Strongest Offline Cultivation
34 Zhu Tan's comeback
Fu Chen returned to his bench where he received the gaze of several participants. This time some fewer people were badmouthing him.
Most of them were just shocked and surprised after seeing his attack. Fu Chen sat on his bench and put a serious expression on his face.
'I didn't expect to use the First Stance. Though I could go on with just the dagger, my Spiritual Qi would've been depleted. I thought my physical strength was strongest among us but despite having the same cultivation as me, his strength was above mine.'
'It doesn't make sense unless it is his talent. Mu Fan… Mu Fan... oh yeah, he is the guy who managed to break the giant boulder with a single punch after his awakening.'
'Damn it! I almost forgot that he has a strong type of Martial Spirit. It seems that helped him strengthen his body and if I hadn't caught him by a surprise, he could've used the Martial Spirit.'
......…
"Hey Mu Fan, why didn't you use your Martial Spirit?"
Zhu Tan asked as Mu Fan passed by him.
Mu Fan paused and said "My Martial Spirit is not for show. I will only use it when it's necessary."
Saying so, he walked towards the bench and sat down.
'This guy!' Zhu Tan narrowed his eyes and clenched his fist. Mu Fan was a genius who awakened just a month ago. He managed to create quite a strong sensation in the sect.
Zhu Tan hasn't seen his Martial Spirit but he did hear about his feat from his grandfather.
Breaking nearly Hundred Kilos Boulder with his bare fist when he had just awakened. It was bound to make a sensation. But, only a few elders learned about his Martial Spirit and after that, he never revealed it.
He tried to ask his grandfather but his grandfather didn't answer. He didn't know what kind of Martial Spirit was that but he knew it wouldn't be a normal one.
'Damn it! Grandfather was right. I am slacking too much. After I win this competition, I will get a Middle-Tier Cultivation Technique because of my limited talent and other resources.'
'After that, I can't slack off. I must train. All of the slacking that I did for the sake of those rewards it will pay off. And, that bastard, I will crush him no matter what.'
Zhu Tan's eyes were blazing with intense determination. But, suddenly he came out of his thoughts as he heard the name.
"Disciple Zhu Tan Vs Disciple Cho Yo"
He clenched his fist and walked toward the stage.
The disciple next to him trembled a little.
"He seems a little angrier than usual, doesn't he?" One of the disciples asked.
"Well, he did get embarrassed because of Fu Chen, and seeing his strength grow in just a week should have made him mad." Another disciple nodded his head and answered.
"Anyway, he has already reached the Second Stage. And, he has also trained his third stance before this. It seems he is going to be the final winner." The third disciple spoke while shrugging his shoulders.
The first disciple who started the conversation put his hand on his chin and mumbled "I wouldn't underestimate our opponents. This is his fifth round and the opponent will just keep on getting better."
"From what I've heard, Cho Yo has also reached the second stage. It would be difficult for him if Cho Yo has mastered any martial art."
"We just have to wait, don't we?" Another disciple replied.
On the Battle Arena, Zhu Tan and Cho Yo stood in front of each other. Cho Yo was a tall girl. She was wearing the same clothes as other disciples making her figure slender and those breasts sticking out a little.
She looked a lot mature for someone of her age.
Zhu Tan stared at her for a moment and thought 'Cho Yo, a second stage cultivator with insane agility. She can move faster than the wind and even leap like a frog. Though I shouldn't say this in front of her or else she would get pissed.'
'Anyway, I can win this if I don't let her use her Martial Spirit which can further enhance her speed. Alright, let's give it a shot!'
Zhu Tan closed his eyes for a second and opened but his eyes widened when he didn't find her in front of him.
"Are you looking for me?" A seductive voice rang behind him as he instantly slammed his hand and turned around. Unfortunately, his hand only struck air.
Cho Yo had already retreated a few steps but she still kept that smile on her face.
"Zhu Tan, it seems you wasted the entire year just to get into this competition, right??"
Hearing her words, Zhu Tan clenched his fists and said "So what?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to see your face when you realize all of your hope getting crushed in front of you." Cho Yo giggled and sneered at him.
"You think you can defeat me? I will show you the true power." Zhu Tan stepped forward and the next moment his body just dashed towards her at an incredible speed but she was already behind him.
She was in mid-air as she slammed her leg down on his back. But, Zhu Tan quickly swing his body and slammed an uppercut. His fist struck her leg and made her jump back.
But, as she stepped back, her leg trembled a little.
"You anticipated my move?" She looked at Zhu Tan with wide eyes.
Zhu Tan put a smile on his face and clenched his fist.
"I am not an idiot to go against someone fast as you without any tactic. You have an incredible speed but you don't possess much endurance, do you?"
Whoosh!
The next moment, his body dashed towards her but she quickly moved to the center. Although her leg was trembling, she could still move like the wind. It was her body that gets so light that she could float and kicking herself with an immense force gives her even more speed.
But, Zhu Tan wasn't going down that easily.
"Tsk! I expected you to go there."
"Now, Martial Spirit come out!"
Zhu Tan roared as he released his martial spirit. His martial spirit was Tiger except it was completely made out of flames. His martial spirit jumped up and went to the other side.
"Roaring Tiger Stance"
"First Stance- Crushing Fist!"
Zhu Tan dashed towards her at an extreme speed. His upper body was covered with red armor made out of spiritual qi. At the same time, the Flame Tiger also dashed towards her at full speed and slashed his claw.
"Martial Spirit, come out!"
Seeing the attacks coming from both sides, Cho Yo roared and her martial spirit came out. It was a blue butterfly that wrapped its body around her and pulled her into the air.
Bang!
Zhu Tan's fist and his martial spirit claw collided, creating a powerful explosion in the middle of the arena.
This explosion made a powerful impact and released a cloud of dust.
'What's going on? Is he down or not?' Cho Yo looked around but she couldn't see his body. Zhu Tan was covered with dust but the more she stayed at the sky, the harder it became.
'No, I can't stay any longer. My stamina will go down any moment.'
Poof!
Her martial spirit disappeared and she jumped to the ground. She was only two meters above the ground so it didn't even make her flinch. But, it consumed a lot of stamina.
"You are tired, aren't you?"
Suddenly, a voice rang from her side and the fist covered with red armor slammed toward her. As soon as she saw that, she dodged to the right.
Bam!
But just when she thought it was over, the Fire Tiger slammed its claw on her back.
Thud!
She fell to the ground as she started bleeding.
Whoosh!
The referee elder swiped his hand and all of the dust got removed from the arena. In the middle of the arena, Zhu Tan was standing while drenched in sweat and Cho Yo was lying on the ground.
Just as the dust cleared, Zhu Tan's martial spirit returned to his body. He looked at Cho Yo and said.
"Your speed is your weapon but you focused too much on it and forgot that people can create counter-strategy against it. Even for me, it was just a simple task. Your behavior to move to the right whenever you had to dodge something unconsciously made it easier for me to place my martial spirit."
"And, your lack of endurance allowed me to force you to use the Martial Spirit. Next time, don't be so arrogant when you can't back it up."
Zhu Tan turned around and walked away but just as he reached the edge of the stage, Cho Yo.
"Hehe…. You regret being arrogant, don't you?"
