Chapter 83 Cultivation Speed Seeking Red Tickets Collection

  Hoo! Hoo!――

  Pom pom pom!――

  Two agile figures were constantly interweaving and fighting in the courtyard, their fists and feet exerting immense power that brought forth a whistling wind sound, their aura was overwhelming, ordinary people wouldn't dare to get close to this scene; one figure stood tall wearing a grey training uniform, the other wore a military green combat vest with bulging red muscles all over his body, constantly clashing and striking each other, producing loud thudding sounds.

  Xie Shu, with a square face and a serious expression, and Gong Zhengwei, with thick eyebrows and a square face, stood by and watched the two men exchange blows, their eyes widening in shock at the intense noise.

  Pom pom pom!

  A young man with a straight figure, his fists and feet were in perfect harmony, his movements were bold and unrestrained. His footsteps were quick and agile, and he executed his moves with ease, as if he was dancing. His opponent, on the other hand, was straightforward and simple in his attacks, each move was a powerful killing blow, decisive and merciless. However, at this moment, the young man, Tu Gongzi, was dominating the fight, his opponent, a burly man wearing a combat vest, was struggling to keep up, and was mostly on the defensive, unable to counterattack effectively, being driven back by Tu Gongzi's relentless attacks.

  Occasionally being punched and kicked, making a muffled sound, as if hitting worn-out leather, the force of the attack is constantly being dissipated.

  Cheers!

  The muscular man let out a loud roar, his muscles bulging, skin reddening, and crossed his arms to block Tu Gongzi's powerful blow. He grasped the pole with his legs, shifted his body to one side, and leaned forward with great force, charging at Tu Gongzi like a fierce horse. The momentum was incredibly ferocious, and if he collided, it would likely break several ribs, sending him flying out directly and causing internal injuries.

  Tu Gongzi saw that the opponent was resisting his attack, and then counterattacked with a loud shout. Unexpectedly, he didn't dodge or evade, but instead raised both hands to form a firm stance and charged forward, wanting to engage in a fierce collision with the opponent.

  "The Tyrant Lifts the Tripod!"

  Tu Gongzi's face turned red with rage, and he let out a loud roar as he charged towards his opponent.

  Pfft!

  It was as if the sound of wood and stone colliding had erupted, and Gou Gongzi's right leg retreated half a step. The lower body of the fierce man with the combat vest was unstable, and he stumbled backward five or six steps before stabilizing his figure, leaving two rows of deep footprints on the ground. His face was constantly flushing red from being punched and kicked. If one looked closely, they would notice that both his hands and right shoulder were trembling incessantly, clearly having overexerted himself earlier and suffered a significant loss.

  He has lost already!

  "Good! Hua Gongzi lives up to his family's reputation, traditional martial arts have actually been practiced to this level. You know, Gao Yaotai is one of the top three in our team's hand-to-hand combat rankings, and his hard qigong is unmatched by anyone. I didn't expect him to lose to you, impressive, impressive!"

  Gong Zheng saw that both sides had already clearly won or lost, and at this time the sky was about to darken, so he interrupted.

  "Hmm, Yota is indeed not bad. If I hadn't just broken through to the second layer of Zhen Qi, it's hard to say who would win or lose."

  Tu Gongzi's gaze at Gao Yaotai was full of admiration, thinking that if he hadn't just obtained the true secret book of "Bawangquan" and his real energy had broken through, his physical quality would have been enhanced again. Even if he had practiced family-transmitted martial arts since childhood, it would be a tie at most.

  "What? Your true energy has broken through? How is this possible?"

  Gao Yaotai, the robust man wearing a combat vest who had returned to Gong Zhengwei's side with an unyielding expression, was startled by Tu Gongzi's words and his face revealed an uncontrollable astonishment; after all, he himself was also an Awakened One, otherwise it would have been impossible for him to fight against the opponent for so long, naturally knowing what the Second Layer of True Energy was, only not expecting that the opponent had actually broken through so quickly.

  "How is this possible? Even if I've been practicing hard qigong, it can only bring up my internal energy by about half. To break through, I still need at least another half of the effort. And yet, my speed is already considered fast among known awakened individuals. You know that even if someone awakened on the first day of the world's variation, it's been less than ten days now? Breaking through one layer of internal energy in a month is already considered not bad, but he broke through in just about a week, this is too unbelievable! This isn't just being two or three times faster than others, if this accumulates, the gap will be huge."

