I will eventually become a god through sheer hard work.

Five days later, you must go to that newly appeared border area to carry out an exploration mission.

"The round of 32 begins the day after tomorrow. All 16 matches will be played in two days, followed by a day of rest..."

Xue Jing looked thoughtful.

'In that case, the second round, the round of 16, is in five days, right at the deadline. After that, I can immediately rush over to do the mission; I should have enough time… Perfect.'

After Jiang Siwei finished explaining the schedule, she reached into her briefcase and rummaged around for a bit, then took out a thick stack of documents and put them on the table. Because they were quite heavy, they made a loud thud.

"This is a detailed list of the contestants' past experiences that I prepared in advance. There are about fifty people in the list. Although the detailed list of contestants has not been announced yet, they should all be among these fifty. Xiao Jing, take a look. It won't hurt to learn more about your opponents."

Xue Jing glanced at her, picked up the thick stack of documents, and randomly flipped to a page.

The above is the information of a player named 'Gu Hongding', including his photo, age, fighting style, style of play, things to pay attention to when fighting him, past record, match details... and so on, very detailed.

It's clear that Jiang Siwei put a lot of effort into collecting these materials, and the format is very neat, making them concise and easy to understand at a glance.

"Sister Wei, you're so thoughtful," Xue Jing exclaimed.

Although this information is probably of little use to him.

However, Xue Jing remembered Jiang Siwei's serious and responsible attitude and ability towards work.

"I'm glad I could help you," Jiang Siwei said with a smile.

"By the way, the list will be announced tomorrow. After the draw ceremony, Fengcheng TV will come to interview the contestants. Also, a very famous variety show is currently filming, and they really welcome professional martial artists to appear on the show..."

Xue Jing waved his hand casually and said, "No, let's cancel them all."

Jiang Siwei's eyes revealed an expression of "I knew it."

This guy is definitely here to experience life, not to actually become a professional gamer and make money.

They have absolutely no intention of building a personal brand.

"After that……"

……

After chatting for a while longer about the competition, it was past 11 p.m.

Xue Jing found a well-reviewed restaurant and treated Jiang Siwei to a late-night snack. After that, she said goodbye and left.

After returning to the Yunlu Hotel, Xue Jing took the elevator directly to the floor where his room was located. Once there, he used his room card to open the door and went inside.

Wu Youqing had never treated him unfairly, and this time she booked an excellent suite as well.

The room was extremely spacious and luxuriously decorated. The floor was covered with a soft beige carpet, and the huge bed looked like it was for a king. It could comfortably accommodate at least five people at the same time. There was a separate study, a living room, and even a wall with a huge wine cabinet and bar where you could mix cocktails on the spot.

There's also a room filled with gym equipment.

Xue Jing put away his luggage, stretched, then went into the bathroom to take a shower, changed into a bathrobe, and lay down on the soft bed.

After a busy day, I finally have some time.

He calmed himself down and sank his mind into his consciousness.

Countless pixels rotated to form a scene, and an extremely spacious training ground with wine-red solid wood floors appeared in the consciousness space.

Then, Xue Jing, dressed in a white training uniform, slowly appeared.

He shook hands, sensed his body, and after confirming that the data was correct, he had a sudden thought.

The pixel blocks in front of you rotate and form a robust figure.

With waist-length hair, a rugged face, and bulging muscles, he was none other than Yin Muhu.

Although they had only known each other for a short time, he had just 'exchanged blows' with Yin Muhu. In that extremely precise contest of strength, he had already collected enough data to materialize Yin Muhu in his consciousness space.

Although he had never actually fought the opponent and therefore did not know the opponent's fighting style, fighting techniques, etc., he could not reproduce it 100%.

However, all Xue Jing needed was the unique application of energy from the Vajra Ruyi Hand. The 'Yin Muhu' technique he could currently manifest was more than enough.

"The unique features of any school of thought must be combined with the physical training methods developed by that school in order to achieve the greatest effect."

"The same applies to the Vajra Ruyi Hand. Its unique Ruyi energy circulation also requires the use of one's own school of martial arts to achieve such a powerful effect."

Xue Jing pondered.

"However, the Hidden Dragon Style of my cultivation is an all-around approach. It is also proficient in both hard and soft power. When it is used in conjunction with the Vajra Ruyi Hand, even if the effect is not good, it will not be too bad."

His gaze fell upon the 'Yin Mu Hu' in front of him.

The character created by the Lv5-level [Contemplation - True] is quite lifelike and seems to have a certain degree of consciousness.

