Chapter 28: The Whole Nation Trembles

Su Han slowly retracted his fist, letting out a slight breath. Armament Haki rapidly withdrew.

"That last strike probably consumed about half of my physical strength!"

Su Han carefully calculated, then nodded slightly with a touch of satisfaction.

These days of training had indeed borne fruit. After integrating All Might's martial arts essence, his control over his own body had undoubtedly improved greatly.

If he hadn't fused All Might's martial arts essence before throwing that punch, it wouldn't have been surprising if he'd drained all his stamina completely.

Even if he had exhausted every ounce of stamina, he might still not have achieved the force behind that punch.

Altering the weather—he himself was shocked by the destructive power of that blow.

His Observation Haki spread outward, Su Han's brows slightly raised, eyes flickering as he turned his head toward a certain spot, voice low and slightly hoarse.

"How long do you plan to hide there?"

Su Han flexed his fist, expressionless. "Or do I need to come and get you out?"

Just as the viewers were puzzled, ripples suddenly appeared in midair.

Finally, a man appearing to be in his fifties materialized in the air, wearing an awkward smile and raising both hands.

"If I said this was a misunderstanding, would you believe me?"

The man spoke cautiously, eyes locked onto Su Han—should Su Han even think about throwing a punch, he'd turn and run without saying another word.

Countless people watching the livestream instantly recognized the man's identity.

"Holy crap! Isn't this Master Han Li from Haining City?"

"Damn! Master Han Li once proclaimed 'a master cannot be humiliated'! I still remember that video—it got me so fired up... Why does Master Han Li suddenly seem so much less impressive this time we see him?"

"Who cares about 'a master cannot be humiliated'? A master indeed shouldn't be humiliated, but you also have to consider who you're facing. Clearly, Master Han Li can't beat this person shrouded in black mist! In this situation, can he really act arrogant?"

"Big bro, big bro! Can't afford it, can't afford it."

Taking a slight breath, Han Li stared intently at Su Han.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be the one who recently shattered the Langya Mountain Range?"

Master Han Li raised his hand to signal he meant no harm, cautiously approaching Su Han.

Seeing this, Su Han slightly narrowed his eyes.

Master Han Li's body instantly stiffened, halting his advance toward Su Han, his face once again showing an awkward yet polite smile.

"So it was me—what of it?"

Outwardly calm, Su Han inwardly understood: indeed, that punch he threw earlier had caused quite a stir. Fortunately, he'd fled quickly.

Of course, that was then. Now, Su Han wasn't the least bit nervous.

Though his sustained combat ability wasn't strong, there was no helping it—his short-term burst power was simply too overwhelming. Even a master-level expert would need to prepare a coffin after taking one punch.

"May I ask if you're interested in joining the Masters' Association? If you join and become an officially registered master under Huaxia, you'll enjoy many preferential benefits!"

"No interest," Su Han replied indifferently. "I only hope such situations won't happen again."

In the next moment, Su Han's figure vanished without a trace.

Master Han Li's pupils shrank sharply, revealing disbelief. He lowered his hands, stepped forward, and directly appeared at the spot where Su Han had just stood, looking around. The more he saw, the more incredulous his expression became.

"He moved too fast for me to catch... impossible!"

Master Han Li was confident that even a grand master trying to escape—he might not keep up with their speed, but at least his eyes could track their silhouette.

But this time, he hadn't seen how the other person left at all.

"Could he... possibly be a grand master-level existence? Even an ordinary grand master couldn't move this fast."

Just thinking about it made Han Li feel dizzy.

There were only two or three grand masters officially registered by Huaxia. They were true titans, the pillars of Huaxia.

Had he known the other was a grand master-level expert, Han Li would have knelt and begged him to join the Huaxia Masters' Association.

"Aside from this terrifying expert being a grand master-level powerhouse, another explanation is that this expert possesses instantaneous movement technique."

Master Han Li fell silent. Instantaneous movement? Could it really be possible?

He turned his gaze to the three young girls lying on the ground, his eyes flickering.

In theory, a master's strength lay solely in powerful vital energy, unrelated to anything else. Yet after witnessing the elemental powers displayed by these three girls, Han Li began to wonder whether there might be something else in this world unknown even to masters like himself.

If such hidden forces truly existed...

Then even the possibility of that supreme expert mastering instantaneous movement wouldn't be entirely unthinkable.

Thinking thus, Han Li stepped forward, appearing directly before Zhao Linger and the others, wearing a friendly smile, his voice gentle yet firm.

"Three of you, come with me, please?"

Su Han used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to his own room.

Stretching lazily, Su Han lay back in his chair.

Overall, Su Han was very satisfied with the results of this test. The only thing slightly regrettable was that his endurance remained low.

"I still need to train my body! Push to increase my physical stamina limit."

Su Han sighed, then opened his computer and casually browsed through it. His expression froze instantly.

He was browsing Tianhe Weibo, which had completely crashed. Only the top three trending headlines were visible.

"Unknown Grand Master Appears in Jianghai City?"

"Instantaneous Movement? Elemental Power? What Exactly Is Hidden in This World?"

"Top-Tier Ferocious Beast, the Sara Snake, Appears in the City Center!!!"

Su Han was stunned. How long had he been back? And already the热度was this high? High enough to crash Tianhe Weibo?!

That didn't make sense.

Completely unaware that the entire scene had just been live-streamed, Su Han was utterly baffled by the current level of public attention.

He exited Weibo and checked Tieba, along with several other news sites. Finally, frowning, he wore a contemplative look.

"It seems... the commotion I caused this time is bigger than I imagined."
