Chapter 830: Su Hao's strength
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Congratulations!” Tian Gang sounded very sincere.
“Thanks.” Su Hao replied, and he was as respectful as always without showing any arrogance for breaking through into the world realm. More so, he didn't seek to justify his achievement in destroying the Bai family. When the elders saw this, they nodded one after another. With just this factor alone, Tian Zi is already far behind Lin Hu by a huge margin.
“From today onward, you're the leader of the Tian family's core disciples.'” Tian Gang said to Su Hao.
“Leader?” Su Hao's pupils suddenly shrank.
This was such a huge surprise!
The leader of the core disciples is only second to Clan Head! He originally thought that even if he uses the fact that he broke through into the world realm to cover up the resources used in the energy warehouse, he would still be scolded by Tian Gang and others. He never thought that not only did the Tian family not punis.h.i.+ng him but rewarded him with this position instead.
It seemed that he had underestimated the significance of a world esper.
He didn't need to do anything. Just by breaking through into the world realm, the entire Tian family's perception toward him had a complete change. So, this is what a world esper is all about!
Su Hao finally had a deep understanding of it.
“But did you really breakthrough into the world realm?”
Su Hao hadn't even spoken yet. One of the elders suddenly voiced out and looked at him with some doubts, “Not long ago, the Tian family had quite a number of people breaking through into the world realm. However, each one of them had a terrifying aura. As for you… I can't seem to detect anything.”
Aura?
Su Hao pouted. Of course, he knew what he meant.
When a world esper broke through, Rule Force would leak out because one can't control Rule Force yet. That's easy for him to do so. With just a little bit of Rule Force he had within his body, he can easily reveal it, but to use such precious Rule Force to act?
That's something he would never do!
“What are you trying to say?” Su Hao asked back.
“Nothing, I am just a little doubtful.” The elder sneered, “I heard that there are some Nitai artifacts that got contaminated with Rule Force, which is why they can have some bit of Rule Force. The situation last night…”
“Hehe, did you really breakthrough?” That elder didn't hold back his words.
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. There is such a thing as a fake breakthrough into the world realm? However, looking closely at today's Lin Hu, he didn't seem to be any different from the time before the breakthrough. Forget about the majesty of a world esper; he didn't even have the aura of the domain realm just like before.
Did he really breakthrough?
Everyone couldn't help but have some doubts.
“I don't seem to need to explain this to you.” Su Hao said disdainfully.
“Hehe, since Lord Tian Gang had appointed you as the leader of core disciples, shouldn't you say something? The current you, I can't see any aura of a world esper.” That elder became increasingly doubtful. After all, this Lin Hu in front didn't seem to show any criteria of a world esper.
“Don't challenge my limits.” Su Hao's eyes turned cold.
The atmosphere around suddenly dropped in temperature.
Unexpectedly, under such circ.u.mstances, Tian Gang didn't intervene. He just looked from beside and wished to witness how Lin Hu is going to solve this. After all, he had some doubts too.
“So what if I provoke you?”
Seeing that Tian Gang didn't intervene, that elder instantly rejoiced, “You broke through, right? Prove it to us! Your breakthrough yesterday is just a cover-up, right? A world esper must have Rule Force. You just need to show us your Rule Force. Won't that solve everything?”
“Show my Rule Force to you?” Su Hao sneered, “You're not qualified!”
“Ridiculous!” The elder stared at Su Hao coldly, “Sure enough, something is wrong with you. Since others do not doubt you, let me be the wicked one. You dare to fight with me?”
“Challenge me?” Su Hao looked at him in amus.e.m.e.nt, “Just you, a mere peak domain esper?”
“Yes, I am a peak domain esper.” That elder instead laughed it off, “However, whether I am a mere or not, that's hard to say. For you, I am just a peak domain esper. I would like to see how in just one night, an absolute domain esper stepped into the world realm.”
Doubts.
Extreme doubts.
As the elder said, everyone remembered.
True, yesterday, Lin Hu was still an absolute domain esper. His weird breakthrough was achieved overnight. If it's a normal breakthrough, no one would have doubted him, but he still looked the same as usual after the breakthrough. Now, that's strange.
“Did he really breakthrough?”
“It can't be fake, right?”
“Is it possible to fake a world realm breakthrough?”
“Not sure, but Lin Hu's att.i.tude is a bit strange.”
Everyone was full of doubts within their hearts.
“Lin Hu, you don't have to play along with him.” Tian Gang suddenly voiced out and looked at Su Hao with warm eyes, “As a world esper, you need to have the majesty of a world esper. Even if you don't accept, I won't doubt you. Just be the leader in peace.”
“Lord!”
Everyone was shocked. Why did Tian Gang intervene at this moment?
