Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 150

Chapter 150: Beast Soul Imprint

Meng Chao’s eyes lit up. He could detect the underlying meaning in Dean Zong’s voice.

Even though he was an expert in the Beast Soul Style, as long as Meng Chao could prove that the Ultimate Style was the Maxim gun that could take over the line infantry strategy, he would not be stubborn and make reformations as well as promote the Ultimate Style with everything he had.

“I can prove it,” Meng Chao quickly said. “Yesterday, I fought against the monster controller course. You know the results of that, right?”

“Yes. But it’s far from enough,” Dean Zong replied. “First, your personal characteristics were still too obvious in the battles.

“I admit, you and Wu Wu are both monster level geniuses, and your fighting experience is even better than hers, even though she lived in the wild. It’s as if you have participated in more than one hundred battles that are way more vicious than our current battles.

“Your talent is one of a kind, and the way you use the Ultimate Style cannot be imitated by others.

“Second, even if you are able to prove that the Ultimate Style has a unique advantage among one-star superhumans who have just reached Spirit Tattoo Realm, what about those who are two stars, three stars, or have reached Heaven Realm or Deity Realm?

“Will the Ultimate Style be able to bring out greater glory then? And how is its performance when used to fight against Apocalyptic Beasts in the wild? Before you answer these questions through real battles, I will not make any judgments.”

“Got it. I will fight in more battles to continue refining the Ultimate Style to prove everything about it,” Meng Chao said with an intense gaze. “Is that why you agreed to let me go to the northern battlefield?”

Zong Yue smiled. “It’s good that you have confidence. After all, you’re young. But I still have to give you a reminder. After a Deity Realm elite sees through the secrets of life, the secrets of martial arts they learn is something you can never imagine. Thus, overcoming the Beast Soul Style and the Overkill Style will be something even harder than reaching heaven.”

“On Earth, humans have long since shot through the skies and stepped into space,” Meng Chao said firmly. “Even if we’re in the Other World, we’re just temporarily sealed under the skies. I believe that there is nothing that will stop the humans in their tracks. Even if there is an iron wall that is suppressing the Other World’s sky, one of these days, we’ll blow a hole in it!”

“Hahahaha! Interesting! It’s been a long time since I met a student like you. Well then, I’ll let you witness just what is the power that rides above the heavens!”

Dean Zong laughed loudly.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes wide, and spirit flames burned fiercely around him.

When he released his spirit flames, he was not like Soul Breaking Saber Luo Wu. He did not give off the feeling of tidal waves or a volcano eruption.

Instead, his vitality magnetic field naturally and quietly spread through the entire ward, causing the entire dimension to seem to have submitted to him. He became the king and even god of this small world!

Meng Chao’s vision blurred. In a daze, he thought his eyes were playing tricks with him. It was as if the entire world had collapsed in an instant, and then reassembled into a brand new world.

Everything in the ward had disappeared. He stood among mountains, and his body was as tiny as an ant as he looked at a towering mountain that was surrounded by fog and clouds!

He knew that it was an illusion, but no matter how he blinked and gritted his teeth, he could not see any flaws in the illusion. He reached out to touch the spot under his butt, but he could not touch the chair he was sitting on.

He could only watch the towering mountain continue growing and becoming bigger, mightier, and higher. It was like a supernatural being that no living being could climb over.

Suddenly, two strange eyes opened on the mountain, and they stared unblinkingly at him.

“Ah…” It was only at that moment that Meng Chao realized that the towering object was not a mountain. It was a huge tortoise.

The tortoise which was thousands of meters tall stood up. It crushed mountain rocks that weighed millions of tons, and the shattered stones went to crush him.

Meng Chao’s shock could not be described with words.

He was tiny. When he faced thes gigantic creature that was basically a deity, he felt like he was facing the apocalypse.

But…

“Even if I’m facing a real apocalypse, I’m going to crush it!”

Meng Chao used his foot to pick up a stone that was about the size of his fist. After weighing it, he threw it fiercely at the tortoise’s head.

At the moment the stone was about to hit the tortoise, the illusion shattered like a mirror with a bang.

Meng Chao returned to reality. He still sat in his chair, and only three seconds had passed since he fell into the illusion.

He was drenched in cold sweat and felt exhausted. His head hurt, and his heart raced even faster than when he fought against Wu Wu last night.

“I didn’t expect that you would have the courage to attack my beast soul.” Dean Zong did not hide the surprise on his face and delight in his eyes. “What you just saw is a Grade Eight Apocalyptic Beast I killed ten years ago. Once I extracted its power, I used hundreds of vitality magnetic fields from similar superbeasts to refine it repeatedly. In the end, that’s the beast soul I created.

“Just now, I had part of my beast soul imprint itself in your mind. As long as you focus and enter a deep, meditative state, you can sense its presence.

“It can’t help you fight, but it can help you enter the illusion just now to cultivate.

“Didn’t you boast about how the Ultimate Style is the future? You even wanted my support so that you can challenge Dragon City University’s martial arts course, right? Very well, I will give you the chance, but that’s as long as you get through the test of my Black Tortoise!”

Meng Chao touched his head. He was surprised and delighted.

Dean Zong was known as Black Tortoise and the Iron Mountain Shield. The Black Tortoise was the foundation he used to reach Deity Realm.

Now, Dean Zong had actually imprinted part of the Black Tortoise’s Beast Soul in his mind.

He said that it was a test, but in truth, he had done everything he could to provide him with a cultivation direction. He even taught him a unique cultivation method.

