That was because apart from the five hundred Beast Blood Guards, the Yuan people had a Quasi-Boss hero who possessed some Transcendent power.
“Humph!”
On one side of the battlefield, the West King of Yuan, who was also holding a pair of golden hammers, looked quite angry.
The Long Gold Hammers that served as offerings were made with the West King’s weapon as well as the unusual power in him.
The West King of Yuan still had the lingering regret and anger that were left when he was killed by Gongsun Sheng with one spell.
Therefore, he didn’t go easy on the hero from Earth like Black Mountain did earlier. Instead, he was determined to defeat the hero who attempted to arrive at the settlement that humiliated him on this illusionary battlefield.
That way, he could prove that he was worthy as a king of Yuan to the Twin Dragon Mount fort and the earthlings!
The reason he didn’t join the Beast Blood Guards was that he found Li Yuanba’s strength astonishing and the guy’s hammers were likely even heavier than his own weapon even though he was always known for his physical strength.
So, he prudently decided to observe first. He intended to exhaust Li Yuanba with the five hundred subordinates and kill him after he was weakened!
However, the five hundred Beast Blood Guards were nearly all killed at this moment, yet Li Yuanba’s combat ability didn’t drop at all.
“Ten Feet of Gold!”
He couldn’t afford any more waiting.
After his roar, some of the golden light from the West King’s hammers was absorbed into his body.
Then, the West King rose to ten feet tall, and the hammers in his hand became paler.
After that, the West King rushed into the battlefield unstoppably and, taking advantage of his height, waved both hammers and smashed heavily on Li Yuanba’s head that had a black helmet on it.
Whoosh!
Li Yuanba had just squished the lower half body of an Extraordinary Rank-5 Lion Blood soldier and knocked him away with one hammer.
Faced with the incoming hammers, he simply raised his other hammer to block the hammers that were falling to his head.
Boom!
After an enormous metallic collision, the dozen surviving Beast Blood Guards all shed blood from their mouths, noses, ears, and eyes, and they lost their balance.
Although the West King of Yuan was killed by one lightning strike from Gongsun Sheng on the Battlefield of Providence, he was actually not weak. After all, he was confident to challenge Guo Jing, who retained some of his Transcendent level, after activating Ten Feet of Gold.
It was not hard to imagine how powerful his long-prepared attack was.
Li Yuanba, however, was only defending himself in the siege. He was also resisting two hammers with one arm and one hammer.
Despite his magnificent strength, he failed the collision.
The armor on his arm crumbled, and his feet sank into the ground!
It must be noted that the ground of the battlefield created by the Long Gold Hammers, which was covered in golden light, was as hard as certain metals. The West King of Yuan’s attack was brutal enough to press him into the ground.
It was also obvious that Li Yuanba’s body, which seemed as dry as a skeleton, was even harder than metals.
Were that not true, how could he have not been wounded under the joint attacks of the Elite Extraordinary Yuan soldiers?
Li Yuanba wasn’t hurt at all until the West King’s attack, which shattered his armor.
“You’re asking to be killed!”
However, after his feet were buried into the ground, Li Yuanba roared as deafeningly as thunder.
His attitude finally changed, turning from disdain towards the beast guards to anger.
Yes, only anger. He was angry because he thought he was too careless!
Hum!
After the roar, Li Yuanba raised the hammer in his other arm and brutally smashed the West King’s bright gold hammers!
Boom!
In the enormous collision, the West King’s hammers were bounced up to the sky beyond his control, and obvious cracks appeared on the arms of his body of Ten Feet of Gold.
“What?”
There was an obvious shock in his huge eyes that had been proportionally enlarged.
“Get lost!”
Li Yuanba, who was only half of the West King’s height in the first place and could only see his legs at this moment because of his buried feet, let out a roar.
He soared to the sky and smashed his 400kg golden hammers at the ten-foot-tall West King!
The West King was quite high and strong, but his metalized body was clearly not agile enough for him to dodge the attack.
However, as a Transcendent hero, his reaction wasn’t slow at all. He waved the bright gold hammers with his cracked arms and blocked the weapons that were coming from down below!
In the next moment, the two warriors, one of whom was half the height of the other and one-eighth of the other’s size, had a brutal collision with the golden hammers in their hands!
Boom! Boom!
The West King’s metal arms were broken, and the two bright golden hammers were knocked away.
They were bounced back uncontrollably into his own head. The momentum was so strong that the ten-foot-tall giant fell backward.
Then, a golden light spread out from his dented head and his body and returned to the offerings.
Just like the West King whom Gongsun Sheng killed with a lightning strike, this West King could only make use of some of the Transcendent power and couldn’t completely metalize his internal organs and brain yet.
After only three attacks, the West King of Yuan had been killed by the enraged Li Yuanba even though he had activated Ten Feet of Gold!
Splash!
The overwhelming golden light disappeared. Everyone was back at the Temple of Providence, and the black-armored hero’s fuzzy face was revealed.
“He couldn’t have been older than thirteen. He had a ferret face and yellow hair that had been tied up in the middle. He wore a dark gold hat. He looked so skinny as if he were gravely ill.”
[Li Yuanba]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-7]
[Rarity: Commander]
[Description: He’s the toughest general in Sui and Tang, and Li Yuan’s son. He’s said to be a reincarnation of the Gold-Winged Eagle. His arms have the strength of elephants. He uses a pair of golden hammers that weigh four-hundred kilograms. His mount, “Thousand Li Cloud”, can ride five thousand kilometers in a day and eight in a night!]
It also explained why he didn’t look as tough and strong as the famous generals in ancient times. Li Yuanba was merely a young man at this moment. Naturally, he couldn’t have a tall and strong body.
“Well, this weapon is not bad!”
Li Yuanba, after his arrival, ignored everyone in the fort and picked up the golden hammers which were his spoils of war.
“But they’re too light. It would be great if they could be heavier.”
The moment he said that, a golden light appeared on the surface of the Long Gold Hammers, and they became as large as himself.
“Huh. These are great weapons!”
Li Yuanba’s eyes glittered.
As their names suggested, the Long Gold Hammers had the Transcendent power to extend their length.
Also, they could enlarge Li Yuanba’s body like the West King’s ability to make up for his shortness.
In association with his “Infinite Stamina”, he could fight even better than Zhao Yun with the Snow Spear.
The only problem was that Li Yuanba was killed by a lightning strike, and he was vulnerable to lightning exactly like the West King.
However, that could be prepared for in advance with the abundant resources and weapons in the Twin Dragon Mount.
Also, it was too early to consider that yet.
This young man from Sui and Tang was likely a quirky and self-willed person, if Ji Ye recalled correctly.
Furthermore, he was very strong. Was it possible that he would be disobedient after his arrival?
“Which of you is called ‘Master’?
“My patron asked me to accept the Twin Dragon Mount fort’s invitation when I could and to listen to the command of someone called ‘Master’ after I come!” Li Yuanba said in a low, muffled voice.
