Elf: How do you cultivate immortality in the elf world?

Chapter 389 Do you even know what it means to keep the good stuff within the family?

However, one thing is certain: he definitely can't produce the same level of visual appeal as Vi and Riggs.

If you lie on the field, the outcome will be a pure numerical crushing victory.

Rig ran over and punched him, but he didn't flinch. Then Rig slapped him to end the fight.

Or Rig was still gesturing when a sword beam pierced through his chest, and the referee announced that he had committed a foul because he had used a third Pokémon.

"However, Wei's 'Water Flow Rock Shattering Fist' is indeed quite something; he has actually replicated a popular fist technique." Lu Li secretly admired.

(P.S.: The author made a mistake in the previous chapter. Xiong's apprentice should have used Water Flow Continuous Strike, while Wei used Water Flow Rock Shattering Fist.)
On the playing field.

"Super Strength! Don't let it lead you by the nose! Earthquake!" Rig roared, seizing a brief opening after a fierce struggle.

He suddenly raised his foot and stomped it down on the ground like a giant elephant! He was going to break the stalemate with an area-of-effect attack!

Upon receiving the order, the monstrous strength simultaneously abandoned its pursuit of the bear apprentice with all four arms and slammed them hard into the ground!
Because of its size, the earthquake generated by Machamp is almost more powerful than the earthquake used by Pokémon of the same level.

Rumble!
The entire arena trembled violently as a raging Ground-type energy, centered on Machamp and Riggle, spread wildly outwards like a shockwave! The bluestone floor shattered inch by inch, and dust billowed into the sky! This was an indiscriminate area-of-effect attack!
Faced with such a terrifying earthquake, Wei's expression changed.

What's the point of using area-of-effect attacks? That's not melee at all!
"Jump!" Vi and Xiong's thoughts were perfectly synchronized at this moment. Almost the instant Rig lifted his foot and slammed it into the ground with superhuman strength, Vi reacted.

Wei's body seemed weightless as she rose from the ground, executing a beautiful backflip into the air. Xiong's apprentice displayed astonishing jumping ability, his small body soaring into the sky like a cannonball, narrowly avoiding the devastating shockwave.

However, this was also part of Rig's plan!

"This is the moment we've been waiting for! Super Strength, lock onto Bear Apprentice, Explosive Fist!" A smug look of triumph flashed in Rig's eyes.

Without pausing after landing, Rig charged towards the spot where Vi was about to land like a cannonball, his massive fist brimming with power, blocking all possible landing points for her.

"Wei! It's over! Your boxing technique is indeed amazing, but it's a pity you're still too young."

The bear apprentice in the air became the perfect target. The monstrous force grinned, and its four iron fists, gleaming with blinding white light, unleashed a terrifying power capable of shattering everything, like four heavy cannons simultaneously blasting at the bear apprentice who had no leverage in the air! The violent energy made the air itself groan.

Below, Wei had just landed when she was met with Rigg's deadly punch, which blocked all her escape routes! Her feet hadn't even settled properly, her old strength had dissipated, and she had nowhere to put her weight on.

Desperate situation!

Wei showed no panic. She looked at her disciple Xiong, who was locked in the air by four destructive fist beams, and instead, a resolute smile appeared on her lips.

"Bear disciple! Believe in your martial arts!" Vi shouted, not as a command, but as a gesture similar to Ash's divine skill—stand up.

The bear apprentice in the air sensed Wei's unwavering trust, and at this critical moment, its eyes blazed with an unprecedented light! It was not fear, but a desire to transcend limits.

Its small body twisted violently in the air, ignoring the four fists that were powerful enough to shatter steel, and poured all its spirit, will and energy into its own fists!

Like flowing water, it is not as immovable as a rock; the flow of water strives for a continuous stream.

The bear apprentice's fist shone with an unprecedented, extremely refined blue-white light, as if he were holding a miniature star!

Instead of defending, Xiong's apprentice transformed all his power into a waterfall of silver water from the heavens, ignoring the explosive punch that was hurtling towards him with unwavering determination.

"The water flows and strikes, breaking rocks!"

"What?" Rig and Guai Li were both shocked. They hadn't expected that their bear apprentice would choose such a suicidal fighting style in this desperate situation.

Wei moved at the same instant! Facing Rig's deadly punch that blocked her retreat, she did not try to dodge the attack that was impossible to avoid.

Instead of retreating, her body moved forward, like a waterfall cascading down, crashing into Rig's arms in an almost self-destructive manner.

Her hands moved like a continuous stream, delivering hundreds and thousands of jabs in the blink of an eye.

"The Ultimate Technique of Flowing Water Rock-Shattering Fist: Selflessness and Unceasing Flow!"

