Chapter 333: Fierce Battle for the Golden Core

Yan Buji looked at the newcomer and found that he was a Golden Core stage Dragon Person.

Seeing his unkempt appearance as he stepped out of the crowd, he stared at Yan Buji oddly: "You, a newcomer who hasn't fully transformed yet, how dare you swagger here?!"

Wang Chao walked over and stood beside Yan Buji: "Wang Man, why are you also here?"

"Tch, aren't you just making a racket and disturbing my sleep? This newly arrived kid looks cocky—what, you want to protect him? Aren't you the ones who go hunting every day and share the spoils? You really think you're the saviors of the Dragon People, demanding us to obey just because you give us food?"

"I never thought that…." Wang Chao hadn't finished when Yan Buji reached out beside him.

Yan Buji inhaled deeply: "So, you're stepping up for this bunch of trash, huh?"

"Huh?" Wang Man looked at Yan Buji in surprise: "What do you mean?"

The surrounding Dragon People, indignant, shouted: "Who do you think you are to talk to our Brother Wang Man like that?!"

"Exactly, Brother Wang Man, go for him!"

Yan Buji reached out: "No need for idle talk, I don't need Wang Chao's help today. Come, let's spar and see true skill!" He then gave a cold smile: "Don't tell me you lack courage; the guy who defends trash—I'm a Foundation Establishment Stage."

Wang Man's face darkened: "You're courting death?!"

"If you have guts, come. Don't be like those trash who hide in the crowd and whine."

"Brother Wang Man, attack him!"

"Who called anyone a dog?! Brother Wang Man, go for him!!"

Yan Buji stepped outside, and a squad member beside him looked at him, then at Wang Chao: "Brother Chao, really don't step in to help him."

"That's his will… Since he dares to challenge Wang Man, it shows he also has strength."

"Even with strength, you can't cross a great realm, can you?"

Wang Chao fell silent; he knew Yan Buji acted to intimidate the unruly crowd, but it was excessive.

Nevertheless, if real danger arose, he would definitely intervene.

Soon, Yan Buji arrived outside the Ten Thousand Dragon Palace, staring at Wang Man ahead.

Wang Man scratched his vest and asked: "How dare you?"

"Those who keep company with trash, even if their realm is higher than mine, I don't think they have any prospects."

"Whoa, you're different from Wang Chao. But…."

Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, Wang Man suddenly appeared before Yan Buji, empowered by an ultra‑fast evasion technique Yan Buji had never seen; Yan Buji was startled and immediately exerted his full strength!

Bang!

Yan Buji was knocked back dozens of meters, and Wang Man was somewhat surprised.

Seeing Yan Buji's spirit shield and murderous aura armor shattered, yet the presence of accumulated armor and post‑natal vigor still shocked him: "Martial and Law Dual Cultivation?"

"Is this your whole strength?"

"I was just greeting you, and you already used all your power?"

"Is that so? Then who told you this is my entire strength?!"

A sudden burst!

Within Yan Buji's Martial Dao Profound Skill, this posture can massively boost his power, more suitable for a real duel than the obvious kingly stance!

At the same time, Yan Buji activated the Heavenly Gate Five‑Elements Technique, summoned the Magic Power Golden Wheel to shield his body, and spewed a burst of primordial earth fire!

He again invoked the Zhenjiao Disk, summoning several Earth Vein serpents and earth golem statues, granting him Earth Vein Power!

In an instant, Yan Buji's tactics kept coming, causing Wang Man's complexion to darken.

"How troublesome, there are still people at this level of Martial and Law Dual Cultivation these days?"

The Dragon People beside them were shocked.

Martial and Law Dual Cultivation, also reaching Foundation Establishment?

No wonder he dared to spar with Golden Core stage Wang Man; he really had confidence.

"Even so, the gap of a great realm can't be evened out, right? Wang Man isn't weak either; back then he was also...." the squad member said.

Wang Chao observed carefully for a while, then said: "Yan Buji… his magical power far exceeds early Foundation Establishment, almost at mid‑Foundation, nearing late‑Foundation level, and his Martial Dao True Origin is also strong, directly crossing a minor realm…."

Judging from both sides' aura, Wang Chao had previously sparred with Wang Man and knew Wang Man's strength.

