The physical strength of the Transcendents was indeed terrifying, but just having strength did not mean that they were powerful. Pulp Farmer dodged nimbly and with a grab and a trip, he had cleverly tripped the massive and heavy Siba to the ground.
According to the rules, in order to ensure that the contestants had sufficient stamina, as long as their limbs touched the ground or their bodies went out of bounds, it would be considered a failure before the semi-finals.
Hence, Pulp Farmer had won the match by tripping Siba.
However, Pulp Farmer had held Siba's right arm with one hand, preventing it from touching the ground. The meaning behind this technique was obvious!
What an arrogant human!
Amidst the shock, the Transcendents felt mixed emotions. It had always been the Transcendent Bravehearts who went easy, but this time, it was their turn to be humiliated by a member of a different race!
Pulp Farmer remained calm as he said nonchalantly, "Aren't you getting up?"
Siba was somewhat dumbfounded from the fall. When he heard this, he immediately felt extremely embarrassed. With a loud roar, he crawled up from the ground.
Siba said angrily, "Human, what kind of trick did you use!?"
From Siba's point of view, what had happened at that instant was too strange. All his strength had been easily dissipated. The human had only used a tiny bit of strength, but he could not even stand stably.
This was definitely not done by physical strength, but by some strange magic trick!
Pulp Farmer sneered without a word.
The physical strength of the Transcendents far exceeded that of humans. In a head-on clash, he was indeed not their match. However, punching and kicking techniques were never limited to a head-on clash of fists. Fighting techniques were also a very crucial factor!
Pulp Farmer still remembered that he had said to Shi Xiaobai not long ago, "Shi Xiaobai, I want to learn how to posture."
Shi Xiaobai's answer was very simple. In a sentence, "Since they believe their physiques are better than humans, why don't you use your punching and kicking techniques to defeat them? Use your weakest to defeat their strongest! "
Use your weakest to defeat your opponent's strongest!
This was the best way to posture!
No, this was no longer posturing, it was true awesomeness!
And Pulp Farmer happened to possess this ability. Many rookies believed that Pulp Farmer's spear techniques were impressive, but they had overlooked a sentence provided by the official rankings — Pulp Farmer had been the champion of the National Secondary School Martial Tournament for three consecutive years!
Therefore, not only was Pulp Farmer's spear techniques impressive, he was actually proficient in all sorts of weapons. His martial arts were amazing!
Pulp Farmer hooked his right hand again and said with his eyebrows pricked up, "Continue?"
This provocative pose was also taught to him by Shi Xiaobai. However, Pulp Farmer was indeed not good at posturing. When he did it, it was very stiff!
This pretense was very stiff, but it almost drove Siba crazy!
Siba roared and charged forward again.
What happened next became Siba's lifelong nightmare. It also subverted the understanding of the Transcendents.
Pulp Farmer easily nullified Siba's attacks time and time again. He elegantly threw Siba to the ground and even used a shoulder throw. And every time he threw Siba to the ground, he would hold Siba's wrists or ankles, preventing his limbs from touching the ground.
This was a merciless teasing and naked humiliation, but the audience had already lost their temper, because this was already a crushing defeat.
At least according to the rules, Siba had lost countless times!
In the end, it was Siba who couldn't stand the repeated humiliation and rushed out of the arena. He pretended to have been careless and failed. Only then did he end the painful situation where he couldn't use his strength or vent his anger.
Pulp Farmer had used his outstanding combat skills to completely thrash Siba, who was ranked fifth among the eight Transcendent Bravehearts!
This was the strength of humans!
The Transcendents had no choice but to admit that humans were not to be underestimated when it came to combat skills.
From their point of view, humans had already proven themselves, making them take them seriously.
.....
After the duel ended, Pulp Farmer returned to the audience stands. However, there was not much joy on his face.
Feng Yuanlin said curiously, "Eh? Why aren't you happy at all? "
Pulp Farmer sighed and said, "It's not perfect enough."
Liu Yu rolled his eyes by the side. "Pulp Farmer, you have been corrupted by Shi Xiaobai so quickly. If it's not perfect enough, is there such a need to posture?"
Pulp Farmer shook his head and said in a deep voice, "It's not posturing. Didn't you notice that I had no way of fighting that Transcendent Braveheart head-on? In terms of physical strength, it was indeed on a completely different level from me. If we were to exchange blows, I would definitely be the one defeated. Although I had used my combat skills to completely thrash it, it was completely different from what Shi Xiaobai said. I had clearly used my strongest point to defeat my opponent's weakest point. "
When Pulp Farmer said this, Feng Yuanlin and Liu Yu were taken aback. The truth seemed to be as such. They could not help but cast their gazes at Shi Xiaobai.
Shi Xiaobai smiled and said, "That's enough. There's no need to posture. It's enough to prove that humans are awesome."
In fact, Shi Xiaobai was somewhat disappointed. According to his thoughts, to complete the perfect posturing of 'using your weakest point to defeat your opponent's strongest point', the best scenario was for Pulp Farmer to use his fist to clash with Siba, beating it down with one punch.
However, he was indeed naive. Although Pulp Farmer was a martial arts genius, the physique of humans was indeed far inferior to that of the Transcendents. It was already not bad that he could do what he did.
Shi Xiaobai did not reveal his disappointment as he encouraged him, "Continue working hard. If you can defeat Moya, that would be truly awesome."
Shi Xiaobai sensed that his physique was rapidly increasing as he constantly absorbed the holy tree's fruit's energy. He could not help but feel a sense of anticipation.
When he completely absorbed the holy tree's fruit, how strong would his physique be?
Would he be able to suppress the Transcendent Braveheart in physical combat?
.....
The tournament was still continuing. In the afternoon, the final challenger to challenge the defending champion, Leonis, would be decided among the sixty-four. Therefore, the competition schedule was extremely crowded.
Thankfully, the way to determine victory was simple and crude. As such, every duel took a relatively short amount of time.
Pulp Farmer and company became the focus of the audience's attention. The way they crushed the other races was no different from the Transcendent Bravehearts. When they encountered the other eight Bravehearts other than Moya, they could easily defeat them.
The audience was extremely disappointed with the eight Bravehearts, but they were filled with confidence in Moya. They were constantly looking forward to the outcome of the battle when the three humans met Moya.
However, Pulp Farmer and company had pretty good luck. They did not encounter Moya up until the quarterfinals.
And amongst them, Pulp Farmer alone eliminated two of the eight Bravehearts. Feng Yuanlin eliminated one, while Liu Yu eliminated one in the round of thirty-two to sixteen. Another Braveheart was mercilessly eliminated by Moya.
As such, when the tournament entered the quarterfinals, there were only three Bravehearts left, including Moya.
This was an unbelievable matter in previous years.
The Transcendents, who had witnessed all of this with their own eyes, began to doubt if their Bravehearts could really resist the Infernal King's army.
Just as the intense battle for the quarterfinals was about to begin.
Leonis, who was supposed to appear in tomorrow's match, suddenly appeared in the arena of the tournament.
At that moment, the audience shut their mouths.
This was because everyone could clearly sense that Leonis, who had suddenly appeared, was exuding a furious aura!
It was a look of anger that seemed like he wanted to destroy everything in front of him.
After Leonis came to the arena, his eyes scanned the audience in the audience stands. His nose twitched as though he was sniffing something. Suddenly, his eyes fixed on the spot where Shi Xiaobai, Pulp Farmer and company were standing.
His gaze that seemed like it was about to devour someone was like a wild beast that was about to go berserk!
