...
With Dugu Bo's almost self-destructive and precise rant, the already oppressive air in mid-air froze completely.
Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong exchanged a glance, both seeing a deep sense of apprehension in each other's eyes.
Dugu Bo was absolutely right. Xuan Hao is currently only a level 75 Soul Saint!
With his near-unsolvable "Meteor Slam" tactic, his strategic deterrent power has even subtly surpassed that of Dugu Bo, the veteran Poison Douluo!
When Poison Douluo unleashes poison, it's a nuclear deterrent that would result in mutual destruction, hurting the enemy a thousand while also injuring eight hundred of his own.
But Xuan Hao, after smashing up someone else's lair, can still jump around and teleport away.
This is a one-sided, dimensional reduction attack!
If he really breaks through to level 90 and becomes a Title Douluo... then if you anger him, this guy might just crash down from the sky in his Martial Soul True Body, which is hundreds of meters long!
Amidst an eerie silence and everyone's own thoughts, with Gu Rong, a peak Douluo proficient in spatial power, protecting them, the group returned to Heaven Dou City quietly in no time.
As soon as he entered the city, Dugu Bo, who had always disliked crowds and had a solitary personality, waved his hand and, without saying a word, transformed into a green shadow and disappeared into a dark alley, returning to his residence on his own.
Seeing the large group of beautiful women surrounding Xuan Hao, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong wisely decided not to stay any longer and act as third wheels.
"Xuanhao, let's go back to the sect first."
Ning Fengzhi patted Xuan Hao on the shoulder, his gentle gaze carrying a subtle, unspoken meaning:
"Although you gained the upper hand in today's incident at the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, that old man Yu Yuanzhen will definitely not let it go so easily.
We'll need to handle the aftermath at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School for you these next couple of days, calming their emotions and preventing them from really getting desperate.
You should behave yourself these next few days and avoid causing any more trouble."
After giving his instructions, Ning Fengzhi hurriedly left with Gu Rong.
Once the elders left, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
Standing to the side, Liu Erlong looked at Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, Dugu Yan and other youthful girls.
Unconsciously, she recalled the lewd words Xuan Hao had said when he pinned her to the ground in the cubicle.
Her originally pale cheeks instantly flushed red.
She really didn't want to, and was too embarrassed to, stay any longer in front of these girls who clearly had an ambiguous relationship with Xuan Hao.
"Ahem... I still have a lot of mess to deal with at my academy, so I'll be leaving now."
Liu Erlong avoided Xuan Hao's gaze with a flicker in her eyes.
Before leaving, she put on an air of elder authority, gritted her teeth, glared at Xuan Hao, and said in a low voice, "If you have any free time these next few days, get back to Blue Tyrant Academy!
I have something to settle with you!"
After making those harsh remarks, Liu Erlong didn't give Xuan Hao a chance to retort and fled in panic.
Watching Liu Erlong's almost desperate retreating figure, Ning Rongrong narrowed her eyes suspiciously, then turned her head, her beautiful big eyes fixed on Xuan Hao.
"Xuanhao, tell me the truth, when you used that 'meteor smashing people' move in the sky just now..."
Ning Rongrong bit her lip, her eyes filled with undisguised worry.
Finally, she couldn't help but ask the question she had been holding back all the way:
"Didn't you say that forces are reciprocal?
You slammed into the ground with such terrifying speed and weight.
Even if Yu Yuanzhen didn't stop you, if you really hit the ground... that terrifying recoil force must have caused you great harm, right?"
Xiao Wu, Dugu Yan, and the others beside him nodded in agreement, looking at him with tense expressions.
While they weren't tactical geniuses, they understood basic common sense.
A meteorite impact, though devastating, would inevitably disintegrate due to the immense force of the impact and friction with the ground, or even be vaporized by the intense heat!
Xuan Hao used his own flesh and blood as a meteorite to smash others.
Just thinking about it makes my bones ache!
"Oh dear ladies, what kind of person do you take me for?
Do I look like a masochist who likes to self-harm?"
Seeing the nervous expressions on the girls' faces, Xuan Hao couldn't help but chuckle. He reached out and ruffled Ning Rongrong's hair, patiently explaining:
"Don't worry, that was just a tactical intimidation. I'm not stupid, why would I actually use my body to crash into the ground?"
Xuan Hao raised a finger and explained in detail:
"Actually, during the descent, I not only activated 'Golden Dragon Shock Blast,' but also put on 'Golden Dragon Overlord Body.'"
"Golden Dragon Body greatly enhances my own defense, while Golden Dragon Shockwave compresses all the violent blood energy in my body into my skin with extremely high density.
At the moment of impact with the ground, this compressed blood energy is actually equivalent to putting a super elastic cushioning airbag on me."
"What was blown up was only the layer of blood and qi bombs that I released onto the surface of my body, while my physical body was tightly protected inside by the Golden Dragon Body."
"Moreover, the Golden Dragon Body can withstand attacks with three times my own defense.
The moment the Qi Bomb and the recoil force detonate simultaneously on the body surface, the Golden Dragon Body will instantly reach its limit."
Xuan Hao shrugged and said easily, "And in that fraction of a second before the Invincible Body is about to shatter and the recoil is about to be transmitted to my body... I will directly detonate the shattered Golden Dragon Invincible Body as a propulsion force, and then immediately activate the teleportation skill to directly flash away from the center of the explosion!"
"In other words..."
Ning Rongrong gaped, stunned, and concluded, "Your move was basically... like you made a huge bomb and threw it down.
Then, the instant the bomb exploded... you teleported away?!"
"Bingo! You got it right."
Xuan Hao snapped his fingers and said confidently, "I, Xuan Hao, always rely on my brain when I fight.
The kind of reckless behavior of smashing the ground with my body is too inelegant."
"..."
After listening to Xuan Hao's extremely detailed, even somewhat smug, "tactical analysis," not only Ning Rongrong, but also the usually aloof Zhu Zhuqing and Ye Lingling, who were most knowledgeable in medicine, couldn't help but gasp and fall into deep silence.
Rationally, they did understand the extremely sophisticated physics principles and the logic behind the combination of soul skills in this move.
but!
Emotionally and intuitively, their minds were screaming wildly:
Could a Soul Master with a normal mind really come up with such an extreme operation that completely disregards their own life?!
"You call this 'using your brain'?
You're clearly just asking for trouble!"
Ning Rongrong was the first to react, her face turning pale with anger.
She no longer cared about her ladylike image, grabbed Xuan Hao's ear, and scolded him through gritted teeth, "Do you know how terrifying this operation sounds?!
You're putting two world-destroying forces into extreme collisions on your own body and calling it a 'buffer airbag'?!"
"If even the slightest, most minute, or millisecond-longest accident or mistake were to occur, it would mean utter mutual destruction!"
