"This..."

"How is that possible?"

"What kind of technique is that? A single strike killing over ten at the peak of First Break?" The remaining powerhouses nearing Second Break were all taken aback.

With their current combat strength, killing those at the peak of First Break was not a problem.

But like Jiang Ye, instantly vanquishing a dozen at the peak of First Break? Impossible!

Is the disparity in power really that immense?

...

"Jiang Ye has indeed mastered the Third Form Ultimate Technique?" Shen Changxi glanced at the battlefield, similarly astonished.

Others didn't know the reason, but she was quite aware.

The Great Sun Spear Technique's Third Form Ultimate Technique 'Sunfall' inherently belonged to the realm of Second Break.

Usually, only after reaching Second Break can the Third Form Ultimate Technique be unleashed!

What Jiang Ye displayed, though just a prototype, was far beyond the peak of First Break.

"However."

"Unleashing an ultimate move so quickly will exhaust him." A trace of worry flashed in Shen Changxi's eyes.

...

Causing such a terrifying display of power.

Must inevitably come with a cost.

"He's nearing exhaustion." A man in black observed Jiang Ye, growling lowly: "Attack together, kill him first!"

"Kill!"

"Kill! Kill!" The remaining powerhouses approaching Second Break charged at Jiang Ye.

Jiang Ye deploying an ultimate move indeed consumed immense stamina.

If facing just one nearing Second Break, he could still contend.

But against multiple powerhouses attacking? Things looked bleak.

..."Die!" Yun Qing'Er wielded her warhammer and rushed forward.

Seeing others charging at Jiang Ye, she exploded with energy again, her enormous hammer, thrice the size of her head, smashed down fiercely.

After a brief rest, Yun Qing'Er had already recovered.

She transformed into a tyrant once more.

"Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!" Two hundred hammers per second.

In an instant, she hammered a powerhouse nearing First Break into a bloody pulp on the spot.

The battle erupted once more.

...

"Useless!!"

A pale-skinned effeminate youth glared at the surveillance footage, roaring furiously: "What a bunch of useless fools, can't even handle four students?"

Watching as his subordinates were continuously defeated on screen.

The effeminate youth's expression grew increasingly terrifying.

"Hai Dong." A scarred man with bulging muscles beside him whispered: "Should we just escape?"

"Escape?"

"Can we escape?" The effeminate youth coldly replied: "All routes of retreat are sealed."

If Jiang Ye heard their conversation, he'd be utterly amazed.

This effeminate youth named 'Hai Dong' was unexpectedly one of the individuals from the list in that laboratory.

'Hai Dong, No. 33 Institute of Talent experimental subject, successful.'

This man was a successful experimental subject!

"There's only one battle."

"Kill them all." Hai Dong said chillingly: "Even if we die, let's take them down with us in death!"

Saying this, he looked at the scar-faced man beside him and said: "Death isn't the end; you and I will both join the glorious evolution, become a member of the Shadow Race."

The scar-faced man's spirits lifted, hope ignited in his eyes.

"Whoosh!"

Hai Dong suddenly stood up from his seat.

"Follow me, let's kill them all."

"Yes."

The two headed towards the hall.

As they took each step, their features, skin, and limbs began to undergo a rapid transformation.

In a mere few breaths, they transformed into complete darkness, as if becoming shadows.

However, upon closer inspection, their features seemed to have been melted by fire, a grotesque blend of flesh and blood.

At the same time.

The aura within them climbed step by step.

Peak of First Break.

Nearing Second Break.

Second Break!

...

"Boom!" "Boom!"

Two unbelievably terrifying Martial Arts Qi Spirits gushed forth from the depths of the hall, sweeping the entire hall in an instant.

Under the oppressive force of that terrifying aura, whether it was Shen Changxi, Liu Wanxiao, or Yun Qing'Er, their spines were immediately bent low.

This was oppression from a higher life level!

Like mighty beasts looking down on ants.

The terrifying sense of oppression made all four of Jiang Ye's group feel as if they were mired in mud.

"Two at Second Break?" Liu Wanxiao's face changed.

If there were only one Second Break powerhouse, the four of them could still manage.

But two Second Breaks? The difficulty would skyrocket!

The difficulty of an S-Class real combat mission was finally revealed at this moment.

Facing two Second Breaks, plus more than ten powerhouses approaching Second Break, Jiang Ye and his team appeared to have no chance of winning.