But now, the power Yan Buji unleashed was no less than Wang Man's, and his myriad tactics made him a hard opponent.

Seeing this, Wang Man again activated his evasion technique, summoned two water dragons along with earth golem statues and earth serpents to restrain, and charged forward alone.

"Kid, you truly have the right to spar with me!"

Yan Buji felt a surge of resentment, perfect for unleashing it in this battle.

"Then bring it on!"

In a blink, Yan Buji also activated a speed‑enhancing secret technique, using a flash of lightning combined with wind to charge forward; though slightly slower, with Instant Shadow Step he and his opponent became two streaks of light battling outside the Ten Thousand Dragon Palace.

Once engaged, Yan Buji realized the other's close‑combat skill was not inferior to his. Moreover, the dragon scale armor and dragon claws, one for attack and one for defense, made his combat power astonishing.

But Yan Buji, being a half‑dragon transformed Dragon Person and protected by accumulated armor, wasn't afraid to clash head‑on.

Both sides exchanged hundreds of rounds, and Wang Man was secretly shocked.

"This kid's True Essence and magical power seem endless; we can't stall any longer!"

Wang Man knew his own strength, but after fighting this long without the opponent showing fatigue, it showed that such explosive power wasn't short‑term.

Given that, dragging this out any further is meaningless.

Bang!

Both sides slammed a punch; Wang Man widened his stance, watching his wooden dragon on the other side being torn apart by earth golem statues and earth serpents, gritting his teeth.

"Kid, I admit you're impressive!"

"No need for your acknowledgment; if you can't beat me, you simply can't." Yan Buji sneered.

"Too arrogant, I must teach you a lesson today! You really think my Golden Core stage came from just sleeping?!"

Wang Man gritted his teeth, and suddenly a terrifying aura erupted from his whole body, blue scales quickly covering his entire body, while at the same time his physique suddenly expanded by a third, exuding a bloodthirsty killing intent like a giant beast.

Wang Chao, standing nearby, was startled and shouted, "Wang Man!"

"Wang Chao, don't interfere! If you come over again, I'll beat you too!"

Wang Chao said in a deep voice, "Are you serious?"

"... Anyway, don't worry about me, this kid is so arrogant, I just don't believe I can't beat him!!"

Wang Man paused for a moment, then let out an angry roar!

Only to see a massive blood qi drift out from his scale armor, and in an instant he activated an evasion technique, rushing to Yan Buji!

A large amount of blood qi turned into pure blood essence, and extremely concentrated power condensed onto Wang Man's giant fist!

Seeing this, Yan Buji pulled back the steering, and the True Essence within his body was completely integrated at this moment, gathering into his right fist!

Qi Tight Secret Technique!

Immediately, Yan Buji condensed a lightning spear in his left hand and threw it at Wang Man, who was briefly bound by the Qi Tight Secret Technique.

Boom!

This time, Wang Man didn't expect it, so he could only throw out a punch in advance, directly shattering Yan Buji's Qi Tight Lightning Spear combo, and without caring about the explosion wounds on his body, he threw a punch that reached Yan Buji's face.

"True Flow Fist!"

Rumble!

With a tremendous roar, the vicinity of the Myriad Dragon Palace trembled for a moment!

Wang Chao was about to intervene, but he also didn't expect things to go beyond his expectations—Wang Man was actually forced by Yan Buji to use a killing move?!

"You guys..."

Wang Chao rushed in, watching the two exchange fists. At this moment, Yan Buji retreated several meters, and the True Essence fluid that burst forth was now stronger than before, almost forming a torrent that shattered Wang Man's killing move and engulfed it.

"Ugh..."

Wang Man had lost most of his strength as his scales fell off half of his body, and Yan Buji also finally cleared the pent-up frustration in his heart; if not for that, his burst degree would not have exerted power beyond the original increase.

It was also impossible to throw a punch stronger than Yan Buji's previous strongest strike!

Sure enough, the greater the anger, the stronger the burst degree!

Wang Man's scales all over his body dissipated on their own, his whole body seemed like massive bleeding as his muscles twitched for a moment and then went limp, finally collapsing in a pool of blood, life or death unknown.

Yan Buji retracted his fist and gripped his trembling left hand.

Refreshing!

Yan Buji, satisfied, collapsed to the ground, and again fainted due to the depletion of his magical True Essence.
