nChapter 16

nThe scar-faced man lowered his head and looked at the upper half of his arm that had fallen to the ground in shock.

nHis arm was cut off by a rookie?

n“How… How is this possible? Brother Liao’s arm couldn’t even be pierced by ordinary small-caliber bullets, but that rookie actually cut it off with his bare hands?”

n“Damn it, he’s using a D-rank combat technique, the Curved Hand Blade, but is it that powerful?”

nMany fallen martial artists looked at the scene in front of them in shock.

n“Mastery Realm Curved Hand Blade? No, it doesn’t have such power… Could it be the Perfection Realm Curved Hand Blade?”

nThe scar-faced man assessed Chu Zhou’s Curved Hand Blade’s realm in his heart, his expression extremely solemn.

nHe did not expect to meet a pervert like Chu Zhou today.

nA rookie, still wet behind his ears, had actually cultivated a D-rank combat technique to a realm that he could not understand.

n“I’m very curious. How did your hands become like this?”

nChu Zhou said calmly and walked towards the scar-faced man step by step.

n“You want to know the answer? Ask in hell!”

nThe scar-faced man smiled sinisterly. His other intact arm suddenly grabbed the broken cement pillar beside him.

nWith a loud bang, the cement pillar that was half as thick as an arm was forcefully extracted from the ground.

nHe swung the cement pillar violently and smashed towards Chu Zhou.

nThere was an explosion.

nA hurricane swept across the entire hall, bringing with it a handful of dust.

nLiu Qianqian’s face turned pale when she saw the violent scene.

nShe knew that she could not block such an attack.

nShe would have been smashed into meat paste if the scar-faced man had attacked her.

nHowever, Chu Zhou’s expression remained calm. He walked towards the scar-faced man and instantly sped up.

nHis palms were like peerless sabers that were suddenly unsheathed, slashing out scarlet arcs.

nChing ching ching.

nThe heavy cement pillar crashed down, cut into dozens of pieces in the blink of an eye and scattered everywhere.

nThe cement pillar in the scar-faced man’s hand disappeared in the blink of an eye.

nOnly a piece the size of a face plate was left in his hand.

nHis expression changed drastically, and he chose to retreat decisively.

nUnfortunately, it was too late.

nChu Zhou chased after him. His hands and his legs were knives, and there were knives everywhere. Sharp and white arcs enveloped the scar-faced man at the same time.

nThe scar-faced man’s figure suddenly stopped.

nChu Zhou also stopped and looked at the scar-faced man quietly.

nLines of blood appeared on the scar-faced man’s neck, feet, legs, waist, and other places.

nIn the next moment, the scar-faced man’s entire body split into pieces and fell to the ground.

n“Is this the power of an Intent Realm Curved Hand Blade? So powerful!”

nLiu Qianqian’s jaw dropped.

n“Run, run away quickly…”

nThe remaining seven fallen martial artists looked at their boss, Brother Liao, who was actually cut into pieces by Chu Zhou like raw pork.

nThey had almost peed in their pants.

nThey quickly rushed to jump off the building in their escape.

nA sword appeared as soon as they did that.

nThe sword was as fast as lightning and also ruthless.

nIn less than three breaths, the seven fallen martial artists were all beheaded.

nHeadless corpses spurted out blood like spring water.

nA young man with silver hair and a cold expression, like an ancient swordsman, appeared in Chu Zhou and Liu Qianqian’s line of sight.

nHe was, without a doubt, the person who beheaded the seven fallen martial artists.

n“Ling Zhan from the First High School… Why is he here?”

nLiu Qianqian recognized the person and exclaimed softly.

n“Could it be that he’s also carrying out a mission nearby?” Chu Zhou’s eyes revealed a trace of confusion.

nLing Zhan walked past the seven corpses. His gaze landed on the pieces of meat that was the scar-faced man with a trace of regret in his eyes.

n“I wanted him to test my sword when I found out that there was a mutant here… Unfortunately, I was a step too late and he was killed!”

nHe sighed softly and shifted his gaze to Chu Zhou.

n“I didn’t expect someone like you hidden among the third-year students of Jiang City. You actually managed to cultivate a D-rank combat technique to the Intent Realm forcefully.”

n“Interesting. Looks like this Elite Trial will not be boring after all. I’ll wait for you in the Elite Trial!”

nWith that, he turned around and walked to the edge of the building before jumping down.

n“Wow, Chu Zhou, Ling Zhan actually challenged you.” Liu Qian Qian said in shock. “Ling Zhan is the top amongst the three monsters of the First High School. I heard that he has always been cold and arrogant. He doesn’t even take the other two monsters of the First High School seriously.”

n“He actually challenged you… Heavens, this means that he treats you as a formidable opponent.”

n“If this news gets out, I’m afraid all the third-year students in Jiang City will be in an uproar.”

n“A challenge? Interesting…” Chu Zhou smiled. A trace of battle intent surged in his heart.

nHis expectations for the elite trial became even greater after he achieved the Intent Realm for his Curved Hand Blade.

nPreviously, his goal was to enter the top three of the elite trial and obtain the genetic potion.

nNow, his goal has changed.

nHe wanted to be first!

n“Liu Qianqian!” Chu Zhou glanced at the scar-faced man’s corpse and suddenly shouted.

n“What’s the matter?” Liu Qianqian looked at Chu Zhou in confusion.

n“I don’t want to reveal my strength for the time being. Please help to cover up the matter here. Don’t say that I killed this scar-faced man. Just say that it was Ling Zhan who killed him!” Chu Zhou said.

