Ye Sheng shook his head and said, “I don’t need you to acknowledge that I’m the best around here.”

Li Ying frowned, and his eyelids twitched. He could hardly hold himself back anymore. “Stop beating around the bush. We’ll fight first!”

BOOM!

Li Ying threw a straight and incredibly powerful punch. He didn’t bother to attack stealthily, because he was going to use his speed to bully Ye Sheng.

Li Ying was at Sixth Stage and defeating Ye Sheng at Third Stage should be a piece of cake, so there was no need to be stealthy.

Ye Sheng saw his attack coming, took a step back, and raised his fist to violently punch back.

He met Li Ying’s punch head-on.

PAK! PAK! PAK! PAK! PAK!

Five consecutive crisp blasts resounded after Ye Sheng threw his punch. His Rolling Rocks Boxing Technique’s strength was multiplied by five, so its strength stood at 500 units. With the addition of Ye Sheng’s own physical strength, this punch alone carried more than 1,000 units of strength.

This amount of strength was no less than what a Sixth Stage martial artist had, and in fact was even more than what someone at that stage would have.

BAM!

Everyone had expected Ye Sheng to be sent flying. That should have been the way things happened.

But in reality, Ye Sheng’s body waivered a little, but his feet remained firmly rooted to the ground and were as steady as a mountain. Li Ying had no way of knocking Ye Sheng down, so he ended up bouncing off Ye Sheng instead. His wrist trembled, and he couldn’t help taking a step back.

“How can this be?” Li Ying stared in shock at Ye Sheng. He simply couldn’t figure it out. How could he have lost to Ye Sheng in terms of strength?

Yang Kun’s eyelids twitched as he watched from the sidelines. He started to have a bad feeling about this. This Ye Sheng seemed to be pretty formidable.

But he was only at Acquired Stage Third Level, so how formidable could he possibly be?

“I don’t believe it! Again!” Li Ying roared and suddenly charged forward again, throwing punches like typhoon rains as he attacked.

Random Crumbling Boxing Technique!

This was an extremely rare boxing technique that was extremely formidable. Those who used this particular technique had to be lunatics. There was no way to use this technique without being a nutcase first.

Just like how noobs could defeat great masters precisely due to their lack of experience, strategy, and predictability, this technique was like executing random moves that seemed disconnected but had the same goal. It was a move that attacked continuously and subconsciously, so there was no sequence to follow and no specific moves that could be predicted. Even the attacker didn’t know what sort of punch he would throw next, so how would his opponent know?

This change made Ye Sheng’s expression become stern. This was the weirdest sort of boxing technique he had ever come across. There was no sequence, no specific moves, and no pattern. Everything was randomly executed.

For a moment, Ye Sheng couldn’t do anything but try his best to defend himself with whatever moves he knew.

BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!

There were sounds of collisions coming from all over the place, and it was fairly intense. The other students watching had no choice but to keep moving back in order to give them sufficient space. They watched as Li Ying went completely insane as his aura kept intensifying as he continued to beat down on Ye Sheng like a lunatic.

“I can’t let him continue like this. He’s slowly reaching the essence of this boxing technique, and I have to interrupt his flow.” There was a glint in Ye Sheng’s eyes. He wasn’t stupid, and he knew that he was in danger now.

Once Li Ying had fully immersed himself in the Random Crumbling Boxing Technique, his punches would become smoother. Ye Sheng would have to add on even more strength, but that would also force him to reveal his trump card.

“Reincarnation Seal!”

Ye Sheng’s dantian grew warm as a surge of energy gushed out and appeared on his palm to become an ancient looking seal.

This seal looked very quaint and difficult to comprehend, and Ye Sheng flung it out almost immediately.

This move was quiet, and Ye Sheng did not make any special moves or do anything in particular. A very ordinary-looking punch carried the Reincarnation Seal in it.

BOOM!

Li Ying was reaching his maximum potential with his technique and was almost reaching maximum lunacy also, but, suddenly, a moment later, he felt like he had crashed into a hard wall and his head started bleeding. Ye Sheng’s punch had sent him flying more than ten yards. His body shuddered violently and he vomited a whole mouthful of blood. He came out of his earlier trance and was utterly speechless now.

How…how could this be?

One punch from Ye Sheng had been enough to knock him out of his trance?

But Li Ying was at Acquired Level Sixth Stage.

