I started out playing Saitama, and now I'm One-Punch Man?

On the arena.

Li Kun was covered in thick stone armor, with only his face exposed.

His already robust physique now looked like a small mountain.

"I feel like this guy would never win, no matter how hard he tries."

"Ordinary people shouldn't be here."

"Quickly cancel the application eligibility for ordinary people."

The crowd below the stage lost interest.

In their view, this would inevitably be an overwhelming battle.

"Brother Qi Yu, you should make the first move."

Li Kun looked at Qi Yu opposite him and spoke calmly.

He was genuinely afraid that one punch from him would leave Qi Yu paralyzed on one side.

"it is good."

Qi Yu nodded, her expression remaining calm.

Then he strolled toward Li Kun as if taking a walk.

This caused the audience to burst into laughter.

"Seriously, is this guy trying to be funny?"

"Ugh, let's finish this already, it's giving me a headache."

"If he can win, I'll just eat him..."

next second.

Qi Yu's right fist was casually swung out.

Li Kun couldn't help but laugh as he watched the slow pace of the punches.

"Are you trying to tickle me?"

"Don't be afraid, just use the whole thing..."

Before he could finish speaking...

Bang! !

His burly figure flew backward.

It crashed into the wall thirty meters away.

The body was embedded in it, and the entire wall was covered with fine cracks, as if it could collapse at any moment.

"this...."

The staff members looked on in disbelief.

She looked at Li Kun with surprise, then at Qi Yu with surprise.

He slowly withdrew his right hand, his face remaining calm and composed.

He never imagined that his seemingly ordinary punch would have such great power.

The crowd below the arena also looked on incredulously.

Their mouths were agape, each one wider than the last.

"Holy crap??? Can someone tell me what just happened?"

"Is he really just an ordinary person without any superpowers???"

"One punch and he was knocked out???"

After realizing what was happening, the medical staff at the scene rushed towards Li Kun.

He asked with a worried expression.

"How are you? Are you seriously injured?"

"It's...it's broken."

Li Kun's body was stuck in the wall, his expression pained: "It seems like my bones... are broken."

Qi Yu withdrew her gaze, feeling somewhat apologetic.

Since it was my first time making a move, I wasn't very precise in controlling the force.

But since things had come to this, he didn't want to say anything more.

He simply looked at the middle-aged man beside the ring and asked, "You just said that if a win is too easy, shouldn't we be matched with another opponent?"

"In terms of the rules, yes."

The middle-aged man straightened his expression.

He then turned to the group of people who hadn't yet taken the test: "Who among you is willing to step forward and give it a try?"

Everyone avoided eye contact and remained silent.

They had considered that one of the two would definitely have to compete again, but they never expected it to be this ordinary person without any special abilities.

Although he is an ordinary person, he has almost reached the level of diamond or even star level.

They're not idiots.

Having witnessed that punch, how could he possibly go up and challenge it again?

"So what do we do now?"

Qi Yu withdrew her gaze from the crowd and looked at the middle-aged man again.

The middle-aged man also had a headache.

They had no idea how to assess Qi Yu's strength based on that punch just now.

Diamond? Star? Or King?

"Is an ordinary person ranked as a 'King'?"

He couldn't help but sigh.

Even Su Yang in the past couldn't have reached such an amazing rating standard at the beginning.

"Go wait in the waiting room for a bit."

The middle-aged man said, "I'll go ask first, then I'll come back and tell you."

...

"What? A punch?"

Second floor office.

Minister Xu Qingshan looked at the man in front of him with surprise and suspicion.

"You're saying... an ordinary person, an ordinary person with absolutely no superpowers... sent a stone-armored superpower user flying with a single punch? And afterwards, no superpower user dared to challenge him again?"

"That's right."

The middle-aged man said, "It was almost an instant, so I couldn't tell his strength at all, and I don't know what rating to give him now."

"An ordinary person without superpowers??"

Xu Qingshan confirmed it repeatedly.

The middle-aged man nodded.

"Yes, an ordinary person without any superpowers."

"Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"I can be 100% sure."

"Okay, then bring him over here first."

Xu Qingshan's brows remained furrowed as he watched the middle-aged man's departing figure.

After a while, he muttered something else.

"Could it be yet another Su Yang?"

Ten years ago, a man named Su Yang suddenly appeared in the world.

Although he is an ordinary person, he can cut off the head of an A-level monster with a single sword strike.

Because of his appearance, the Alliance was afraid of losing ordinary people with superhuman strength, so a year later they opened up the application process for ordinary people.

During these nine years, although many ordinary people have applied, not a single ordinary person has been approved so far.

"Xingxu, were you in charge of this batch of applicants today?"

Xu Qingshan picked up the landline next to him and called Li Xingxu.

"Do you know a young man named Qi Yu?"

"Does he really not have any superpowers?"

"Zhang, who was in charge of supervising the martial arts test, just told me that he defeated the Stone Armor Ability User with one punch."

"Yes, stone armor has the strongest defensive ability, which is why I wanted to ask you, is it true that he doesn't have any abilities?"

"Okay, okay, I understand."

"Okay, then come directly to my office later."

He hung up the phone, his brow still furrowed.

Just as I was wondering...

Xiao Zhang then led Qi Yu into the office.

"You're the ordinary person who just defeated the stone-armored ability user with a single punch?"

He sized up the bald man in front of him.

Xu Qingshan couldn't see any difference between him and ordinary people.

He was neither burly nor tall.

Qi Yu nodded.

Xu Qingshan stepped down from his seat.

He naturally extended his hand: "Let me see how strong your hand is."

"Don't hold back at all, just use as much force as you can."

Qi Yu nodded.

However, they did not dare to use their full strength.

Hold his right hand with a slight pressure.

Click!

The sound of bones clashing against each other rang out from Xu Qingshan's palm.

His face twitched without warning, his heart filled with shock.

"Is power really that terrifying?"

"He seems to be much stronger than Su Yang!!"

Qi Yu looked at Xu Qingshan, whose expression remained relatively calm.

He asked, "Is now okay?"

"Is it okay now?"

Xu Qingshan's pupils dilated in shock: "W-what do you mean?"

"Isn't this your greatest strength right now?"

Qi Yu could feel his arm trembling, and his face visibly turned red.

The other party is, after all, a minister; we can't embarrass him too much.

So he said, "That's all the strength I've used."

"Yes, that's fine."

The moment I pulled my right hand out, I instinctively leaned back and couldn't stop trembling.

Then, in a forcedly calm tone, she looked at Qi Yu and said, "Your appearance is indeed quite unexpected."

"But based on the strength you have shown so far, it is still impossible to accurately judge your strength."

"So we might arrange for you to participate in the fourth round of practical assessment later."

"Your hero rank will be determined based on your performance in the actual combat assessment!"
