Chapter 151: Su Mo’s Target
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Su Mo rushed toward Fei Kuang.
Fei Kuang also rushed toward Su Mo while roaring.
Both swung their fists at almost the same time. They crashed into each other like two meteors.
Fei Kuang’s fists were as large as pans and extremely powerful.
Su Mo’s fist gave off a faint golden light that looked like it could destroy everything.
Bang!
The collision caused a dull sound and forced both men to fall back at the same time.
Su Mo was shocked by how frightening his opponent’s human body force was, and his arm became numb from the punch.
Fei Kuang was also shocked.
He raised his fist in front of his eyes with a serious expression.
The skin on his hands had cracked open, revealing thin strands of blood.
“Howl!”
Fei Kuang licked his lips, roared, and again rushed toward Su Mo.
Then the two men collided violently again.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
They swung their fists relentlessly in the fighting ring, with fist shadows flying everywhere. They collided continuously, and their bodies flew all over the ring.
In just a short amount of time, they collided over 100 times.
And each punch came a dull sound.
Everyone in the audience was stunned.
They were not only shocked by Su Mo’s human body strength, but also by the two men’s unique fighting techniques.
Their techniques were not flashy at all.
They did not use genuine Qi or martial arts techniques, but relied solely on their human body strength.
It was simple, rough, savage, and direct.
There were endless collisions.
The two men fought for a little while longer.
Boom!
After a collision, the two men flew away from each other again.
The audience looked at them.
They could see that Su Mo’s clothes were tattered, his hair was messy, and his bare skin gave off a faint golden light.
His hands were still shaking.
Fei Kuang’s clothes were also tattered, and his muscles were completely exposed.
However, Fei Kuang’s body was covered in gaping wounds, and his iron fists had turned into a mess of bloody flesh.
The right side of his chest had even been sunken in, revealing that his chest plate had been fractured.

“Has Fei Kuang lost?”
“How could it be? Su Mo’s human body strength is actually greater than Fei Kuang’s!”
Everyone was stunned.
“What kind of Body Refining Skill did you cultivate?” Fei Kuang asked with a shocked expression.
Having always been body constitutions gifted, he had the strength of 500kg at the age of 10.
When he was 12, he began cultivating Mighty Bull Skill, which took him six years to complete and gave him the human body strength of a martial artist at Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm.
However, even so, his human body strength was still weaker than Su Mo’s!
He could not understand that.
“Your force isn’t actually weaker than mine!”
Su Mo did not answer him and instead sighed, saying, “You lost because your human body defenses are weaker than mine.”
“Defenses?”
Fei Kuang was confused.
“The Body Refining Skill I have cultivated not only gave me a great amount of force, but also a strong human body defense.” Explained Su Mo. “Although you have unmatched human body strength, your defense against attacks is not nearly as good as mine!”
Su Mo was being honest. Fei Kuang’s human body strength was not weaker than his.
He lost to him because his defense was weaker.
As long as Su Mo hit him, Fei Kuang would definitely receive a wound.
But when Fei Kuang hit Su Mo, he would only feel a little pain.
There was basically no serious damage.
“I get it!”
Fei Kuang immediately understood and nodded with a disappointed look in his eyes.
He had always been proud of his human body, so to be defeated in that was a blow to his ego.
“Do you want to go on?” asked Su Mo with a laugh.
Although Su Mo had won in terms of human body strength, he still wanted to compete in terms of comprehensive abilities!
“No, we’ll both progress into the Tournament anyway!”
Fei Kuang shook his head, dismissed the distractions in his heart, and said quietly, “Let’s actually compete in the Tournament!”
“Alright!”
Su Mo nodded.
“Su Mo wins!” said the Deacon.
After which, the two men left the fighting ring.