This is a terrifying move that abandons defense, forgoes everything, and instantly unleashes all power and speed to destroy the opponent's defense.

Like firecrackers exploding continuously,

Two deafening explosions erupted almost simultaneously!

Above the arena, two of the four explosive punches from the monstrous strength, powerful enough to split mountains, grazed past the bear apprentice's body, the violent energy tearing apart some of its fur and leaving burn marks; the other two punches landed solidly on its small body! The bear apprentice was sent flying like a kite with a broken string.

However, in the instant before it was knocked away, its "Water Flow Rock Smash Fist," which contained all its will and power, also landed on the monster's body.

"Ugh~ Ah!!"

The monstrous body suddenly stiffened, and the immense pain caused it to let out a muffled roar. The movements of its four arms instantly froze, and its massive body actually staggered back two steps.

Below the arena, Wei's body was as if hit by a high-speed train, blasted away by the terrifying shockwave of Rigg's punch, crashing heavily to the ground and rolling several times before stopping. A trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and he felt a sharp pain in his arm, clearly suffering a serious concussion injury.

But Rigg's situation was equally dire! Vina's desperate technique precisely blocked the force of his punches and even launched what could be described as a miraculous counterattack.

The Flowing Water Shattering Rock Fist is like the flowing water in a river, always moving forward. The continuous flow of water can either turn into a raging flood that destroys everything, or into a trickle that nourishes all things.

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated, leaving the site in a mess.

The monstrous creature clutched its throbbing jaw, its eyes glazed over, its massive body swaying precariously. It was clearly severely injured and temporarily incapacitated.

The bear apprentice lay in the distance, its small body twitching slightly, covered in grazes and charred marks from the explosive punches. It struggled to stand up.

In the center of the field, Wei knelt on one knee, supporting himself with one hand, breathing heavily. The bloodstains at the corner of his mouth were particularly glaring in the setting sun, and every breath aggravated the pain in his chest and abdomen.

Rig, clutching his throbbing wrist and chin, was also breathing heavily, looking at his tenacious opponent with a complicated expression, and then at the incapacitated monster.

“Water Flow Rock Shattering Fist…” Rig clenched his fists. He couldn’t understand why such a fist technique existed in the world.

It is a fist technique that is unstoppable yet also has unimaginable defense. The water flow can destroy everything, but it can also continuously resist everything.

This is the way of fighting.

"boom!"

Rig fell heavily onto the playing field.

Vi's Water Smash also has extremely terrifying internal destructive power. When he chose to defend against Water Smash, the outcome of the match was already decided.

Seeing Rig and Mighty lying motionless on the ground, the referee raised his right hand high: "Rig and Mighty are both incapacitated! This match—"

The referee paused, his gaze sweeping over Wei, who, despite his injury, still stood tall, and Xiong, who, despite the excruciating pain, was still trying to get up.

"—The victors are Wei and Xiong's apprentices!"

Wei took a deep breath, suppressing her surging blood and qi, and revealed a blood-stained yet incredibly bright smile.

"I did it! Lu Li, I did it!" Wei clenched her fists, looking excitedly at her apprentice Xiong.

Feel!

Under the influence of the bond, Vi finally sensed the premonition that her bear apprentice was about to evolve.

They had finally found the direction for the bear apprentice's evolution. Both the human and the elf were filled with barely suppressed joy.

Lu Li, who was in the private room, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Ultimately, Xiong's apprentice lacked combat experience; normally, he shouldn't have had such a difficult time.

Although the bear apprentice is just a mythical beast cub, its peak champion-level strength is no joke, especially with the addition of the Water Stream Rock Smash Fist.

If he had more combat experience, Xiong's apprentice would only have been injured, not seriously wounded like he is now.

Meanwhile, in another top-tier private box.

As the organizer, Gai Lie also came to the scene in person.

"That one's here too?" Gai Lie asked in a low voice.

Gai Xiong nodded and explained, "That person must have acted on a whim."

Gai Lie turned to look at his son and smiled gently, "How was it? Didn't even make it into the top three."

Gai Xiong slumped onto the sofa and replied, "To be honest, it's a bit bad. Rig is better than me, whether it's training Pokémon or fighting skills."

"I just didn't expect that Rig would actually lose to Vi." Gai Xiong looked at Vi on the screen with a complicated expression.

The bear apprentice was just a cub of a divine beast, and its base stats were nowhere near as high as Machamp's. In addition, the two sides were not on the same level in terms of combat experience.

Gai Xiong thought Rig was a sure winner, but Rig actually lost, and both the trainer and the Pokémon lost.

