060 Break through the defense
060 Break through the defense
Ning Kui used his five fingers to slash five bloody wounds on Zhou Tiecang's arm, then clawed his way toward his face.
"Master, be careful!!"
Disciples from the Tiger Python Martial Arts School couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
However, once caught in a tiger's claws, it's not so easy to break free.
Zhou Tiecang gritted his teeth and endured the pain, releasing the Fierce Tiger Force and instead circulating the Mysterious Python Force.
In an instant, his iron-cast, strong and powerful body collapsed like a deflated balloon.
He shrank from a mighty, burly man into a withered old man.
Taking this opportunity, Zhou Tiecang quickly broke free from Ning Kui's grasp, his body leaning back as if boneless, his right leg whipping upwards like a python's tail, striking Ning Kui fiercely.
"Black Python Whip!"
Even the air seemed to whistle sharply; the ruthlessness and viciousness of this move sent a chill down any man's spine.
Although Ning Kui was not afraid, he did not want to be whipped in front of everyone.
He had no choice but to retract his move and was forced to retreat several feet away.
In just one round, Zhou Tiecang realized how difficult Ning Kui was to deal with.
With unparalleled defense, versatile moves, refined internal energy, and agile movements, it has virtually no weaknesses.
Ning Kui silently acknowledged Zhou Tiecang's actions, after all, this was the first time he had retreated in a battle between equals.
"Bring me my sword!"
Knowing he couldn't gain an advantage in close combat, Zhou Tiecang decisively ordered his disciples to bring over the weapons.
Ning Kui also patted the Seven Star Bag, and the Dragon Scale Halberd instantly appeared in his hand.
This unexpected turn of events drew gasps of amazement from the onlookers, who exclaimed that it was a divine feat.
Zhou Tiecang's eyes swept over the Seven Star Bag with envy. What martial artist wouldn't want a magical artifact to store their weapons?
"Master, your knife is here."
Zhou Tiecang leaped and caught the broadsword, his figure flashing several steps in quick succession, moving like a serpent, unpredictable and elusive.
"Take this!"
When he got close to Ning Kui, his withered body seemed to swell up as if inflated, and he slashed down with great force.
"Go down the mountain and slay!"
In an instant, Ning Kui seemed to see a fierce tiger leaping down from the mountain, descending with the force of a descent from the sky, its might shaking all directions.
"Well done!"
Excitement flashed in Ning Kui's eyes, and he swung his Dragon Scale Halberd diagonally upwards, creating a sharp explosion in the air.
A cloud of white mist exploded from behind the blade of the Dragon Scale Halberd.
This strike exceeded the speed of sound.
He did not unleash the [Gluttony] divine power, nor did he unleash the [Mystic Ice Domain].
Simply by using the immense force of 60,000 jin, which is at the minor stage of Bone Refining, it easily surpasses the speed of sound.
"boom!!!"
The moment the tiger-head saber clashed with the dragon-scale halberd, a tremendous explosion rang out, and wave after wave of air surged outwards. The onlookers standing in the innermost circle turned ashen-faced and couldn't help but stagger backwards.
Zhou Tiecang flew backwards back into the training ground, taking several steps back, his hand holding the knife trembling slightly.
His strength has reached 48,000 jin, which is close to the limit of 50,000 jin in the Bone Refining Realm.
But in this clash, he was willing to bet that Ning Kui's strength had definitely exceeded this so-called limit!
Zhang Qian and the other martial arts school owners also changed color. The sonic slash that unleashed a shockwave was clearly a characteristic of a Blood Refining Realm martial artist whose strength had broken through 50,000 jin.
Ning Kui is only at the minor completion of the Bone Refining Realm, yet he possesses such great strength?
In an instant, the word "prodigy" appeared in their minds, so real yet so powerless.
Chen Qi clenched his hands tightly with excitement, repeatedly shouting, "Master, keep going! Master is invincible!"
Although he didn't understand the different levels of martial arts realms, he could tell from the shocked expressions of those martial arts masters that Ning Kui was far more powerful than them.
After finishing his afternoon classes, Cao Asheng also came here to watch the battle. At this moment, he stood behind Zhang Qian and looked at Chen Qi with complicated emotions.
He didn't understand why Ning Kui had given him supernatural powers and fruits, and was willing to guide him in cultivation, but hadn't accepted him as a disciple.
"Am I inferior to this kid named Chen Qi...?"
