Beggar Cultivation System-Chapter 318: Dozens Techniques

"W-what… are you?" Kuo asked with a gulp.

"I am the one who's going to beat you up and sleep with your mom!" Apollo smirked, raising his hand before slapping Kuo across the face.

Kuo's face twisted upon impact, saliva and blood flying through the air as his body crashed into the ground, kicking up dirt and dust clouds.

The Water Chains and the Great Serpent head, with its mouth wide open and water torrents flowing out, dispersed into light blue particles of light.

Surrounded by these firefly-like particles, Apollo raised his hands and examined his body. Seeing the scales covering his forearm, he couldn't help but smile in amazement.

This is flashy… and cool, the beggar thought.

He conjured a simple water mirror to see his reflection and was even more amazed.

Deep blue, slitted eyes resembling those of a snake or dragon, blue scales covering parts of his body, and the haze surrounding him that added to his mysteriousness—Apollo had never felt cooler in his life.

Transforming to power up oneself—it was something every man dreamed of. In his previous life, there were countless movies and TV shows where the main character faced a tough opponent, only to transform into a stronger form, like the one with the spiky black hair that turned gold.

Now, Apollo had achieved the same thing, though it was all thanks to the Great Serpent Ascendant Transformation Technique and not some life-or-death struggle that unlocked hidden potential. Although his current progress was only at the beginner stage, the effects were beyond what he had imagined.

Apollo had been holding off on using this transformation, saving it for the right moment. Fortunately, Kuo had given him the perfect opportunity.

After checking himself out in the water mirror a few more times, he waved his hand, turning the water into a puddle that fell to the ground. He then turned his gaze toward the dissipating dust cloud, where Kuo was already back on his feet.

Apollo didn't want the fight to end too soon, so he suppressed the pressure that had immobilized Kuo and prevented him from using his water techniques.

Kuo must have realized this, as he glared at Apollo with a mixture of frustration and fear.

Now, what Techniques should I try? Apollo thought. He decided to test some of the techniques he had revised and derived over time. Hmm… why not try them all?

With that in mind, Apollo used a Movement Technique called Vanishing Dri– Mirage, a combination of his Simple Movement Technique, Hydra Mirage, and other techniques he had studied in the Great Serpent Library.

His body vanished and reappeared in front of Kuo. Unlike before, his speed had increased so much that Kuo didn't even realize Apollo was standing in front of him.

"F*ck!" Kuo cursed in surprise, jumping back hurriedly.

"Haha, you're afraid," Apollo chuckled. Narrowing his eyes at Kuo, he smirked. "Where's your confidence now?"

Hearing the mockery, Kuo could only grit his teeth. He admitted it now—his opponent was strong. A worthy foe.

But he couldn't allow himself to be defeated by this country bumpkin! Not in front of everyone watching, especially his Master!

Fck! Fck! Why am I even afraid of this beggar? That must have been a trick! I can move now! Yeah, a trick to scare me off!

Kuo calmed himself as this thought surfaced in his mind.

After taking a deep breath, he summoned his Water Chains and the Great Serpent head once more, activating a technique to enhance his strength.

"A trick. This is all just a trick to scare me off. An illusion!" Kuo shouted, clenching his fists in anger. "You got me! But that's all you can do!"

This kid needs his head checked, Apollo sighed. "You are right, it's just a trick."

Hearing this, Kuo's eyes lit up. I knew it! There's no need for me to be scared!

"Haha! I'm right!" Kuo laughed, his face turning red with fury. I will kill him… or else this will become a demon to my cultivation!

Kuo couldn't afford to lose again. He had already been defeated by this beggar kid back on the training ground, and he wouldn't let it happen a second time.

Thinking this, his killing intent erupted as he prepared himself. To ensure victory, he activated another technique, one that temporarily enhanced his strength by at least twofold. Combined with the techniques he was already using, his power surged to an entirely new level.

Normally, he wouldn't risk this, but with his Master's assistance, there was nothing to fear. Although he didn't understand how the beggar kid had stopped his body and attacks earlier, Kuo wasn't going to take any chances. He had finally learned his lesson.

As he activated the technique, an array formation appeared, enclosing his body. Covered in bright, glowing patterns, a newfound strength coursed through him.

"You shall regret offending me! I will kill you!" Kuo declared coldly.

"Then come!" Apollo taunted, raising his hand and pointing at his opponent.

"Die!" Kuo roared, his body becoming a blur as he reappeared in front of Apollo.

However, Apollo had turned into mist.

Seeing this, Kuo wasn't alarmed—he had expected it. With a smirk, he turned around, his fist ready, flanked by the Water Chains and the Great Serpent head.

But what he saw next froze him in place. Not because of that strange force—it was gone now. This time, he stopped for an entirely different reason.

A cold shiver ran down his spine, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably with fear.

Dozens of Battle Techniques were aimed at him. Dozens! Fire techniques, wind techniques, even water techniques, all pointed directly at him.

They took various forms—some resembling the Water Blade Disintegration Technique but with fire and wind swirling around the water blades. There was also a massive, glowing ball of light, much larger than the one the beggar kid had used earlier. Spears, swords, and other shapes floated menacingly.

Chaotic winds, roaring flames, blizzards of lightning and ice. There was even a three-headed Great Serpent with a body made of all four elements!

"Think of this as another trick," Apollo said with a cold smile, floating in the middle of the overwhelming array of techniques.
