Ghost Catching System

Chu Hao was an Inborn Expert.

Some people had regrets. They had the capital to be arrogant, and now they felt as if their brains had been kicked by a donkey for thinking of denouncing Chu Hao together.

Yet, many more were incensed; Chu Hao had simply gone too far.

Luo Yan muttered, ”This sly youngster, why is he so imposing when facing others?”

Chu Hao said, ”If you ask me, all of you here dare to question me. If I ignore you, you pester me like mad dogs. Do you really think I’m that good-tempered?”

The crowd’s faces grew even more unsightly.

A man from Longhu Mountain, though not an Inborn Expert, held a high position there. He said, ”Taoism is the foundation of the Yin and Yang Realm. After thousands of years of development, what are you, a rogue Yin Yang Master, to speak of our Taoist disciples this way?”

”Exactly! Taoism represents the true power in the Yin and Yang Realm. What are you, a mere rogue, compared to that?”

”Such unashamed boasting! Do you really think you’re invincible?”

Most of the crowd, infuriated by Chu Hao’s words, condemned him with extremely harsh statements.

”Who do you think you are! We demand a clear explanation this time.”

”Humph! Hand over the Ghost Sutras! And also, the True Word Brush of our Taoism does not belong to you.”

”Exactly.”

There’s courage in numbers, especially since there were two Taoist Priests present who were not afraid of Chu Hao in the least.

Chu Hao furrowed his brows. The opposition was overwhelming; a single mouthful of spit from each could drown a person, and some of their comments were particularly distasteful.

Chu Hao also grew angry, saying, ”I’m the one who did the killing, and both the Ghost Sutras and True Word Brush are with me. If you have the guts, come and get them.”

”You!”

The crowd glared in anger, but not a single one moved to strike, though they were plenty vocal.

At that moment, a female Taoist Priest from Qingcheng Mountain said, ”Fellow Daoist, do you look down on Taoism? Why not have a competition?”

Chu Hao looked at the female Taoist Priest. She was quite beautiful, with delicate features like porcelain and an elegant demeanor. He said, ”You really know how to glorify yourselves, bringing all of Taoism to bear against me. Fine! Let me be clear: everyone present is trash. If you disagree, come and fight.”

The crowd was so angered they could have bent over backward.

”I’ll fight you,” Zhang Chenfeng immediately declared.

The female Taoist Priest shook her head and said, ”Fighting and killing are not good. Let’s compete in Yin-Yang Techniques, best two out of three.”

”Then let’s follow the rules of the Yin and Yang Realm and compete in Yin-Yang Techniques,” an elder Taoist from Longhu Mountain added.

A duel was a rule of the Yin and Yang Realm.

The crowd was excited. Duels in the Yin and Yang Realm were rare, and since those who had come today were all prominent figures in the realm, it promised to be an eye-opener.

However, Chu Hao shook his head and said, ”Is there any point to this?”

The female Taoist Priest looked at Chu Hao and asked, ”What do you propose then?”

Chu Hao looked back at her and said, ”You all set up this banquet, waited for me just to cause trouble, and now you want to duel? Do you really think I’m in the mood to play along with you?”

The female Taoist Priest was somewhat speechless. Thinking it over, she realized it was true. Chu Hao could simply walk away; why should he bother with a duel and face the judgmental stares of a crowd?

Chu Hao, with his hands behind his back, said, ”Actually, the only reason I came today was to see if any Taoist experts would show up. The result is disappointing.”

Wang Junshu frowned.

Zhang Chenfeng, who had been displeased for some time, said, ”I’ll fight you.”

Chu Hao looked at him and coldly said, ”You, who have lost to me before? You couldn’t even defeat my Ghost General. Go play somewhere else.”

With these words, everyone was shocked. It turned out that Zhang Chenfeng had already fought Chu Hao and had even lost to a Ghost General.

Seeing the crowd’s murmurs, Zhang Chenfeng felt he was losing face and angrily retorted, ”Chu Hao, I am an Inborn Expert now too! You dare underestimate me?”

