Chapter 35: Don’t Insult a Wild Bull

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Lu Mingcheng was extremely vexed.

After fighting with Chu Nan for a while, he had long seen that Chu Nan was indeed only a low-level Overlord Body Martial Artist. In his eyes, he was no different from those Novice Martial Artists.

He would usually deal with such an opponent in a few punches.

However, after fighting Chu Nan for so long, this kid was like a slippery loach that he could not even touch a few times.

Although his true strength was far stronger than Chu Nan, how could he unleash his strength when he could not even touch it?

“Kid, if you have the ability, don’t dodge! As a martial artist, don’t you feel ashamed?” Seeing that Chu Nan had once again seemingly narrowly dodged his punch, Lu Mingcheng could not help but shout angrily.

Chu Nan retreated. Seeing that Lu Mingcheng did not continue to pursue him and instead stopped, he breathed heavily and stopped. He took a deep breath and calmed his heavy breathing before laughing.

“You mean to make me stand here and fight you? Are you serious? I’m an Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist, and you’re an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist. You want me to fight you head-on? Are you stupid or am I stupid?”

The audience below the stage immediately laughed.

“That’s right. You, an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, ran over to fight an Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist. You’re bullying the weak. Isn’t it shameful?”

“Ha, I’m dying of laughter. I’ve never seen anyone say that they have to stand on the spot to fight during a martial arts competition. Are these still martial artists? They’re clearly two wild bulls, right?”

“Hey, don’t insult the wild bulls, okay? At the very least, they know how to walk around in circles and use their strongest horns to block people. Have you ever seen two wild bulls fight and directly push each other around?”

“This guy is also an Internal Breath realm Martial Artist? Tsk, I thought that an Internal Breath realm Martial Artist was very powerful. After all this, he’s only this stupid…”

…

Lu Mingcheng’s sudden interruption made almost all the second grade students dissatisfied. Previously, only two people had spoken, but now that they saw that he could not defeat Chu Nan after so long, they felt even more disdain towards him. Therefore, the group of students directly mocked him.

On the stage, Lu Mingcheng’s face alternated between green and white. It had been a long time since he defeated Chu Nan and it had already made him feel ashamed. Now that he was mocked by the students below the stage, he was even more embarrassed and furious. He grunted and kicked without any hesitation.

However, to his surprise, Chu Nan did not dodge this time. Instead, he took a step forward and punched out.

“Ha, this kid still can’t stand my provocation.”

Seeing that Chu Nan no longer dodged, Lu Mingcheng was immediately overjoyed. The Internal Breath in his body circulated and an obvious light green aura was attached to his leg.

After being kicked, even if he did not die, he would be heavily injured!

However, in the next moment, Lu Mingcheng suddenly discovered that the position Chu Nan took was extremely ingenious. The speed and angle of his punch were also abnormally exquisite. If the current situation did not change, then before his kick landed on Chu Nan, the punch would accurately hit the dantian of his lower abdomen.

Every martial artist knew that the dantian was the foundation of everything. If this place was firmly struck by Chu Nan’s punch, then Lu Mingcheng’s dantian’s Internal Breath would definitely be greatly affected, causing his Internal Breath to be in chaos. Even if this kick landed on Chu Nan, it would be powerless and pose no threat.

Lu Mingcheng was also a martial artist with rich combat experience. When he saw that the situation was bad, he immediately changed his move. The right leg that he kicked out shrunk back and bent slightly, protecting his abdomen. His body still leaned forward, but he changed his move to a knee strike.

Although this strike had weakened due to the sudden change in move, the knee was the hardest part of the lower body. Coupled with his Internal Breath, once it struck Chu Nan, the lethality would be greater than the previous kick.

However, just as Lu Mingcheng changed his move, Chu Nan acted as if he had foreseen this. The moment he retracted his leg, he leaned back and allowed Lu Mingcheng’s knee to brush past his nose.

This scene looked extremely dangerous. In fact, the wind brought about by Lu Mingcheng’s knee even caused the hair on Chu Nan’s forehead to flutter. However, because he did not touch it, he was still unable to cause any damage.

On the contrary, after Chu Nan avoided this strike, his right fist did not change. However, because his body was leaning back, he took the opportunity to change his angle and curl up, hitting the inside of Lu Mingcheng’s right calf.

Bang!

Although he had Internal Breath protection, Lu Mingcheng had mainly concentrated his Internal Breath on his knees earlier. The defense at the base of his calf was not tight, and the force of Chu Nan’s punch was as high as 323.459832 kilograms. After his punch landed, there was a slight cracking sound.

Lu Mingcheng only felt a sharp pain coming from his calf, and his body tilted.

If not for his timely reaction, he would have used his left foot to jump back and stabilize his body. He would have been knocked to the ground by Chu Nan’s punch.

Lu Mingcheng exerted strength with his left foot and tapped the ground with his right foot. He stood on one foot and looked at Chu Nan in shock.

This guy had actually injured him!

