The presence of a grandmaster-level martial artist is long-lasting, enough to sustain a whole day of intense combat.

Even though Lv Bai had left for a while to hunt down the Death Fighter, the intensity of the battlefield hadn’t diminished in the slightest.

Bam!

A straight punch confrontation.

Lou Yunyi and Ah She briefly locked eyes before mutually pulling back their fists.

The strength between the two was almost equal. Across the entire battlefield, theirs was among the closest fights, making it hard to predict who would win until the last moment.

In other areas, the balance of battle was significantly lopsided.

Whether it was Thirteen Orphans, Noah Zorro, or Crow Captain, they were all being overwhelmed by the Commander of the Tail Island. The situation was becoming visibly clear.

Simba raised his fists high, launching a series of heavy punches that easily repelled the combined forces of Xiao Fengze and the White Eyebrow Bat King.

His pupils, dyed pitch black by [All Ink], strikingly hinted at a fierce expression.

There was no doubt; this peak of Tail Island had gradually adapted to fighting in a "blind" state. Xiao Fengze and the White Eyebrow Bat King, facing him head-on, could clearly feel the increasing strain of the battle.

The force of the punches crisscrossed, blurring sight with the dust they stirred up.

Aside from these grandmasters in fierce contention, the situation was much harsher for martial artists below the Innate level.

Looking around, many bodies were already scattered across the streets, including students from Oshima High School and members of the Nanxing Association.

The forces that came to help from various places in Chikan Bay also suffered a significant number of casualties.

Groups like the Crows, which pursued an elite system, were reduced to three or four struggling individuals.

Fortunately, this was Chikan Bay, where help from various forces kept arriving, preventing those students from Oshima High School from catching a break.

At the other end of the street, Xiao Xueyin finally arrived at the scene, leading his team of several thousand villains, and swiftly joined the fight under his command.

In a moment, blood and flesh flew, and the sounds of battle shook the sky.

"Hey! Come on!"

Simba let out a calm shout, striding towards Xiao Fengze’s location.

The combatants on their way, upon seeing Simba’s actions, discarded their weapons and retreated, cleverly allowing the grandmasters an open space.

Xiao Fengze silently lamented.

At first, when Simba was blinded by [All Ink], he and the White Eyebrow Bat King could easily suppress him and occasionally land some hits.

But Simba, worthy of being a man who climbed to the top of such a harsh place like Oshima High School, had an adaptability that exceeded Xiao Fengze’s expectations, gradually seeming unaffected at all.

The longer they fought, the tougher it became. The illusion that this opponent could become stronger during battle made it difficult for Xiao Fengze to muster his fighting spirit.

Additionally, it was now known that the military had entered Chikan Bay, and Xiao Fengze really didn’t want to continue fighting.

Suddenly, as if charging like an earthmover, Simba unexpectedly came to a stop.

His ears caught a familiar name.

"Brother Bai."

"Brother Bai!"

"Brother Bai..."

As Lv Bai and Dao Long returned to the scene, members of various forces promptly stood at attention upon noticing Lv Bai.

Even if he had only been the Speaker for less than a day, he was still the Speaker.

Lv Bai nodded kindly to the left and right: "Thank you for your hard work."

Simba suddenly turned around, locking onto a general direction: "You finally can’t hide anymore, can you!"

Seeing Simba’s wild stance, Lv Bai couldn’t help but feel a bit of sympathy, raising his hand to dispel the darkness before Simba’s retinas.

Suddenly greeted by light, Simba stubbornly resisted the sting without closing his eyes.

He quickly focused his gaze on Lv Bai, angrily rebuking: "You’re the Speaker of Chikan Bay, and all you can do is these side tricks?!"

The confrontation between the leaders of both sides gradually calmed the battlefield, as each retreated to their respective camps.

In fact, upon learning during the battle that the military had entered, not only the Chikan Bay side but also many from Oshima High School were already thinking of retreating.

But considering that one’s Speaker was absent and the other’s peak was in a frenzy, the subordinates had no choice but to keep fighting.

Now, seeing that the leaders seemed to want to communicate, even some grandmasters at the scene breathed a sigh of relief.

Unfortunately, Lv Bai did not display the conciliatory attitude that most people had imagined.

Lv Bai reached out his right hand towards Simba, a radiant and incredibly kind smile on his face.

"Be my son."

Simba: "?"

Thirteen Orphans, Xiao Fengze, and other grandmaster martial artists: "?"

Even Dao Zheng Wood, who was lying on the ground unable to get up by himself, involuntarily swallowed after hearing Lv Bai’s words.

It’s no exaggeration to say that there might have been a slim chance for a ceasefire and united resistance against the prison guards originally, but with those words, if Simba still wanted to lead Oshima High School, it was inevitably a fight to the death.

Simba seemed to lose his composure for a moment before bursting into wild laughter.

"You have guts!"

"Do you think Oshima is afraid of your Chikan Bay?"

"Brother Simba, give me a chance, and I’ll definitely twist that guy’s head off for you!"

The Oshima side’s forces immediately became excited, eager to eliminate Lv Bai, who dared to insult them.

Even if it meant losing their lives, some couldn’t stand to see Lv Bai insult their pinnacle so, and they leaped towards Lv Bai.

Unfortunately, their actions were evidently a moth to a flame.

Lv Bai merely flicked his fingers lightly, causing the ones at the front to burst into a cloud of blood mist on the spot.

This move by Lv Bai stunned everyone present.

Previously, though Chikan Bay’s elites recognized Lv Bai as the Speaker, they hadn’t fully acknowledged Lv Bai’s strength.

After all, in the eyes of grandmaster martial artists, side tricks were hard to compare with invincible strength.

However, Lv Bai didn’t use [All Ink] to conceal his actions this time, publicly blasting several martial artists apart from a distance.

As the saying goes, professionals see the details, amateurs join in the fun.

Even someone as arrogant as Simba couldn’t help but be taken aback by this scene.

He could indeed unleash energy blasts to crush some acquired martial artists but could never do so as effortlessly as Lv Bai.

This indicated that Lv Bai had reached the pinnacle, at least in using inner strength to temper his body.

Simba took a deep breath, clearing his mind of distractions.

"So you’ve finally decided to take action yourself."
