Holy Fist!-Chapter 635 - 317 Innate Horizontal Training Holy Body_2

Gained a lot!

Bai Xiao’s breathing gradually calmed down, and his gaze once again shifted downwards.

[Task: Bounty (Accumulated Experience: 905)]

He took a deep breath, his eyes narrowing.

"Dark Red!"

Without hesitation, Bai Xiao activated his innate ability. A red glow, like the evening glow, enveloped his personal panel at an astonishing speed. The power of the modifier descended instantly, causing the entire status bar to twist slightly.

"Extract!"

A command was given.

The Dark Red Modifier quickly activated, flashing once.

A mysterious wave descended, and the personal panel became misty, with the black numbers inside rapidly decreasing, almost to single digits.

After two or three breaths.

The red glow faded, and everything became clear again.

[Task: Bounty (Accumulated Experience: 5)]

[Dark Red Modifier]

[Potential Points: 18]

At this moment, Bai Xiao felt confident again.

He still had several Secret Martial techniques that he had yet to begin cultivating deeply.

"Jade Bone Skill requires Grandmaster-level enhancement to transform."

"Then, I can get a truly top-notch First-rank Hard Skill!"

Thoughts floated through Bai Xiao’s mind, and he was already a bit impatient.

...

Time passed bit by bit as battles continued on the arena.

Experts from different Secret Martial worlds within the Tianxia Federation fought each other, indeed bringing different Martial Arts concepts into collision. Though the styles of each sect varied greatly, with significant differences, the distinctive regional characteristics could still be felt. It was an overall style, unrelated to the fist techniques themselves.

As the first round of the national tournament took place, dozens of battles continued from morning until afternoon. Numerous spectators witnessed many confrontations between Extreme Realm experts, where powerful fist techniques entangled. During the viewing, it was evident that some participants stood out like cranes among chickens.

Their performances in certain aspects were overwhelmingly dominant.

Not only against their opponents in the ring.

But also in comparison to all the other participants, they were distinct.

Enthusiastic observers recorded and summarized by the end of the afternoon.

Totaling four aspects, four individuals.

First, speed.

Undoubtedly, Gu Yun of the Beiming Four Extremes, known as Aurora.

His Qinggong skills were ghostly and unpredictable, startling the people. His speed was so fast that he could toy with his opponents, frequently appearing beside them without attacking, making them as jittery as a startled bird. According to experts from the Northern Secret Martial World, at the previous Dark World Fighting Competition in the North, Gu Yun’s favorite act was to suddenly appear behind his ring opponents and tap their shoulders.

Then maliciously whisper in their ear: "I’m right behind you."

Although it was extremely mischievous, it still showed from a different perspective that his Qinggong was unparalleled among the younger generation, likely unmatched in the entire national tournament!

Next, physique.

Needless to say, it had to be Bai Xiao.

The gold content of hard tanking Xia Hao’s three Absolute Kills of Lan Sand Fist was indisputable.

Even his opponents admitted that, among the younger generation, his physique reigned supreme!

Third, strength.

Similarly, one of the Beiming Four Extremes, Shi Chen known as Dragon Lizard.

In his battles with opponents, he exhibited overwhelming strength, terrifying like a bulldozer. His punches were like tanks, each strike producing a dull sound, directly treating another participant as a sandbag, wildly pounding for half a minute. Forcing the opponent out of the Extreme Realm by sheer force.

At this stage, Shi Chen of the Dragon Lizard undoubtedly displayed the greatest strength.

Finally, spirit, without a doubt, was Canaan of Free Heaven.

Buddha and demon in one, enchanting all beings.

The danger level of this person even surpassed that of the Evil Ghost Face!

These four individuals were summarized by the spectators as the present kings of four aspects. People always liked to compare several experts side by side, ingraining it into their minds.

But in reality, besides Bai Xiao and the other three, there were many other outstanding experts. Their strength was also unfathomable and not to be underestimated.

For example, those who broke through to the Sect Leader Realm.

Wind of Breath, Liu Xinzong.