Chu Nan shook his head lightly with a dissatisfied expression.

If he could successfully mobilize his Internal Breath with this punch, the force would at least be twice as great.

If Lu Mingcheng’s calf received such a punch, it would at least fracture and he would lose most of his combat strength.

Although Chu Nan’s punch had a certain effect, it would at most cause a slight injury to Lu Mingcheng’s calf, meridians, and bones. It would not affect him much and it would not give him any confidence in winning.

In the previous ten minutes, although Chu Nan had been avoiding most of the time, he had actually been observing Lu Mingcheng’s combat style and collecting his various data to determine his combat strategy.

After some analysis, Lu Mingcheng was indeed worthy of being an Internal Breath expert. His Internal Breath could circulate throughout his body at all times in battle and unleash extremely powerful strength, causing Chu Nan to be unable to fight him.

However, he had a huge problem. He liked to completely focus his Internal Breath on one point, which neglected the defense that belonged to other parts.

Generally speaking, this was not a very serious flaw.

After all, ordinary Internal Breath Martial Artists could only mobilize their Internal Breath just now. To be able to gather their Internal Breath at one point like Lu Mingcheng and create an even stronger lethality was already considered very outstanding.

Even if this would cause some flaws, there were already very few martial artists of the same level who could see these flaws, let alone grasp them.

However, Chu Nan was one of those existences.

After the punch, Chu Nan had the upper hand in this battle for the first time. He did not give Lu Mingcheng any chance to catch his breath. Just as he retreated, he took another step forward and followed up with a punch.

The third stance and first move of the Hong Clan’s Long Fist—Shooting Horse Rush Fist.

Lu Mingcheng had just been injured and could not dodge in time. Moreover, he did not intend to dodge at all. When he saw Chu Nan’s punch, he grunted and received it with a punch.

In the end, Chu Nan was only an Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist. If he wanted to fight head-on with an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, he would welcome it the most.

However, it was obvious that Chu Nan was not that stupid. When he saw Lu Mingcheng’s punch, he only took a wrong step and his body slid slightly to the left. He happened to dodge the punch and aimed at the right.

Because Lu Mingcheng’s right calf had been struck by Chu Nan’s punch earlier, it was still in unbearable pain and it was difficult for him to move. Naturally, he could not dodge Chu Nan’s punch in time and could only barely turn his body to the side. He transformed his fist into a palm and planned to receive it head-on.

However, Chu Nan flipped his wrist and his body sank to the right. His right fist was retracted and his left fist followed his twisted body.

The second stance and first move of the Hong Clan’s Long Fist—Retreating Horse Rush Fist!

This punch greatly exceeded Lu Mingcheng’s expectations. Moreover, it just happened to choose the largest gap in his right body, causing him to be unable to dodge at all. He was even unable to block it with his palm, and he could only withdraw his body with all his might while his arms protected his body as he forcefully received it.

Bang!

Chu Nan’s punch did not change its move again. Instead, it firmly struck Lu Mingcheng’s arms.

Lu Mingcheng’s body swayed for a moment before returning to normal.

“Heh, kid, in the end, you’re only a rookie Overlord Body Martial Artist. Even if I stand here and let you hit me, can you do anything to me?” Feeling that the force of Chu Nan’s punch was still unable to break through the defense of his Internal Breath, Lu Mingcheng sneered.

Chu Nan glanced at him and did not respond. He threw another punch.

Lu Mingcheng counterattacked again, but just like before, after a few changes, Chu Nan forced him to defend again.

However, he did not panic this time. He only set up his Internal Breath to protect his vital points and planned to let Chu Nan attack.

Up until now, he still did not understand why Chu Nan’s external martial technique was so powerful, causing him, an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist, to be unable to gain any advantage and instead be restricted everywhere.

However, he knew very well that the greatest difference between him and Chu Nan was the Internal Breath.

In the end, Chu Nan was only an Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist. Without enough Internal Breath to support him, he was unable to suppress his powerful attacks.

He only needed to be careful and Chu Nan could do nothing about it.

When Chu Nan was exhausted, he would definitely be unable to maintain his nearly perfect movement technique and fist technique. That would be the best time to counterattack.

In his excitement, he forgot.

Earlier, he had completely suppressed Chu Nan, but now, he could only barely protect himself and try to counterattack.

When he saw Chu Nan’s punch, Lu Mingcheng raised his arms and planned to defend against Chu Nan’s attack again. He would take the opportunity to use his Internal Breath to counterattack and make him suffer a loss.

Bang!

Chu Nan punched the arms of Lu Mingcheng.

Lu Mingcheng only felt a copious and terrifying force coming from Chu Nan’s fist. It actually directly scattered the Internal Breath gathered on his arms, and then an extremely terrifying force surged in. His arms emitted a terrifying cracking sound, and then he felt his entire body fly into the air.

In the next moment, Lu Mingcheng’s body had already flown out of the platform and smashed heavily into the hard ground below.
