Chapter 156 – Ye Sheng, what are you going to do?

Although Xu Xingchen was a High-Tier Super-Limit, only a step away from the 4th Revolution Giant Tier.

Yet this single step was like an insurmountable chasm, creating an unimaginable gap in Combat Power between him and a 4th Revolution Giant Tier.

A 4th Revolution Giant Tier, even if only a ‘Beginner-Tier Giant,’ could easily suppress dozens of High-Tier Super-Limits.

…

In the night sky, a burly figure hovered mid-air, his face filled with fury. His Breathing Technique rumbled like muffled thunder, and turbulent, pale golden Aura Radiance spilled from his body, strikingly conspicuous against the night.

Simultaneously, a layer of white light enveloped his form, indicating his identity as a ‘Hunted.’

Moments ago, while resting inside a building, a fire-red arrow had pierced straight through, cleaving the entire structure in half and nearly melting him.

If not for his lightning-fast reflexes, he would have perished.

“Who is it?!”

The burly figure was enraged. He, too, was a 4th Revolution Giant Tier, yet someone dared to treat him as prey to be hunted—this was utterly humiliating.

“Show yourself!!”

The burly figure roared, glaring into the distant night sky.

The far-off night was illuminated by golden radiance, clearly indicating the presence of another 4th Revolution Giant Tier there.

Soon, a golden sun approached from the distant sky. It was a young woman, holding a Fire-Red Longbow, her body shimmering with a bloody glow—a Hunter.

Her expression was indifferent. Despite being a woman, she dared to target a 4th Revolution Giant Tier as her prey for the night.

“You have some nerve!” The burly figure stared at the woman, his expression darkening.

Even when these 4th Revolution Giant Tiers fought among themselves, it typically only began during the second round of chaos. No one would engage a peer Expert in the first round.

Doing so would deplete one’s strength too early, greatly disadvantaging them for the subsequent situation! If someone else then reaped the benefits, the loss would be even more unbearable.

In the burly figure’s view, this Fire-Red Longbow woman before him was a reckless lunatic.

…

Many Cultivators were hidden in the nearby streets. Now, with two 4th Revolution Giant Tiers confronting each other, they were forced to flee in disarray, fearing the collateral damage from the clash.

Below, as the building collapsed, the entire area was shrouded in dust and debris. Ghost Spirits on the streets and roads were thrown into chaos. Though not living beings, they were still disturbed by this sudden upheaval.

Shortly after, piercing police sirens blared. Countless police cars, flashing their lights, sped over and surrounded the area, issuing warnings through loudspeakers.

Yet the scene appeared somewhat bizarre: a group of low-tier Ghost Spirits encircling two golden suns—clearly not a match in weight class.

“Madness! Two 4th Revolution Giant Tiers are already fighting in the first round?!” Xu Xingchen gazed into the distant sky, sucking on his ice pop even faster as he spoke.

Beside him, Ye Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly, scrutinizing the two figures, his expression tinged with gravity.

Both figures emanated pale golden Aura Radiance—they were ‘Beginner-Tier Giants,’ just like him.

Beginner-Tier Giants!

Those who reached this realm were no ordinary individuals. Ye Sheng had personally experienced how difficult it was to touch that ‘critical threshold.’

Those who could touch it and take that step across were among the elite, not much inferior to himself.

This, however, was Ye Sheng underestimating his own capabilities.

With skills at the 3rd Revolution Ghost General Realm level, he had already become a ‘Beginner-Tier Giant of the 4th Revolution’. Once he raised his skill level to LV4 of the 4th Revolution Ghost Sect Realm, becoming a ‘High-Tier Giant’ would be effortless!

How could ordinary people compare?

Nor could these ‘Beginner-Tier Giants’ compare.

All Ye Sheng lacked now was time.

…

The commotion here alarmed many nearby areas.

From a distant building, over ten figures shot out, swiftly ascending to the rooftop, then gazing with shock and uncertainty toward the distant night sky.

These ten-plus individuals were precisely Shangguan Ying and the others who had been hiding in the basement. Startled by the sudden violent earthquake, they had come out to investigate what had happened.

“It’s Giants fighting!”

Someone, upon clearly seeing two exceptionally dazzling golden suns in the distant night sky, couldn’t help but cover their mouth and exclaim in a hushed voice, filled with disbelief!

“How can this be? This is only the first round—how can there already be 4th Revolution Giant Tier combat?!” another young man also found it hard to believe.

4th Revolution Giant Tier cultivators usually only make their move during the second round of free-for-all battles, leading tens of thousands of examinees from their own city to clash with other cities.

They are the ones who hold the fort; it’s rare for them to act in the first round! This goes against their own interests!

Shangguan Ying stood tall, her figure graceful, with a head of jet-black hair. Frowning, she gazed at the two golden suns in the distant night sky.

She was a Beginner-Tier Super-Limit cultivator and knew full well how powerful 4th Revolution Giant Tier strength was—far beyond what ordinary Cultivators could imagine.

If a battle broke out, the area of effect would be vast!

“Look! They’re fighting!”

Suddenly, someone pointed toward the distant night sky.

Sure enough, after a brief standoff, the two golden suns in the far sky abruptly took action.

A fiery-red arrow shot out first, instantly cutting a skyscraper in half!

The other golden sun was not to be outdone, slashing out a golden blade light that streaked like a bolt of silk, fiercely attacking its opponent with equal ferocity.

In an instant, that distant part of the city fell into catastrophe.

…

Far in the sky.

The burly figure roared, slashing out one golden blade light after another as he battled the woman with the fiery-red longbow, who was also a Beginner-Tier Giant.

His Breathing Technique rumbled like thunder, making the golden radiance around him shine even more brilliantly.

This Breathing Technique allowed energy to flow more smoothly; maintaining it during combat could greatly increase Combat Power.

When fighting within the same realm, even the slightest gap could mean life or death, determining victory or defeat.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The woman with the fiery-red longbow wore an indifferent expression, her body enveloped in brilliant golden radiance. From her fiery-red longbow, she shot one fiery-red arrow after another.

She was like a killing machine, each arrow incredibly precise.

While shattering the incoming golden blade lights, she also launched fierce attacks against the burly figure, aiming to make a 4th Revolution Beginner-Tier Giant fall in the very first round!

Though a woman, her killing intent was heavier than any man’s!

Two Giants clashed.

On the rooftop of a building, Xu Xingchen and Ye Sheng stood, both gazing at the battle in the night sky.

After watching for a while, Xu Xingchen suddenly said dejectedly, “The gap between me and them is huge!”

He hadn’t believed before that the gap between himself and the Giant Tier could be so vast as to be irreparable, but witnessing the two fighting in the distant sky now made him deeply aware of how far he still had to go.

Even compared to Beginner-Tier Giants, there was a massive chasm in Combat Power.

Beside him, Ye Sheng remained silent, but his eyes shone with a brilliant light.

Then, he took a step forward and actually performed Aerial Flight, heading straight toward the area where the two golden suns were battling.

“Ye Sheng, what are you doing?” Xu Xingchen was bewildered by Ye Sheng’s sudden move. Seeing him fly directly toward the battlefield, he couldn’t help but exclaim, “Don’t go! You’ll be killed by the shockwaves from the clash between the two giants!”