"Jiang Ye." Shen Changxi looked toward Jiang Ye, a glint of worry flashing in her red eyes.

She and Liu Wanxiao were still fine.

But Yun Qing'Er had just unleashed her innate ability, and her combat power was weakened.

Jiang Ye also unleashed his ultimate technique and would be unable to use it again shortly.

If Jiang Ye and Yun Qing'Er fell, their S-Class real combat mission was bound to fail.

"Kill!" Shen Changxi erupted completely, her sword light continuous, slashing toward the remaining enemies.

Attempting to kill them quickly before the two Second Breaks arrived.

"Clang!" "Clang!"

"Boom~!" A terrifying sword light plowed out, transforming into a crimson crescent moon phantom, exploding a powerhouse near Second Break.

...

On the other side, Jiang Ye and Yun Qing'Er also plunged into a frenzy of battle.

They knew that once the two Second Breaks arrived.

Those nearing Second Break would also become a huge threat.

So, they had to resolve it quickly.

...While the battle felt prolonged, it was actually happening very quickly.

From the moment the two Second Break auras erupted to the arrival of Hai Dong and Scarface, it was only a matter of seconds.

Jiang Ye and his teammates had once again slaughtered several enemies.

"You all..."

"Damn it!" Hai Dong looked at the corpses littering the ground, anger flashing across his face.

The next moment, he attacked decisively, his blade flashing as he furiously slashed toward Jiang Ye and his team.

The Assimilation Secret Technique had elevated him to the Second Break level, and he was confident he could easily take down these talented students.

"Kill!"

"Kill!" Jiang Ye's figure moved like lightning, charging forward with his spear.

The thirty-plus spear techniques of the Great Sun Spear Technique were unleashed without reservation.

"Clang, clang, clang!" A fierce battle erupted between Jiang Ye and the suave youth 'Hai Dong', with explosive sounds ringing out.

[Hitting a Stone with an Egg: When facing an opponent with a higher realm, there's a chance to increase damage by 100% and cause continuous bleeding effects]

Every one of Jiang Ye's spear strikes! Almost triggered 100% critical damage.

Adding 35% attack speed and 50% damage boost from Beauty Path Chasing.

Even so, Jiang Ye still found it extremely challenging.

A powerhouse nearing Second Break was far beyond his capabilities.

"Buzz!"

Behind Hai Dong, a striking jet-black pattern appeared.

This was the exclusive 'Star Vein' of a Second Break powerhouse!

"Star Vein?" Jiang Ye noticed as well.

The Star Vein was not merely a meridian but a higher-level energy conduit network capable of carrying Star Energy.

The difference between the two was like that between a highway and a mountain trail.

The gap—was several times greater.

This was the root of why Second Break powerhouses could crush those at First Break!

But since Hai Dong had forcibly entered Second Break using a secret technique, his 'Star Vein' appeared bizarre and unsightly.

Even so, the energy it unleashed was vastly superior to that of a First Break.

"Boom! Boom! Bang~" Each strike from Hai Dong brought terrifying killing intent.

For the first time, an unprecedented life-or-death crisis enveloped Jiang Ye, and any slip would lead to instant death.

The crushing dominance of a powerhouse over a weaker opponent—was just so!

Jiang Ye felt immense pressure.

But what Jiang Ye didn't know was that Hai Dong was even more astonished.

"This kid... how is it possible?" The more Hai Dong fought, the more surprised he became.

With his Second Break strength, in a one-on-one, he expected to easily crush, yet he couldn't!? Was this kid a monster?!

...

Meanwhile, Yun Qing'Er, wielding a giant hammer, also charged at the surrounding enemies, attempting to swiftly sweep away the remaining foes.

"Jiang Ye, can you still use that ultimate technique from earlier?" Yun Qing'Er asked softly through the battle armor channel while fiercely fighting.

"I can!"

"Good, let me know before you use it," Yun Qing'Er said, "I can double your damage."

"..." Jiang Ye's heart was in turmoil.

However, there was no time to think, as Hai Dong's offensive rained down on him like a storm.

At this moment, Jiang Ye did not hesitate.

"I'll use it now," Jiang Ye said to Yun Qing'Er.

"Buzz!"

In the next instant, an invisible wave enveloped Jiang Ye.

Boom, boom, boom!!!

A terrifying Martial Arts Qi Spirit burst forth from Jiang Ye's body.
