Crack!
Lou Cheng and Ren Li both charged at each other with Force Concentration. In the blink of an eye, they were very close to each other.
At this moment, Ren Li suddenly paused, as if she had turned into a paper person. She swayed backward lightly under the strong wind created by Lou Cheng's high-speed approach. Then she swayed sideways and staggered away from her opponent with wonderful footwork. She avoided the front and dodged to the side, breaking the rhythm of the battle.
Bam! She lowered her waist and gathered her force. Taking advantage of the impact of the Dan Stage eruption, she threw a cannon punch straight at Lou Cheng.
Lou Cheng knew why Ren Li disrupted his rhythm like this. She was afraid of another collision with the Internal Explosion Punch. In that case, although she wouldn't be seriously injured, she would definitely be seriously injured. In a fight of similar strength, this basically meant that the winner was already decided.
If it were some of the Sixth Pin fighters who hadn't mastered the simplified physical invulnerability, three Internal Explosion Punches would be enough to kill them directly.
Therefore, Ren Li wouldn't confront Lou Cheng directly when he had enough time to prepare. She would definitely disrupt his rhythm in various ways and make him lose his momentum.
This was within Lou Cheng's expectation. He didn't expect to easily give his opponent, a Heavenly Son of the era, another Internal Explosion Punch.
However, he had an alternative way of fighting.
Lou Cheng's pupils contracted and merged with his qi, blood, and force. Then they gushed out and poured into his right arm, causing the fascia and muscles there to tighten instead of swelling.
The Internal Explosion Punch would leave a vibration that would affect the internal organs. I'll trigger it in other ways.
Come on, try my Thunder Roar Zen!
Boom!
Lou Cheng seized the last moment to visualize the Thunder Cloud Shock in his mind. He swung his right arm back and hit Ren Li's cannon punch.
Bam!
With a loud explosion, Ren Li's muscles trembled and the discomfort in her internal organs seemed to be catalyzed. She hurriedly made another Force Concentration to calm her qi, blood, and dispel the vibration.
Lou Cheng was about to swing his arms and use the mighty Roar Zen of the Dan Stage Consecutive Explosion when he suddenly smelled a light fruity fragrance. This was a smell that had never appeared before.
The stuffiness in his chest, shortness of breath, and weakness seemed to be affected by the fragrance of the fruit and started to stir again. It made his head hurt slightly, and he felt nauseous. His breathing was slightly tight.
Could it be the strange kung fu developed by the Kongtong School that Ke mentioned?
Killing gas? Biochemical martial arts?
Ren Li didn't use it earlier because she wasn't at the Inhuman stage and wasn't close to Physical Invulnerability. She wouldn't be able to produce any obvious effects. Even if she used it, it wouldn't affect me in any way. But when I was hit by the simplified Physical Invulnerability of the Plague Sect, there would be a "catalyst" in my body. This "gas" would then be able to work its magic and cause my symptoms to become more and more obvious.
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, he immediately redirected his qi and blood to neutralize the effect with Force Concentration. Then, he held his breath, turned right, and swung his left arm at Ren Li as if he was holding a sledgehammer.
The force in Ren Li's Dantian gushed out, and her arms swelled. Her left fist slanted upwards and blocked another Thunder Roar Zen.
Bam!
Her body jumped slightly uncontrollably, and her qi and blood started to roll again. This time, it was stronger than before. The fruit fragrance within a one-meter radius became more obvious as their fists collided. The speed at which it condensed inward was faster than the speed at which it spread outward.
Lou Cheng held his breath, did Dan Concentration, and used Thunder Roar Zen. He wanted to completely trigger the Internal Explosion in Ren Li's body before his symptoms affected the fight.
He had also learned some new moves of the Ice Sect, but at this moment, the most effective one was Thunder Roar Zen. A martial artist couldn't always give up what was near and seek what was far away just to catch his opponent off guard. Otherwise, he would make a big mistake.
In a word, the most essential principle of a martial arts fight was to defeat the enemy with the most suitable move at the most appropriate time.
Ren Li used Force Concentration again and again to neutralize and restrain the discomfort in her body. She also used the explosion to throw punches and use the Hidden Fragrance. She wanted to break down Lou Cheng's combat power and win the fight before the vibration in her body was completely detonated.
This was the most effective way she could see at the moment.
Triple Explosion, Quadruple Explosion, Quintuple Explosion! Lou Cheng clenched his teeth and didn't breathe. He swung his arms and used Thunder Roar Zen frequently. He was like a blacksmith who was swinging a sledgehammer to hit the sword in front of him with bulging muscles.
Once, twice, thrice, four times … He opened his eyes angrily. He endured the constriction of his pupils, the tightness in his chest, and the gradual weakness in his body, and punched out again and again.
Bam, bam, bam! Ren Li didn't retreat half a step. She also used Force Concentration to suppress her churning qi and blood and trembling internal organs.
Her fine blood vessels were broken one by one. Her white skin showed a faint red color, and her eyes were bloodshot. The taste of rust in her throat and the blood in her gums "complemented each other."
No! Lou Cheng should have reached his limit. He should have been short of breath and weak. There should be obvious signs!
Sextuple Explosion, Septuple Explosion, Octuple Explosion! Ren Li saw that Lou Cheng in front of her was full of vigor and fighting spirit. He was tough as if he had walked on the edge of life and death. She couldn't see his real condition.
