The Favored Son of Heaven

Brooks vs Yang Lie!

 The Great Ensemble was like a fast-paced roulette. While the people were still mesmerized by Lu Dongbin’s battle against Caesar, the apex-level martial artists of the younger generation met.

 “I don’t know if I should consider myself to be unlucky or lucky.” Brooks simply pulled out the wide saber around his waist. Under the sunlight, it seemed to flash a dazzling light.

 “A little more unlucky, right?” Yang Lie waved his arm gently, smoothing out the heat in the air, “At least it means that one of us will have no chance to battle against Qin Fen on this Great Ensemble at all.”

 Brooks grinned and nodded in agreement. Except for the freak Xue Tian, although everyone considered themselves to be the strongest in the military headquarters of Saturn, they were clear that before the actual fight, everyone was pretty much on a par with each other. In addition to their performance on the spot, it really depended on which side God’s luck was with.

 “What a shame that one of us can’t play against Qin Fen on the Great Ensemble.” Brooks’s sword swayed gently in the air and flicked away the sand that had not landed on the ground yet around him, “Still, it’s not that regretful to the point of losing sleep. Worst comes to worst, we can just meet Old Qin after the Great Ensemble to spar with him. ”

 “You’re right. Why don’t you abstain this time?” Yang Lie smiled at Brooks.

 “Why don’t you abstain instead?” Brooks spat back at his friend defiantly, “How would that be the same as battling in such a grand event with such an atmosphere?”

 “Exactly.” Yang Lie looked up at the endless blue sky. The clouds in the sky had already disappeared from the impact of the battling crowds and the aura of power.

 The Great Ensemble! In addition to being able to compete with the world’s experts, the atmosphere here was also a kind of spiritual baptism for martial artists.

 “Since no one wants to concede.” Yang Lie shrugged his shoulders and slowly extended the Dragon fist stance, “Then, we’ll see what happens in this fight.”

 “Okay!”

 Brooks held the saber high above his head and supported the back of his knife with his left hand. He extended the bow-and-arrow step and stared as the Ice Dragon King Yang Lie was starting the new human being transformation!

 His wiggling muscles mixed with his flowing blood. For a while, Yang Lie’s inner body seemed like the surging torrents of thousands of Yangtze River, and a layer of keratin objects quickly appeared on his lustrous skin! The chilling true energy radiated outward from his body gradually, which made the entire heated battlefield’s temperature to drop continuously.

 “This is…”

 “Oh, God… What kind of transformation is this?”

 “Is this a biochemical beast? It’s different from the rumors.”

 The people watching the battle through the Internet were stunned and surprised to see the rapid changes of Ice Dragon King Yang Lie’s body. It had exceeded the theories of the public’s general knowledge.

 

New human being! In this world, apart from the group of apex-level people who vaguely knew a little about it, ordinary people had no idea that Lin Liqiang was teaming up with Enzo Rota, leading countless top biology and medical experts as well as scholars to carry out a super experiment which would be a huge leap for human being’s future.

 “This is the new human being?” Zhang Hao crossed his legs, lying on the ground. His crimson eyes bloomed with surprise as he witnessed such new things, “Unfortunately, such a group of geniuses didn’t follow the right path of studying the invincible insect warriors, but researched on the so-called new human being instead. What a waste.”

 The new human being transformation was longer than Qin Fen’s expectation. It took a full one and a half second was needed for Yang Lie to complete his Ice Dragon Type new human being transformation.

 Yang Lie, who was one point eight meters in height, had become two meters tall. His slender figure was covered densely with a layer of scale-like keratin. This almost non-human appearance did not give people an ugly impression like the insect warriors; it exuded some kind of exotic beauty.

 Its appearance was not exactly like the dragons described in myths, but its temperament had a bewitching effect on the people watching, as if everything had become unreal. It was as if the one standing opposite Brooks was a dragon from myths and legends!

 The martial dao masters’ faces were much more somber than ordinary peoples’ watching through the Internet. With only one and a half second, Yang Lie’s greatness had left them almost speechless! He was not just powerful in terms of energy, but also physically!

 Which martial dao master’s body was not bulky and strong to the point of abnormality? However, Yang Lie’s body gave these martial dao masters a sense of being extraordinarily abnormal!

 Even if we reached Yang Lie’s current strength level, it is impossible to possess such an abnormal body! All martial dao masters had the same speculation.

 The corner of Song Wendong’s eyebrow twitched unexpectedly; there was a trace of admiration and surprise in his eyes.

 Shang Guan Sheng Yu’s lips opened slightly, her eyebrows showed a lot of contemplation, and her eyes couldn’t help but look at Du Peng again.

 It is absolutely impossible for the new human being project to be kept secret from the divine beast martial artists. However, no one thought that the new human being could reach such a level.

 “Dear seniors.” Yang Lie slowly tilted his head and looked at the divine beast martial artists who were high above him, “This is the new human being transformation! I am honored to be one of the earliest new human beings. What makes me even happier is that even without the help of a super nano battle suit, I can also fully unleash my power in any space without being restricted by different forces… ”

 Several divine beast martial artists’ bodies shook slightly at the same time. The Black Tortoise who was always in a drowsy state opened his eyes suddenly and they sparkled like the lights from sharp swords.

