"I've never heard such an outrageous demand before. Kid, this was your idea—don't go back on your word if you lose!" War God No. 8 sneered as he spoke.
Jiang Kai smiled faintly. "Don't worry, a bet is a bet."
Since Jiang Kai insisted on fighting one against four, the other side naturally didn't plan to show mercy. Four War Gods stepped up onto the arena at once.
No. 1, No. 3, No. 7, No. 8—four top War Gods, ranked first, second, fourth, and fifth on the special training leaderboard!
War God No. 8 said to his companions, "I'll end the fight."
War God No. 1 said calmly, "Better safe than sorry, Old Eight. Just don't get careless."
Old Eight nodded. He had just gone through one battle already. Although he had retreated with his whole body intact, the expenditure had been enormous.
He definitely wasn't underestimating the enemy. The moment the fight began, he activated his extraordinary talent.
"Who dares compete!"
"Kid, you can go die now!" With that, Old Eight's figure shot out like lightning, dashing toward Jiang Kai.
Jiang Kai gave a cold sneer, both hands already clenching onto Chasing Fate, completing tempering.
"You people aren't worthy of being War Gods. In my eyes, you don't even qualify to be Chinese."
"Cancel National Soul state!"
Jiang Kai directly canceled the National Soul state of the four.
Over the past few days, the Chinese National Soul had gained a small boost. At present, it could increase base attributes by 17% and critical rate by 17%. That kind of enhancement was already considerable. But Jiang Kai directly stripped all four of them of their National Soul state!
As Old Eight attacked, suddenly he felt a strange sensation surge through his body. Immediately after, he heard the voice of the system.
[Your Chinese National Soul has been reclaimed. You can no longer enjoy the benefits granted by the Chinese National Soul.]
Old Eight still hadn't figured out what was going on, but he had no time to think. He had already charged in front of Jiang Kai.
But as he came face-to-face with Jiang Kai, what he saw wasn't fear on Jiang Kai's face—it was a smile.
"War of Eight Desolations!"
Immediately after, his vision blurred. Jiang Kai, moving at a speed he couldn't comprehend, swiftly flashed to his side.
"Moonlit Immortal Step Sword!"
"So fast!" War God No. 3 furrowed his brows tightly. He was starting to realize something was wrong.
"He's Jiang Kai!" War God No. 1 narrowed his eyes slightly. "He can control the effects of the National Soul!"
"Jiang Kai…" War God No. 7's eyes went wide.
At the same time, Jiang Kai dodged War God No. 8's attack and with one move of Moonlit Immortal Step Sword, directly stabbed toward the man's ribs!
War God No. 8 immediately sensed something was wrong. This guy's speed was too fast!
"Jiang Kai? You're Jiang Kai! True Qi Body Shield!"
A light shield rose around War God No. 8's body, blocking Jiang Kai's sword.
But Jiang Kai's strike was abnormally terrifying. The True Qi Body Shield blocked the attack power of Purple Lightning Illusion Light, but it couldn't withstand the tremendous impact force.
War God No. 8 was directly blasted away by a single strike from Jiang Kai, his body shooting like a cannonball, smashing dozens of meters before crashing heavily to the ground.
But even as he was sent flying, Jiang Kai had already launched The King of Hell's Decree.
"Wrath of the Underworld God!"
War God No. 8, already blown back and unable to defend, was helpless.
The King of Hell's Decree crazily drilled into his True Qi shield.
Moments later, it pierced through, then tore straight through his armor, gouging open a gap and splitting the armor apart.
"This isn't good—Jiang Kai's too strong! We can't let him kill Old Eight!" War God No. 3 growled lowly and immediately led the others charging at Jiang Kai.
Earlier they had planned to let Old Eight defeat Jiang Kai alone. But now it was clear—before Jiang Kai, Old Eight wasn't even a match!
"Save him? Too late! War Leap!" Jiang Kai leapt up and smashed heavily into the ground, sending War God No. 8 flying again.
"Tempered Chasing Fate! Combination form!"
More than twenty Chasing Fates shot out, forming into an arrowhead shape in midair, instantly piercing straight through War God No. 8's body as he hung in the air!
When War God No. 8 hit the ground, his left waist already had a gaping hole. His whole body collapsed to the ground like a pile of mud, blood spreading and staining the earth red.
The other three War Gods looked at their dying companion on the ground, eyes full of shock.
Everyone knew Jiang Kai's profession level—he was still only at Tier 4.
It was said that between extraordinary professions and mortal professions lay a gulf as wide as heaven and earth, a qualitative difference.