Chu Hao said, ”Inborn Experts? I’ve seen plenty, and even killed a few. What makes you think you’re special?”

Zhang Chenfeng, unable to contain his anger, attacked directly.

”Dragon-Tiger Fist!”

Zhang Chenfeng unleashed a torrent of Dragon-Tiger Fist attacks. They were formidable from all angles, his True Qi surging like a raging river. If such a blow landed, it would likely cause instant death.

The crowd’s eyes lit up. Witnessing an Inborn Expert execute the Dragon-Tiger Fist was bound to be immensely beneficial for everyone.

The mighty Dragon-Tiger Fist shot towards him.

Chu Hao sidestepped, dodging the most ferocious punch, and countered with a slap across Zhang Chenfeng’s face.

SMACK!

The crisp sound left everyone dumbstruck.

Zhang Chenfeng, too, was stunned. He retreated, covering his face, his punches having been incredibly fast, yet his opponent had seen through them instantly and even managed to counterattack.

Chu Hao said indifferently, ”Your strength hasn’t improved, but your skin has certainly thickened.”

”DING... The Host has successfully displayed pretentiousness through humiliation, earning 3,000 Pretentiousness Points.”

Level 3 Pretentiousness is just delightful. In no time at all, I’ve already earned 10,000 Pretentiousness Points.

PFFT! Luo Yan, watching from the side, burst out laughing, her face radiant.

The others were stunned. Zhang Chenfeng was an Inborn Expert; theoretically, his strength among his peers should have been unfathomable. Yet, Chu Hao had slapped him, completely nullifying his Dragon-Tiger Fist.

Someone stammered in disbelief, ”No... No way! The Dragon-Tiger Fist was seen through just like that?”

”You saw that right. Isn’t Chu Hao also an Inborn Expert? How can he react so quickly?”

The Taoist priestess from Qingcheng Mountain narrowed her eyes slightly.

Zhang Chenfeng was beside himself with anger. He was an Inborn Expert, a Taoist Priest from Longhu Mountain, and the chosen successor to be the next Longhu Mountain Taoist Master! To be slapped in the face by someone else like this—where was his dignity?

Zhang Chenfeng roared, ”Chu Hao, how dare you humiliate me!”

Chu Hao replied, ”Getting angry from embarrassment already? What were you thinking when you attacked me?”

Zhang Chenfeng didn’t care anymore. He circulated all his True Qi, intent on reclaiming his face.

True Qi was far superior to Inner Strength. When fully unleashed, it was incredibly formidable. Zhang Chenfeng’s clothes fluttered though there was no wind, and his aura became overwhelmingly dominant.

Zhang Chenfeng’s hands transformed into dragon claws as he lunged viciously.

Chu Hao slapped a table. The liquor in the cups leaped up as he struck out with his palm.

The True Qi of someone in the early stages of Foundation Building couldn’t achieve such a feat. Now, his True Qi could hit its mark without fail.

The principle was simple: use True Qi to adhere to the liquid and then strike out fiercely.

Water droplets, like bullets, exploded with astonishing power, sweeping over Zhang Chenfeng.

The latter groaned and was sent flying, landing on the ground and rolling in agony.

Chu Hao withdrew his hand and said, ”If I were you, I’d just bang my head against a wall until I died. You didn’t even check who your opponent was before picking a fight.”

”DING... The Host has successfully shown off, earning 3,000 Pretentiousness Points.”

The scene was shocking, an unparalleled display! What had Chu Hao just done? With a mere gesture, he had knocked Zhang Chenfeng to the ground.

The liquor he had flung was actually that powerful!

The middle-aged Taoist from Qingcheng Mountain, looking astounded, whispered, ”Just how strong is he?”

The Taoist priestess seemed surprised and shook her head, ”I can’t tell either.”

The entire venue fell silent as a graveyard. Those who only understood simple Yin-Yang Techniques were especially stunned into speechlessness. This was the fearsome prowess of a top expert from the Yin and Yang Realm—utterly terrifying!

”Taoist Priest!”

The people from Longhu Mountain rushed forward and helped Zhang Chenfeng up.
