"This competition will not use internal energy; it will be a contest of physical strength."
"If you are proficient in swords and sabers, you may use any weapon you wish!"
Zhang Tian said.
He didn't want to be accused of bullying the weak, since the biggest characteristic of the Condensing Qi Realm was that true qi could be transformed into qi, and the power of qi was much greater.
If both of them used their true energy, Zhang Tian would have a huge advantage.
However, even without using his true energy, Zhang Tian's cultivation level still gives him the advantage, and given that he has been cultivating his body since childhood, his chances of winning are extremely high.
Name: Zhang Tian

"I'll go empty-handed too. If you still feel it's unfair, you can use your true energy if you want."
Li Ming spoke calmly, and as he spoke, he moved his left hand and put the swords and sabers aside.
"Hmph! You're getting a bit arrogant, kid!"
Zhang Tian roared angrily, and as he finished speaking, his muscles bulged and his whole body seemed to have grown larger.
Li Ming simply smiled, stretched his limbs, and his eyes sharpened.
"Kid, watch out for my Great Stone-Smashing Hand!"
Zhang Tian shouted and launched the first attack, rushing to Li Ming's side and striking out with a palm!
Powerful and heavy!
The terrifying energy swept out like a whirlwind!
Li Ming remained expressionless, unleashing his Mountain-Shaking Fist, which slammed into Zhang Tian's palm!
With a loud bang, Zhang Tian's expression changed. He pulled his arm back to deflect the force, taking several steps back. How could this be? He had actually lost in terms of strength.
If I hadn't released my force just now, I would have suffered internal injuries.
Before Zhang Tian could react, Li Ming moved his feet and activated "Eight Steps to Catch the Cicada".
In just a moment, Li Ming disappeared from Zhang Tian's sight.
"Mountain Shaking Fist!"
Suddenly, Li Ming's voice boomed like thunder, and he was already at Zhang Tian's side in a flash.
Zhang Tian's expression changed drastically, and he hastily raised his arm to defend himself.
However, with a loud "bang," Zhang Tian flew out like a cannonball and crashed directly into the wall of the lobby.
After a while, Zhang Tian finally got up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"sharp."
"But I'm going to use my true strength!"
Zhang Tian straightened his chest and raised his hand.
Ignoring the bloodstains at the corner of his mouth and his dusty clothes, he did have the air of a master.
"Um... well, I'll have to go all out then."
Li Ming frowned and said cautiously.
Surprisingly, the other party was quite resilient.
"Hahaha, I cultivate the Horizontal Strength Divine Skill. Everyone knows I am incredibly strong, but they don't know that my defense is even better."
"Bring it on, let me see just how capable you really are!"
Zhang Tian laughed loudly. He had never used this defensive power when sparring with others before.
With so many people watching today, I must impress Li Ming and let the world know my abilities!
"Then... I'm really going to do it."
Seeing this, Li Ming stopped being coy and took a deep breath.
He clenched his five fingers together, raised his hand to form a fist, and assumed the final move of the Mountain-Shaking Fist.
No one watching the battle dared to blink.
With a cracking sound, a large amount of airflow gathered on Li Ming's fist.
With the combination of "Nine Bulls and Two Tigers" and "Jade Bone," along with his fierce fist techniques, Li Ming, in a single breath, seemed to suck up all the air in the area with the force of a bull swallowing a horde of oxen.
After that.
With a loud "thud," a powerful force spread in all directions, like a raging storm.
"?"
Seeing this, Zhang Tian felt a little flustered, but he quickly regained his composure and focused on dealing with the situation.
A sense of perfect harmony permeated Zhang Tian's body.
It seemed that no matter how the air currents blew, they couldn't shake him in the slightest.
This is the indestructible defensive stance, arguably the strongest defensive martial art among the lower three ranks.
Li Ming's speed and power were even more exaggerated; he descended from the air with an aura that seemed capable of destroying everything in his path.
Within three feet, everyone is an enemy.
moment!
A thunderous roar, a deafening "boom".
The once solid long blue bricks, with this punch, seemed to be about to be lifted from the ground, bursting open with spiderweb-like cracks.
The surrounding flowers and plants were instantly reduced to flat ground.
This Mountain-Shaking Fist strike landed squarely on Zhang Tian's outstretched palms in an instant.
"That was powerful!"
Zhang Tian managed to squeeze out a sentence.
The tall figure then lost his footing and was blasted away on the spot, landing once again against the thick wall, as if he had been embedded in it.
