Yatai Policy: The New Order of the Mainland

Chapter 944 The Turning Point (Part 2)

Since his consciousness and energy were sealed by Mai Wenming's powerful attack, this was the first time the fat man had used his energy-gathering technique to fight an enemy, and his opponent was a top-tier being like the Divine Power King.

He was well aware that the energy accumulated within his body had undergone a tremendous change. His internal energy, protective energy, primal energy, and purple true energy, along with some power originating from a different kind of spiritual pearl, had been reduced to zero and then forcibly combined together, covering his entire body like silk threads and running along a strange path.

The fat man felt his protective golden body had strengthened to a new level, and his physical abilities in terms of speed, solidity, explosiveness, and flexibility had reached unprecedented heights. But how should he use it? Did he need to abandon magical attacks and rely entirely on physical combat?

Reality gave him the answer. In his moment of desperation, Mai Sang had used Earth-based Barrier without thinking, only to discover that not only was the Infusion Technique usable, but it was also superior in strength and control. The difference was that the Infusion Technique, which originally relied purely on elemental energy, now incorporated many other elements.

The fat man didn't have time to analyze; all he wanted to do was use Gris as a target for his anger and to prove how powerful his new energy was.

"Vine Net!" With Mai Sang's low shout, countless vines covered in dark green slime sprouted wildly from the ground, instantly absorbing the overwhelming yellow sand onto their surface. The earth-elemental energy contained within the sand was also being devoured by the slime with crackling sounds.

"So the infamous Mai Sang and his crazy queen Capricorn are both demon enchanters that everyone wants to kill! Alas! What a pity!" Just then, Etesban's slightly regretful voice rang out, and with one sentence, he pushed the fat man into the position of public enemy number one.

At this moment, a tidal wave of emotions surged within the young commander of the three armies. He never imagined that Mai Sang could single-handedly withstand Chris's powerful attack and hold his own. The fat man's identity as a multi-elemental infusion master seemed unimportant now; the infusion technique combining poison and wood elements wasn't uncommon, but what exactly was that slimy substance that could devour an opponent's infusion power? It was utterly unheard of!

"This man must not be allowed to live!" Etesban had made up his mind to kill him and summoned one of his men to give the order to prepare for a full-scale attack.

"You know nothing! Your master, my uncle, is a magic enchanter, and my master, your uncle, is the inheritor of the magic enchanter's techniques. They have thousands upon thousands of magic experts under their command. How could a mere peripheral disciple like you possibly know anything about that? You ignorant fool..." In the midst of the fierce battle, the fat man spouted nonsense, instantly overshadowing Etesban and causing a huge uproar throughout the arena.

"My goodness... isn't this young master Mai Sang's senior master and senior brother the two great masters, Gongzhuang Deming and Dexian?"

"Could this fat man's mother be Gongzhuang Dehong? That's a top-tier magic enchanter..."

"No wonder the legend says that the higher-ups of the Inscription Master Association have a group of hidden experts under their command. Could they be the Demon Inscription Master Legion?"

"It seems all that propaganda about being sworn enemies of magic users was just a load of nonsense. Sigh, I've been completely fooled..."

"Senior brother! Take down this menace as soon as possible. If we feel that our strengths are evenly matched, I will send reinforcements to assist you!" Amid the noisy discussions, Etesban, his face ashen, shouted at Gris.

Knowing it was a provocation, the Divine Power King was still furious. He suddenly froze, his hands striking out several hand seals in quick succession, then he brought his palms together and threw a punch.

"A head-on collision? Who's afraid of who!" With his previous experience, Young Master Mai's confidence soared, and he threw out a single punch to meet the attack.

Strangely, when the two fists collided, there was no vibration. "Damn it, we've fallen for their trap!" the fat man thought to himself. He realized that the fist of the God of Strength that he saw was just an illusion due to the peak speed, while the real iron fist was already close behind.

Just as Mai Sang's fist had lost its old strength and hadn't yet generated new power, it was struck squarely by Gris's iron fist. With a muffled thud, the fat man heard the sound of his finger bones cracking, and the enormous impact sent him flying high into the air. "You, you cheated!" Young Master Mai howled in utter frustration.

