Chapter 519: Chapter 515: Cognitive Bias

Tang Luo was unconcerned about the duel, but the warriors who had been sitting idly all day were intrigued. The first group of warriors who finished training in the east extended their necks in anticipation, following the two figures with their eyes, creating an amusing situation for Tang Luo.

“Next one step forward.” Tang Luo instructed to the man behind Wu Tianliang, wanting to quickly go through the crowd. He had no idea how long Hua Ji’s memory could last, so he had to expedite the process. Any unnecessary delay that made Hua Ji forget would be heartrending. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Tang Luo’s words refocused the warriors. The second one stepped forward.

Hua Ji took a glance and whispered to Tang Luo, “This is Jiang Fei, code name 528.5.”

Looking at the 829.5 number floating above the man’s head, Tang Luo neutrally said, “Go to Master Ou’s camp at the Hump in the east. He will arrange your following work.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fei simply responded with an “Oh” and turned around to leave. He lacked the arrogance to question Tang Luo’s decision. From the moment he sold himself for a piece of bread, he had accepted his new reality.

Yet his repeated backward glances betrayed his discontent. He had no idea what to expect from Master Ou at the eastern hump, but he was sure it wasn’t a place where he could enjoy spiritual food every meal. Fighting even to have enough to eat every day would be a better situation than the one at Master Ou’s, and for this Jiang Fei regretted not training more diligently. It was pitiful how he, at the prime of his life at the age of 27 or 28, had not even reached the Mortal Realm.

Leaving Jiang Fei aside, Wu Tianliang and Wu Mi’s battle has already started. Coming from the same lower-class background, they both fought brutally and without restraint.

Like lions giving their all to hunt rabbits, the street brawlers always fought desperately, as their victories and defeats are always within one strike. Each stroke they cast was their deadliest and most confident one, aiming to kill with a single blow.

There was a justified confidence in Wu Tianliang. Although he had only recently reached the Mortal Realm and had not had time to train since the flood, he was a respected figure in East City’s lower town. His unique “Tablet-Breaking Palm” technique was strong enough to break stones.

After Mu Fei, who was known for his destructive “Broken Jade Hand,” was enlisted by the Tang Clan, chaos broke out in East City. Several big shots of the Mortal Realm fought for control of the territories, and Wu Tianliang, the eldest son of the dead boss Wu, succeeded him and managed to retain power. His fearsome reputation was thus enhanced, but it remained notorious merely in lower-class communities.

Even though his cultivation was not high, his martial arts skills were extraordinary. He would never take a young man like Wu Mi seriously.

The mighty black energy enveloped Wu Tianliang’s arms. His palms turned iron-like black. He then shot towards Wu Mi like a black light.

Faced with the aggressive Wu Tianliang, Wu Mi gathered the powerful aura of justice from his body into his palms.

The light energy was in his right hand, symbolizing righteous solar energy. The heavy energy was in his left, signifying the righteous energy from rivers and mountains. With all his strength, Wu Mi made the first move – the killing technique “Cang Ming Break” from “The Authentic Qi of Haoran.”

“Heaven and earth are made of righteous energy, which bestows us with form. The lower is the mighty rivers and mountains, the upper is the sun and stars. These energies gather together to form the powerful, to break the…darkest night!” Wu Mi chanted, invoking the spiritual power to gradually gather two forces in his hands. As soon as the light and heavy forces collided, they attracted each other and turned into chaotic primal forces. Feeling the increasingly uncontrollable forces in his hands, Wu Mi quickly pushed it towards Wu Tianliang who was almost in front of him.

The formidable aura was on par with the killing technique in the Mortal Realm, even surpassing the martial art “Wu Luo Pointing”. The exploding energy from this collision was something that ordinary warriors could not withstand.

Seeing Wu Mi performing this technique, Wu Tianliang was terrified. Desperate, he shoved his palms in front of his chest, trying to block the “Cang Ming Break” with his iron palms.

However, with the extremely short distance between them, the turbulent energy of “Cang Ming Break” had hit his palms before he could push them out completely. His pride, the pair of iron palms, were broken in an instant, without any resistance. The “Cang Ming Break” easily tore up his protective spiritual energy and hit his chest heavily, sending him flying.

Seeing the renowned “King Tian Liang” from East City being defeated by a young warrior with just one move, the warriors watching the duel were shocked, especially those warriors on the west side who were idling by and eating bread. Seeing Wu Mi’s martial arts skills, they were so excited that they crushed their bread.

Even from a distance, they could see clearly that they couldn’t block this spirit technique either.

“Xiong Wa, can you withstand this?” A squint-eyed man stared hard at Wu Mi in the distance and asked in a low voice.

Looking at the barely breathing Tian Liang King lying in the distance, Xiong Wa, a muscle-bound man, replied, “That’s a sluggish move. It won’t hit me.” After pausing, he added, “But it can’t be blocked head-on.”

In the battle, seeing Wu Tianliang nearly dead from his attack, Wu Mi looked at his hands in shock.

Having been training with his seniors for the past half year, he had thought he was still the same weak civilian warrior. Therefore, he just wanted to show his best move in front of Tang Luo, not expecting it to cause such a big mess.

He could not understand how the so-called “Tian Liang King,” who dared to question Tang Luo, could be so weak. If he had known this, he would have used normal attacks.

He feared he would be punished. The anxious and helpless Wu Mi stood still, looking at Wu Tianliang, who had been sent flying several tens of meters away by “Cang Ming Break.” He didn’t know whether to advance or retreat, so he turned his pleading eyes to Gong Zheng, the leader of Righteous Gang, looking quite pitiful for a warrior who had just nearly killed someone.

Gong Zheng naturally saw Wu Mi’s distress. He took a few steps forward and asked Tang Luo softly, “Young Master, what happens to this Wu Tianliang now?”

“Go to the east hump and find Master Ou. He will arrange you some work.” After commanding the mediocre candidate in front of him, Tang Luo turned his head and casually replied, “This man is yours since he failed the challenge. Do whatever you want with him. Don’t bother me.”

When Wu Tianliang’s iron palm came into contact with “Cang Ming Break,” Tang Luo had already caught the detail. In his opinion, nine out of ten people who would use their bodies to resist the spirit technique were idiots. He’d never believe this “Tian Liang King” who considered himself exceptional was a battle genius. The sound of breaking bones later only confirmed that the arrogant “Yu Tian Liang King” had finally paid the price for his arrogance..
