22 Wrapped Around His Fingers (2/2)

Swoosh!

Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew toward it, and it instinctively kicked out.

Feng Lin dodged nimbly and kicked on its upper thigh, shifting its upward force even further.

With its kick missing its target and Feng Lin's timely 'assist', the silicon giant was now unable to hold its balance due to its weight and great inertia. It dropped down heavily, slamming on the ground.

It was super effective!

After two consecutive effective attempts, everybody knew that this wasn't just luck in play.

Feng Lin was extremely certain that he had found the way to restrain his opponent and to win.

He changed his method and for the first time, gave up on fighting forcibly head-on and started to perform the soft and gentle Taichi.

Of course, he wasn't really performing Taichi but just using its technique of returning the opponent's force onto themselves.

Although the silicon giant's strength was extremely great, its movements were very clumsy. It merely relied on its body's sturdiness.

Previously, Feng Lin was unable to do anything and was unable to break through its defense.

However, as long as he unleashed his speed advantage and didn't forcibly take his opponent head-on, he could place himself in an undefeatable position. Using the principles of Taichi, he derailed his opponent's strength to destroy itself.

Although its body was tough, it couldn't withstand its own punch.

This was to use one's spear to attack one's own shield!

The only thing Feng Lin needed to be wary of was its ability to control rocks.

However, this was very simple. He would just need to stick close to the silicon giant. When he was within such a close distance, the silicon giant would hit itself if it were to send the rocks crashing down.

Next, Feng Lin stuck close to the silicon giant while launching attacks consecutively.

”Damned bug!” The silicon giant bellowed out furiously as it punched out, but its force would be redirected by Feng Lin and ended up hitting itself every single time.

Towards the end, Feng Lin felt increasingly relaxed, and he even shook his head.

This battle method was so effective that even he was taken by surprise.

This method didn't require a profound technique, and any humans who knew a little of martial arts would be able to adopt it.

It was fortunate that the silicon giant didn't excel in martial arts at all. It was born with an extremely strong body and with its talent alone, it would be able to crush many ethnicities in the universe. Therefore, it was very hard for them to master or develop profound martial skills.

Martial arts were only a tool that was used to protect oneself, allowing the weak to defeat the strong.

Only humans, who were born to as a weak ethnicity, would develop profound martial arts. It was like how in the Ancient Earth Era where huge beasts could be found everywhere, only the apes started to learn how to use tools and fire. No other species did the same. This was because they were born to weaklings. If they didn't learn to use external objects, they would perish.

Dinosaurs, titanosuchus, and mammoths had all been dominators and stood at the top of the food chain. How could they possibly learn to make use of tools?

There was neither a need nor a requirement.

The same applied for martial arts.

However, such lowly means that the weak humans used to protect themselves had now become Feng Lin's greatest advantage.

Each time this silicon giant attacked, Feng Lin would use Taichi Sensitivity to detect its attack in advance and then redirect the force so that the silicon giant would hit itself.

In the end, things became increasingly easier for Feng Lin. He kept on redirecting the forces and had the silicon giant wrapped around his fingers.

When a lion lost its sharp teeth and claws, what else can it do except for acting cute?

Everyone only saw that the silicon giant—known to be vicious and cold-blooded in the universe—kept on spinning in the battlefield. It would occasionally fall down, releasing furious roars. However, not only did that not provide any deterrence, but it appeared hilarious instead.

”Damned carbon-based lifeform! What ability are you using?!” The silicon giant felt as if its body didn't belong to itself and kept on bellowing out.

At the sight of this, the principal and the head-teachers wore strange expressions. They wanted to laugh but yet wasn't able to do that.

A one-sided hotblooded battle had suddenly changed to become a hilarious scene. They were unable to accept the great change.

In the past, the only method to defeat the silicon giant was to use one's genetic ability to attack from the distance and then slowly fight it out. Other than that, there were no other ways out.

No one had been able to defeat the opponent in close combat when their vitalities were similar or even weaker.

Could it be that Feng Lin had managed to find a possibility in this impossible situation, discovering….

'a second method?'
