Chapter 414: Chapter 53 Torturing Him_2
“Such fast movement technique,” Xu Meng commented. He knew it was the Lightning Body Method. In such a short period of time, Xu Mo had managed to cultivate the Lightning Body Method to an incredibly strong level, mastering its essence.
At that moment, his power erupted, his speed, and explosive strength were astonishing. He chased after his opponent in an instant, sweeping through like a mighty army, unleashing a tyrannical Sword Gang that swept through the space ahead and cleaved down.
Xu Mo’s body shifted positions instantly, appearing somewhere else—he was evading.
Xu Meng continued to pursue with rapid strides, but Xu Mo kept evading using his movement technique, not clashing directly with Xu Meng. His attack power was not as strong as his opponent’s; if he faced Xu Meng head-on he was certain to lose. There was a gap between B+ and A-, and moreover, Xu Meng excelled in strength even among those at A- level.
In the battlefield, the booming noises continued as Xu Meng pursued relentlessly. Xu Mo kept moving and dodging, using his movement technique to look for opportunities. The surrounding spectators watched intently as both began to fight in earnest, giving their all.
For Xu Mo, this was a test. Could he find an opportunity to counterattack under Xu Meng’s fierce assault?
...
The two chased each other around the battlefield and after a moment, Xu Meng stopped and looked at Xu Mo, who stood opposite him, and said, “Are you trying to wear me out?”
Xu Mo looked toward Xu Meng, Source Power flowing, spiritual power focusing, the Source Power Field around him emitting sparks of electricity, as his War Saber began to glow with the light of the blade.
As a flash of lightning appeared, Xu Mo’s body turned into an afterimage once again, charging toward Xu Meng.
Xu Meng, seeing Xu Mo’s charge, swung his Heavy Shield directly. In the next moment, Xu Mo appeared in the air; Xu Meng seemed to have predicted Xu Mo’s move, and as he slashed with his Heavy Shield, he leaped up, smashing the Energy Shield forward fiercely and tyrannically.
Streaks of lightning appeared as Xu Mo shifted positions in the air, evading the Energy Shield’s attack and emerging on Xu Meng’s left side. Now in mid-air, Xu Meng had no leverage, but he saw the sharpness in Xu Mo’s eyes.
“Hiss…” An afterimage appeared at Xu Meng’s side, and the sabre struck like thunder. This strike was immensely dominating, as Xu Mo was entirely engulfed in the lightning.
Xu Meng saw Xu Mo on his flank and swept his left Shield across.
A sharp noise resonated as the War Saber grazed Xu Meng’s Battle Armor, sparking fire. At the same time, the Heavy Shield struck, and with a loud bang, Xu Mo was sent flying away.
Xu Mo crashed to the ground, skidding to a halt, and pain surged through his left arm.
At the same time, Xu Meng landed, turning to look at Xu Mo as he rose to his feet and asked, “You alright?”
“I’m okay. Got used to getting beaten up a lot recently,” Xu Mo joked.

Xu Meng glanced at Xu Mo’s saber and said, “You’re still using a B+ grade War Saber. If you were using an A- grade, it might be stronger, giving you a chance to cut through the Battle Armor and injure me. If that strike had been strong enough, I would have lost.”
“I’ll stick with lower-grade equipment for now and use higher-grade stuff for the duel,” Xu Mo replied.
Xu Meng showed a hint of surprise.
The others also approached, with members of the Domineering Shield Team expressing some admiration. One of them said, “You’ve improved a lot in two months, especially in your movement technique. But Amanda, with her Mechanical Body, will also be very speedy. I suggest you find someone fast in movement and attack to spar with you.”
“Do you have anyone in mind?” Xu Mo asked.
“Yes,” the person replied. “You fought him when you first joined the Divine Sword Bureau.”
“Ye Qiu?” Xu Mo said.
“Yes,” the other nodded. “I’ll contact him for you.”
With that, he dialed Ye Qiu’s number on the Communicator and soon the call connected.
