Chapter 47

That night, Eder was thrown back into the large prison, replaced by the young Master Las.

This person was no ordinary figure. Students kept contacting Lu Yin, offering to pay a price to exchange for him, but Lu Yin refused them all. The value of this young Master Las was far beyond what those resource crystals could offer.

Las was roughly thrown to the ground, not far from where the Hua Camp Evolvers were building defensive walls.

"Kules, why are you here too?" Las exclaimed in surprise, looking at the woman not far away.

Kules smiled sweetly at Las, "Sorry, Senior Las, I was captured too."

Las was furious. You little wench, lying through your teeth. Does this look like being captured? Wait a moment, "Are you the one behind this group? No wonder they dared to kidnap me. You have a lot of nerve. Don't think that just because your brother protects you, you're safe. My father is Sika."

Kules blinked her innocent eyes, "Senior Las, don't wrong me. I don't have the ability to lead them. If you don't believe me, ask others. I was also robbed by him."

Las didn't believe it at all. He didn't believe that mere natives would dare to act against him. Although the native's strength was unexpectedly strong, so what? Without a certain background, even the best talent is just an ant.

"Another student is approaching," Granie exclaimed.

Lu Yin and the others all looked into the distance. A figure quickly approached, eventually hovering above the capital city, looking down at Lu Yin and the others.

Seeing the person, Las was overjoyed, "Senior Mono, it's Senior Mono. Senior, I'm here."

Kules's face changed, "Why is it him? He actually came too."

Lu Yin was curious, "Do you know him?"

Kules replied solemnly, "Mono, an elite of the Yutang, once competed with my brother. Although he is no longer a match for my brother now, he is one of the few Fusion Realm students in Yutang."

Hearing "Fusion Realm," everyone's hearts sank. There were definitely Fusion Realm experts among the second batch of trial students. Huo Xiaoling was one, and originally, everyone thought it would be hard to encounter Fusion Realm experts, but they unexpectedly appeared here.

Mono looked down at the capital city, spotting Las. His eyes lit up. His purpose was to save Las. Las's father was Sika. As long as he saved Las, he could board Sika's ship, and his future in the Great Yutang Empire would be secure.

"Native, release Young Master Las," Mono shouted, a wave of energy dispersing the clouds and pressing down, causing countless survivors to fear.

Las was overjoyed.

Lu Yin frowned, about to act. So what if it's a Fusion Realm? A Fusion Realm with sealed cultivation might not be a match for him.

At this moment, Zhang Ding Tian stepped forward, his gaze calm, "This one, I'll handle it."

Lu Yin's eyes flashed. Since he saved everyone a few days ago, Zhang Ding Tian had rarely acted. All the students who came were defeated and captured by Lu Yin. Granie, Kules, and others were all focused on Lu Yin, and even Eder and the others almost forgot about Zhang Ding Tian. He was a cross-realm expert, the first of the Seven Saints. He had his pride. The capital city was originally his to protect, but he had been protected by others. Zhang Ding Tian had endured for a long time, and now, with his injuries recovered, he was eager for a battle.

Bai Xue looked at Zhang Ding Tian with concern. These alien students had bizarre combat techniques, and their use of power far exceeded their own. Ordinary students could be crushed by Zhang Ding Tian, but now he was facing a top expert.

Las sneered. If it were Lu Yin, it would be interesting, but a mere native challenging a Fusion Realm expert? Even if the Fusion Realm expert's cultivation was sealed, it was still far beyond an ordinary Exploration Realm. Just a native.

Lu Yin nodded, "Be careful."

Zhang Ding Tian's gaze hardened. He raised his long sword and soared into the air, facing Mono.

Kules's eyes lit up. Las and the others didn't know, but the first batch of trial students did. The greatest threat from Huaxia wasn't Lu Yin, but this first of the Seven Saints, a rare cross-realm expert. One man, one sword, guarding the capital city, even she had to retreat from his sharp edge.

Mono looked at the soaring Zhang Ding Tian with arrogance, "Native, get out of the way." As he spoke, he casually waved his hand, a surge of star energy sweeping across. Unlike ordinary Exploration Realm cultivators whose power was scattered, his was concentrated in one direction, a subconscious control, showing that Fusion Realm experts were already adept at using star energy.

Zhang Ding Tian's gaze was resolute. He raised his sword and slashed horizontally, the slash tearing through the star energy and directly heading towards Mono.

