Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint-Chapter 1402 - 243: Battle for the Martial Champion! (Part 2)
At the same time, the other six people also each caught the black beam that pierced the sky and then looked at the match cards in their hands.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there are four groups of numbers on your match cards."
"Later, I will call out a certain number, and the martial scholar with the corresponding number on the match card will need to come forward."
"If you wish to compete for the honor of being the Martial Champion, Martial Eye, and Third Place in Martial Examination, you will need to prove your true skills!"
"With this grand formation, you all can fully unleash your strength without worrying about affecting the innocent."
Upon hearing Wang Hong’s words, several people looked at the others around them.
Wan Jianyi’s gaze also locked onto Jiang Ning, revealing sharpness in his eyes.
At this moment.
Wang Hong’s voice sounded again.
"Number Two, step forward."
As the words fell.
Mingxin moved forward.
Among the other six martial scholars, one saw Mingxin move and his expression slightly changed, but he too stepped out resolutely.
Watching this scene, Jiang Ning briefly recalled and remembered the person’s name.
Xie Fei.
He is ranked last in Class A.
Thinking of this, and thinking of the number one on his own match card, he roughly understood the rules on it.
It skipped match card number one, which means it skipped him, and directly let Mingxin with match card number two take the stage.
At this moment.
Mingxin and Xie Fei also arrived at the center of the training ground.
"Do you two need any weapons?" Wang Hong’s voice echoed once more in the training ground.
"This monk is proficient in fists and kicks, no need for weapons," Mingxin said.
"I am also proficient in fists and kicks!" Xie Fei responded.
"Good, in that case, both of you may begin!" Wang Hong’s voice arose.
Upon hearing, in the training ground.
Xie Fei cupped his hands towards Mingxin, "Master Mingxin, I will give my all next!"
"Please go all out, Benefactor Xie!" Mingxin clasped both hands together.
The next moment.
Boom—
Xie Fei moved, and dust exploded instantly.
Then, a shadow of a fist heavily blasted towards Mingxin’s face. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
He knew that facing Mingxin, he could only give his all to barely qualify for a battle.
At this time, facing Xie Fei’s punch that mobilized all his strength, Mingxin’s expression remained unchanged, merely maintaining his hands in prayer.
Boom!!
Another loud bang, and Xie Fei’s fist fell heavily on Mingxin’s forehead, yet a golden light appeared around Mingxin, and his body remained motionless.
But Xie Fei was knocked back, flying.
"Vajra Immortal Body??" Xie Fei asked gravely.
"Correct!" Mingxin said, "This is my strongest skill, if you can break through the protective golden light of me, I will be defeated."
"Alright! Then I shall test the Vajra Immortal Body of Vajra Temple and see how profound it is." As Xie Fei spoke, his right hand’s five fingers spread, then slowly clenched.
Seeing this, Wan Jianyi couldn’t help but shake his head.
"The gap is too wide!"
"With that punch, not only did Xie Fei not damage Mingxin in the slightest, but he injured himself instead."
"Talking with Mingxin is merely buying time for himself to recover from injuries."
As he spoke, Xie Fei moved again.
The dust exploded, accompanied by flying ash, and three figures rushed towards Mingxin together.
"Such a superb movement technique!" A man beside Jiang Ning expressed his admiration.
Jiang Ning glanced at the man, retrieved information previously stored in his mind, and knew the man’s name and details.
Wang Jiadi.
Ranked second to Wan Jianyi in terms of weightlifting and foot shooting performance.
Very young, only twenty-six years old.
And this man’s identity is not to be underestimated.
A nephew from a distant relative of the chief examiner Wang Hong.
Noticing Jiang Ning’s gaze, Wang Jiadi also looked over, displaying a friendly smile.
"Lord Jiang, looking forward to facing you later!" Wang Jiadi said.
Jiang Ning smiled, "I too want to witness the Four Imperial Heavenly Boxing of King."
Boom boom boom!!
The sound of fist power booming on the training ground instantly attracted both their attention.
Xie Fei split into three, transforming into three figures that punched together.
