The bombardnt was relentless, the roar never ceased, buildings kept collapsing, and figures swiftly shuttled through Zhouyun City.
At this mont, Zhouyun City gathered half of Hua Country’s experts. Apart from the students and helpers participating in the King Becoming plan, there were forty to fifty kings.
The army appeared, a large number of experts flooded in, and in less than an hour, the Demon Beasts were already mostly cleared.
The Demon Beast army, despite its imnse numbers, was primarily made up of Mid and Low-Level Demon Beasts, with only over ten thousand Advanced ones, and not many King Level Demon Beasts.
With the deterrence of Hong Tao and the others, even the Emperor Level Demon Beasts dared not act rashly.
The Emperor Level Demon Beasts were highly intelligent and wouldn’t easily wage war against humans.
Humans were the sa, they wouldn’t easily hunt Emperor Level Demon Beasts.
Neither side had the power to completely annihilate the other.
Even if they did, the losses would be significant.
Under the threat of the Alien Race, both sides maintained a special balance.
The Demon Beast army breaking through Zhouyun City was more due to the suddenness of the event, leaving Shangjing no ti to react.
Various mighty figures were hunting the Demon Beasts in different ways.
Among them, Yang Qing was definitely a standout.
He acted alone, without cooperation from others.
His speed in hunting Demon Beasts far surpassed the other kings.
At this mont, he was strolling through the Demon Beast horde.
The Demon Spirit he refined was the Ninth Tier Devil Mantis; in his Demon Transformation state, his legs appeared extrely elongated, standing at three ters tall. His pitch-black eyes turned dark green, his entire body was covered in black carapace marked with dark red patterns.
His hands resembled the scythe-like forelimbs of a mantis, curved, potentially extending to three ters, with a row of hard serrations and two dark red lines stretching from his feet to his face. In this state, he appeared quite fierce and ferocious.
Despite being amid the Demon Beast horde, Yang Qing seed at ease, behaving with extre relaxation.
Even with elegance.
He turned hunting into an art form.
The art of hunting.
Without using a Soul Skill, rely relying on speed and strength, he wantonly slew one Demon Beast after another, and in just a few seconds, seventeen Advanced Demon Beasts were decapitated.
"Hoo..."
A gust of strong wind blew past, and a giant avian covered in azure scales descended from the sky, its size imnse, overshadowing much of the sky.
It had obviously spotted Yang Qing on the ground, letting out a fierce avian shriek, rapidly flapping its wings, and instantly forming several dozen-ter-long Wind Blades shooting towards Yang Qing.
Dozens of Wind Blades shot down simultaneously, slicing a skyscraper into pieces, enveloping Yang Qing from all angles.
Facing the mortal threat, Yang Qing seed unfazed, rely standing still, looking up at the sky.
It wasn’t until the Wind Blades disintegrated him into pieces that it was revealed to be a Phantom.
Unbeknownst to all, Yang Qing had already silently appeared above the ferocious bird, crossed his arms to strike, blood splattered, the bird’s head fell, its wings feebly flapped twice, and its body followed suit.
With a resounding "boom," dust rose as if an earthquake occurred.
This colossal commotion drew considerable attention, the massive avian was already eye-catching, and so beheld the bird being slain with a single strike, their eyes filled with shock.
An avian nearly King Level felled with one blow?
Could even a king be this formidable?
"Who is this humanoid mantis, cutting down in a single stroke, so powerful!"
Soone wondered, but upon seeing Yang Qing’s appearance, it dawned on them.
As the Yang Family’s representative, Yang Qing’s fa was not insignificant, and since he sealed the Nine Star Space Gate and obtained a Nine Star Key to beco one of Shangjing’s Guardians, his fa spread nationwide.
After acquiring the key, he broke through the Martial King Realm and, in just two years, stepped into the Spirit King Realm.
Now at the Double King Realm!
The Double King Realm Yang Qing is even stronger than a Middle Rank Spirit King.
"Dammit, they’re all monsters!"
"Shangjing Thirteen, they’ve always been very famous!"
"Yes, so many freaks along the way, I feel utterly feeble!"
"Yang Qing is better, being at the Double King Realm. But isn’t Lin Feng’s team more exaggerated, encircling an Upper Rank Spirit King and succeeding?"
"Yang Ningbing absorbed the Divine Level Soul Skill [Thunder Tribulation], how lucky, though Ghost Eight was careless, otherwise, it wouldn’t have been surrounded and killed."
"Lin Feng’s team must have hidden their strength."
"Definitely, otherwise how dare they participate in the King Becoming plan, they must at least possess Eighth Grade, even Ninth Grade strength."
"I heard He Jun refined a sacrificial type Demon Spirit, which quickly boosts teammates’ strength as long as they hunt Demon Beasts."
"What kind of sacrificial Demon Spirit is so monstrous!"
Many discussed, their tone laced with amazent.
Yang Qing flapped his black wings, floating mid-air, his eyes showing a hint of shock.
The surrounding discussions weren’t deliberately hushed, so he heard them clearly.
Encircling an Upper Rank Spirit King?
How could a squad without any kings compete with an Upper Rank Spirit King?
Moreover, what he heard was surrounding and killing?
Even he couldn’t kill an Upper Rank Spirit King.
His strength might contend with an Upper Rank Spirit King, but he couldn’t kill them.
Contending and killing are two different concepts.
The widespread news already proved its reliability, yet he dared not believe.
Nor did he wish to believe.
The fact that Yang Ningbing absorbed [Thunder Tribulation] also caught him off guard.
Where did Yang Ningbing acquire a Divine Level Soul Skill?
Recently the prices of Soul Skills skyrocketed, even he couldn’t afford Divine Level ones.
Furthermore, a skill of such high level shouldn’t be absorbed until the ninth or even the tenth Soul Skill for a higher success chance, right?
"He Jun!"
An image of a girl surfaced in Yang Qing’s mind.
He rembered He Jun.
He had also reviewed the information on Lin Feng’s team.
His father Yang Qingtian particularly ntioned this girl. There’s so speculation about He Jun’s abilities, so he wasn’t surprised.
Yet it far exceeded his expectations.
"Going crazy!"
Yang Qing glanced toward the ground, thinking to himself.
A squad capable of encircling and killing an Upper Rank Spirit King was enough to draw the attention of major forces.
And the squad mbers were a group of talented, not yet fully developed young people.
Their average age was under 25, so hadn’t even graduated college yet.
A week later, they would participate in the world-renowned King Becoming plan.
If they could encircle and kill an Upper Rank Spirit King now, what about when they beca kings?
It wasn’t just a simple squad.
Moreover, half the squad mbers weren’t grassroots either, each backed by families and conglorates.
Even the Yang Family couldn’t oppose such a squad.
And the squad leader was rely a 21-year-old youth.
A child he once abandoned.