Ye Sheng was only at Third Stage.

They were so many levels apart, so Ye Sheng couldn’t possibly have done that.

But now, the impossible had happened.

“What technique did you use just now?” questioned Li Ying as he looked up and wiped the blood from his lips.

“Rolling Rocks Boxing Technique,” replied Ye Sheng flatly.

“Impossible.” Li Ying immediately refuted him. There was no way something as commonplace and lousy as Rolling Rocks Boxing Technique could have defeated him.

“There’s nothing I can do if you don’t believe me.” Ye Sheng shook his head. He couldn’t possibly tell him the truth. After the Reincarnation Sect was exterminated, these words were like a taboo within Great Qin.

Li Ying glared hard at Ye Sheng, his eyes filled with indignation.

He had lost just like that. He couldn’t take it lying down.

“I’ve lost, so you are Mister Number One after all.” Thankfully, Li Ying was the grandson of the Navy Commander after all and had some basic manners. He muttered these words after climbing to his feet with a dark expression on his face.

Ye Sheng looked at Yang Kun and stretched an arm out. “Do you want to try as well?”

Yang Kun’s expression had gotten sullen, and he didn’t say anything. He was on the same level as Li Ying, so if Li Ying couldn’t beat Ye Sheng, then neither could he.

Just then, a middle-aged man in a long purple robe came walking over. When he saw the scene in front of him, he frowned slightly and asked, “What happened here?”

Li Ying stood up straight and said, “Teacher, it was nothing. I was having a friendly match with one of our classmates.”

“A friendly match? Be careful next time. Let me introduce myself, I’m your teacher, and my name is Zi Yuantian,” he said.

Ye Sheng could hear some students around him whispering to each other. “Zi Yuantian? He’s a famous Inborn Level fighter. I’m surprised he’s the one guiding us.”

Zi Yuantian stood up very straight, as if he was a long spear. His gaze was electrifying as he stared at everyone. All the students felt a pain from his gaze, but nobody dared to say anything.

“From today onward, I will teach you martial arts for the next three months to build your foundations well. I hope everyone will work hard. If anyone wants to slack off, then get out now. I know that all of you have cultivated before entering Jixia Academy, but all of you are at different levels. Some of you have a good foundation, while some of you have terrible foundations. If you progress well, then you should be able to leave this classroom in about two weeks, and you can look for your next teacher. As for those of you with poor foundations, I will definitely be able to help you correct your problems within the next three months,” said Zi Yuantian.

All the students looked at him very seriously. This teacher was at Inborn Level, so he was already overqualified to teach them.

“Right now, I will teach all of you a very basic martial arts technique, Bodybuilding Technique,” said Zi Yuantian.

“Bodybuilding Technique is very simple and doesn’t involve any complex stances. This is to help all of you improve your physical bodies, and it will help to build and train every inch of flesh and veins that you have. Over the next three months, this will change any poor or erroneous habits you have and merge your entire body into one being. Even if you don’t end up going up in cultivation level, it will definitely increase your attack strength and endurance by several times,” explained Zi Yuantian.

Ye Sheng’s eyes immediately lit up. Such a technique exists?

Ye Sheng wasn’t the only one who had reacted this way. Even Li Ying and Yang Kun had never heard of this technique before, so this was certainly a rather rare technique. Everyone immediately started paying attention and focused on Zi Yuantian.

Zi Yuantian demonstrated all the moves in front of everyone. The moves were fairly simple, and there were a total of 36 moves that could train the body’s muscles and meridian channels.

Ye Sheng tried to follow after Zi Yuantian. The first move required him to shake his calf and stomach to make a trembling sound, which would then start to move the thigh muscles and eventually cause the entire leg to shake.

This first move was already extremely difficult. The difficulty lay in trying to control the muscles of the body. It was easy to make the calf and stomach tremble, but making them tremble at an even and effective pace was very difficult, never mind making the thigh shake.

Everyone spent the entire day practicing this, and Ye Sheng was no different. Unlike how he had easily grasped Daoist techniques, this Bodybuilding Technique was terribly difficult for Ye Sheng.

Ye Sheng had been very lax about the control of his body muscles, and this exercise made him realize that his foundation was very weak.

He made a decision to pass on the Bodybuilding Technique to his dantian, Earth, so that all the Earthlings could train themselves along with him and learn with him how to make sure that their foundations were well laid.