Evil Ghost Face, Ghost Mask.

Champion of the Eastern Secret Martial World Dark World Fighting Competition, Evil Flame Canghai.

One of the Beiming Four Extremes, Hundred-Split Fist Yu Ming.

Some of them did not have eye-catching performances only because their opponents were too weak, resulting in overly plain victories.

Of course.

There was also one person who defeated his opponent ordinary.

But was still in everyone’s mind.

Champion of the Northern Dark World Fighting Competition, Candle Sect’s Wu Ming.

Everyone called him Candle Sect, but no one knew his real name. This person had no sect, emerging out of nowhere, defeating enemies single-handedly. From the end of the 14th Dark World Fighting Competition to the result announcement of the 15th, the name Candle Sect was deeply engraved in the minds of the younger generation, as though it was a nearly invincible name.

If, at this moment, all spectators in the Martial Arts Arena were to vote for the strongest, or who was most likely to win the current Fighting Competition.

At least half of them would think it was Candle Sect.

The national tournament gathered participants from all over, with various talents and prodigies converging in the Imperial Capital. Even Bai Xiao faintly felt a bit of pressure. He instantly decided to start adding points as soon as he returned to his accommodation.

To utilize every resource to its fullest.

This way, he wouldn’t waste his almost cheat-like talent!

...

At five o’clock in the afternoon.

The day is coming to an end, and the sun sets westward. The evening glow sweeps across the sky, brilliant like a raging fire. In the distance, under the golden-red sky, thick clouds pile up, creating a spectacular scene beyond an oil painting.

The first day’s events concluded.

Various sects left the World Martial Arts Arena, returning to their apartment areas.

Of course, not everyone stayed in the same apartment building but rather a large group of apartments. A building might house several sects.

The Fierce Bird Sect stayed in Building One.

Bai Xiao’s bedroom was the leftmost room on the fifth floor.

He sat by the window with the curtains open, assuming a kneeling meditation posture, gradually calming his breathing, and his heartbeat slowly steadied.

The sunlight slanted on half of his deep face, like an Ancient Greek statue.

And placed in front of Bai Xiao were two Secret Manuals.

"Silver Marrow Technique" and "Golden Muscle Body"

Although both of these Horizontal Training techniques were just unranked basic, their nature was quite compatible with the Jade Bone Skill. If combined, they might produce fantastic effects.

Swoosh.

Bai Xiao opened his eyes, glancing at the fiery red sky outside the window.

"Let’s begin."

With a thought, he entered the Pure Heart State.

A cold glint flashed in Bai Xiao’s eyes, and he began to quickly and meticulously read through the two Hard Skill Secret Manuals. Due to his astonishing talent, coupled with the enhanced understanding from the Pure Heart State, everything was rapidly processed. In just a few minutes, Bai Xiao closed the two manuals.

He stared straight ahead, black information appearing on his retina.

[Skill: Silver Marrow Technique Introduction (1/200)]+

The dark red plus sign in the back caught all his attention.

"Dark Red, add points."

He lightly murmured in his heart.

Instantly, a mysterious power descended, enveloping the entire status bar. Without any hesitation, Bai Xiao decided to add as many points as he could. Thus, the Potential Points in the Dark Red Modifier plunged while the experience of Silver Marrow Technique skyrocketed, transforming several times in an instant.

He could feel his body changing quickly.

Although it wasn’t much for Bai Xiao at this point.

But, it was still an enhancement he could feel.

A red glint flashed, and a large amount of information scrolled down.

[Your profession "Secret Martial Arts Expert", experience +135!]

[Your skill "Silver Marrow Technique Introduction", experience +900!]

[Skill "Silver Marrow Technique Introduction" upgraded to "Silver Marrow Technique Third Layer"]

Breaking through three levels, Bai Xiao instantly elevated this unranked Hard Skill to its original limit. But with the enhancement from Copper Wall Iron Curtain, it could go beyond its limit, excelling even more.

[Skill: Silver Marrow Technique Third Layer (1/600)]