No … I can't fight to the death like this … Ren Li's vigor was suppressed. A thought flashed through her mind. She wanted to change her way of fighting.
After another Force Concentration, she leaned forward with her back and raised her right leg. With a ferocious kick, she forced Lou Cheng to retreat and found an opening. Then, she shrank back and quickly adjusted her breathing. Using the Dan Concentration, she tried her best to calm the discomfort in her body.
In such a fierce battle and such a high-intensity collision, Lou Cheng had long been unable to hold his breath. After taking a few breaths of the fruit fragrance, his head began to ache and dizziness. His chest was so tight that he couldn't breathe properly. His body was exhausted.
Seeing that Ren Li retreated, he quickly withdrew his qi and blood and rushed to the side with a crack. He rushed out of the place where he had been standing and breathed in the fresh air.
If he didn't slow down, he wouldn't be able to hold on!
Seeing this, Ren Li was a little annoyed. She didn't expect Lou Cheng to be at the edge of his limit. She could still hold on for three or four Tremor Punches!
In the seats of the Songcheng University Martial Arts Club, Yan Zheke vaguely understood what was going on after witnessing her boyfriend's thirst for air. Her heart was in a mess. She was worried, praying, and a little proud at the same time.
Cheng had forced Ren Li to use that move?
This was probably her trump card to deal with Peng Leyun.
At this moment, Lou Cheng, who had recovered a little, didn't think about anything else. He made a gesture with his hands and outlined the ancient characters in his mind. He shouted in a low voice,
"Okay!"
He jumped out and rushed to Ren Li. His heart was filled with a strong fighting spirit. "Don't be a coward. Just do it!"
Life and death were nothing. Just do it!
Lou Cheng gathered his qi and blood and immediately spurted out the residual fragrance. He pulled back his arm and moved forward, fiercely striking with Tremor Zen again!
Ren Li's vigor was taken away, and her negative emotions affected her state. She couldn't avoid Lou Cheng's approach. She had to use Force Concentration to stimulate Hidden Fragrance again.
Bam!
Ren Li's muscles were trembling, and her eyes were redder. She couldn't hold back the rolling qi and blood in her throat.
Lou Cheng held his breath and stopped breathing. He withdrew his qi and blood and swung his left arm.
Bam! Bam! Bam! He punched Ren Li again and again, and the muffled sound reverberated outside. It was as if his punches were knocking on the hearts of Liu Chang, Chen Sansheng, Yan Xiaoling, Mu Jinnian, and the others, as well as the hearts of everyone in the audience.
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
Lou Cheng's vision was blurred. He shook his right arm, clenched his fist, and struck with Tremor Zen again.
Boom!
Ren Li blocked with her arms. Her qi and blood were shaken again, and the residual effect of Internal Explosion in her body was completely triggered!
Her internal organs seemed to be spasming, her head was dizzy, and blood was flowing out of her throat. Ren Li's stance suddenly collapsed!
Chance!
Lou Cheng's eyes widened. He braced himself for the explosive strength in his shoulders and was about to throw a side uppercut at his opponent's temple.
But at this time, everything in front of him was blurred, and he was in a trance, like a slow-motion replay of a movie.
Have I reached my limit? He saw his fist slowly moving towards Ren Li's head. He saw his opponent slowly swinging her arm towards his throat as if she was seeking victory in the midst of her defeat.
Puff! Puff!
Both of their fists were caught by the referee at the same time.
At the last moment, Lou Cheng seized the opportunity, but his strength was slow and his movement was slow. Ren Li was in the same situation, but she was better. Therefore, she found the opportunity to hurt both of them.
As for Ren Li, she was able to block Lou Cheng's attack in time. However, after blocking it, she had no strength to fight back and could only wait to be captured. She didn't know whether Lou Cheng still had any strength left, so it was natural for her to take the risk.
As for Lou Cheng, if it weren't for his tenacious will and the momentum he had tempered through life and death situations, he wouldn't have been able to hold on until the end. How could he have any strength left? If this punch didn't hit, there would be nothing left.
The referee weighed it for a while, raised his arm, and announced loudly,
"The first round, a draw!"
This was the first draw in the National University Martial Arts Competitions!
When the referee shouted, he waved his arm, which made a crisp sound. A strong wind blew away the "hidden fragrance" lingering around Lou Cheng, making his mind clear. He no longer saw everything in slow motion, including himself.
Lou Cheng wasn't upset about the result of this round. On the contrary, he was quite happy. In terms of actual combat strength, Ren Li was indeed 30% stronger than him. She was also more powerful than Peng Leyun in December last year. If he hadn't suppressed her with his momentum and the momentum of a life-and-death struggle, it would have been reasonable for him to lose.
But now, with the experience of this match, I can summarize and improve again!
Very good! I've made great progress compared to the last Heavenly Son of the Age battle!
I won't lose face again!
Lou Cheng turned sideways and waved his fist at Yan Zheke, who was sitting in the seats of Songcheng University Martial Arts Club. He waved his fist weakly but in high spirits!
Yan Zheke exhaled, her eyes shining. Subconsciously, she gave a thumbs-up to Lou Cheng. The audience also exhaled and applauded. They were cheering for this classic battle between Lou Cheng and Ren Li, and for the martial arts style they had shown!
They deserved to be called the Heavenly Son of the Age!
