Chapter 637: Completion

Although he injured Lu Hu as soon as he moved, Baolong did not launch a preemptive attack. With a whoosh of his staff, he stepped back smoothly, holding Po Tian Yin in his other hand. His steady gaze fixed intently on these master martial artists! Baolong knew he couldn’t let them suffer serious injuries—minor wounds would only stimulate and unleash their potential. The situation hadn’t improved much despite the slight advantage he’d gained earlier.
“…”
Lu Hu took a deep breath.
In their recent clash, Baolong had truly shown the power of a Grade 4 magic weapon, allowing Lu Hu to witness its true lethality. Po Tian Yin was originally a long, heavy weapon, about three meters long and extremely formidable. Approaching with martial arts techniques meant facing one or two rounds of attacks even before getting close. What made things worse was that Baolong’s weapon emitted sound blades that stretched several meters long as it was swung, acting like blades of steel and greatly enhancing its lethality and threat at a distance.
The frown on Lu Hu’s face deepened rapidly!
For the first time, he felt pressure and hesitation in front of Baolong…
Of course!
That wouldn’t stop him from moving forward. His gaze swept over Po Tian Yin once more, then he roared and charged forward, taking big steps without hesitation.
Thud! Thud!
The deep pits stretched toward Baolong with each step Lu Hu took, his ferocious aura surging like that of a wild beast, just like a tiger descending the mountain…
Baolong remained calm. He stepped back firmly in a fan-shaped arc with his right foot.
Whoosh!!!
Po Tian Yin quickly formed a huge “X” in the air. The howling sound blades, combined with the subsequent staff strikes, slammed into Lu Hu’s reckless and relentless figure.
Hiss! Hiss!!!
Two bloody wounds appeared on Lu Hu’s body. His eyes remained unblinking… But the successive staff strikes overwhelmed him like an unstoppable force. The immense weight of those strikes, unlike the sound blades, tore through the air, forcing Lu Hu to raise his arms.
Boom!
His entire body trembled as he gritted his teeth to withstand Baolong’s full-force attack. With a furious roar and a bite of his white teeth, an even more ferocious aura emerged from him. In his anger, he accelerated his charge and miraculously broke through the swirling staff shadows… launching a counterattack at Baolong!
But what he didn’t expect was…
Baolong was more cautious and steady than he had imagined. After delivering the staff strike, he didn’t consider pursuing further. He withdrew without hesitation, ruining Lu Hu’s plan to endure all the strikes and get closer. His injuries then became meaningless.

Breaking free from the shadows of the staff, Lu Hu saw the Tyrannosaurus holding the staff upside down, standing firm ten meters away as if unmoved. His heart sank instantly.
But now it was too late to back down…
“Die!!”
A guttural roar, like that of a wounded beast, filled Lu Hu with renewed fury. Like an arrow released from a bow, he rushed at the Tyrannosaurus under the momentum of his earlier attack.
The Tyrannosaurus focused intently and this time avoided a prolonged battle. With a quick step, it retreated while sweeping its staff in rapid arcs…
Whoosh! Whoosh!!
Visible shockwaves rippled through the air, hiding several sharp sonic blades within.
Lu Hu was too fast to dodge. Under full speed, he cried out in pain. Soon, his skin was torn and blood flowed freely, yet the Tyrannosaurus kept moving back, unleashing attacks as long as Lu Hu pursued.
One chased, the other retreated…
Lu Hu’s advantage in close combat was completely useless; instead, the Tyrannosaurus, despite being in a passive position, exploited Lu Hu’s eagerness to get close, fully utilizing the advantages of its long, heavy weapon to inflict wounds without any damage to itself.
After repeated attacks, Lu Hu’s strength finally ran out! The potential stimulated by pain gradually faded, his speed slowed down, and his increasingly heavy and weak body struggled more and more to resist the Tyrannosaurus’s assaults.
“…”
Abu and the others looked extremely grim.
They could see that Lu Hu was running out of tricks. His strategy of feigning weakness not only failed to provoke the Tyrannosaurus into rashness but also cost him dearly. The Tyrannosaurus was too calm, seeing through Lu Hu’s tactics completely. It not only denied him any chance to get close but also seemed to have studied Lu Hu thoroughly, blocking every move and change, sealing off Lu Hu’s options in a passive situation.
Suppression!
The Tyrannosaurus achieved a “complete victory,” a rare sight in the world of martial arts, without suffering any damage.
“…”
Previously, Lu Hu’s proud Muay Thai skills were useless against the Tyrannosaurus’s steady staff techniques.
“He’s quite a promising talent.”
Even Silver Fox couldn’t help but praise the Tyrannosaurus’s performance.
Silver Fox also knew something about Lu Hu’s strength. He realized that even if he intervened personally, a fistfight might not give him much of an advantage, leading to a fierce battle. Only after hundreds of exchanges might he gain the upper hand thanks to the mysteries of the “Red Flame Palm.”

