Your skills are excellent, and now I have them too.

Chapter 30 One Person One Punch

buzzing.

The entire audience was still reeling from that punch.

"It is said that three people have already broken through to the next level."

"The difference between people is just too big. I haven't even mastered Qi cultivation yet."

"No need to rush. Those kinds of geniuses are no longer relevant to us. My mom said that when she was in the army, most people took several days to break through to a higher level."

As soon as Zhang Zilian entered the testing ground, he heard these words, and he couldn't help but feel a little smug.

Although he hasn't broken through to the next realm yet, he's already able to draw qi into his body and make it circulate through his meridians, albeit with some difficulty. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to break through to the next realm tomorrow.

This was relatively fast progress in their entire dormitory, because he was assigned to an eight-person room where everyone else had a talent level between 60 and 70, making him the strongest.

Although he has a personality that likes to show off, he is also very self-aware. He never gets jealous of top geniuses who are far superior to him, and he doesn't even think that he is the same species as them. He will automatically remove those who break through to a higher realm overnight from his mind.

So he feels great right now. He has exceptional talent in his left hand (72 points) and connections in his right hand (the village elder). He doesn't know how he could possibly lose.

He found a girl in the same group as him in the crowd and asked, "What's going on now?"

Facing this talented and well-connected colleague, the other party became somewhat obsequious and immediately replied, "Just now, someone who broke through to a higher realm tested their fist strength, and it was more than 16 times stronger than others. Xu Qingbo of the Seven Formations only had more than 10 times stronger."

Xu Qingbo was the one who broke through the realm in the previous test, but he has already left.

Zhang Zilian nodded. He had already gotten close to that person and established a relationship with him, so the fact that the other party had broken through to a higher realm was not a bad thing for him.

"Oh, it's Qingbo. I had dinner with him yesterday. Let me see if I recognize this 16-year-old?"

A stranger standing nearby couldn't help but turn around and glance at him.

You know this person? You know that person? What are you pretending for?

Zhang Zilian stood on tiptoe and looked over the crowd of people beside him. He saw the tall and burly Chen Qinhu standing next to a group of instructors.

Holy crap!

He said to the girl in the same group, "Isn't that Chen Qinhu? He's my classmate, I told you about him before."

"Really? I hadn't even thought of that before." The girl's eyes became even more eager.

At this moment, the person who had been secretly criticizing the girl retracted his earlier doubts. Judging from the girl's reaction, it seemed that this slick-haired, pretentious guy wasn't really bragging.

Suddenly, Zhang Zilian's expression changed, and he let out a sharp explosion.

"Lu Zhao!!"

Following Chen Qinhu's figure, he saw the next person about to be tested.

Although at this moment, an instructor was helping to replace the leather gloves that Chen Qinhu had just damaged, and Lu Zhao's fist had not yet been thrown, Zhang Zilian already had a vague premonition.

Lu Zhao wasn't the type to enjoy playing the clown. He wouldn't usually go up and throw a punch with only 16 times the force after the previous person had thrown one, then scratch his head and chuckle: "Hehe, I'm really bad."

If he's willing to make a move now, it means he's confident.

"That can't be...."

Zhang Zilian swallowed, his feelings a mix of emotions.

I don't know why, but I'm a little afraid to watch it, yet I can't help but want to.

Then he saw Lu Zhao walk up and throw a seemingly ordinary punch.

Snapped.

13.87.

"..."

Zhang Zilian was dumbfounded.

No, huh? Is this correct?

He generally doesn't care about the difference between himself and a true genius, unless that genius was originally his "little brother".

Of course, Lu Zhao and he didn't have that kind of relationship. It's just that Zhang Zilian tacitly agreed that among the six-person group, apart from Chen Qinhu, he was the most promising.

The scene before him was so different from what he had assumed was that he stood there, oblivious to all the sounds around him.

The girl next to him followed his gaze and froze.

The passersby next to him, who had just thought he was bragging, also froze.

This behavior is like an infectious disease, radiating outwards from many scattered sources.

More and more people looked at the numbers on the machine, and the originally noisy discussion gradually quieted down until it disappeared.

Chen Qinhu's punch caused the stadium to erupt in a frenzy, like a tsunami.

Lu Zhao delivered another punch, gradually calming the boiling sea.

Chang Fei still had his hands in his pockets, but his jaw almost dropped.

"What the hell? Luckily I phrased it subtly earlier. If I had openly told him not to embarrass himself, I would have been the one embarrassed!!"

He felt a wave of fear, but as someone who had been on the battlefield and had seen life and death, he had a strong mental fortitude, so he only stood there for a moment before regaining his senses.

He deliberately spoke in a low voice, "Well, I didn't want you to take the test, so as not to scare the others and make them feel inferior. But since things have come to this, I have no choice but to lay it all out."

Lu Zhao chuckled and didn't take it seriously.

He saw the numbers and realized he was three points behind Chen Qinhu, but he felt no resentment.

This has nothing to do with the two having a good relationship. It's mainly because Zhou Changsheng once said that when you first start cultivating, the method of cultivation largely determines your strength.

At this stage, the improvement in various aspects such as the body's meridians and internal energy is relatively limited. There are no special skills, no suitable martial arts technology equipment routes, and no proficiency in martial arts routines. Whoever has the greatest strength is the most powerful.

Chen Qinhu's Chongxuan Method emphasizes strength, and his body is well-suited to it, so it's normal for his stats to be high.

Lu Zhao was pleased that his "body strengthening method" still gave him significantly more punching power than those who practiced walking techniques.

There is a hidden logic behind this.

Zhou Changsheng also practiced the "Body Strengthening Method". The special skill he comprehended was "Empty Wind and Long Silence", and the basic principle of this special skill is to release a large amount of energy.

This means that the "Strengthening Body Method" focuses more on internal energy than physical strength; otherwise, Zhou Changsheng would not have been able to comprehend such a special skill.

The fact that his training method, which focuses on internal energy, can make his punching power much higher than that of ordinary people indicates that the overall value of this training method is very strong, and that this strength is evident even in the early stages.

Lu Zhao now believes that being able to break through to a higher realm in the middle of the night is not only due to the effects of auxiliary special skills, but also inseparable from the cultivation method.

"Boss, it's 7:35 now. We both work at this time, so there shouldn't be 20 spots left yet."

After thinking it through, he immediately spoke about what he cared about most.

No matter what, the reason for rushing to conduct the public test is still to obtain the Refinement Pill, isn't it?

However, upon hearing his words, the instructors who had been filled with envy and shock came to their senses and couldn't help but chuckle.

Chen Qinhu's instructor said, "Little...brother, do you think it's easy to master something overnight?"

He originally wanted to say "kid," but suddenly remembered that this boy in front of him, whom he didn't have much of an impression of before, might also be a prodigy, so he changed his address.

As for "entry level", it is the accurate term for the transition from an ordinary person to a warrior. Only the subsequent advancement in realm can be called "breakthrough". Since the new recruits had no prior experience with martial arts, they were actually using the wrong terminology.

Lu Zhao wasn't intimidated at all and countered, "In any case, we both have Refinement Pills, right?"

Yes, yes, yes.

Chang Fei was both amused and exasperated, thinking to himself that this guy was clearly a genius chosen from among thousands, yet he acted like a petty, calculating commoner.

If Lu Zhao could eavesdrop on his thoughts, he would definitely stand there with his hands on his hips, completely justified.

"I'm just an ordinary citizen, what, you're not happy about that?"
