"That's right, I'm from the Tianlong Alliance... Today is your death day..." the youth said proudly, looking at Zhang Hao.
"I want to know, why wasn't I allowed to choose my opponent? And how did you become my opponent?" Zhang Hao asked, looking at the youth before him in confusion.
"Hahaha... Since you're about to die, I'll let you die enlightened. The Martial God Tower is no longer a free challenge mode, but a life-and-death battle mode. This time, you must kill us. Only by entering the heavenly ranking can you leave the Martial God Tower. Tsk tsk, so despair..."
Before the youth could finish speaking, Zhang Hao shot forward like an arrow. He threw a punch.
"Boom!"
Before the youth could finish his words, Zhang Hao punched his head open, shattering his skull.
"Ding dong! Congratulations Player Zhang Hao for killing Liao Kai, experience points 30000, True Qi 3000, Frenzy Energy 10."
Zhang Hao said lightly, "Is it interesting to babble on and on?"
Although the challenge mode had been changed to a life-and-death battle mode, and he had to clear it all the way, Zhang Hao didn't feel nervous at all; instead, he was very excited. He naturally knew this was the Tianlong Alliance's doing. Zhang Hao murmured to himself.
The students watching outside the tower were slightly surprised to see the first layer of the tower extinguished. Some students who knew the inside story naturally understood that the extinguishing of the first layer meant the people on the first layer had been killed.
Soon, the second layer of the tower was also extinguished.
"Wow! So fast! Could this Zhang Hao really clear the Man Rankings?" some students cried out in surprise.
"Are you an idiot! How is that possible? At the beginning, they are just small fries; the real geniuses are still behind!" Another burly youth shook his head.
Half an hour later, Zhang Hao continuously swept through and eliminated them. Twenty youths from the Man Rankings. These twenty youths from the Man Rankings were all members of the Tianlong Alliance. Since the other party wanted to kill him, Zhang Hao would not show mercy.
The twenty-first guardian was a tall girl. Even by Zhang Hao's aesthetic standards, he had to admit that the other party was a beauty.
However, seeing that the other party did not have the Tianlong Alliance's emblem on her, Zhang Hao smiled and said, "You're not from the Tianlong Alliance?"
"Does it make a difference?" The beauty slightly furrowed her exquisite brows.
"Of course there is a difference. This way I can show mercy, otherwise, I might have to cruelly destroy a flower." Zhang Hao smiled.
"As expected, you're arrogant. Do you think you've got me cornered? Watch how I defeat you."
The tall girl shook the long sword in her hand and stabbed towards Zhang Hao from the air. Sword Qi crisscrossed, stabbing towards Zhang Hao's body. Several streams of Sword Qi sealed off all of Zhang Hao's retreat paths.
"Divine Travel!"
Zhang Hao stepped with profound footwork. Although the tall girl's attacks were fierce, they were always ineffective. It was as if the person before her was not a person, but ephemeral wind.
"Beauty, your sword is too slow. Didn't you eat enough today?"
"Beauty, your sword is too low, it should be a bit higher!"
"Beauty, your speed is too slow, it should be a bit faster..."
The tall beauty was so angry she felt like she was going to spit blood. How could this person be such a chatterbox, rambling on and on, like a fly? Even if she wasn't beaten to death, she would be angered to death by him.
Suddenly, the tall beauty stopped the sword in her hand and said to Zhang Hao, "I'm not fighting anymore, I'm not fighting anymore, I surrender."
Zhang Hao looked at the tall beauty and asked with some surprise, "You're just not fighting anymore?"
"Of course, I can't beat you anyway!" The tall beauty snorted and said unhappily.
Outside the Martial God Tower, a crowd of onlookers, the students, let out a burst of excited sounds after seeing the twenty-first layer of the Martial God Tower dim. However, most people were unhappy, because the vast majority of people in the Inner Courtyard were also from the Tianlong Alliance, and the grievances between the Tianlong Alliance and Zhang Hao had long been widely spread.
"Strange, why did the twenty-first layer just dim and not get extinguished?" Ning Xue said.
Liu Jie explained, "This is normal. The reason it dimmed instead of being extinguished is because Zhang Hao didn't kill the opponent. Only by killing the opponent will that layer be completely extinguished."
Zhang Hao killed his way up from the Man Rankings. Finally, he reached the first floor of the first layer.
The opponent on this layer was a Dao Ba Qing Nian holding a saber. This youth exuded terrifying Killing Intent, his gaze sharp as a blade.
"It's good luck that you were able to reach here, but your luck ends now," the youth said.
This youth was precisely the number one expert on the Man Rankings, Duan Qizhi, Duan Wudi's clan brother.
"Are you done with your nonsense? If you are, come and die!" Zhang Hao sneered.
"You're courting death!"
Duan Qizhi darted forward like an arrow. He slashed his saber down towards Zhang Hao's body.
"Furious Blade Slash!"
Seventeen saber shadows, carrying terrifying Killing Intent, slashed down fiercely towards Zhang Hao's body.
"Not bad!"
Zhang Hao stood with his hands behind his back. A cold sneer formed at the corner of his mouth.
"Luo Han Fist!"
The Luo Han Fist surged down towards Duan Qizhi like a tide, instantly annihilating all of Duan Qizhi's saber shadows.
"Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!"
Zhang Hao's fists heavily hammered down on Duan Qizhi's saber body.
Duan Qizhi felt a numbness in the web of his hand. The saber in his hand was almost about to fly out.
"Be extinguished for me!"
Zhang Hao roared loudly, and his fists struck upwards. His domineering punch directly shook open Duan Qizhi's long saber, and his fists went straight through, smashing onto Duan Qizhi's body.
This punch carried the force of tens of thousands of catties.
With a "bang!"
Duan Qizhi let out a miserable shriek. His entire body flew backward. Zhang Hao followed like a shadow, chasing after him, and his second punch powerfully smashed down.
This punch was without any fancy moves, yet it was fast and swift. The powerful fist momentum locked onto Duan Qizhi's body.
With a "boom!"
This punch directly slammed onto Duan Qizhi's body.
Duan Qizhi shrieked miserably, and his entire body flew backward like a kite with a broken string. His sternum was forcefully shattered. A bloody hole appeared on his chest. Fresh blood gushed out like a spring.
Zhang Hao walked up to Duan Qizhi, looked at him, and said coldly, "Do you have any last words?"
"If you dare to kill me, my Brother won't let you off!" Duan Qizhi shrieked madly.
Zhang Hao said lightly to Duan Qizhi, "These are your last words. I have to say, your last words are very idiotic. Go die!"
Zhang Hao stomped down fiercely with one foot, crushing Duan Qizhi's head like a watermelon.
"Ding dong, congratulations Player Zhang Hao for killing Duan Qizhi, experience points 50000, True Qi 5000, Frenzy Energy 10."
The onlookers, the students, who were closely watching the movements outside the tower, suddenly saw the Martial God Tower flash again, and they were all very excited.
Liu Jie, Ning Xue, and Ye Yunshang were all very nervous. They didn't know what the outcome was at this moment, so they were naturally very tense.