Cao Asheng clenched his fists silently. He vaguely guessed that Ning Kui wanted him to exist as a spy, but...
"Brother Ning, I'll prove to you that I'm better than Chen Qi!"
On the stage, Zhou Tiecang's face was bitter. How could he possibly fight like this?
This is not just a difference in skills, but an absolute difference in strength.
"It seems we'll have to use the secret techniques recorded in the 'White Tiger Extreme Killing Scripture'..."
Although he was only a nominal disciple and had not learned the complete "White Tiger Extreme Killing Scripture", he had learned a few secret techniques to protect himself.
This was his biggest trump card, which he hadn't intended to reveal in a competition.
But if he were to be defeated by someone with just a few punches and kicks, it wouldn't matter what about his master's face.
In his opening remarks, he did mention his master's name.
"Sigh, I'd better not mention his name next time, Master. I'm going to embarrass you again..."
Zhou Tiecang raised his broadsword, slashed his left palm, and let the gushing blood soak the blade.
He looked at Ning Kui and said in a deep voice, "If you can withstand this next strike, I will admit defeat!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Kui's face lit up with anticipation, and he replied, "Bring it on!"
"White Tiger... Divine Fiend Technique!!!"
A deep roar emanated from Zhou Tiecang's throat, like the low howl of a tiger, spreading out infrasound waves that made one's bones tingle.
It felt as if a giant, bloodstained hand was gripping everyone's heart, making it impossible for them to even breathe.
White tiger stripes appeared beneath Zhou Tiecang's skin, and his canine teeth protruded beyond his lips, making him resemble a tiger demon.
His white hair grew rapidly, soon reaching his waist, and his muscles also grew rapidly, increasing his original height of eight feet to about ten feet.
The tiger-headed broadsword gleamed with a bloody light, emanating an aura of doom and death, as if any creature before it was doomed to perish.
"die!!!"
A rough roar rang out, and with the help of this secret technique, Zhou Tiecang's strength broke through the limit of 50,000 jin in one fell swoop, reaching 55,000 jin!
He instantly appeared in front of Ning Kui, and layers of white air waves exploded behind him.
The tiger-headed broadsword slashed down, its malevolent aura of death ignoring the dragon-scale halberd's obstruction, striking Ning Kui directly through the weapon.
The Qi and Blood Immortal Robe immediately surged, mutually consuming the aura of death.
If the Qi and blood are not dry, the defenses will not break.
Zhou Tiecang's eyes dimmed.
Or is it that the defenses can't be broken?
The next second, a muffled "plop" was heard, and a burst of blood erupted from Ning Kui's shoulder.
A streak of blood reflected in Zhou Tiecang's pupils, which made his expression invigorated again.
Even when Ning Kui's fist rapidly enlarged in front of him, he didn't care at all.
"boom!!!"
Zhou Tiecang was sent flying like a tattered sack by Ning Kui's punch, flying backwards out of the martial arts arena.
He rolled on the ground several times, spitting out blood, yet still laughing loudly: "I did it! I did it!"
The surrounding martial artists all felt a pang of sympathy; that arrogant old scoundrel actually took pride in breaking Ning Kui's defense.
Just how strong is Ning Kui?
"Master!"
Chen Qi hurriedly tried to rush into the martial arts arena, but was stopped by Ning Kui's sharp gaze.
He cupped his hands to all the spectators and said, "The Tiger Python Martial Arts School lives up to its name, combining strength and gentleness, which is truly commendable."
In addition, my Demon-Slaying Martial Arts School is about to open, and anyone with the ambition to slay evil can sign up to learn martial arts.
Goodbye!
After he finished speaking, he bowed to everyone in farewell and walked home.
Chen Qi quickly caught up: "Master, you were so impressive just now, why didn't you stay a little longer and promote our martial arts school more?"
Ning Kui reached out and flicked him on the forehead: "Nonsense, if you don't leave now, my scabs will fall off. What will happen to Zhou Tiecang and Tiger Python Martial Arts School's reputation?"
Ultimately, we're the ones who gain fame by stepping on others. Don't go too far in anything, understand?
Chen Qi then realized what was happening and secretly glanced at Ning Kui's wound. He saw that the flesh inside had already healed, and a shallow scab had peeled off. It wouldn't be long before it fell off.
"Master, you did this on purpose...."
"Good that you understand. If you dare to tell anyone, I'll reward you with a Black Python Whip."
"No... I won't say anything, okay?"
