C20 Strength
Sunn Ling's eyes bulged in shock. He had never expected Lo Tianqi's physique to be so resilient; he knew all too well the strength of his own flesh.
With that punch, even he would have struggled to endure, yet there he was, unscathed. Instead, he found himself repelled four steps by Lo Tianqi, which naturally left him seething with anger.
"Sunn Ling, you're pretty good! But this time, I'm going all out!" Lo Tianqi declared, his gaze icy as his expression grew stern. He sensed the powerful aura emanating from Sunn Ling, now even more potent than before.
He couldn't afford to take any chances, acutely aware of the terrifying oppressive force radiating from Sunn Ling.
"Hehe, you do have some skill, I'll give you that. But to me, you're still nothing but trash!" Sunn Ling sneered, his eyes dripping with contempt as he gave Lo Tianqi a dismissive once-over.
His voice dripped with arrogance. To him, a martial artist weaker than himself wasn't even worth considering.
"Trash? That's bold talk. You think you can beat me with those petty tricks? You're delusional. Today, I'm going to show you what real power looks like!" Lo Tianqi's expression darkened, his eyes sparking with intensity as he charged at Sunn Ling once more, his aura surging like a torrential flood.
"Bring it on. I'm curious to see the full extent of your so-called real strength!" Sunn Ling's eyes gleamed, a cold smirk playing on his lips. His fists flew forward in rapid succession, unleashing two Fist Forces, one to the left and one to the right, barreling towards Lo Tianqi with overwhelming ferocity.
"Shatter!" Lo Tianqi bellowed, thrusting his palms forward. His fists, like rampaging dragons, carried the might to obliterate all in their path as they slammed into the oncoming Fist Forces.
The collision of their formidable Fist Forces produced a thunderous boom, sending waves of terrifying energy rippling outwards like a tsunami, forcing the onlookers to stagger back several meters.
Both Lo Tianqi and Sunn Ling were pushed three steps back. Sunn Ling steadied himself and fixed Lo Tianqi with a cold stare. "Well? Now do you see the gap between our strengths?"
Lo Tianqi gave him a cold glance and remarked, "I seem to have underestimated you. You're indeed more complex than I thought!"
"Haha! Naturally, Lo Tianqi, you're quite impressive yourself, managing to withstand my physical defenses! But today, I'll show you what real strength is!"
Sunn Ling burst into laughter, swinging his fists with such force that they whipped up a fierce gale, hurtling towards Lo Tianqi with a momentum that promised destruction.
"Not bad, you're quite formidable, but my own physical strength is nothing to scoff at!"
Lo Tianqi snorted, his skin bulging as golden light radiated from him like flames.
Golden ripples danced across his skin, exuding a rich energy that resembled a blazing golden inferno within him, churning and sending out intense energy fluctuations that made one's spirit quiver.
"Humph!" Sunn Ling bellowed, his aura intensifying dramatically. A wild presence emanated from him as he barreled towards Lo Tianqi like a tempest.
A wild aura filled with destructive power surged from Sunn Ling, his Fist Technique fierce and commanding. Each strike carried an unmatched domineering presence that instilled fear.
"Such tremendous power!"
Lo Tianqi's face fell as he quickly sidestepped, countering with his most potent attack as his aura surged in response.
The Fist Force from both Sunn Ling and Lo Tianqi clashed violently, emitting a thunderous roar as the space around them shook and the air twisted and warped.
Sunn Ling was sent hurtling through the air, tracing a perfect parabola before crashing down hard outside the ring.
Lo Tianqi staggered back a step but used his formidable physique to dissipate most of the impact. So while Sunn Ling was injured, it was merely a minor wound.
Lo Tianqi didn't have it as easy as Sunn Ling, though. He continued to retreat until he finally came to a stop, while Sunn Ling was still being pushed back, eventually coming to rest at the edge of the ring.
"Humph! Lo Tianqi, is that all the strength you have? You still think you can defeat me? It's as if your head's been kicked by a donkey!"
Sunn Ling snorted with contempt and stood his ground, his face etched with mockery as he coldly regarded Lo Tianqi and sneered.
"You're asking for it!"
Lo Tianqi retorted with a cold snort, his face contorting with displeasure. A towering Battle Intent erupted from within him, his eyes gleaming with an icy light as he fixed a deadly stare on Sunn Ling, a hint of menace flickering in his gaze.
His fists clenched, bones cracking audibly, his eyes sharp and predatory as he glared at Sunn Ling.
"What do you think you're doing, Lo Tianqi? I'm warning you, my master is a member of the Sunn Family. I suggest you come to your senses and leave quickly, or don't blame me for not being polite!"
Sunn Ling's cold voice boomed as he stared down Lo Tianqi.
"Humph! I'm well aware of your connections, but trying to intimidate me is futile. Today, I, Lo Tianqi, will not hold back in teaching you a lesson!"
Lo Tianqi snorted disdainfully, his voice icy as a brilliant golden radiance burst forth from his body, enveloping Sunn Ling. A chilling intent to kill flashed in his eyes.
He hadn't anticipated that he would be at a disadvantage against Sunn Ling, forced to resort to his own creation, the fifth move of the Golden Crow Nine Moves, the Golden Crow Raging Sun. His power soared to its zenith.
With the unleashing of the Golden Crow Raging Sun, his body blazed with towering golden flames, his clothes enshrouded by the fiery glow, his aura intensifying to an extreme, as if he embodied the sun itself. Above him, a blinding sun hung in the air, radiating an infinite golden brilliance that was almost blinding.
Sunn Ling's pupils contracted, his expression altering as he sensed the formidable Energy Fluctuation emanating from Lo Tianqi, his spirit quaking. In that moment, he felt an overwhelming pressure—the very essence of Lo Tianqi's released aura.
"Lo Tianqi's technique is incredibly powerful!"
"Indeed, this Fist Technique is the Lo Family's most prized secret. Mastering it grants unmatched destructive force, a renowned power in this world. I never imagined Lo Tianqi's strength to be so formidable."
The onlookers couldn't help but engage in hushed conversations, expressing their sympathy for Sunn Ling. They hadn't anticipated that Sunn Ling would face such a formidable adversary as Lo Tianqi today. It was truly regrettable.
In the entirety of Azure Yang City, Sunn Ling's potential marked him as a top-tier prodigy. However, in the face of Lo Tianqi, he seemed somewhat out of his depth.
"Sunn Ling, I acknowledge your strength. You're certainly a master of the Mystic Spirit Realm. But your power is mere dust in my eyes. Today, I will grind you to dust!" Lo Tianqi declared, a chilling glint in his eye, emphasizing each word.
Upon hearing Lo Tianqi's murderous declaration, a flicker of scorn crossed Sunn Ling's face. He stared back at Lo Tianqi with icy contempt. "Your arrogance knows no bounds. Well then, I'll be the one to end your journey!"
With a cold cry, Sunn Ling's figure blurred, transforming into a streak of golden light as he lunged towards Lo Tianqi.
"Hmph, you're in over your head!"
