The weakest martial artist? One punch and he's leveled up a whole realm!

He walked to the next machine.

It was a huge pool of water, black in color and emitting a chilling aura.

There is a plaque by the pool with the words: Frozen Pool.

"Ice Pool. The water temperature is between -10 and -100 degrees Celsius, which can activate blood circulation and strengthen the body. The longer you soak, the better the effect. The highest record: two hours."

"Two hours?" Ye Xiao asked. "Whose record is this?"

Fatty Wang shook his head: "I don't know. The nameplate only says 'record,' not 'name.'"

Ye Xiao squatted down and put his hand into the water.

The biting cold felt like needles piercing the bones.

His hand remained submerged in the water for ten seconds; when he pulled it out, his fingers were stiff.

"This water is really cold," he said. "If you accidentally fall in, you could freeze to death."

"Yeah," Fatty Wang said, "that's why nobody dares to come near here."

Ye Xiao stood up and shook the water off his hands.

He walked toward the last machine.

That's the machine at the very back of the venue.

It was huge, taking up an entire wall.

The surface is black metal with a groove that is exactly the shape of a fist.

There are cracks on the edge of the groove, as if it was broken by something.

"What is this?"

Ye Xiao looked up at the fist-shaped groove in the center, which was covered with cracks.

Fatty Wang looked at the machine and answered.

"It's called 'One Punch'."

"One punch?"

"Yes, one punch!" Fatty Wang's voice was very soft. "This machine doesn't train anything else, just one punch. You punch that groove, and the machine will measure your strength, speed, angle, and penetration, then give you a score. The maximum score is one hundred."

What was the highest score?

Fatty Wang recalled for a moment, and then gave a score.

"Eighty-seven points."

"Who?"

"I don't know. The nameplate only says the score, not the name. But that crack—it was from that punch."

Ye Xiao stood in front of the machine, looking at the groove.

Cracks extend from the edge of the groove, like lightning, like tree roots, like someone silently shattering something.

He put his hand into the groove, which was exactly the size of a fist.

Has anyone ever given it a perfect score?

"No," said Fatty Wang. "No one has ever been able to get a perfect score."

Fatty Wang seemed to have figured out Ye Xiao's thoughts.

He offered, "Brother Xiao, want to try 'One Punch'? I'll start the machine for you."

Ye Xiao nodded: "Okay, I'll give it a try."

then.

Fatty Wang activated the "One Punch" machine.

The previously quiet machine suddenly roared to life.

Furthermore, Ye Xiao could see an LCD screen in the direction of Fatty Wang.

The score displayed above is 0.

In other words, when Ye Xiao throws a punch at [One Punch], the result will be displayed here.

Ye Xiao took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and slowly mobilized all the power in his body.

He remained calm and focused, his eyes fixed ahead, clearing his mind of all distractions.

His eyes were fixed on the groove in front of him.

next moment.

Push off with your feet, twist your waist, and extend your shoulders to generate power, which comes from the ground.

The attack originates from the feet, waist, and shoulders, then converges into the fist to strike the target.

Rotate your body to generate force with your arms, keep your front foot still, and rotate your back foot's toes slightly to squeeze it together like squeezing a balloon.

When you throw a punch, relax your whole body, only tense up for a split second when you exert force!

boom!!!

With this punch, Ye Xiao clenched his four fingers tightly and gripped his fist, hitting the groove in front of him perfectly!

The entire "One Punch" machine was shaking and vibrating violently.

Ye Xiao also felt intense pain on the back of his hand.

After all, forces are reciprocal.

He has to bear the same amount of force as the punch he throws.

【Ding! 】

You have completed a punch, with a power of 88%!

That punch was powerful enough!

Ye Xiao felt as if a dam had been opened inside his body, and all his strength was instantly released.

He looked up, slightly out of breath, in the direction of Fatty Wang.

At this moment, Fatty Wang's eyes widened in utter shock.

Then I was utterly horrified.

He stared intently at the scoring of that punch.

The score displayed above is 41.

After Ye Xiao saw the score of his punch...

A chill ran through him: "Is it really that bad? My punch didn't even reach the passing grade?"

However, Fatty Wang was so shocked that he stammered.

"Xiao, Brother Xiao! You, you're a monster! How did you manage to score 41 points with that punch?"

"Is the display broken? That can't be!"

Now it was Ye Xiao's turn to be puzzled.

"Only 41 points? I didn't even pass. That's a really bad score, right?"

"Fatty, I know you're trying to comfort me because you're worried I'll be upset, but you don't need to do that at all."

Fatty Wang quickly shook his head and stammered an explanation.

"Brother Xiao, yes, that's how it is!"

"This 'One Punch' machine can only withstand the power of the tenth realm at most, and its scoring standard actually corresponds to the realm!"

"Normally, the first realm corresponds to a score of 0 to 10!"

Fatty Wang probably felt that just talking wasn't convincing enough.

So he went to Ye Xiao's position.

They exchanged information with Ye Xiao.

Followed by.

Fatty Wang also threw a punch!

boom!

[One punch] The machine's shaking was clearly less than one-tenth of Ye Xiao's.

Followed by.

Ye Xiao could see that Wang Pangzi's punch was rated 11 points.

Although Wang Pangzi's punch was not as powerful as Ye Xiao's.

However, this punch alone was quite powerful, enough to kill a tiger.

After Fatty Wang finished his personal demonstration.

He continued to explain, "Brother Xiao, did you see that? This punch of mine can only deliver 11 points of power, which actually corresponds to the strength of the second realm."

"In other words, although I have now entered the third realm, my overall combat strength is actually still at the level of the second realm."

"And Xiao Ge, you just scored 41 points! That's absolutely amazing, breathtaking!"

"If I remember correctly, Brother Xiao, your current cultivation level should still be at the first realm, right?"

Ye Xiao nodded.

Fatty Wang swallowed hard, deeply impressed.

"Brother Xiao, your physical strength and punching power are terrifying! How did you train?"

"Although your cultivation level is only at the first realm, this punch you delivered already possesses the power of the early fifth realm!"

After Fatty Wang finished explaining...

Ye Xiao also had a look of sudden realization on his face.

It turns out that the "One Punch" machine's rating is based on this one punch, which determines roughly what level of power the punch corresponds to.

The machine's maximum score is 100 points, which means that the highest level it can measure is the tenth realm.

Ye Xiao originally came here to test his current combat strength using various machines.

Now, after Fatty Wang's explanation...

Ye Xiao gained a completely new understanding of the power of his punch.
