"You … You're pissing me off."
Yuan Gang couldn't exert any strength. He was so angry that he wanted to curse. However, he didn't know what to say. After all, this was one of his tactics. Strength, speed, and resistance were not the only things that mattered in a martial arts competition. It also required combat experience and good on-the-spot reactions.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …"
Long Yichen kept shooting arrows. Each arrow was taken out from the storage ring and placed on the bowstring. It didn't take much time, and the number of arrows was endless. Yuan Gang couldn't exert any of his skills. Although he did not suffer any serious injuries, his punches were interrupted after two or three punches. Although he wasn't seriously injured, his knees started to swell after being attacked for so many times.
"Haha, this is the first time I've seen this kind of fighting style. Interesting."
"Right, listen to me. You should bet on Long Yichen."
The audience gathered together and chatted happily. They had just bet heavily on Long Yichen, and they were waiting for him to win and share the money.
"Brother, how did you know that he could win? This Long Yichen is a newcomer."
Although the others also bet, they didn't understand why.
"Didn't you notice that Long Yichen and Du Feng were chatting in the corner for a while?"
After the others heard this, they all had a feeling of sudden realization. The guy named Du Feng was the previous champion of the Earth List. He had never lost since he entered the competition. Long Yichen chatted with him for a long time. He must have learned something.
In fact, Du Feng didn't teach him anything. He only reminded him not to fight head-on with Yuan Gang. He came up with the idea of using a bow and arrow to shoot the knees from afar. Although it was a mean move, it was very effective. After a few times, Yuan Gang's movements gradually slowed down.
There was a saying among martial arts practitioners, "Power comes from the feet." Although Yuan Gang's upper limbs were thick and his fists were as big as a vinegar jar, the real heavy punches required the strength of the legs. When the knees were swollen, they would hurt as soon as they exerted force. Once the knees hurt, the legs would weaken, causing the upper limbs to punch out.
"Break!"
Yuan Gang could not take it anymore and broke through to the realm of Powang. His aura skyrocketed, and a layer of Quintessential Essence enveloped him. Looking at the arrows shot by Long Yichen, they could no longer hurt him. This was because the barrier of the Powang realm could withstand the attack of arrows.
"Long Yichen wins this match."
Although Yuan Gang had turned the tables, the referee still declared Long Yichen the winner. This was because Yuan Gang had already broken the rules and broken through to the realm of Powang. It was unfair to fight with a Heaven Seizing Realm martial artist at the Emptiness Realm in the first place. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, the referee stopped the match and announced Long Yichen's victory.
"Kid, I'll be waiting for you on the Heaven List."
Yuan Gang was a prideful person. He was someone who would not lose face even if he lost face. He decided to go back and cultivate properly to get rid of this fatal weakness of his. Otherwise, his future opponents would learn from Long Yichen and specialize in long-range attacks on his knees. If that were to happen, he would be in deep trouble.
"Alright, it's a deal."
Long Yichen wiped the sweat off his forehead. Actually, it wasn't easy for him to win. Fortunately, he had used the right tactics to restrain Yuan Gang, the crazy man with heavy punches. Continuously pulling the bow and shooting arrows consumed a lot of stamina. Especially when he was using his movement technique to run and shoot arrows at the same time, the combination of his eye technique and movement technique. Therefore, his victory was due to opportunistic factors, but at the same time, it was also a manifestation of his strength.
"Brother Du, I won."
Long Yichen calmly walked down the stage. He did not bet on himself. The goal of this competition was to obtain the championship of the Earth Board Ranking Competition. Only by obtaining this championship would he be able to properly go to the Long family's headquarters in the Weiyang Continent.
"Mm, well done. Prepare yourself, we'll set off tomorrow."
With an acquaintance accompanying him to the Weiyang Continent, Du Feng was of course very happy. Honestly speaking, he was a little nervous going to a place like the Weiyang Continent for the first time. After all, it was the famous Never-Ending Continent, a place that countless young geniuses wanted to enter.
"Alright, I'll go find you tomorrow morning."
It was already midnight. Long Yichen had just finished his competition, but he left in a hurry instead of sitting down to rest. If Du Feng guessed correctly, he should have gone home to break through to the Cultivation Realm. The minimum Cultivation requirement to go to the Weiyang Continent was the Powang realm. Exceptional contestants on the Earth Board could be exempted.
Although Long Yichen was qualified to go to the Weiyang Continent now, he was afraid that he would be bullied by the Long family's headquarters due to his lack of strength. As expected, when he returned home, his relatives, father, mother, uncles, and aunts were all waiting for him. They even prepared the Powang Elixir for breaking through to the Cultivation Realm.
"You broke through pretty quickly."
The next day, when Du Feng met up with Long Yichen, he realized that he had already broken through to the first-stage Powang realm.
"I didn't have enough time, so I used the elixir."
Long Yichen told Du Feng the truth. He had to do this considering the special circumstances of the Weiyang Continent.
"I understand. Let's go."
There were only two ways to go to the Weiyang Continent in the Thousand Moon Nation. One was to go through the recommendation of the Seven Basaltic Mansions and use the special passage. The other way was to get a good ranking in the Earth Ranking Tournament and use the Starmoon Hall's passage to get there.
"You two go in. Remember not to look back."
The Starmoon Hall Hall Master shook his head helplessly when he saw Du Feng and Long Yichen about to leave. Actually, he didn't want young people to go to the Weiyang Continent too early. Although it was a good place, it was also a place where people died. Many young talents had died in the Weiyang Continent. If possible, he hoped that Du Feng would break through to the Ascension Realm before going there. He was still young, and there was no hurry to succeed.
The environment of the Weiyang Continent was too unfair. Many people with average talents could still achieve high Cultivation Realm. Because their ancestors had lived there for generations, they had access to large amounts of high-quality resources. If young people from the outside went there, they would definitely be suppressed. In order to let their descendants have access to resources for a long time, those old things would shamelessly deal with new young people like Du Feng and Long Yichen.
"Don't look back."
The two walked along the passage for a while, but they still couldn't see the end. Long Yichen couldn't help but look around. He had just turned his head when Du Feng stopped him. Others might not know, but Du Feng knew very well. In fact, the Weiyang Continent wasn't even above the continent, but above the God of War Continent.
