Who dares to fight?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice rumbled like thunder, brimming with majestic power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A stir arose in the beast camp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the imperial flame’s might displayed by Akatsuki Jin had made them highly wary of every human prodigy who would now step forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, a dark shadow slowly emerged—a massive beast resembling a wild boar, its entire body encased in thick, earth-yellow stone armor: the Qingyan Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its tusks jutted outward, nostrils exhaling yellow dust; though its demonic aura reached King-Hou realm, it was clearly just entering this level, far weaker than the previous Huodou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Beast side, Qingyan Beast, accepts the challenge!” the Qingyan Beast rumbled, its eyes betraying a faint trace of fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is this supposed to mean?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are they mocking us?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whispers rose from the human camp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Xia narrowed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tian Ji’s Horse Racing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beast side had clearly changed strategy: facing the formidable Qin Hao, they sent a relatively weaker opponent, aiming to exhaust him—or at least avoid further losses among their top prodigies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the thirteen matches were a long process; preserving top-tier strength was crucial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Ting’s face darkened: “They’re trading a common King-Hou to eliminate one of our top prodigies!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Wujiu also frowned: “We’ve been tricked—we’ll need to plan the order of our next fighters carefully!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Hao clearly saw through their intent.

Human, don’t get too arrogant!” The Qingyan Beast, enraged, dug its hooves into the ground and charged forward!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rock Collision!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its massive body surged forward like a moving mountain, slamming toward Qin Hao!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its stone armor radiated heavy earth-element spiritual energy, offering exceptional defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing this powerful charge, Qin Hao’s eyes hardened—he didn’t dodge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thunder Mark—Palm Divine Thunder!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lightning coalesced in his palm, instantly forming a thunderball the size of a human head, emitting a piercing electric screech as it blasted toward the Qingyan Beast’s skull!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thunderball struck the beast’s forehead with pinpoint accuracy, exploding in blinding lightning!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the Qingyan Beast’s stone defense was astonishing—the explosion only slightly slowed its momentum, leaving its head armor charred but not truly damaged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thick-skinned brute!” Qin Hao raised an eyebrow, using the recoil to drift backward, his hands swiftly forming seals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heavenly Thunder Call!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Crack!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thick silver lightning bolt materialized midair, like a sword of divine punishment, slashing down onto the Qingyan Beast’s back!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Roar!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Qingyan Beast howled in pain, its back armor split open, yellow blood seeping out; the lightning’s force paralyzed its body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not done yet! Thunder Bind!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Hao pressed his hands together; countless thin threads of lightning erupted from the air, rapidly coiling around the beast’s limbs and body, attempting to restrain its movement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Qingyan Beast struggled violently, unleashing earth-element spiritual energy that shattered many lightning chains, yet some remained wrapped around it, slowing its motions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn humans! Rock Spike Hell!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It roared and stomped the ground!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom! Boom! Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dozens of sharp rock spikes erupted from beneath Qin Hao’s feet and all around him, covering a vast area!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Hao moved nimbly, twisting and leaping through the air, his feet flashing with lightning as he narrowly evaded each spike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, he fired tiny lightning needles from his fingertips, precisely striking the most threatening spikes and shattering them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that all your tricks?” Qin Hao stabilized himself midair, watching the Qingyan Beast below, its aura growing chaotic from prolonged large-scale spellcasting, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then let’s end this!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew a deep breath; lightning surged around him once more, his hands clasped before his chest as an even more violent force of thunder began to gather!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thunder Art—World Annihilation!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thunderball over a meter in diameter rapidly formed in his palm, its surface writhing with electric serpents, radiating a destructive aura!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing the terrifying power within the thunderball, the Qingyan Beast finally showed fear—it tried to flee, but residual Thunder Bind chains and backlash from the rock spikes slowed its movement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Hao hurled the colossal lightning explosion forward!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thunderball screamed through space, striking the beast’s thick chest with crushing force as it stared in despair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom—!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deafening explosion erupted!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blinding lightning swallowed the Qingyan Beast’s massive form!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wild forces of thunder raged uncontrollably, tearing through its stone armor and destroying its life force!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the lightning faded, the Qingyan Beast lay motionless on the arena, a charred hole gaping in its chest, smoke curling from it—its aura gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second match ended far faster than the first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Hao, relying on absolute power and a slight elemental advantage, cleanly slaughtered his opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood on the arena, breathing lightly; though drained, he bore no injuries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cast a cold glance toward the beast camp, then turned and flew back to the human side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Second match, human side, Qin Hao, wins!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice of cosmic law announced the result.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The human camp erupted in cheers again—though less fervent than the first match, two consecutive victories undeniably lifted morale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beast camp, however, grew even darker. Their plan to exhaust Qin Hao with a weaker fighter had achieved limited success but failed to force out his true strength—and cost them another warrior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Xia watched Qin Hao return, silently calculating: on the human side, Akatsuki Jin was severely wounded, but Qin Hao, Du Gu Yun, Cui Jue, Li Jiuyuan, and himself remained combat-ready; Ye Lingxi, Ling Zhantian, and others were no less formidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the beast side, the top-tier mayfly had yet to appear; unknown powerful reserves still lurked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Third match, begin!” The voice of cosmic law gave neither side much time to recover, immediately announcing the next bout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All eyes turned once more to the Fallen God Platform. Every match henceforth would be crucial, determining the ultimate outcome of this struggle over fate and calamity.\u003C\u002Fp>",1088,"2026-06-20T15:06:04.061Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","37dc0768bf16429858e6e01a7c2f9d422aae63a5886068a45119cb6df4cca42e","global-high-martial-arts-starting-off-with-a-sha-chapter-132","global-high-martial-arts-starting-off-with-a-sha-chapter-130",162,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-high-martial-arts-starting-off-with-a-sha-cover.jpg"]
