Chapter 003: The Violent Potion for Hitting
Once again, Li Bin was knocked back by a punch, his back crashing directly against the wall of the room, causing his internal organs to jolt. As Li Bin found himself with no retreat left, Zhuge Xiang's attacks followed in quick succession, delivering yet another straight punch.
Li Bin's expression stiffened somewhat; he did not expect Zhuge Xiang to actually propose a duel.
Li Bin, Zhuge Xiang, what is the point of this? We are all roommates living under the same roof" Seeing that the two seemed to have completely fallen out and were about to duel in front of the public, Niu Geng couldn't help but speak up
Bang ! ! !
Take advantage of your illness to claim your life, in battle there is no room for hesitation. Watching Li Bin, who had been repelled by him, Zhuge Xiang naturally understood the need to further expand his advantage. With a powerful push off the ground, like a lion pouncing on a rabbit, he charged forward with overwhelming momentum. There were no flashy moves, no tricks, just another straight punch, unleashing one hundred percent of his strength.
You and I are both ordinary people who have not grasped the essence of Qi; what is there to be proud of? I will take it on next. " Provoked by Zhuge Xiang, Li Bin, being a young man full of vigor, readily agreed. Although he did not have absolute confidence in victory, he believed that since Zhuge Xiang had also not grasped the essence of Qi, there was no need for him to fear.
Just as Zhuge Xiang lowered his head to examine the elixir in his hand, a set of such information suddenly appeared before his eyes. Having already understood the rules of the game system, Zhuge Xiang felt a surge of joy, realizing that defeating his opponent not only allowed him to gain experience, but also something unexpected occurred.
With turmoil raging within, feeling a grip around his neck, breath became difficult. Faced with life and death, Li Bin dared not resist, and could only nod in resignation. At the same time, he opened his mouth to apologize for the earlier collision with Zhuge Xiang.
Just as Zhuge Xiang defeated Li Bin and compelled him to submit, a mechanical voice suddenly echoed in Zhuge Xiang's mind, causing him to pause slightly. Almost simultaneously, Zhuge Xiang raised his hand, and he noticed that a pill had appeared in the palm of his hand. The pale yellow pill, about the size of a soybean, emitted a peculiar fragrance that wafted through the air.
Battle is battle, and one must seize every advantageous opportunity to launch a fierce attack. In a moment of haste, Li Bin could only raise his hand to defend, but a punch struck his wrist with full force, causing Li Bin to be directly knocked back several steps, and his wrist also went numb.
The Shura Sect is one of the demonic sects, born for battle, gaining enhancement through combat. Even after death, one is to transform into a Shura, continuing their path of battle in the Shura realm. This is the tenet of the Shura Sect, thus within the Shura Sect, the highest value is placed on resolving any conflict through combat
However, it is very clear how to expand one's advantages and how to gain the upper hand. How could Zhuge Xiang, a master of books, allow him to easily turn the tables?
The human body, whether it is the skull, the chest, or the limbs, contains bones that provide a certain level of resistance to impact. However, the abdomen lacks any skeletal support, and when subjected to a heavy blow, the resulting damage can be several times greater than that inflicted on other areas.
Dragons all have a reverse scale; touching it will surely risk one's life. The same applies to humans. For Zhuge Xiang, who comes from a beggar's background, the remark about lacking upbringing precisely touched upon his reverse scale. Therefore, Zhuge Xiang challenged Li Bin to a duel
Too much bullying! As Zhuge Xiang's third punch came crashing in, Li Bin was also stirred to fury, roaring in anger as he met it with a straight punch of his own
Regarding Niu Geng's words, Zhuge Xiang did not pay any attention. Lacking experience, he had no intention of refusing and readily agreed.
Fist collided with fist, without any reservation. One was poised to strike, with three punches stacked, the momentum reaching its peak. The other, in a hurried counterattack, made the strength and weakness evident at a glance. The recoil force halted Zhuge Xiang's advance, while Li Bin, leaning against the wall, completely absorbed the impact, his face turning pale, clearly indicating internal injury.
Steel Elixir: Consuming it can increase physical defense by 150 points, lasting for 1 minute
"Take a punch from me!" As Li Bincai just agreed, Zhuge Xiang, who had been secretly prepared, wasted no time and decisively launched an attack. With a fierce punch, he struck towards Li Bin unexpectedly.
