Chapter 228: Let Me Teach Itachi How to Use Black Rhino Armor

A furious man stormed over.

Without a doubt, it was Bei Sanshui, the Orange Brother—expert at internal strife, incompetent in external battles.

Upon arriving, he immediately transformed into Black Rhino Hero, charging toward Luo Jie with fierce momentum, his Meteor Spear thrusting straight forward as if to teach this villain who bullied his sister a lesson.

Luo Jie glanced at him, lips curling slightly, a hint of amusement in his eyes:

“Oh? Orange Brother wants to spar with me?”

“Perfect—I’ll finally get to test your undefeated inner-war skills.”

Before he finished speaking, Bei Miao’s Meteor Spear struck Luo Jie’s chest armor.

“Dong!”

A deafening crash echoed, like a hammer striking steel plate.

Bei Miao felt his arms go numb, his whole body recoiling backward several steps, the Meteor Spear nearly slipping from his grip.

Luo Jie stood utterly unmoved, instead looking disgusted: “Didn’t eat? Pathetic strength.”

He sheathed his Earth-Cracking Blade, stretched his wrists, stepped forward, clenched his fists, and began his armor tutorial.

“Your defense is trash.”

Luo Jie punched Bei Miao in the chest, sending him flying like a cut kite, crashing heavily to the ground.

“Your core power is garbage too.”

He kicked Bei Miao in the stomach, making him curl up like a boiled shrimp, writhing in pain.

Bei Miao was utterly powerless, crushed like a level-one newbie pinned down by a max-level boss, helplessly watching his HP drain rapidly.

Finally, Luo Jie delivered a punch that sent Bei Miao flying, smashing through three trees; his armor automatically deactivated as he lay there, spitting out two mouthfuls of blood.

Bei Miao gazed weakly at the sky, eyes filled with resentment:

“We’re both Armor Summoners… why is the power gap so huge…”

Luo Jie clapped his hands, nodding in satisfaction: “Hmm, good form. Your taking-a-beating posture is textbook—some merit after all.”

Then he walked up to Bei Miao, reached into the bag he carried, and pulled out a stone glowing with green light.

“Bro, I’ll borrow your Black Rhino Armor for a bit.”

Bei Miao tried to stop him, but he couldn’t even move, let alone speak—he could only stare helplessly as Luo Jie took it.

Luo Jie declared: “Silence means consent.”

“Heh, lucky day—I found a Water Shadow Stone nobody wanted.”

In three sentences, the Water Shadow Stone became ownerless in his mouth.

Just as Luo Jie hummed a tune, preparing to leave, he suddenly sensed something.

A few yards away, the crippled Chou Jiang was writhing on the ground, dark, eerie mist rising from his body.

The next instant, a purple-black lightning bolt struck—Chou Jiang vanished, replaced by a supernatural beast clad in armor, wielding a long sword.

Luo Jie narrowed his eyes, his mind stirring:

“Isn’t that Evil Wood Guardian?”

He frowned, muttering: “Why show up so early? Like to arrive ahead of schedule? I hate these overachievers most.”

Luo Jie had no patience—he’d crush Evil Wood first.

But before that, he equipped the Water Shadow Stone in his hand.

“Armor Fusion!”

A familiar armor fusion sound echoed.

A flash of green light—and Luo Jie transformed into Black Rhino Hero.

It wasn’t that he wanted to play with a new armor—he simply knew: to beat Evil Wood, Itachi needed Black Rhino Armor.

On the ground, Bei Miao stared, frozen, as Luo Jie transformed into Black Rhino Hero.

His eyes glazed over, lips trembling—as if witnessing the most absurd thing imaginable.

“How can Itachi use my Black Rhino Armor?”

Luo Jie turned his head, smiling: “Your armor? It’s mine.”

“Let me teach Itachi how to use Black Rhino Armor.”

Before he finished speaking, he kicked off the ground and charged straight toward Evil Wood Guardian.

Bei Miao barely managed to shout: “Go easy!”

He nearly burst into tears.

That was his most treasured armor!

Don’t drive it like a monster truck!

“Water Armor Shield!”

Luo Jie’s left hand instantly morphed into a rhino-horn-shaped shield, defense maxed out.

Evil Wood Guardian swung his sword, attempting a close-range ambush—but barely approached before being repelled by a shield bash, flung into a pile of trash bins.

Luo Jie grinned: “Trash belongs in the trash.”

Evil Wood roared and charged again.

Luo Jie didn’t dodge—he raised his shield and met the attack head-on.

“Boom!”

A thunderous crash—Luo Jie shoved the shield forward, repelling the blow again; Evil Wood flew backward like he’d been hit by a bulldozer.

“Torrent Thrust!”

Luo Jie summoned the Meteor Spear, movements fluid and seamless.

He raised the spear and thrust—it pierced Evil Wood, who let out a shriek as a green Taiji diagram instantly appeared on his back, paralyzing him.

“Torrent Upthrust!”

Luo Jie lunged low—Evil Wood Guardian was instantly sealed into a Spirit-Sealing Charm.

The battle ended. Luo Jie retracted the card, nodding in satisfaction:

“Solid execution.”

“Black Rhino Armor—definitely effective.”

At that moment, hurried footsteps approached from afar; other Armor Warriors arrived on the scene.

“Who are Itachi?”

Dong Shan, transformed into Wind Eagle Hero, asked warily.

“Unknown Armor Warrior.”

Xin Nan, transformed into Flame Dragon Hero, muttered under his brow.

Luo Jie glanced at the two, silently mocking them in his mind:

“Oh, so it’s the Wind Eagle Hero—useless, spams his big moves—and the Flame Dragon Hero, addicted to piano and useless.”

Truly, a pair of useless geniuses.

Since they had no Light-Shadow Stones, Luo Jie ignored them.

He immediately deactivated Black Rhino Armor, reverted to his original form, brushed off his pants, and walked away.

Back at his limited-edition sports car, he fastened his seatbelt, humming: “I’m the coolest Armor Warrior.”

The engine roared as the car sped away from the battlefield, leaving the two Armor Warriors stunned in the wind.

Meanwhile, Bei Miao still lay on the ground, watching the departing car, muttering to himself:

“My Black Rhino Armor!”

…

Soon, Luo Jie pulled his limited-edition sports car to a stop outside Sunshine Fuli Academy.

Luo Jie straightened his collar, eyes resolute:

“Today, I’m not just cloud-raising Xiangyang—I’m adopting him.”

Correct—he planned to bind Xiangyang’s Five Elements bloodline via the cloud-raising system while legally making him his son.

After all, this was Xiangyang—the purest descendant of the Five Elements Village.

This SSR gold card? Luo Jie wouldn’t let it slip away.

He entered the academy, wearing a benevolent smile, like a man who loved collecting sons:

“Hello, I’d like to adopt a child.”

The staff, seeing Luo Jie’s wealth and status, greeted him warmly.

After some small talk, the staff asked:

“Sir, do Itachi have any parenting experience?”

Luo Jie nodded confidently: “Of course—I’ve trained disciples, taken on apprentices. Raising a child shouldn’t be hard.”

Staff: “...”
