"Clang!"

Xu Nian's blood-colored dragon scale arm collided with the Golden Level Puppet's meteorite iron, sparking a brilliant display of sparks.

The hardness of the blood-colored dragon scales was already comparable to meteorite iron, so Xu Nian did not fall behind in the confrontation with the Golden Level Puppet.

Moreover, with both spiritual energy and Gang Qi bolstering the blood-colored dragon scales, his punch was terrifyingly formidable.

"Boom boom boom!"

The two fists collided, emitting a sonic boom that was frighteningly loud.

"Bang!"

Another fierce collision occurred, causing both Xu Nian and the Golden Level Puppet to retreat several steps.

"Human, your body is strong and your spiritual cultivation is decent, but even so, you still cannot defeat me. Don't forget, I am a puppet with intelligence and the ability to practice combat skills," the cold voice of the Golden Level Puppet rang out again.

Then Xu Nian saw a dazzling light burst forth from its chest, seemingly a powerful force emerging.

"What is this power? How can it manipulate spiritual energy?"

Chen An exclaimed in shock from the sidelines.

The power of this Golden Level Puppet was already terrifying, and now it could even utilize spiritual energy to execute combat skills?

"I've read ancient texts, which briefly mentioned that Ancient Sages used things like Demon Beast Crystal Cores as the power sources for puppets. Through the use of runes, they could exert tremendous combat strength, with some even rivaling Saints," Zhao Yanyun pondered before speaking up.

"Puppets rivaling Saints?" Chen Yao and others showed surprised expressions.

They had not expected puppets to become so powerful.

Xu Nian also showed a hint of surprise in his eyes; he had just examined this Golden Level Puppet and found a Demon Beast Crystal Core embedded deep within its chest. The spiritual energy was indeed coming from that core.

"What a miraculous method. I hadn't realized puppetry could be so magical," Xu Nian thought to himself admiringly.

Using the Demon Beast Crystal Core to power the puppet was a brilliantly ingenious design.

A powerful surge of spiritual energy rose from the Golden Level Puppet, and as this energy enveloped it, it burst forth with dazzling golden light, its aura incredibly majestic.

"Take this punch, and you win," the Golden Level Puppet said coldly.

Xu Nian smiled lightly, his arm trembling as a meteorite iron hammer appeared in his hand, proudly saying, "If you can take this strike from my hammer, I will also consider you the winner."

Having spoken, a powerful authority radiated from Xu Nian, with his Talent Phenomenon Map suddenly materializing.

"Talent Phenomenon? Is this boy also of special constitution? But why haven't I seen this phenomenon map before?" Chen Xuanlong's expression changed, his face showing shock.

He hadn't expected Xu Nian to possess a Talent Phenomenon.

Of course, the shock wasn't limited to him; Chen An and Chen Yao also showed surprised expressions as this was their first time seeing Xu Nian display his Talent Phenomenon.

"Alright, take this punch. Mid Grade Heavenly Rank Battle Technique, Sky-shattering Fist!" the Golden Level Puppet bellowed, and immediately his fist radiated a brilliant light.

A powerful fluctuation washed out from his fist, causing Zhao Yanyun and the others to feel a chill in their hearts.

The fist, like a dragon emerging from the sea, pierced through the void, carrying a terrifying sonic boom as it hammered towards Xu Nian.

"What a strong punch, this punch is enough to kill a Peak of One-star Battle General level Demon Beast," Zhao Yanyun and others thought in surprise, their gaze towards Xu Nian becoming worried.

However, Xu Nian showed no fear at all, his eyes brimming with strong fighting spirit.

A profound aura emitted from his body, as if not a man, but rather a towering giant mountain stood there.

The force of heaven and earth, Heavy Mountain!

Xu Nian stepped forward, the hard platform beneath instantly shattered as if a towering mountain suddenly smashed down.

At the same time, Xu Nian's hand swung the iron hammer like a meteor falling from the sky, crashing down suddenly.

The hammer tore through the air and due to the extreme friction with the air, it burned like a fireball, turning entirely red as blood, the terrifying power even more fearsome.

"What... what kind of attack is this?" The spectators outside the arena suddenly widened their eyes, showing an expression of utter shock.

As they were still in shock, Xu Nian's hammer had already collided with the fist of the Golden Level Puppet.

"Boom!"

Like a hundred thousand thunders exploding, a sky-shattering noise erupted.

A terrifying energy whipped up a fearsome storm, directly blasting Zhao Yanyun and others away.

As the storm subsided, Zhao Yanyun and the others raised their heads, looking forward.

They wanted to see the outcome of this battle.

But the scene that came into view shocked them immensely.

Xu Nian, holding his Meteorite Iron Hammer, stood proudly, his battle prowess evident in the surging Gang Qi.

The Golden Level Puppet, on the other hand, had been blown off the platform by the hammer strike, its body denting the wall.

"Won... has he won?"

Chen An and the others widened their eyes, showing a look of astonishment.

Xu Nian had actually defeated a Golden Level Puppet.

Wasn't that just too powerful?

Zhao Yanyun and others were also astonished.

Such a formidable Golden Level Puppet had actually been defeated by Xu Nian of the Nine-star War Sect.

Chen Xuanlong was also extremely surprised; his perception was much more incisive than that of Zhao Yanyun and the others.

The hammer strike Xu Nian had used clearly reached the peak of the first realm of cosmic influence among the three great realms.

So young, yet with such high cultivation and comprehension of realms, just how monstrous is this youth?

Xu Nian did not pay attention to the astonished gazes of the spectators, and instead put away his hammer.

Still, he couldn't help but spit out a trace of blood from his mouth.

The punch from the Golden Level Puppet just now was too powerful; although he had blocked it, the resulting shock still injured his organs.

"Xu Nian, are you alright?" Zhao Yanyun and Chen Yao quickly came forward to ask with concern.

"I'm fine, it's just a minor injury, nothing serious," Xu Nian reassured them with a wave of his hand.

However, his gaze still fell on the Golden Level Puppet in front.

The Golden Level Puppet had only been blasted away; its body was not damaged, and this was a Golden Level Puppet suppressing its realm. The pinnacle strength of this puppet was clearly more than a One-star Battle General.

At this moment, the Golden Level Puppet also climbed out from the shattered wall and walked toward Xu Nian.

Zhao Yanyun and the others showed wary and fearful expressions on their faces.

However, what the Golden Level Puppet did next took them by surprise.

"I am Black Gold, at your service, Master!" The Golden Level Puppet kneeled on one knee, its voice resounding powerfully.

Chen An and the others showed expressions of astonishment mingled with joy. The Golden Level Puppet was paying homage to Xu Nian as its master; did that mean it had completely conceded defeat?

A smile appeared on Xu Nian's face, then he curiously asked, "You are called Black Gold? What is your peak strength?"

"Replying to master, Black Gold was the name given by my previous master, and my peak strength is as a Nine-star Battle General," the Golden Level Puppet said.

Zhao Yanyun and the others looked at Xu Nian with surprise and envy.

A puppet at the level of Nine-star Battle General was unquestionably an unbeatable entity below Marquis Level.

Now this killing machine had become a subordinate of Xu Nian?

Xu Nian himself was slightly astonished; the strength of this Golden Level Puppet was even greater than he had imagined.

However, with this puppet, he had undoubtedly gained yet another powerful trump card.
