Chapter: 960

"Warm up?" Verdant Phantom snorted.

"You sure talk big for someone who’s about to meet their demise."

"Because of you? As if." Terry calmly stood up with his hands clasped behind his back.

"Hmph! I’ve already defeated countless martial artists on The Heavenly Immortals. You’re nothing more than a stepping stone for my journey to reach the top of the list!" Verdant Phantom declared confidently.

No one rebutted his arrogant words after they had witnessed his strength earlier.

"Don’t tell me you think you’re on par with me just because you defeated Geoffrey Vaughn?" Terry smirked condescendingly.

"The gap between each rank on The Heavenly Immortals is like a river. Compared to me, those that you defeated are about seven ranks lower than me, and that makes the gap between the two of us as vast as the ocean."

"Those standards don’t apply to me. With my spear alone, I’ll defeat every single one of you!" Verdant Phantom smirked.

"You sure are a reckless fellow. Well, I hope you don’t disappoint me later," Terry responded calmly.

"Enough with the chit–chat. Choose your weapon!" Verdant Phantom swung around, exuding a fierce aura.

"I choose my spear."

"My weapon? Pfft. I don’t need one against you." Terry’s hands remained behind his back, and his nonchalant attitude showed how little he cared about his opponent.

"Since you seem keen to die, why don’t I give you a hand?" With a stomp, Verdant Phantom shot toward Terry with his spear in his grasp.

There was a glint as the spear thrust forward, its movements charged with power thanks to the true energy supplied to it. The unmatched speed and power left everyone in awe.

The tip of the spear tore through the air, leaving a shadow behind. There was even a long gouge on the ground from where the blade had been dragged past.

"What terrifying skills!"

"Terry Dole is in danger now!"

Everyone silently feared for Terry. They also realized that Verdant Phantom had been holding back against them earlier.

In the blink of an eye, the tip of the man’s spear made contact with Terry’s chest. However, to everyone’s astonishment, despite being struck, Terry stood his ground without flinching, enduring the ferocious attack with his body!

"What?" The scene before the crowd caused their eyes to widen and their jaws to drop in shock.

All of them had witnessed Verdant Phantom’s strength firsthand and saw how ferocious his last attack was, yet Terry had used nothing but his chest to block the blow. Was that even humanly possible?

"How can this be?" Verdant Phantom was shocked. He staggered backward, his face full of disbelief.
