We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

Chapter 216 Concession
Whoosh!
With a sharp whooshing sound, Shen Bailian, enveloped in dense elemental energy, rapidly traversed Bozhou City, his speed climbing to two hundred meters per second.

He looked down and everything in the commoners' district of Bozhou City was clearly reflected in his eyes. The tall buildings looked like toys, small and fragile.

However, just as Shen Bailian was enjoying this exhilarating feeling...

suddenly.

"Warning! Warning! Warning!"

"Respected Transcendent Realm Martial Artist, because your flight speed is too fast, you have violated Article 23 of Section 3 of the Bor State Traffic Law... Please slow down immediately, stay where you are, wait for the arrival of law enforcement officers, and cooperate with them."

"I repeat myself, sir..."

As the sound rang out, several SkyEye surveillance drones immediately took off with a barely perceptible roar, their searchlights constantly focused on the boy's body.

Furthermore, its laser weapons are ready to be launched and adjusted at any time, and can deliver a fatal blow at any moment.

"They actually overlooked this." Shen Bailian was startled when he heard the cold, intelligent machine voice in his ear and the threatening sounds coming from the drone.

Because it is a small border town, and the strongest person in Bozhou City is only Kong Chaowu, a master of the Opening Sea Realm, there are naturally speed limit sensors in the sky.

This principle applies to every border town, in order to prevent attacks by ferocious beasts.

In a short while, Shen Bailian was steadily hovering hundreds of meters in the air, the cold night wind blowing his black hair, which fluttered and scattered.

Although those drones and the laser weapons on them posed virtually no threat to him, he did not want to easily cross the legal line.

This is a matter of principle.

Below Shen Bailian.

"Fuck!"

"Look! Someone is standing in mid-air, seemingly floating on air!"

"It's a Transcendent Realm expert! It must be a Transcendent Realm expert! Only experts at the late Transcendent Realm or above could hover so easily and comfortably high in the sky..."

Although it was nearing midnight, this time of day was still too early for students, especially those majoring in martial arts; for hardworking people, it was just the start of their workday.

So, in just a few seconds, a passerby glanced up and saw the figure being focused by the lights.

However, due to the extremely high altitude and the fact that the physical abilities of these passersby were only at level 1.0 or 2.0, they could not see the figure's specific appearance at all.

However, this did not dampen the interest of passersby in taking photos and videos, because it was extremely rare to see a late-stage Transcendent Realm expert who could fly for an extended period of time in a small border town like Bozhou City.

"Is that the demeanor of a late-stage Transcendent Realm expert? Soaring through the sky, with the earth beneath his feet... However, this person must be a Transcendent Realm expert from out of town."

“I think so too. If he were local, he probably wouldn’t be so arrogant. But I feel like this person is familiar to me.” Huang Xu and Gao Lei stood side by side. Huang Xu took out a pair of binoculars from his storage ring to get a clearer view.

Although he couldn't see it clearly, for some reason, he felt a faint sense of familiarity with that figure.

"Ew~" Upon hearing this, Gao Lei immediately stepped aside, looking at the other person with disdain, and said, "What kind of era is this for flirting? Besides, the other person is a man."

"Aren't you afraid that if the other person hears this, they'll just punch you to pieces!"

"Go to hell!" After spending several months together, although they had become quite familiar with each other, Huang Xu still couldn't stand Gao Lei's somewhat eccentric personality.

"Ah Peng, what do you think?"

After Huang Xu finished cursing, he immediately felt much more relaxed, as if most of the pressure of a day's cultivation had dissipated. He then turned to look at the boy next to him, who was over 1.9 meters tall and had a broad back and thick arms.

"I can't see clearly, I don't know." Wei Peng glanced up and said directly, "It's normal for you to feel familiar with them. Isn't your father a businessman? You might have run into a Transcendent Realm expert from out of town when you attend social events."

After speaking, he withdrew his gaze, his weak spiritual energy sinking down to carefully feel his own muscles, bones, and flesh, and let out a barely perceptible sigh.

He clearly seemed distracted.

