Chapter 152: A Dou King is Here!

"Is that Mu Zhan?"

"That lunatic went to train with the army, didn't he? Why is he back?"

"This will be interesting."

Mu Zhan has a volatile personality, always ready for a fight. Many noble children in the Imperial Capital have suffered at his hands.

What surprised everyone, however, is that while Mu Zhan is known for beating others, he is now being beaten in public!

"Don't be too arrogant, Yun Tianming!"

"I'm not the same as three years ago!!"

Mu Zhan gritted his teeth, let out a roar, and conjured a vivid green Dou Qi Armor around himself.

"Dou Qi Armor, Mu Zhan has actually broken through to the realm of Dou Grandmaster?"

Yao Ye raised an eyebrow.

"Huh! Mu Zhan's combat talent ranks among the top tier among his peers. If we really have to compare, he won't lose to Misty Cloud Sect's disciples!"

Liu Ling has a good relationship with Mu Zhan, so naturally sided with him.

"Although I can't see Yun Tianming's strength, my intuition tells me he won't lose."

Yao Yu's lips curled up as her curious eyes watched Yun Tianming, who remained calm and composed throughout.

"Tianming, you..."

Ya Fei looked at the young man beside her with concern.

"No need to worry, Ya Fei. Just a mere 1 Star Dou Grandmaster, I can easily defeat with just a flick of my finger."

Yun Tianming gently squeezed Ya Fei's nervous hand.

"Just a mere 1 Star Dou Grandmaster?"

"Wow, that's quite the confidence, isn't it?"

After hearing this, everyone showed expressions of surprise.

Tengshan frowned, wanting to intervene, but was stopped by Hai Bo Dong beside him, who sneered, "No need to intervene, the Mu family's clown is no match for Yun Tianming."

Mu Zhan, seeing Yun Tianming ignore him and publicly show affection towards Ya Fei, felt as if he had been slapped in the face. He roared in frustration, "Yun Tianming! Your arrogance will come at a cost!!"

With a stomp of his foot, his body enveloped in Dou Qi Armor, he charged towards Yun Tianming like a humanoid tank.

"Snap~"

Yun Tianming snapped his fingers.

"Deep Forest Assassination!"

Suddenly, a towering tree full of thorns sprouted from the ground, striking Mu Zhan and shattering his Dou Qi Armor as if it were nothing.

"Impossible! Is this our Mu family's Dou Technique? No, hmph!"

Mu Zhan was sent flying, spitting blood as multiple bones in his body broke, sustaining severe injuries.

"Just one move. Just one strike defeated Mu Zhan?"

"What Dou Technique is this? A wood attribute Dou Technique stronger than the Mu family's?"

"What kind of strength does this Yun Tianming possess?"

Everyone was deeply shocked. No wonder he was so calm; his power was simply on another level.

"So powerful!"

"The power of a casual strike is already at the Dou Spirit level!"

Tengshan's narrowed eyes widened slightly, his face filled with a touched expression.

"Hehe~ He's come a long way, hasn't he?"

Hai Bo Dong smiled without explanation. He had witnessed firsthand Yun Tianming confronting a Dou Emperor-level powerhouse head-on.

"Tianming, you've brought your sister a big surprise!"

Ya Fei's red lips parted, her face showing an admiring expression. With Yun Tianming around, the trouble caused by Mu Zhan, which had plagued her for years, could finally be resolved.

"Dou Spirit powerhouse. His talent truly makes him the number one in the Jia Ma Empire."

Yao Ye's beautiful eyes sparkled continuously, which, for her cold demeanor, was the first time she felt such strong interest.

"A monster! Could this guy be a disciple of some super family in the Central Plains? We in the Jia Ma Empire can't produce someone like this!"

Yao Yu complained repeatedly. Being so powerful and still an Alchemist, it's like he's not bound by mortal limitations.

Just then, a powerful roar echoed in the sky.

"Who dares to harm my grandson!!"

They saw an elderly man clad in armor, with green Dou Qi Wings unfolding behind him, descending aggressively.

"A Dou King powerhouse?"

"Is that Lord Mu Chen from the Mu family?"

"This situation is getting out of hand."

Everyone looked shocked, then turned to Yun Tianming, only to be surprised to find that his expression hadn't changed much, as if he didn't care about the appearance of the Dou King powerhouse before him.

"Grandpa... cough!"

"You have to stand up for me!"

Mu Zhan, blood in his mouth, tearfully complained with a pitiful look.

"Ah Zhan! Who did this to you?"

Mu Chen helped the heavily injured Mu Zhan up and began treating him with wood attribute Dou Qi. As one of the Empire's marshals, Mu Chen had keen observation skills and could instantly tell that Mu Zhan's injuries were caused by some kind of wood attribute Dou Technique, similar to but different from the Mu family's techniques.

"It's him! It's him! That damn bastard!!"

Mu Zhan angrily pointed at Yun Tianming.

"Don't want your hand anymore?"

Yun Tianming sneered.

"!!!"

Mu Zhan was startled, instinctively retracting his fingers.

Everyone was shocked to see this; they couldn't believe Yun Tianming would threaten the Mu family so openly in front of Mu Chen.

"This guy is way too audacious, isn't he? Even if he's a disciple of the same sect, he shouldn't disrespect the Mu family's patriarch."

Liu Ling sweated slightly on his forehead. It was evident that Yun Tianming's actions were beyond his comprehension.

"So, you're Yun Tianming?"

"Don't think just because you're from Misty Cloud Sect, you can bully members of my Mu family!"

Mu Chen glared fiercely at Yun Tianming.

"Bullying? No, I think I've been quite merciful."

"If I didn't want to ruin the atmosphere of the banquet, Mu Zhan would already be dead."

Yun Tianming spoke the truth. So far, there had been no shortage of Dou Grandmasters who had died at his hands.

"If you want to kill my grandson, then I'll slaughter you first!!"

Mu Chen couldn't contain his rage. He glanced at Tengshan beside him, unexpectedly finding that after a few words from the elder next to him, Tengshan chose to remain silent and didn't stop Mu Chen's actions. He couldn't help but feel surprised. This old fox Tengshan, what was he thinking by not intervening?

Although he was puzzled, Mu Chen, whose grandson was severely injured and thus in a bad mood, didn't have the patience to dwell on it. He was about to attack Yun Tianming now!

"Boom!"

The aura of a Dou King powerhouse erupted without reservation, causing everyone present to step back.

"The patriarch of the Mu family is about to lose his temper, this is trouble."

"Sister, should our royal family intervene to mediate? But then again, isn't Yun Tianming a bit too composed? Could he really handle a Dou King powerhouse?"

Princesses Yao Ye and Yao Yu were very curious.

"Sister Ya Fei, you step back."

Yun Tianming pulled Ya Fei behind him, expressionless as he faced the imposing Mu Chen in front of him, casually responding, "Old man, with just your 4 Star Dou King level, you're not qualified."

Huh?! How did this kid see through my strength?

Mu Chen's eyes widened with surprise and uncertainty, his expression turning serious.

"You brat! In all these years, you're the first one daring to say I'm not qualified!"
