Chapter 021 – Underestimating Shen Yuan

In truth, all Crystal Sky Academy students were extremely wealthy.
He had three bright Spirit Cards, and all of them were Silver Grade Cards. Rank two light body arts [Aerial Wood Stake], rank three light body arts [Eight Steps Overtaking Cicada], rank three finger arts [Iron Clay Finger].
Two light body arts Spirit Cards, seemed like they quenched Tang Tian’s fire for spoils. He was currently lacking in light body arts Spirit Cards, and did not expect them to be served up to him by someone. Tang Tian felt that Yang Yong who was fainted on the floor, was extremely pleasing to look at.
[Iron Clay Finger] was a gold element finger technique which Tang Tian could not learn. But luckily, gold element finger techniques were popular, and Tang Tian could just exchange it for a Spirit Card he could utilise.
Such a good man!
Tang Tian heart and mind were filled with gratitude.
As he turned to look at Shen Yuan, his eyes immediately blazed up, because Shen Yuan was brandishing an astonishing level of strength. But very quickly, he calmed himself down.
It was the first time Tang Tian saw Ah Mo Li being pressured by somebody.
Shen Yuan was worthy of being called ‘Iron Palm Shen’. Although his palm arts seemed ordinary and mediocre, every palm of his was firm and robust. Ah Mo Li was naturally gifted, with his humongous wooden blade being exceptionally heavy, while using his True Power to move, he seemed like he had immerse strength. Tang Tian admitted he was not their equal. Yet even with the strength of Mt. Tai in every blade movement, they were all firmly blocked by the pair of black iron palms.
Shen Yuan’s True Power was spread through his entire body, with his feet looking as if they were moving in slow motion, but actually weighing thirty thousand cattles, with every step leaving a clear deep footprint in the ground. He moved closer towards Ah Mo Li one step at a time, with both of his jet black palms releasing a gloomy sound.
So powerful!
Tang Tian watched them blankly. Shen Yuan actually gave him a feeling that he was unable to block him at all. Ah Mo Li’s blade movements began to be somewhat chaotic, while Shen Yuan’s iron palms were plain and simple, yet possessed surprising might, with every palm released covering a range of 10 feet.
Shen Yuan ignored Ah Mo Li’s changes in blade movements, one palm after another, Ah Mo Li’s blade power was slowly unable to block his palm power.
Tang Tian saw through him, Shen Yuan’s iron palms attainments were indeed astonishing, but the real reason that Ah Mo Li was being pressured to where he was, was actually because of Shen Yuan’s vigorous and exceptional True Power.
Tang Tian, who had just completed cultivating the Crane Body, had his pride crushed watching the scene unfold.
If Shen Yuan was not training a unique mental cultivation technique, it meant that he was at the fourth level of True Power!
Ah Mo Li’s True Power was similarly not weak at the third level. For his age, it was not an easy feat. Tang Tian’s True Power was even weaker, as he just entered the early stage third level of True Power. Although he cultivated the Crane Body, and his True Power would momentarily release a burst of formidable power, allowing him to release strength equivalent to someone at the middle stage third level of True Power. However, apart from that, when compared to a middle stage third level of True Power, he was still inferior.
A late stage third level Ah Mo Li, was totally pressed down by Shen Yuan. His own miserable amount of True Power, would only be swept aside by the wind aroused from Shen Yuan’s palms.
Crystal Sky Academy was definitely hiding talented individuals. (TN: crouching tiger, hidden dragons)
Shen Yuan was not arrogant about himself, but his True Power was already at a frightening level.
Once Tang Tian saw that Ah Mo Li’s blade movements were in a disorder, he became anxious. If Ah Mo Li was defeated, his just gotten spoils of war would be taken back, and Shen Yuan would not let them off.
Clenching his teeth, Tang Tian furiously stomped his foot, and propelled his entire body forward like a cheetah.
Flash Fist!
Shen Yuan saw Tang Tian rushing towards him, his heart trembled. But as Tang Tian released his Flash Fist towards him, he could not help but smirk.
A rank two martial art, in his eyes, was simply useless.
With just this amount of talent, they were challenging Crystal Sky?
After today, you both will know, your thoughts and wishes are jokes!
Shen Yuan’s eyes fuelled with anger, and his entire body released all his True Power. All his hair stood, and his palm motions became even heavier, and at the same time the air around him became viscous.
Tang Tian was like a small housefly which had fallen into a swamp, where even the wings cannot move. His Flash Fist did not even go near Shen Yuan, and his entire body was flung away in an awkward position by the gusts formed from the two iron palms.
The Flash Fist was broken before it even managed to attack.
In a blink of an eye, both of them were in imminent danger.

Ah Mo Li persistently blocked the power of Shen Yuan’s Iron Palms, which seemed to be everywhere. No matter how much he changed his blade movements, it was useless. The powerful [Groundbreaking Chop] that he thought was powerful and fierce, was utterly useless in the fight.
In the eyes of the experts of Crystal Sky, Shen Yuan was nothing much, where he remained low profile. But Ah Mo Li could never imagine that, Shen Yuan’s power was actually so formidable to this extent!
As he saw Fundamental Tang joining in the battle, Ah Mo Li bit his lips painfully.
Just with Fundamental Tang’s power to enter the battle, it was practically the same as courting death.
Bastard!
Ah Mo Li did not know why, his heart and mind bore an anger, yes, wrath! The anger at himself for actually being so weak, the anger that his power was actually so weak and low, angry at himself for being scared!
His anger erupted like lava flowing out of a volcano, and his body started trembling
Similarly, there was a sound resounding in his mind.
Such a disgrace!
Ah Mo Li!
You are a determined man who is going to create his own Martial Dao!
How can you be so useless! How dare you be a coward?
How can you!
What about your dreams? What about the oath you swore?
You don’t even have to courage to struggle, Ah Mo Li, you’re such a coward!
You are just a coward….
“….You fall short when comparing with his ferociousness…”
Old Fart Wei’s words, suddenly appeared in Ah Mo Li.
