The Human Giant

Chapter 386 385: The Test Dummy



Seeing the confident sneer on Jilque's face, Yoze subtly smiled under his blood armor.

"Jilque is much stronger than I initially thought, so I can hold back slightly less."

Yoze's eyes sparkled as he felt his heart pumping. His dark blood rapidly circulated and poured out through his pores. After testing Jilque's fighting ability, he determined he was the second strongest Blood Master he had ever faced. Only second to Geo, who had modified his body to extreme levels.

"If I exclude Geo since he mainly used his immortal cultivation to increase his strength to such an absurd level, then Jilque is by far the strongest. I might be wrong, but he might even be able to hold his own against a Martial Grandmaster like Silver Thunder."

As Yoze thought about Martial Grandmaster Silver Thunder, his mind began to think back to when he first battled this legendary fighter. At the time, he was much weaker and only reached his peak as a first-rate martial artist.

He would have been crushed if he hadn't gotten his body strengthened by his demon spiritual body cultivation and broken through the limits of Mindless Legs. Even with his advantages, he couldn't even fight back against this legend due to their massive gap in martial arts skills.

Unfortunately, such a strong martial artist can be easily suppressed and killed using spiritual energy. This type of energy was simply too overpowering against people who couldn't control their spiritual energy. It's a one-hit KO!

"If I didn't have those advantages, I would have died before I knew what killed me."

Yoze lightly shook his head with pity, but he didn't stop attacking Jilque as he slowly increased the amount of strength to be slightly weaker than him. He wanted an intense battle where he could push his martial arts skills to the limit.

As the foundation of his power, he didn't want his martial arts skills to rot or stagnate. At the same time, his body cultivation and spiritual energy become his only fighting method. This was especially important now that he knew there was a path to bring the martial arts path to the same level as the immortal cultivation and spiritual energy power systems.

To reach this level of power, he needed to be an expert in martial arts; no, he needed to be the absolute best martial artist! How can a martial artist lose against another in terms of martial arts skills!? Especially someone who planned on forging the future path of martial arts!

"If I want to be able to fight against those old monsters who lived for thousands of years, then I have to use all my advantages. Thanks to the Second Best System, I can use all four power systems of this world."

"But that doesn't mean that I'm the best at them. So far, I have developed my martial arts skills, spiritual energy, immortal cultivation, and witchcraft to some extent."

"I'm a jack of all trades but a master of none. Compared to any expert in these fields, I'm still a noob. I might have extremely good talent, but it takes time and opportunities for me to develop. Since a good training dummy fell on my doorstep, why not use it?"

As Yoze's mind thought about his future, his body didn't stop for a moment and continued to battle Jilqie. With three Blood Masters clashing, a thick blood fog had overtaken the entire town hall that was barely standing.

Yoze and Suzanne pushed Jilque further and further away from Mr. Light and the approaching guards in a short period. If one looked behind their path, they would only find destruction as the walls that remained sturdy for decades had multiple giant holes going through them.

The floors and ceiling were no better than the smooth wooden floor littered with holes of various sizes. Some were extremely large as they had endured an explosion, and some were tiny like someone had used a needle to poke through the floor.

Regardless of its state, the moment Jilque, Suzanne, and Yoze stepped on the ground, regardless of their weight and movement techniques, the floor below them would collapse at the slightest touch. Without their constant awareness of their surroundings, they could lose their balance at any point and allow their enemies a golden opportunity to kill them.

Even the ceiling above their head was in the best state as the countless holes allowed the beautiful rays of light inside the town hall, making it seem that it was an open-air design.

While they battle at the edge of the town hall, Yoze suddenly sees a gap within Jilque's defenses and immediately seizes this chance. Using his flexible body, he slivered past the dozens of punches, kicks, and even headbutts that Jilque threw before slamming his shoulder into Jilque's chest.

"Boom!"

Jilque's face turned snow-white as the immense power from Yoze's Shoulder Rush crushed his ribs into fine powder. Almost immediately, Jilque's body was spent flying before immediately breaking through the wooden wall, causing its collapse.

Unfortunately, even that wasn't enough, as Jilque's body helplessly crashed into another store more than thirty feet away before he could stop himself. The damage from that one attack was enough to kill any Blood Master who didn't have their blood armor on, and yet, other than a ghostly pale face, sunken chest, and damaged organs, Jilque showed no sign of being on death row.

The sickening smile on his face never left his face as if he enjoyed the pain that Yoze had just given him.

"You're strong. Maybe even stronger than the rumors said you are. To be able to fight against me to this extent is admirable."

"I hope that you pat yourself on the back... Jozo? It's been quite fun, but the girl fighting alongside you is getting boring. Get rid of her, please." Jilque said as he lightly twisted his body as if he wanted to stretch his muscles.

Hearing that Jilque wanted to fight him one-on-one, Yoze ignored his request. He had only one reason why he allowed Jilqie to live this long. It's to further perfect his martial arts.

Only by giving Jilque just enough pressure would he use everything he had in his arsenal to fight against him and feel comfortable enough to think he can escape whenever he wants. So far, his strategy has been working like a charm.

"He really is like the perfect test dummy." Yoze thought to himself as he felt his admiration for Jilque as a martial artist soar.

It had only been a few minutes since the start of their battle, and Jilque had already used more than one hundred different martial arts techniques. From his strange escape techniques, movement techniques, attacks, and even defense techniques, he seemed to have a never-ending supply of ways to fight!

"All being equal, Jilque is simply the better fighter among us."

Yoze smiled under his blood armor as he didn't feel upset at this realization and instead felt excited. He knew that his large martial arts talent would be the most useful only when the ceiling was high enough.
