The Chen family's Hua Jin expert, upon arriving initially planned to directly challenge Xiao Yu. However, after seeing Zhou Tai and Yang Mu behind Xiao Yu when they entered, he instantly discarded his initial plan to act immediately.

He now waits for a proper opportunity because others can give up as the competition with Xiao Yu is merely about a martial artist's face due to Xiao Yu's words on that day.

But their family cannot. Two people from their clan were injured by Xiao Yu, and this matter must be resolved or the Chen family will have no standing in Treasure Island.

The Hua Jin expert who had kept his eyes closed since arriving suddenly opened them upon hearing the smaller clans giving up. He glanced around with disdain in his eyes, saying: "No wonder these families haven't accomplished anything significant and haven't produced a single Hua Jin expert yet. They don't even have the basic martial artist's fighting spirit to pass on, let alone talk about breaking through."

However, he wouldn't say this; it's better for none of these smaller clans to break through as it would threaten their family's status.

But when he saw the two families that didn't give up, his eyes narrowed slightly. Both sent Hua Jin experts but no one moved or spoke, looking very relaxed.

The Chen family's Hua Jin expert knew these two wouldn't be the first to act since they knew he would take action first; even if they remained passive, it wouldn't affect them much. But not for the Chen family.

His gaze finally settled on Xiao Yu: with their face already lost, only by defeating or seriously injuring Xiao Yu could they salvage their reputation.

The Hua Jin expert watched Xiao Yu as he slowly stood up from his chair and walked towards him. With every step, his aura grew stronger until it reached its peak when he arrived at the center of the venue.

Xiao Yu trembled as the man approached. His frenzied aura was laced with a faintly sinister energy, clearly indicating that this person was battle-hardened and had many victims under his belt.

Seeing him approach, Xiao Yu's aura surged suddenly. Such a person isn't like Old Chen Xi who could be easily defeated; despite Hua Jin being just one level above Ding Jin Peak, the difference in power is enormous.

Hence, Xiao Yu made no further reservations and released all his aura and killing intent towards this Hua Jin expert.

The Chen family's expert initially looked relaxed. In his view, defeating Xiao Yu should be effortless. But when Xiao Yu's surging aura and frenzied killing intent enveloped him, the expert's calm demeanor changed instantly as he hurriedly retreated.

Xiao Yu wanted to surprise the man with his killing intent but was surprised at how quickly this person reacted: he managed to run out of Xiao Yu’s killing intent range before it could fully encircle him.

Xiao Yu hadn’t expected such a quick reaction. This expert truly isn't comparable to Old Chen Xi.

After regaining his balance, the Chen family's expert looked seriously at Xiao Yu with sweat dripping down from his temple. Xiao Yu’s frenzied aura nearly caused him to lose focus; fortunately, he had cultivated his willpower over the years to be as hard as iron or else today would've ended like Old Chen Xi.

But where did Xiao Yu get such intense killing intent Such an aura suggests countless kills; in these peaceful times, who could provide that many victims for him

Moreover, Xiao Yu is so young. Hence, he finds it inconceivable how this youth could have accumulated such a murderous aura.

The Chen family's expert looked at Xiao Yu with no trace of underestimation: Old Chen Xi didn't mention the killing intent on Xiao Yu’s body which means that perhaps Xiao Yu held back during their fight. Thus, he couldn’t afford any carelessness or else he might suffer the same fate as his cousin.

The two carefully observed each other before suddenly, the Hua Jin expert roared and charged at Xiao Yu; the aura Xiao Yu showed earlier made him regard them equally without a trace of arrogance in his heart anymore.

Xiao Yu stood there and felt a shadow, like lightning, flashing towards him with an outstretched palm. This palm was unremarkable and didn't even stir up any air currents.

As Xiao Yu looked at the approaching palm, his brows furrowed slightly as he watched this Internal Force expert in puzzlement, thinking to himself, "What effect can such a plain-looking palm have when it strikes me"

Suddenly, Xiao Yu's expression changed drastically. He rapidly backed off. When this hand was still one meter away from him, his five senses instinctively focused on the Internal Force expert before him. Upon concentrating his senses on this person, he sensed an extremely dangerous feeling emanating from the opponent’s palm.

Seeing Xiao Yu retreat, Chen Family's internal force expert increased his speed by threefold and swung his palm towards Xiao Yu who was retreating.

In a hurried moment, Xiao Yu quickly activated the Righteous Qi Technique, gathering righteous energy in both fists to meet the opponent’s palms.

"Bump…"

The place where their fists and palms met emitted a dull sound. At this point, when their fists and palms were touching each other, it seemed as if time had stopped, with neither moving an inch.

"Pfft..."

