Chapter 222: Kong Dao the Lone Wolf

Chapter 222: Kong Dao the Lone Wolf Translator:Atlas StudiosEditor:Atlas Studios

Kong Dao was born in the Sea of Beasts. Being able to grow up in an environment where dangers were unpredictable and where there weren't many people around meant that he had unique talents allowing him to survive. If not, he would never have been taken in as Duan Muque's disciple.

Needless to say, his experience living alone on Mars also showed how extraordinary he was.

Even though the Federation seedlings had spent several days together, his sense of belonging towards them wasn't strong. Furthermore, on the first and second day in the fight for the Body Strengthening Freedom Pill, he was defeated due to Wang Baole's Numinous Treasures. However, he had chosen to give up the fight then due to the regulations and certain inhibitions. If he were really to battle Wang Baole head-on, he was confident that he would win.

As he charged forward, he showcased his astonishing force. All the pent up unhappiness instantly evaporated, as if an attractive bright sun has risen in the enclosed army camp!

As he growled with a low voice that spread like thunder in all directions, his speed was boosted to the maximum, exceeding that of his counterparts. It appeared as if he had been transformed into a flash of lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived before Wang Baole!

His right fist was clenched, and he punched straight ahead!

The moment the punch was executed, his body contorted into the shape of a bow, with his fist acting as the outlet for all the accumulated force that was emerging from all over his body. A hurricane-like vortex was immediately produced, and with the power that was capable of forcefully tearing apart everything in its path, it charged towards Wang Baole.

Wang Baole turned his head suddenly, his eyes revealing a flash. Kong Dao's move and sudden attack didn't make him retreat, but instead aroused his interest, which was apparent in his eyes

"Interesting!" Wang Baole laughed without trying to avoid the impact. He then kicked forward.

A loud boom was produced, reverberating as the duo collided with each other, hand to foot.

The ground shook, and cracks appeared. As the sound of impact reverberated, Kong Dao sneered as he retreated. Wang Baole also turned his body but didn't step back. There were more cracks under his feet, but he didn't stop. When his right foot landed, he rode on the momentum and stepped forcefully, causing the ground beneath his feet to crack open. Wang Baole then rose into the air, attacking first and charging towards Kong Dao!

Immediately, the duo made contact, exchanging punches and kicks. An impressive battle depending purely on physical strength was playing out in the army camp's Public Square, and loud bangs sounded out continuously.

The scene of battle, coupled with the sounds of impact ringing by their ears, shocked every onlooker!

"The two of them... They're freaks!"

"They have such a high level of physical strength... They can very well go head-on against a ferocious beast!"

"I finally understand why only the both of them were automatically selected..."

The surrounding crowd was filled with surprise. There were some amongst them who had either not attacked, or had attacked but were clearly not as skilled in physical abilities. There were also some who specialized in the use of spells. They were shocked, but even more amazed at what they were watching.

With the crowd looking on, the battle between Wang Baole and Kong Dao continued. Kong Dao's eyes revealed a look of viciousness, and as he attacked, a desire for blood could be sensed from his body. He seemed to have been transformed into a wild beast, disregarding his injuries as he roared with a deep voice. Even after being punched forcefully in the stomach by Wang Baole, he still raised his head immediately, kicking Wang Baole in return.

Such a battle tactic where one disregards their own survival initially felt foreign to Wang Baole. However, he was someone with a temper, and seeing that Kong Dao was acting like a lunatic, he stared with his eyes wide.

"You're trying to battle me till death?" As Wang Baole spoke, he stepped forward, and the force from his physical body completely erupted at that moment. A strong force emerged from his body, and his right hand grabbed Kong Dao's right hand with the speed of lightning as he activated his gripping skill and twisted Kong Dao's fingers.

If it were someone else, they would definitely lose their voices from screaming in pain if the joints of their fingers were twisted in that manner. However, Kong Dao looked completely unaffected, twisting his hand in another direction and breaking his wrist off with a crack. He approached Wang Baole and punched him again!

A loud boom was produced, and Wang Baole narrowed his eyes. He clenched his left fist with the speed of light and punched forward, causing a Supernova to be produced, one that surged right towards the fast-approaching Kong Dao!

It was unbelievably loud, and as the Supernova was produced, Kong Dao's body was contorted into an astonishing angle as he twisted forcefully, his left hand flailing as the nails on his hand began to grow into scary blade-like structures that slashed Wang Baole!

