Gao Wu: From a poor man in the outer city to a martial saint of the ten directions

This punch didn't feel like it hit a person at all; it felt more like it smashed into a solid granite block!

The human body can be trained to withstand attacks, but the skin and flesh should still be soft!

But Sun Bin's skin and flesh were as hard as stone, and the huge recoil force made Wei Xiu's finger bones go numb!

"He has some strength, but it's not enough."

In the instant Wei Xiu was stunned, Sun Bin's lips curled into a cold smile.

His large, rough hands, which had been raised all along, suddenly shot out with incredible speed!

In the blink of an eye, it was like an iron clamp, tightly gripping Wei Xiu's arms that he hadn't had time to retract!

Wei Xiu felt a chill run down his spine and suddenly exerted force in his waist, trying to pull his arm back.

But Sun Bin's ten fingers were as if they were cast in cement, completely immovable, and for a time they could not be moved even slightly!

"You're Wei Xiu from No. 7 Middle School, right?"

Sun Bin grabbed Wei Xiu's arm, a smug glint in his eyes.

"I've heard of your reputation since No. 4 Middle School. I heard that your ability to withstand beatings is extremely abnormal. You can even withstand the beatings from Zhou Xiong, who is like a human tank."

At this point, Sun Bin's sneer deepened, and the muscles in his arms suddenly bulged, making him look just like a stone statue!

"However, this time you've encountered my martial arts, and you've completely lost!"

Before he could finish speaking, Sun Bin grabbed Wei Xiu's forearm with both hands and pulled it downwards forcefully!

"hiss!"

This wasn't a particularly severe blow. If it were a fight with an ordinary person, the worst that would happen is a dislocated shoulder joint.

But Sun Bin's move made Wei Xiu gasp in shock!

As I pulled downwards, it felt as if my arm was being ground down by a grinding wheel, and a sharp, piercing pain instantly shot through my skin!

"Open it!"

Wei Xiu let out a low roar, instantly pushing his internal energy to its limit!

He kicked Sun Bin's hip with his right foot to gain leverage, and then forcefully broke free from the iron grip, using the momentum to retreat five or six meters to create distance.

When Wei Xiu steadied himself and looked down at his arms, the entire audience erupted in gasps of surprise!

Wei Xiu's once muscular forearm was now covered with more than a dozen crisscrossing bloody welts!

In some places, the skin and flesh were even turned outwards, and fresh blood was dripping from the fingertips onto the anti-slip mat!

In just one exchange, Wei Xiu, known for his physical strength, was actually injured by the opponent's bare hands?!

"Old Wei!" Lin Qi's heart clenched when he saw this, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Does Sun Bin have hangnails?! How can you scrape off a layer of skin just by touching him?!"

Standing to the side, Li Bulong also crossed his arms and frowned deeply.

"Damn it, Wei Xiu has met his match." Li Bulong said in a deep voice with a solemn expression.

"What Sun Bin is practicing should be the signature technique of the Eagle Martial Arts School's master, a mid-grade Yellow-level martial art called the Stone Body Technique!"

"Tai Shi Body? Instructor, what kind of boxing technique is this?" Lin Qi asked eagerly.

"It doesn't belong to any of the boxing, leg, or palm techniques," Li Bulong explained, shaking his head.

"This martial art is extremely rare; it completely abandons the subtle variations of techniques, focusing solely on the pure enhancement of the physical body!"

"When one cultivates to a high level, the muscles of the whole body become as hard as a rock, and ordinary attacks cannot even break through the defense."

"Especially those hands, honed over years by special medicinal solutions and elemental energy, are rough and sharp as sandpaper!"

At this point, Li Bulong sighed.

"Wei Xiu's advantage is his resilience, but against a rock covered in thorns and harder than him, he'd be at a huge disadvantage in close combat!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qi's face turned deathly pale, and he clutched his hair in distress.

"That's it... running into such a tough opponent in the very first match, Old Wei's prized defense is useless, isn't he going to lose?"

"Defeat? That's not necessarily true."

Li Bulong narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he said it would be difficult to win, a strong sense of anticipation rose deep in his heart.

The only way to break through this tortoise shell is to use an absolute burst of power that exceeds its defensive limits, to use sheer force against sheer force, and smash it to pieces!

Wei Xiu, Wei Xiu, just how far have you progressed in your Tiger-Taming Fist?!

……

On the arena.

Wei Xiu shook his bleeding arms, feeling the burning pain from the wounds.

The strange roughness on Sun Bin's hands was so pronounced that even muscle fibers could be easily scratched.

Moreover, since the competition is a points-based system, the referee team has already recorded the scratch on the scoreboard and given Sun Bin a valid score.

Sun Bin glanced at the large screen above his head, then put his gray hands behind his back, looking confident of victory.

"Wei Xiu, this is just a points match, there's no need to make it bloody."

Sun Bin looked at Wei Xiu calmly, his expression showing neither arrogance nor disdain, as if he were simply stating a fact.

"My martial arts are not good at attacking, but they are defenseless. You can't break through my defense, and you will get hurt if you get close."

"I'm currently leading in points, so why don't we all just stand here and wait until the five minutes are up? I don't intend to do anything drastic to ruin your future."

Hearing Sun Bin's words, which sounded like a declaration of victory...

Wei Xiu slowly raised his head and glanced at the countdown timer flashing on the screen.

Only three minutes left!

"Wait until the time is up?"

Wei Xiu's lips slowly curled into a slightly crazy smile, then he suddenly swung his arms, flicking the blood droplets from his hands onto the mat.

Then, he clenched his right fist in front and his left fist behind, striking a highly aggressive stance!

"Sorry, I'm not warmed up yet!"

Wei Xiu's dark eyes blazed with fighting spirit, locking onto Sun Bin opposite him.

"This game has only just begun!"

Seeing that Wei Xiu showed no sign of giving up, Liu Song called out again.

"The game continues!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Xiu moved like a tiger!

With a sudden stomp of his foot, accompanied by a muffled thud, he charged straight at Sun Bin, like a white-browed tiger descending a mountain, exuding an indomitable aura!

"You're courting death! Since you insist on seeking torture, then I'll grant your wish!"

Seeing Wei Xiu rushing forward, Sun Bin snorted coldly.

Instead of retreating, he crossed his arms to protect his chest, and his skin swelled up, forming a complete defense like solidified rock!

Tai Shi body, fully activated!

"Bang!"

Wei Xiu's heavy punch slammed into Sun Bin's crossed arms, producing a dull thud that sounded just like hitting a rock!

The intense recoil traveled along Wei Xiu's finger bones all the way to his entire body, making his teeth ache!

But he gritted his teeth and didn't take a single step back. His left fist followed up at an extremely tricky angle, hooking towards Sun Bin's side ribs!

However, Sun Bin merely grinned maliciously, neither dodging nor avoiding the punch that landed on his ribs.

At the same time, those rough, sandpaper-like iron hands violently reached out and grabbed Wei Xiu's shoulder!

"Sizzle!"
