Chapter 168: Shocking the Entire Ground!

Chapter 168: Shocking the Entire Ground!

At the training ground.

Jiang Ning glided through the air like a white crane, then landed gracefully on the arena.

"What a fool!!" Wang Jin, who was below the arena, immediately stomped his feet.

Seeing this, zhou xing sighed slightly, "Brother Jiang Ning is too rash! He’s too early to step onto the arena!"

Liu Sansheng, watching Jiang Ning on the arena, shook his head: "He’s asking for humiliation!!"

Then, he walked in the direction of where the Martial Academy students were.

Li Qing, below the arena, looking at Jiang Ning, her brows instantly furrowed, worry coloring her expression.

"Brother Jiang, what’s the point of this! Stepping on the arena so early, he will surely be targeted by the stronger students in the Martial Academy.”

Beside her, Cheng Ran also had a furrowed brow, muttering to himself.

"It makes sense thatBrother Jiang Ning said he has a way to bring me into the Inspection Office, it turns out he’s going to vie for the Captain position."

"If he becomes the captain, there might truly be a way to have me promoted to the Inspection office!"

"But the competition for the Captain position is too difficult, even Fu Shiquan was easily defeated!"

On the other side.

The places where the Cao, Liu, and Xie families were.

Cao Zijian, looking at Jiang Ning on the arena, "This kid actually stepped up as well?"

"What, do you want to go up and teach him a lesson?" Liu ZhaoNan asked beside him.

"If it were any later, I really would’ve gone up!" Cao Zijian spoke, then continued, "But now it’s too early, among the Martial Academy students, there are top-notch eighth-rank martial artists who haven’t stepped up yet. I don’t want to clash with them."

"Brother Zijian, why have you lost that sharp and enterprising spirit of the past?"Liu ZhaoNan smiled mockingly.

Cao Zijian, upon hearing this, glanced at Liu ZhaoNana with a faint expression. "If you have the guts, why don’t you step up now?"

Liu ZhaoNan, upon hearing this, shook his head repeatedly.

"Forget it! I came with a death order! As the one with the Liu Family’s best hopes for the Captain position, I cannot be rash."

Cao Zijian said, "I am the same!"

Then, CaoZijian looked at xie Xiaojiu not far away, who was wearing a tight black training outfit and holding a silver-white sword.

"I wonder what this young woman from the Xie Family is thinking?"

"She has received the investment from Lin Qingyi, her strength is above both of ours!"

Upon hearing this, Liu ZhaoNan glanced at xie XiaoJiu not far away, who was dressed in a pure black tight training outfit, her slender body accentuated, her skin like white jade.

A trace of infatuation flashed in Liu ZhaoNan's eyes.

After a moment of distraction, Liu ZhaoNana recovered his gaze.

"I think she should be braver than the two of us!"

On the other side.

On the arena.

Jiang Ning landed empty-handed on the arena.

As for that spirit weapon, he did not bring it along.

Because here, there are too many powerful individuals.

An ordinary person cannot appreciate the value of a spirit weapon, but someone like HongMingHu, who has seen the world, might not overlook it.

Wealth should not be flaunted, it’s the way to secure one’s place.

"Any of you willing to step up and teach!"Jiang Ning cupped his hands to the crowd below.

"Ha!Jiang Ning actually took the lead! This is getting interesting!"Someone's voice was suddenly filled with the intent of watching a drama.

"JiangNing is the banner of our Luoshui County! He mustn’t embarrass us!"

"Who cares about losing face? Even if Jiangning loses, he is better than those who don’t have the courage to step onto the arena!"Someone immediately spoke up for JiangNing.

"Indeed! What you said is right! There’s reason! I support JiangNing!"

"."

At this moment, as the pride of Luoshui County, they tacitly agreed not to step up.

First, as fellow county residents, defeating JiangNing would not be glorious.

Second, because none of them had the confidence to surpass JiangNing afterward, they could withstand the challenge from the Martial Academy students!

Since they did not have the confidence, going up to challenge JiangNing would be meaningless.

On the other side.

In the direction of the Martial Academy students.

"Finally, it’s getting interesting!"The face of the thin and sallow He Jinyun instantly showed an interested expression.

He continued, "This person is the first native of Luoshui County to voluntarily step onto the arena, right?"

"Hmm!"Qin Xuan nodded, "I’ve been noticing him for a while! He’s a talented one, even if he loses, I would like to recruit him under my command."

"Oh?"He Jinyun looked at qin xuan with a surprised expression, "Don’t you want to compete for the Deputy commander position?"

"Qin Xuan suddenly smiled, "I almost forgot, there's also the competition for the Deputy Leader position later."

As he spoke, Qin Xuan shook his head and smiled.

At the same time, a young man leaped onto the arena and spoke, "The genius of Luoshui County? I'll give it a shot!"

