Peng!
His back knocked heavily against the wall, causing his entire body to be covered in dust before he finally came to a halt. After coughing a few times, Division Head Chen flew back. Even though he was injured and his face was pale, his eyes were gleaming with excitement.
He was the leader of the Fist Technique Hall and was most proficient in fist techniques. However, not only had he been easily crushed by someone of the same cultivation level, he was also not a match for someone of a higher cultivation level. The young man before him was not old, but his grasp of fist techniques had already reached a shocking level.
"How do I need to improve my fist art?"
Division Head Chen clasped his fist and asked earnestly.
Even though he was the head of the Combat Master Hall, he was still the head of the Combat Master Hall. Even though the other party was young and his cultivation was weak, his fist art had already far surpassed his own.
"Your fist art seems to be decent, but it lacks an indomitable spirit … If I'm not mistaken, you must have practiced many different kinds of battle techniques, right?" the young man asked.
"That's right. I have practiced 42 fist arts," Division Head Chen replied awkwardly.
In the past, whenever he told others how many fist arts he had practiced, he would always be proud of himself. However, at this moment, he was feeling a little embarrassed.
"It's not quantity that matters, it's quality that matters! There is a limit to a person's energy. If one learns too much, their spirit will be scattered. Ever since my teacher imparted me the fist art, I have spent nearly a year tempering this fist art. That's how I managed to master it to such an extent. You have learned a total of 42 fist arts, and if your spirit is scattered, how long can you possibly spend on each of them? "
The young man asked.
"This … I have spent around twenty years on it … I am already nine hundred this year …" Division Head Chen scratched his head.
"That isn't important!" The youth's face reddened. "Fist techniques aren't just a matter of time, it's a matter of single-mindedness. Since you have already joined the Xuanxuan Faction, allow me to teach you how to fuse your spirit, spirit, and spirit together to form the strongest punch! "
"Thank you …"
Division Head Chen's eyes glowed in agitation.
"A young man is actually guiding Division Head Chen?"
"I find it hard to believe, but … that young man's punch is simply too fearsome. Even we wouldn't be able to withstand it if we were to face him in the same cultivation realm!"
Seeing this sight, the crowd in the air was astonished.
The young man from the Xuanxuan Faction might be young, but his fist art was simply too profound. Even though this was the first time they had seen him, they couldn't help but feel excited.
"Division Head Chen joined the Xuanxuan Faction in order to learn this fist art, but … what about Division Head Lu?"
Understanding the reason behind Division Head Chen's betrayal, the crowd couldn't help but turn their gazes toward Division Head Lu.
In front of him was a girl who looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. Although she was still young, she had a delicate face and was very beautiful.
The girl was also saying something to Hall Master Lu. Everyone focused their attention, and their voices gradually entered their ears.
"Xiao Lu, your movement technique is not bad, but it's too flashy. It's fine if you meet someone weaker, but what's the use if you meet someone stronger? Beautiful movement techniques can only fool the weak in battle, making them feel that they are very strong, but in the eyes of the strong, they are worthless. "
Placing her hands behind her back, the girl spoke with a disappointed tone. "The purpose of a movement technique is to allow one to approach the enemy swiftly and catch them off guard. However, if one's zhenqi is reduced to mere afterimages, one's offense will be greatly weakened. How can one fight against an opponent like that?
"How about this? Why don't you suppress your cultivation down to Saint 1-dan pinnacle and compete with me with your movement technique?"
The girl said.
"Alright!"
Division Head Lu hurriedly nodded. Driving his aura, he suppressed his cultivation to Saint 1-dan pinnacle in the blink of an eye.
"Let's begin!"
Right after the girl said those words, Division Head Lu's figure blurred, and six afterimages immediately appeared before everyone's eyes. It was as if five clones had appeared in an instant, making it impossible to tell which one was real and which was fake.
"That's Division Head Lu's signature move, [Nine Shadows Steps]!"
"Indeed. Once he drives the Nine Shadows Steps to its limits, he will be able to form nine afterimages. Even I would be unable to tell which one is real. Even though he has suppressed his cultivation to only form five afterimages, it's still an extremely fearsome technique! "
"Almost no one will be able to counter this move …"
"In any case, I won't be a match for him in the same cultivation realm …"
…
Hall Master Xing and the others nodded grimly in agreement.
Suppressing one's cultivation to Saint realm, one would be able to execute Saint-tier battle techniques. This Nine Shadows Steps was extremely famous in the Combat Master Hall, and it was impossible for them to break it at the same cultivation realm.
"Get ready, I'm going to make my move …"
Barely after everyone was done thinking, the young lady before them suddenly exclaimed softly. Following which, everyone felt their vision blurring, as if a shadow had been shot out. In the blink of an eye, it returned to its original position.
Padah!
Hurriedly turning their gazes over, Division Head Lu's five afterimages vanished in an instant, only to be replaced by a single figure. His back was bent like a prawn, and large mouthfuls of yellow saliva were spewing from his mouth.
It seemed like the young lady had struck his abdomen with a kick, and he had nearly failed to withstand it.
"She … made a move?"
Everyone swallowed a mouthful of saliva as they felt their throats go dry.
Even with their eye of discernment, they weren't able to see the young lady's movements clearly, let alone someone of the same cultivation realm.
To think that the head of the Movement Division would actually have his trump card broken by someone else …
This was way too fearsome!
