Douluo Continent: I am Black Tiger Afu!

"Nine hundred and ninety-eight, nine hundred and ninety-nine, one thousand!"

In the courtyard where Afu and Yanfeng lived in the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, the two were sweating profusely in front of a group of fitness equipment.

After shouting out the last number, he slammed the huge, specially made barbell in his hand to the ground with a thud, and then slowly stood up.

"Ha, Xiao Feng, how about it, you lost again!" A Fu breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Yan Feng beside him.

Yan Feng slowly put down the barbell, which was obviously a size smaller than his own, wiped the sweat from his brow, and couldn't help but complain.

"Boss, do you think everyone is like you? This physique... it's terrifying to look at."

Six years have passed, and the child who was once a little naive has quietly grown into a tall and dashing young man.

Afu was much taller and bigger than he had been six years ago, with broad shoulders and a wide back, and his simple training vest was stretched taut by his solid muscles.

His short, fiery red hair stood up defiantly, and his body surging with energy, radiating a scorching and domineering aura.

Yan Feng appeared even taller and more upright, less timid than before, with a calmer and more resolute air about him. As his cultivation level increased, his aura also became more profound.

Just then, a clear but clearly dissatisfied shout came from the courtyard gate:

"Ah Fu! Yan Feng! You two—are you ready yet?!"

Two pretty young girls stood by the door of the courtyard.

It was Ning Tian and Wu Feng.

Ning Tian wore a light blue knee-length dress with a dark blue ribbon tied around her waist, which accentuated her slender waist and gave her a figure that already had the delicate charm of a young girl.

Six years have passed, and she has grown into a graceful young woman with a beautiful face and a gentle temperament that carries the poise befitting a young master of a sect.

She half-tied up her long golden hair behind her and secured it with a jade hairpin, leaving the rest of her hair flowing smoothly over her shoulders.

Beside her, Wu Feng was dressed in a fiery red outfit with dark gold piping at the collar and cuffs, which made her skin look even whiter and her hair as red as fire.

She seemed to have styled her hair specially today; her shoulder-length short hair was smooth and stylish, less frizzy than usual, and paired with her handsome face, it gave her a unique kind of beauty.

Both of them were clearly dressed up carefully, exuding youthful energy.

Afu turned his head at the sound and glanced around casually:

"Okay, just a moment. I need to pack up all the equipment first. I spent a lot of money and used rare materials to specially commission the blacksmiths in Jiubao City to make it."

Yan Feng nodded obediently, wiped the sweat from his brow, and echoed, "Yes, we'll be done soon."

Seeing that the two of them were completely ignoring his attire, Ning Tian's good mood vanished instantly. He grabbed Wu Feng and stormed out of the courtyard.

"Damn it, are all these guys' brains filled with muscles?!"

All they do is train, train, and enjoy fighting! Let them and those lumps of iron go by!

Ning Tian bit his lower lip, rarely showing such a resentful expression.

I've really been driven crazy by Afu these past two years!

Ah Fu's strength has been improving by leaps and bounds over the past six years, but in some aspects, his mind is so dull it's outrageous!

Ning Tian is now starting to wonder if the nerve in Afu's brain that controls emotions has been completely filled with muscle bulges!

"Young Master, don't pay them any mind, you still have me!"

Wu Feng quickly ran to Ning Tian's side, took Ning Tian's arm with his left hand, and patted her already well-developed breasts with his right hand, looking very righteous.

"That's right, ignore that stinky man! Let him and that pile of iron go!" Ning Tian snorted coldly.

The two walked hand in hand out of the courtyard.

After taking a few steps, he couldn't help but turn back and glance at Afu and Yanfeng in the courtyard, who were still confused about the situation.

Finally, I couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Forget it, arguing with these two muscle-bound bastards is just asking for trouble.

After Ning Tian and Wu Feng left, Afu came to Yan Feng's side and patted him on the shoulder:

"See? Women are such strange and incomprehensible creatures; they are the stumbling blocks that prevent us from becoming stronger."

Remember! Emotions will only slow down our punches!

Yan Feng wholeheartedly agreed: "Boss, you're right!"

……

A week later.

The outer area of ​​the Starry Sky Forest.

A dull thud suddenly echoed through the forest.

A red figure was violently thrown into the air, while another gray figure was also knocked back a short distance by the furious attack from the soul beast. It managed to adjust its direction in mid-air to avoid falling.

"Feng Mei!" Ning Tian called out anxiously and rushed over to check on her!

Wu Feng only managed to stop after crashing into a tree and breaking it.

Fortunately, the Red Dragon Martial Soul was tough and resilient, and thanks to its massive defense, it did not suffer any serious injuries.

She struggled to her feet from among the broken trees and looked at Ning Tian running towards her:

"Don't worry, I'm fine!"

Immediately following this was a deafening roar.

"Roar~~!"

It was a powerful Vajra Bear with two thousand years of cultivation. Its magnificent body stood upright, a full five meters tall!

Its chest was covered with a layer of armor that looked like it was cast from rock.

At this moment, it was glaring angrily at the four men and women who seemed to have ill intentions.

"Haha, Yan Feng, Wu Feng, you two aren't quite up to par either."

At that moment, Afu burst into laughter.

As soon as he finished speaking, he bent his knees and kicked off, leaping towards the enraged giant bear.

Yan Feng's face immediately turned red:

"That Mighty Bear attacked from the shadows; I was careless and didn't dodge!"

On the other side, after Wu Feng stood up, upon hearing A Fu's slightly mocking words, he couldn't help but shout defiantly:

"Damn it, Afu, I don't need your help! I can handle this soul beast all by myself."

At this moment, Afu's figure had already closed in on the Mighty Vajra Bear.

His original martial soul was attached to him, and three soul rings—yellow, purple, and black—lit up on his back.

Immediately afterwards, the first spirit ring, which was also the only yellow spirit ring, lit up.

Golden light flowed around, and Afu's body seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light.

Invincible Vajra Divine Skill!

The full stats instantly double.

The immense power of blood and qi within his body surged wildly, causing his hair to stand on end and forming a red wave of energy on his skin.

"Ha, watch this! Super Planetary Burn, an absolutely serious punch!"

There were no fancy moves, just pure punches!

Bend your knees, twist your waist, and throw a punch.

"roar--!"

Not to be outdone, the Mighty King Kong Bear swung its enormous paw, smashing it down on Afu with tremendous force!

A moment later, fists and palms met.

Without the slightest hesitation!

The fist, burning with scarlet blood energy, smashed the entire arm of the Mighty Vajra Bear.

Immediately afterwards, without pause, it blasted through half of the giant bear's body with devastating force.

Blood gushed from the shattered body, but it was instantly repelled when it came into contact with the blood-red aura surrounding Afu!

Afu and the giant bear passed each other.

"roar……"

The Mighty Bear let out one last roar before collapsing to the ground, its life force rapidly draining away!

"Ning Tian!"

Afu shouted.

Holding the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda in his hands, Ning Tian, ​​who was ready to provide support at any time, immediately reacted.

The storage soul tool flashed, and a dagger appeared in his hand.

In a few leaps, it quickly arrived beside the Mighty King Kong Bear, who was barely clinging to life.

Then, without hesitation, he swiftly and cleanly ended its life.

A bright purple soul ring slowly rose from the corpse of the soul beast.

"You can focus on absorbing the spirit ring; the three of us will protect you!"

"Okay! Thank you for your protection, Brother Afu!"

Ning Tian blinked and gave Afu a playful smile.

Without further delay, he decisively sat cross-legged on the ground and guided the purple soul ring to his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!
