Gu Dekang shuddered all over yet didn't say anything. Jiang Xiu continued to speak, "I heard that Senior Official's division ranked 2nd from the back in the army competition?"
Jiang Xiu targeted his sore spot. Gu Dekang's face took blow due to this. He retorted gloomily, "So what?"
"Yes. Maybe, the ranking will be the last next year."
"Humph!"
Gu Dekang fumed with anger, "My division will recruit many heroes into the army this year. Though we can't rank in the top three, we'll at least rank in the middle."
Jiang Xiu shook his head, "It'll be difficult for you to recruit people."
"Why?"
"Because you aren't worthy of it!"
"What did you say?!"
Gu Dekang got furious. The personal guard behind him couldn't endure it any longer. These words had evoked their rage.
"Audacious!"
"Savage."
"Brat, you're really daring!"
Jiang Xiu's indifferent gaze swept past them, "A person like you isn't worthy of letting someone sacrifice their life for you."
"This Deity shall cripple anyone who dares to join your division."
Gu Dekang's face went sour. He was left with no face at all, being bullied so openly.
"What did you say?"
The guards got ready to attack Jiang Xiu.
A murderous killing intent filled Gu Dekang's eyes, "Mr. Jiang, do you plan to become my division's enemy?"
With his hands behind him, Jiang Xiu asked in return, "So what if I am?"
The coldness in Gu Dekang's gaze became denser. He surmised that Jiang Xiu possessed enough strength as he had so lightly blocked Xiaowu's punch. He was a young talent but too arrogant and considered everyone beneath him. Even if Gu Dekang wanted to use a person, he would be troubled as this kind of person with no sense of propriety would rush towards doom sooner or later, meeting with a violent death in the end.
Master Guo, who got recruited into the division just a moment ago, walked out with jazz. He cupped his fists, "This humble person is Eight-Arms Fist, Guo You. Pardon me for asking sir to let me experience your skills."
"This kid is too brash. Master Guo will surely entertain him well."
"It would be best if all his limbs are broken."
"Revenge must be taken for Xiaowu."
The people from Luo Yin Sect also whispered at a distance. One of the middle-aged men among them said, "This Mr. Jiang is too brash. He actually provoked Senior Offical and became hostile to him publically."
"I guess he won't leaving from here today."
"That's the consequence of his actions."
Old Father Luo also commented, "Martial artists were like this before. Since the host has invited them, they shouldn't be insulted lest it'll lead to them pulling out the sword. This is the style of genuine martial artists. They aren't moved by money or kill people for chump change. People from your generation can't understand this."
Were it not for his descendants, he too wouldn't have bowed towards an official.
"Who will win then?"
"That's hard to say, Master Guo should be the stronger…"
"Hah!"
Master Guo stamped the floor with his right foot, resulting in the stone bricks under his foot to rupture. The fragments flew to all sides as dust rose up. He dashed out right after that.
The fragments cut the branches of trees to the side as well as broke the window glasses.
The momentum was a hundredfold greater than Xiaowu's.
"Eight-Arms Fist!"
He moved to the side and arched his back, taking advantage of his extended arm, pressuring it downwards. At this moment, it seemed as if his arm was a blade chopping down, even cutting the air apart as it fell.
The guards were all stunned by this. Especially the guard who fought with him before. It seemed that Master Guo hadn't used all his strength in their fight to give some face to him.
"A true expert!"
Old Father Luo commented, "This person's Eight-Arms Fist has already reached the Supreme stage. The bones in his arms must be as hard as iron. That brat will surely suffer."
The wind hissed as the punch fell!
Guo You was quite confident in his punch. It was quite tricky even for a Supreme stage Grandmaster to block this punch. It was an ancient fist style which utilized the inner essence to strengthen the outer body. The Qi and Blood in his body surged over like crazy seave waves. He believed that even a Demigod wouldn't dare to receive this punch.
This punch was the rest of 40 years of arduous cultivation.
"You lose!"
Jiang Xiu merely smiled faintly towards Guo You who was approaching with high momentum. He stood there with his hands behind him, appearing as if he was terrified. As the fist was about to hit Jiang Xiu's forehead, he suddenly reached out and blocked it with ease.
Smack!
Jiang Xiu's palm gripped Guo You's fist rigidly.
"Kacha!"
