Punch shatters school

When I punched the ground, Haven collapsed. I felt loadbearing areas crack and then shatter, floors ripple and writhe before exploding outright, and entire sections collapse inwards. Not just the tunnels but the entire Zggurat atop it shuddered and began to sink inward, breaking apart under the touch of the various stresses. Above me, I could sense Adam reacting, gathering his power in lightning fast slashes that destroyed rubble and walls alike as they got in his way. Without so much as a flash of fear, he navigated through the openings in the collapsing building, making his own when there were none to be found, and hopped quickly from falling rock to falling rock as he rose counter to the fall and used it to reach the surface.

Far beneath him, I noted the path he’d taken and then took a more direct route.

When I used Bai Hu’s Lunge, what little was left of the floors that had not already been destroyed was obliterated. With the force granted by the skill, I pierced through everything in my path like a bullet, letting stone break harmlessly against my skin even as it assisted me in slowing down. Only when I could see the sky did I bother making adjustments, using a single Yellow Road and some quick calculations to shift towards Adam’s path. Landing beside him as he touched down on the ground around Haven, I matched his pace with ease.

“So you’re pretty mad, then?” I asked casually.

“I’m filled with a bottomless well of eternal, burning hatred,” Adam replied blandly. “It doesn’t have anything to do with your skill, though.”