The young man cupped his hands and said, "A student of the Martial Academy, Lu Yuan, at the Ninth Stage Mastery, seeks guidance!"

Upon hearing this, the area below the arena suddenly erupted in commotion.

"Ninth Stage Mastery? Is he crazy? How dare he challenge an Eighth Rank?"

"Brother, his Ninth Stage is not like ours. He's a student of the Martial Academy!"

"If Jiang Ning truly loses, we'll be utterly humiliated!"

---

On the arena,

"Ninth Stage?"

Jiang Ning smiled, and his body suddenly moved, transforming into a shadow.

With the perfection of the Five Animal Fist, he possessed the explosive power of a tiger, the strength of a bear, and the agility of a monkey.

As the Five Animal Fist broke through its limits, Jiang Ning's speed became several times faster than before.

It was no longer just the Monkey Form Fist; it had the essence of the Monkey Strike Art he had seen in movies from his previous life.

The changes brought about by breaking through the limits were not just an increase in attributes.

It was a comprehensive transformation of the Five Animal Fist, no longer just a superficial display of the boxing technique. It had become an integral part of his every move, seamlessly integrated into his every action, every lift of his hand, and every step he took.

The tiger's explosive power became even stronger, and with each move, it was like the roar of a tiger in the mountains, unstoppable.

The bear's strength also intensified, and with each lift of his hand and step of his foot, it was as if the power of the earth itself was supporting his body.

The monkey's speed also brought about a transformation.

Speed, the ultimate pursuit of speed, was the essence of agility.

As Jiang Ning's body transformed into a shadow, it also represented his speed, which was as swift as a startled swan.

Jiang Ning chose to take action without holding back.

He didn't want to waste too much time on the competition for the Captain position.

Moreover, hiding his foundational strength was meaningless to him.

After all, there was also the competition for the Deputy Leader position later.

At this moment, even if he tried to conceal his strength, he would eventually have to reveal it.

"So fast?" Lu Yuan stared at the shadow in front of him, his expression filled with shock.

The next moment—

"Pfft!"

Before Lu Yuan could even see Jiang Ning's move, he felt an immense force strike his body, sending him flying like a falling leaf. Blood mist sprayed from his mouth and dispersed in the air.

Boom—

As Lu Yuan, the Martial Academy student, fell beneath the arena, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.

Everyone who witnessed this scene had their eyes wide open, their faces filled with astonishment.

None of them had expected that Lu Yuan, a Martial Academy student, would be completely outmatched by Jiang Ning in just one exchange!

Although there was a gap between the Eighth and Ninth Ranks, it was not usually a crushing disparity.

While the Eighth Rank was stronger, it was only slightly more powerful than the Ninth Rank, with a bit more brute force and a slightly stronger physique.

This gap was merely the difference between a weak person and a robust person.

6◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Although he was no match, it was not an impossible battle.

Moreover, this challenger at the Ninth Stage Mastery was from the Martial Academy in Dongling City.

Even Martial Academy students, when cultivating their physiques to the same level, were significantly more powerful than martial artists from small counties.

Because martial arts prowess was not only related to the degree of physical cultivation.

It was also connected to the strength of martial arts and the cultivation realm.

Even though Martial Academy students primarily practiced Lower-Rank Martial Arts, their Lower-Rank Martial Arts were among the best within the Lower-Rank category.

Not only were their martial arts more exquisite, but their might was also stronger.

At the same time, the guidance they received from renowned teachers in the Martial Academy far surpassed that of martial artists from small counties.

With the same level of talent, the mastery of martial arts in the Martial Academy could be several floors higher than in small counties.

For martial artists from small counties, achieving perfection in Lower-Rank Martial Arts was a challenge akin to finding a needle in a haystack.

In the Martial Academy, however, the difficulty of learning martial techniques was reversed, making it a one-in-ten-thousand chance.

Among Martial Academy students, those who failed to achieve perfection in Lower-Rank Martial Arts were also one-in-ten-thousand.

"This is the difference between the two."

},

"Therefore, anyone who understands this point knows that although Lu Yuan is at the Ninth Stage Mastery, in terms of power, he may not match Jiang Ning's Eighth Rank Divine Strength Realm. Still, he is not entirely without a fighting chance.",

"The advantage of the cultivation realm is enough to bridge a certain gap in physical strength."

},

"But the final result was beyond everyone's expectations.",

"With just one strike, Lu Yuan, the Ninth Stage Mastery Martial Academy student, was blasted off the arena, spitting out fresh blood."

},

"Below the arena,"

},

"So strong?"

},

"Zhou Xing's mouth hung open, his face filled with disbelief."

},

"This speed,"

},

"Wang Jin watched the scene on the arena, his pupils suddenly shrinking.",

"Wang Jin silently muttered to himself, 'His body resembles a monkey, yet he displays none of the Monkey Form Fist's techniques. The monkey essence has clearly been integrated into his very bones! But this speed, it's simply unimaginable!'"

