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

The once noisy battlefield became quiet, and everyone could clearly hear their own breathing.

"Chen Tieyi...defeated? Defeated by this swordsman!"

"He is the Bull Demon King... the Bull Demon King who killed Xue Wuyai! Even Chen Tieyi, a renowned Divine Strength Realm expert, was defeated by him!"

The soldiers and the knife-wielders mixed in with them were all shocked by what they saw.

Chen Tieyi, known as the invincible Iron Fist, could not even last two rounds against Zhang Jiu, a centurion of the Great Wind Army. Yet, he was defeated head-on by this "Mr. Bull"!

"father!!"

After a long silence, Chen Fei's mournful cry broke the tranquility. His eyes were bloodshot and his face was deathly pale as he looked at everything before him.

When Chen Tieyi appeared, Chen Fei thought he was saved, but it turned out that even Chen Tieyi had died here, which meant that no one could save him anymore and he was doomed!

"Kill! Kill all these bandits!"

Zhang Jiu quickly realized what was happening and gave the order to surround and kill the remaining Ironclad Sect warriors.

"Spare me! I surrender!"

These Ironclad Sect warriors were already far outnumbered by the Great Wind Army soldiers, and the death of Chen Tieyi further demoralized them. Some were killed on the spot, while others hurriedly dropped their weapons and knelt down to surrender.

Soon everything quieted down, and Zhang Jiu ordered his men to begin cleaning up the battlefield and treating the wounded.

Su Changqing was not idle either. He cut off the head of Chen Tieyi, whose internal organs were ruptured and who was beyond saving even by a god. This was a serious criminal worth two thousand taels of silver!

Chen Tieyi, a martial artist of the Divine Power Realm who was quite famous in Dafeng County, perished here, a cycle of cause and effect.

In addition, Su Changqing also searched for the corpses of Chen Tieyi and others. On the corpse of a Tieyi Sect warrior carrying a bag, Su Changqing made a discovery.

Inside the bag were several silver notes and loose silver, totaling seven or eight hundred taels. In addition, there was a secret manual with the three large characters "Iron Shirt" on the cover!

"Iron Shirt? Chen Tieyi's Iron Shirt technique has its unique aspects. Its essence might be able to be integrated into my hard qigong. Extracting its essence should be helpful for my hard qigong practice!"

Su Changqing was quite interested in this "Iron Shirt" technique, so he put it away and planned to study it later.

"Let's continue on our journey."

Leaving half the team behind to handle the aftermath, Zhang Jiu, despite his injuries, gave an order for the team to continue their journey. They needed to escort these death row inmates to Dafeng City before nightfall.

Along the way, many people looked at Su Changqing with awe, knowing that if it weren't for this top-notch ghostwriter, the outcome might have been completely different!

By evening, the group had encountered no further trouble and finally arrived in Great Wind City.

"Lord Zhang, the mission is complete, I'll be taking my leave now."

Su Changqing greeted Zhang Jiu, the escort mission was successfully completed, and he also managed to kill Chen Tieyi, who came to break in the prison.

"Mr. Niu, thank you so much for killing that scoundrel Chen Tieyi today. I'll definitely treat you to a drink sometime!"

Zhang Jiu also cupped his hands to Su Changqing, saying with gratitude, "Without Su Changqing, if Chen Tieyi had succeeded, then I, as the leader, would have been severely punished!"

Without further ado, Su Changqing disappeared into the street.

"I'm afraid it won't be long before Dafeng City has another expert at the Divine Might Realm. I really don't know what kind of background this expert has."

Zhang Jiu sighed inwardly. This Mr. Niu looked to be only in his thirties, yet he already possessed the strength to kill Chen Tieyi. He would most likely be able to advance further in the future and reach the Divine Might Realm. However, this kind of expert seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. Not long ago, he had never heard of such a person!

Su Changqing was unaware of Zhang Jiu's thoughts. Without delay, after separating from Zhang Jiu's team, he went to Mingxin Tower to inform Xu Hongyi that the mission had been successfully completed and that he had handed over Chen Tieyi's head to Xu Hongyi in exchange for the reward he deserved.

"This trip yielded nearly three thousand taels of silver, enough for me to reach the peak of the Divine Power Realm..."

Su Changqing was very satisfied with his gains from this trip. Even the expensive Hundred-Supplement Strength Pills were enough for him to enjoy every day!

"Mr. Niu was able to kill Chen Tieyi, so he must be close to reaching the Divine Warrior realm!"

While talking with Su Changqing, Xu Hongyi couldn't help but sigh.

Su Changqing shook his head: "There's still a way to go, but I am indeed very curious about the Divine Valor Realm. Could you perhaps offer some guidance, Master Xu?"

Su Changqing himself had not yet reached the perfection of the Divine Power Realm, and his understanding of the Divine Might Realm above it was also superficial. Xu Hongyi, on the other hand, was the master of Mingxin Tower, and was knowledgeable and experienced. She must know more about the Divine Might Realm than he did, so he asked Xu Hongyi for guidance.

Xu Hongyi was slightly surprised, but considering that Su Changqing was still buying the Hundred-Supplement Strength Pills every month, Su Changqing was definitely not lying and had not truly reached the Perfection of the Divine Power Realm!

After a moment's thought, Xu Hongyi said, "The Divine Valor Realm is the final realm of the four realms of Body Tempering. The essence of this realm lies in spiritual will!"

"Spiritual will?"

Su Changqing listened silently. He had always been a loner, and even Ren Tian, ​​who had guided him into the world of martial arts, was not actually a top-tier martial artist.

"Once the Divine Power Realm reaches its peak, in order to continue to grow the physical body, it is necessary to stimulate the physical body with a strong mental will, so as to break through the limits and possess ten thousand catties of divine power. The spirit can influence the physical body."

Xu Hongyi said this to Su Changqing, which made Su Changqing suddenly understand.

The mind and the body are interdependent. For example, if a person's body is injured or becomes ill, it will affect their mind, making them depressed and listless.

Conversely, if a martial artist has a strong spirit, it can also influence their physical body, which is the key to entering the Divine Warrior Realm!

"Thank you so much, Mr. Xu, for clearing up my doubts!"

Su Changqing sincerely thanked Xu Hongyi. If Su Changqing were to ponder this on his own, it would surely take him a long time to think it through.

A bright smile appeared on Xu Hongyi's pretty face: "These are things that Mr. Niu will eventually understand, and they are not really secrets."

"There are many ways to cultivate strong mental power. For example, asceticism is the most direct way. The second way is to cultivate mental and willpower techniques. However, these techniques are very rare. In Dafeng City, only a few large forces and families with long-standing traditions possess them."

Xu Hongyi then added a sentence to Su Changqing.

"The cultivation method for spiritual will... seems to be even rarer and more precious than internal energy cultivation."

Su Changqing thought to himself, knowing that such techniques and secrets are closely guarded secrets for powerful forces and families, and it would be very difficult for outsiders to obtain them easily!

Su Changqing didn't dwell on it too much; his priority now was to reach the peak of the Divine Power Realm.

Su Changqing benefited greatly from his conversation with Xu Hongyi. As dusk approached, he took his leave.

"This Mr. Niu... is truly remarkable. He actually killed Chen Tieyi... and he seems to be a lone warrior. If we could recruit him into our Xu family, it would be a good choice. It's just that there aren't many suitable women in the clan who are his age."

After seeing Su Changqing off, Xu Hongyi looked at Chen Tieyi's head on the table and pondered silently. If she could completely win over such a master, he would be a great help!
