Unlike the incredibly fast and silent Kiba Yuuto, the moment Sorata threw a punch with terrifying power and supersonic speed, layers of transparent ripples spread out in front of his fist. That was the fist pressure created by the power being too pure and condensed, an astonishing phenomenon that materialized the air.
Under this terrifying power, the air within a few meters in front solidified, forming a terrifying field that almost froze Kiba Yuuto in place, unable to move. At the same time, a powerful fist intent burst forth as Sorata's punch was thrown, transforming into a fist imprint that blotted out the sky in Kiba Yuuto's eyes, a mental suppression.
Unstoppable.
Facing Sorata's sky-obscuring fist, this thought instantly flashed through Kiba Yuuto's mind. His hairs stood on end, and he smelled the scent of death.
"Haah..." Facing this situation, the battle-experienced Kiba Yuuto did not choose to retreat, because there was nowhere to retreat. His eyes widened, bloodshot, and he let out a roar, instantly unleashing all the power in his body without regard for the consequences.
Whoosh!!
A violent magical power erupted from Kiba Yuuto's body, forming a black radiance that enveloped him. At the same time, a pair of demon wings unfurled from his back, his aura rising another level. Unleashing his full power, Kiba Yuuto instantly broke free from Sorata's only preliminary condensed fist intent suppression. The magic sword in his hand emitted a dazzling light, and the sword aura on it transformed into a black sword shadow five meters long, slashing down towards Sorata.
Countless small wind blades surrounded the black sword shadow, cutting through the air and making a sizzling sound, its momentum extremely astonishing.
Since he couldn't block it head-on, he would attack head-on. At this moment, a powerful will erupted in Kiba Yuuto's eyes.
"Not good, why is Yuuto so impulsive, using the forbidden art of the magic sword? What if..." Akeno exclaimed in surprise.
"Quickly separate them, something's going to happen." The moment the two exchanged blows, they displayed a life-and-death struggle stance, which startled Rias, who was about to fly over to stop them.
"It's too late." Koneko, looking at Sorata's jade-like fist carrying world-destroying power, shook her head solemnly.
Rumble!!
The moment the fist and sword made contact, an indescribable terrifying power erupted from Sorata's fist. Within a hundred meters, there was a tangible feeling of the world turning upside down and the earth sinking.
Immediately afterward, a thunderous explosion rang out, like hundreds of tons of high explosives suddenly detonating. Kiba Yuuto's black sword aura instantly shattered, the ground broke apart, spiderweb cracks spread, and rubble and dust filled the sky, swept in all directions by the shockwave.
This violent aura shocked the three onlookers in the distance, followed by worry as they stared intently at the center of the battlefield obscured by smoke and dust.
Suddenly, a gust of wind dispersed the smoke and dust, revealing Sorata inside, unharmed and slowly retracting his fist. At Sorata's feet in front was a large crater more than a meter deep, shaped like a flared trumpet and reaching seven or eight meters in diameter. The ground around the edge of the crater was covered with spiderweb cracks, and further away was the very miserable Kiba Yuuto, propping himself up with his sword, half-kneeling in the ruins.
At this moment, Kiba Yuuto's clothes were tattered, his face pale with a wry smile, bloodstains at the corners of his mouth, and his handsome golden medium-short hair was a mess like an exploded mop.
"Cough cough... thank you for holding back, Kanda-kun," Kiba Yuuto raised his head and said with a wry smile, his eyes dim and filled with disappointment.
"Sorry, it was my first time attacking, I didn't control my power well," Sorata said with an apologetic look.
At this time, Akeno quickly unfurled her wings and flew in front of Kiba Yuuto, her hands emitting healing magic power to treat him, while Rias walked over with Koneko, looking at Sorata with some amazement.
"Although I've always known that awakened beings are strong, Kanda-kun, you are still somewhat stronger than I expected."
"Not at all, it should be that Kiba-kun was a bit careless."
A glint flashed in Rias's eyes, and she smiled. "There's no need to be modest, Kanda-kun. Yuuto, who has the strength of a high-ranking devil, couldn't even withstand one of your punches. It's not a matter of carelessness."
"Let's compare strength sometime," Koneko said, looking at Sorata's hand, speaking to him proactively for the first time.
In the distance, Akeno was healing Kiba Yuuto, and the other three stood aside waiting.
'Is this the Ming Jin of Chinese martial arts? Not bad indeed. Just thirty percent of my power concentrated and unleashed almost reached one hundred percent of its potential, and the power is as condensed as steel, controlled at will.'
Sorata was very satisfied with this punch.
Chinese martial arts was a pure force-generating combat technique that Sorata learned in the second mission world, Longshe Yizhi, after he first entered the Nightmare Space. And Ming Jin was the first level of it, training the power of the whole body to concentrate it. When a punch was struck out, the air exploded, its power astonishing. The saying "A thousand gold coins can't buy a sound" refers to the realm of Ming Jin.