},

"How did this kid do it?"

},

Wang Jin's mind was suddenly filled with confusion.

"What an impressive young man, I underestimated him!" exclaimed He Jinyun from the side.

Qin Xuan, clad in a black robe with golden trim, nodded slightly, "Indeed, he's incredible. His speed is so fast it's almost incomprehensible! Even with my mastery of the Flying Bird Crossing Body Art at its peak, I doubt I could match his velocity!"

He Jinyun continued, "His speed is truly remarkable! But I wonder about his strength, can he withstand the might of my hammer?"

Qin Xuan shook his head with a smile, "There's no need to guess, he definitely can't! You, with your innate divine strength, should have reached the Eighth Stage Divine Strength Realm by now!"

"Sharp eyes!" He Jinyun smiled slyly.

On the other side, the members of the Liu, Cao, and Xie families were gathered.

"Such incredible speed!" Liu Zhao Nan's eyes narrowed slightly, "I underestimated him! With this mobility technique and speed, no wonder this young man dared to step onto the stage at this moment!"

Cao Zijian's face also changed slightly at this moment.

"This young man's progress is too exaggerated! No wonder Cao Bin wanted to befriend him. A genius like this can't be killed with a single stick; we mustn't offend him too deeply."

"Indeed!" Liu Zhao Nan nodded and continued, "Seeing this today, Cao Bin made the right choice! After today, Jiang Ning's wings will gradually flourish, and offending him would be unwise."

Not far from the two men, Xie Xiaojiu, dressed in black, watched the scene on the arena with eyes that suddenly became sharp as blades.

"No wonder! No wonder Sister Qingyi mentioned you repeatedly; you indeed have talent!" Xie Xiaojiu muttered as she watched Jiang Ning on the arena.

Then she glanced at Lin Qingyi, who was sitting in the distance on the spectator stand.

"Sister Qingyi, I admit Shen Congyun has good judgment, but I also want to prove to Sister Qingyi that your vision is equally exceptional."

Xie Xiaojiu's eyes suddenly became unwaveringly determined.

The next moment, she lightly touched her toes, and her entire body soared into the air, instantly appearing above everyone's heads.

"Someone's challenging the arena!"

"It's the Ninth Miss of the Xie Clan, Xie Xiaojiu!!!"

"Is it her? She was also a legend in Luoshui County! I heard she was valued by Lin Louzhu of Wan Hua Tower and received great support!"

"Xie Xiaojiu is challenging Jiang Ning on the arena. It seems like this is the other side of the confrontation between the two Louzhu of Wan Hua Tower!"

". . ."

The crowd saw Xie Xiaojiu rising into the air, and they instantly became excited.

Xie Xiaojiu, the Ninth Miss of the Xie Clan, had gained fame in Luoshui County due to Lin Qingyi's recognition.

Later, after Xie Jiu's martial arts progress was revealed, it further proved Lin Qingyi's extraordinary vision.

At the age of seventeen, Xie Xiaojiu was noticed by Lin Qingyi when she was at the Ninth Stage of Small Accomplishment.

Then, in less than a year, when she was eighteen, Xie Xiaojiu had already reached the threshold of the Eighth Stage Martial Dao.

Xie Xiaojiu's achievement at eighteen testified to Lin Qingyi's keen eye.

Now, after another year, everyone knew that Xie Xiaojiu must have progressed significantly in the Eighth Stage Divine Strength Realm, and her strength was undoubtedly formidable.

In the blink of an eye, Xie Xiaojiu, dressed in black, landed on the arena.

She held a silver-white longsword in her hand, her black hair simply tied behind her head, revealing her long and fair swan-like neck.

"Xie Clan, Xie Xiaojiu!" Xie Xiaojiu said, her voice calm as she faced Jiang Ning.

At the same time, Lin Qingyi, sitting in the corner of the spectator stand, saw the scene on the arena and frowned.

"This silly girl is challenging now, and this young man is in trouble!"

"With the Vajra Pill, she has stepped into the Eighth Stage Martial Dao, at most, she's at the initial stage of the Eighth Stage."

"This silly girl has already achieved this step a while ago. With her martial arts talent and the resources she enjoys, it's highly likely that she's at the peak of the Eighth Stage, and her strength is estimated to be close to three thousand jin!"

"Moreover, this silly girl is innately gifted in Sword Heart, and her Sword Dao is extraordinary. She has at least three martial arts at the peak level, and she has mastered a mid-rank martial art!"

Thinking of this, Lin Qingyi couldn't help but shake her head slightly.

It seemed that this young man was about to be defeated by Xiaojiu! I'll have to make it up to him after the fight! I hope he won't resent this silly girl!

This young man's potential is even greater than this silly girl's!

If he resents her, this silly girl will suffer in the future!

The next moment, Lin Qingyi muttered to herself, "Forget it, I'll give this young man a lesson first."