This time, he was defeated by Zhuge Xiang and even humiliated himself by apologizing to him. However, Li Bin was compliant in words but not in spirit; in his view, both he and Zhuge Xiang had not grasped the essence of Qi energy. If it had not been for Zhuge Xiang's sneak attack when he was unprepared, he would have never lost.
These 10 experience points arrived, causing Zhuge Xiang to feel secretly excited. He was only 10 experience points away from leveling up, achieving the cultivation of the Qi Nurturing Realm, and obtaining the official disciple status of the Shura Sect. He finally saw a glimmer of hope.
"Zhuge Xiang, don't!" For the people of the Shura Sect, dueling is sacred; no one can intervene until a victor is determined. Thus, although Niu Geng watched his two roommates duel with concern, he did not dare to interfere. However, now that Li Bin had lost his fighting capability, it seemed that Zhuge Xiang was about to strike a lethal blow, and Niu Geng could no longer hold back his voice.
As Zhuge Xiang's foot came down, Li Bin felt as if his intestines had been severed, churning violently. Clutching his stomach and curling up on the ground like a shrimp, he vomited the gastric juices and bile from his mouth, clearly devoid of any fighting capability
In the Shura Sect, even slaying an opponent in a duel is merely a minor punishment. Observing the bloodshot eyes of Zhuge Xiang, Li Bin felt a deep sense of regret. Caught in a dilemma, he realized that although obtaining the Blood Spirit Fruit alongside the book would guarantee his status as an official disciple of the Shura Sect, he had yet to acquire the Blood Spirit Fruit. Like Zhuge Xiang, he too was just an ordinary person who had not comprehended the Qi energy.
Originally, Li Bin could only bully the honest Niu Geng. As for Zhuge Xiang, he would not go too far. He had received a promise of a Blood Spirit Fruit from his cousin Zhao Feiyun and had already considered himself to have successfully comprehended the Qi energy, believing that he would definitely become an official disciple of the Shura Sect in the future. Therefore, Li Bin's courage had greatly increased today. He particularly disliked Zhuge Xiang's indifferent reaction, which highlighted the conflict between the two.
Not convinced? Upon hearing Li Bin's words, Zhuge Xiang, who was in need of someone to take action and earn experience, brightened his eyes and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Regarding Niu Geng's shouting, Zhuge Xiang paid no attention, his eyes glinting with fierce intensity as he leaned closer to Li Bin's face: "What do you think? Do you submit or not?"
"What’s the matter? Are you afraid? It seems that a dog that only barks has no ability to bite." Li Bin hesitated, unwilling to engage in a confrontation. How could Zhuge Xiang not see through this? With a mocking expression on his face, he sneered.
As the saying goes, one misstep leads to another; having lost the initiative, if one is further suppressed, it becomes difficult to turn the situation around. Therefore, Li Bin chose to counterattack, a reckless counterattack, risking everything in a fight for survival, perhaps still holding onto a glimmer of hope for a comeback
After a year of solitary cultivation in the Shura Sect, I only gained 80 experience points. However, after defeating Li Bin, I unexpectedly received 10 experience points instantly. One battle nearly equates to a month and a half of my own arduous training.
Ding, defeated the ordinary person Li Bin, gained 10 experience, and obtained the Iron Elixir
A cold light flashed in his eyes. Seizing the moment when Li Bin was momentarily halted due to his injury, Zhuge Xiang lifted his leg and delivered a powerful kick to Li Bin's abdomen
In a sect like the Shura Sect, which advocates resolving grievances through martial force, once a duel is proposed, almost no one would refuse. Otherwise, within the entire sect, not only would fellow disciples look down upon you, but even the masters and elders would regard you with disdain.
Although he has not comprehended the energy technique, he has at least undergone a year of rigorous training in the Shura Sect. While the Breath Cultivation Fist may lack combat power, Zhuge Xiang, who has already integrated the fist techniques, still exudes a certain momentum when he strikes.
"I refuse to accept this duel; I was not ready, and you struck suddenly. I refuse to accept it." At that moment, Li Bin, who felt the pain had eased significantly, suddenly shouted at Zhuge Xiang.
"I want to have another match with you. The official duel will take place in the training ground three days from now. Do you dare to come?" Li Bin said, staring fiercely at Zhuge Xiang.
Ignoring Li Bin's suffering at this moment, Zhuge Xiang seized Li Bin by the neck, almost lifting his entire body off the ground, his back pressed against the wall, his hand like a steel hoop, and due to the lack of oxygen, his face turned ashen.
