Tang Tian expression was solemn, with one fist, he crushed the stone in front of him.
Peng!
The stone trembled, collapsing into countless small stone grains, and every grain was uniformly the size of a chinese chestnut. They were unlike the other unequal small stones formed by his previous Minute Collapsing Fist, all these small rocks were smooth, like they were cut by a blade.
“So powerful! We really cannot tell! This small one is a genius!”
“To be able to endure hardships, that is the true genius!”
“Old Fart Wei has picked up a big treasure this time!”
……
The surrounding miners, all exclaimed in surprise. Although Tang Tian could use one punch to collapse the stone, it was only as big as a fist, that was because his True Power was still too weak.
Having enlightenments on Minute Collapsing Fist, Tang Tian had already reached a relatively skillful position.
“Not bad!” Stone Head smiled, and said to Tang Tian: “Although Minute Collapsing Fist is only a rank three martial art, its power is relatively strong. And you will find out later, that many martial techniques requires the use of the power of collapsing, provided that you can completely absorb the power of collapsing, all the higher rank martial arts in the future will be easily picked up by you. Observe!”
He walked to a humongous granite the height of two people stacked on top of each other.
In a horse stance, keeping his fist at waist level, Stone Head had a solemn expression.
He exhaled loudly, used his right fist to explode out once!
Pu!
Against Tang Tian’s expectations as he watched the ferocious punch, the explosion sound on the granite was actually the only thing that happened.
The huge rock did not move an inch.
This was…
Tang Tian was puzzled and had some doubts.
Suddenly, a surprising thing happened. They saw the two-people tall granite suddenly collapse into countless small fragment grains and like an avalanche, collapsed and grumbled with a loud bang, causing the dust to fly upwards.
A nearby muscular man used one palm and produced a gust that blew all the dust away.
A small mountain of broken crushed stones emerged in front of Tang Tian.
Tang Tian stared blankly at the pile of stones, his heart was in an indescribable shock, if this punch landed on someone’s body, that would be so terrifying!
Stone Head was afraid Tang Tian would receive a shock, and consoled him: “I have been practising the power of collapsing for over ten years, as long as you continue to carve and polish yourself, your future accomplishments will surpass me.”
Tang Tian excitedly jumped to Big Bro Stone Head’s side, with a face full of high esteem towards him, twinkles in his eyes: “Big Bro Stone Head, teach me, teach me!”
Stone Head cried in laughter: “I’m a fool with words, and can’t explain properly. If you stay here for ten years and collapse stones every day, you will definitely become stronger than me.”
Tang Tian shook his head: “No can do, I have to go and find Qian Hui.”
But shortly after, he made a fist in respect and spoke seriously: “Big Bro Stone Head, you can relax, I will definitely surpass you!”
Tang Tian’s appearance made everyone around him break out in laughter.
Yet Stone Head did not laugh, and using his palm leaf sized hands, he rubbed Tang Tian’s head and replied seriously: “En. I believe you!”
All of the laughter came to an end abruptly, as they were shocked by Stone Head’s actions.
Stone Head gave no explanation, but warmly laughed, and encouragingly said: “All the best, godlike young man!”
Tang Tian raised both of his hands high up, and celebrated: “‘Wawuuu!’, godlike young man, go go go!”

Ah Mo Li held onto the huge metal blade that was faintly glowing with a blade aura, all the muscles in his body tensing with energy, and a glow in his eyes.
He raised the blade up, a mud-yellow colored blade aura, flickered out.
The blade cut into the stone material.
The blade went up and down, and the mud-yellow blade aura once again flickered.
Ah Mo Li was fully concentrated, with the big iron blade in his hands, with a sense of firmness. A few consecutive cuts, and a perfect square stone cube appeared in front of everybody.
“En, qualified.” Stone Head inspected the stone cube, with a satisfied expression on his face.
“Long live!” Tang Tian jumped up with both his hands in the air, celebrating.
(TN: It is usually said to emperors like long live the majesty!)
Ah Mo Li had a silly smile on his face, he had gone through quite a bit of hardships the past few days, an iron blade cutting a stone cube looks easy, but on the contrary, was not simple at all. The quarry sought for stone cubes with high expectations, so the bladesmanship required was high in demand.
In the beginning, Ah Mo Li was not used to it. He was usually just training his blade arts, how would it become so fine, so meticulous? Adding on the fact that the granite was naturally extremely hard, and that the blade required a high concentration of True Power before being able cut out the stone cube. It required a high degree of fine control over True Power, to an extent that it would astound people.
With this kind of training, he could clearly feel the difference, as his own blade arts had an obvious improvement.
The muscular men of the quarry, treated the two young brats with a lot of fondness, with everyone applauding and a few people whistling.
Old Fart Wei appeared from nowhere.
“Yo, young men, it looks like you guys have done quite well.”
Old Fart Wei was brimming with happiness, while the others greeted him one by one.
Stone Head turned to Old Fart Wei and said: “Although they are still lacking a bit of growth, it’s still considered a pass. These two brats are good and able to endure hardships, Old Fart Wei, you have found some treasures!”
Old Fart Wei’s wrinkles smoothed out, and he proudly said: “They are going to cry. Let’s go, young men, your special training from here is done.”
Special training from here….
Tang Tian and Ah Mo Li looked at each other in dismay, could it be that there were other special trainings?
