Chapter 273: Breaking Records! Defeating the Stone Clan's Stronghold, the Double Pupil's Challenge! (Part 2)
"
"Now I understand why you call him a bear child. He's truly a bear, surpassing the realm of innocent childhood words."
"..."
...
"Since that's the case, we'll take our leave."
The members of Heaven Mending Pavilion didn't stay for long.
They did want to take Shi Hao in, and by offering him a position, they had already given him face. Naturally, they wouldn't continue to lower themselves and beg him to join Heaven Mending Pavilion.
Many onlookers were shocked beyond belief.
The bear child is too much!
The most critical part was that he flirted with the Holy Maiden of Heaven Mending Pavilion and still came out unscathed. This was simply a miracle. Before this, they wouldn't even dare to dream of such a thing!
...
The Stone Clan.
Shi Qi emerged from his secluded cultivation.
He soon learned of the events that had transpired in the Ethereal Realm and couldn't help but chuckle lightly.
"Hehe."
"For a mischievous kid to break my record from years ago and dare to claim victory over me?"
He scoffed.
Double Pupil represented invincibility! Moreover, he also possessed a Supreme Bone.
With these two combined, his invincibility among his peers was already predetermined. Who could possibly rival him?
"Fine, I'll go and meet this person."
"How dare someone trample on the might of a Double Pupil like me?"
He took out the token and entered the Ethereal Realm!
······
"Keke, that annoying fairy has finally left."
Not long after the Heaven Mending Pavilion members departed, a 'little fairy' appeared.
She was as beautiful as a flower, with a heavenly fragrance, and exuded a unique allure.
Most astonishingly, she had eight fluffy tails, giving her a distinct 'charm'.
"Who are you?"
Shi Hao curiously sized her up.
She showed no fear and instead moved closer, eventually leaning against Shi Hao, her chin resting on his shoulder, as she giggled and said, "I want to invite you to come with me."
"You..."
"You do look well-built, but what's the deal with your tail?" Shi Hao was curious and grabbed one of her tails, "Are you human or demon?"
"If we have a child together, won't it also have a tail?"
This 'demoness' instantly stiffened all over.
Her entire body went numb!
Although her tail wasn't weak, it was an extremely sensitive spot, so she never let anyone touch it.
Today, she naturally wasn't planning to let Shi Hao touch it either.
The reason she got so close was just her usual teasing.
When Shi Hao tried to grab her tail, she appeared to have no reaction, but in reality, she was controlling her tail to dodge.
She was indeed doing that.
But she never expected that she wouldn't be able to escape this mischievous kid's 'claws' and would have her tail grabbed, and even stroked a few times.
This made her entire body instantly covered in goosebumps, and she was extremely shocked.
"This kid..."
"Such incredible speed!"
She was most aware of her own strength.
Even if she was suppressed to the First Stage, she would still be absolutely formidable.
But under this seemingly invisible confrontation, she had completely lost? Even if she hadn't used her full strength and was caught off guard, it still demonstrated the formidable power of this kid!
She silently broke free from the restraint and created some distance from Shi Hao, then she smiled and said, "This is my advantage and charm, many people like it."
At this moment.
Finally, someone recognized her.
"The last descendant of the Eight-Tailed Fox in the Immortal Martial Continent, the Heaven Splitting Sect's Holy Maiden!!!"
"Is it her?"
"Hiss!"
"Don't stare too much, be careful of the consequences later."
Many people were startled and quickly averted their gazes.
But Shi Hao showed no fear and said, "You sound quite impressive."
"It's not bad, but how about joining our Heaven Splitting Sect?"
"Not only can you become my sect's Holy Son, but I will also tilt all the resources of my sect towards you!"
Boom!!!
Holy shit!
Although the people around didn't dare to look, their ears were always perked up, eavesdropping.
At this moment, their hearts were trembling, not knowing how many times the word 'holy shit' reverberated in their minds.
The Heaven Splitting Sect!
That was the Heaven Splitting Sect!
The Heaven Splitting Sect, one of the renowned holy lands in Central State, was actually inviting this mischievous kid to be their Holy Son?!?!?!
This, this, this!!!
"I'm not interested."
But Shi Hao expressed complete disinterest and shook his head, "Is that all?"
"Then please step aside, I still need to break the record."
"I heard that the Double Pupil holder is very impressive, I want to see how remarkable his record is."
"You?"
