Chapter 247: Battle Luo Ping, the Fourfold Thunder Demon Slash!

"Defeat me, and even if I give you the Young Marshal position, what of it?"

Su Yu slightly lifted his chin, his gaze looking disdainfully at Luo Ping.

Luo Ping, hearing Su Yu's words, was first stunned, then a look of wild joy rose from deep within his eyes.

The reason he stepped forward was precisely because he believed the Young Marshal position should be his.

Su Yu's appearance snatched that position from him.

So he stepped forward.

He just didn't expect the Slay Dragon King's temper to be so volatile; he was almost about to be condemned by ten thousand men.

In any case, Su Yu spoke up, and the Slay Dragon King fell silent.

But that doesn't mean he no longer wants to contest the Young Marshal position.

The previous excuse may no longer work, but now that Su Yu said it himself, even the Slay Dragon King can't backtrack, right?

However, having learned from the previous mishap, Luo Ping looked at the Slay Dragon King.

The Slay Dragon King, though somewhat disgusted with Luo Ping, still said lightly.

"Defeat Su Yu, and even if the Young Marshal position is given to you, so what?"

Hearing the Slay Dragon King's words, Luo Ping's heart leapt with wild joy, his pulse quickening a few beats.

He took a deep breath and slowly walked onto the plaza.

"Then I shall respectfully obey!"

Watching the scene before them, the Frenzy King and the Yin Ghost King furrowed their brows slightly.

The Yin Ghost King then transmitted his voice to the Slay Dragon King.

"Commander, Su Yu is only at the mid‑stage of the Flying Heaven Realm, whereas Luo Ping broke through to the Grandmaster realm a month ago; what if Su Yu fails?"

Although Su Yu's combat power is extraordinary, the Yin Ghost King sees it as confined to the Flying Heaven Realm; once it reaches the Grandmaster realm, it would be entirely different.

The previous Bai Chen, though he forced his way to the Grandmaster realm using a ten‑person formation, that power was never truly his.

He could wield Grandmaster's Power, but compared with a true Star Ancestor Master, there was still a gap.

If Su Yu wins, that's fine; but if Su Yu loses…

According to the Slay Dragon King's words, does that really mean letting Luo Ping become the Young Marshal?

The Yin Ghost King grew impatient.

The Frenzy King also transmitted his voice.

"Commander, this move is somewhat improper!"

"Luo Ping's strength cannot be compared with Bai Chen's; please, Commander, rescind the order."

However, the Slay Dragon King merely replied with a single word to the two.

"Look!"

The two exchanged a glance; though somewhat helpless, since the Slay Dragon King said so, they could only watch silently.

In the plaza, Luo Ping stepped forward, and many members of the Slay Dragon Army whispered to each other.

"This Luo Ping may be a bit foolish, but he has also broken through to the realm of the Star Ancestor Master, whereas Su Yu is only at the mid‑stage of the Flying Heaven Realm; the gap between them is rather large!"

"Isn't that right? It's not just a little large; even a peak‑level Flying Heaven Realm strongman compared to a Star Ancestor Master has a gap like a canyon."

"Let alone Su Yu, who is only at the mid‑stage of the Flying Heaven Realm."

Some white‑armored strongmen of the Slay Dragon Army began to discuss.

Those who could don white armor were all strongmen above the Grandmaster level; their gazes were naturally razor‑sharp.

"However, Su Yu's victory over Bai Chen proves his strength. If I recall correctly, when he defeated Bai Chen, Bai Chen had used the power of a ten‑person formation to forcefully elevate himself to the realm of the Star Ancestor Master."

"You also said it was forced. I admit Bai Chen's talent is terrifying; if Bai Chen reached Luo Ping's age, he'd be even more terrifying than Luo Ping, but don't forget that at this moment, Luo Ping's cultivation holds a great advantage."

"It seems our Young Marshal is a bit too arrogant!"

Some people shook their heads.

They frankly thought Su Yu's actions were rather overly presumptuous.

After all, a strongman of the Flying Heaven Realm can at most be comparable to a Star Ancestor Master.

But that only applies to ordinary Star Ancestor Masters.

And Luo Ping, as a white‑armored strongman of the Slay Dragon Army, could not be just an ordinary Star Ancestor Master.

Know that every strongman of the Slay Dragon Army is a top‑tier existence within the same realm.

Not to mention, Luo Ping's talent is among the better ones in the entire Slay Dragon Army.

Above the plaza, Luo Ping's eyes held an unmistakable excitement.

He looked at Su Yu and gave a slight smile.

"Young Marshal, shall I give you two moves?"

Su Yu looked at Luo Ping with a half‑smile, saying lightly, "What? Now you admit I'm the Young Marshal?"

Luo Ping shamelessly laughed and said.

"Now I'll let you satisfy your craving for the Young Marshal, and in a moment the Young Marshal position will be mine. I'm not afraid you'll later act rogue, calling me big‑over‑small. So I'll give you three moves; after the three, I'll strike again!"

Luo Ping stood confidently in place, hands clasped behind his back, his gaze disdainful.

It was as if Su Yu was no longer on his radar.

