Chapter 567: Breaking the Ten Rings with One Punch! (Second update, please subscribe!)

~7 min read 1,216 words

Although Ying Nan liked the Ten Rings, she had no intention of forcibly seizing them for herself.

Seeing the other party staring straight at the Ten Rings, Ying Nan flicked her arm slightly, and the Ten Rings flew off her arm, landing in front of Wenwu.

It had to be said that the people of Ta Lo village were all very upright and decent; otherwise, they couldn't have guarded the seal of the Dark Gate.

After all, anyone with impure thoughts or selfish motives could potentially be influenced by the Soul Eater and bewitched by it.

Wenwu glanced at the dim, lusterless Ten Rings, took them back, and breathed a sigh of relief.

With the Ten Rings back on his arms, Wenwu slowly stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said in a deep voice: "I lost, but I must enter Ta Lo."

"You, don't be ungrateful!" Ying Nan frowned and scolded.

Wenwu remained silent, but his attitude was very firm.

He had already conquered many places, and Ta Lo was the target he wanted to conquer now, especially after the other party could master the Ten Rings; he was even less willing to give up.

He had to figure out why the people of Ta Lo could master the Ten Rings, and then... ensure that from now on, only he could master the Ten Rings!

This thought was very normal; anyone would find it unacceptable for someone else to easily snatch a divine artifact like the Ten Rings from their hands and unleash even greater power than they could!

"Since you insist on entering Ta Lo, fine, I'll give you a chance."

"Three rounds; as long as you can win any one of them, I'll let you enter Ta Lo. If you lose all of them, leave the Ten Rings behind."

Su Quan's proposal made Wenwu ponder for a moment, and then he said: "Before the outcome is decided, you cannot snatch the Ten Rings."

"Fine!"

Su Quan agreed.

With Ying Li's strength, even without snatching the Ten Rings, she could still beat Wenwu.

As for himself, did he even need to say more?

"Then, let's start the second round."

Wenwu took his stance, and the Ten Rings lit up with blue light again.

Ying Li, just like Ying Nan before, slid toward Wenwu and attacked directly.

The sisters' kung fu was identical, both following a path of elegance and agility, borrowing force to use force, and overcoming hardness with softness.

Wenwu's martial arts belonged to the "Iron Horse Hard Bridge" style, with every move being open and grand, rigid and domineering; paired with the Ten Rings, the fighting was thunderous and earth-shattering.

It was just that...

All that operation was fierce as a tiger, but the output was only two-fifty.

Besides smashing a few rocks and breaking a few trees, he hadn't even touched the corner of Ying Li's clothes.

Ying Li was at ease, graceful as a fairy, not only easily dodging and neutralizing Wenwu's attacks but also clashing with the Ten Rings using the Power of the Divine Dragon several times.

In terms of power, the Ten Rings were definitely stronger than the Power of the Divine Dragon, but Wenwu hadn't truly mastered the Ten Rings, and his development level was roughly equal to zero.

And his own kung fu was far inferior to Ying Li's, so the result... could be imagined!

After a hundred moves, Ying Li seized the opportunity and attacked Wenwu fiercely while the Ten Rings were flying out and hadn't yet returned.

"Bang!"

Ying Li backhanded the returning Ten Rings away, then moved like a startled swan, quickly changing her moves, and then punched Wenwu in the chest.

This punch was neither off-center nor biased, landing exactly on the spot where Wenwu had been injured when fighting Ying Nan earlier.

*Step, step, step... * Wenwu retreated several steps, took back the Ten Rings, and suppressed the churning blood in his throat.

"I lost."

Although Wenwu was unwilling, he frankly admitted his defeat.

"Do you want to rest?" Su Quan asked Wenwu.

Wenwu didn't try to be brave and nodded, walking to the side to rest on his own.

He had already lost two of the three rounds; for the last one, even if he didn't want to admit it, he knew his chances of winning were very slim.

The final opponent looked like the one who was truly in charge; under normal circumstances, his strength was definitely stronger than the two women before!

However, Wenwu wasn't prepared to give up!

Having fought for many years, there weren't many places or people left that could stir his ambition.

Having gone to such lengths and finally finding Ta Lo, how could he give up?!

Even if he lost, he had to know himself and his enemy so he could make a comeback in the future!

An hour later, Wenwu stood up and nodded at Su Quan.

Su Quan walked slowly toward Wenwu and saw Wenwu pull out the Ten Rings, five in a group, with energy connecting the rings, as if they were two whips, waving them rapidly left and right.

As he waved them, they gradually formed a blue circular energy protective shield.

Was he trying to defend instead of attack?

Wenwu had changed his strategy.

There was no point in deceiving himself; he knew very well that Su Quan's strength was definitely no less than those two women.

His chances of winning were very low.

Let him give up entering Ta Lo?

He wasn't reconciled!

The entrance to Ta Lo only opened once a year; even if he left now and went back to gather his troops, it would be useless...

He definitely couldn't enter Ta Lo this year, so he might as well take the opportunity to learn more about the other party's strength and abilities!

Even if he left the Ten Rings behind, he could naturally get them back when he made a comeback next year!

He had that confidence.

So he gave up attacking, and even gave up winning, defending with all his might just to learn more.

The Ten Rings were danced by him with great vigor, and the energy protective shield could be described as impenetrable.

Su Quan watched his actions and somewhat guessed his intention.

"Want to see my skills? I'm afraid you'll be disappointed..."

Su Quan walked leisurely to Wenwu's front, looked at Wenwu's slightly solemn expression, smiled dismissively, and punched out with a roar.

The fist hit the energy protective shield created by the Ten Rings, and with a *bang*, the impenetrable protective shield suddenly stalled.

Immediately after, the sound of *crack, crack* shattering rang out.

The protective shield had developed cracks.

Wenwu's expression froze, his eyes widening in disbelief.

"How is this possible?"

"What kind of monster strength is this, to be able to shatter the Ten Rings' protective shield with one punch?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Wenwu, terrified in his heart, continuously channeled the energy of the Ten Rings, attempting to repair the cracks and enhance the protective shield's defensive effect.

But this was like a swimming pool that was draining while being filled; the speed of the draining was far less than the speed of the filling, and the pool could never be filled.