Everyone broke into chatter. Su Mo could kill opponents at a higher level because he had such powerful human body strength!
“Purely based on human body strength, I could easily kill him!” said a cold young man who was standing next to Nangong Linjue from far away.
He was Li Jiandong, a member of the Sky Alliance who was ranked number four in the outer gate.
“Junior Brother Yi, do you think you can take this person?”
Li Jiandong asked Yi Xiaoguang, who was standing nearby.
Yi Xiaoguang became serious, thought for a while, and said, “I’m not very sure. It’s a 50/50 chance!”
His expression revealed mixed emotions.
A few months ago, he saw Su Mo as a small fry who he could kill with one strike, but now, he was a formidable opponent to him.
This made Yi Xiaoguang quite bitter.
“Junior Brother Yi, if you run into this person first in the Tournament, try to kill him if you can, and retreat if you can’t!” said Nangong Linjue. “He’ll definitely die anyway, so you don’t have to take such a risk!”
Yi Xiaoguang nodded.
He knew that Nangong Linjue was right.
The match continued on.
The sky slowly darkened as evening arrived.
And a half an hour later, all the battles had ended in Su Mo’s team two.
Su Mo had easily beat everyone.
Shortly after, the other four teams all had finished as well.
“In team one, Duan Bingye and Lu Shaoyun progress.
“In team two, Su Mo and Fei Kuang progress.
“In team three, Yi Xiaoguang and Li Jiandong progress.
“In team four, Nangong Linjue and Mei Ling progress.
“In team five, Ling Muchen and Wu Meng progress.” Announced the First Elder.
“Congratulations to you 10 for entering the top 10. The Tournament will begin tomorrow morning.”
The point game had ended.
All that were left now was the Tournament of the top 10 Outer Gate disciples.
Most of the people who had progressed on were already top 10 Outer Gate disciples.
Only He Yangjun, who was number nine, and Gu Zhan, who was number 10, were replaced by Su Mo and Wu Meng.
After the competition ended, Su Mo left the outer square.
When he returned to his courtyard, Su Mo saw Niu Xiaohu and Zhou Xin conversing.
“Did you make it into the top 10, Senior Brother Su Mo?” asked Zhou Xin anxiously when he saw Su Mo return.
“Yes! I made it into the top 10!” Su Mo said with a nod. “How is Li Feng?”
“Senior Brother Li Feng is feeling much better!” said Niu Xiaohu. “However, he hopes that we send him back home tomorrow.”
Su Mo nodded his head.
After Li Feng’s cultivation and limbs were ruined, there was no reason for him to stay on Gale Island, where there was no one to take care of him.
“Let’s wait a couple of days! The year will be over in a little over a month, so we can leave together in a few days,” Su Mo said with a sigh.
Niu Xiaohu shook his head and said, “Senior Brother Li Feng wants to leave tomorrow. Also, it would be a huge inconvenience for you!”
“I’ll go pay him a visit!”
Su Mo went to Li Feng’s room.
He did not leave until it was very late.
Li Feng insisted on leaving the next day. According to him, he had servants to wait on him at home, and he could heal in peace.
Su Mo had no choice but to let Niu Xiaohu and Zhou Xin bring Li Feng home tomorrow.
Not long after Su Mo returned to his room, Wang Hui arrived.
“Junior Brother, you’re already in a tough situation with the Sky Alliance. How confident would you feel facing Nangong Linjue tomorrow?” asked Wang Hui bluntly.
Wang Hui looked slightly concerned. After all, Nangong Linjue was so powerful. Although Su Mo was very outstanding, it would still be hard for him to beat him.
“Senior Brother, I just want to know… Do you think Duan Jingtian would attack me if Nangong Linjue died?” Su Mo asked quietly instead of answering Wang Hui.
“He might!”
Wang Hui sighed and nodded with uncertainty.
“Would Master attack?” asked Su Mo.
“He would!” answered Wang Hui definitively.
Su Mo smiled coldly.
He then said arrogantly, “If that’s the case, Senior Brother, tomorrow I will sweep through the Outer Gate and overthrow the Sky Alliance!”

The Lady's Handbook of Intrigue and Murder (High Fantasy Politics)
Summary:The daughter of a dying house is summoned to the Imperial City to meet and perhaps marry a handsome prince. It sounds like a fairy tale. Except Mydea doesn’t have the advantage of a half-forgotten childhood encounter, supreme magic to match the highest echelons of society, or even the privilege of an ally. In order to survive and make a name for herself, she must beat the Imperial Court at its own game. At least no one's tried to kill her—yet. Notes: Basically, if you liked the magic of Harry Potter and the politics of Game of Thrones, you'll probably like this. While the first book focuses on the female lead, and the interplay of competing regional and imperial interests, subsequent books will also cover warfare and how I imagine that differs wildly from historical norms with the introductions of a magical aristocracy.