The person was like a gemstone embedded in it, unable to get off for a while.
"Are you alright?"
Seeing such a display, Li Ming was somewhat alarmed.
He didn't intend to kill anyone, it was just a friendly sparring match!
"It's nothing... Ugh... Your punch wasn't bad!"
After a while, Zhang Tian calmly and composedly got himself out, his expression unchanged.
He maintained his previous calm demeanor.
The slight trembling of her legs seemed to reveal her true condition.
"Are you really alright? If you were injured, you wouldn't ask me for medical bills, would you?"
Li Ming asked again.
If anything were to happen to Zhang Tian, and the Zhang family came after him, wouldn't he be unjustly killed?
After all, the other party did get beaten up by him, even if it was at the other party's request.
Just like many people in my past life, I'm all talk and no action.
If you actually fight, the other party will definitely sue you, or you'll have to pay compensation!
"Brother Li, my Vajra Indestructible Defense Stance is a well-known defensive technique."
"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."
Zhang Tian still had a smile on his face.
"But...you're vomiting blood?"
Li Ming looked at Zhang Tian, whose mouth was oozing blood, and kindly reminded him.
"Really? Maybe you ate too much just now and your blood and energy are too full."
"Ahem, I need to go back and rest for a bit, no, I need to digest it."
"Of course, I, Zhang Tian, acknowledge your first place."
After saying that, Zhang Tian flew away as if his feet were flying.
His hands, clasped behind his back, trembled uncontrollably, as if he were having a seizure.
According to sources, Zhang Tian has not left his home for a month since the conference.
[He decisively defeated Zhang Tian, who from then on dared not underestimate anyone in the world, and his life force increased to 2000.]
...
Although Zhang Tian tried very hard to maintain his composure, the result was still obvious.
"Zhang Tian was defeated so easily?"
"That punch... was extremely powerful. Even if a martial artist at the Condensation Realm used protective qi, without proper defense, they would likely be either killed or seriously injured."
"Is this Li Ming really just a martial artist at the Qi Refining stage?"
"I inquired and found out that Li Ming had already killed a powerful enemy at the eighth rank of Qi Refining when he was at the ninth rank of Body Forging. At the eighth rank of Qi Refining, he killed a bandit at the seventh rank of Qi Condensation. Challenging opponents of higher ranks is as easy as drinking water for him. If he keeps fighting like this, who knows, he might be able to kill his way to the Grandmaster level one day?"
"You're overthinking it. Do you think a Grandmaster is like wheat, something you can harvest whenever you want?"
"If such a prodigy were born into my family, I would gladly die for him."
Everyone was deeply moved.
Everyone was completely convinced of Li Ming's first place.
Some have asserted that if it were a true contest of martial arts prowess to determine heroes, he would likely still have a place among them.
"This... Brother Li actually won so easily?"
Qin Yun was just as surprised as the rest of the onlookers.
Clearly, she hadn't expected Li Ming to be so powerful in combat.
Even though he had high hopes for Li Ming's potential, he didn't know he was this amazing.
Zhang Tian was quite famous in Cangyang City. He had been incredibly strong since childhood and loved sparring with others. Almost no one could win against him.
After reaching adulthood, Zhang Tian disregarded his peers and family members, claiming to be invincible throughout Cangyang.
The reason he challenged Li Ming to a duel wasn't because he had any ulterior motives; it's simply because Li Ming is a sparring fanatic.
He was even bold enough to challenge a grandmaster to a duel.
As a result, they could fight more than ten rounds in physical combat alone.
From then on, he basically stopped respecting his peers.
I never expected to suffer such a big setback today.
"Brother Li, well done!"
Cai Shisan, without considering that he was actually older than Li Ming, laughed loudly.
Li Ming said softly, "You flatter me."
He really didn't feel anything was wrong, after all, in terms of physical aptitude, he was completely unmatched in the entire arena.
In addition, this time I ate all sorts of nourishing foods, which perfectly made up for the last deficiency.
"No need for flattery, I can see that your body tempering skills are already unparalleled among the younger generation in Cangyang County. Impressive!"
Cai Shisan smiled broadly.
The stronger Li Ming became, the happier he was.
This proves that I have good judgment.
It has the spirit of our ancestors.
After exchanging a few words, Cai Shisan organized his men to clean up the venue and announced the end of the meeting in front of everyone.
Li Ming, on the other hand, is undoubtedly number one and can choose two treasures from the God of Wealth Pavilion first.
