Chapter 288 - Chapter 288 Mental Pressure, Tai Tan Cries After Being Beaten Up

[Although they watched as their Family's face was about to be completely lost, Niu Gao and the others found that they were helpless.]

[They couldn't possibly violate their previous agreement and intervene in this battle now, could they?]

[If they did that, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect would definitely pursue the matter to the end.]

[Coming to cause trouble without being in the right, and then violating the agreed-upon battle method afterward.]

[Never mind the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect; even they themselves would be too ashamed to speak of such things.]

[So, the few of them could only look at each other, staying in place with grim expressions.]

[Under everyone's gaze, the battle between Yu Xiaogang and Tai Tan continued.]

[Yu Xiaogang fought more and more smoothly; he even used a Self-Created Spirit Ability he had recently researched halfway through.]

[The name of this Self-Created Spirit Ability is Mental Pressurization.]

[Simply put, it is a special attack formed by mixing mental power into a physical attack while using Soul Power.]

[This special attack can be applied to any form of offense.]

[For example, during close-quarters combat, attaching this special power to one's fists.]

[Or when releasing long-range attacks, mixing mental power into the Soul Power.]

[And the effect of this move is very gratifying.]

[People hit by this Self-Created Spirit Ability will feel their spirit become exceptionally heavy, as if they are enduring some immense pressure.]

[This pressure causes the opponent to become timid and overthink due to fear.]

[And this gives Yu Xiaogang opportunities to attack.]

[Furthermore, through sparring with Lin Lang, Yu Xiaogang discovered that as the combination of Mental Energy and physical attack in Mental Pressurization becomes more perfect, the mental pressure it brings to the opponent will become even stronger.]

[Yu Xiaogang has a premonition that if he continues to research this Self-Created Spirit Ability, he will definitely master a remarkable Spirit Ability in the future.]

[If it can already make an opponent timid during battle now, then once this move is fully developed, wouldn't he be able to directly crush the enemy from a mental level?]

[After tasting the dramatic changes caused by integrating Mental Energy into physical attacks, Yu Xiaogang naturally wouldn't forget to try it the other way around.]

[Integrating physical attacks into his Mental Energy to form a new Self-Created Spirit Ability.]

[Unfortunately, Yu Xiaogang has not yet developed this move.]

[Right now, in the battle with Tai Tan, Yu Xiaogang is honing his Mental Pressurization.]

[As every move and style constantly collided with Tai Tan, Yu Xiaogang's mastery of Mental Pressurization also became increasingly refined.]

[So for a moment, Yu Xiaogang was even reluctant to end this battle.]

[After all, such a good punching bag is truly hard to come by.]

[On the other side, being constantly attacked by Yu Xiaogang's Mental Pressurization, Tai Tan's spirit was being continuously damaged without his knowledge, and his mental pressure was also rising rapidly.]

[From the initial determination filled with hatred, vowing to avenge his son.]

[To the middle, where he discovered he actually couldn't beat Yu Xiaogang, and thus began to doubt life, doubt himself, and doubt everything.]

[By now, fear had already begun to take hold in Tai Tan's heart.]

[In the process of doubting, he couldn't help but think of the consequences of this battle.]

[Regardless of victory or defeat, it would be a huge price to pay for himself and his Sect.]

[If he wins, he has to face the angry Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and Thunder Douluo.]

[At that time, even if the Clear Sky Sect protects them, how could they possibly pay no price at all?]

[And if the Clear Sky Sect is unwilling to protect their Family, the result would be even more tragic.]

[If he loses, he will die at the hands of Yu Xiaogang.]

[This would similarly lead to a series of consequences.]

[First, if he dies and his son Tai Nuo is crippled, then as his father and Tai Nuo's grandfather, Tai Shan would step in.]

[Protecting one's own is a Family tradition.]

[At that time, his father would seek out Yu Xiaogang; with his father's strength, he could certainly defeat Yu Xiaogang.]

