Chapter 1248 - 1323: Piao Chang's Resentment
"Big brother, avenge me!" Piao Chang voiced his hatred at this moment, as Lin Hai's actions earlier had been a great humiliation to him!If this revenge is not exacted, the shadow in Piao Chang's heart will never dissipate.
Piao Ba and Lin Hai locked eyes, as if fierce sparks were colliding in the air.
Their gazes changed; the former's with seriousness and anger, while Lin Hai showed a bit more seriousness in his.
"Since Young Master Lin wants to make a move, I would be honored to oblige, let's spar a bit."
Piao Ba ultimately spoke first and took a step forward.
Lin Hai also stepped forward, closing the distance between them.
"Mr. Lin, be careful!" The two Super Female Soldier Kings, Phoenix, immediately noticed Piao Ba's formidable presence, and even when combined, they considered themselves only equal to Piao Ba, marking him as a formidable opponent.
"Don't worry, Mr. Piao Ba and I are just sparring." Lin Hai waved his hand.
Piao Ba nodded as well: "Since it's sparring, we don't need to use techniques; fighting in broad daylight on the street isn't a good idea. How about we try something else?"
"Oh? What do you suggest?" Lin Hai asked with interest.
"How about a Gang Qi contest?" Piao Ba suggested.
"Alright." Lin Hai nodded.
Their palms extended out, gripping each other tightly.
To bystanders, it looked like two long-lost friends warmly shaking hands.
However, only the true experts knew that a Gang Qi contest was far more dangerous and challenging than a sparring match. If one side suppressed the other's Gang Qi or couldn't control the incoming Gang Qi, at best they would suffer internal injuries, and at worst, their abilities would be ruined.
That's why few experts are willing to engage in a Gang Qi contest; they'd rather fight a life-and-death battle.
"Humph, competing in Gang Qi with my big brother, how amusing." Piao Chang's eyes flashed with insidiousness and delight.
Piao Ba also sneered internally, thinking he had overestimated Lin Hai, who had the title of Super Young Master but lacked any worldly society experience.
After all, he was a Supreme strong figure under the Yanhuang Soul in Tianlong; even in the international arena, few dared to provoke him.
Piao Ba contemplated quietly, deciding that crippling Lin Hai's arm meridians would suffice, as some face needs to be saved for the Lin Family's Young Master, and happily made up his mind.
The Wu family's two brothers also revealed joyous expressions, as they knew Piao Ba was extremely powerful, and at least seventy percent of the Piao family's rise to a super family status could be attributed to him.
The Gang Qi began to secretly contend at this moment.
Invisible battles are often the most terrifying, whether in a game of power or a game of life and death.
Ouyang Xiaoya and the other women suddenly felt a sense of unease; although they didn't understand the dangers of this contest, a woman's sixth sense is always so keen.
Lin Hai felt Piao Ba's Gang Qi to be extraordinarily fierce and nearly rushed into his arm.
"Truly impressive," Lin Hai chuckled.
"You're not bad either!" Piao Ba was slightly surprised, not expecting his full power to be repelled by Lin Hai's Gang Qi.
His Gang Qi was unique and highly regarded within the Yanhuang Soul, mainly because his Innate Gang Qi was twice that of others, and his meridians were twice as wide as a normal person's.
Whoosh—
Their Gang Qi formally began to contend, and their clothes rustled in the windless air, Lin Hai's hair getting blown around.
Piao Ba's entire attire made a swishing sound, his arm veins constantly bulging, while veins on his forehead began to appear prominently.
"The opponent's Gang Qi has increased again, truly remarkable!"
Lin Hai put away all thoughts of underestimation, now treating it with full seriousness.
Having now reached the Legendary level, with the dual enhancements of Holy Blood and the Human King Tribulation Body, his meridians were more than three times wider than others, and his Gang Qi was over five times that of the average person.
Furthermore, the Legendary level's Gang Qi was thicker than a Supreme Strong's; with the same output, the Supreme would need to exert another fifty percent effort to contend.
Time continued to slide by.
Minutes and seconds passed quickly.
Once more, Lin Hai's eyes flickered with surprise, not expecting that after using sixty percent of his Gang Qi, Piao Ba could still hold on.
Despite the sweat rolling off his opponent's forehead and his heavy breathing showing his extreme exhaustion, it was noteworthy that Lin Hai had already reached the Legendary level.
Suddenly, a flash of insight crossed Lin Hai's mind, and a mischievous smile played at the corners of his mouth.
He then altered the frequency of his Gang Qi.
Bang—
After ten minutes, the two released each other's hands.
Thud, thud, thud, thud—
Piao Ba retreated swiftly four steps back, one foot fiercely stomping the ground to barely manage to stabilize himself.
Lin Hai also took four steps back in a similar fashion but stopped with a composed grace.
"The Lin Family's Young Master truly lives up to his name!" Piao Ba took several deep breaths before regaining his composure to speak, now casting aside the contempt from earlier and sincerely regarding Lin Hai seriously.
Lin Hai smiled as well: "You lost, didn't you?"
"Humph, once Gang Qi reaches a certain level, it naturally separates; it's a draw at most." Someone as competitive as Piao Ba wouldn't admit defeat easily.
"Oh? Seems like you won't cry till you see the coffin." Lin Hai chuckled, pleased that the flash of insight earlier wasn't in vain, knowing someone like this required a backup plan.
Piao Ba went on to counter: "Lin Hai, a Gang Qi contest ended in a tie; let's compare techniques next, shall we?"
"Just so you know, fists and feet have no eyes; if you die, don't blame me."
Lin Hai's face turned stern: "You ungrateful fool, won't admit your loss?"
"Humph, the Gang Qi contest was even!"
"Oh? Was it really a tie?" Lin Hai blinked.
"Haha, Young Master Lin, I admit your Gang Qi seems special, but if you want to defeat me, you're still too naive. Come, let's compete in techniques!"
With that, Piao Ba clenched his fist and took a stance.
Lin Hai looked at him with a look of mockery.
Just as Piao Ba was making his attack stance, his entire attire began making a tearing sound, and soon, his clothes entirely exploded.
Crack, crack, crack, crack—
The crisp sound echoed as his clothing shredded from the sleeve position on his arm, disintegrating into powder, and rapidly spreading across his body.
"What's going on?"
Piao Ba was baffled by the unexpected situation.
Three seconds passed swiftly.
Piao Ba's entire attire shattered completely, leaving him exposed.
"What?"
Piao Chang was dumbfounded.
How did his big brother... suddenly end up completely unclothed?
Piao Ba was equally stunned and silently grateful: "Thankfully, my last piece of inner clothing didn't break."
Just as this thought arose, disaster struck.
Piao Ba's ** waistband made a weak snapping sound and broke.
Plop—
The last piece of cloth fell to the ground as well.
"Holy crap!"
Piao Ba hurriedly covered his lower body in a panic, entirely stupefied.
"Since it's a Gang Qi contest, besides brute force, it naturally requires the delicate control of Gang Qi and strength; I silently shattered all your clothing. Had I used Gang Qi to shatter all your skin and capillaries, you would have died by my hand long ago. Now who do you think won?"
Lin Hai leisurely lit a Hongmei cigarette, smiling as he explained.
"What! How could you control Gang Qi with such precision!" Piao Ba was incredulous.
"Heh, just because you can't doesn't mean others can't. Publicly losing your pants serves as your lesson," Lin Hai added.
Just as Piao Ba was about to speak, a sudden flash went off and a camera shutter sound was heard, catching him off guard. Lin Hai had clearly taken a picture of him.
"Ah!"
Instantly, the humiliation nearly drove Piao Ba to madness.