 Free from space constraints! Unleash full power freely! Compared to the news that the new human being could enhance the users’ combat power, these messages from Yang Lie were more appealing to the divine beast martial artists.

 It was rumored that successful insect warriors could also be free from space constraints. However, was there really a complete body of insect warriors today? Young Hades might be a complete body, but once he became an insect warrior, he would have a serious killing mood. This was completely in contrast to his own martial dao, and so executing the insect warrior evolution would most likely cause a great decline in strength.

 Even if the insect warrior evolution did not cause a plunge in strength, Zhang Hao’s character made all the divine beasts doubtful. No one could guarantee whether he would tamper with their bodies in the middle of executing the evolution if they were to surrender their bodies to Zhang Hao’s Founding Society.

 Dragon Hall! Although it hasn’t been established for a long time, Qin Fen’s martial dao has determined the nature of Dragon Hall. They would definitely not do anything sneaky.

 After a brief period of surprise, the divine beast martial artists restored their original expressions as if the surprise a while ago never happened at all. No one knew what they were thinking.

 Qin Fen glanced at the several divine beast martial artists not far away, and his lips formed a faint smile. If Lin Liqiang’s success rate is higher, and there is a new human being evolution direction which was suitable for certain divine beast martial artists, Lin Liqiang will soon be able to experiment with divine beast martial artists’ bodies.

 Qin Fen, whose martial strength had developed to the divine beasts martial artists’ level, was very clear about the divine beasts martial artists’ mentality. What about the external force? What about the internal force? What if they were pure humans? All of this was not a problem at all in their eyes. Any power that entered their bodies would definitely become their purest power.

 The battle bells sounded from the sky. In an instant, the strength of Brooks’ feet made the scattered sand hard as iron. With a dragon’s cry, the saber in his hands illuminated a saber blaze that lit up the space. Even the spectators who were watching the broadcast on the Internet were unable to open their eyes due to the blazing screens. The martial dao masters also raised their hands subconsciously to block the flying saber light ray. This saber light ray had already possessed real lethality; if they didn’t block the ray, it might cause their eyes to go blind!

 Sky Splitter!

 A ray of saber light was like an attack from thousands of cosmic laser cannons that shot down from the air. It was also like a huge fan made of pure light which split the sky suddenly.

 This attack was extremely fast; even the martial dao masters’ thoughts couldn’t keep up with this attack.

 At the moment Yang Lie saw Brooks’ movement, he cried out secretly, Oh no! Sky Splitter has gathered all of Brooks’ vitality, energy, and spirits. His sword technique can be said to be a real success! In an instant, his strength reached its true limit!

 There must be certain advantages so that the new human being was deemed the new human being! Especially when Yang Lie’s new human being was one of the strongest Dragon Type in the new human being. The strengthened body and response gave him the ability to close his eyes completely without looking at the invincible saber. He used the Dragon Guard stance while slamming his feet on the ground continuously, charging toward Brooks against the saber rays.

 Puff! Among the light rays, the vitality was so strong that Yang Lie collided with Sky Splitter firmly. The martial dao masters present were unable to see the fighting situation clearly at all.

 

Boom…

 A strong arm covered with blood fell onto the sandy ground. Yang Lie’s right fist was three inches from Brooks’s jaw, and his left shoulder was spurting with fresh blood.

 Game over! Yang Lie won with a broken arm.

 People were stunned while they watched the situation on the field. No one would think that such good brothers were actually so brutal and merciless when they fight. Half of Yang Lie’s shoulder was chopped off!

 They were desperate!

 “What a pity…” Brooks shook his head lightly while looking at the smile on Yang Lie’s face. “What a pity…”

 “Yeah…” Yang Lie ignored the wound that started to squirm and regenerate his arm. He straightened his body slowly and looked at Brooks, “Unfortunately, I am not your deadly enemy.”

 

“Yeah, it’s also unfortunate that you are the new human being.” Brooks couldn’t help but praise, “The new human being is indeed unique. The speed of reaction is beyond my consideration.”

 “Yeah, but it’s a pity that I am not your deadly rival.”

 “Yes.” Brooks had a layer of sweat on his face. Although it was only a stab, the energy consumption of this slash was comparable to thousands of slashes, “If you were my enemy and deadly rival, you may not be the person who won just now.”

 “Yes, your Sky Splitter made the first move. The speed was unexpected for me. If I was your deadly rival, I may have been slashed to death by you just now. Sparring is indeed a little different from a life and death battle.” Yang Lie patted his strong regenerated arm while looking at Qin Fen with a smile, “I hope the next draw will be me against you.”

 

“If there is another Great Ensemble…” Jupiter Azure Dragon said faintly as he looked at the ruined battlefield, “I, Jupiter, will not host it again.”

 Several divine beast martial artists revealed embarrassed smiles. This time, the Great Ensemble was too destructive. Brooks’ slash didn’t seem to have much power as it had only cut one of Yang Lie’s arms, but only the real experts knew that if all the sand on the ground was cleaned up, one will see the scary saber marks under it. As to how deep the saber slashed? One would really need to use a laser measuring device to measure the effect it left.