Noticing Xue Jing's gaze, Yin Muhu nodded and reached out his fan-like hand to grasp Xue Jing's shoulder.

An extremely hard force pierced Xue Jing's flesh from his fingertips.

Xue Jing did not take any defensive measures, but instead endured the damage from this force completely with his pure, untouched physical body.

That was an extremely pure, unadulterated, and powerful force.

Generally speaking, while martial arts practitioners distinguish between hard and soft power, it is not strictly defined to the point of being '100% hard' or '100% soft'.

For example, the Hidden Dragon Style's killing move, Shaking Starfire, although it is a soft move, actually incorporates a little bit of hard force as a guide.

Without that bit of force as a signal of attack, if it's completely soft, then it's a purely 'kind move' with no aggression whatsoever. Theoretically, it probably couldn't even kill an ant.

Moreover, the difficulty is unimaginable; achieving 100% gentleness and 100% strength is almost impossible for either.

However, the force that entered Xue Jing's body was different.

That was pure steel.

Starting from his shoulders, the wounds spread downwards, leaving countless bloody holes in Xue Jing's skin.

As if pierced by an extremely sharp and thick steel needle, the fierce and powerful force wreaked havoc on Xue Jing's body.

"Pure hardness without any softness should theoretically be impossible to shape, not even by changing the slightest shape. This kind of force will remain exactly as it is when it is unleashed."

"However, the powerful force unleashed by the Vajra Ruyi Hand can be shaped at will after entering my body, transforming into blades, needles... It's simply incomprehensible."

Xue Jing ignored the sharp pain in his shoulder and fell into deep thought.

This almost shattered his understanding of the martial arts system to date.

"Come again."

After recovering from his injuries, Xue Jing spoke to Yin Muhu.

The latter nodded, and this time changed his approach, throwing a punch at Xue Jing's stomach.

The higher the proportion of strength in a fist, the greater the impact when it is thrown. The ultimate fist makes no compromise with air resistance and does not follow the airflow at all. When a punch is thrown, the strong air friction creates a huge white air wave that stretches for several meters.

"Bang!!"

A fist the size of a clay pot slammed into Xue Jing's stomach, producing a deafening thud. Xue Jing's belly was almost pierced, revealing a large, bloody hole. He was sent flying dozens of meters, crashing into the wall of the training ground and embedding himself deeply, leaving a human-shaped dent in the wall.

Thick, fragrant blood, sparkling like rubies, gushed from Xue Jing's mouth. He paid no attention to it, instead carefully savoring and feeling every detail of the punch.

His willpower grew stronger day by day, and even pain that would make an ordinary person faint on the spot was nothing to him, and could not interfere with his clear consciousness in the slightest.

Xue Jing opened his eyes only after he had memorized the feeling and every detail of that punch.

"Come again!"

boom!

"Come again!"

puff……

"Come again!"

……

Countless times, countless times, he endured the powerful blows of Yin Mu Hu's Vajra Ruyi Hand.

Half of his waist was severed by a hand chop, his heart was pierced by a finger, and he was kicked into the air...

Xue Jing experienced and comprehended the mysteries of the Vajra Ruyi Hand from countless angles and in countless parts.

"puff--"

As a blow pierced his lower back, Xue Jing felt the countless subtle forces churning and tearing at his internal organs, and a sense of enlightenment appeared in his eyes.

"The ultimate strength is the ultimate softness... Excessive strength leads to breakage..."

He stroked his chin, pondering, "I think I understand..."

"I see. It turns out that the principle is actually surprisingly simple."

The pixels rotated, filling his body and healing his injuries.

Xue Jing stretched out his palm, and a piece of transparent glass appeared in his palm.

He gripped it tightly, and the glass shattered instantly.

"Glass is an extremely hard material; it will shatter with the slightest bend and cannot be kneaded or shaped at all. Its pure rigidity is like that of glass."

"And the hardest of the hardest is also the most fragile of the hardest; the hardest of the hardest is the most brittle!"

It will shatter at the slightest touch.

Xue Jing kneaded the glass shards in his palm, and when he unfolded them again, all that remained was a pile of glass powder.

"The immense force that shatters is like glass turning into glass powder... Glass powder can naturally be molded into any shape at will!"

"The secret of the Vajra Ruyi Hand technique lies in this: first, pure hard force is pulverized into powder, and then this 'powdered force' is controlled to circulate at will..."

"In this way, this extremely strong force is even more malleable than the soft force."

Xue Jing struck a childish pose, covering his face with one hand, his pupils turning silver-white, and looked at Yin Muhu.

"I have seen through everything."

"You have no secrets before these eyes."
