Martial Arts Overlord!

After Lu Jin finished speaking, the entire venue fell silent for a full three seconds.

Then things exploded!

"Holy crap! Is he insane?!"

In the stands, someone shouted this first, and then countless voices erupted at the same time.

"One person against twenty-one? Who does he think he is?"

"Arrogant! Utterly arrogant!"

"So what if we killed Jin Hu? Everyone standing here is still a top-three member of the branch."

"That's not how you court death!"

The cheering squad from the earthquake zone was the loudest. Zhao Peng jumped up from his seat, waving his fist: "Brother Luo! Let him know what true power is!"

The trainees from Changhe District and Tianshui District also cheered, and the entire top floor was like a pot of boiling water, with the sound waves rising one after another.

Then Chen Wei stood up.

He stood alone at the very front of the cheering squad from Baijiang District, cupping his hands to his mouth, and roared with all his might, "Brother Lu Jin! Crush them!"

Chen Wei's roar had the force of a thousand troops. The students from Baijiang District roared along with him. Although their numbers were less than the seven branches across the street combined, their momentum was in no way inferior.

In the seat next to him, Jiang Zheng gripped the armrest tightly. He opened his mouth, as if to say something, but his gaze involuntarily fell on Lu Jin's face.

That young face held a calm composure bordering on indifference.

This caused him to lean back in his chair.

He chose to believe Lu Jin.

At this moment, in the center of the arena, Lu Jin's gaze swept over the twenty-one figures still hesitating in front of him.

Everyone's face was filled with anger.

It was Lu Jin's words, "They're all trash," that provoked his anger, but beneath the anger lay an undeniable hesitation.

No one made the first move.

Lu Jin looked at them, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"What, none of you dare to go up?"

The voice wasn't loud, but every word was clearly audible to everyone present.

"You don't even have the courage to throw a punch at me, what kind of geniuses are you?"

These words were like a needle, pricking everyone's self-esteem.

"Arrogant!"

Finally, someone could no longer tolerate Lu Jin's provocation. A burly contestant rushed out first. He was the second elite in the Tianzhen District, with the strength of the fourth level of the Muscle Refining Realm. The phantom of the Dragon Elephant appeared behind him, and he threw a punch straight at Lu Jin's face.

"What are you barking about?!"

Lu Jin did not dodge, nor did he even adopt any defensive stance.

Just as the fist was about to touch his nose, he slightly turned his body, letting the fist graz his ear, and then his right fist slammed out from his waist, accurately hitting the opponent's left cheek.

boom!

The dull thud was deafening. The contestant from the Skyquake Zone was thrown around like a sandbag, his feet leaving the ground, his body spinning in mid-air for more than half a circle, before crashing heavily to the ground.

A muffled thud came from the floor, and in an instant his eyes rolled back, his mouth opened slightly, his limbs stretched out, and he remained motionless.

I fell asleep right away!

The entire room fell silent once more, everyone's eyes widened and their Adam's apples bobbed!

One punch!

Another punch sent someone flying, and he never got up again!

Everyone was shocked by Lu Jin's strength!

"waste."

Lu Jin shook his hand, his tone as indifferent as if he were saying that the weather was nice today.

The moment he finished speaking, he moved.

Instead of waiting for others to attack, he took the initiative and rushed into the crowd.

The phantom of a dragon and elephant suddenly appeared behind him. The moment the golden dragon and elephant raised their heads and roared, he crashed into the crowd like a meteorite hitting the water.

With a right punch, a contestant's blocking arm was knocked away, the fist piercing through the defense and slamming into his chest, sending him flying backward. He landed with his eyes closed.

With a sweeping left foot, two players attempting to flank from the side were simultaneously struck in the shin. In the instant they lost their balance, Lu Jin's fists landed on their backs, and the two fell to the ground, their faces pressed against the cushioning pad, motionless.

He sprinted forward, his knee plunging into the abdomen of the third contestant. The man curled up like a boiled shrimp, collapsing to the ground without even making a sound.

Five!

Six!

...

Ten!

Twenty!

The shouts from the stands went from loud to sparse, and from sparse to silent.

One by one, the cheering squads from the other branches fell silent. In the end, even the people from the Tianzhen Zone shut their mouths, but when they opened their mouths, they couldn't make a sound. Their eyes were fixed on the center of the venue, and the golden figure was reflected in their pupils.

Lu Jin's every move was clean and efficient.

