Chapter 404: Chapter 404

Of course, the family’s destiny played an indispensable part in this. Julian’s realm had advanced rapidly, and even the treasures he found adventuring outside were extraordinary.

For this battle, he was extremely confident.

Not long after, sure enough, the scout arrived.

"Report, Saint Lord! That person has already entered the Hale family’s territory."

"Good." Alex nodded, while Julian beside him wore a face full of battle intent.

"There is no rush, let us see what exactly he plans to do." Alex was not in a hurry.

Outside the Hale family was a large city, and a young man wearing blue sect attire was currently walking through it, he had handsome, delicate features, a fair face, and a pair of pale blue eyes that were exceptionally eye-catching.

"What a fine city. It does not look large, but the cultivation realms of the people here are not weak at all." The young man looked around and smiled faintly.

"Not bad, it was not a wasted trip coming here."

"I wonder if I can encounter an opponent who can bring me joy."

The young man walked further into the city, arrived at a plaza, and casually asked a burly man nearby. "I wonder which sect or faction governs this place."

"You do not even know this?" The burly man blinked.

"This place is the territory of the Hale family. I wonder who this brother is looking for."

"The Hale family? Naturally, I am looking for the strongest of the Hale family’s younger generation." The young man said indifferently.

As soon as these words came out, the burly man was instantly taken aback but quickly realized something, a hidden faction.

This was already an open secret within the Hale family’s grand city, but no one had ever spoken of it to outsiders, seeing the person before him spouting such confident words, the burly man immediately understood his origins.

Before the burly man knew how to answer, a figure walked up from beside him. "Want to challenge my Hale family’s monstrous geniuses? Follow me."

The young man smiled faintly. "Alright."

He followed behind the scout, walking step by step toward the Hale family.

At this time, the elders were waiting in full battle readiness, seated on both sides, alongside the Hale family’s elites.

In the center, a large, elevated arena had been set up, prepared precisely for this young man.

From the head seat, Alex looked the newcomer up and down, piercing through his cultivation realm with a single glance, first Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.

This person looked to be only about nineteen years old, a few years younger than even Julian. Yet his realm was already completely on par with his.

"A monstrous genius." Alex gave his evaluation, an extremely high one.

At least until now, he had never encountered such a peerless genius. In the future, this person would inevitably become a Half-Saint Realm powerhouse.

The young man raised his head, looking at the grand setup, and could not help but laugh. "What a high standard."

"I suppose your Hale family received the news early on, truly impressive."

As he spoke, he leaped into the air and landed gracefully on the arena, seeing the other party step onto the stage, the Hale family crowd all held their breath.

"Blue Water Sect disciple, Duane."

Seeing his opponent take the stage, Julian also stepped forward, landing heavily on the arena.

"Hale family, Julian." Julian cupped his hands.

"You are also in the Nascent Soul Realm. It seems you might not disappoint me this time." Duane’s pale blue eyes swept over Julian with some surprise.

"Make your move," Julian gave a low shout.

The next second, he transformed into a mad bull, charging fiercely toward his opponent, his speed was so fast he arrived almost instantly.

Duane remained entirely unmoved until Julian threw a punch at him.

The terrifying power smashed toward his face, the sheer force blowing back his clothes. Only when the punch was about to land did Duane react.

A water screen surfaced in front of him, directly blocking the fist.

Julian was taken aback, the water screen looked weak and powerless, but it was incomparably hard, his punch was actually unable to shatter it.

Just as Julian was preparing to throw another punch, a sudden sense of crisis surged in his heart, he abruptly pulled back his fist, crossing his arms and releasing spiritual energy into a solid wall to defend.

Boom! From within that water screen, a turbulent water pillar explosively shot out, directly blasting Julian away, fortunately, he reacted in time and only narrowly avoided falling off the stage.

Seeing this scene, the Hale family crowd was incomparably shocked.

"What formidable strength this person has!"

"As expected of a hidden faction. Just a single strike is this terrifying."

"I wonder if Julian can win."

They all broke into a sweat for Julian. Duane had merely made his first move, yet he had displayed such power.

"It will not be easy to win." With just this single strike, Alex already saw the ultimate outcome of this match.

However, this was within expectations, these hidden factions possessed great divine abilities and would not be weaker than their own factions, Duane’s display was the best proof.

Duane passed through the water screen, not a single drop tainting his clothes.

Julian had already charged over again, wrapping himself in berserk spiritual energy, he violently smashed down a punch.

A massive fist phantom several meters in size descended, Duane merely raised his hand and effortlessly blocked this strike, looking closely, underneath that giant fist, there was actually a splash of water hindering it from advancing.

Duane raised his head, his pale blue eyes looking at Julian, whose expression had already changed. "You are very weak."

As his voice fell, the giant fist of spiritual energy violently shattered. Julian’s pupils shrank abruptly.

The next second, Duane took a step forward, simultaneously sending a palm strike toward him.

Water splashed, surprisingly, there was no visible manifestation of spiritual energy.

The strike itself was a manifestation of an ultimate technique.

Boom! The splashing water transformed into a flood dragon in mid-air, rampaging forward.

Julian immediately blasted out a punch. "Heaven-Splitting Earth-Shattering Fist!"

This punch truly carried the momentum of splitting heaven and shattering earth. It was extremely terrifying.

As the punch landed, it forcefully smashed the water flood dragon to pieces!
