Chapter 97

Starting from Zhou Kang, every performer would, after displaying the final move of their learned techniques, jump off the white jade platform and find a large rock that displeased them, smashing it to pieces with one punch to demonstrate their strength.

The competition venue was surrounded by rocks, ranging from ordinary hardness granite to incredibly hard black iron rock, all kinds of rocks were available!

The weaker ones would shatter the granite, while the stronger ones would break the black iron rock. There were elite members of the Tao family tribe who could crack a cubic foot of black iron rock with a single punch!

Although Zhang Tan said there was no unified standard, implying that the power of the boxing techniques would not be compared, the participants were secretly competing. The targets they chose basically allowed them to display their maximum strength.

The later participants shattered larger and larger black iron rocks, with increasing power!

This caused the surrounding audience to cheer and shout in excitement.

"Next, Lian Chengyu!"

Zhang Tan called out, and Lian Chengyu stepped onto the stage!

"Lian Gongzi must win!"

"Lian Gongzi will rule the Divine Wasteland for thousands of years!"

After Lian Chengyu stepped onto the stage, the members of the Warrior Reserve Corps, who were squeezed in the crowd, started shouting. Since Zhao Tiexin was laid off, the members of the Warrior Reserve Corps began vying to be Lian Chengyu's top lackeys. These Warrior Reserve Corps members, though unsuitable for the Divine Kingdom election, were very strong among ordinary people. Therefore, even in a scene with tens of thousands of spectators, they managed to squeeze to the front and cheer loudly.

One person was particularly enthusiastic, and Yi Yun did not know his name. He usually subconsciously categorized him as the second Zhao Tiexin.

At this moment, this "second Zhao Tiexin" was shouting the loudest, making even Lian Chengyu, the person involved, feel uncomfortable. What did "rule the Divine Wasteland for thousands of years" mean? It was fine to say it at home, but in the public venue of the Tao family tribe's re-election, saying such things would only invite ridicule!

Sure enough, the surrounding Tao family tribe members laughed.

Lian Chengyu coughed dryly and stood on the stage. He ignored the Warrior Reserve Corps and closed his eyes to meditate, beginning to sense the elemental energy of heaven and earth.

After all, the white jade platform was a treasure of the Jinlong Guard, and the elemental energy on the white jade platform was indeed extremely rich!

"Awesome!"

Lian Chengyu took a deep breath and began to demonstrate the technique he had cultivated, naturally, the "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist"!

It had to be said that Lian Chengyu's "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist" was extraordinary in its power!

When he performed the "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist," the elemental energy of heaven and earth around him was stirred, forming invisible currents that blew in all directions.

An expert's move revealed their skill.

The elders of the Tao family tribe standing on the main stage, who originally had some mocking smiles on their faces, now slightly reined them in. After all, Lian Chengyu had grown up in a small tribe, and to reach this level was already a talent.

Lian Chengyu's "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist" was also the complete version.

At the time, although Yi Yun was also a disciple of Yao Yuan, he had learned secretly. Many things that Yao Yuan did not teach publicly were secretly passed on to Lian Chengyu. It was not that Yao Yuan was keeping secrets, but rather that these things, even if taught, could not be learned by people like Zhao Tiexin.

However, even though Lian Chengyu performed the complete version of the "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist," Yi Yun saw many flaws in it!

Yi Yun's "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist" came from Lin Xintong, and its completeness was beyond doubt. It was the most authentic "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist" in the entire Taiyi Divine Kingdom, with the characters and illustrations far more profound than ordinary engraved versions.

The "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist" itself, given by Lin Xintong, was already priceless, let alone the annotations she made in the book.

Lin Xintong was an extremely serious girl. Every insight she gained while browsing the "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist" was meticulously written down, and Yi Yun benefited greatly from it. Lin Xintong had already stood at a different level.

Yi Yun speculated that Lin Xintong must have come from some super sect or ancient family.

Lin Xintong's understanding of the "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist" also represented the profound heritage of ancient families, which the tribes of the Great Wasteland could not compare to.

While Lian Chengyu was performing the "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist," Yi Yun was carefully noting the imperfections in his movements.

To some, Lian Chengyu's every move was already perfect, but Yi Yun could still find flaws.

So far, Yi Yun had identified twenty-eight places where Lian Chengyu's movements were not smooth.

It was hard to imagine that in Lian Chengyu's rapid movements, Yi Yun could keenly spot every flaw. This was due to Yi Yun's increasing strength and enhanced senses.

If Yi Yun were in a life-and-death duel with Lian Chengyu, then every flaw in Lian Chengyu's movements would be an opportunity for Yi Yun to defeat him!

Identifying twenty-eight flaws meant that Lian Chengyu would find it very difficult to face Yi Yun in a direct confrontation.

"Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!"

At this moment, Lian Chengyu's body emitted crisp bone-cracking sounds.

Then, "Snap! Snap! Snap!"

Like a strong bow being drawn, this was the resonance of the tendons.

The essence of the "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist" lay in strengthening the bones and tendons. The bones were tiger bones, and the tendons were dragon tendons. The "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist" aimed to transform a martial artist's bones and tendons into dragon tendons and tiger bones.

Therefore, the bone cracking and tendon resonance were the most important signs of mastering the "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist."

"Roar!"

Lian Chengyu shouted loudly, leaped off the white jade platform, and punched a black iron rock the size of a millstone.

"Crack!"

The black iron rock suddenly trembled and shattered directly!

Lian Chengyu's fist felt numb, but his eyes were filled with excitement.

He had succeeded! This demonstration reached his best state, and that punch was Lian Chengyu's ultimate attack. His performance could be considered perfect.

Lian Chengyu was very satisfied with himself. He retracted his already red fist, moved his fingers, and smiled at the surroundings, his gaze landing on Yi Yun.

His gaze carried a hint of provocation.

He had lost to Yi Yun in the preliminary selection, and in the re-selection, he naturally wanted to surpass Yi Yun. Yi Yun had a strong aura, but that was just a show of strength. In real combat, it was about true skills and strength!

Although the re-selection today did not compare strength, comparing techniques also left no room for tricks!

Lian Chengyu knew that Yi Yun's technique was also the "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist." Although Yi Yun had another move, the "Elephant Swallowing Technique," it was a secret technique for auxiliary cultivation, not a technique, and could not be demonstrated. Therefore, Yi Yun had to use the "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist."

Every person who had demonstrated on the stage had shown the power of their "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist" by attacking a black iron rock to test the destructive power of their technique.

For Yi Yun to stand out and win the impossible first place, he naturally had to demonstrate the power of his own technique.

But how much destructive power could Yi Yun's technique have? Could he even shatter a black iron rock the size of a washbasin? He might have to go for the granite.

In Lian Chengyu's view, Yi Yun's cultivation could not have reached the peak of the Meridian Realm, which was already a high estimate. Even if he reached the initial stage of the Qi Induction Realm at the Fifth Layer of Mortal Blood, what difference would it make? Yi Yun's technique was just a rough method, learned secretly from Yao Yuan. Whether he could even perform the complete "Dragon Sinew Tiger Bone Fist" was questionable, let alone have any outstanding performance?

Lian Chengyu stepped down from the stage.

The order of appearance for this re-selection was based on the ranking of the first round of the preliminary selection. The higher the ranking in the first round, the later they appeared on the stage.