After about one second, Xiao Yu stepped back seven or eight steps in quick succession before spitting out a mouthful of blood. Meanwhile, Chen Family's internal force expert’s expression slightly changed but he remained rooted to the spot without moving an inch.

Xiao Yu stared at this person with shock. Although he was too hasty just now and hadn't achieved the optimal effect from the Righteous Qi Technique, even so, he believed that someone like Uncle Chen Boxi wouldn't be able to do anything to him. But now, this internal force expert's palm had actually caused some injury to Xiao Yu’s inner organs.

This was the first time Xiao Yu sparred with an internal force expert and got injured in a competition. However, there wasn’t any trace of disappointment or frustration on his face; he remained calm as usual.

The exchange just now was because it was Xiao Yu's first encounter with this internal force expert, and he hadn't expected the disparity between Internal Force and Dark Energy to be so significant. It seemed that one can't measure an internal force expert based on a dark energy practitioner’s strength.

Looking at the internal force expert, Xiao Yu’s expression turned serious as righteous qi rapidly circulated within his body.

At this moment, this internal force expert wasn’t as calm as he appeared. Though he didn't suffer any injury during their exchange just now, there was a surge in his inner organs.

No wonder Chen Boxi couldn't be the opponent of this young man. Just now, even with such an advantageous situation, he still failed to finish Xiao Yu off with one palm. He knew that he had exerted eight-tenths of his strength in this strike.

Seeing Xiao Yu spitting blood, Chen Family's descendants all showed a hint of joy on their faces but none of them spoke up for fear of affecting the elders engaged in the competition.

When Du Zhiping saw Xiao Yu spit blood, he was startled. He hadn't expected this from Xiao Yu. In his heart, he secretly wondered why Xiao Yu didn’t use magical techniques He believed that as long as Xiao Yu used magical means, this person wouldn't be his match. Even these two people might not stand a chance against him! Finished speaking, Du Zhiping looked at Yang Mu and Zhou Tai.

When Du Zhiping glanced at the two of them, both of them also turned to look at him.

Du Zhiping saw an inquiring expression in their eyes. He pondered for a moment and shook his head at them. Xiao Yu not using magical means until now must have his reasons, so he didn't let the two of them take action.

Furthermore, if Xiao Yu were willing to use magical techniques, how could this person from Chen Family be his opponent

Xiao Yù凝重地看著陳家這位高手,身體微微一動,就像一隻猿猴一樣,圍繞著這位化勁高手轉了起來。不時揮拳襲擊一下,但都被這個人擋了下來。

Zhou Tai和Yang Mu看到杜之平並冇有讓他們兩人出手的意思,繼而再次看向了場中。

場中,陳家的這位化勁高手身形甚至比蕭煜還快。他在擋住蕭煜攻擊的時候,還有餘力不時地反攻一下,這讓蕭煜隻能疲於應對。片刻之後,局勢逆轉,變成了陳家的化勁高手主動發起攻勢,而蕭煜則被動防守。

“難道要用法術手段嗎?”正在躲避中的蕭煜心中暗想。

“不行,不能就這樣放棄,否則以後怎麼進步?”隨即蕭煜否定了使用法術的想法。

蕭煜在那裡閃轉騰挪地避開化勁高手的攻擊,但他的速度和實力畢竟不及對方。因此,在躲避的過程中,還是讓對方的雙掌掃到了幾下。

即便隻是被對方的手掌邊緣掃到幾下,蕭煜內臟中也是一陣氣血翻湧,如果不是強行壓製恐怕早已吐血。

"呀………"陳家這人看到攻擊了這麼長時間,每當他認為能百分百擊中蕭煜的時候都被後者躲開,雖然現在蕭煜冇有還手之力,但他依然感到很憋屈。於是他大喝一聲,速度再次加快,揮舞雙掌猛然向蕭煜撲來。

蕭煜看著快速襲來的化勁高手,內心卻在瞬間平靜下來,冇有任何波動地看著向他襲來的雙掌。

而陳家的這位化勁高手看到蕭煜,臉上露出一絲笑意。以他的速度,在這種情況下蕭煜不可能躲開這一擊,想到他們陳家即將洗刷恥辱,心裡隱隱有些興奮。

突然,這個化勁高手臉上的笑意驟然消失,一臉不敢置信地看著他雙掌剛剛襲擊過的地方。

隻見那裡並冇有看到絲毫的人影。他明明剛看見蕭煜站在這裡一動不動,而他的雙掌也幾乎就要擊中蕭煜,但按理說以剛纔觀察到的速度,在這種情況下蕭煜根本躲不開的,但原地卻冇有任何人影。

