The tactical channel on the prison guard side was filled with shouting of all sizes, never ceasing.

Snipers stationed at various vantage points were equipped with tungsten armor-piercing bullets capable of threatening Grandmaster Martial Artists.

However, they did not specifically aim at Thirteen Orphans and Ah She, these Grandmasters.

After all, if they couldn’t guarantee a hit, it was better to reduce the number of Red Sticks and officers as much as possible first.

Thirteen Orphans took advantage of the chaos to break into the prison guards’ line, clearing out personnel around an armored vehicle amid the rain of bullets, crouching atop the vehicle.

He glanced around, feeling a lingering fear.

"Truly tragic."

Not letting him idle long, several Senior Prison Guards joined forces to pounce on him.

Thirteen Orphans reluctantly rubbed his forehead, compelled to face the challenge.

The situation for the other Grandmasters was not much different from his; temporarily, there was no significant life-threatening danger.

Swish~

The piercing sound created by Misa Prison Warden’s sprint was exceptionally sharp.

Facing the rapidly approaching Misa Prison Warden, Lv Bai didn’t say much more.

He seized the opportunity to use [Flash Time] and preemptively swung a fist aiming at Misa’s head.

In the eyes of others, only a muffled explosive sound was heard, followed by the sight of Misa Prison Warden, who had been lunging at Lv Bai, flying backward even faster.

No surprises here; [Flash Time] itself is a typical ability where the stronger the user, the more exaggerated the effect.

Lv Bai had previously found opportunities to knock Misa unconscious using [Flash Time]. Now, after refining his body with Inner Strength, facing Misa would be even easier.

Boom!!!

Misa Prison Warden, resembling a cruise missile, pierced through several buildings before coming to a stop.

One of the four-story residential buildings seemed to have been struck on a load-bearing wall, collapsing instantly, raising a cloud of dust.

The battle between Lv Bai and Misa ended at a speed beyond most people’s imagination, inevitably leaving them stunned.

Even the fiercely heated battle seemed to visibly cool down a bit.

Monsters of the Top Grandmaster level are best dealt with by Grandmasters.

Attempting to grind them down with sheer numbers, even if victorious, the losses would be immeasurable.

Because of this, the Senior Prison Guards leading the prison guard side couldn’t help but turn their attention to the remaining two Prison Area Chiefs.

In terms of top combat power for the prison guards present, there were only the three of them. Misa Prison Warden couldn’t even withstand one encounter before being knocked away, leaving the guards hoping for Hyde and Hong Zhu.

Yet when Hong Zhu saw the scene of Lv Bai knocking Misa away, he widened his eyes and instinctively blurted out.

"Worthy of the oldest sly fox, at least put on a show?"

He hadn’t personally faced off against Lv Bai, so his first reaction was to assume Misa was slacking.

Hyde’s mouth twitched: "Not necessarily, that guy named Lv Bai does have some peculiar techniques, the Prison Director needs to come personally."

"I’m already here."

A voice abruptly reached Hyde Prison Warden’s ears.

Yet it was hard to pinpoint exactly from which direction it came.

Fortunately, Bear Chief Warden didn’t leave Hyde bewildered for long.

Because upon his appearance, the aura he exhibited was impossible to ignore.

He didn’t even make a move, merely strolling leisurely, as if wandering in his own garden.

Yet that intangible pressure, still capable of penetrating space, was felt by everyone on the scene.

The heavy oppressive feeling left some Acquired Martial Artists struggling for breath.

Incredibly powerful, merely appearing on scene without even speaking, the battle gradually slowed down.

Simba, who had been knocked down by Lv Bai earlier, covered his forehead, struggling to stand up: "Bear Chief Warden..."

"Even he came?"

Regardless of which faction they were from, everyone could recognize Bear Chief Warden.

White Eyebrow Bat King remained calm while dueling Simba, but upon seeing Bear Chief Warden, even his expression turned grave.

No one would doubt Bear Chief Warden’s strength, renowned as the strongest Grandmaster.

"The battle with Dao Ming Temple was quite enlightening, I’ve had some insight, and wish to exchange with you all."

Bear nonchalantly spoke, while casually unbuttoning his shirt collar: "I hope everyone..."

Bear Chief Warden’s eyes sharpened, releasing an exceptionally domineering aura.

"Can aid me in crossing that line!"

The moment this terrifying pressure was fully unleashed, the battlefield, numbering in the tens of thousands, fell into a deathly silence.

Bear stood there, like an insurmountable peak, exuding the terrifying pressure expected of a ruler at the pinnacle of Martial Artists.

Under such terrifying aura, Acquired Martial Artists didn’t even have the courage to clench their fists, as even Innate Martial Artists appeared too frightened to speak.

As for those thugs who hadn’t even crossed the threshold of Martial Artists, their minds blanked out, many instinctively gaping in awe.

But what surprised Lv Bai wasn’t this domineering aura.

It was the mechanical prompt sound echoing in his mind, capturing his attention.

[Ding!]

[Current Death Arena Node emerged.]

[The Death Fighter who secures the Node will obtain double points reward]

[Real-time location for the Node established. (Click to view)]

He opened the Node location map, repeatedly comparing it.

It’s certain, this time the "Node" was on Bear Chief Warden himself, or more precisely, Bear himself.

"This... this is impossible!"

Simba suddenly roared in fury.

He had to admit that he felt a trace of fear in Bear Chief Warden’s presence.

He could accept being unable to defeat Bear, after all, he grudgingly acknowledged Bear’s title as the strongest Grandmaster.

But what he couldn’t accept was how vast the gap between himself and Bear was.

This power was far beyond typical opponents of the same level, more like Bear had stepped into a realm higher than a Grandmaster.

He frantically pushed aside Ah She standing before him, rushing towards Bear, his fist swinging in rage.

Unfortunately, Bear casually raised his right hand.

With just one punch, accompanied by that agonizing creaking sound in the air, Simba, the pinnacle of Oshima High School, was helplessly knocked away.

Simba crashed heavily onto an office building, causing countless cracks to spread across the wall, collapsing instantly.

In that brief moment of daze, everyone saw that when Bear swung his punch, there seemed to be white cracks flashing across the air.

Bear’s casual punch stunned everyone present.

Including the prison guard side, they also felt a strong sense of disbelief.

Grandmaster Martial Artists...

Could they really be this powerful?!

Even Lv Bai couldn’t help but wonder; according to the Body Forging Technique, the Grandmaster realm should indeed be the limit of human ability.