The demoness was speechless for a moment, almost laughing out of anger.
"Fine, fine, you mischievous kid, you indeed have the guts."
"Alright then."
"But the doors of the Heaven Splitting Sect will always be open for you. If you change your mind, you can come to our Heaven Splitting Sect as the Holy Son anytime. I believe in you."
"Go!"
The demoness waved her small fist, filled with Essence Energy.
In Lin Fan's eyes, even if she suddenly called him 'daddy', he wouldn't be surprised.
Unfortunately, she didn't do that.
But Shi Hao's reaction made everyone's scalp go numb again, and they exclaimed, "Holy shit!"
"This, this mischievous kid..."
"Unbelievable!"
"Does he know what he's doing?"
"That's the Holy Son of the Heaven Splitting Sect! He, he, he, he actually rejected them?!"
"How can he not know that by becoming the Holy Son of the Heaven Splitting Sect, the opportunities and resources he'll obtain will be even more astonishing and abundant than the Double Pupil holder!"
"Holy shit, why isn't it me?"
"Ah, my heart..."
"..."
They were all stimulated and turned into 'rabbits', their eyes getting redder by the second.
But there were also calm individuals who analyzed, "With the strength he has displayed, becoming an immortal is not difficult at all. As long as he doesn't meet an untimely end, he will surely become an immortal in the future!"
"Therefore, his pursuit is definitely different from ours."
"Then what is his pursuit?"
"..., you're asking me, who should I ask?"
"If I knew, would I still be here?"
"What virtue or ability do I have that makes you think I can know these things?"
Everyone: "..."
"Then why are you analyzing, join us in our holy shit."
"Hmm."
"..."
······
"Who knows what other records the Double Pupil holder has broken?"
Shi Hao shouted, show me the way!
Boom!
The crowd gathered again.
There's still more to watch?
Enough!
At this time, a group of extraordinary individuals stepped forward, each with a cold expression. An elder among them spoke, "Young friend, as the saying goes, leave a line for future encounters."
"You have no grudges with my clan, why target our clan's young Supreme?"
Action: "That's enough, let's go."
"Why are you so fixated on breaking the records of the Stone Clan's young Supreme? The Ethereal Realm has countless records, so why focus on this?"
"They're from the Stone Clan!" The onlookers were well-informed, and their curiosity was piqued.
They quickly recognized some of the Stone Clan's upper echelon and were secretly startled.
"They're afraid!"
"They're scared that this unruly child will keep breaking records, which indirectly affects the prestige of the Double Pupil."
"I heard the Stone Clan has grand ambitions. They want to rise during this Golden Age, and the Double Pupil is crucial to their plan. They aim to use the Double Pupil's rise to propel the Stone Clan to the Holy Land's throne!"
"Hiss!"
"..."
With these words, the crowd suddenly understood why the Stone Clan was acting this way.
Such behavior was shameless! If word got out, it would be laughable.
After all, if someone has the ability to break records, threatening and preventing them from doing so is a sign of fear.
Leaving records and rankings is meaningless if they're not genuine.
However, compared to this, maintaining a good reputation is also important. Sometimes, one has to put aside their pride, and the benefits outweigh the drawbacks.
"Master."
YaYa's brows furrowed slightly. Knowing the hardships Shi Hao had endured and the challenges he would face, she was somewhat dissatisfied. "These old folks are bullying him."
"Let me go and support my little junior brother."
Wang Teng had already rolled up his sleeves.
Xiao Ling'er's face turned cold.
"No need to rush, let's wait and see."
Lin Fan waved his hand lightly, "Believe in your little junior brother."
The crowd calmed down.
YaYa's thoughts wandered.
"Who are you?"
Shi Hao showed no fear, "My records are my business, what does it have to do with you?"
"Moreover, records are meant to be broken."
"If you don't let me break it today, and you don't let him break it tomorrow, won't it become a joke?"
"You don't let people break records? Does the White-Black Academy know about this? Do they agree with it?"
Shi Hao, already aware of the truth from the past, had no fondness for the Stone Clan and naturally wouldn't give them any face. His rebuke made them furious.
"How dare you!"
"Young man, don't you understand the concept of respecting elders and loving the young?"
They were furious, but deep down, they were delighted.
This was exactly what they wanted!
They wanted a conflict!
Without a conflict, how could they justify their actions? After all, it was bullying the weak. But if they didn't act, and Shi Hao continued to break records, successfully doing so, how would the Stone Clan handle it?