陳家的化勁高手看到蕭煜躲開了攻擊,隻是稍微愣了一下後便趕緊看向旁邊。

當他扭頭一看,發現蕭煜就在他旁邊的不遠處。隻是讓他感到奇怪的是此時站在遠處的蕭煜緊閉著眼睛。

而當他對視時卻發現閉眼的蕭煜正用挑釁的手勢向他招手。

陳家的化勁高手看到蕭煜的樣子,感覺蕭煜是在侮辱自己。但他想到馬上就能將蕭煜斃於掌下,憤怒的心情頓時緩解了許多,心想哼哼,且讓你得意片刻吧。

想到這裡這個陳家的化勁高手再次猛撲向閉眼的蕭煜,但此時蕭煜雖然閉著眼睛卻和睜眼時相差無幾。當對方過來的時候他的身形微微一閃便躲開。

那人見蕭煜如此容易地避開攻擊意外愣了一下要知道他剛纔死死盯住了蕭煜,而蕭煜連眼睛都不睜開就避開了他的攻擊這讓心裡突然生出一絲不好的預感。

但他不信邪一般繼續向蕭煜進攻,然而每次出手都被靈活得像猿猴般的蕭煜避開,而且每次都隻差一厘米就能擊中他。無論怎樣提升速度也相差這一點。

而看蕭煜的樣子,他似乎躲避得很輕鬆,每當對方攻擊過來時,閉著的眼睛都冇睜一下,隻是輕輕一閃身便躲開了對方的攻擊。

It turned out that right when the opponent attacked Xiao Yu, his mind was clear and calm as if his soul had left his body. He observed everything around him; in his eyes, the two palms attacking him seemed to slow down. Previously, he would not have been able to dodge such an attack, but this time, with just a simple sidestep, he managed to avoid it.

‘Unity of Heaven and Man.’ Under the pressure from the opponent, Xiao Yu entered this legendary state once again. In this state, Xiao Yu felt as though he was in control of everything within his immediate surroundings; he was the master of that space.

The last two times he had been in this state, despite quickly defeating his opponents, the duration of being in such a condition was too short for him to truly understand it.

Therefore, after entering this state once again, Xiao Yu did not attack but only dodged the opponent’s attacks, trying to prolong the duration so he could enter this state anytime in the future.

While avoiding the attacks, Xiao Yu had his eyes closed as he pondered over being in such a state.

Du Ziping and Zhou Tai, along with Yang Mu were stunned when they saw Xiao Yu’s current form. Even the two elders from other families who hadn’t joined the battle stood up in shock, watching Xiao Yu dodge the attacks of Chen Family’s Internal Strength expert gracefully as if he was being aided by a god.

Everyone from different clans watched this scene with astonishment. Du Ziping stared blankly at Xiao Yu for some time before he fell into deep thought.

Zhou Tai and Yang Mu were surprised to see how easily Xiao Yu dodged the attacks, even gracing them with a faint smile as they did so; their own Internal Strength cultivation was already on par with that of a master, but they had never seen such a state as this before.

"Eld... Elder Du, what’s going on" Knowing Du Ziping's unique abilities and the fact that he might know things others didn’t, Zhou Tai and Yang Mu asked him.

Since Du Ziping was deep in thought with a furrowed brow, he did not answer their question. Seeing his serious expression, they refrained from asking further to avoid disturbing his train of thought.

Suddenly, Du Ziping snapped out of his thoughts and opened his eyes wide, showing shock on his face as he subconsciously stepped forward, pointing at Xiao Yu and trying to speak.

But before he could utter a word, something occurred to him. He quickly clamped his mouth shut and stared intently at the scene where Xiao Yu dodged another attack from the Internal Strength expert with just a flick of his body.

Zhou Tai and Yang Mu wanted to ask Du Ziping what was happening but were stopped by his hand gesture.

Seeing this, they immediately fell silent, following Du Ziping’s gaze towards Xiao Yu. As time passed, Xiao Yu continued to dodge the attacks without retaliating; his smile grew wider with every dodge.

Half an hour...

An hour...

After waiting for an hour and a half, Xiao Yu finally noticed some patterns in the situation. He realized that what he was experiencing wasn’t an out-of-body experience but rather his consciousness merging with this small space around him; it felt like his consciousness had become one with this area.

Xiao Yu felt fine since he seemed to have effortlessly merged into this environment, but Chen Family’s Internal Strength expert was not so lucky. He was now drenched in sweat and panting heavily due to exhaustion.

This is a shortcoming of Internal Skill cultivation; focusing on the internal circulation means that once the energy within his body depletes, it requires time for replenishment without which he cannot regain his strength. or forests, people would definitely think it was a deity descending. However, here amidst concrete and steel buildings, he looked more like an ordinary person.This was Du Zhiping's first time steppin...
