A flash of ruthless determination crossed Tang Hao's eyes; he could no longer care about his internal injuries!
"You forced my hand!"
"Ring Explosion! Great Sumeru Hammer!"
Tang Hao roared, and the first six spirit rings on his body exploded instantly!
The violent power of the spirit rings turned into a wave of destructive energy, madly surging into the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand!
At this moment, Tang Hao's aura briefly Breakthrough the limit, reaching an extremely terrifying height.
But he didn't unleash this life-risking strike to face Zhao Yun.
Instead, he suddenly turned around, swinging the Clear Sky Hammer radiating a destructive red light, and fiercely attacked the nearby Female Dormitory Building!
Besieging Wei to Rescue Zhao!
Since Zhao Yun came to protect Xiao Wu.
Then he couldn't possibly stand by and watch the Female Dormitory Building where Xiao Wu was located be smashed into ruins by this hammer!
As long as Zhao Yun went to save her, Tang Hao would take the opportunity to escape at his fastest speed!
Facing this world-destroying hammer strike aimed at the dormitory building.
Zhao Yun's eyes narrowed; though angry, he didn't hesitate for a moment.
He had no way to pursue Tang Hao and could only forcibly interrupt his offensive.
"Eighth Spirit Ability, Immovable as a Mountain!"
Zhao Yun's figure flashed, blocking the front of the dormitory building, and the spear in his hand was suddenly thrust into the ground.
A massive, invisible barrier condensed from silver lightning and Protective Aura instantly rose!
"Boom!!"
The terrifying power of the Great Sumeru Hammer slammed heavily into the defensive barrier, erupting in a deafening, earth-shattering roar!
However, Tang Hao had ultimately underestimated the true strength of a Level 99 super Douluo!
The Great Sumeru Hammer he unleashed by exploding his first six rings, though grand in scale, had a power at most comparable to the full-strength strike of a Level 96 Super Douluo.
And a mere Level 96 Super Douluo's attack, in front of the Dual-core Level 99 Super Douluo Zhao Yun.
Was simply not enough to look at!
Therefore, while Zhao Yun held up the Absolute Defensive Barrier, he actually had the spare energy to change his move!
With a flick of his wrist, his spear moved like a Dragon, forcibly separating a solid silver Spear Phantom from the defensive barrier!
This Spear Phantom was like a bolt of lightning piercing the night sky, carrying a sharp edge that could penetrate everything, and attacked Tang Hao—who had already taken the chance to flee hundreds of meters away—with incredible speed!
The violent shockwave swept through the surroundings outside the defensive barrier, sending sand and stones flying and snapping trees, yet it failed to shake Zhao Yun's defense in the slightest.
Just as Tang Hao expected, he would not allow the female dormitory and Xiao Wu inside to be affected in the least.
After Zhao Yun steadily blocked this Great Sumeru Hammer attack and the surrounding dust gradually dispersed.
Zhao Yun's figure appeared like Gui Mei hundreds of meters away, at the exact spot where Tang Hao had just been hit by his Spear Phantom.
However, only a shocking pool of blood remained on the spot, and in the center of the blood, a thick severed arm had fallen!
It was a right arm severed at the shoulder—it was Tang Hao's right arm!
As for Tang Hao himself, he had already vanished without a trace under the cover of the night.
Zhao Yun put away the Dragon Gallant Bright Silver Spear and looked coldly in the direction Tang Hao had fled.
He spat hard on the ground, his eyes full of disdain and contempt for such behavior.
"The dignified Clear Sky Douluo has actually stooped to the point of attacking innocent people to gain a chance to escape."
"This person is truly shameless!"
Then, Zhao Yun bent down, picked up the severed arm Tang Hao left behind, and stored it in his spirit tool.
Within his perception, he clearly sensed that there was actually a high-quality Spirit Bone within this right arm!
Having lost this right arm fused with a high-grade Spirit Bone, Tang Hao's strength would surely suffer a devastating blow.
His cultivation would likely drop directly from the Titled Douluo Realm to the Spirit Douluo Realm.
The pain of the severed arm, combined with the drop in Realm, could be considered a significant lesson for this shameless fellow.
...
And the brief but extremely terrifying collision between Zhao Yun and Tang Hao.
The earth-shattering roar and violent spirit power fluctuations quickly attracted the attention of others within the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Especially some female students in the female dormitory.
They were startled awake by the loud noise and poked their heads out of the windows one after another, their eyes bleary yet filled with terror as they tried to see what had happened.
However, with their level generally being only that of a Spirit Grandmaster or Spirit Elder, how could they possibly see Zhao Yun's figure high in the sky in the dark of night?
They could only see the lingering glow of lightning in the distant sky.
At this time, Zhao Yun, having completed his task, had already concealed his aura and appeared unnoticed inside the dormitory room where Xiao Wu was.
Xiao Wu had also been startled by the commotion outside just now and was preparing to go out and check.
Looking at Zhao Yun who suddenly appeared in the room, Xiao Wu was first startled, then asked curiously, "Uncle Zhao? Why are you here?"
"Did something happen outside just now?"
Zhao Yun looked at Xiao Wu, a gentle smile appearing on his stern face. "Young Miss Xiao Wu was startled."
Zhao Yun said in a calm tone, "Just now, a small-time crook at the Titled Douluo level tried to sneak into the academy to harm you."
"But now, that person has been driven away by me."
"Furthermore, I conveniently severed his right arm as punishment."
"Presumably, after this painful lesson, your safety should no longer be threatened by that person."
Hearing this, Xiao Wu suddenly gasped.
"A Titled Douluo?!"
"And he even had an arm severed by Uncle Zhao before fleeing?!"
Fortunately, Lin Yuan's teacher was here, otherwise she would have been in danger.
And the only one who could have designs on her would be Tang Hao!
Because of her Spirit Beast identity, the only Titled Douluo she currently knew of was Tang Hao.
The huge commotion here naturally also alerted the three Committee Members responsible for the daily management of the academy.
Meng Shenji, Bai Baoshan, and Zhilin, the three Spirit Douluos, were rushing towards the back mountain in a hurry, preparing to investigate the situation.
In the shadows, Zhao Yun directly condensed his voice into a line and transmitted it to the three of them.
"Committee Members, a Titled Douluo of unknown origin suddenly launched an attack on the academy."
"He has now been driven away by me, and the crisis is resolved."
"You don't need to worry; just reassure the students."
Hearing this, Meng Shenji and the other two, who were hurrying along, stopped abruptly, their faces turning pale with shock.
The three of them looked at each other, seeing deep shock in each other's eyes.
So late at night, a powerhouse at the Titled Douluo level actually tried to attack the female dormitory!
And this matter actually alerted the mysterious teacher behind Lin Yuan!
Soon, these three old foxes, who had lived for half a lifetime, connected the key points.
The only one in that Female Dormitory Building who could make Lin Yuan's teacher personally take action to protect was Xiao Wu, who was extremely close to Lin Yuan!
