Rebirth of the Peak Young Master
Chapter 311: Having Reservations

Chapter 311: Chapter 311: Having Reservations

Kate’s face was as calm as water, his fists clenched tightly.

Evidently, even he hadn’t anticipated that Yang Tian was this powerful!

But he still carried his confidence, because he was the Evil God Kate!

Kate took a step forward, and suddenly, a strange five-colored radiance burst forth from his body. In the next moment, like an act of teleportation, he appeared in front of Leo and the others and unleashed a thunderous punch with a furious roar.

Crack!

The black crescent that the combined effort of Leo’s group of four couldn’t stop instantly cracked under Kate’s punch, fragmented into pieces, and dissipated into the air.

"Mr. Yang, you’re quite impressive! You have finally lived up to your reputation and are worthy of me, Kate, making a move against you!" the Evil God Kate said coldly, his tone filled with arrogant disdain.

"So that’s why Evil God Kate hadn’t made a move earlier—it was because he deemed Yang Tian unworthy of his first-place status, not deserving of his effort!"

The crowd was struck with sudden understanding upon hearing Kate’s words.

No one doubted it, though, for Kate had always proven his incredible strength through action!

One person even exhaled deeply and said, "From this moment, the real ultimate battle begins! The Evil God against the God of Killing!"

Leo and the other three, seeing Kate’s power, each took a step back, ready to leave the fight to him.

After all, Kate’s inaction until now made it clear that he intended to have a one-on-one duel with Yang Tian.

But before they could fully withdraw from the battlefield,

Yang Tian, who had been sitting cross-legged in stillness, finally rose slowly. With effortless grace, he ascended to float at their height, his face bearing a faint smile as he said, "So, all five of you have made a move? In that case, let it not be said that I am bullying you. Come at me—together!"

Together?

Upon hearing Yang Tian’s words, the Evil God Kate’s expression was hard to read, but the eyes of the four—the Lion King Leo among them—instantly burned with fury!

To have reached their levels of power and mastery, who didn’t have some secret techniques preserved for decisive moments?

Though Yang Tian had forced them back earlier with a single strike, that was ultimately because the four of them weren’t of one mind, each harboring their own reservations.

If, during the fight with Yang Tian, any of them exerted too much power or took too great a risk,

would the others seize the opportunity and make off with the prize?

It was this dynamic that led to the lopsided exchange earlier.

But that didn’t mean they wouldn’t win in a true battle to the death. If the four of them joined forces, they could overcome Yang Tian!

And if the Evil God Kate joined them, the battle would be even more one-sided!

The cultivators who had retreated to the entrance shook their heads as well.

Just like Leo and the others could see, they too recognized Yang Tian’s strength, yet if Leo’s group of four joined forces with Kate, the battle would be on an entirely different level!

Facing five adversaries alone?

Just thinking about it made Yang Tian’s arrogance seem absurd!

"What’s wrong? Are you unwilling to make a move? In that case, let me begin!"

Just as the crowd shook their heads at Yang Tian’s arrogance, Yang Tian calmly drew the Heavenly Slash Demon Saber sideways, resting it upon his knees. His hands slowly pushed forward as he coolly declared, "Slaughter Demon Second Style: Evil-breaking!"

Boom!

In an instant, wild Devil Essence energy surged out like a shockwave, released from Yang Tian’s hands and sweeping toward Kate and the others.

"Arrogant! Absolutely arrogant!"

Seeing Yang Tian daring to attack all five of them directly, the Lion King Leo’s face turned pale with rage!

He turned swiftly to glance at the Evil God Kate and exclaimed, "Kate, although we five have our disputes, we are all Westerners! We cannot let an Eastern martial artist act so arrogantly!"

Wendy, Master Gandhi, and Jerman nodded coldly in agreement.

The Evil God Kate crossed his arms and silently watched Yang Tian’s incoming attack. At last, he spoke arrogantly: "There’s no need. If he can survive this move of mine, we can discuss other matters afterward!"

With that, Evil God Kate extended his hand into the void and scattered the seven-colored radiance gathered around his palm, tossing it toward Yang Tian like scattered beans.

"It appeared! It’s here! We finally get to see this move!"

Someone near the entrance cried out in excitement upon seeing Kate’s action.

A short-haired cultivator next to him turned and curiously asked, "What is this move of Lord Kate’s? Why does it seem like it’s lacking in killing power?"

"Lacking in killing power?"

The excited cultivator chuckled and replied, "It seems you don’t know much about Lord Kate! This is none other than his ultimate move, the Evil God Burst!"

"Evil God Burst? Just those seven-colored lights?" The short-haired cultivator grew even more perplexed.

The surrounding crowd turned curious eyes on the man as well. Seeing everyone’s interest, he began to explain, "Evil God Kate’s Evil God Burst may not look as ornate as some moves, but its power is unrivaled! Each speck of seven-colored radiance is like a miniature C4 explosive, capable of annihilating enemies on a molecular, even atomic and proton, level. Those struck are wholly cleansed, essentially erased from existence!"

On a molecular, atomic, and proton level?

The crowd inhaled sharply upon hearing this.

Such devastating power—who could possibly withstand it?

In mid-air, the Fallen Knight Jerman also sneered coldly: "Kate brought out this move right away. It seems the battle is over!"

"Indeed! Arrogance always comes at a price!" Master Gandhi nodded in agreement.

The Lion King Leo and Ice Snow Empress Wendy wore expressions of icy disdain tinged with mockery, as though anticipating Yang Tian’s downfall at the hands of Kate’s technique.

Sure enough, as the seven-colored radiance touched Yang Tian’s Evil-breaking shockwave, it instantly dissipated the Devil Essence energy before continuing forward, unimpeded, to envelop Yang Tian completely. Then, an intense light flared, entirely swallowing Yang Tian.

Seeing this, the Evil God Kate smirked coldly as he slowly descended, ceasing his attack. He said indifferently, "The fool is dead. Let’s now discuss the division of the treasures."

Dead?

The crowd heard his words and felt uneasy. After all, Yang Tian was a Divine-level expert; could he truly be killed with a single move?

Yet, deep down, they felt compelled to believe Kate’s claim.

Especially those who understood the power of Evil God Burst—they looked at Kate’s form with unrestrained awe.

Leo and the others also slowly descended to the ground, with Jerman sneering disdainfully, "What kind of Divine-level expert? Nothing but that!"

"Heh. Kate’s Evil God Burst attacks one’s very essence. Its power leaves no room for evasion. Even the Divine-level cannot overcome it!" Leo remarked, a subtle glint of fear flashing in his eyes as he glanced at Kate.

Wendy and Master Gandhi both nodded slightly.

Because they knew that Evil God Burst penetrated a target’s core, when they saw Yang Tian wrapped up in its radiance, they were certain of his death.

Until now, no one struck head-on by Evil God Burst had ever survived!

Jerman even licked his lips after speaking, gazing eastward with a smirk, "With Mr. Yang gone and Shen Bangguo in seclusion, this is an excellent moment to head to China!"

An excellent moment?

The others sneered coldly upon hearing his plan.

Though cultivators couldn’t withstand heavy weapons like missiles or hydrogen bombs, these five weren’t targets easily contained by standard units either.

As long as they didn’t overstep too much, even inside China’s borders, it was unlikely that hydrogen bombs or similar weapons would be deployed there!