nThe genetic potion was related to whether he could successfully open the genetic lock, awaken his genetic power, and advance to an Awakening Realm Martial Artist.

nTherefore, while it might not affect him much even if his strength was exposed, he still chose to be more cautious before successfully obtaining the genetic potion.

nHe did not want any trouble that could come with exposing his strength!

nHe did not value reputation that much.

nHe only valued tangible benefits.

n“You want to continue hiding your strength?” Liu Qian Qian revealed a surprised expression, “The scar-faced man is obviously the leader of this stronghold. Killing him will be a huge contribution. You’re giving it to Ling Zhan just like that?”

n“Sure! I don’t care.” Chu Zhou said calmly.

nLiu Qianqian was speechless.

nShe did not understand why Chu Zhou was so obsessed with hiding his strength. He even gave such a huge contribution to others in order to hide his strength.

nShe would not be able to do it if she was in his shoes.

nIf it were Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan, they would probably want to spread the news everywhere and let the entire world know.

n“Alright! I agree. However, Ling Zhan also saw you kill the scar-faced man… If he wants to tell the truth, then there’s nothing I can do.”

n“It’s fine. He probably can’t be bothered to tell anyone about this… If he does, then so be it.”

nAfter Chu Zhou heard Liu Qianqian’s agreement, he began to search the bodies of the scar-faced man and the other seven fallen warriors.

nHow could he not loot the corpses of monsters he killed?

nUnfortunately, the scar-faced man and the seven fallen martial artists did not have much cash on them. They only had a little more than 10,000 Alliance Dollars.

nThey did have bank cards on them, but Chu Zhou did not know the password. Even if he knew the password, there would be verification with fingerprints before he could withdraw the money.

nIf the withdrawal amount was large, verification had to be done through genetic information.

nIn other words, these bank cards were useless to him.

nHe casually threw them on the ground.

n“There’s still meat on a mosquito, no matter how small it is!”

nChu Zhou happily stuffed the cash he found into his pocket.

nHe wasn’t afraid that Officer Gao Jun and the others would find out.

nBefore the operation, Gao Jun had told them that the things on the fallen martial artist would belong to them if they killed them during the operation.

nOf course, if the items of fallen martial artists were important, such as more important clues and evidence…

nThe police would confiscate these items and compensate them in monetary terms.

nLiu Qianqian did not say anything when she saw Chu Zhou pocket the money.

nThe credit belonged to Chu Zhou.

nMoreover, she was not short of money.

nChu Zhou and Liu Qianqian went behind the blackout cloth to search the place.

nThey found the body of an adult male with shards of glass embedded in his body. It was the body Chu Zhou had seen earlier.

nIn addition to this corpse, they also found two unconscious female students inside.

n“These fallen martial artists are indeed capturing students. What are they trying to do?” Liu Qianqian looked at the two female students with a furious expression.

nFortunately, these two female students were only unconscious and were not injured.

n“Let’s wait for Officer Gao Jun and the others to handle the rest.”

nChu Zhou said.

n“Mm!” Liu Qian Qian nodded. Suddenly, she looked in the direction of Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan with disgust and said, “Then, how should we deal with those two scum?”

n“We’ll also let Officer Gao Jun and the others handle them. We’ll tell them what they did.”

nChu Zhou said expressionlessly.

nHe felt that it was a pity.

nIf only the scar-faced man had killed these two when he stepped on them just now.

nLiu Qianqian was beside him, and Ling Zhan had also been here before, so it was not good for him to kill these two.

nOtherwise, today would be their death anniversary.

nHowever, it did not matter. There was still a chance during the elite trial.

nThey have nowhere to hide.

n“Chu Zhou, Liu Qianqian, it’s good that you’re fine!”

nOfficer Gao Jun and the others arrived. They heaved a sigh of relief seeing how Chu Zhou and Liu Qianqian were fine.

nHowever, they all gasped when they saw the scar-faced man and the headless corpses of the seven fallen warriors.

n“Chu Zhou, Liu Qianqian… Did you kill these people?”

nOfficer Gao Jun said in shock, his pupils constricted slightly especially when he saw the scar-faced man’s arm that looked like the hand of a monster.

nOf course, he knew how terrifying mutants like the scar-faced man were.

nChu Zhou and Liu Qianqian had actually killed the scar-faced man. This was unbelievable.

n“Officer Gao Jun, you’ve misunderstood. We didn’t kill these people… It was Ling Zhan from the First High School. He just appeared here…”

nChu Zhou “explained”.

n“Oh, he was killed by Ling Zhan from the First High School… That makes sense.”

nOfficer Gao Jun and the others revealed expressions of understanding.

nThey had heard of Ling Zhan, the genius monster of the First High School.

nThey also believed that Ling Zhan could kill a mutant like the scar-faced man.

n“What about them? What happened?”

nOfficer Gao Jun’s face darkened when he looked at the unconscious Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan.

nHe hated people who were self-righteous and refused to listen to instructions.

n“Officers, this is what happened…”

nLiu Qianqian told him everything that Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan had done bluntly.

nOfficer Gao Jun and the others’ faces turned even darker. They did not expect Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan to be so afraid of death. Not only did they choose to join the enemy, they even wanted to take down their teammates and give them to the enemy in order to survive.

n“Cuff them and bring them back. The commander will deal with them.”

nTwo police officers walked coldly to Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan’s side. They directly cuffed the owners with alloy handcuffs and lifted them up.

nTwo more police officers carried the two unconscious female students out.

n“This operation is over… I will report your contributions to the commander.”

n“Let’s go back to the police station!”

nGao Jun brought everyone downstairs as he spoke!
