A trace of surprise appeared in Commander Tang's eyes.
People who break through during a fight are not unheard of, especially after experiencing a life-and-death battle, where the overwhelming terror ignites a desperate survival instinct. This can stimulate the body and wildly tap into one's potential!
Even a long-standing bottleneck can be broken in an instant, leading to a leap into a higher realm.
But the battle just now between me and Su Xiaobai had not reached the life-or-death stage.
Breaking through in this case, and at such a young age…
"He's an exceptional talent!" Commander Tang's gaze flashed.
Intermediate Martial General… the degree of this improvement is incredibly satisfying!
Su Xiaobai felt a wave of exhilaration.
He clenched his fists, feeling the immense changes in his body.
Bones, flesh, meridians, skin… every part of my body has entered a whole new state.
Breaking through to Martial General level is always difficult, but each time it brings immense benefits!
He quickly checked his current status:

Fully Elite Martial Commander!
Indeed, as expected of a realm honed over decades or even centuries; the foundation is incredibly solid… Even casually advancing a small realm in Martial General unexpectedly affects the small realm progress of a Martial Commander!
"What if I break through to Advanced Martial General, or even directly to the ordinary Martial Commander realm?"
"By then, I might be able to go toe-to-toe with a Martial God!"
"Have you adjusted your state?"
"If this were a battlefield and you stood there in such a careless and underestimating manner, you'd be dead by now!"
Commander Tang's cold voice rang out.
"Commander Tang, since you're waiting for me to make a move, I've decided not to take your life!" ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ nοvelfire.net
"Well, then I really need to thank you!"
As Commander Tang's words fell, his blood surged, and his figure lunged forward again!
Su Xiaobai's aura sank. He bent his knee and raised his sculpted moon azure dragon sword high, striking a grand stance.
"One force breaking through all…"
It was the same the Unified Law Codex.
Same the Immovable King Sutra.
Same that strike, concentrating all his power into one point.
However, this time, the outcome was completely different!
When the Sculpted Moon Azure Dragon collided with Commander Tang's blood-infused sword, Commander Tang had expected to block it easily, and then find another angle to attack. But unexpectedly…
A muffled sound like a bell being struck echoed.
An unprecedented, far more powerful force than Commander Tang had imagined surged from the Sculpted Moon Azure Dragon!
Invisible shockwaves suddenly spread out.
"This… This is the Elite Martial Commander level…!"
Commander Tang's eyes widened in shock.
He saw his body hunch, transforming into a bullet in mid-air, leaving a bloody afterimage before crashing through several buildings!
He plowed through three buildings' walls, and after being sent flying hundreds of meters away, Commander Tang barely managed to stop himself!
As he attempted to rise, a sudden sweetness filled his throat, and before he could stop it, a mouthful of blood poured out!
"How… How could he… How could a small realm breakthrough from a Martial General have such terrifying improvement?"
Commander Tang looked up, clutching his aching stomach, and gazed over several hundred meters at Su Xiaobai, who was casually twirling his long sword. Blood dripped from his mouth, his eyes trembling with disbelief and shock.
The power just now… was clearly at the Elite Martial Commander level!
What was going on here?
Didn't he just break through from Beginner Martial General to Intermediate Martial General?
Even if his strength improved, it shouldn't be this exaggerated!
After all, he was now crossing a major realm to fight against him… But that strike just now didn't just cross a major realm; it also crossed a small realm within the Martial Commander rank!
Even those so-called 'Geniuses' who are rumored to exist might not be able to do this… How did he pull it off?!
"Mr. Su, you… you're so strong…"
It wasn't just Commander Tang.
The veiled woman was also stunned.
Her beautiful eyes stared at the wall of the building that had been pierced, with debris still falling… From hundreds of meters away, she clearly saw Commander Tang's awkward figure!
That person came from Otherworld, or someone who had come out of it!
And yet, he was struck so badly with a single blow…
This truly shattered her understanding of the 'Intermediate Martial General' level!
"Commander Tang, now you should understand the gap between us, right?"
"I just said I wouldn't kill you. A gentleman's word is his bond, so you may leave now!"
Su Xiaobai said with a smile.
Commander Tang's emotions were complex.
He was top-notch in terms of cultivation talent, had the protection and training of the Dongfang family, had visited another world, and returned alive… He had thought that, although he might not be invincible at his level, at least there wouldn't be many rivals among those at the same rank.
But then he came to Base No. 18 and encountered a freakish Junior… No, Intermediate Martial General!
Clearly, the task the master had given him was now impossible to complete.
"Commander Tang, you can head back now!"
"Also, tell him, there are plenty of people stronger than him in this world! His so-called dignity means nothing to me!"
The veiled woman said coldly.
Commander Tang hesitated, his eyes flickering.
But after looking at Su Xiaobai, he hesitated for a moment, then sighed deeply, cupped his hands, and said:
"Miss, since you don't wish to return, I'll take my leave first."
"I'll deliver your message to the master!"
After saying this, Commander Tang turned to leave.
The veiled woman called out to him, and with a flick of her wrist, a blood-red crystal stone appeared in her hand.
"You failed the mission, and with his personality, he won't let you off easily. Take this back to report, and it might help him feel a little better."
With that, she threw the blood-red crystal stone to Commander Tang.
"Miss, your kindness is deeply appreciated!"
Commander Tang gratefully bowed, then turned and left.
"What a shame, what a shame… That was a top-grade flame crystal!"
"All right, now that the crisis is resolved, this lady, you should fulfill your promise!"
Su Xiaobai grinned as he looked at the veiled woman.
