"Amitabha Buddha, I admit defeat!"

With the chant, everyone watched in astonishment at Master Kong Wen in the center of the field, seeing his face full of helplessness. He accounted for everything, but didn’t expect Chen Jiusi to pinpoint his vital point.

Indeed, the vital point—this Golden Bell Shield, although the top defense skill in the world, claimed to be an invincible defense, would possess a vital point unless fully mastered to the Twelfth-layered Purity Realm.

During this period, some spread false information to confuse the world, saying that once the Golden Bell Shield surpassed the Sixth Layer, it would have no vital point.

This was deceitful, aiming to make opponents believe that above the Sixth Layer of Golden Bell Shield, no opportunistic moves could resolve it.

Yet, the reality is that without mastering the Golden Bell Shield to its fullest, there would be a vital point.

The vital point becomes increasingly smaller and hidden through cultivation.

Chen Jie observed Master Kong Wen closely and discovered the peculiarity: Master Kong Wen’s left hand never lifted when performing any martial arts moves.

Maintaining a natural clamped-arm posture, it was so subtle that only through Chen Jie’s precise observation could Kong Wen’s vital point be discerned, possibly at the Jiquan acupoint.

Under the armpit, but this was merely Chen Jie’s guess, so he used two palms to probe the acupoint. Although it seemed his palms didn’t harm Master Kong Wen at all, each move had a clear purpose.

To probe whether this vital point was indeed the Jiquan acupoint.

In the end, Chen Jie’s judgment proved right; it was indeed there. Using the Qiankun Technique, he transmitted Gang Qi and felt the overall Gang Qi conduction of Kong Wen, confirming the feedback was most intense at the Jiquan acupoint, indicating Kong Wen’s fatal weakness.

Thus, after delivering the second palm, Chen Jie spoke to Master Kong Wen, whose reaction confirmed Chen Jie’s thoughts about the vital point.

Yet, even if Chen Jie found Kong Wen’s vital point, attacking it wasn’t easy.

The vital point was under the armpit, and Kong Wen being a Vajra, meant if he clamped his arm tight, Chen Jie faced a flawless Kong Wen.

Plus, Chen Jie only had one last palm; if Kong Wen maintained his stance, Chen Jie wouldn’t be able to harm him, making it a difficult situation to resolve.

Even if Chen Jie pinpointed his vital point, Kong Wen could remain unchanged, guarding his vital point without flaws, despite Chen Jiusi’s myriad tricks and transformations—he would remain steadfast and secure!

Logically, Master Kong Wen shouldn’t have admitted defeat.

Nonetheless, you overlooked a point—Chen Jiusi wasn’t an ordinary person; he learned the Qiankun Great Method, especially its Heaven and Earth Transposition, which had acupoint shifting ability. He demonstrated this acupoint shifting against Zuo Buqun from Huashan.

This acupoint shifting technique could move others’ acupoints as well.

Once Chen Jie found the vital point of Master Kong Wen, he could use Heaven and Earth Transposition in the third palm to relocate the Jiquan acupoint to any position on Kong Wen’s body.

Thus, Chen Jie would definitely defeat Kong Wen in the next move.

This led to Chen Jie not delivering the third palm, instead exchanging with Master Kong Wen through discreet communication to reach this conclusion.

After understanding Chen Jie’s tactic, Master Kong Wen, weighing the odds, realized he truly had no chance of victory, thus he reluctantly surrendered.

The Qiankun Great Method completely countered his Golden Bell Shield.

Unless he reached the Twelve-layered Purity Realm or even the eleventh level, he would have strength to resist Chen Jie’s Yin Yang Power, but with only the nine layers of Golden Bell Shield, facing acupoint relocation from Heaven and Earth Transposition, he appeared helpless.

No wonder historically, few Shaolin abbots practiced Golden Bell Shield, as its strengths and weaknesses were equally apparent.

The strength is nearly invincible without encountering acupoint relocation abilities from Heaven and Earth Transposition, almost unbeatable at the same level.

The evident weakness lies in the vital point; if discovered, one might face defeat from someone weaker, leading to embarrassment.

Therefore, over a thousand years in Shaolin, there were very few abbots who cultivated the Golden Bell Shield.

"I admit defeat!"

Master Kong Wen’s surrender stunned the onlookers, all astonished at him for such obvious leniency. Those two palms hadn’t hurt Master Kong Wen at all; why surrender now in such manner? Are you joking or pulling some trick? 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Everyone watched Master Kong Wen with puzzled expressions.

In this moment, from Shaolin’s Arhat Hall, Master Kong Xiang looked at Kong Wen, bewildered, and said, "Brother, what nonsense are you talking?"

"You were about to win, why surrender?"

Master Kong Xiang looked confused, as did the surrounding crowd, whether it was Emei’s Master Jue Mie or Kunlun’s Chang Xuzi—all were amazed. Why did Kong Wen suddenly acknowledge defeat? Did his family face threats to coerce him?