Countless fist shadows instantly enveloped Mingxin.
Meanwhile, Mingxin closed his eyes, with both hands clasped in prayer, and a faint protective golden light appeared around him.
The fist shadows landing on the protective golden light only caused it to flicker with light.
"Such exquisite control!!" Witnessing this scene, Jiang Ning instantly recognized the gap between himself and Mingxin.
Although he was far ahead of Mingxin in tiers when it came to the Vajra Immortal Body.
However, in terms of utilization, he was far inferior to Mingxin.
The protective golden light around Mingxin precisely lit up each time where the fist shadow fell.
Such a method has reached extremely high efficiency and energy conservation on his part.
Compared to his technique, it’s far superior.
"But I have that capability!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Ning’s mouth curled into a smile.
Seeing this, he understood that the battle between Master Mingxin and Xie Fei lacked suspense.
Mingxin, relying only on defense, could easily resist Xie Fei’s attacks.
Their strengths were not on the same level.
A moment later.
Xie Fei suddenly stopped, and the three figures merged into one.
"Master Mingxin, I would like to witness your striking style." Upon hearing, Mingxin opened his eyes.
He nodded towards Xie Fei, "Alright!"
As the words fell.
He suddenly stepped forward.
In an instant.
He vanished from everyone’s sight.
When his figure appeared again, he was already three feet in front of Xie Fei.
"Shrinking Ground to Inches?!" Jiang Ning’s eyes slightly narrowed, his mind contemplating.
"No, it should be one of the Six Supernatural Powers of Buddhism, Divine Foot Power."
At this moment.
Mingxin slowly reached out his right palm.
Though seemingly slow in speed, Xie Fei realized he couldn’t react at all, only watching as Mingxin’s raised palm slowly imprinted onto his chest.
I’m doomed!
His heart was filled with despair.
In an instant.
He felt a surging yet gentle force fall onto his chest.
Facing this force, he was instantly sent flying backward.
His body, powerless to resist, flew backward.
He flew over a hundred feet, gently crashing against the barrier formed by the grand formation before slowly landing on the ground.
Xie Fei held his chest, eyes full of shock.
Because he discovered that he hadn’t suffered any injuries, not even basic pain.
In the next moment.
He respectfully cupped his hands towards Mingxin, "Thank you, Master, for showing mercy."
At this moment, he fully understood the immense gap between himself and Mingxin.
Though both were rated in Class A for weightlifting and foot shooting, though both were martial scholars, their abilities were on entirely different levels.
"Benefactor Xie, thank you for letting me win!" Mingxin raised his single hand vertically, elbow bent, arm straight, fingers naturally aligned, thumb tucked in, body slightly forward.
...
On the northern high platform.
The Third Prince couldn’t help but nod slightly, "Master Mingxin truly deserves to be called the Buddha’s son; at this age, his application of strength has reached a level of extreme subtlety!"
"He truly is formidable!" General Shen with the full beard beside him also nodded in approval, then added, "Ordinary Grandmasters, even after immersing in study for thirty to fifty years, cannot match him in strength application."
...
In the training ground.
Wang Hong’s voice sounded again.
"Will the new martial scholar with match card number three come forward."
Upon hearing this sentence, Wan Jianyi swept his eyes over and, seeing the movements of the other three, knew who his opponent was.
It was Xu Sansheng, ranked second to last with a Class A rating.
At that moment, Xu Sansheng’s gaze also fell on Wan Jianyi.
They had already realized what kind of rule Wang Hong followed as the chief examiner in arranging the match.
This year’s ratings in Class A included seven people, with two engaging in battle, resulting in one person having a bye.
Apparently, Wang Hong arranged Jiang Ning to have a bye.
While they arranged battles according to the ranking’s head and tail pairing.
They could see this clearly during Mingxin’s battle with Xie Fei.
"Later, I kindly ask Brother Wan to show mercy!" Xu Sansheng cupped his hands towards Wan Jianyi, speaking politely.
"Not being serious towards an opponent is not being serious towards oneself, and is disrespectful to Martial Arts!" Wan Jianyi replied.
