The moment Tuoba San took out the sealing stone, Xuan Shan's heart skipped a beat. It was this very thing that had almost shattered his tortoise shell...
The three generals of Tuoba had their longswords and the sealing stone tied together, making it look like a hammer used by primitive people...
Although it was rudimentary, Tuoba San was quite satisfied. He then enlarged the hammer, turning the longsword into the hammer handle, and gripped it, smashing it directly at Xuanshan…
Even though he was very confident in his defenses, Xuan Shan was still somewhat apprehensive when faced with the attack from the sealing stone…
Bang…
For some reason, a sentence popped into Tuoba San's mind.
"Eighty for the big hammer, forty for the small hammer..."
Tuoba San was completely baffled, but every time he swung the hammer, he would shout "Eighty!"
He didn't know why, but he just felt a strong presence...
Two sounds kept echoing in Xuan Shan's ears: 'Bang!' 'Eighty!' 'Bang!' 'Eighty!'
He's almost gone crazy. Fine, you can smash it if you want, but why the hell did you have to yell 'eighty'? Now he's completely obsessed with what that means…
"Stop smashing it..."
Xuan Shan suddenly roared; his head was spinning from the shock, and he couldn't take it anymore…
Tuoba San raised the sledgehammer high, looking at Xuan Shan with a puzzled expression, wondering what he was going to do. He hadn't smashed enough yet...
"Can we stop smashing things?"
Xuan Shan pleaded, "This is too torturous! The vibrations from the sealing stone aren't completely immune; they can penetrate the tortoise shell and affect my flesh. The high-frequency vibrations have already caused me some injuries..."
Although the initial injury wasn't severe, the cumulative effect over time had caused damage to his internal organs...
"Of course, you can be my father's mount..."
Tuoba San said calmly…
"I've already said I'm a prodigy from the Tai Shi Demon Mountain..."
'Bang' 'Eighty'
Tuoba San wasn't going to tolerate him at all. Since he wouldn't agree, he'd just keep smashing things...
"Stop! Didn't we agree not to smash anything?"
Xuan Shan was almost in tears. How could this person go back on their word?
"If you don't agree to be my father's mount, I'll definitely keep smashing it..."
Tuoba San said quite naturally…
Xuan Shan thought to himself, "We can talk things out. Can't we stop being so violent?"
"Brother, I'm doing this for your own good. If you capture me to be your father's mount, the Tai Shi Demon Mountain will hunt you down relentlessly..."
Xuanshan explained...
"That means there's no room for negotiation..."
Tuoba San concluded, then raised his longsword and began to smash...
"Stop! I already said I'm doing this for your own good. Aren't you afraid of the Tai Shi Demon Mountain? It's one of the nine major sects, and its strength is definitely among the top..."
Tuoba San scoffed at Xuan Shan's words, saying with great disdain.
"Do I need your kindness? In this world, everyone except my father can be killed..."
Xuan Shan thought to himself, "Why can't you be reasoned with?" He looked sincerely at Tuoba San and said, as if he were speaking from the bottom of his heart.
"The Tai Shi Demon Mountain is very protective of its own. Even if I were willing, the Tai Shi Demon Mountain would not agree. This would be a slap in their face. These major sects care about their reputation the most, do you understand?"
"Are you done talking?"
Tuoba San looked at him and asked without any expression...
Xuan Shan thought he understood, and nodded somewhat blankly, wondering what Tuoba San meant by asking that question...
"Then I'll continue..."
'Bang' 'Eighty'
Xuan Shan lay on the ground, looking utterly hopeless. He had made himself perfectly clear, so why was he still hit?
"Stop! I agreed..."
"No! You must hold on for the dignity of Tai Shi Demon Mountain..."
'Bang' 'Eighty'
Tuoba San was having a blast smashing things; he hadn't felt this cathartic in a long time, so he had no intention of stopping...
"No more... I really don't want it anymore. To hell with Tai Shi Demon Mountain, to hell with dignity, I don't care about any of it, just stop..."
Xuanshan roared, his voice trembling with tears. He was on the verge of collapse. If this continued, the tortoise shell might be fine, but his internal organs would be turned into a bloody pulp…
"Even if we abandon the dignity of the Primordial Demon Mountain, you are still the fifteenth ranked genius on the Prodigy Ranking. How can you back down? You must hold on..."
'Bang' 'Eighty'
Xuan Shan groaned inwardly, "You did this on purpose, didn't you? I don't even care about the dignity of Tai Shi Demon Mountain anymore, so why would I care about the Heavenly Pride Ranking?"
"I don't want that anymore. Being your father's mount is all I want..."
"No, that won't do. It's too unfair to you. You can't swallow your pride. What if it harms my father?"
'Bang' 'Eighty'
Xuanshan hurriedly pleaded.
"Let me go, please stop smashing things, I'll do anything you want..."
Upon hearing this, Tuoba San looked at Xuanshan and said...
"Hand over the soul contract to my father..."
Xuan Shan was stunned for a moment. This was a death sentence, a loss of freedom in the future. How could anyone agree to such a humiliating thing?
"You hesitated! That proves you're unwilling, so I continued..."
'Bang' 'Eighty'
A few more blows shattered Xuan Shan's last line of defense...
“I am willing. I was born for your father. He is my destined master in this life, and I am willing to be his most loyal mount for all eternity…”
Xuan Shan himself never expected that he could utter such obsequious words. If this got out, it would probably cause a sensation throughout the entire Central Continent…
The hammer that Tuoba San had raised remained suspended in mid-air, and he couldn't help but complain.
"You chickened out way too fast..."
Xuan Shan couldn't help but roll his eyes at him, thinking to himself, "If I don't back down faster, this hammer blow will cost me eighty again..."
"I was wrong, please take me to my master, I want to be his mount..."
After Xuan Shan crossed his moral line, he felt he had to please me so he could bully Tuoba San in my name to get revenge…
"Turn back to your turtle form. You look too ugly like this; my father doesn't like it..."
Hearing Tuoba San's humiliating words, Xuan Shan didn't dare to get angry and could only complain in his heart...
Xuanshan readily transformed back into his true form, a dragon-patterned tortoise that blotted out the sky, exuding an imposing aura. Even Tuoba San couldn't help but nod in approval, thinking it was a fine mount...
On the other side, Liu Lingxian had already suppressed Murong Chui, which was something Murong Chui hadn't expected, since Liu Lingxian wasn't on the list of geniuses...
"Someone like you still calls me 'junior sister'? Aren't you ashamed...?"
Being beaten up by a girl is humiliating enough, but to be verbally humiliated like that made Murong Chui feel utterly ashamed...
Before he could resist, Liu Lingxian sealed him with the power of the Five Elements. Seeing that Tuoba San had already subdued Xuanshan, her eyes gleamed with amazement. A Martial Emperor subduing the fifteenth-ranked genius on the Prodigy Ranking—this was something unprecedented in history…
"Third brother, you're amazing..."
While praising Tuoba San, Liu Lingxian casually tossed Murong Chui to Tuoba San's feet like a dead dog, looking utterly pathetic...
