"Obstinate fool, what's the point in doing this? In the end, it's still a dead end—besides, do you really think those two can escape?" Hasten Ressenbor was also smiling, with a resigned expression, silently shaking his head and shrugging his shoulders.

"Who knows—I admit their strength is undeniable, but don't overlook their agility."

"Alright, alright, I get it." Hasten Ressenbor gestured for Sky Shadow to quiet down, saying, "I also admit that the masked ninja can teleport in an extraordinary manner, but do you think she has a chance to use that ability in front of seven people?"

"You're wrong again."

"Wrong again?"

"Yes, her strength isn't just about her ability, and in terms of speed, I have absolute confidence that she can easily shake off the remaining seven."

"Hehehe…" Hasten Ressenbor let out an unrestrained laugh, "Who gave you such confidence? She can shake off seven people at the same time?"

"What do you think of my speed."

As he spoke, the void mysteriously produced a series of whooshing sounds of ripping through the air, and in an instant, Sky Shadow's high-speed figure appeared continuously at a radius of 200 meters from Hasten Ressenbor, and he himself seemed to stand still, instantly returning to his original position with a speed that was difficult for the naked eye to follow.

"Your speed, I would say is passable at best."

"Let me be frank with you, even at such a speed, you couldn't even touch the hem of her garment, do you think those seven pieces of trash have a chance to catch up with Mengdie..."

What!? Hasten Ressenbor suddenly realized, indeed Sky Shadow's speed in his eyes wasn't considered fast, but people are different from one another, when compared to the seven Cantelu warriors, at best, they were the same.

According to his statement, if this speed couldn't even touch the hem of the masked ninja, then she indeed had the strength to easily shake off seven people.

Without saying much, Hasten Ressenbor didn't bother with Sky Shadow any longer; he turned and headed straight in the direction of Mengdie, despite not knowing why the man led him away, he realized that the woman was definitely more important than the bastard before him, seemingly harboring some secrets he didn't know.

Sky Shadow had long anticipated Hasten Ressenbor would do this; he had even simulated the opponent's next second of actions in advance, intercepting in a flash, and with a burst of energy, he entered combat mode, "Where are you going, your opponent is me."

"Overestimating yourself." Hasten Ressenbor genuinely found Sky Shadow's actions foolish, his face quickly contorting into a vicious scowl, swinging his fist to deliver a booming blow.

So fast!

Sky Shadow quickly raised his hands to block, changing from fist to palm to deflect.

Boom!

At the moment of contact, the space dramatically shook, and Sky Shadow felt his blood churn throughout his body, as if struck by a thousand-pound boulder. It was just one punch, and perhaps not even Hasten Ressenbor's full strength, but Sky Shadow was sent flying backwards.

Hasten Ressenbor was obviously not interested in Sky Shadow, his only thought was the more he was intercepted, the more it proved that the masked ninja was indeed the key figure.

Unexpectedly, as he passed by, a great force transmitted from his ankle, locked by the trash behind him, pulling him backward, and Hasten Ressenbor's body was shot back in an indescribable physical angle, as he was flung by Sky Shadow...

The most annoying thing was this kind of dead trash, not biting but nevertheless irritating, Hasten Ressenbor's face grew increasingly grim, "I see you have a death wish."

"It's you who should be dying." Sky Shadow responded undauntedly.

"Hehehe… to think an insignificant piece of trash has a talent for jokes—that's fine, I'll deal with you first."

Indeed, if the masked ninja really had the speed described by Sky Shadow, any delay of three or two seconds would basically make it impossible to catch up. In this vast star domain, once someone hides their aura, no matter how powerful you are, it's hard to find a target out of sight, let alone catch up. The golden opportunity to chase the masked ninja lasts only the brief seconds when Sky Shadow is making noise.

Seeing the seconds wasted, Hasten Ressenbor decisively decided to abandon the pursuit and turned to dealing with Sky Shadow instead.

Thinking this, he simply gave up on Mengdie, saying, "I bet you'll regret your choice today."

"Bring it on," Sky Shadow lowered his center of gravity, fully focused and ready to burst out, and at the same time, gestured to Hasten Ressenbor to come at him with a beckoning hand.

Seeing the gesture, Hasten Ressenbor could not help but laugh in extreme anger. When his rage peaked, he started laughing instead of seething, "Hahaha, go ahead and make your move, let me test your strength. I will give you a hundred moves."

A hundred moves? What a joke! Even Sky Shadow couldn't help but feel a sense of contradiction at Hasten Ressenbor's words, knowing that even the obsessive-compulsive Cantelu warrior simply allowed Kexiao two moves and got beaten to the point of spitting blood, and yet Hasten Ressenbor was claiming to give him a hundred.

"What, not daring to attack?"

As he spoke, Hasten Ressenbor suddenly turned his body away, his back to Sky Shadow, in an extremely arrogant posture, not deigning to glance at him. It was the best response to Sky Shadow's beckoning.

After all, Sky Shadow was a top fighter, and being ignored like this instantly filled him with a sense of belittlement and anger, "Don't move."

With that said, and a whoosh of air, Sky Shadow's entire body was instantly enveloped by a terrifying pressure, and with a burst of speed, he lunged into the void, his form shifting continuously. This was his strongest strike, and in that instant, Sky Shadow was like a thunderbolt, faster than a bullet, and his lightning-fast knee strike fiercely hit Hasten Ressenbor's unprotected face.

Puchi!

A whirlwind instantly formed around them, Whoosh! Stones shattered, and the surrounding grass and trees were all blown away by the aftermath of that knee strike.

However, Hasten Ressenbor's head only tilted 30 degrees from the momentum of the attack—just 30 degrees—before it forcefully twisted back to face Sky Shadow, "Is this your strongest attack?"

"Impossible!"

Sky Shadow was in a state of incomprehensible contradiction. Just now, the other party really hadn't made any defensive moves, just stood there, not moving an inch.

And his attack had accurately hit the target, yet the result was just this—rather than describing it as hitting Hasten Ressenbor, it was more like his head was forcibly nudged by inertia.

Hasten Ressenbor gave his sincere evaluation, his tone subtly containing a hint of praise, "This attack was indeed not bad, it at least made me feel some power, like a piece of trash forcibly pushing me."

"That last attack, it did hit you."

Hasten Ressenbor shrugged his shoulders, neither confirming nor denying Sky Shadow's words, "Your analysis is very accurate, befitting of a top warrior. Come on, our mighty warrior, please continue your performance."

Ah, what...?

Sky Shadow was momentarily stupefied...

"What, not continuing the fight?"

"Don't underestimate me."

With that, Sky Shadow twisted his neck and moved his shoulders, his bones crackling with a robust crack.

"Heh!"

With a howl echoing through the valley, suddenly, his personal power index was soaring at a terrifying speed. At this moment, the veins in Sky Shadow's body were fully bulging as if bracing for a Maximal Outburst, even the lingering clouds in the sky were scattered by the climbing momentum.

At this moment, the invisible aura spreading from Sky Shadow's body had reached thousands of kilometers away, the ground continuously cracked, and the stones told a fact that Sky Shadow's personal power index had reached a terrifying realm beyond human limits. Even the solid ground was trembling as the combat power index soared.

A halo of light gradually emerged around Sky Shadow's body, turning him into a golden figure.
