Can diligence compensate for lack of talent? But I'm a martial arts genius!

"Hmph... Master Wang is a genuine Divine Strength Realm martial artist."

"This Mr. Niu is indeed skilled, but he's only at the level of a mere cultivator; he couldn't possibly be a match for Hall Master Wang!"

Both the man in gray and the man in black smiled slightly upon seeing this.

As the head of the Fuhu Hall of the Iron Dragon Society, Wang Fuhu himself is an outstanding martial arts expert. He successfully entered the Divine Power Realm a few years ago and is a pillar of the Iron Dragon Society.

At the Divine Strength Realm, one possesses the strength of a thousand jin in a single arm, capable of swinging a hundred-jin weight as a weapon. They can move freely while wearing iron armor, resembling a ferocious humanoid beast. Reaching this level would earn them considerable renown within Dafeng County! They are far beyond the reach of any martial artist at the Refining Realm!

"Mr. Niu, if this is all the strength you have, it won't satisfy me!"

With a single punch, Wang Fuhu forced Su Changqing back. His eyes, illuminated by the moonlight, radiated a captivating divine power, and his voice boomed.

Wang Fuhu came in person, determined to find out who this Mr. Niu really was and whether he was an enemy or friend of the Iron Dragon Society.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Fuhu moved again, unleashing a powerful punch that shattered the air. It was like a ferocious tiger ready to devour its prey, its ferocity terrifying. A strike from a martial artist at the Divine Power Realm was something that ordinary martial artists simply could not withstand or contend with.

Hard Qigong!

But facing Wang Fuhu's domineering and fierce punch, Su Changqing showed no fear whatsoever. His eyes blazed with fierce fighting spirit, and he took a deep breath, causing his blood and qi to boil rapidly.

"Click-clack!"

A surge of powerful qi and blood filled his muscles and bones, causing Su Changqing's body to crackle like popping beans. His muscles bulged, and his entire body swelled up, becoming extremely robust. A powerful aura swept over you!

"Bang!"

The next instant, Wang Fuhu's heavy fist slammed into Su Changqing's chest, producing a dull thud, like an iron hammer hitting a drumhead, making everyone's heart tremble involuntarily.

"What?"

Wang Fuhu was startled. The scenario he had imagined—shattering Su Changqing's bones—did not happen. In his perception, his fist did not land on flesh and blood, but rather felt as if it had struck a thick, solid wall of bronze and iron!

Su Changqing's feet gripped the ground tightly, causing the ground beneath him to crack and rocks to tumble, but he withstood Wang Fuhu's attack without taking a single step back!

The fifth level of hard qigong is the pinnacle of skill. By cultivating it to this level, Su Changqing can transform his qi and blood into a force that strengthens his body's functions, injecting it into his muscles and bones, greatly enhancing his physique and giving him a body with almost copper skin and iron bones.

By activating his hard qigong, Su Changqing withstood Wang Fuhu's punch, only feeling some pain in his chest and not suffering much damage!

"He withstood a punch from me, a martial artist at the Divine Strength Realm? This person has actually cultivated his external martial arts to such a level?"

Wang Fuhu's lips twitched slightly, realizing that Su Changqing not only had extremely high attainments in boxing, but also practiced external martial arts, reaching a level that was difficult for ordinary people to achieve!

"You too... take this punch!"

With his blood and qi filling his entire body, Su Changqing became excited and passionate. He let out a low roar that shook the mountains and forests, clenched his five fingers into a fist, and unleashed a powerful earth-shaking strike. His fist tore through the air, causing the surrounding air to whistle and explode. His violent divine power overflowed from his body.

"Bang!"

A powerful punch slammed into Wang Fuhu's chest, and a surge of intense, shocking force erupted instantly.

"Snap!"

Even with Wang Fuhu's abilities, it felt as if he had been struck in the chest by a charging bull. A sharp pain spread through him, and his tall and burly body was thrown backward until his back smashed into a maple tree as thick as a bowl in the maple forest, breaking it in two. Only then did he stop his retreat!

"Master Wang!"

The two Iron Dragon Society warriors couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, never expecting that they, as warriors at the Divine Power Realm, would be sent flying back by this "Mr. Bull".

"Did Mr. Niu hide his true strength when he fought us back then?"

Liu Wen and Liu Wu, members of the Liu family watching from afar, stared wide-eyed, a sense of horror rising within them.

