Martial God: Grinding from Mortal Flesh to Immortality-Chapter 62: The Blame Is Self-inflicted

"You..."

Zhao Jiadi looked at the blood-colored figure charging at him, his pupils couldn’t help but constrict.

"No, this is impossible, how could a Martial Artist withstand my barrage of fire!!"

Zhao Jiadi shouted, his face somewhat flustered.

He couldn’t fathom that his firepower, which could easily heavily injure a Transcendent of the same level, was somehow endured by Lu Sheng.

And he even came out unscathed!

In the distance, Gao Feng, who was initially worried watching Lu Sheng under the barrage, quickly noticed the red glow surrounding Lu Sheng and smiled again.

"This kid..."

Although Jiang He beside him didn’t speak, a smile tugged at the corner of his lips, and his tightly clenched hands gradually relaxed.

"You think you can get close and take me down? Not so easily!"

Despite the chaos, Zhao Jiadi quickly recovered, his hands transformed the dense array of mechanical barrels into two sharp blades, gleaming with a cold light.

His eyes held a hint of fierceness.

He knew very well that either he’d obtain the qualifications for the Apocalypse Training Camp, or he’d become a discarded pawn of the Zhao family. From the moment he accepted the Reaper Armor transformation, there was no turning back.

"Die for me!!"

Zhao Jiadi’s eyes turned blood-red in an instant, and the two blades slashed towards Lu Sheng.

The energy core within the armor operated at its peak, and even a simple sweep carried immense destructive power.

Boom!!!

A muffled sound exploded. Against Zhao Jiadi’s blade, Lu Sheng blocked it directly with his fist.

The prototype of the True Martial Body covered Lu Sheng, the crimson glow isolating the blade outside.

"You forced me into this!"

Zhao Jiadi’s attacks couldn’t harm Lu Sheng, driving him further into madness.

He pushed the Reaper Armor’s core to its limits, hearing constant booming from within.

Rumble!!!

The core operated under extreme load, providing Zhao Jiadi with even greater power. He continued to attack Lu Sheng but still couldn’t break Lu Sheng’s True Martial Body’s defenses.

"Why! Why!!"

Zhao Jiadi’s eyes reddened further, and his attacks grew erratic.

He thought of his elder brother’s ruthless gaze and his father’s cold expression.

Fear filled his mind instantly.

"It’s time to end this!"

A faint voice suddenly entered Zhao Jiadi’s ears, causing his body to tremble slightly. He looked up blankly to see Lu Sheng raising his fist expressionlessly.

And then...

Five Elements Fist—Jia Wood Realm!

Abundant Qi Blood Power turned into surging vitality, enveloping Lu Sheng’s fist, like a towering tree growing, and smashed onto Zhao Jiadi.

Boom!!

Another muffled sound resonated throughout the Martial Arts Training Hall, striking fear into the hearts of every Mechanical Transformer present.

In the next moment, Zhao Jiadi’s chest exploded, scattering mechanical parts in the air, which then fell to the ground.

Zhao Jiadi was hurled back, as if hit by a truck, crashing to the ground.

In an instant, the entire Martial Arts Training Hall fell silent.

Zhao Jiadi clutched his shattered mechanical torso, looking lifeless, his face ashen.

Zhao Jiadi’s Reaper Armor... was destroyed!

Lu Sheng, victorious! ƒrēenovelkiss.com

No one had expected this scene. No one thought Zhao Jiadi, equipped with third-grade Reaper Armor, would lose to Lu Sheng, a Martial Artist.

Clearly, Zhao Jiadi’s strength was enough to make any Transcendent of the same level apprehensive...

For a moment, many Mechanical Transformers shivered slightly, their gaze filled with fear when looking at Lu Sheng.

Is this... really the weak Martial Artist?

"No... I haven’t lost!!"

"I can’t lose!!"

And then, Zhao Jiadi, lying on the ground with a lifeless expression, suddenly howled.

Struggling, the energy core within his shattered mechanical torso started operating fiercely again.

He stood up with difficulty, the energy core within him running at maximum capacity.

Sparks of electricity could be seen leaping inside of him.

Lu Sheng furrowed his brow, about to speak when he saw the unwilling look in Zhao Jiadi’s eyes.

"The victor... can only be me!"

Zhao Jiadi screamed, more and more arcs of electricity surged over his mechanical body, and the energy core kept roaring.

"Not good!!"

Jiang He, watching from a distance, seemed to realize something and shouted.

His figure instantly charged towards Zhao Jiadi.

However, just as he moved, an extremely terrifying force erupted from Zhao Jiadi.

"I refuse..."

Zhao Jiadi’s voice was drowned out by the roaring energy core, electric currents wildly raging.

In the next instant...

Rumble!!!

The terrifying energy exploded, Zhao Jiadi’s body blown apart.

Immense energy flooded the battlefield instantly.

With a flash, Jiang He pulled Lu Sheng away from the battleground, leaving the rampant energy behind.

Jiang He’s expression darkened, he never expected Zhao Jiadi’s mindset to be so twisted, trying to operate the energy core despite his broken Reaper Armor.

Now... the prosthetic couldn’t hold it, ultimately exploding.

Just like Yang Meng’s death!

"Zhao Family..."

Jiang He’s face looked grim. A student dying in the final exam was troublesome for him too.

Even though it was Zhao Jiadi’s fault, it was still unlucky.

"Continue the exam!"

Moments later, Jiang He spoke with a displeased tone, looking at the gradually calming battleground, only a pile of mechanical scraps left.

After speaking, Jiang He turned and walked out of the Martial Arts Training Hall, dialing a communication link.

"You Zhao Family... are you causing me trouble on purpose?"

The call connected, and Jiang He scolded furiously.

...

With Zhao Jiadi’s death, the atmosphere in the Martial Arts Training Hall became stifling.

After fifteen minutes of rest, Lu Sheng faced his final opponent.

Mu Bing!

The woman who had always been number one in the Martial Arts Class.

This time, however, the surrounding voices were much quieter. Although Mu Bing’s first place image was ingrained in every student’s mind,

But... the strength Lu Sheng had just displayed was so daunting that they dared not speak.

Plus, Zhao Jiadi’s death cast a shadow over their hearts.