They only had this one chance to test Lin Hu!
“Just as I expected.” Su Hao said in his heart.
It seems that not only are these people doubtful but as well as Tian Gang. If Tian Gang didn't say a word, it meant that he had no suspicion. It sounded like Tian Gang was helping Su Hao, but he was actually forcing Su Hao to respond! Well, it's good too. Since there is this one chance, he would use it to settle it once and for all.
“Originally, I wouldn't accept the challenge.” Su Hao looked at Tian Gang for a second and then smiled indifferently, “If any random people can challenge me, then being a world esper would be too boring. However, since Lord Tian Gang gave me the chance to be the leader of core disciples, I can't be bringing you any trouble, right? This challenge, I will accompany him.”
“You agreed?” That elder was a bit stunned and then looked at Su Hao's eyes, “You will use Rule Force?”
“I won't.” Su Hao shook his head.
“Huh?” That elder frowned. How can he prove that he's a world esper without using Rule Force?
“Using Rule Force, you will surely die.” Su Hao said in a flat tone, “The scariest thing in this world is ignorance. Without experiencing Rule Force before, you will never know how powerful it is. As for how to prove I am a world esper, that's for you to worry about. You challenged me, and I accepted. It's just as simple as that.”
Su Hao's tone was very gentle.
One could sense the endless confidence coming from him. The surrounding members of the Tian family looked at each other. Such strong self-confidence, could it be Lin Hu really did breakthrough?
“Ridiculous!” The elder coldly said, “Without Rule Force, how dare you say you broke through?”
Boom!
Endless energy glowed.
The sky turned red.
Endless flames emerged from the sky, dying the sky in red. The flames formed a dragon shape as it headed toward Su Hao!
Fiery dragon!
A top-notch origin technique for fire element talent!
Only top fire talents can control flames to such a degree, and one needs to reach the peak of the domain realm before being able to master such an attack. As the flames raged, the surrounding members were so frightened that they had to take several steps back. Even those peak domain espers felt the terrifying hot energy.
This is the strongest power of a peak domain esper!
Su Hao looked so small in front of this giant dragon. Under everyone's eyes, that fiery dragon charged at Su Hao and then…
The flames halted, and the scene became silent.
Suddenly, a strange thing happened.
The elder raised his head. When he saw this scene in front of him clearly, he also opened his mouth wide. That flame was packed with dense, powerful energy, but Su Hao just grabbed on its neck. The dragon body was so still that it was afraid to move.
Swis.h.!.+
Su Hao easily threw it away.
The fiery dragon's body struck the ground, and a roar echoed.
Su Hao took a step forward.
His right foot fell lightly on the dragon's body before endless light glowed.
Snap!
The fiery dragon vanished.
Everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva. That fiery dragon got destroyed by Lin Hu's foot? Holding it with one hand, throwing it to the ground, and then stepping on it with a foot. This is like a joke. It was as if the one in front of Lin Hu wasn't a dragon but an ant.
An ant that could be trampled to death at any time.
How did Lin Hu become this powerful?
At the same time, an idea emerged in everyone's mind. A world esper! Lin Hu actually did breakthrough. Only a world esper could be this domineering.
“Seems that Lin Hu really had a breakthrough.”
“Yeah, that dragon in front of him is like a kid's toy.”
“It looks like we have to call him Lord Lin Hu in the future.”
Everyone whispered.
“No, he's not!” That elder shouted suddenly and stared at Su Hao fiercely. “Defeating me only indicates that you're strong! You're strong within the domain realm, but that's not enough to prove that you're a world esper. I am sure you didn't breakthrough, or else why are you afraid of using Rule Force?”
Su Hao's figure halted.
“You're going overboard.” Su Hao stared at him coldly, “Since you want to have a look, I will let you experience it then.”
“Rule Force!” Su Hao made a move indifferently.
A hint of light emerged as a flickering translucent force appeared out of thin air. The surrounding scene had all domain espers scared. When they looked at Su Hao, they were fearful. Rule Force, he's truly a world esper!
“You're really…” That elder looked at Su Hao in disbelief.
“I already told you, and now I will let you experience it.” Su Hao calmly said and instantly shot his Rule Force. Just like the time when Tian Gang destroyed him, his Rule Force just hit its target lightly.
“Don't!” That elder shouted in horror, but before he finished his words, the Rule Force already landed on his body.
Boom!
Everyone was stunned. Lin Hu actually attacked. Even Tian Gang, who was watching this drama unfold, was shocked. Even he couldn't stop Lin Hu in time. Then, those present witnessed a horrifying scene.
That elder with terrifying strength collapsed under Rule Force!
His origin ability, talent, physical body…
Everything dissipated!
