Sword God in a World of Magic

The entire room remained quiet.

No one dared to say anything while King Skythunder spoke.

Shang took a deep breath through his nose, narrowed his eyes, and walked forward.

Shang's light footsteps echoed throughout the silent throne room.

The walk was painfully long since there was still quite some distance between him and King Skythunder.

During the walk, Shang was uncertain about what was waiting for him.

After several seconds, Shang stopped in front of the steps to King Skythunder's throne.

"I don't like repeating myself," King Skythunder said in his deep voice.

Then, Shang slowly walked up the steps.

At this moment, Shang felt like he was climbing a mountain.

Approaching the Thunder Horse wouldn't have been nearly as difficult as approaching King Skythunder.

The Thunder Horse didn't show any aggression as long as it didn't see Shang, but King Skythunder gave off a terrifying pressure.

Walking up to him felt like one was provoking him.

A couple of steps later, Shang arrived on top of the platform, and he stopped just one meter in front of King Skythunder.

The others still didn't dare to say anything.

King Skythunder looked evenly into Shang's eyes.

"Punch me with your full power."

Shang's eyes narrowed even more, and he clenched his fists.

Right now, Shang knew that he was in a lot of danger.

He had no idea how far he should go.

If Shang used too little power, King Skythunder might get annoyed again since Shang hadn't followed his orders.

What place should he punch?

The chest?

The face?

At that moment, Shang remembered his first meeting with the God.

Would King Skythunder even care?

Shang knew that he couldn't injure King Skythunder, even if he used Entropy to sacrifice his entire body.

It was impossible for him to injure him.

BANG!

An icy explosion came out of Shang's feet, and he exploded forward with all of his speed.

He pulled his arm back.

And then, he punched forward.