Mono, who had originally not taken Zhang Ding Tian seriously, changed his expression. He raised his hand, a claw extending to shatter the slash. "Interesting, a mere native actually has the strength comparable to an ordinary Yutang member. No, slightly above an ordinary Yutang member. You, a cross-realm expert?"

Faced with Mono's increasingly surprised expression, Zhang Ding Tian raised his sword and slashed again, but it was shattered by Mono. Zhang Ding Tian had cross-realm combat power, stronger than Eder, enough to match Las, but against Mono, a Fusion Realm expert with sealed cultivation, his attacks were ineffective. Mono was a true Fusion Realm expert. Even with his cultivation sealed, his use of star energy and combat techniques remained, far beyond Zhang Ding Tian's capabilities.

With a bang, Mono's palm turned into a claw, striking the sword blade, creating a crack. The force spread along the sword to Zhang Ding Tian's arm, shattering the sleeve on his arm.

Mono had originally intended to shatter the sword, but failed. At a critical moment, Zhang Ding Tian miraculously deflected part of the force, preserving the sword and avoiding more serious injuries.

Zhang Ding Tian spat out a mouthful of blood and retreated, raising his sword high. With a roar, a terrifying slash emerged, his body mysteriously disappearing, leaving only an afterimage.

"Youshen Step?" Lu Yin was surprised. Zhang Ding Tian had actually learned the Youshen Step.

Everyone stared at the sky in shock. Two Zhang Ding Tians?

Las's mouth dropped open. No way, a native was actually fighting Mono on equal terms. Mono had even used the Heavenly Beast Claw and failed to defeat him. How could this be? When did natives become so crazy? A cross-realm expert? A native planet actually had a cross-realm expert.

In the sky, Mono's eyes turned cold. He waved his hand, dispersing the afterimage, and kicked out, a violent gust of wind distorting the air. The aftereffects shattered the ground. At this moment, Zhang Ding Tian appeared beside Mono, slashing with his sword, striking Mono in front of everyone's eyes.

Everyone's hearts raced, watching in shock. This was cross-realm combat power, capable of resisting Mono. This Zhang Ding Tian was truly defying the heavens.

The sword passed through, but there was no sensation. Zhang Ding Tian's pupils contracted as the figure of Mono before him dissipated. Instinctively, he raised his sword to block behind him. With a bang, the sword shattered, and a terrifying force struck Zhang Ding Tian, slamming him into the ground.

Everyone was silent. In the sky, Mono appeared, his face dark. A mere native had not only forced him to use the Heavenly Beast Claw but also his step combat technique. Unbelievable.

Everyone looked at the ground outside the city, where dust rose to the sky.

Kules exhaled. This was right. If this native had defeated Mono, it would have been a complete颠覆 of their worldview. No matter what, a native couldn't defy the heavens, right?

"It's your turn," Kules said to Lu Yin.

Lu Yin pointed outside the city, "It's not over yet."

"Do you want him to die? A native can't defeat Mono, not even injure him," Kules said.

Lu Yin narrowed his eyes, "I really don't like the word 'native'."

"Hmph," Kules turned away.

Zhou Shan and Wu Sheng also appeared, looking at the city outskirts with concern.

Bai Xue clenched her fists, a chilling aura emanating from her body.

Las stared at Bai Xue in a daze. He had noticed this woman earlier. She was truly beautiful. He had originally planned to take her as a servant, but what was this? Cold aura? Ice? Talent? Damn, what kind of native planet was this, with talent cultivators and cross-realm experts, plus the freak who defeated him. What the hell?

At this moment, the dust cleared, revealing Zhang Ding Tian, holding a broken sword, covered in wounds, but standing firm, looking up at the sky, slowly rising.

Mono raised an eyebrow, "You have spirit. What's your name?"

"Zhang Ding Tian."

Mono praised, "Follow me, and I'll bring you into the Yutang. You have the qualifications. How about it?"

"Not interested," Zhang Ding Tian coldly replied, gripping the broken sword.

Mono laughed, "Do you really think you can fight me with this broken sword? Let me tell you, the gap between us is insurmountable. Against me, you can only fail."

"Not necessarily. Zhang Ding Tian, I have something for you," Lu Yin shouted from below, throwing Kules's ring armor to him. Zhang Ding Tian caught it instinctively, looking at Lu Yin in confusion.

Lu Yin said, "The fight wasn't fair. He's a Fusion Realm, you're an Exploration Realm. Don't be stubborn."

Zhang Ding Tian's eyes flashed. He put on the ring armor, and in the next moment, the armor covered his entire body, shimmering with lightning.