Without any unnecessary movements, just the simplest attack, in an instant, everyone except Luo Yuansheng fell to the ground and fell asleep!

Chu Zhen and Yang Tai stood at the edge of the field, completely dumbfounded.

Yang Tai's mouth opened into an exaggerated "O" shape, while Chu Zhen's expression was even more complicated, as if he were looking at a monster!

At this moment, the entire top floor was completely silent.

The space, spanning several thousand square meters, was so quiet that you could hear the wind blowing through the cracks in the windows.

Twenty people were lying haphazardly on the ground.

Each of them was one of the top three elites in their respective branches, all of them were highly anticipated geniuses, but in Lu Jin's hands they were like rag dolls that were casually thrown on the ground.

At the same time, the owner of the Changhe District branch suddenly stood up, causing his chair to tip backward and crash to the ground with a loud thud.

He didn't bother to help him up, his eyes fixed on Lu Jin in the center of the arena, his lips trembling violently, and it took him a long time to squeeze out three words:

"The Yi Jin Jing!"

These three words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples to spread instantly.

"impossible!"

The curator of the Tianshui branch also stood up, his composure completely shattered.

"He's only been practicing the Yi Jin Jing for a few days? Four days? Five days? How could he possibly break through to the Yi Jin Jing realm in such a short time!"

The owners of the other branch libraries looked at each other, their faces showing the same shock and disbelief.

They've seen geniuses before; there are plenty of geniuses in the inner city branch. But the fact that someone could break through from the Flesh Refining Realm to the Tendon Changing Realm in just a few days is even more terrifying than some of the geniuses in the inner city!

The stands erupted in uproar!

"No, this person is a monster!"

"This is rigged! Why did he have the Yi Jin Jing level during the inner city selection? Isn't the Yi Jin Jing technique only available to those who enter the inner city?!"

"You could kill a wanted criminal, but what's terrifying is that he reached the Yi Jin Jing realm in just a few days!"

Amidst the heated discussion, He Yulong, the owner of the inner city pavilion, held a teacup and stared at Lu Jin for a long time.

He nodded slightly, turned to Jiang Zheng, and said with satisfaction, "Xiao Lu is indeed quite good."

Jiang Zheng sat beside him, his back ramrod straight, the wrinkles on his face smoothed out, and he looked ten years younger.

He grinned: "Of course, I never exaggerate. I've said it before, Xiao Lu is a genius."

Lu Yang's face was so dark it could drip water, but he quickly composed himself.

His gaze fell on the edge of the field.

Luo Yuansheng was still standing there, arms crossed, without moving an inch since the selection process began.

This calmed his breathing, and a smile even appeared on his lips.

"It's really good."

Lü Yang's voice returned to calm.

"But even at the Yi Jin Realm, victory is not guaranteed. Your student has already exhausted his stamina, while Yuan Sheng has been conserving his energy. He is not without a chance."

Jiang Zheng glanced at him, said nothing, and just shook his head with a smile.

In the center of the arena, Lu Jin stopped moving. There was no one standing in front of him anymore.

At the edge of the field, the figure was Luo Yuansheng; he hadn't moved from the very beginning.

The two looked at each other from a distance of less than ten meters.

There were twenty people lying haphazardly underfoot, like a human carpet.

Chu Zhen and Yang Tai stood behind Lu Jin, barely daring to breathe loudly.

They looked at the players lying on the ground, then at Lu Jin's back, their shock beyond words.

Lu Jin lifted his foot and walked between the two lying contestants toward Luo Yuansheng.

The footsteps were neither fast nor slow, each step making a crisp sound on the ground, which was particularly clear in the quiet top floor.

He stopped three meters in front of Luo Yuansheng.

"Alright, it's your turn." Lu Jin looked at Luo Yuansheng with a solemn expression.

"Let me see just how arrogant you are."

Luo Yuansheng's gaze swept over the twenty "sleeping" contestants on the ground, and his pupils contracted slightly.

His throat moved slightly, as if he were swallowing, but his expression remained firm.

He then gritted his teeth and said, enunciating each word clearly, "I now admit you live up to your reputation! But you're far too arrogant!"

The moment he finished speaking, a loud bang was heard beneath Luo Yuansheng's feet.

In an instant, his figure vanished from the spot, and he shot straight toward Lu Jin like a cannonball.