Gai Xiong asked thoughtfully, "The Flowing Water Shattering Rock Fist, how come we've never heard of this fist technique before?"

"Such a powerful fist technique, if it had existed for a long time, it would have been famous throughout the entire fighting world by now. This must be a new fist technique created by some master," Gai Lie guessed.

“The match is over, let’s go pay that person a visit.” After saying that, Gai Lie stood up and walked towards the door.

Gai Xiong didn't really want to face that god-level trainer who was younger than him but had a higher status.

But since his father had spoken, and Wei was still someone else's subordinate, Gai Xiong finally followed slowly.

Meanwhile, Lu Li silently closed his Immortal Eye.

good news.

The reason why the bear apprentice could never evolve into a god has been found.

bad news.

Becoming a god was far more difficult for Xiong's apprentice than he had imagined.

The birth of gods in the elven world, while not closely related to beliefs, is greatly related to the concepts arising from certain existences of life in this world.

In other words, if Xiong's apprentice wants to advance to the level of a Combo-style Martial Arts Bear Master, he must promote the Flowing Water Rock-Smashing Fist. Once the Flowing Water Rock-Smashing Fist becomes known to the world to a certain extent, Xiong's apprentice will be able to evolve naturally.

To put it simply, it's about spreading the renowned reputation of the Flowing Water Rock-Shattering Fist. Master Xiong has now mastered the Flowing Water Rock-Shattering Fist to an extremely profound level.

One of the two conditions has been met, so only the second one remains.

Lu Li didn't have the energy to deal with this matter for the time being, so he decided to let Wei handle it herself after the competition.

Given his current status and strength, Lu Li believed the alliance would be happy to give him that face.

Just as Lu Li was pondering how to spread the Flowing Water Rock Shattering Fist style, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Come in," Lu Li said.

As the door opened, a middle-aged man, probably in his fifties, led a young man inside.

"Hello, Mr. Lu Li, I am Gai Lie and my son Gai Xiong have come to pay a visit." Gai Lie said respectfully.

"Are you the head of the Gai family, sir?" Lu Li asked in return.

Gai Lie nodded with a smile.

"Please have a seat." Lu Li gestured to the sofa next to him.

After everyone was seated, Lu Li asked curiously, "What business does Patriarch Gai have with me?"

As the saying goes, one doesn't visit a temple without a reason, and Lu Li didn't believe that the other party really wanted to just pay a simple visit.

Gai Lie didn't hide anything, after all, he had a purpose in visiting Lu Li, and besides, Gai Lie was a fighter, so his style of doing things was quite straightforward.

"Is that so? I heard that Miss Wei is one of your subordinates?"

Lu Li nodded: "To be precise, he is a confidant."

Gai Lie said directly, "I want to propose marriage for my son, and the betrothal gift is a fighting-type divine item."

Lu Li frowned when he heard this.

Lu Li almost blurted out, "You're not worthy!"

However, considering the issue of saving face for both parties, Lu Li could only politely decline, saying, "Wei is just my subordinate, and it's not my place to decide her marriage. Besides, that girl Wei probably doesn't have any desire to get married anytime soon."

Gai Lie, assuming Lu Li's reason was the bear apprentice, explained, "You should also know why we came to propose marriage. If it's because of the divine beast cub, you can rest assured that our Gai family can still acquire a bear apprentice through our own abilities."

"This has nothing to do with Xiong's apprentice. There's no point in discussing this, and besides..."

After a pause, Lu Li asked meaningfully, "Patriarch Gai, what makes you think I would let the divine beast cubs escape? Have you ever heard the old saying, 'Don't let the good stuff go to outsiders' fields'?"

"Gan!"

Gai Xiong, who was standing nearby, almost cursed when he heard this.

If the intelligence is correct, this bastard already has Yao Yifei, and is also entangled with the one from the Ekaterina family, as well as the Long family, and that dojo master's daughter...

Can you handle so many people?
Although Gai Xiong only saw muscles and fighting, it was precisely because of this that he felt Lu Li's body couldn't take it.

After all, Lu Li is the type of person who looks slim in clothes, and the Gai family had analyzed this before.

However, the analysis results show that the probability of Lu Li having such thoughts is only about 20%, after all, he already has enough women around him, and Wei, apart from Xiong's apprentice, has nothing outstanding.

Upon hearing this, Gai Lie sighed helplessly: "In that case, we've disturbed you."

The Du family couldn't defeat Lu Li, and the Gai family wasn't much stronger either. Although the Fighting-type legendary beast was very tempting, it was already Lu Li's possession.

Gai Lie decisively took his son and left.

After leaving the room, Gai Xiong couldn't help but complain, "Dad, what do we do now?"
