Chapter 132 – ‘Heart-Refining’ (1/2)

Chapter 132 - Heart-Refining

Shi Potian raised his eyebrows, sneered in his head and thought, 'Trying to compete with my Golden Crystal Body with some random defensive art? That's recklessly stupid kid.'

“In that case, let's find out what you can do.”

Leaning his body forwards, Shi Potian’s speed immediately raised to its limits, leaving shreds of pure gold afterimages behind him. In terms of speed he was only slightly slower than Lin Qi, by less than just ten percent.

Less than three meters away from Ye Chen, Shi Potian crooked his right arm and then launched a great punch.

This punch was simple and straightforward, it contained a condensed yet tremendously powerful stream of power, and it caused an especially ear-piercing noise that caused a great deal of pain in their ears.

Ye Chen showed no signs of stepping back. Instead he also took a step forward and threw out his own punch.

Thud!

The two of them both stepped back quickly and temporarily lost the control of their bodies.

“Damn! Not even the slightest bit of power contained in their punches has gushed out, all of it's been throw at each other!”

“In terms of strength, the two of them are at the same stage. But, I'm not sure if Shi Potian has used his full-strength.”

“To be honest, I truly can’t tell which of them is stronger. Their powers were both burst out at the exact same moment that their bodies made physical contact, so it’s hard to tell unless you are in the fight yourself.”

Instantly, people started whispering among themselves.

Shi Potian stopped stepping back, and showed a slightly shocked expression on his face. He was called ‘Stone Man’ by others, not only because of his great defensive power, but also because of his amazing strength. Without using any of his Zhen Qi, he had once killed a rank 3 demonic beast bare-handed. He even dared to challenge a rank 4 beasts with just his punches alone. However, this Ye Chen who was a couple of years younger than him, possessed great talent when it came to sword skills and had already comprehended the half-step sword intent; moreover, now it appeared that he also had an amazing defensive power. How was this even possible?

From Shi Potian’s aspect, the more outstanding Ye Chen was, the more he wanted to destroy Ye Chen’s confidence and make Ye Chen live in shame for the rest of his life.

“Let’s find out how many of my punches you can take!”

Speeding up again, Shi Potian darted up to Ye Chen and then he launched a new torrent of punches. That golden shining fist of his left countless shreds of afterimages in the air, and for every single punch he released, he would use all of his strength.

Ye Chen certainly didn't show any fear at all and launched his own attacks.

After a hundred moves, Shi Potian let out a malicious grin and then yelled out.

“Take this!!”

'He's not going to defend?!' Ye Chen frowned and thought.

Shi Potian seemed to have completely given up on his defense, and crazily increased his attacking speed. If he fought directly against him, he would inevitably suffer a few attacks; but if he does not launch a counter attack, he would fall at a disadvantage, after all, even the firmest defense would eventually show its weakness.

After pondering briefly, Ye Chen also decided to give up on his defense, and launched another series of heavy punches with his pair of jade-like heavy fists.

Bang!

Bang!

Both of them were struck by a punch that even sent up puffs of sparks up into the air.

Shi Potian began laughing in a vicious manner. That punch seemed to have had absolutely no effect on him. He dashed out once more and launched his attacks at Ye Chen.

As the series of thunderous punches continued, even Ye Chen and Shi Potian had no idea about how many punches managed to strike their bodies, they only felt waves of fierce shocks from every corner of their upper bodies; even their heads had been struck by those punches a few times. Compared to them, the younger generation talents who had been watching the display were dumbfounded. The only thing they knew was that the two men in the arena had been fighting against each other in an insane manner, both of them were only attacking as if they were both actually fierce wild beasts at this moment, neither of them bothered to defend against those attacks. It seemed like, the one who could deliver one more punch than the other, would be the one to win the fight.

“What a pair of lunatics! If anyone was to encounter one of them in the arena…how horrifying would that be?! Both of them have amazing defensive power…”

“Neither of them could break the other’s defense, not to mention us! We can only tickle them!”

“I know about Shi Potian’s defensive art, it’s called Magical Crystal Spell, but what is that Ye Chen’s defensive art? How can it be so powerful, it's not at all weaker than Shi Potian's!”

After a long confrontation, Shi Potian slightly lost his patience. Ye Chen seems to be more powerful than he had previously imagined, and he probably wouldn’t have too much advantage only with this Golden Crystal Body. So, he would have to try and use something else if he wanted to defeat him.

“[Heavenly Strike]!”

Shi Potian leapt up into the air while his pair of golden fists suddenly began shining in an even more dazzling manner than before, he then abruptly struck down towards Ye Chen.

“Finally, he used a martial skill!”

Against Shi Potian’s attack, Ye Chen launched the second movement of the [Tyrant's Fist], Lone Domination. All the surrounding Yuan Qi was instantly drained by his fist and merged with his power.

“Go!”

What shocked Ye Chen was that, for the very first time, his Tyrant’s Fist was being suppressed by another fist skill. The stream of power released from his punch, that had always been so destructive, was now shattering bit by bit, as if someone had placed a string of bombs inside it.

Woosh!

Ye Chen immediately took tens of steps backwards.

Shi Potian closely followed him and instantly threw out another heavy punch.