At the same time, his right arm suddenly swelled up, the muscles stretched the sleeve of his training clothes taut, and blue veins bulged and twisted under his skin like earthworms.

Dragon Burst Fist.

With a single punch, the power can surge to the level of the second stage of the Yi Jin Jing in a very short time.

Luo Yuansheng was able to unleash the power of the Yi Jin realm while still in the Muscle Refining realm, and that was all thanks to this move.

He wasn't entirely bragging when he said he could kill Jin Hu with one punch.

He risked all his strength in that punch.

The force of the punch tore through the air, producing a sharp whistling sound.

Luo Yuansheng's fist rapidly enlarged in Lu Jin's vision, heading straight for his chest.

Lu Jin did not dodge.

They didn't even adopt any defensive stance.

He simply raised his right hand slightly, his five fingers spread.

boom!

The moment their fists and palms collided, a muffled explosion resounded in the center of the arena.

The shockwave spread outwards from between the two, stirring up dust on the ground and causing the hems of the clothes of several contestants lying on the edge to flutter.

Then everything returned to calm.

Lu Jin stood still, his body motionless.

The five fingers of his right hand firmly gripped Luo Yuansheng's fist, just like he had gripped Jin Hu's fist in the elevator that day.

Luo Yuansheng's Dragon Burst Fist, which could unleash the power of the second stage of the Yi Jin Jing, was caught by him with one hand!

Upon seeing this, Luo Yuansheng's pupils dilated sharply.

"How is that possible!"

His voice changed tone, becoming extremely shrill, "How is this possible—!"

"Is that all you've got for your full-force attack?"

Lu Jin spoke slowly, his voice not loud, but everyone could hear him clearly.

"Weak and powerless."

"Impossible! That can't be!"

Luo Yuansheng was suddenly overwhelmed. He couldn't accept that his all-out attack had been so easily blocked by Lu Jin!

But his incredulous roar had barely faded when...

Lu Jin grabbed his fist and pulled him towards him. The force was so great that Luo Yuansheng had no time to resist, and his body involuntarily leaned forward, staggering.

Then Lu Jin slammed his right foot into the ground.

The entire field trembled under that one step.

Slightly lower your body, let the power rise from the soles of your feet, and then, through the twist of your waist and hips, transfer it to your right elbow.

His right elbow instantly drew an arc in the air, accompanied by a sharp and ear-piercing sonic boom, and struck Luo Yuansheng's chest with precision.

boom! ! !

This sound was louder than any of the previous impacts!

Luo Yuansheng's body flew out like a baseball hit by a bat, tracing an almost straight line in the air before crashing heavily onto the ground more than ten meters away.

The entire scene was suddenly filled with a muffled thud as Luo Yuansheng's body bounced on the ground, then bounced again, and slid several meters before coming to a stop.

He lay there on his back, arms outstretched, legs bent at an unnatural angle, eyes closed, mouth slightly open, chest rising and falling slowly.

He is still alive, but that's all; he has lost consciousness.

The entire venue fell silent once again!

All eyes were on Lu Jin.

He maintained his elbowing stance, his right elbow still suspended in mid-air, his body slightly leaning forward, like a sculpture frozen in the moment of his attack.

Chu Zhen and Yang Tai stood at the edge of the field, looking at the people lying on the ground, at Luo Yuansheng who was unconscious in the distance, and then at Lu Jin who stood proudly in the center of the field.

Yang Tai's jaw dropped. He mechanically turned his head to look at Chu Zhen, his voice as dry as sandpaper: "He...he beat everyone down?"

Chu Zhen did not answer. His gaze shifted from Lu Jin to the "sleeping" contestants on the ground, and then back to Lu Jin.

At that moment, he remembered what Lu Jin had said in the cafeteria—"I'll take you into the inner city."

At the time, he thought Lu Jin was bragging, but now he knows that Lu Jin never says he can't do something.

Someone subconsciously glanced down at the time.

From the time He Yulong announced the selection process until now.

five minutes.

Just five minutes!

The selection process, which was originally scheduled for one hour, ended in just five minutes.

It was speedrun!

This surpasses all previous records for the inner city selection!

The person who started all of this is standing in the center of the field, not even disturbing his breathing.

At this moment, He Yulong, the owner of the inner city restaurant, put down his teacup.

He sat up straight, his gaze falling on Lu Jin, a glint of light flashing in his eyes that had never appeared before, his tone slightly shocked.

"The Second Realm of Yi Jin Jing"