More than a year ago, the two helped the Tiger Gang fight against Su Changqing. As a result, they were defeated by Su Changqing and fled in a sorry state. They even thought that they had been careless and that was why they were defeated.

But now, seeing Su Changqing's astonishing punch that repelled the Divine Power Realm warrior, they broke out in a cold sweat. If it were them, they would have broken bones and died on the spot under this blow. The other party hadn't been serious when he attacked them before!

Of course, they didn't know that Su Changqing hadn't held back at the time. It's just that with his talent and hard work, his strength was already much stronger than it had been a year or so ago!

"As expected of a martial artist at the Divine Strength Realm... My Raging Bull Fist, enhanced by hard qigong, could shatter even a rock, yet Wang Fuhu suffered hardly any injuries. His physique is truly extraordinary!"

Su Changqing was secretly amazed that Wang Fuhu was defeated with a single punch.

At the Divine Power Realm, the body undergoes a second development, and the physique is so strong that it can fight lions and tigers with bare hands. Even after being punched by Su Changqing, it was not seriously injured!

"You certainly didn't disappoint me... Let's do it again!"

Wang Fuhu circulated his qi and blood to soothe the pain in his chest. He stared intently at Su Changqing and let out a roar. Facing such a powerful enemy, he, as a martial artist, was also filled with passion.

"boom!"

Wang Fuhu thrust his back, splitting half of the tree trunk behind him, and used the force to pounce again, like a vicious tiger pouncing on its prey.

Raging Bull Fist!

With his black hair flying wildly, Su Changqing's feet sank into the ground as he charged towards Wang Fuhu with an unstoppable and indomitable momentum!

"Boom!"

The two collided like two giant beasts, and in an instant, a strong wind howled, swirling the fallen leaves on the ground and causing the nearby ground to tremble.

"kill!"

After a single clash, both instantly changed tactics, unleashing punches, palm strikes, and kicks at each other, neither giving an inch!

"Bang bang bang!"

A series of collisions erupted, the force of which sent shards of stone flying like bullets in all directions. Ordinary people could be accidentally injured even if they got close to the area where the two were fighting!

"Is this what a battle between martial artists at the Divine Power Realm looks like? It's like two humanoid beasts!"

The many martial artists who witnessed this battle were all filled with a sense of dread.

A warrior at the Divine Power Realm, if clad in armor, is a formidable general capable of taking on a hundred enemies in a large-scale military battlefield!

The battle in the arena continued. As a martial artist of the Divine Strength Realm, Wang Fuhu possessed a strength of over a thousand catties in one arm. When he unleashed his full power, he resembled a ferocious tiger in human form. Su Changqing's hard qigong gave him the ability to have a body of copper and iron. Combined with his unparalleled Mangniu Fist, he fought against Wang Fuhu without being at a disadvantage.

"This Mr. Niu... is very strong. He is proficient in hard martial arts. Even my punches, as a martial artist at the Divine Strength Realm, cannot cause him serious injury... If this fight continues, the outcome is uncertain! Just who is this person? He seems to have appeared out of nowhere!"

Wang Fuhu felt very heavy-hearted.

"Mr. Niu" is extremely mysterious, seemingly only active in the vicinity of Woniu Town. However, he is extremely powerful and is suspected of being involved in the disappearance of Iron Dragon Society warriors, which is why Wang Fuhu came in person.

However, the opponent's strength was even greater than expected, and he was able to rival a martial artist like himself who had entered the Divine Power Realm!

"Bang!"

The two clashed head-on once again. Amidst the swirling wind, Wang Fuhu stopped attacking and instead used the force to leap backward, jumping out of the battle circle.

Wang Fuhu's smile returned, and he cupped his hands in a respectful gesture, saying, "Mr. Niu, your skill is truly admirable. To avoid any unpleasantness, let's end our sparring here!"

Wang Fuhu knew in his heart that his opponent's strength was not something he could easily defeat. If they continued to fight, the outcome would be uncertain, and even if he won, he might pay a heavy price!

Ultimately, the Iron Dragon Society only suspected that "Mr. Niu" was related to the disappearance of Iron Dragon Society warriors; they were not absolutely certain that it was him.

If you still fight to the death with the other party under such circumstances, wouldn't that make others who have no grudge against the Iron Dragon Society become enemies?

Therefore, Wang Fuhu initially declared that he would spar with Su Changqing, stopping short of a duel. However, upon realizing that his opponent was exceptionally strong, he immediately backed down!
