C405

Hua Ruge felt the resentment in the hall, but did not want to bother with it. She thought that if Tuoba Rui was not his opponent, she would call out Little Marten and Golden Dragon for help.

Nangong Hai regained his senses, narrowed his eyes and asked Tuoba Rui: "Are you sure you want to fight with me?"

"Yes, is Martial Uncle willing to fight?" Tuoba Rui smirked, he was confident and calm.

Nangong Hai was immediately angered when he was looked at with such a gaze by a junior, and said harshly: "Tuoba Rui, since you do not know your limits, I will teach you a lesson."

"Do you agree to the bet?" Tuoba Rui asked again.

Nangong Hai scoffed, "If I lose to a little kid like you, forget about Yue'er, I can even give you this old bone of mine."

"I don't dare." As Tuoba Rui spoke, he raised his hand and said, "Back into the barrier."

The Law Enforcement Hall ordered everyone to retreat. Each hall had a barrier in front of them in order to avoid harming other people and buildings when sparring.

Tuoba Rui turned around and said to Hua Ruge: "Go, stand outside."

"I don't need to, I can't hurt you here." Hua Ruge said.

Before Tuoba Rui could make a sound, Nangong Hai said angrily, "You, this scourge, actually dares to spout such arrogant words."

In his eyes, he was just a Sacred Level Battle Master. Even Sacred Level Soul Master had to give way to him, not to mention a mere three-star.

Hearing that, Hua Ruge blinked his eyes, and thought that it was true that people would not like him.

She didn't want to provoke Nangong Hai, so she stuck out her tongue at him and said: "Then I'll go out first. You be careful."

"Alright." Tuoba Rui replied with a smile.

From start to finish, the ant-like existence in Nangong Hai's eyes had not paid any attention to him, and this made him even angrier than if he had been scolded.

She was too arrogant.

Hua Ruge, who had retreated a few steps, looked at Nangong Hai's increasingly red face and felt helpless about it. This person was truly glass-hearted, even she would be angered if she did not counterattack.

After everyone had retreated, Tuoba Rui said to Nangong Hai: "Martial Uncle, let's begin."

Only now did Nangong Hai's gaze shift away from Hua Ruge's body. With an angry snort, he waved his hand and covered the barrier with it.

Hua Ruge took note of the energy in the barrier. It was pretty strong, she wouldn't be able to break it.

Inside the barrier, Nangong Hai held back his anger. He took out his Mountain Splitting Axe right at the start and stood in mid air.

Tuoba Rui was also standing in midair, but he had both his hands behind his back and did not take out any magic tools.

Hua Ruge remembered that Tuoba Rui had a Divine Sword that was not inferior to the Great Cauldron in his hands. If he took it out, it would be extremely helpful, but he did not.

She couldn't help but secretly click her tongue in her heart. Wasn't this guy a bit too arrogant?

Other people had never seen Tuoba Rui's weapon before, but seeing that Tuoba Rui was still not taking one at this time, they could not understand.

In the air, Nangong Hai frowned: "Where are your weapons?"

"I'm not good with swords." Tuoba Rui smirked.

Nangong Hai's eyes became even angrier after hearing what he said. "Do you look down on me?"

"Thank you, Martial Uncle."

"You're courting death!" Nangong Hai roared, and chopped down with his axe.

When he gathered all his strength, the gigantic axe shone with a golden light, the light actually becoming more than ten meters long, slashing straight towards Tuoba Rui's head.

Tuoba Rui also slightly narrowed his eyes at this time. With a push of his palm, a silver handprint was formed in the air, and then, as the wind blew, it grew larger and larger, welcoming the brilliant light.

The power of this palm strike didn't seem to be as great as the power of the light, but it gave off an extremely mysterious feeling, as if it contained some kind of law that couldn't be defied.

"Bam!"

The clash of the two powers carried a huge amount of aftershock energy as it attacked towards the two people.

Nangong Hai was shocked, and retreated two steps.

Tuoba Rui however waved his big sleeve, as though he had already expected this would happen, and shifted to his side, not panicking at all.

The huge wave of energy struck the barrier, leaving a lingering fear in the hearts of those standing outside.

After this move passed, everyone felt that it was unbelievable, because it seemed to be a tie, and Tuoba Rui seemed to be more at ease.

No one thought that Tuoba Rui would dare to clash head on with Nangong Hai, much less that it would turn out like this.

Based on their strength, this was impossible.

Hua Ruge swallowed her saliva. All she could think about was that palm imprint he made, she had a nagging feeling that the power contained inside was not what she normally felt.

That kind of power was hard to fathom. Even the trajectory of the palm imprint ? Perfect.

In modern times, she had heard of the golden division. It was a type of mysterious rule that no one could explain, but anything that followed this rule would be perfect.

And now, Tuoba Rui had made her think of all these.

Tuoba Rui also followed some sort of rule, it was just that this may be even more mysterious and unexplainable.

"You actually broke through the fifth layer of this cultivation technique?" Nangong Hai asked in shock.

Tuoba Rui said indifferently, "If not for this year of unconsciousness, I might have reached the sixth floor."

Nangong Hai's eyes flashed with fear, he had never heard of anyone with such a good perception.

"If Martial Uncle knew the reason for my disease, he wouldn't be this shocked." Tuoba Rui calmly explained.

Not only did the barrier isolate power, it also blocked sound at the same time. Outsiders could only see their lips moving, but they couldn't hear what they were saying.

Hua Ruge had never learned how to speak with lips before, but she understood Tuoba Rui quite well. She could faintly see that he had said the word "hidden ailment", so she wrote it down and planned to ask him about it later.

"You think you can scare me?" Nangong Hai suddenly laughed: No matter how heaven defying your technique is, your strength is limited, your ability will be even more limited, I want to see who will lose in the end!

Nangong Hai said, and chopped down with his axe, although it looked like a simple move, it contained a large amount of power, and with one strike, it sealed all of Tuoba Rui's escape routes, leaving him no choice but to take it head on.

The corner of Tuoba Rui's mouth raised, as though he still felt that this was not stimulating enough, when he threw out his palm, he quickly closed in on Nangong Hai.

After a single setback, he had already arrived in front of Nangong Hai. Unexpectedly, without using his large hand, he started to fight with Nangong Hai in close quarters just like that.

This frightened everyone. In close combat, every move was fatal. If he rushed forward so rashly, he wouldn't even have the chance to retreat if he couldn't beat his opponent in a single move.

Nangong Hai was also shocked, but Tuoba Rui did not give him any chance to react, and immediately attacked.

His strength was not strong, but his speed was extremely fast. Nangong Hai often did not have the chance to gather his strength and would have to fight, and in a dozen or so moves, Tuoba Rui actually did not suffer much.

Hua Ruge was curious about Tuoba Rui's fighting strength, but quickly thought of the time she inspected his body two days ago, and realised that his meridians had improved a little after consuming the Herba Flavescentis.1

Could it be because of this small improvement that his strength had greatly increased?

How terrible it would be if he was completely recovered.