Compared to himself, Lu Hu lacked experience and skill, but he cleverly leveraged the advantages of his weapons to further enhance the strengths of his heavy arms. Moreover, he clearly had a deep understanding of Lu Hu and fully grasped his tactics. Under such circumstances, if Lu Hu could adopt a cautious approach, he might still have a chance to win or draw! Unfortunately… His fierce desire for victory was seen through by Baolong. Once his psychology was controlled, he was completely led by Baolong’s will… As time passed, Lu Hu’s momentum gradually faded, and he no longer possessed his earlier strength. Covered in blood, gasping for breath, and his moves losing their former sharpness, Lu Hu finally realized the situation was dire. He slowly restored his internal energy by using his mental techniques while shifting from an offensive stance to a defensive one. Sensing the change in Lu Hu’s energy, Baolong felt a sense of relief. The pressure was gone! Baolong immediately realized that Lu Hu had lost his original advantages and was now at his weakest since the beginning… Whoosh! With his long staff piercing the sky, he moved as if a black dragon soaring from the abyss. Amidst the shrill and majestic howl of his staff, his aura changed dramatically. “Brave and resourceful, with a clear understanding of the situation, decisive in battle—he is the perfect candidate for the Leader of Tianmo Fen Tan.” At the moment Baolong’s aura changed, he firmly decided in his heart who would be the Leader of Tianmo Fen Tan. Sure enough! Seizing the opportunity to launch a fierce attack, the advantages of his heavy weapons became even more evident in the assault. With shadows from his staff flickering, Lu Hu’s inferior equipment became completely exposed… After being battered by Lu Hu earlier, his protective defenses were already weak. Now, after this series of attacks, Lu Hu had lost his fighting spirit and could no longer change his situation of being overwhelmed. He retreated step by step, soon covered in bruises and blood, looking utterly miserable. But compared to the pain in his heart, these physical injuries were nothing. The thought that this man, who had once been one of his subordinates and a defeated general, now found himself in the role of being defeated by one of his former subordinates filled him with bitter disappointment. Especially since he hadn’t even had a chance to unleash half of his strength, the battle was already decided. “Pfft!” With a heavy strike to his back, the blood trapped in Lu Hu’s heart finally gushed out violently. His vision went black, and he was flung several feet into the air. Bang! His body crashed heavily to the ground. With Lu Hu’s defeat, Abu and the others also felt as if their hearts had sunk to rock bottom.

This trip to the Central Plains martial world was mainly to gain both fame and wealth from the Mu family. Who would have thought that after three battles, they suffered three consecutive defeats! They were utterly speechless from shame!
In the first battle, seven of the Mu family’s disciples were defeated by a single archer!
In the second, their eldest disciple was slain by a nameless disciple from the Miao Shou Gate with a single sword strike!
Now, even the second-strongest fighter in their team, “Lu Hu”, was left helpless against his defeated opponents!
From start to finish, the Mu family’s true top experts never showed up.
Ironic!
For Abu, this was the greatest irony inflicted upon him by the Central Plains martial world.
