Chapter 175: Chapter 175: One Victory After Another!
Bang!
Fist power surged like a dragon, tearing through the air, producing a violent explosive sound, enveloping Xu Ling.
A hint of astonishment flashed in Xu Lingâs eyes.
Immediately, her steps shifted, her figure abruptly accelerated, disappearing into a blur of light and shadow where she stood.
âSuch incredible speed!â
Gasps of surprise echoed throughout the square, marveling at Xu Lingâs sheer velocity.
Some spectators couldnât even discern her movement, only catching sight of a murky shadow.
âThatâs Fierce Cloud Sectâs Shadow Stepping! Although itâs merely a Four-star Martial Arts technique, paired with Floating Light Palm, it can display power comparable to Five-star Martial Arts!â
Someone recognized the skill and voiced their awe without restraint.
On the arena.
âHehe, you got lucky just now. Pity for you, but catching me is impossible!â
Xu Ling effortlessly dodged Luo Chengâs punch, letting out a smug laugh.
To her, Luo Chengâs earlier attack was pure luckâshe didnât even consider him capable of breaching her movements.
âOh? Perhaps youâre celebrating a bit too early.â
Luo Chengâs face remained expressionless, ignoring the silhouette in front of him. His fist technique changed suddenly, blasting to the left without hesitation.
What?!
Xu Lingâs expression shifted dramatically as she attempted to evade sideways.
But Luo Cheng had already locked onto her movements tightly.
Boom!
Under Xu Lingâs astonished gaze, Luo Chengâs fist rapidly magnified before her.
Thud!
Spewing a mouthful of fresh blood, Xu Ling flew out of the arena like a torn sack, blood splattering mid-air. The punch nearly shattered her internal organs, leaving her gravely injured.
âXu Ling!â
A square-faced youth from Fierce Cloud Sect saw Xu Ling suffer severe injuries, his face changing drastically as he leapt onto the arena, reaching out to support her.
âYouâre stepping up to challenge me?â
Luo Chengâs voice resounded as he charged forward.
Run!
Seeing Luo Cheng rushing at him, the square-faced youth felt a chilling dread down to his scalp.
His strength was inferior to Xu Lingâsâit was inconceivable for him to fight now. He hurriedly supported Xu Ling, retreating quickly, aiming to escape the arena.
âDo you think you can run?â
Anyone connected to Sun YingyangâLuo Cheng had no intent to spare a single one!
In the next moment.
Luo Cheng abruptly accelerated. To the spectators, it seemed two Luo Chengs appeared in the arena, his speed escalating several-fold!
âThis speedâhow is this possible?!â
The square-faced youth was utterly horrified.
âStay down!â
Luo Cheng leapt into the air, unleashing a splitting kick downward.
âYou seriously think Iâm helpless? Iâll fight you with everything Iâve got!â
Realizing he couldnât escape, the square-faced youth roared furiously, summoning all his strength and thrusting a punch forward.
Rumble!
Qi Force exploded with a deafening roar. The square-faced youth, full of imposing energy, spewed blood wildly as he and Xu Ling were both thrown out of the arena, crashing into the ground with deep fissures forming beneath them.
Cough!
After coughing out a large mouthful of blood, the square-faced youth pointed trembling fingers at Luo Cheng standing triumphantly on the arena.
âYouâŠâ
Though he expected to lose, he couldnât fathom being unable to block even a single move! He lacked even the strength for resistance!
The opponent was merely at the Sixth Layer of Transcendence Realm! Even as a prodigy, this defied reason!
Thump!
Overwhelmed with fury and disbelief, the square-faced youth coughed up another mouthful of blood before collapsing unconscious.
The entire Martial Arts Square fell into a momentary silence.
And then, an uproar erupted.
âPowerful! Too powerful! Just unbelievably strong! Even a Transcendence Realm Sixth Layer Martial Artist canât withstand a single strike from Luo Cheng!â
âThis isnât just a regular Transcendence Realm Sixth Layer Martial Artist. Xu Ling has mastered Floating Light Palm and Shadow Stepping. Sheâs a Martial Arts prodigy, an absolute powerhouse in the Sixth Layerâone of the very best!â
âNot even such a top Sixth Layer Martial Artist could endure a single move! And Luo Cheng didnât even seem to exert his full strength! This is terrifying!â
âHaha! Look at Fierce Cloud Sect nowâhow dare they act so arrogant anymore!â
âExactly! This is so satisfying!â
The crowd erupted in cheers, awe, and expressions of disbelief.
