Cultivation Online-Chapter 1340 Prince Hellak

A pulsating purple aura, vibrant and ominous, shrouded Royal General Ozur's fists as he prepared to unleash a dual onslaught, hurling both fists simultaneously toward Yuan with immense killing intent.

"Spiritforged Pulse Strike!"

Upon the impact of Royal General Ozur's strike, Yuan sensed a tremendous surge of spiritual energy erupting within his body, as if it were threatening to detonate him from the inside. Yet, this intense sensation swiftly receded, and Yuan became aware of an enigmatic force within him actively quelling the chaotic energy, preventing any harm or upheaval.

[Progress: 1%]

Yuan arched an eyebrow in surprise as a progress bar materialized before him. Having missed the initial notification during his body tempering, he was unaware that his physiques were currently in the process of merging.

Nevertheless, he could discern that something profound was transpiring within his body.

"H-How are you still standing? Why are you still alive after being struck by my Spiritforged Pulse Strike?" Royal General Ozur stammered in bewilderment.

As Yuan observed Royal General Ozur, he could discern a mixture of terror and confusion etched across his face.

"How? I'm not so sure myself. Maybe it has something to do with you being a little too weak." Yuan responded with a calm smile.

"How dare you—"

"Have you not had enough yet, Ozur?" Giant Emperor Kulas suddenly spoke, instantly silencing the entire place.

"Y-Your Majesty…" Royal General Ozur had a devastated expression when he saw the look of disdain Giant Emperor Kulas was giving him.

"You have disgraced yourself today, Ozur. Not only did you break the tournament's rules, but you also tarnished your legacy with your ugly display. My disappointment is immeasurable."

Royal General Ozur fell to his knees and began shedding tears the next moment. He wanted to beg for forgiveness, but he didn't have the courage to even respond.

Giant Emperor Kulas looked at Yuan and spoke, "Since your opponent broke the rule and used a martial technique, he will automatically be disqualified, so this match is your win. However, I doubt you will be satisfied with this result."

Sure enough, he felt a twinge of disappointment that the match concluded without him being able to throw a single punch.

"What do you have in mind?" Yuan asked.

Giant Emperor Kulas' gaze suddenly shifted towards the man sitting beside him, and he spoke with a profound smile on his face, "How about a match with my oldest son? Of course, this match won't affect the tournament whether you win or lose."

"What?!" Prince Hellak exclaimed in a shocked voice.

Princess Meiya chuckled and said out loud, "I believe that's a splendid notion, father. Elder brother, since you harbor doubts about his strength, there's no better way to dispel them than experiencing it firsthand."

"Alright, I'll fight him." Yuan quickly agreed to the match.

'This bitch…!' Prince Hellak cursed inwardly after being tossed under the bus by Princess Meiya.

"Hellak, get on the stage." Giant Emperor Kulas spoke in a commanding tone.

"But father… I am a prince and the eldest in the family… How can I possibly stand on the same stage as a human?"

Giant Emperor Kulas smiled innocently and said, "The stage doesn't care about your status or birthright. It only recognizes strength. Besides, it's a friendly match and won't affect your standing as a prince."

"But—"

Giant Emperor Kulas abruptly released some of his aura, immediately silencing Prince Hellak.

"Elder brother, are you, by any chance, afraid of losing to him, a mere human…?" Princess Meiya poked him where it hurt the most— his pride.

Sure enough, when Prince Hellak heard such words, he clenched his jaw and leaped from the lofty perch of the spectators to the arena below, proving Princess Meiya's provocation effective."

"I will make you regret looking down on royalty." Prince Hellak muttered in a cold voice.

Yuan tilted his head and asked, "How did you come to that conclusion?"

Prince Hellak proclaimed, "The audacity to challenge me implies a disdainful gaze upon my stature."

"But it was your father who suggested this match. I merely agreed to it."

"Shut your mouth! That doesn't change anything!"

Yuan smiled and looked at Giant Emperor Kulas, "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion."

"Speak." Giant Emperor Kulas responded with a curious gaze.

"I ask that my opponent be allowed to employ martial techniques. If the outcome of this match holds no bearing on the tournament, we need not be bound by its regulations."

"You…" Prince Hellak had a dumbfounded look on his face after hearing Yuan's suggestion.

"Hmmm… Your words imply that only your opponent will be using martial techniques, or am I reading too much into it?" Giant Emperor Kulas inquired.

"No, you are correct. I will not be using any martial techniques."

"How dare you…" Prince Hellak's face flushed with redness after hearing this.

"While we are at it, I won't mind if he uses weapons, either." Yuan continued to speak, shocking the audience, as they had never seen such blatant disrespect towards Prince Hellak before.

"You've gone too far, you weak maggot!"

Prince Hellak released a beastly roar before charging at Yuan with a demon-like face.

'This guy's a 9th-level Divine Warrior!'

Yuan confronted Prince Hellak with a wide smile on his face.

"You'll be my warm-up before I face your father!"

"Since when did humans learn how to bark so loud? Allow me to shut your mouth for eternity!"

Yuan and Prince Hellak immediately began exchanging fists with each other.

'What a heavy punch!' Prince Hellak cried inwardly after blocking Yuan's punch for the first time.

It was just an ordinary punch, yet Prince Hellak could feel his muscles screaming in pain and his bones cracking.

Meanwhile, Yuan blocked all of Prince Hellak's strikes without any issues.

"Are my eyes deceiving me? That human is actually on par with His Highness, Prince Hellak!"

Shortly after their match commenced, the audience erupted in excitement with almost all of them cheering for Prince Hellak.

"Get him, Your Highness!"

"Show that human the power of the giant race!"

The audience, under the impression that the two fighters were evenly matched, cheered for Prince Hellak, unaware that he was actually struggling to block Yuan's overwhelming strength.