All of that bewildered everyone. From the moment the attacks were first exchanged till then, the duo had been moving extremely quickly. As a loud sound of impact emerged, fresh blood spewed from Kong Dao mouth as he immediately retreated hundreds of feet away. He was unable to withstand the impact and landed on the ground with a half squat, supporting his body with one of his hands. He raised his head, fresh blood flowing from the corner of his mouth while his hair covered his eyes. Even so, the viciousness in his eyes was still obvious.

Wang Baole had grown furious from the attacks. When Kong Dao tried to grab hold of him previously, he was surprised but had managed to avoid it. However, at that moment, his chest had been slashed by Kong Dao, and his clothes were torn, revealing five scratches teeming with blood.

It slightly diminished Wang Baole's arrogance, which had previously resulted from the physical transformation and strength boost that he had received. It was obvious to him that even though Kong Dao was not as physically strong as him, he was almost as powerful!

That was especially so as Kong Dao's personality was one so vicious that he wouldn't think twice about self-destruction. That allowed his combat capabilities to increase significantly. However, even so, Wang Baole was still confident that if they were ever engaged in a battle of life-and-death, he would still be able to kill him!

It would just come at a price.

The onlookers of the battle were gripped with shock. They were taken aback looking at both Wang Baole and Kong Dao's attacks.

Kong Dao, who previously seemed to be a quiet existence, was actually someone who was extremely formidable in terms of combat. On the other hand, even though Wang Baole was shameless and his Numinous Treasures were perverted, his physical strength was astonishing.

All of that made the Federation seedlings, who were also extremely proud of their own capabilities, fall silent.

As Kong Dao lowered his head slightly, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, indicating his desire to continue the battle. Wang Baole also narrowed his eyes, making preparations to attack. However, just at that instant...

"Enough!" A look of approval was obvious from the elderly instructor's eyes as he concluded the match. He raised his right hand and revealed two beast eggs.

"These two beast eggs are from the same nest. Each of you can have one!" As he spoke, the elder tossed one beast egg to Wang Baole and one to Kong Dao.

Wang Baole grabbed hold of the egg and lowered his head to take a closer look. The egg was the size of a clenched fist, and he could feel a sign of life within it just by holding it in his hands.

Kong Dao grabbed hold of his egg too. However, he did not spend much time examining it. Instead, he looked deeply into Wang Baole's eyes with a look of provocation and viciousness.

This gaze... He wants to be punched?Wang Baole looked askance at him and sneered. He didn't bother with Kong Dao after deciding that the elderly instructor would definitely try to prevent further fighting between them.

The elder saw what was happening and smiled slightly. As he turned to leave, he murmured with a voice that others could not hear.

"Are both of them at the Physical Foundation Establishment stage? Interesting!"

The Federation seedlings standing around had no objections to the elder's way of handling the matter. After all, the battle between Wang Baole and Kong Dao was proof of their physical capabilities, showing that both of them were so strong that they had far exceeded their limits.

There were less than two days left of the seven-day-long training, which quickly passed amidst the silence of the crowd as they basked in their complex emotions. As the seventh day ended, the assessment began.

The location of the assessment was set to be in the army camp. All the Federation seedlings, including Wang Baole, had managed to attain the mystic technique of the Supernova. Duan Muque arrived in person, and numerous officials from the Federation also showed up. With words of encouragement and praise from them, each individual stepped up to the large green boulder that was to be used as a test of their strength. They adjusted their force and activated the Supernova!

As the loud noise reverberated and every Federation seedling showcased their powers, all the onlookers let out praise and admiration. Duan Muque smiled as he exchanged some words with the people around him.

"Yameng is not bad!"

"This chap is quite impressive as well."

Their laughter and judgment became the source of motivation and excitement for the Federation seedlings. As they tested their strength, one after another, cracks of varying degrees appeared after every Supernova. As the cracks healed quickly, the next person attacked.

When it was Kong Dao's turn, he punched hard, and the green boulder vibrated. So many cracks appeared on it that it far exceeded that of those before him. After that, he first bowed towards Duan Muque and company, before turning and looking at Wang Baole provocatively.

Duan Muque smiled slightly but didn't speak. The people beside him were significantly more amazed than before.

Soon, it was Wang Baole's turn.

Wang Baole rolled his eyes at Kong Dao's provocation. He acknowledged his strength but was more confident in his own efforts. After all, in order to reach where he was, he had put in a lot of hard work and experienced trials that were more than what others could imagine.

With that thought, a flash appeared in Wang Baole's eyes as he leaped and arrived before the green boulder. He took a deep breath, and punched!

A deafening roar erupted, traveling in all directions. The green boulder vibrated like never before, with visible cracks spreading quickly across it, covering the entire boulder. Finally, it exploded apart with a loud bang!
