C22 (2/2)

After exchanging punches with Zheng Kuan, Yi Zhou had a new understanding of Qi Gathering Explosion.

It turned out that he had always thought of Qi Gathering Explosion as a method of attack. In his mind, he had always been thinking about how to activate the condensed spiritual energy and deal damage to his opponent.

Through the feel of the match, he changed his mind.

Since I am unable to release the compressed Spiritual Energy through any means, can I use the pressure created by the impact?

It should be easier than my own release. The pressure of the impact can be easily understood as multiplied, and it's always easier than being released by my own pressure alone.

With that said and done, Yi Zhou once again entered into deep meditation.

Actually, this method of meditation was the same as the inspiration that came for Yi Zhou when the chrysalis was in a cocoon. Because this was a reflection of one's own true situation, Yi Zhou called it the True Reflection Meditation Technique.

A thread of the weak Spiritual Energy slowly gathered in the He Gu acupoint on his right hand, then condensed into a ball, which was then compressed into a tiny, high-pressure energy.

Yi Zhou suddenly waved his hand, and his fist landed on one of the pillars.

At the moment of impact, the pressure in Yi Zhou's body intertwined with the rebound force of the pillar, forming a powerful force.

Out!

Yi Zhou gave the order in his mind.

A shiny crystal shot out and exploded with a ”pa” sound.

He succeeded!

Yi Zhou looked at the small crack on the pillar, and then looked at the wound on his right hand, not knowing if he should be happy or sad.

This line of thinking was correct. Using pressure, the probability of success was the greatest.

The problem now was that if the damage was guaranteed to be external, there would be as little damage to the user as possible, or the damage would be minimal, or even the ability to change protection.

Otherwise, with such a Qi Gathering Burst, it would only be a matter of one's own life or death.

Yi Zhou experimented multiple times again. He found that this type of Qi Gathering could form various parts of his body. As long as they reacted in time, they could gather into a ball and leap out of the body when they were hit.

As long as he could reduce the damage it dealt to himself, it would be an unexpected way to defend and attack.

Yi Zhou absorbed the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth again, to replenish the depletion of his Dantian.

He could feel that some of the spirit energy in his dantian had obviously dredged up the rest of the spirit veins.

Furthermore, he had also experimented before, even if he could absorb the Spiritual Stone's spirit energy, it would turn into non-elemental spirit energy in his dantian. However, the amount of spiritual energy he needed was not much, so absorbing the spiritual energy in the world was more than enough.

It was just that if he wanted to open a second spirit vein and enter the second level of Qi Condensation, that was not something he could do in a short period of time.

Yi Zhou had once tried to control the Spirit Qi in his dantian to specialize in one Spirit Vein so that he could have the chance to reach a better realm quickly.

Unfortunately, the spirit energy in his dantian wasn't as obedient as he had imagined. Instead, it was silently cleaning the eight spirit veins at the same time.

He had to think about how to reduce the damage from the Qi Gathering Blast.

Yi Zhou began to ponder again.

Through different mental cultivation methods, Spiritual Energy could be transformed into different shapes. It could be condensed into a shield, it was sturdy and heavy, or it could be condensed into a blade and sword. It was extremely sharp.

What Yi Zhou had to consider was how to maximize the defense and attack the enemy.

The next day, in the morning, the top four contestants would be divided into groups of two matches. In the afternoon, the top eight eliminated contestants would be divided into groups of five to eight contestants in order.

The first match, Azure Sun Academy's Yi Zhou versus Hidden Dragon Institute's He Zhen.

This time, Yi Zhou's luck was bad, he did not manage to get to the one with the lowest cultivation level, Sun Kui.

Having entered the top four, the first level of Qi Condensation was already burning incense. Before, when the competition was not intense, this was not the case either.

Indeed, the number of participants in the tournament had increased by a lot. This Yi Zhou was truly lucky.

Seeing the results of the division, Yi Zhou did not feel anything. In any case, he was going for the third place prize. Today's mission, even if he lost, it didn't matter who he fought with.

But Yi Zhou did not want to admit defeat directly, he had to at least weigh the pros and cons of his opponent, and not come here for nothing.

I didn't expect you to be able to enter the top four. It looks like your previous arrogance isn't without reason.

The competition had already begun. On the stage, He Zhen said to Yi Zhou.

Have I ever been arrogant?

Yi Zhou asked himself, he never thought that he would be so arrogant, only when someone threatened and bullied him would he get angry.

However, since He Zhen had already decided, he didn't want to refute.

I heard your luck has always been good, so why aren't you doing well this time? He Zhen asked with a cold smile.

I've always relied on strength, is luck really useful?

A thought suddenly appeared in Yi Zhou's mind, and he wanted to use He Zhen to test the results of his thoughts yesterday.