  From this, it can also be seen how freakishly fast Liang Jing's cultivation speed is.

  "Uh, I've been practicing internal martial arts since I was a kid, so I've been taking medicinal meals to supplement my body at home. I had a feeling of qi several years ago, but back then the spiritual energy in the world was scarce and progress was slow. After the world changed and spiritual energy became abundant, and after awakening to my innate abilities, I was able to rapidly improve. To be honest, this is just because my foundation is good, my actual talent isn't that great."

  Most of what Master Gou said is true, but there's another reason he didn't mention: the cultivation of "Hegemon Fist" can accelerate the refinement and condensation of Qi, and has a guiding and driving effect on the True Qi in the body, accelerating its accumulation. He doesn't want to reveal this, thinking that it's better if only he knows. This is also why he needs to consume Variant Beast meat - cultivating "Hegemon Fist" requires consuming excessive energy to enhance his own strength.

  "Hmm!"

  Gao Yaotai's expression eased a bit as he listened to Tu Gongzi's explanation, otherwise he really couldn't accept it, and the blow would be too great for him. After all, he had always thought that he was not inferior to anyone else, while others were the result of years of accumulation and hard work; however, despite this, he still clenched his fists tightly and secretly encouraged himself to catch up with the other person!

  Although the effect of true energy is not very great now, it only has a certain nourishing and strengthening effect on the use of innate skills, accelerates the recovery from fatigue, and when breaking through the level of the card, the physical quality will be improved to a certain extent. However, the higher the level of true energy, the greater its enhancement and promotion effect on strength is undoubtedly huge; Moreover, as the level of true energy cultivation increases in the future, its effect will absolutely continue to increase, and it's not impossible for abilities like those in martial arts novels, such as enhancing fist and foot attacks, flying through the sky, and summoning wind and rain.

  He just didn't know that there was a freak like Liang Jing, who had never practiced martial arts before and had gone from zero to hero in just a few days, breaking through the second layer of true energy and even approaching the third layer. He wondered if he would be able to accept Liang Jing's monstrous talent and feel extremely ashamed.

  "By the way, is there any news about Lü Fengsheng and them?"

  Tu Guiwu suddenly reacted, it's almost dark now, Lü Fengsheng took people out to find Liang Jing for revenge, but there is no news at all.

  Others also reacted at this time, wondering if something unexpected had happened. How could there not be even one person to report the news? They all had a bad premonition in their hearts.

  "Since Da Shao and Lv Fengsheng left this morning, there has been no news from them. I've sent people to look for them, but nothing has been found." Xie Shu replied.

  "Not good! We need to send more people out to search!"

  Gong Zhengwei was getting anxious, his face changed and he hastily said that while other people didn't matter to him, Zhang Bao and his mutated military dog were very important roles for Gong Zhengwei and the team. Whether it was searching for enemies or standing guard, they were indispensable, otherwise the losses from those red-eyed mutated monsters would be unimaginable. After all, a team had only over a thousand people, if a few died today and a few more died tomorrow, it would soon become unbearable to think about. Now in the entire army, there was only this one mutated military dog, its importance could be imagined, otherwise they wouldn't have given Zhang Bao, who was eliminated and became an assistant cook, the role of squad leader to show how much they valued him. At this moment, Gong Zhengwei had some regrets in his heart.

  "I'll hurry back and send more people to look for them."

  Gong Zhengwei's face, which was always stern and serious, also couldn't hold on, and he hastily led his subordinates back to the Ministry of War.

  ……

  Just as Tú Gōngzǐ and Gǒng Zhèngwěi were worried about Lǚ Fèngshēng and Zhāng Bǎo, Liáng Jìng had already set off in full armor towards their direction. Liáng Jìng had previously inquired from the captured Tú Wūguī that for the next two days, Tú Wūguī would be staying in a nearby village and would only set off again after a while, quickly catching up with the vanguard troops.

  Because the fugitive crowd has men, women and children of all ages, the distance they walk every day is very short, and the speed is very slow. The army that opens the road in front will also face many battles with mutant monsters. Tu Wu Gui and others are walking for a while, finding a better place to settle down, and then resting for two or three days before continuing their journey.

  Liáng Jìng continued to trouble the three captured awakeners after Zhāng Bǎo, but nothing came of it and they were killed. The most pressing matter now is to increase their strength.