The Divine Power King was even more astonished. He had already unleashed his full power in this attack, and he was confident that even Etesban wouldn't dare to directly confront its edge. Who would have thought that although this fat man had suffered some losses, he could still make a sound. "If this brat isn't killed, there will be endless trouble in the future!" Griss thought and acted swiftly, conjuring up a giant sword once more, leaping into the air, and slashing down with all his might.

The sword, sharp as a falling meteor, carried unparalleled pressure as it slashed straight towards Mai Sang's chest and abdomen. Everyone gasped in alarm as Mai Sang was about to be killed instantly.

In the split second between life and death, a white streak of light, faster than the wind and quicker than lightning, shot out from the side without warning, striking the hilt of the Divine Power King's sure-kill sword with perfect precision.

The flowing light was not a physical entity, but rather an extremely condensed and sharp golden energy enveloped in white qi!
"laugh!"

With a soft sound, Gris felt a numbness in his wrist. The fierce sword strike was deflected by that seemingly gentle tap, grazing past Mai Sang's body.

"boom!"

The fat man landed heavily, creating a large crater. "Damn it, when masters clash, he actually tries to play dirty tricks on me! This isn't over!" The guy roared, then struggled to his feet, covered in dust.

Everyone was astonished, firstly by the fat man's incredible resilience, and secondly by the fact that they wondered which expert had saved Mai Sang.

Following the direction of the light, one could see that Dai Yun, who had been slumped to the side, believed to be deeply poisoned and incapacitated, had somehow stood up. His face was still somewhat pale, but his posture was as upright as a pine tree, his eyes were clear and sharp, and a wisp of white light still lingered around his fingertips.

The old man looked at the astonished King of Power and spoke calmly, his voice steady yet carrying an undeniable power: "You murdered the leader of my ally in public, a crime unforgivable! No matter whose subordinate you are, from this moment on you are the mortal enemy of Kino!"

Dai Yun's sudden participation in the exhibition, and the fact that her strength seemed largely unaffected by the poison, dramatically changed the situation on the field.

Shenli Wang shook his slightly numb wrist, stared at Dai Yun with a look of surprise and uncertainty: "You...you're not poisoned?"

Dai Yun didn't answer, but silently adjusted his breathing. Just now, Mai Sang not only used his miraculous power to remove the poison from him, but also transferred a surge of energy containing a peculiar life force into his body. At this moment, Dai Yun's combat strength had recovered to seventy or eighty percent. And the fat man's words, "A battle today is inevitable. We cannot lose, otherwise, with the overwhelming power of the Macken, it will be difficult to turn the tide!" were deeply imprinted in the old man's mind.

The situation suddenly changed. The fat man was rescued, and Daiyun recovered, which made Dawu, a fellow in the Ruhr camp who had been watching coldly, unable to hold back any longer. His shrill voice rang out, with obvious provocation: "Hmph! They really are birds of a feather! Daiyun faked being poisoned, and Maisang used a sneak attack. Their various despicable acts are truly contemptible! What are we waiting for? If we don't seize this opportunity to wipe them out in one fell swoop, when will we ever get another chance!"

These words, like a pebble thrown into a still lake, stirred ripples once more. The experts of the Ruhr camp unconsciously glanced at Valoja, awaiting a decision. Everyone knew a chaotic battle was about to erupt; there was no room for detached observation. So, which side should they ally with? McKen or Chino?!

Just as everyone's attention was drawn to the confrontation between Daiyun and Shenliwang, and to Dawu's clamor, a beam of yellow light suddenly rose from behind Dawu, and the person in the light grabbed Dawu's arms tightly. Dawu was shocked, and before he could even utter a cry, a ghostly figure appeared before him, the sharp edge of the dagger in its hand already slicing across his throat.

"Thump!" The corpse fell to the ground.

“Chief Valoja, your subordinates are quite noisy. I’ve taken care of them for you. You’re welcome!” Uen said coldly, hooking his arm around Mai Kui, who appeared from the yellow light.

Mai Kui: Was your entrance cool enough?
