I Can See Your Combat Power-Chapter 715: 9: The Advancing Fang Xiong

Chapter 715 -9: The Advancing Fang Xiong

Not only was it Jin San Zhua, but in the twelve Star Palaces of the three cities, the same scene kept unfolding. On one side were martial artists who thought they could advance at leisure, viewing Star Generals as a motley crowd, and on the other side were the emerging talents who had significantly improved their powers through two years of grueling training. Not to mention that the initial Marshal Stars were all personally selected by Tang Luo for their martial arts style. Regardless their Spiritual Power skills, their combat capabilities alone were incredibly strong, even the weakest Marshal Star from Ximu Palace would compare to the average nobility prodigy. Their strength was not something that average martial artists could easily surpass.

The young martial artists with the power to break through the twelve palaces were all self-important and would never take up the challenge on the first day the palace opened. Not to mention the top-notch families in the alliance, even the average families would first gauge the strength of the Star Palaces in the three cities and then decide where to send their clan members to challenge.

Only fearless commoners who had nothing to lose would boldly advance. The noble families had always excelled at making a careful plan before taking any action.

Exactly for this reason, the challenges in the twelve palaces on the first day were dull and uninteresting. Not a single martial artist capable of breaking through the first palace appeared in the competition ring in Lanshan City, causing Tang Luo to shake his head continually.

Cui Dayou, who had always focused his attention on the Clan Head, saw Tang Luo’s look of displeasure and hurriedly asked in a respectful tone, “Are you dissatisfied with the performance of the Star Generals of Lanshan City, Clan Head?”

“No, I’m very satisfied with the performance of the Star Generals of Ximu Palace.” Tang Luo shook his head and pointed at the challenger on the competition ring who was defeated by Jin San Zhua again. “I’m just wondering why these martial artists from noble families still appear so weak even after they’ve been fortified by the secret methods disclosed by Tang Mi. It seems it’s not a good thing that the new alliance has no rivals in Longzhou West. The performance of these martial artists is a bit disappointing. Let’s go to Qutang City and have a look.”

Compared to the progress of the challenge match, Tang Luo was more concerned about the martial arts cultivation of the members of the Marshal Star Pavilion. After all, these were all hidden talents he had gathered from the common folk. Each one of them had potential to be referred to as a prodigy or genius.

Thinking about leading such a group of martial artists into battle hundreds of years later, it didn’t seem that sacred sects were that terrifying after all.

…

The challenges in the twelve palaces were in full swing, but even after ten consecutive days, no one had successfully passed through the twelve palaces. The best performer had only reached the ninth palace – the Palace of Jianlou – before he had to stop. As we approached the end of July, those noble families who had been planning their moves finally couldn’t sit still.

The experts in the three cities emerged like a gushing wellspring, and youth masters who could reach the Ninth and Tenth Palace began to appear one after another, but still, no one had successfully passed through the Twelve Palace.

Until the 28th of July, when Li Xuanba from Fuling City advanced all the way to the competition ring in Lanshan City and successively broke through eleven palaces, confronting the Master of the Star Palace, a man who looked like a bear. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

As the chief defender of Lanshan City, Fang Xiong had been suffocating these days while stationed at the Star Palace. He was desperately looking for a worthy opponent. Like a gust of wind, this muscular warrior who resembled a bear had swiftly approached Li Xuanba, who had activated his Xuanhuang Body, as lightly as a willow fluff.

A muscular warrior as light as willow fluff!?

“Damn it, it’s a Wind Spirit Body!” A sharp-eyed spectator who had seen through the situation cursed in a loud voice, pointing at the Master of the Star Palace and explaining to the crowd: “This is the high-level bloodline ability – Wind Spirit Body. Martial artists who awaken this bloodline skill not only find their Fire and Wind techniques twice as effective, but the power is also impressive. When the bloodline power is cultivated to a profound level, it can harness the Wind Spirit Power between heaven and earth, forming wind barriers to block enemies or turning into wind surges to aid themselves. The variations are endless. Mr. Li is in danger!”

