She thought about how if Yoze could kill Blood Masters as a First rate Martial artist couldn't he kill Martial Grandmaster with the same ease?
What if he had trained in a body cultivation or martial art set similar to the Blood Breaker martial art set? That would explain why he could break through so fast.
What made Blood Master Scarlett worry the most was just how massive Yoze's body was. If Blood Master Steel was a monster then just from the impression that Yoze gave her then he would be a Demon King.
With those thoughts plaguing her mind, Blood Master Scarlett almost wanted to cancel the fight after seeing the strange battlefield that they had been taken to. There was nothing but destroyed scraps of plants that littered the ground and deep cracks penetrated the earth.
If it wasn't for the thick smell of blood still lingering in the air, she would have assumed that the hill was wrecked by a natural disaster. Seeing this disaster-stricken place made Blood Master Scarlett panic as she secretly began to unleash her witchcraft in secret.
She wanted to prepare just in case something unexpected happened to her and Blood Master Steel. As long as she had her trusty basic witchcraft spells she felt that would be enough to guarantee that they would be able to escape.
As Scarlett's emotions rapidly shifted she expertly hid them away to appear as if she was calm and composed. Unfortunately, for Scarlett, she didn't notice that Yoze had been secretly watching her from the side.
He also found that as time passed on he was getting better at reading the quick but subtle changes in her face. She might have talent in controlling her emotions but it seemed that she wasn't as talented in controlling the subtle changes in her facial expressions.
She had to frequently take control of the muscles on her face to match the emotions that she wanted to show. Even though this slight lag wasn't enough for most people to notice, it was enough for Yoze.
Especially after receiving a boost to his intelligence from his upgraded Dead Crystal Nerves. He was able to rapidly learn how to decode what emotions Blood Master Scarlett was controlling.
"This place should be a good place to fight. Everything is dead so we don't have to worry about destroying the plants and killing the animals in this place." Yoze said casually.
Since he was the one being challenged he felt it was only right that he was the one that picked the location of the fighting spot. And he felt that this hill was the perfect place for him to test Blood Master Steel's capabilities.
With the level of destruction that he had caused when he activated his Blood Armor, he didn't want to cause another natural disaster at another beautiful location. Until he got control over the full scope of his abilities this hill will be the only place he could truly go all out.
Yoze turned to look at Blood Master Steel and saw that his face was as stern as steel. Not a single bit of fear could be seen in his eyes, if anything the desire to fight and come out victorious had grown since they left the inn.
"Blood Master Steel has reached the peak of the Blood Breaker martial art set but how many actual techniques does it have? Using Blood Fist takes a huge amount of my stamina to use and I could only imagine how much the original uses."
Yoze's basic understanding of the Blood Breaker martial art set came from his understanding of the Blood Fist which was based on one of the techniques in the set. Even then the creator's watered-down version still was incredibly difficult to use.
So he could imagine that the upgraded version of the Blood Fist would be even more taxing on the body. However, the power that it could allow one to unleash must be extreme to warrant that can of surpassing the limits of ideology.
Anyone who trained in the Blood Breaker body cultivation and its accompanying techniques should be mentally insane and had no better option. And someone who had been chosen to inherit a heart from an anomaly should fit both of those check marks.
To see a martial artist using the Blood Breaker martial art set made Yoze excited. He wanted to see what the potential upgraded versions of his Blood Arts could be.
He wanted to see if it was better than his Blood Weapon Handler body cultivation method. To test how much his defensive capabilities had grown since he reached the fourth level of Iron Muscles.
"Blood Master Steel, you can throw the first strike. I'll just stand here and take it as best as I can." Yoze's face turned serious as he took off his bloody hospital gown exposing his bare chest.
He took a deep breath and activated Iron Skin and Iron Muscles bringing his physical defense to its strongest form. As Blood Master Steel and Blood Master Scarlett watched Yoze prepare they saw his skin seemed to turn into a deep gray metal.
"You should use your full power." Blood Master Steel looked at Yoze with disapproval seeing that he didn't activate his blood.
"Show me what you can do first, if you are strong enough then I'll show you my blood armor. That way I don't have to worry about accidentally killing before the fight starts." Yoze shook his head, as he told the truth to Blood Master Steel.
"If you have a death wish that is fine by me,"
Just as much Yoze was confident in his abilities Blood Master Steel was confident in his. But he was never someone who liked to whole back so he immediately activated the full scope of his Blood Breaker body cultivation.
"Badum! Badum! Badum!"
The sound of Blood Master Steel's heart ranged across the battlefield resembling the beat of war drums. In an instant, a gush of dark red blood came out of his pour before immediately turning into hot blood vapor.