How would the Double Pupil handle it?
Would the Invincible Double Pupil become his stepping stone?
This must not happen!
"Respecting elders and loving the young?"
"Pfft."
Shi Hao laughed out loud, "My master taught me that one should not be foolishly filial. Respecting elders and loving the young is natural, but I don't respect the immoral elders or love the uneducated young."
"Who can respect those without virtue?"
Master?
Hearing Shi Hao mention his master, the crowd was surprised and curious about who could teach such a prodigy.
The Stone Clan members were extremely concerned.
They wanted to uncover Shi Hao's true identity, and in reality...
"Who is your master?"
"Tell us!"
"Perhaps, I know him."
"I can also discipline you on his behalf."
"Do you even know my master?" Shi Hao, being a clever one, naturally responded, "Discipline me on his behalf?"
"Who do you think you are?"
"Arrogant!"
The elder was furious and immediately took action, intending to suppress Shi Hao.
"Hmph!"
Shi Hao grunted and instead of retreating, he advanced, ready to engage!
If this were the outside world, encountering these old men would mean running as fast and as far as possible.
But in the Ethereal Realm, in the Starting Ground, Shi Hao showed no fear!
Everyone else is suppressed to the First Stage, why should I fear you?
"Scram!"
Shi Hao roared, his body like a young dragon, charging forward with a powerful punch.
Boom!
The two clashed.
It was just a collision, a single boom.
"Ah!"
The Stone Clan elder cried out, instantly flying backward.
His right arm exploded!
After exchanging punches with Shi Hao, he was completely overwhelmed, unable to withstand a single punch. His entire right arm exploded, turning into a bloody mist, and even his right chest was affected, becoming a bloody mess.
He roared, almost killed by a single strike.
This scene shocked everyone.
"Oh my!"
"What, this result?!"
"I know that old man, he's one of the Stone Clan elders, a Ninth Stage existence in the real world, a true big shot, but..."
"What? He's a Ninth Stage expert?!"
The onlookers were stunned, almost scared speechless.
"No way!"
They initially thought this old man was just a stronger member of the Stone Clan, but to be knocked out by Shi Hao's punch was shocking enough. Now, they were told he was a Stone Clan elder, a Ninth Stage expert?!
"Impossible!"
"How can a Ninth Stage expert be so weak, unable to withstand a single punch from a young kid?"
But as soon as these words were spoken, they were quickly refuted, "Perhaps this elder thought the same, believing he could easily defeat or even kill the young troublemaker, but..."
"Hmph, this is indeed absurd, but don't forget, this is the Starting Ground, where everyone's cultivation is suppressed to the First Stage!"
"This young troublemaker can consecutively break the records of the Double Pupil, which means his strength is at least comparable to the Double Pupil's First Stage!"
"Although the Ninth Stage is powerful, throughout the Immortal Martial Continent, the Double Pupil is a rare existence. A regular Ninth Stage expert, suppressed to the First Stage, what can they do against him?!"
"That's right!"
"It makes sense. The Ninth Stage is strong, but that doesn't mean the First Stage is equally strong. Moreover, their cultivation techniques and secret arts are useless here. The First Stage is too weak, lacking even Essence Energy, relying solely on physical strength.
(Chapter End)
"This young one's physical body is already stronger than that of a beast of the same size, right?"
"Same size? I think he can even rival the physical bodies of the Ancient Ten Beasts' cubs!"
"..."
...
The crowd discussed heatedly.
Shi Hao's expression gradually turned cold. "Disrespectful and bullying the weak, but unfortunately, you are too weak."
"You're asking for death!"
"This child shows no respect to his elders and dares to lay hands on someone from the Stone Clan. Kill him!"
A middle-aged man from the Stone Clan roared.
The more than ten Stone Clan members present could no longer care about saving face. They immediately joined forces and surrounded Shi Hao, attacking him together.
They were too shocked.
They had considered various possibilities and were prepared to lose face and kill Shi Hao, but they never expected that they would indeed lose face, and Shi Hao would survive unscathed.
On the contrary, their own Ninth Stage Elder nearly got blasted by a single punch!
This was too outrageous.
It caused them to react half a beat slower, and at this moment, they could no longer care about saving face.
Even if they all attacked together, they had to kill Shi Hao!
Otherwise, they would truly lose all face and become a complete laughingstock.
...
"Truly shameless."
