Since Elder Hiroshi had given Ye Lingchen the death sentence, the outcome was surely going to be extremely gruesome. He must watch it intently and not let a second go by unmonitored. He wanted to personally witness Ye Lingchen’s despair. That feeling…must be wonderful!
Second floor…
“Die!”
Those 15 creatures were horrific existences that could no longer be considered human. After 10 full seconds of them gathering strength, their destructive power was maxed out.
As they charged, they were emitting bloodthirsty roars and shrieks. The sight of it was both horrifying and gory.
At that moment, the air around them seemed to have solidified. Wave after wave of killing intent spewed forth from their bodies. Moreover, the killing intent was mixed with rage and ferocity. With 15 of them added together, the killing intent was extremely oppressive and had seemingly taken physical form, making it difficult to breathe.
That feeling was as though someone was surrounded by 15 ferocious tigers and have them lunge for the kill at the same time. It was difficult to even put up a fight!
It did not end there. These 15 people who had their strength and speed enhanced were subconsciously using the martial arts that they had learned before. Gleaming blades flashed about!
Those five that came down from the third floor were especially outstanding. Their wrists flicked about as the blade of their swords cut through the air, their sword intent firing every which way.
Terrifying flashes of gleaming cold steel cut through the air with ringing sounds.
They had all raised their strength to their absolute peak.
Regardless of their blades or claws, their sharpness was unrivaled and was threatening to cut through mountains.
At that moment, all the attacks were locked onto the artery on Ye Lingchen’s neck, between his eyes, chest, and other vital regions.
Ye Lingchen was completely surrounded without a slightest opening!
The grim reaper approached as the slaughter began!
Nevertheless, Ye Lingchen remained standing at the same spot with his eyes lowered. It was as though all that had nothing to do with him.
The edge of his lips curled into a smile. That smile seemed to be mocking his opponents’ naivety, showing pride in his strength and appreciation for the beauty of this world.
Three inches!
Two inches!
One inch!
Those life-threatening attacks got closer and closer, threatening to cut apart Ye Lingchen’s body and end his life at the very next moment. Finally, it was only an inch away from him.
“What’s that brat doing? Could it be that he’s not here to destroy us, but for suicide?”
Elder Hiroshi frowned. At first, he was hoping to be entertained; to add some thrill into his boring life. However, it would seem that there would be no show. It would end before it could even start.
“What a waste of my feelings. To think a proud and stoic person like me actually made quite a few expressions for this kind of trash. What a troll!”
Tsune Takeshi harrumphed. The disdain he felt for Ye Lingchen peaked. It was as though he expected a champion, but found out later that it was just a peasant—such a revolting feeling.
Only half an inch left!
The edge of the blades had seemingly touched Ye Lingchen’s hair!
Right at the very last moment, Ye Lingchen finally made his move!
All that happened without any sign. Right at the fine line between life and death, something happened.
Ye Lingchen was like the sea’s surface that stayed still for a long time. Just when everyone thought it was perfectly safe, a huge crushing wave appeared with a sudden roar!
His nimble body twisted at a weird angle, making a movement that was unimaginable to a regular person. It was as though every part of his body had gained independence and could move on their own!
He accurately dodged all the attacks at the very last moment!
The blades brushed past him by only one millimeter!
In the next instant, Ye Lingchen raised his hands and they turned into a blur. It was difficult for others to follow his strong claws. All they could see were countless afterimages flying about!
Even Elder Hiroshi could only barely see them after focusing his attention, much less the others.
Ye Lingchen flawlessly executed the Dragon-Catcher Hand. Due to his Qi Refinement, his palms were all the more dextrous, allowing for speed and strength without sacrificing one or the other. It was as sharp as an eagle’s claws and as quick as a cat!
Five seconds later, Ye Lingchen’s movement came to a halt!
Then, clanging sounds could be heard as the blades fell to the floor!
The hands of the five armed martial artists were empty. They were disarmed by Ye Lingchen and had their weapons thrown to the ground!
“This… How is this possible?”
Tsune Takeshi’s eyes bulged as he was shaken to the core. He stared wide-eyed as he looked at the blades on the floor.
Ye Lingchen’s ability had once again reached a new height in his mind. It was absolutely terrifying.
The jealousy in his heart grew stronger. ‘We’re both young men. Why do you have such powerful abilities? Are you cheating? This power should belong to a chosen one like me! Nobody else can be qualified to have such abilities!’
The calmness on Elder Hiroshi’s face was slowly replaced by a look of shock.
The speed of Ye Lingchen’s claw technique had definitely surpassed the speed of a cat!
How was that possible?
How could a human surpass the speed of a cat? One should know that a cat’s speed was seven times faster than a snake! How could a human achieve that?
Elder Hiroshi did not expect his countless research to be proven wrong in that instant!
However, after he recovered from the shock, he then looked at Ye Lingchen’s body with a gaze that was filled with greed. Such a person was the best type of research material, right?
If Elder Hiroshi thought that way, much less the other workers. Even if they have conducted unique experiments, they were surprised by that sight. In fact, they were even suspecting if Ye Lingchen was a genetically modified human!
On the second floor, along with the five martial artists entering a daze, the other 10 man-beast hybrids had also unwittingly stopped their attacks. Their brains were trapped in a dazed state.
Everything that happened earlier was like a dream to them.
They were unable to see what had happened, much less how Ye Lingchen did it. They were powerless to retaliate before being disarmed by Ye Lingchen!
“How could you freaks of nature bear to continue living in this world? Your existence is not only a waste of oxygen, it’s also a taint to our beautiful world!”
In the silence, Ye Lingchen suddenly burst forth with criticism in an authoritative voice. That caused the man-beast hybrids to feel increasingly embarrassed.
“You…should kill yourselves!”
‘Mm? Kill ourselves?’
‘Are you kidding me?’
The five martial artists’ eyes popped wide open. The embarrassment in their hearts disappeared in an instant as they stared at Ye Lingchen with their furious red eyes filled with hatred.
‘Asking us to kill ourselves after criticizing us? Are you insulting our intelligence?’
“Kill ourselves? F*ck you!”
One of them bellowed. His body was strong and sturdy. After losing his weapon, his hand transformed into a tiger’s claw and swiped at Ye Lingchen as he roared!