[But the problem is, doesn't this bring them back to the situation where he wins?]

[His Family would still have to face the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and Thunder Douluo.]

[So, has their Strength Clan fallen into a dead end because of his actions?]

[It can only be said that during battle, the thoughts triggered by fear and dread can truly destroy someone who was originally full of Battle Intent.]

[Just like the current Tai Tan; as his mental pressure continued to increase, the more he thought, the more he feared the future.]

[So the more he fought, the more stiff his movements became.]

[Several times, he failed to dodge attacks that he clearly could have avoided because of his stiff body.]

[On this basis, like a chain reaction, Tai Tan became more cowardly and weaker as he fought; in the end, the anger and hatred in his eyes completely vanished.]

[Leaving only a look of panic and confusion.]

["What's wrong with that Big Gorilla?"]

[In the distance, Niu Gao and the others had noticed Tai Tan's abnormality since a moment ago, and this abnormality became more intense as time passed.]

[They could hardly believe their eyes.]

[After all, Tai Tan, who had always been known for his bravery and was fearless, was actually showing such a panicked expression now.]

[And that way of fighting—several times when Yu Xiaogang revealed a flaw, Tai Tan actually shrunk back halfway through his punch.]

[Good grief, is this still the Tai Tan they knew?]

["Is it the effect of that Yu Xiaogang's Spirit Ability?"]

["Otherwise, I can't imagine why that Big Gorilla Tai Tan would become like this."]

[Yang Wudi's expression was grave.]

[As the battle continued, making the opponent fearful and cowardly... with such a Spirit Ability, who would dare to fight a battle of attrition with Yu Xiaogang in the future?]

[Wouldn't that become a battle destined to be lost?]

[Normal battles consume Soul Power, but why does it consume courage with you?]

[Simply ridiculous!]

["So, isn't Tai Tan certain to lose?"]

[Previously, when they noticed Tai Tan falling into a disadvantage, they thought the only possibility of winning was for Tai Tan and Yu Xiaogang to wear each other down until Yu Xiaogang's Soul Power was exhausted.]

[With such monstrous combat power, surely Yu Xiaogang's Soul Power couldn't be more abundant than Tai Tan's, right?]

[But looking at it now, the Soul Power probably won't run out; after all, looking at Tai Tan's posture, if they keep fighting, he might just break down completely.]

[At that time, with Yu Xiaogang's full combat strength, it would be easy to deal with Tai Tan.]

[And the facts were indeed as Niu Gao and the others expected.]

[As the battle continued, after another collision, a certain string in Tai Tan's brain seemed to finally snap.]

[The man who was like an iron tower actually had tears flow uncontrollably from his eyes.]

[Seeing Yu Xiaogang launch an attack again, in his terror, Tai Tan's feet stumbled and he sat on the ground.]

["No, don't, don't come over here, aaaaaah!"]

[The fearful voice rang in everyone's ears; everyone showed an unbelievable expression, and even the perpetrator, Yu Xiaogang, hadn't expected Tai Tan to turn out like this.]

[More importantly, the attack in his hand was executed with full force, assuming Tai Tan could block it.]

[Thus, this move became a finishing blow for Tai Tan.]

["Tai Tan!"]

["Big Gorilla!"]

["Stop!"]

[Shocked and anxious voices rang from the mouths of Niu Gao and the others.]

[But Yu Xiaogang's attack had already descended.]

[Just when everyone thought Tai Tan's blood would splatter on the spot.]

[Boom!]

[A figure even stronger than Tai Tan appeared in front of him.]

[The attack hit, but it didn't cause a ripple.]

[But the attacking Yu Xiaogang only felt his scalp go numb.]

["Die!"]

[With a roar, a fist grew larger in Yu Xiaogang's eyes; from that fist, Yu Xiaogang felt an aura of death.]

[That was an enemy he absolutely could not contend with.]