"I'm going home now. I have to continue my cultivation tomorrow. Bye-bye." Wei Peng said to Huang Xu and Gao Lei, and then turned and walked home without waiting for their response.

"I need to hurry back to cultivate too. Old Huang, A Peng, see you tomorrow." Gao Lei was also suddenly awakened by these words. He suddenly remembered that he had not yet completed his cultivation task for today.

Before he could finish speaking, he rushed into the crowd, weaving through it nimbly. In no time, he had completely disappeared into the sea of ​​people.

"Is that so? But why do I always feel like it's not like that?" Huang Xu watched the two leave, not taking it to heart.

Compared to Gao Lei and Wei Peng, especially the latter, he had ample natural resources due to his family background, so the pressure of cultivation was not as great, and his martial arts talent was even better.

His physical fitness has now reached level 7.4, and breaking through to level 7.5 before the martial arts college entrance examination is basically a certainty.

Huang Xu turned his head and continued to look at the figure in the sky. He frowned slightly. Although his mental strength was much stronger than Wei Peng and Gao Lei's.

However, his current mental strength is still at the apprentice stage of mental master, and his perception distance is only a few dozen meters. There is still an unreachable distance to the hundreds of meters in the sky.

And just then.

"Whoosh!" With a gust of wind, a man in a trench coat flashed across the sky, and behind him was a graceful woman in warrior armor.

Then, as they were nearing their destination, the two gradually slowed down and finally came to a steady stop in front of the man illuminated by the lights.

"He was arrested for speeding."

"They're here, they're here, the law enforcer is here."

"Holy crap?! The enforcer who came is actually our city's enforcement team captain, Lord Yang Wu! It seems that person's martial arts realm is indeed more than just the late stage of the Transcendent Realm!" Upon seeing this, the atmosphere among the crowd on the ground below was ignited once again, and exclamations of surprise rang out.

Many passersby who were about to leave stopped in their tracks, held their breath, and stared intently at the sky, afraid of missing even the slightest detail.

It's important to understand that the law enforcement officers are backed by the Great Xia Kingdom and represent its authority. So, generally speaking, in such situations, the appearance of one law enforcement officer is enough to resolve the matter.

However, the one enforcing the law now is Yang Wu, the captain of the Bozhou City law enforcement team who has recently been making waves. Because of his peak Transcendent Realm martial arts level, he can be considered invincible when Kong Chaowu is not around.

Therefore, its law enforcement style has always been extremely strict.

His beautiful follower, Xiaoqing, is also a powerful cultivator who has just entered the Transcendent Realm. It is said that the two often carried out missions together in their early years.

Their teamwork skills go without saying.

Combined, even a strong person in the early stage of the Sea Opening Realm could hold out for a move or two until Kong Chaowu arrived.

Such a powerful combination appearing together at this time to carry out a mission—what does this signify?
This means that the man in the sky is extremely dangerous and has extremely strong combat power, which is why the captain of the law enforcement team and Xiao Qing had to be summoned together.

However, many passersby could understand, after all, the man in the sky was a peak Transcendent Realm expert.

In Bozhou City, in terms of martial arts realm, the peak of the Transcendent Realm is basically enough to stand firmly in the first group and have the qualifications to touch the ceiling.

Such a strong person has an extremely strong sense of self-respect. Being arrested in front of such a large crowd is both morally and legally unacceptable and a loss of face.

Yang Wu's enforcement style has always been to never let anyone off the hook.

At this moment, the two were completely at odds.

For passersby, after a busy day, there's something to watch: a battle between two peak Transcendent Realm experts—just thinking about it is exciting.

As for whether there is any danger?

This is within Bozhou City, where there is Kong Chaowu, a veteran expert at the Opening Sea Realm. If he wanted to, not only would a peak Transcendent Realm expert, but even an early Opening Sea Realm expert wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.

It's just that experts of this level wouldn't, and couldn't, easily make a move.

As time passed, some sharp-eyed passersby noticed that Yang Wu and Xiao Qing not only showed no signs of making a move, but also became increasingly respectful to the unknown expert.