And this was only the initial entry into Chinese martial arts. Behind it were realms like An Jin, Hua Jin, Dan Jin, and Gang Jin.
Normally, with Sorata's understanding of power, this low-level, purely physical combat technique should have been fully mastered within two days. However, the growth of Kryptonian power was too fast, so fast that Sorata couldn't perfectly condense all the power in his body to reach the level of Hua Jin's "condensed power like silk."
Just like when Sorata did morning exercises for a while and reached the An Jin level, after attending most of the day's classes, his body's power surged again, and the control over the newly condensed power dropped back to the Ming Jin level.
"However, there seems to be a problem with the power system of this world." Sorata narrowed his eyes slightly, his mind flashing rapidly as he analyzed the data the opponent had displayed during their brief exchange.
For example, in terms of the aura and realm perception Kiba Yuuto gave him, he was clearly at the third level of the supernatural, but his power was like loose sand. It looked imposing, but it crumbled at the first touch, not even as strong as the second-level supernatural enemy he had encountered back then.
He didn't know if Kiba Yuuto was an exception. If all the supernatural beings in this world possessed power like this, then it would be interesting. Sorata's gaze, seemingly absentminded yet carrying the look of studying an object, turned towards Rias and the others beside him.
While Rias and the others were curious about Sorata's strength, Sorata was actually using them to analyze and collect information about this world. In the past, every time Sorata went to a new and unfamiliar world, he would first lie low and carefully collect data and analyze information to know himself and his enemy. This way of acting had become an instinct.
...
No matter where you are, no matter how you promote equality and fraternity, only strength will earn you respect and importance. This is an eternal truth.
For example, at this moment, the way Rias and the others looked at Sorata after returning to the activity room had changed.
The originally proud gaze, stemming from their noble birth and knowing too much, which subconsciously hinted at arrogance, had turned into equality, even faintly carrying a trace of awe that they themselves hadn't noticed.
They were all completely shocked by the domineering fighting style Sorata had displayed earlier.
As for whether exposing his strength like that would seem too rash and naive, and whether it would be dangerous if the other party had ill intentions, Sorata would only tell you that you were overthinking it.
After his Kryptonian bloodline transformation was complete, his pure strength had increased by thirty tons the day before yesterday, fifty tons yesterday, and a terrifying sixty tons today in just half a day, reaching two hundred tons of power. In a few days, his strength would have doubled again.
Moreover, the stronger his strength and the more powerful his physique became, the faster his strength would increase, and all aspects of his abilities would also be enhanced. If anyone wanted to do something, Sorata would be very welcome.
Furthermore, he only said that his strength was strong, but he didn't say that he only possessed great strength. He hadn't displayed any other abilities during the fight just now.
At this moment, Sorata suddenly remembered that Shiina Mashiro should be dismissed from school around this time. "Oh right, it's a bit late today, I need to pick someone up. Buchou, everyone, goodbye."
Today's art class was said to have a professor who was specially invited by Suiko Academy to teach and train those elites, which was why Sorata had time to come over and take a look.
"Pick someone up?" The weak Kiba Yuuto and Toujou Koneko looked at Sorata's hurriedly departing figure, somewhat unresponsive.
Akeno's smile remained unchanged, her eyes narrowed slightly. "He should be going to pick up another second-year transfer student like us, the girl he goes to and from school with every day, the one called Shiina Mashiro."
Saying this, Akeno looked at Rias and smiled. "Ara ara! Buchou, maybe you'll be right after all. Kanda-kun might become the next strongest in the human world."
"Akeno-senpai, do you really believe Buchou's words? You know what the strongest represents," Toujou Koneko said expressionlessly, her words a direct jab.
Akeno's smile didn't change as she covered her mouth and chuckled lightly. "You never know. Didn't you notice how calm Kanda-kun has been from the beginning until now? And I'm certain that Kanda-kun didn't know those secrets before."
"Having the strength to defeat a high class devil with a single punch right after awakening, a calm mindset, a seemingly peaceful personality, and actually a firm will." In just a short period of contact, Akeno had seen so many things.
Akeno concluded, "In terms of potential, Kanda-kun is much stronger than us. Only Buchou before her seal could compare to him."
"Akeno sees things very clearly."
"After all, I am your queen. Of course, I have to be attentive. Maybe Kanda-kun can help with matters concerning the Phenex family in the future."
Instantly, Rias's expression changed slightly. After a brief silence, she shook her head. "Don't tell him about this. I don't want to involve unrelated people in my affairs."
"Moreover, what he needs now is time to grow. Apart from us, no one is allowed to reveal Kanda-kun's identity as an awakened being."