Su Yu's expression was oddly fixed on Luo Ping; he truly couldn't fathom where Luo Ping's confidence came from.

Sure enough, no matter where, there are always fools.

In such an important setting, still thinking of throwing the fight—it's pure courting death!

In the end Su Yu wasn't as foolish as Luo Ping; he merely smiled faintly, rubbing his fists, and said.

"Then I shall respectfully obey!"

Listening to Su Yu's voice, Luo Ping didn't take it to heart at all.

You should know, the white armor I'm wearing now is equivalent to a sixth‑grade defensive spiritual artifact; that's how the Slay Dragon Army can afford to let every expert above Grand Master realm wear sixth‑grade spiritual artifacts.

Perhaps this sixth‑grade spiritual artifact is of little use to experts at the Great Sun Grand Master or Marquis level.

But for Star Ancestor Master and Bright Moon Grand Master, it still offers considerable benefits.

Luo Ping felt clear‑headed; Su Yu's combat power is strong, but no matter how strong, he couldn't possibly break through my white armor, right?

After all, to break the defense of a sixth‑grade spiritual artifact, only a strike at full power from someone whose combat power reaches the Star Ancestor Master level can do it.

One Su Yu probably doesn't have that kind of ability!

Just as Su Yu's words fell,

Su Yu's figure moved in an instant.

The Bloodthirsty Demon Blade instantly appeared in Su Yu's hand, a faint black blade qi coiling around the blade, like that soul‑devouring demonic aura.

Boom—!!!

A rumbling sound came from the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade.

The next moment, Su Yu's low mutter rang in Luo Ping's ears.

"Fourfold... Thunder Demon Slash!"

Four terrifying blade qi gathered on the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade, continuously stacking.

Don't think it's just a simple fusion of four blade qi; its final power absolutely exceeds the sum of the four separate blade qi.

It's no longer as simple as one plus one.

Otherwise, the Ninefold Thunder Demon Slash couldn't be such a simple seventh‑grade martial technique.

After all, no martial technique forged in the Synthesis Slot is a simple commodity.

The so‑called Ninefold Thunder Demon Slash: each layer is stronger than the one before.

It's like tides—wave after wave; when cultivated to the limit, the nine layers are completely fused together and released.

Once cultivated to perfection, the Great Sun Grand Master realm is enough to be invincible!

This is the power of the Ninefold Thunder Demon Slash!

The Fourfold Thunder Demon Slash—four terrifying blade qi gathered on the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade, mixed with power enough to distort the surrounding space, erupted in an instant.

If the second layer is a doubling of power,

then the third layer is four times!

and the fourth layer reaches a terrifying eightfold!

Su Yu's combat power already stood among the invincible of the Flying Heaven Realm; with an eightfold power boost, he easily surpassed the realm's limits.

He reached the level of the Star Ancestor Master!

With a roar, the blade qi fell.

Wrapped in violent power, it fiercely slashed toward Luo Ping.

Feeling such terrifying power, Luo Ping's face changed dramatically.

He could clearly sense that within the dark blade qi lay a power surpassing the Flying Heaven Realm.

Such power is comparable to that of a Grand Master!

Although it isn't Grand Master's Power, the blade qi with an eightfold boost made him feel a shudder of fear!

"Damn it, how can his power be so terrifying!"

Luo Ping let out a low growl in his heart.

His face instantly turned grim.

He unconsciously wanted to strike back, but thinking of what he had just said, his face flushed involuntarily.

If he could do it over, he would absolutely not want to mention that sentence again.

Helpless, he could only mobilize his Grandmaster's Power within his body, turning it into a mighty torrent that surged into his white armor.

As a sixth‑grade spiritual artifact, with the aid of Grandmaster's Power, even a full‑force strike from a Star Ancestor Master could be blocked.

Boom—!!!

The blade qi fell, accompanied by a terrifying rumble, echoing across the entire square in an instant.

In a moment, dust filled the heavens and earth.

It obscured everyone's vision.

"Hiss, what terrifying power—this blade at least has the might of a Star Ancestor Master!"

A Slay Dragon Army strongman swallowed, staring in shock at the scene before him.

"Heh, drop the 'at least'—this blade definitely possesses the power of a Star Ancestor Master!"

Someone gave a dry laugh, their pupils filled entirely with horror.

They gazed at Su Yu with solemn expressions.

Before, they merely thought Su Yu's defeat of Bai Chen was due to Bai Chen's weakness, but now it seems their Young Marshal isn't as simple as they imagined.

This blade, any Flying Heaven Realm Slay Dragon Army soldier would think they couldn't withstand it!

Gradually, the dust slowly dispersed.

Revealing the scene beneath the blade qi.

All that could be seen was Luo Ping looking somewhat disheveled, his white armor actually showing several ferocious blade marks.

Everyone who saw this scene couldn't help but shrink their pupils.

Although Luo Ping suffered no injury, it was entirely thanks to his white armor.

The white armor is a sixth‑grade spiritual artifact, capable of resisting a Star Ancestor Master's power, yet under Su Yu's blade it was even damaged!

What terrifying power!

For a moment, many people's gazes toward Su Yu all changed.
