Chapter 78 - I'm Afraid My Identity Will Be Exposed

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Dozens of afterimages started to slow down and gather together. Still wearing the standard armor, Zhou Hao looked at the bronze-masked man calmly.

“Hahaha, Zhou Hao, do you think you can challenge a grandmaster just because you killed a group of master-level experts?” The masked man laughed and directly took off the bronze mask, revealing a terrifying and hideous face.

“Today, I’ll let you witness the true strength of a grandmaster!”

He raised his hand and grabbed, and the beast-shaped jade pendant floating in the air returned at lightning speed and fused with his body.

Then, he let out a beast-like roar as his body expanded violently. His aura also increased rapidly.

Roar!!

In the blink of an eye, the bronze-masked man transformed into a creature that was seven to eight meters tall.

“Genius… Haha, even if you are a peerless genius, you will still have to be killed by me!”

With a bang, the bronze-masked man charged towards Zhou Hao at an extremely fast speed.

Bang!

Zhou Hao did not even dodge as he quickly slashed out.

Clang!!

The standard saber shattered directly.

However, a terrifying force spread out and directly sent the bronze-masked man flying. He slammed into several tall buildings and smashed into the ground.

At this moment, Xu Ling, Yuan Cheng, and the others were killing the monsters that just transformed.

Seeing a huge beast fly out, they were all shocked.

“Retreat quickly, this is a grandmaster-level monster!!” Sensing the terrifying aura emitted by this creature, Shen Jing, who had just rushed into the lightning prison, shouted anxiously.

The bronze-masked man ignored Shen Jing and the others. His blood-red eyes stared fixedly at the figure that was gradually appearing from the dust of the ruins.

“You, you actually reached the combat strength of a grandmaster!!”

“How long has it been? How did a student like you grow to such a level?!”

His voice was like thunder as it rolled out.

Shen Jing wasn’t the only one who heard it. Yuan Cheng, Fang Yi, Yu Yan, and the other Yanjing geniuses also heard it. He Biao, Zhen Hong, and the others, who were bombarding the lightning prison, also heard the explosion.

“Yes, he’s our Qu City High School’s peerless genius!”

“Hahaha, that’s great. We’re saved!”

“I knew it. He… he has always been by our side!”

The students of Qu City’s high school training class were excited. All of them seemed to have gone crazy!

Unlike these students from Qu City High School, the Yanjing geniuses and the other grandmasters all felt somewhat dumbfounded.

Genius.

Grandmaster.

These two words kept echoing in their minds.

Shen Jing and the other grandmasters were still alright. After all, they more or less understood the combat strength of that hidden peerless genius. Therefore, even though they were mentally prepared, they quickly reacted.

However, Yuan Cheng, Fang Yu, and the others’ minds gradually went blank.

They could not believe that a high school genius could actually have the combat strength of a grandmaster.

This was simply ridiculous.

As Yanjing geniuses, they had broad horizons and had even seen some true geniuses from prestigious schools.

Even the world’s most outstanding prestigious school genius was only comparable to a high-level master in terms of combat strength.

Rumble…

The huge bronze-masked man struggled to stand back up. He looked at the clear figure in the dust and suddenly laughed out loud.

“I admit that you are indeed the strongest genius I have ever seen!”

“But so what? A genius is only a genius after all. Even if… you have the combat strength of a grandmaster, the foreign races will still…”

“!!!”

Before the bronze-masked man could finish speaking,

A saber beam completely drowned his vision. When he heard the sudden sonic boom, the bronze-masked man’s heart completely stopped beating.

Boom!

His huge body fell heavily to the ground, and a saber was stabbed into his heart.

Zhen Hong, He Biao, and the other grandmasters were stunned again.

“This saber beam!!”

“It’s… it’s that Senior Zhou’s saber technique!”

“No, compared to Senior Zhou, this saber technique seems to be a little weak and not that domineering!”

Fang Yun, Yun Yan, and the others were also stunned.

They had once seen an expert perform a stunning saber technique in the wilderness.

The saber beam was almost identical to the one from before.

“Could this genius be the senior who saved us last time?” This thought surged into their minds.

Swoosh.

With the death of the bronze-masked man, the lightning prison energy that enveloped nearly half the street slowly disappeared.

He Biao, Zhen Hong, and the other grandmasters hurriedly rushed in.

Zhou Hao pulled the saber out of the corpse and saw the others rushing over. He could not help but smile bitterly in his heart, thinking to himself that his identity was probably going to be exposed this time..