The onlookers twitched their mouths.
"The Stone Clan, a grand Immortal Ancient Clan, has lost all face."
"There's no other way. They have high expectations, and they didn't anticipate this young one to be so powerful. Now, they're in a difficult situation, and they have no choice but to continue."
"Even if they win, it won't be glorious!"
"Alas, it's a pity. Today, there probably won't be any follow-up."
The onlookers felt helpless as they spoke.
No matter how strong the First Stage was, it was still just the First Stage. They could only use physical strength, and physical strength couldn't be too abnormal, as there was an 'upper limit'.
In a one-on-one fight, they might be able to easily defeat their opponent, but what about a one-against-ten battle? It's unbearable!
Moreover, these Stone Clan members were not weak or mediocre either.
"Well met!"
Shi Hao showed no fear at all. He laughed loudly and even proactively walked into the encirclement, "Are you here to die?"
"What an arrogant young one!"
The Stone Clan members' faces turned ashen, and they coldly hummed. Everyone attacked Shi Hao together.
Shi Hao didn't retreat, he grabbed one person and blasted him with two punches and a kick.
Boom! Boom! Boom! With just two punches and a kick, the opponent instantly exploded and was defeated in an instant! The rest of the Stone Clan members simultaneously attacked Shi Hao.
Shi Hao didn't dodge or evade, directly enduring the attacks with his physical body.
He didn't seem to suffer much damage, and under the gaze of the crowd, he grabbed the second person and delivered two punches, killing him instantly!
"Him?!"
"What?!"
"How is this possible?!"
Everyone was shocked.
Whether it was the Stone Clan or the onlookers, they were all startled by the scene before them.
No one expected that this young one could withstand the onslaught of everyone without suffering severe injuries, and those he caught couldn't escape at all.
Moreover, Shi Hao didn't care who his opponents were or what they looked like.
He grabbed and struck, pressed and pounded! The attacks of others were like tickles to him.
Each of his punches and kicks was a critical hit, a devastating blow.
"This?!"
The severely injured Stone Clan Elder was stunned.
He never expected the situation to turn out like this.
In just a dozen breaths, the more than ten clan members he brought with him were all defeated, and they couldn't enter the Ethereal Realm for at least three days.
Of course, this was a minor matter.
At most, they could come back after three days and start anew.
However, the mission had failed!
Not only had they failed to kill this young one and stop him from breaking Shi Qi's record, but they had also become a laughingstock, dragging the Stone Clan down with them...
Unbearable!
But being unable to bear it was useless; they truly couldn't beat him!
He had never expected this young one to be so terrifying.
It was just the First Stage! How could your combat power be this strong at the First Stage?! As they were still in shock, Shi Hao had already approached and said, "Do you want to come yourself, or should I take action?"
"You little beast!"
The clan elder's face twisted in anger, "Don't be so arrogant!"
"You can only be arrogant in the Starting Ground. If it were the real world, I could blow you away with a single breath!"
"Just wait, when I find you in the real world..."
Boom!
Shi Hao responded with a punch.
Instantly, the clan elder was knocked out, unable to utter another word.
This scene caused everyone's mouths to twitch uncontrollably.
Too arrogant!
This young one was truly arrogant, crazy, and ruthless! He even dared to offend the Stone Clan; his psychological quality must be incredibly strong!
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
At that moment, crisp applause sounded.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a graceful young man walking towards them.
His eyes were as deep as the stars, and each eye had two pupils, as if containing the endless mysteries of the universe.
His face was handsome, and his brows exuded a heroic spirit. His nose was high and straight, and his lips were like cherry blossoms, every detail showcasing an extraordinary quality.
His stature was like a mountain, and his aura was overwhelming, making people feel awe.
He walked with ease, and each step seemed to follow the rhythm of heaven and earth. His every movement exuded an innate nobility and dignity.
Standing there, he was like a ray of light, illuminating everything around him. His very existence was a silent force that made people's hearts tremble.
"Double Pupil Shi Qi!"
The double pupils were too distinctive.
Everyone recognized him and exclaimed that there was a good show to watch.
"A bunch of old fogies, meddling in others' affairs. Well done for killing them," Shi Qi said, leaving everyone stunned.
"In my life, why should I care about others' interference?"
Shi Qi stood opposite Shi Hao and said calmly, "But breaking my record is too fearless."
"I'll stand right here."
"I'll give you a chance to challenge me. How about it?"