Li Xuanba in the competition ring was also aware of the horror of this Wind Spirit Body. Being a martial artist with inborn super strength, his every move contained a massive power capable of splitting gold and smashing rocks. However, several times his punches, which had already hit the opponent, were strangely guided away by wind pressure. It seemed as if the entire space was against him. His opponent’s punch came, he tried to dodge, but was pushed forward by the wind surge and had to take it head on. Even his punch, which had not yet touched his opponent’s body, seemed to have created a fierce gust of wind that blew his opponent away. His clearly targeted Spirit Art had lost its trajectory under the influence of the wind barrier. This situation had put Li Xuanba, who had never been defeated since his debut with the small success of Xuanhuang Body, at a disadvantage under the suppression of the chief defender of Star Palace.

Although the scene was one-sided, Fang Xiong was aware of his predicament. He had learned from books that while they all possessed inborn super strength, there were different degrees to it. But he hadn’t expected this degree of difference to be so significant.

Possibly because Fang Xiong came from a poor background and was malnourished as a child, he hadn’t been able to develop his inborn super strength to the extreme. Facing Li Xuanba’s attack, he dare not resist directly with his physical body and could only use his bloodline ability to deal with the backlash. However, his opponent’s Xuanhuang Body was too tough, and his attack was like tickling the opponent. Although he seemed to be leading, he did not cause any substantial damage to Li Xuanba.

The most powerful attack Fang Xiong now had mastered was the unique printing method of the Tang Clan. But the combination of the three prints could not harm Li Xuanba’s Xuanhuang Body. He didn’t have sufficient Spiritual Power to execute the multiplication of three prints. Therefore, he intended to try that combination of Spiritual Light which had briefly flashed by but he hadn’t had a chance to research.

Rather than waiting for death after exhausting all his strength, he figured it would be better to make a desperate attempt while he still had energy. After all, he was the chief defender entrusted with the hopes of the other brothers from the twelve palaces!

A gust of wind whisked him back several feet. Fang Xiong, who had secured a distance, held his breath and focused. Both his hands swung simultaneously, using the unique printing method of the Tang Clan.

The Fire Print multiplied by three manifested as a flame, the Wind Print multiplied by three manifested as a gale!

Feeling the violent Spiritual Power fluctuations of his opponent, Li Xuanba twisted his neck and said coldly, “You’ve been hitting for so long, it’s finally my turn.”

With his Xuanhuang Body at the small success stage, he simply didn’t take Fang Xiong’s print method seriously, continuing to press towards him with an unruffled pace.

Fang Xiong, who was desperately maintaining the balance of Spiritual Power in both hands, had no time to respond to Li Xuanba’s provocation. He felt that the raging fire and unrestrained gale converging in his hands were becoming more and more violent. If they were hastily combined, he would likely get blasted off.

How should he merge them? As the clueless chief defender recalled Cui Dayou’s threats, Fang Xiong swallowed under his mask. For him, giving up his current position in the Marshal Star Pavilion was even more unbearable than death.

His eyes became resolute again, and Fang Xiong gritted his teeth, “To hell with it, let’s go all out!”

He induced the last power of his bloodline within him, and a gust of wind pushed his back, causing him to rapidly close in on Li Xuanba in front of him.

“Good on you!” Li Xuanba’s right fist, where the power of Xuanhuang Body was gathered, had been stored up for a long time. He had been waiting for this moment to counter Fang Xiong.

His fist landed directly on the opponent’s chest without any obstruction. Powerful momentum shattered the opponent’s rib cage, went straight through his body, and burst open his clothes and mask. The Star General of Star Palace finally revealed his true face. But having taken a punch from Young Master, aren’t you supposed to show the disappointment of a loser? Why are you laughing!?

“Boom!”

As soon as the berserk flame and the unruly gale came into contact, a massive explosion occurred. The violent explosion triggered countless gusts of wind, blasting the two people in the competition ring away.
