We agreed on mecha combat, so what the hell is this about your physical body exploding into a planet

"How...how is this possible?!"

The audience could hardly believe their eyes as Ye Yan crawled out of the ruins and crushed the abyss monster with a single hand.

Even the three elders stood up together.

The three elders were shocked by what they saw.

It should be noted that abyssal monsters, though called living beings, have bodies that have transcended the scope of carbon-based life forms.

Its body is as hard as steel; otherwise, it would have been impossible for it to defeat the mech pilot.

But now.

What did they see?

How can a human easily crush the head of an abyss monster with just one hand?

"Could he be a practitioner of ancient martial arts?"

The so-called ancient martial artists are a group of people who use the power of the abyss to forge their physical bodies, abandon the cultivation of spiritual power, and rely solely on their physical bodies to resist abyssal demons, their bodies as stiff as mecha.

However, such people are rare.

Furthermore, they had never heard of any ancient martial arts master with such strength in Tianhai City!

This physical strength is already approaching the peak of the second tier!

No, even above that!

However, the image on the screen clearly told everyone what was happening.

This is real.

"Did you really create a miracle?"

Lin Shuang looked at Ye Yan, who had climbed out of the ruins, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"What's the use of getting up?" Chen Tianhao gritted his teeth.

Couldn't this guy just die like that?

"That's right, we're still in the assessment stage. A mech pilot without a mech is useless."

Su Wanqing's expression was very unpleasant.

Everyone understood this.

but.

Click!

The scene before them shattered their worldview once again.

All I saw was...

The outstretched hand crushed the head of the abyss monster.

That's right, just crush it!

What violence!

What power!

The next moment, that hand braced itself on the ground and pushed hard.

boom!

Ye Yan stood up from the ruins.

At this moment, Ye Yan's bare upper body was covered with scars, including abrasions, burns, and cuts, totaling more than a dozen.

Fresh blood seeped from the wound, flowing down the muscle fibers.

The intense pain almost made Ye Yan lose his balance.

But as the echoing voice in his mind rang out, Ye Yan suddenly felt that none of this mattered anymore.

[Your mech is shattered; the power 'Knights Never Die Bare-Handed' is activated.]

[The power you absorbed from the mech's destruction is amplifying this energy a hundredfold.]

[Based on the mech's maximum attack power: 1347, your strength, speed, and constitution will temporarily increase the mech's maximum attack power by 100 times.]

[Three-dimensional attributes: Strength increased by 134700. Speed ​​increased by 134700. Constitution increased by 134700]

[The damaged mech contains a special affix component; acquiring the affix for that component is in progress.]

Congratulations! You have obtained the Suzaku core keyword "Limit Breakthrough"

The moment the words were spoken.

A five-figure physique came into play at this moment.

Those wounds are healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Something is glowing under the skin.

It started as a pale blue-white, then grew brighter and brighter, until its entire body began to glow.

The light spread beneath his skin like blood vessels, from his chest to his shoulders, from his shoulders to his arms, and from his arms to his fingertips.

A newly awakened, burning force that was about to burst him apart.

Ye Yan slowly raised her head, her eyes no longer dark brown, but bright red.

It wasn't a bloodshot red, but a burning red, like magma deep in the Earth's core, like the core of a supernova explosion.

His gaze pierced through the screen, through the spatial barriers of the secret realm, as if looking at everyone in the hall.

Then, he looked down at his feet.

A monster from the abyss.

The only one of the thirteen on the third floor to survive the explosion.

He was lying on the ground, barely alive.

Half of its body was blown away.

But he was still alive, still struggling, still staring in terror at the "human" in front of him with his only remaining eye.

Is this even human?

Isn't it said that humans are a weak race that only knows how to hide in their shells?

Why is his body so terrifying!

Ye Yan squatted down.

His movements were slow and deliberate, like a cat toying with its dying prey.

Extend your right hand.

Spread your five fingers.

Then, gently and slowly, he grasped the monster's face.

His palm covered the monster's entire face, his fingers digging into the gaps in its exoskeleton.

The monster let out its final, desperate cry.

"congratulations."

Ye Yan spoke.

The sound was very soft, but it was clearly transmitted to every corner of the hall through the still-functioning fragments of a communicator in the ruins.

"My limiter has been removed."

Click.

Tighten your fingers.

The sound of the exoskeleton cracking was like crushing dry twigs.

Black blood gushed from between his fingers, splattering onto Ye Yan's arms, chest, and face.

But he did not close his eyes.

Those bright red eyes shone like two fallen stars in the black blood mist.

The monster's head shattered in his hand, and its corpse slumped to the ground.

Ye Yan stood up.

He stood in the center of the charred crater, with the remains of the "Skinner" at his feet and the corpses of thirty monsters around him. His body was burning with blue and white light, and his pupils reflected bright red flames.

"Come on, let's continue with the second phase."

There were over three hundred people in the hall, but not a single person spoke.

On the holographic screen, Ye Yan is carrying out a massacre.

No, that can't be called a battle.

A battle is a duel between two sides, a back-and-forth contest.

And what is happening before our eyes—

It was a massacre.

A pure, one-sided, and irrational massacre.

Ye Yan stood in the center of the charred crater, his bare upper body burning with blue and white light, his bright red eyes dazzling under the purple lightning.

But there are more than thirty monsters in the secret realm.

Hell mode is called hell mode because it doesn't give you a chance to breathe.

The second wave will spawn ten seconds after the first wave of thirty monsters is cleared.

And now.

The ground began to shake.

On the distant horizon, countless black dots appeared.

Not dozens, but hundreds.

They surged in from all directions, like a black tide, overwhelming everything.

"The second wave... 120 of them."

The technicians at the assessment center reported the numbers with trembling voices.

"This includes three A-level elites."

Someone in the hall gasped.

One hundred and twenty.

Including the first batch of thirty, there are a total of one hundred and fifty.

This is hell mode.

It's not about pushing your limits, but about showing you what despair truly means.

And Ye Yan.

There are no mechs.

No weapons.

No armor.

There was nothing there.

There was only a battered body that had just crawled out of the explosion.

And the power that was burning within that body, amplified a hundredfold.

"He's going to die," someone whispered.

brush!

However, the very next second after he spoke, Ye Yan's figure vanished.

When he reappeared, he held the head of an abyssal monster in his hand.

"Grass!"

"monster!"
