Before, even just being hit by an attack from Uppecia's later stage was enough to send Lachlan flying. But this time, when the attack from Core Formationt's early stage came, Lachlan only took a few steps back.
After standing still, he looked nothing like someone who had been seriously injured. There was no sign of his previous injuries.
Everyone present was shocked to see Lachlan in this state and made various strange sounds and gasps of surprise.
Patrick and Hugo from the Wood family were particularly stunned while Arlo stared at Lachlan as if he had seen a ghost. Phoebe frowned slightly with surprise while Isabel and other judges on the high platform also looked shocked.
Lachlan suppressed his strength at the mid-stage of Uppecia, which was the level he displayed when using True Energy. Therefore, even though Isabel and the others had much higher strength than Lachlan, they couldn't see his true depth.
The protective True Energy on Lachlan's body, which withstood the attack of the early-stage Core Formation, was formed based on his mid-stage Uppecia strength. The main reason he could withstand it was his extraordinary physical strength. His body, nourished and transformed by Dragon Energy, had the same physical strength as an early-stage Core Formation expert, so naturally, he could withstand the attack of the early-stage Core Formation.
That was why he concealed his true strength. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't even need to retreat.
"Hoo..."
The entire scene was shocked, except for Savannah and Sophie, who let out a long breath.
At this moment, Hugo let out a mournful cry and ran towards Jackson's body, lifting it up. "Ah! Jackson! Jackson, wake up..."
He shook Jackson's body frantically and then glared at Lachlan with a shocked and angry expression.
"Why... why aren't you dead? Jackson is dead, why are you still alive? Why? You're just at the mid-stage of Uppecia, right? Jackson was at the late stage of Uppecia and was killed. Why are you acting like nothing happened?"
"Damn it! Damn it! Is there something wrong with these bronze figures?" Hugo shouted.
Hearing this, Lachlan sneered, "Who told you that if Jackson died at the late stage of Uppecia, I, at the mid-stage of Uppecia, must die too? Can't I have abnormal defensive power?"
Isabel on the elevated platform coldly said to Hugo, "If you suspect that there's something wrong with the bronze figures, you can try the attack Landon just endured! Are you from the Wood family suspecting the fairness of Hudpids Sect?"
Hugo's face showed a mix of grief and anger, but he moved his mouth without daring to reply.
Patrick quickly waved his hand, "No, we from the Wood family absolutely have no such intentions!"
At this moment, Hugo, with red eyes, stared fiercely at Lachlan and said, "You bastard! If you can withstand the attacks of the Core Formation Realm, why did you look heavily injured when facing the peak of the late stage of Uppecia? You intentionally plotted to kill Jackson!"
Lachlan spat out a mouthful of blood and said, "That's right, even if I plotted to kill him, so what? I just used a countermeasure. Can't you guys think of plotting against me and killing me? Blame yourselves for being fools! Who told you that coughing up blood means I'm injured? I just have a bit too much blood, and I like spitting it out for fun. What's it to you?"
After hearing this, Hugo trembled with anger, pointing at Lachlan and said, "You... you're so despicable!"
The members of the Wood family were almost jumping with anger.
The scene was in an uproar!
Everyone almost felt like spitting blood themselves... S
pitting blood for fun? Damn, this guy was too sinister.
Everyone thought he was just a reckless youth provoked by the Wood family brothers, but it turned out that wasn't the case at all.
He was pretending! Pretending to be injured and crazy! This guy was clear-headed from beginning to end.