He quickly ended the call and turned to Xu Mo, “He agreed. He said to pass you his Communicator number, and you can contact him anytime.”
“Great, thanks,” Xu Mo said, then received Ye Qiu’s number.
“There’s one more month. Aim to take your Combat Power up another level,” the person said. Xu Mo nodded, and then the members of the Domineering Shield Team left.
After they departed, only Zero remained there, looking at Xu Mo with some concern.
This time, Xu Mo’s opponent was an A- level talent from the Lancelot Star, and the match was a duel.
“Queen of Devils, will you spar with me?” Xu Mo asked.
“Okay.” Zero nodded, and the two fought three hundred rounds until they were both tired and then left the place.
Xu Mo continued his devilish training, meanwhile seeking out Ye Qiu and experts from the Divine Sword Bureau to spar with.
As days passed, the date of the duel drew closer and closer.
In Chuanxing City, countless people were discussing the duel, and a tense atmosphere was spreading.
Both sides had issued public declarations of duel, with no way back. Now, the people of the Chuanxing City cluster knew about it, and even other planets were informed, with numerous Alien Races also taking an interest in this battle.
In this fight, their Byron Star’s top Transcendent talent could possibly lose his life.
Now, it was unknown how Xu Mo was progressing in his Cultivation within the Divine Sword Bureau.
But the outside world’s attitude was uniformly pessimistic, although they all supported Xu Mo, the gap was still significant, and now, they could only pray for a miracle to occur.
Recently, at the Spaceport of Chuanxing City, Alien flying devices were arriving one after another, descending upon Chuanxing City.
It was said that Alien Races from Byron Star had even opened betting pools on this duel.
In the leased area of Lancelot Star, Amanda looked up at the flying devices above and walked forward; as a flying device landed, a group of people came down from it.
“Amanda,” the person leading the group called out, placing a hand on their chest.
Amanda made the same gesture, a Noble Knight’s etiquette of Lancelot Star; the arrivals were his companions, members of the Star Lord Knight Order.
“Why are you here too?” Amanda asked respectfully.
“As your duel is imminent, of course I came to see. How is it, do you feel confident?” the leader asked, with an exceedingly dazzling emblem on his person, a silver cross star.
“Just a lowly race, there’s no suspense,” Amanda replied.
“Amanda, this time, your task is not only to win and kill him,” the person continued, and Amanda looked up, only to hear him say, “This duel has garnered much attention; as far as I know, that person is extremely popular on Byron Star, and everyone will be watching this duel. Therefore, in the battle, you must brutally torture him, making him die in agony, letting the people of Byron Star see the lowliness of their own race in front of their eyes, to let them see the humility of the despicable citizens of Byron Star, who have become arrogant enough to dare to expel us. Amanda, help them recognize the reality.”
“Okay.” Amanda nodded respectfully, realizing that the mission this person brought was significant; they intended to use this duel to make the people of Byron Star understand their place, as a lower civilization, a humble populace.
He would, as instructed, torment Xu Mo and make him pay the price.
Meanwhile, at the Divine Sword Bureau.
A flying device landed and several figures descended from it; they were upright in stature, with an extraordinary demeanor, heading toward the Divine Sword Bureau.
The Divine Sword Bureau’s many onlookers could not help but step aside, their eyes filled with a measure of awe.
These individuals were members of the Divine Sword Team, returning from outside.
They headed for the Divine Sword Team’s area, where Ge Qing approached.
“Where is Xu Mo?” the leader asked.
“In training,” Ge Qing responded.
“Show me his latest Combat Power assessment data,” the leader commanded.
“Okay.” Ge Qing turned on the electronic screen, scrolling through it, and then passed it over; after skimming the data, the leader asked Ge Qing, “Can Xu Mo win?”
Ge Qing shook his head: “We can’t get accurate data on Amanda.”
“Take me to see his training,” the leader said, and Ge Qing nodded, leading the way.
They had received news that Lancelot Star was taking this duel very seriously, and many Lancelot Star People had come to Chuanxing City!
