Faced with a player like Gu Yuan, who had few weaknesses, was the most difficult to deal with. It was rumored that his defensive power was also the strongest among those in the Body Tempering realm, and no one had ever managed to break his guard!
Sighing, Wu Chang put away his phone and went to bed.
The next day.
On the stage.
Wu Chang looked at Gu Yuan, a tall and sturdy figure who rarely showed a helpless expression. He was born with a pair of spiritual eyes, which could see the flow of power that ordinary people could not.
As for Gu Yuan in front of him, a colorless radiance permeated his body. Although Wu Chang didn't know what it was, anyone with discerning eyes could tell it was extraordinary.
He estimated that his attacks would not be able to inflict effective damage, but he was not one to give up. The outcome would only be decided after a fight.
He gathered the surging blood and qi within his body and stepped forward, charging directly at Gu Yuan.
"Good one!" Gu Yuan let out a long roar.
The blood and qi within his body surged like a flood. Gu Yuan did not dare to be careless, immediately activating the Rib and Tendon Revival technique, with veins bulging on his arms, his muscles expanding, erupting with powerful strength.
Bang!
With a dull thud of flesh colliding with flesh, it seemed to trigger a chain reaction, and the two began to exchange blows frantically.
Exploding Fist: Consecutive Strikes!
Gu Yuan's face was expressionless as his powerful fists cut through the air, letting out a sharp whistle!
On the other hand, Wu Chang gritted his teeth, sweat dripping from his face. Even so, his fists continued to strike, his power no less than Gu Yuan's. To outsiders, they appeared to be evenly matched, but only Wu Chang knew the pain involved.
Damn it! How are this kid's fists so hard? With every collision, Wu Chang felt like he was hitting not flesh and blood, but a figure cast in pig iron!
As they moved around, they exchanged blows no less than a hundred times. Wu Chang gradually became fatigued. Such high-intensity bursts, even for someone at the peak of Body Tempering who had broken through human limits, were unsustainable.
What was even more desperate was that as time went on, the skin on his fists began to crack due to the intense fighting, while Gu Yuan remained completely unharmed. What a monster!
Wu Chang felt a surge of grief and indignation. He couldn't admit defeat directly. If his grandfather realized he wasn't serious about the match and intentionally lost, he'd be beaten severely when he got home.
At this moment, Gu Yuan was also astonished. He hadn't expected Wu Chang's stamina to be so strong. It was nearly one hundred and fifty exchanges, and he could still keep up with his rhythm. As expected, the top-ranked players were indeed different.
If Wu Chang knew what Gu Yuan was thinking, he would probably be so angry that he'd spit blood. Who could possibly keep up with you! If it weren't for his spiritual eyes, he would have lost your rhythm long ago. It was only by relying on his extraordinary dynamic vision to capture the trajectory of your punches that he could exchange blows with you accurately!
Gu Yuan's eyes narrowed. He wanted to end the fight quickly. In his mind, a ferocious black tiger, clad in black and emanating a chilling aura, appeared, letting out a sky-shaking roar that instilled fear in people's hearts!
Wu Chang felt a bad premonition. He knew Gu Yuan had many unexpected trump cards. Damn it, with such strength, he still resorted to sneak attacks, which was truly exasperating!
Roar!
Wu Chang's eyes widened in alarm. Not good!
A heaven-shattering tiger roar erupted from Gu Yuan's mouth. Wu Chang, who bore the brunt of it at close range, suddenly felt his vision blur, his head spinning.
Seizing this opportunity, Gu Yuan unleashed a cannon fist!
Exploding Fist!
The fist, imbued with immense power, landed directly on Wu Chang's chest.
Pfft! Crack!
Wu Chang spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, accompanied by the sound of breaking ribs, and was sent flying backward.
The intense pain instantly jolted Wu Chang awake. He tried to struggle to his feet, but the movement aggravated his injuries, causing him to grimace in pain. A quick internal scan revealed at least three broken ribs. This time, he had suffered a huge loss!
"I surrender!" Wu Chang raised his hand helplessly. After uttering the words, he lay on the ground like a wilted vegetable, awaiting the arrival of the medical staff.
Gu Yuan was a little speechless and said nothing more, turning and leaving the stage.
Gu Yuan would face true experts next.
It seemed he needed to make preparations as soon as possible. He deeply felt a lack of techniques. He should go to the Martial Pavilion to have a look.
He called Chu Ling and left the arena directly. There were no more matches for him today, so he could go and choose some martial skills.
After sending Chu Ling back to the dormitory, he went directly to the Martial Pavilion located in the center of the dormitory area. Gu Yuan stood at the entrance of the Martial Pavilion, gazing at the more grand and imposing building than the one in Tianyuan City, murmuring, "So damn rich!"
Then he shook his head and entered the Martial Pavilion.
A lady in a qipao approached him. Gu Yuan glanced at her a few times and confirmed in his mind that she was a very attractive person. Cough, just kidding.
Gu Yuan directly stated his requirements to the sales assistant: he needed a fist technique that could handle various situations and an explosive footwork technique, with a budget of under two hundred thousand.
There was no other way, Gu Yuan was too poor right now. A good martial skill would cost tens of millions, which he simply couldn't afford. He'd have to buy some cheaper ones to practice first, and then start making a fortune once he went out!
The sales assistant understood Gu Yuan's requirements and first led him to the fist technique section, pointing to a counter and saying, "Sir, this area contains martial skills that meet your requirements."
"Alright, I'll take a look myself," Gu Yuan nodded and stepped forward to examine the martial skills.
"Long River Fist," no good!
"Crimson Flame Fist," no good!
...
None of them were suitable!
Gu Yuan couldn't help but feel a bit dejected. Why were there no martial arts that suited him?
It could only be said that Gu Yuan's budget was too low.
This was the last book. Gu Yuan looked at the martial skill before him.
Unexpectedly, a large red character was pasted above the martial skill: Danger!
"What's going on?" Gu Yuan turned to the sales assistant and asked in confusion.
"Guest, this is an extremely dangerous martial skill. According to its original rank, its price shouldn't be this low. However, due to the extremely difficult and perilous cultivation process, the price has been reduced. But even so, not many people choose to cultivate it. Guest, I suggest you do not try it lightly," the sales assistant said to Gu Yuan very seriously.
"Alright, I understand. Open it so I can take a look." After hearing this, Gu Yuan became even more interested in this martial skill.
The sales assistant nodded. She was just a sales assistant, and she had said enough. To say more would be impolite.
She took out her sales assistant card and swiped it over the word "Danger." The glass cover automatically opened, revealing a martial skill with a dark yellow hue.
"Huh!" Gu Yuan let out a soft exclamation. In his vision, a faint cyan light flickered continuously. This was Qi Manifestation?!
Gu Yuan couldn't help but feel a surge of pleasant surprise as he looked at the four blood-red characters on the martial skill, which exuded a hint of ferocity.
Gu Yuan read softly:
"Seven Fiends Slaughter Fist!"