What Luo Cheng displayed today far exceeded their understanding of what a Transcendence Realm Sixth Layer Martial Artist could achieve!
While listening to the crowdâs chatter, Luo Cheng remained indifferent.
Back when he was still at the Fifth Layer of Transcendence Realm, he could defeat Sixth Layer Martial Artists effortlessly.
Now that heâd ascended to the Golden Body Realm, his combat strength had multiplied several times over. If he couldnât instantly obliterate opponents now, thatâd be strange.
Elsewhere among the spectators.
Chen Xuan and other elders were likewise stunned.
Although they realized Luo Cheng was exceptionally strong, they hadnât expected him to be this strong.
To defeat a top-tier Sixth Layer Martial Artist in a single strikeâthis was unheard of!
âCould it be⊠has he reached the Half-step Tongxuan Realm already? Such rapid cultivation progress is absurd!â
One elder couldnât help but exclaim.
Another elder shook his head: âThatâs unlikely. Luo Cheng didnât utilize any Essence Energy in his attacks. It was pure physical power.â
The Third Elder frowned: âPure physical power defeating a top-tier Sixth Layer Martial Artist in one moveâhowâs that even possible?â
The elders agreed this seemed impossible.
A Sixth Layer top-tier Martial Artistâs physical capabilities were already at the limits of the Transcendence Realm, with raw strength reaching eighty to ninety thousand pounds! Without Essence Energy amplification, there shouldnât be such a gap in combat ability!
It made no sense.
Sometimes, the speaker has no particular intent, yet the listener takes it to heart.
âCould it be⊠heâs achieved *that* Realm?â
Chen Xuanâs gaze fell on Luo Cheng standing on the arena, a cold inhalation escaping his lips.
He vividly recalled Luo Cheng mentioning the Golden Body Realm when he first joined as a disciple.
At the time, Chen Xuan merely treated it as casual talk without seriously considering it.
Even now, Chen Xuan thought he might be overthinking.
Throughout history, no matter how brilliant and awe-inspiring a prodigy, achieving the Golden Body Realm had always been elusive!
âHahahahaâŠâ
Suddenly, a burst of hearty laughter filled the Martial Arts Square.
The Fifth Elderâs face was aglow with pride, as he looked triumphantly at Sun Yingyang.
âSun Yingyang, seems like Fierce Cloud Sectâs so-called prodigies are nothing impressive after all.â
Just moments earlier, heâd felt crushed under Sun Yingyangâs aura. Now, basking in his moment of glory, he was quick to celebrate.
Crash!
Sun Yingyangâs teacup shattered into dust, his face darkening like thunder.
Su Lan and Shi Chuanâs defeats hadnât concerned him much.
After all, they were only at the Fifth Layer of Transcendence Realm, so losing was within reason.
However, Sun Yingyang hadnât expected Xu Ling to fall as well. Not only that, but she and the square-faced youth together suffered severe injuries in mere moments!
The combat power Luo Cheng displayed had entirely surpassed Sun Yingyangâs expectations!
Fortunately, this time Sun Yingyang came to Xuanyuan Sect well-prepared!
âMu Yuan, youâre celebrating too early!â
Taking a deep breath, Sun Yingyang spoke coldly. âJiang Xinglie, step up! Show them the true power of Fierce Cloud Sect!â
âUnderstood!â
No instruction was necessaryâJiang Xinglie was already eager to step forward.
With a leap, Jiang Xinglie landed firmly on the arena.
In an instant, all eyes turned to Jiang Xinglie, filled with amazement.
Ten days ago, Jiang Xinglieâs solo victory over the Half-step Tongxuan Martial Artist Iron Hand Wu Tong had spread far and wide!
Many in Xuanyuan Sect had heard of Jiang Xinglieâs name and his astonishing feats:
In merely nine palm strikes, Jiang Xinglie had caused Wu Tongâpossessor of Half-step Tongxuan cultivationâto bleed from seven orifices and die!