Respectfully?

"Ah? He bowed! Lord Yang Wu actually yielded! What's going on? Who exactly is that 'outsider'? How come he can even overpower Lord Yang Wu in Bozhou City?"

"They're gone? That guy was just let go?!"

Above the sky, with a deafening explosion, the mysterious man who was surrounded by the Sky Eye drones vanished from his spot in an instant.

They swaggered off towards the outskirts of the city.

From the moment Yang Wu arrived until the end, it only took a little over ten seconds, but the development of events had already far exceeded the expectations of many working-class people.

"It's gone. It's gone."

"Go back to your own home, go back to your own mother."

"Go back and rest quickly, you all have to go to work at six o'clock tomorrow morning."

"What?! You went to work at six in the morning..." Upon seeing this, the passersby below all showed a hint of disappointment in their eyes.

Everyone went their separate ways home, and the once crowded streets became deserted in less than a minute. The bustling border town was once again filled with the cries of individual vendors.

And above the sky.

"Unexpected, truly unbelievable." Xiaoqing's graceful figure stood in the void, silently watching the figure disappear from sight. Her black eyes flickered with an inexplicable light. After a long silence, she finally couldn't help but sigh:
"I never expected that the fledgling eagle No. 25 would grow to such a level in less than a year and even become a top martial arts prodigy recognized by the Great Xia government."

"You really can't judge a book by its cover."

Xiaoqing's words contained surprise and envy... but more than anything, they conveyed a sense of loneliness.

Although she hoped that more and more top experts would emerge in the Great Xia, when she was actually surpassed by someone who came later, especially when there was no adult teenager in the Great Xia legal system who could surpass her, she suddenly felt much older.

“Yes, life is unpredictable, and things always turn out in ways that are beyond our expectations.” Yang Wu nodded in agreement.

His feelings were more intense than Xiaoqing's.

Back in April and May, Yang Wu was a powerful figure who looked down on the young man from a high place. At that time, the young man was like an ant in his eyes, someone he could destroy with a wave of his hand.

but now?

The positions of the two have undergone earth-shattering changes. Yang Wu, a well-known Transcendent Realm expert, has become the one who can only look up to the other.

He couldn't even last a single round against Shen Bailian.

……

tread!tread!tread!
Wei Peng hurried through the deserted alleys, heading home while also exercising his body. Although the effect was extremely small, it added up to a considerable number over time.

The nearly 200-kilogram body made only a slight sound when it stepped on the cement ground.

After more than half a year of arduous training, his physical fitness has reached an astonishing level of 7.2, and his physique has undergone tremendous changes compared to before.

Just by standing there, he seemed to be a small mountain, pressing down on people's minds. Within a few meters, no passerby dared to approach him.

There was nothing that could be done about it. In fact, by November, Wei Peng's martial arts potential had been almost completely exhausted.

If the quality of bones, flesh, and muscles alone is insufficient, then one can only consume rare and precious materials to increase the quantity. After breaking through to the Life-Establishing Realm, one can recover.

The vast majority of martial arts students do this.

At the same time, this is also a last resort, in order to lay a solid foundation in martial arts during the apprentice stage, so as to prepare for the leapfrog improvement after implanting the Dragon Gate Seed.

It can be said that Wei Peng's physical fitness has improved to level 7.2 at this stage, which is already far ahead among the tens of thousands of martial arts students in Bozhou.

but.

"hu~hu~"

"Is this all I can achieve in my life?" Wei Peng felt a pang of sadness and despair for the future as he reflected on his condition.

Although he was already very strong.

However, compared to his goals, it was utterly inadequate. If he could only achieve this much, how could he possibly maintain an equal relationship with Shen Bailian in the future?

After a year of training, Wei Peng not only improved his physical fitness level, but also his mental strength. He saw too much in his cultivation life.

"But I don't want to stop here!"

Wei Peng gasped for breath, staring at the high wall ahead. He leaped over it, and as he soared through the air, a text from his textbook flashed through his mind—

"Young Runtu".