Just like Xiaowu's, Guo You's arm was twisted and broken. A mournful scream resounded in the entire area as Guo You fell to the ground, kneeling down in pain.
"What the…"
The entire place went silent.
An Inner Strength expert was done in, and so was a Supreme stage Grandmaster. Both didn't seem to have any difference to him.
"How is this possible?"
Everyone was extremely shocked.
Jiang Xiu said indifferently, "Do you remember this Deity's words? Are you going to enter the division now?"
Cold sweat poured down Guo You's forehead, "I-I won't!"
Jiang Xiu released his hand.
Guo You's face twitched due to the pain, but he clenched his teeth, "I'll never agree to enter it in my entire lifetime. Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for your instruction."
He supported his right hand with his left and departed with a sorry figure, not even giving Gu Dekang a glance.
He thanked the heavens in his heart that Jiang Xiu hadn't broken all his limbs.
"Senior Official, you have anything else to say?"
Gu Dekang's face got flushed with anger. He hadn't received such humiliation even when his division came up 2nd from back in the army competition.
The guards didn't say a thing as well. This was no matter to joke about. Even a Supreme stage Grandmaster had suffered a defeat, they weren't on the same level."
"You think you're amazing just because you've defeated Master Guo?"
"Old Father Luo, if you defeat this person, I'll bestow a Colonel rank to you."
The others made a commotion after hearing this.
They had strived in the army for many years yet this position was something unattainable to them. It was their lifetime goal, but this Old Father had so easily obtained a chance to receive it.
"Senior Official, do you truly mean that?"
"The army never goes back on its words."
"Alright!"
He had come along this time to meet Gu Dekang so he could seek riches and honour for his descendants. These were the most important in the current era, so he didn't find it reasonable to refuse this offer.
"Mr. Jiang's really skilled. This humble person is Luo Yin Sect's Luo Yihao."
"I ask for sir's instruction!"
Jiang Xiu looked at him insipidly, "You want this Deity to break your left hand or the right?"
"Brat, you're acting too arrogant!"
"Father, let him experience our Luo Yin Sect's, Heavenly Luo Arcana Fist."
The Luo Yin Sect was called the Hell Sect before, they used to believe in a religion. At the time when the Republic of China was flourishing, the core of the sect had left for overseas during the time of political unrest, leaving only a branch behind which slowly devolved into the current Luo Yin Sect. Only, according to the stories, the Hell Sect possessed many mysterious spells involving the supernatural.
One of them was called the Dreamlink. The person using it would fight in a dreaming state. It was quite a mysterious skill. To sum it up, the person would know how the opponent attacks beforehand. The Luo Yin Sect had lost the essence of its heritage, so they changed the name of the fist style to Heavenly Luo Arcana Fist.
It was due to the Hell Sect's reputation that Gu Dekang held Old Father Luo with importance.
Old Father Luo's movement wasn't ordinary. He seemed to have disappeared and only his afterimage as visible as he attacked Jiang Xiu.
He shifted left and right in a strange manner.
"Hmm?"
Jiang Xiu could notice the traces of Lin Zhenbei's skill which he used against Chu Tiannan. This technique was similar to that.
The others cried out in alarm as they could only see the afterimages.
"Good…" Gu Dekang shouted excitedly.
He had finally witnessed a real expert's skill.
"With such a speed, it would be difficult to for someone to even take a shot at him."
"With such an expert, there's no need to fear not winning the army competition next year as well as handling this impudent brat."
It was no longer a hopeless dream.
This skill was just inhuman.
"Senior Official!" Yan Zhen was also excited. This was almost reaching the Demigod stage, the peak of mortal martial arts.
This was too exciting!
"Who don't you accept defeat? Mr. Jiang, you can't even lock onto my location…"
All the afterimages dashed towards Jiang Xiu as he said this.
He had finally made his move!
"Hahaha…"
The afterimages all stopped as Jiang Xiu caught Old Father Luo's hands.
"Impossible!"
All the people from the Luo family, as well as the rest of them, were utterly shocked.
This felt too fraudulent to them as the youth had caught the arms of every opponent!!
"Kacha!"
Both the arms were snapped. Jiang Xiu's indifferent voice, "This Deity asked you to choose the left hand or the right one, but since you didn't pick one, I broke both of them."
Gu Dekang's face changed colors as his body shuddered.
