As if Shifeng's words had pierced Yi Kui's soul, Yi Kui's complexion immediately turned ashen.
He was indeed surprised by the fact that Shi Feng had blocked his punch. However, that was all he could do.
The reason for his surprise was that Shi Feng was actually a neutralizing grandmaster. Although Shi Feng's punch had been fierce and domineering, he had not used his full strength. He had only used 50% of his strength. After all, if he caused a huge commotion, he would not be able to clean up the mess. Not even Lu Tiandi could protect him.
However, he had never thought that Shifeng would take advantage of his decision to hold back, turning him into a laughingstock in everyone's eyes.
He was a Henglian grandmaster. Even the family heads of the various international corporations had to treat him with respect, treating him as an honored guest. Even neutralizing grandmasters would scurry away like rats when they saw him. Since when had he ever suffered such humiliation?
"Brat, you're courting death!"
Following which, Yi Kui changed his footwork and took a step forward. He then threw a punch at Shi Feng with his other hand.
Half-step Collapsing Fist!
This time, Yi Kui did not hold back. All he wanted to do was make Shifeng regret his previous words.
Like before, Shifeng blocked Yi Kui's punch with his palm. It was as if he did not notice that Yi Kui had gone all-out this time.
Seeing this, Yi Kui could not help but reveal a cold sneer.
To a neutralizing grandmaster, 50% of his Strength was indeed not much of a threat. Neutralizing grandmasters could easily block his attack by relying on their Strength and techniques. However, it was a different story if he used his full strength. Even a neutralizing grandmaster wouldn't dare receive his attack with their bare hands. Otherwise, their bones would break. Yet, Shi Feng had actually used the same method to receive his punch.
Boom!
Along with the sound of an explosion, the shockwave from this punch was much stronger than before.
However, this time, Yi Kui stared at Shifeng in astonishment. The outcome of this punch was exactly the same as his first. Shifeng's palm had blocked his punch …
Yi Kui was stupefied by this outcome. He could not understand what was going on.
"Could it be that I was worried that something would happen, so I instinctively held back?"
Yi Kui could not help but wonder. This was the only reasonable explanation. Otherwise, how could a neutralizing grandmaster block his punch?
However, while Yi Kui was stunned, Shifeng did not give him any time to react. Both of his hands lifted, pushing Yi Kui's arms away. Then, he took a step forward and sent a palm strike at Yi Kui's heart.
The speed of this palm strike was so fast that Yi Kui had no time to react. It was like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water. It only touched Yi Kui for a moment before it ended.
Yi Kui didn't mind at all because his body had already formed an instinctive defense. The moment the enemy attacked him, all his muscles would tense up like steel and dissolve the impact of the force like flowing water.
Shi Feng had already trained his body's resistance to attacks to the point where he could combine both hardness and softness. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become a Henglian grandmaster.
Neutralizing grandmasters were known for their techniques, while Henglian grandmasters prided themselves on the strength of their bodies. To put it bluntly, a Henglian grandmaster's body was resilient. No matter how many times a Henglian grandmaster hit them, they would still be able to endure.
Boom!
Despite taking Shifeng's palm strike, Yi Kui did not retreat by even half a step. Instead, he calmly looked at Shifeng as if he were mocking Shifeng's palm strike, saying that it was nothing more than a breeze.
None of the people present were surprised by this.
After all, Henglian grandmasters were so powerful. It was a joke to think that they could injure these monsters with just their fists and feet. This was also why the various major corporations in the Upper Zone desperately tried to recruit or befriend these people.
"Brat, I admit that your strength is not small. You can block my fist, but it's impossible for you to hurt me." However, you won't be able to injure me, "Yi Kui said disdainfully as he patted his clothes." On the other hand, how much Stamina can a neutralizing grandmaster like you possibly have to endure my attacks? "
A neutralizing grandmaster's control over their bodies was indeed extraordinary. However, compared to a Henglian grandmaster's physical prowess, a neutralizing grandmaster's stamina was far inferior.
A Henglian grandmaster could fight for three days and three nights without any problems. However, neutralizing grandmasters would be fortunate if they could last half a day.