Meng Chao could rely on Black Tortoise’s beast soul to repeatedly refine his fighting skills and mental strength, and with Kindling as well as his contribution points, he would practically be flying down his path of cultivation!

“Dean Zong, this is too…” Meng Chao’s emotions surged, and he could not calm down even after a long time had passed.

Dean Zong was a Deity Realm elite, but he had personally provided guidance to a freshman. The value the strongest Beast Soul Style martial artist placed on the Ultimate Style far surpassed his expectations.

Meng Chao’s mind started working, and he suddenly managed to understand a lot of things.

“Dean Zong, in truth, you have been supporting the Ultimate Style all this while in the dark, right?” Meng Chao said. “Even though the project was halted and you ‘sent’ Mr. Gu to the refresher course, most of the students from society are broken-star superhumans, and their main meridians have shrivelled, so they’re the best candidates to cultivate with their branch meridians.

“Besides, you have also given them all the labs under the old lecturer building. You also gave them an environment where they can conduct their research without facing any interference.

“When we restarted the project, you also gave us a lot of second-hand cultivation and research equipment that seemed to have been cast out, but could actually be used after we cleaned and modified them a little.

“If you hadn’t been protecting us all this while, it wouldn’t have been so easy for us to relaunch the project, and we wouldn’t have faced no interruptions from the world.

“I knew it, you have never given up on Senior Zong Ye’s efforts and his dying will!”

Dean Zong looked down to hide the faint surges of emotion in his eyes.

“Don’t misunderstand, Meng Chao, this has nothing to do with Zong Ye,” Dean Zong said softly. “I’m standing at the peak of the Beast Soul Style, and no one can see clearer than me that we have reached the end of our path. There is no more road further ahead.

“Good luck, Meng Chao. I hope that the Ultimate Style all of you have been working on can create a new path that can win against me and the Beast Soul Style, the Dragon City University’s martial arts course and their Overkill Style, as well as all the enemies who stand in the way of Dragon City and keep it from moving forward.”

When Meng Chao returned to his senses, Dean Zong was already gone.

‘How strange, I don’t think I’ve been distracted and was staring at Dean Zong all along, but I never even noticed when he left.’

But he did not care about it that much. Meng Chao eagerly sat down in a meditative state and focused to enter deep meditation.

Just as he expected, he could see the towering tortoise in the depths of his mind.

He focused his mind and attacked it. The ward instantly collapsed and changed into his and the tortoise’s battlefield.

The tortoise had shrunk more than a hundred times its original size.

But it was still dozens of meters tall. It had bumps all over its body, and its shell looked like rocks and metal. It gave off the feeling that it could remain as still as a mountain, and nothing could possibly leaven a dent on it.

Meng Chao noticed that the turtle, with its great defense, was the natural enemy of the Ultimate Style, because its offensive power was relatively weak.

In other words, if he could defeat the huge tortoise in the illusion with the Ultimate Style, he could defeat most monsters in reality.

And his mental strength would also increase by leaps and bounds because of the beast soul imprint repeatedly refining him.

“Interesting!”

Meng Chao used all his attacks to strike the Black Tortoise, but no matter how he moved around, it looked as if he was just scratching an itch for the tortoise.

Soon, the huge tortoise easily killed him with a smack.

Meng Chao got out of his meditative state. He still had not had his fill of fighting and wanted to challenge it again, but Gu Jianbo was sitting cross-legged at the end of the bed while watching him with a complicated expression.

“Over the past ten years, Dean Zong seldom provided guidance to undergraduate students, much less freshmen,” he said with a frown. “When he imprints his beast soul in a students’ mind, it won’t harm their brain cells, and it lasts for a long time so that they can cultivate it repeatedly. But it’s something that requires a lot of effort to do. Trust me, this sort of guidance is something you can’t buy even with one million monster coins.

“I don’t know why you’re so lucky, kid. I didn’t expect that you would guess right and figure out Dean Zong’s temperament.”

Meng Chao naturally believed Gu Jianbo.

The careful guidance from a Deity Realm elite was not something that could be measured with monster coins.

He giggled and slapped his chest before he said, “Don’t worry, Big Brother Bo. I’m definitely going to do well at the northern frontlines. I won’t let you or Dean Zong down!”

“Don’t be too happy just yet. Who said you have the right to go to war?” Gu Jianbo schooled his face and said, “Ms. Li told me just now that you fled from the field, and you even mentioned that this is the secret of the Ultimate Style. You shocked all the students, and the ten challengers are so angry that they’re fuming. Are you going to promote the Ultimate Style like this?

“I’m telling you, you’re the one who set the rules for the fight, but Ms. Li has the final say. You won’t be able to get the right to fight at the frontlines with flowery words!”

“Big Brother Bo, you’re my personal tutor, so why is Ms. Li the one who has the final say?” Meng Chao said. “I’m definitely using the rules reasonably, and I’m using my wit to win. You’re my tutor, shouldn’t you be standing up for me and fight against Ms. Li?”

“No,” Gu Jianbo said very firmly.

Meng Chao was speechless. He stood up and turned around to walk outside.

“Where are you going?”

“My tutor isn’t supporting me, so I have no choice. I can only continue competing and get rid of Duan Lian as well as the other challengers,” Meng Chao said in resignation.

Gu Jianbo was stunned. “Now? But you’ve already run away!”

“Who said I did? We didn’t specify just how large the arena is, and we didn’t say when the challenge will end.” Meng Chao smiled, revealing sharp teeth. “So, I wasn’t running away. I was just moving around in a large area. And before one side completely falls, the match isn’t over!”