After a long moment of silence, Division Head Lu finally recovered from his shock. Looking at the young lady before him once more, he clasped his fist in admiration and said sincerely, "She's fast … I am no match for her. I beseech you to enlighten me …"
To be honest, when they first heard that the members of the Combat Master Hall would rather join the Xuanxuan Faction than return to the Xuanxuan Faction, they had been furious.
After defeating a few ordinary students consecutively, Liu Yang, who had been teaching Hall Master Chen, and Miss Wang, who was standing in front of him, walked out.
Despite being of the same cultivation realm, they were unable to even withstand a single blow from them …
Only at this moment did they realize how powerful the Xuanxuan Faction was, and they couldn't help but want to learn from them.
"Movement techniques require one to be fast, faster, faster! As long as one's speed is fast enough, nothing will be a problem … "
Nodding, the young lady began explaining.
After listening for a moment, Division Head Lu couldn't help but feel impressed.
The other party's explanation went from simple to profound, going straight to the essence of movement techniques, enlightening those who listened to it.
As the head of the Movement Division, he had studied movement techniques for several centuries, but to think that his understanding of movement techniques would actually be inferior to a young lady. Just thinking about it left him feeling deeply embarrassed.
Just as he was about to continue speaking, Division Head Chen's voice suddenly sounded not too far away.
"Hall Master Liu, you are here as well. Come down, let's join the Xuanxuan Faction together!"
Raising his head, Zhang Xuan realized that Hall Master Xing and the others had arrived at some point in time.
They had intentionally concealed their auras with their Primordial Spirits, such that even Hall Master Xing hadn't noticed them.
"Indeed! Come down quickly! The combat prowess of the members of the Xuanxuan Faction is truly astounding, many times greater than ours! Come down quickly! Let's join the Xuanxuan Faction and learn even more formidable moves!"
Division Head Lu also shouted.
"This …"
The mouths of Hall Master Xing and the others twitched.
Initially, they didn't have to worry about anything if they were to hide in the air. However, not only did these two fellows betray them, they even went as far as to call out to them.
"I am the head of the Combat Master Hall's Weapon Division. May I know which of you is skilled in weapons? I can suppress my cultivation to have a duel with you!"
Knowing that he had been discovered, the head of the Weapon Division stepped forward and flicked his wrist. A spear appeared in his hand, and with a slight twist, a deafening roar echoed in the air.
If he didn't stop them now, the combat masters of the Combat Master Hall would have already joined the Xuanxuan Faction. Since that was the case, there was nothing more to say.
"Allow me!"
The young man who had taught Division Head Chen stepped forward.
Liu Yang!
His forte lay in fist arts, but he had learned spearmanship from Zheng Yang for a period of time as well.
As for the other members of the Xuanxuan Faction, while they would have no problem dealing with ordinary combat masters, they wouldn't stand a chance against a division head.
Just a moment ago, when Division Head Chen and Division Head Lu had made a move against them, they were already unable to deal with them. Left with no choice, they had invited the two direct disciples of Principal Zhang over.
"Alright!"
Taking a closer look at the other party's cultivation — Half-Saint pinnacle — the head of the Weapon Division immediately suppressed his cultivation to the same level.
Hula!
With a flick of his spear, he thrust it forward.
As expected of a combat master who specialized in the art of weapons. Before the spear could even reach Zhang Xuan, the tip of the spear had already shot forth like a soaring dragon, bringing with it an immense pressure.
Even though he was only using the strength of a Half-Saint, if he were to exert his full strength, even a Saint 1-dan expert might not be a match for him.
"Incredible!"
"Division Head Zhou's [Thousand Roars of the Dragon] is indeed the strongest offensive technique in the entire Combat Master Hall. There is probably no one in the same cultivation realm who would be able to face it head on!"
"In my fight with him, I can only use my soul energy to stun him before escaping. As for facing him head-on … it's impossible for me to do so!"
"The same goes for me as well. I should dodge first before finding a way to deal with him …"
…
Hall Master Xing and the others nodded in agreement.
This matter concerned the honor of their Mingshi Tang Faction, so Division Head Zhou of the Weapon Division didn't hold back at all. As soon as he made his move, even they felt pressured by the pressure.
Hu!
While they were communicating with one another, the young man made his move.
A spear materialized in his hand, and he thrust it forward. It didn't seem to be an intricate movement, but the spear pierced through the air. Due to its incredible speed, the length of the spear seemed to have lengthened, and in the blink of an eye, it was already right before Division Head Zhou.
Huala!
The might of Division Head Zhou's Nine Roars of the Dragon dissipated, and Liu Yang's spear was already right before his throat, ready to pierce through at any moment.
In a single move, Division Head Zhou had been defeated!
"Your spear art is much faster than mine. I have lost …"
Division Head Zhou's face paled, and his body stiffened.
Even though he was the head of the Weapon Division, he knew that he wouldn't be able to deal with that move of his at the same cultivation realm.
"Actually, your spear art isn't too bad either. I just found a flaw in it and made use of it," Liu Yang said with a smile.
"I have cultivated the art of the spear for 842 years, and I thought that I would be invincible among those of the same cultivation realm. Who could have thought that there would always be someone stronger than me …"
Shaking his head, Division Head Zhou turned to Zhang Xuan and asked, "May I know … how long have you been practicing the art of the spear?"
"Roughly …" Liu Yang thought for a moment before replying seriously, "Four hours!"
"…" Division Head Zhou.
