jarlaxle said, "to keep an eye on this new enterprise from within the Crystal Tower." "I have no fear of Domas," Jarlaxle replied.

The personal sword of "Pan," the First Saint Emperor of antiquity, not only held immense symbolic significance, but its power was also capable of slaying powerhouses at the Thunder Tribulation realm.

Yet that rusted sword did not descend. The goblin stood motionless, locking gazes with Kethera Brill for what felt like an infinite amount of time, before the silence was finally broken by the sound of the rusted sword hitting the ground. A wheezing, leaking sound came from his chest, followed by a spurt of blood. The monster collapsed to the ground just like his rusted sword, dead.

Afterward, the two of them saw off the Imperial Physician Li, and Dean Song cordially invited Lin Yu into his estate. He mentioned that his elderly mother had constantly been talking about Lin Yu, especially after hearing that he had recovered and won the poetry championship at the Garden Poetry Appreciation Banquet, which had piqued her curiosity immensely.

Taking advantage of Wu Wei's attention being entirely focused inside the room, the guard turned and dashed toward the stairway. Suspicious of the guard from the start, Wu Wei had been closely monitoring his every move. Seeing him desperate to escape, Wu Wei raised his gun and squeezed the trigger, aiming squarely at the guard's back.

Could it be? A thought stirred in Yun Yang's mind. Upon closer inspection, he realized that the five colors of his Five-Colored True Flame were indeed white, cyan, black, scarlet, and yellow.

"What are you talking about? What news? What promotion? How come I know nothing about it!" Li Xiaomai asked as she set down the breakfast.

Liu Rumei only then recalled what she had accidentally overheard Bai Ziruo say earlier: what she needed to take were medicinal herbs, not these elixir pills.

Most importantly, the Five-Element Acupuncture Technique required no vital energy to drive it; the technique was profoundly skillful yet seemingly clumsy, making it both highly effective and energy-saving.

Space blades unleashed using a annihilation structure would undoubtedly double in power, while using such an immensely stable spatial structure for defense meant that defensive barriers and other spell formations would be far from easily broken. Yun Yang had essentially acquired two extremely practical structures, one for offense and one for defense.

He had no way of knowing that by the next day, the graying hair of this veteran soldier would turn completely white overnight.

At that moment, Li Xiaomai secretly congratulated herself on her chain of logical deductions, itching to share them with Li Monan immediately.

A man resembling a non-commissioned officer waved his hand, bringing several soldiers forward to surround them in a posture of impending arrest.

Lord Polong followed the crowd. Naturally aware that the Peach Wood Mountain and Sea Banner could not hold out much longer, he appeared exceptionally nervous.

The items available for exchange were categorized into several major classes: bloodlines, cultivation techniques, technology, energy, weapons, daily necessities, and elixirs.
