Then, only a word remained⦠âF*ck!â
Paul turned all the resentment and grudge against the True Martial Starlord into energy before venting
on those female bloodshot-eyed gorillas.

âBodhiâs Dragon-Tusk Punch!â
Paul immediately let out the punch on a gorilla that jumped over to scratch his throat. The gorilla was
knocked back with a loud bang, but it was not injured severely and soon came up to him again.
Paul
Alex
That old geezerâs reminder about the opponents having the same combat power was indeed not a lie.
Each apeâs combat power was comparable to his.
Three minutes later, seven long wounds were inflicted on Paulâs back. He was drenched in blood
before he managed to kill the first gorilla.
Paul
Alex
Meanwhile, the burning, piercing pain on the back, the blood all over his face and body, and the
remaining gorillasâ crazy antics completely aroused Paulâs passion and ferocity.
Paul
Alex
âCome! The massacre has just begun!â
Divine power was a blessing for healing injuries. Paul exerted his divine power to the extreme while
dropping the corpses and rushing back to the troop.

Alex
âTrue Martial Star-Shattering Punch!â
In this completely unfamiliar environment, Paul used every attacking move he learned. Finally, he found
that the introductory True Martial Star-Shattering Punch that he had just learned was the most effective
since it could directly condense the mysterious factors there.
Paul
Alex
âIs this a test of willpower?
âIt feels like itâs honing my martial arts!â
In fact, Paul could only attack so many gorillas barehanded, so he could only advance and retreat while
slowly honing himself.
Paul
Alex
However, he discovered something afterward.
The Ancestral Bodhi Tree could seemingly absorb the mysterious factors here and feed Paul later. The
three thousand golden cores in his body had shown a certain sign of germination, and with the current
absorption of a tremendous amount of mysterious factors, the three thousand golden coresâ
germination steadily accelerated.

At True Martial Shrine, Claudia woke up with a soft hum. The first reaction after she woke up was to
scream in terror. She even rubbed her stomach and waist vigorously.
A demon beast had just bitten through her body and stomach, with her intestines overflowing out of her
belly, an abnormally terrifying scenario.
The old protector looked at her. âDid the trial end so soon?â
Claudia hadnât yet recovered from the shock It took her a while to calm down. âWasnât I dead?â
The old man said, âThatâs just a trial. Thereâs no harm in failing.â
Claudia patted her chest. âIt freaked me out. Luckily, it was just an illusion.â
The old man asked, âHow many demon beasts did you kill while you were in there?â
Claudia stretched out her index finger. Then, she bent it slowly, curling it over the thumb.
âZero?!â The old man went speechless. This would be his first encounter with a trialist who had failed to
kill a single demon beast.
âUh. Sir, you donât have to show that expression, right? As soon as I entered the trial, I encountered the
pursuit of a large group of demon beasts. I already lasted a long while. My willpower should be
considered decent.â
The old man did not want to talk anymore. âYou can ask how many demon beasts the others have
killed later.â
As soon as his voice fellâ¦
âAhh!â
Metztli Flores jumped up with an exclamation.
The old man was startled. Did this woman end the trial so fast as well?
Claudia asked, âMetztli, how many demon beasts did you kill?â
Metztli said annoyingly, âWhat demon beasts? I didnât see any of them.â
The old man was surprised. âHow did you end the trial then?â
Metztli looked embarrassed. âI was naked after entering this crappy trial. I was trying to find some tree
leaves to make an outfit, but I didnât expect them to be were poisonousâ¦â
Thus, she had been poisoned to death just like that. Then, people woke up one after another.
The old man was totally speechless upon asking about their situation. Most had not killed a single
demon beast and had died in various ways.
The trialists of this year had really put on all kinds of death shows!
It was then that a figure flashed.
Paul, initially sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly flashed and⦠Disappeared from his original
place.