Because of this, neutralizing grandmasters often cursed Henglian grandmasters as a bunch of unkillable turtles, saying that they were a bunch of simple-minded brutes with only brawn.
Muxin, who watched the battle from the sidelines, grew a little worried. She never thought that Lu Tiandi would be so powerful as to make a Henglian grandmaster his butler. Meanwhile, the Boulder Corporation had only managed to hire a Henglian grandmaster as their family's Honorary Elder after paying a huge price. Aside from the family's Patriarch, everyone else in the Boulder Corporation revered this Honorary Elder.
Yet, Lu Tiandi actually treated such a great expert as a servant.
Normally, the various major corporations would try to avoid such a monster. After all, getting entangled with such a monster would be a huge headache even in the Upper Zone.
"It's useless?"
At this moment, Shifeng looked at Yi Kui in surprise.
Ever since his Concentration standard had improved, he had discovered that his control over his body in the real world had improved by a large margin. In addition, his physique had also improved. Now, he could use some of the techniques he had only dared to use in God's Domain in the real world.
This was also why he had tried to provoke Yi Kui.
After all, he was very curious about where his current limits lay.
When he fought with Yi Kui, he was able to block Yi Kui's fist with one palm. It wasn't just a simple palm. He had used the Triple Drive, or rather, the simplified version of the Six Extreme Slashes of Sword Light, the Three Extreme Slashes of Sword Light.
In the blink of an eye, Shi Feng had landed three consecutive palm strikes on Yi Kui's fist. The range of these palm strikes was extremely small, and the control over one's body was beyond the limits of the human body.
This was also why Shi Feng had been able to block Yi Kui's full-powered attack. Otherwise, even if his physique had improved significantly in the Upper Zone, he would've most likely had to dodge Yi Kui's full-powered attack.
Meanwhile, Shi Feng had also used his current limits against Yi Kui's palm strike.
Sword Light Four Extreme Slashes!
Although Shi Feng's palm strike looked ordinary, he had executed four palm strikes with his full strength. Executing four palms as one had also consumed a lot of his Concentration. He didn't even know if he could execute the move a second time.
When Yi Kui saw Shifeng's dazed expression, he could not help but laugh.
"Brat! Now … it's … my … turn … to … deal … with … you … "
Just as Yi Kui was about to attack Shi Feng, his body suddenly shuddered, and he fell to the ground. Moreover, his breathing became somewhat labored, and he couldn't even speak properly. Even his vision became slightly blurry.
This sudden change stunned Yi Kui. He couldn't understand what had just happened.
"Brat … What … did you do to me?"
Yi Kui forced himself to raise his head and look at Shi Feng, confusion filling his eyes. He simply could not understand how Shi Feng had managed to injure him so severely with a single palm strike. Even standing up now was difficult for him …
When Yi Kui collapsed to the ground, everyone present was shocked.
"He defeated a Henglian grandmaster with just one palm strike?!"
"Just who is he?"
Everyone looked at Shifeng, who looked like a passerby, as if they were looking at a monster. They even felt that the scene before them was too fake. Who would believe that Shi Feng had defeated a Henglian grandmaster with just one palm strike?
"I think I remember this person. Some time ago, two people simultaneously cleared the Mental Path in Yuantian City, and one of them was even reserved by the Boulder Corporation. According to rumors, that person is Ling Yi's Guild Leader, Hei Yan. Although Hei Yan looks different from God's Domain's Guild Leader, Hei Yan, he should be Ling Yi's Guild Leader!"
"What?! He's that Hei Yan who forced Lu Xingluo, the Starline Corporation's heir, to step down?! "
Among the crowd, some of the people who had done some research on Shifeng recognized the Shifeng. For a time, the crowd on the street went into an uproar.
None of them had ever thought that Hei Yan, the Sword Emperor of God's Domain, would actually appear here. Moreover, he had defeated a Henglian grandmaster with just one palm strike. His strength was simply frightening.
"Is he that Hei Yan Big Sis mentioned?"
Ji Luorong gaped in shock as she looked at Shifeng. She couldn't believe her eyes. Shi Feng was rumored to be God's Domain's number one expert. Even the Five Great Super Guilds had to treat him with caution.
