"Yes, Shi Long is cautious. Don't let her strong physique fool you; she's incredibly shrewd. Since she dared to step forward, she must be quite confident."
"It's not that simple. Someone pushed Shi Long to step forward. Given her character, she wouldn't do something like this."
"You mean the other two from the top three in the outer city?" someone asked.
"Perhaps, probably!"
"Wasn't it said that Shi Long has broken through and isn't among the three strong, including Zhuge Yunlang? Why was she pushed forward?"
"You're overthinking it. Even if Shi Long breaks through, she can't compare to the other two. At most, she can only compare to Zhuge Yunlang, who would be a nobody in front of them." "
You mean those two actually wanted to teach Qin Chuan a lesson, and were just using Shi Long as a test?" someone asked in surprise.
"I didn't say anything," the person before said calmly.
"I challenge you!" Shi Long said directly upon seeing Qin Chuan, without any further words.
This was a smart, large man, Qin Chuan's first impression upon seeing him, but he still didn't like this kind of person.
Seemingly concealed, his sharpness was actually not yet at that level. To the average person, it might appear as if his sharpness was concealed, but in reality, it was an open display.
Anyone with a bit of strength could sense that this stemmed from insufficient inner cultivation and an inability to fully control one's emotions.
Shi Long was currently at a crucial moment, needing an opportunity to break through. Qin Chuan knew that Shi Long had used him as that opportunity,
hoping to achieve a breakthrough in his mental state through a battle.
"I don't accept," Qin Chuan said calmly.
Few people would refuse as decisively as Qin Chuan. After all, Shi Long was qualified to challenge him. Refusing at this point was an act of fear.
He would be talked about, laughed at, which was a sign of cowardice that many people couldn't accept, affecting their mental state. Whether truly afraid or not, it was difficult to back down—this was the spirit of martial arts.
Shi Long was also taken aback. He hadn't expected Qin Chuan to refuse, so he was momentarily speechless.
"Scared!" Shi Long said with a smile.
"Scared, very scared, scared to death," Qin Chuan said with a smile.
"Uh..." Shi Long felt a bit confused. He had considered many possibilities but never expected his opponent to act this way, like a stubborn mule.
"If you're scared, give up Zhuge Yunlang's residence, and also, give her up too." Shi Long said with a smile, finally pointing at Yu Qing.
Qin Chuan didn't smile, but calmly looked at Shi Long and slowly said, "Are you ready?"
"What?" Shi Long was stunned.
"I asked you if you're ready." "
Ready for what?" Shi Long asked.
"Ready to die!"
After saying that, Qin Chuan moved, his whole body like a raging dragon, throwing a punch.
Bang!
The power of the world!
Forging God Hammer, using fists instead of hammers, the moves were like a storm, each attack targeting vital points and the most difficult to defend.
Bang bang!
Shi Long defended, Shi Long was high above, his body strong, seeing Qin Chuan directly attack with his physical body, Shi Long almost laughed out loud.
In the Bright Moon Palace, whether in the inner or outer city, there were very few people who dared to fight him with their physical body, and the first person to do so was to burst out laughing.
Because Qin Chuan posed no threat to him at all, after all, their strength and realm were a whole level apart. Shi Long was at the Void Realm, while Qin Chuan was still hovering outside the Void Realm.
Although it was only a step or two away, that step or two was an insurmountable chasm.
Shi Long relaxed after the fight; they were completely on different levels. He even doubted whether Zhuge Yunlang's move was truly a coincidence.
Attack Yin and Yang!
Targeting the weak points, the Forging God Hammer, under the overwhelming power of the world, gradually revealed its strength.
Qin Chuan's speed and reaction were too fast. As time went on, Shi Long realized he could only be beaten, unable to land a single blow.
But he didn't panic, because he felt that even if Qin Chuan kept hitting him, he wouldn't lose. As long as he landed a single hit, he was confident he could defeat Qin Chuan.
However, not long after, a feeling of irritation welled up in his heart, and he felt that Qin Chuan's punches were becoming increasingly vicious, and the blows were already very painful.
The pain was bearable for now, but the general discomfort was becoming increasingly unbearable. It was a burning sensation all over his body, especially in certain areas, and internally—his heart, liver, spleen, stomach, and kidneys—while externally, his anus and lower body were also burning uncomfortably. It felt like being in an extremely cold freezer, the pain unbearable.
Bang! Bang…
Qin Chuan's fists rained down like a storm, his techniques incredibly powerful. With each strike, the force of his attacks had accumulated to a terrifying level.
Shi Long was drenched in sweat, suffering terribly from the pain. He was completely unable to exert any strength, and this condition was worsening.
Bang!
His nearly three-meter-tall body collapsed with a crash.
Qin Chuan had stomped directly on his mouth, shattering all his teeth.
"How does it feel?" Qin Chuan smiled, moving his foot away and squatting down to ask.
Shi Long was in excruciating pain, a pain so intense he even contemplated suicide to end the suffering.
"I won't kill you. Live. This feeling will last a day, then you'll slowly recover. Enjoy it. Okay, you can come back and challenge me again. I'll give you an even more exciting experience." Qin Chuan finished speaking, stood up, and pulled Yu Qing away.
Many people around shuddered. They had all seen the horrific state of the stone dragon; the excruciating pain made everyone around tremble.
Anyone who wanted to mess with Yu Qing or cause trouble for Qin Chuan should consider what it would feel like to fail.
Yu Qing didn't speak, letting Qin Chuan pull her away. This man was like a Tyrannosaurus Rex when he was in a rage.
As long as someone tried to mess with him, this man would go berserk. He was usually very generous and didn't care about anything, and he wouldn't hold grudges against others.
But once someone tried to mess with her, this man would strike violently, leaving the other person either dead or badly injured.
Looking at Qin Chuan strangely, Qin Chuan naturally noticed the gazes on Yu Qing and smiled: "Do you think I'm ruthless?"
"No, the strong prey on the weak. That's the rule. Since you provoked me first, you've already held back." Yu Qing smiled.
"Yes, my little Qingqing has such a sweet voice, I love it," Qin Chuan said happily.
"Now a lot of people should behave themselves, right?" Qin Chuan said.
"Not necessarily!" Yu Qing laughed.
"Oh? What's going on?" Qin Chuan asked.
"Next week is the Bright Moon Palace competition, and there will also be a competition in the outer city. You can challenge anyone then, and I'm sure many people will challenge you," Yu Qing said.
"I forfeit, I concede," Qin Chuan said.
"Uh, okay!" Yu Qing was defeated by Qin Chuan's shamelessness.