But before Jiang Kai, Old Eight hadn't even lasted 10 seconds!
War God No. 8, full of horror in his eyes, stared at Jiang Kai in shock.
"You… how can you possibly be this strong!"
Jiang Kai had always been known for terrifying attack power. But now, with the Moonlit Immortal Step Sword, War Leap, and War of Eight Desolations movement skills, his strength had not only skyrocketed but also become much more complete!
Jiang Kai gave a cold snort, completely ignoring the man. He turned calmly to the other three War Gods.
"Now it's your turn! Clone!"
Beside Jiang Kai, another Jiang Kai appeared.
That Jiang Kai glanced at the three opponents and said coldly, "Why are your opponents getting weaker and weaker? Before it was a King-rank boss, and now it's just three pieces of trash who've just stepped into extraordinary?"
Jiang Kai's face darkened. "Do the work and stop talking so much. You take the one with 'No. 1' written on him."
The clone's face was full of disdain. "Why do you get to fight two and I only get one? With my strength, I could handle a few more!"
Jiang Kai pressed his forehead with one hand. "Just do it!"
"Got it!"
Now the arena was truly in chaos.
Two Jiang Kais, facing three enemies.
War God No. 3 had already fought two consecutive battles and his energy was nearly drained. Counting it up, Jiang Kai had an even greater advantage.
"Surpassing Shot!"
Both Jiang Kais simultaneously used the same opening move. After firing Chasing Fate, both rushed at their opponents, their actions identical down to the detail!
"Moonlit Immortal Step Sword!"
"Moonlit Immortal Step Sword!"
In the audience, Tech Bro was completely dumbfounded. Seeing two Jiang Kais unleash a storm of attacks, he muttered, "Th-this really is double the happiness…"
Jiang Kai didn't bother controlling the clone, nor was he worried it would be easily defeated. After all, this was the same guy he himself had once struggled endlessly against.
Arrogant as the clone might be, dissatisfied with being turned into Jiang Kai's skill—once the fight began, Jiang Kai could trust him completely.
Not only that, he also possessed imitation versions of the King of Hell's Decree and Divine Order of Light.
War God No. 3's extraordinary talent was "True Martial Peerless," which greatly increased True Qi attack strength—extremely powerful. But after two prior battles, he had burned a huge amount of energy. At this moment, his fighting power was even weaker than War God No. 7's.
"Ancient Martial Inheritance!" War God No. 7 activated his extraordinary talent. His weapon and armor were all coated with a layer of violet mist.
Even the 100 penetration of the King of Hell's Decree couldn't pierce straight through his armor. And every strike of his carried the effect of True Qi attack.
With a single slash, a sword aura swept forth.
His True Qi attacks gave him both close-range and long-range power. If Jiang Kai used War Leap, he would instead become an easy target.
"War of Eight Desolations!" Jiang Kai quickly dodged, avoiding the enemy's True Qi attack.
"True Yuan Blast!" War God No. 7 shouted lowly. The True Qi within the sword aura exploded right as it neared Jiang Kai, and the massive energy wave blasted Jiang Kai back.
War God No. 3 seized the chance to rush over. "Jiang Kai, let's settle old and new grudges together!"
"Let you see the strength of a War God!"
"True Martial Sword!" After charging up for a long time, War God No. 3 finally unleashed a terrifying strike.
The sword became a gigantic sword aura, slamming toward Jiang Kai with full force, slicing him in two!
However, no one knew exactly when it started, but whenever people saw Jiang Kai "killed," their first reaction was all the same now.
"It's a substitute!" War God No. 3 cried out.
"Pretty sharp, huh? You got it right." A voice came from beside him. "Moonlit Immortal Step Sword!"
War God No. 9 had previously damaged War God No. 3's armor. Jiang Kai targeted that weakness. With one thrust, he pierced straight through War God No. 3's body!
Jiang Kai released the sword hilt. Purple Lightning Illusion Light carried War God No. 3's body flying, pinning it against the outer wall of a building by the arena.
War God No. 3 was nailed firmly to the wall with a single strike, completely immobile.
Seeing his wretched state, Jiang Kai threw out the King of Hell's Decree again.
"This one's to return the favor for War God No. 9!"
"Not time yet!"
This time, "Not time yet" wasn't just a phrase for show.
The black Underworld God tablet launched a crazed attack on War God No. 3, leaving countless wounds across his body. Yet no matter how agonizing his screams, he simply couldn't die.
Witnessing this scene, even Jiang Kai's own allies couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
