American comics: Incredible comprehension, hand-crafted forbidden spells

"How is this possible?!" Lucian blurted out, his voice filled with horror. "He wasn't even wearing a slingshot!"

Carter, standing beside him, chuckled wryly and added, "Senior brother, don't be so skeptical. It took him less than three seconds at most to conjure that red shield. This kid's magical reserves are simply beyond what can be measured by ordinary standards."

Mordo and Lucian turned around at the same time and glared at Carter fiercely.

Carter immediately shrank his neck, shut his mouth, and mentally screamed: Why are you glaring at me? You'll see what a real psychopath is in a minute!

At this moment, Master Wang also summoned his red shield and assumed a fighting stance.

Lin Jie then raised his hands and assumed the same stance as the military boxing routine he had been taught yesterday!

"Holy crap, is he really going to fight Master Wang with military boxing?!" Carter watched from the sidelines, his heart pounding.

Although Lin Jie's magic power is abnormal, this assessment has a rule that only close combat is allowed!

Using a set of military-style boxing techniques that can only be used for performance to fight against Master Wang's more than ten years of real combat experience?

Isn't this just asking for trouble?!

Mordo and Lucian exchanged a glance, their expressions growing even more serious.

They knew that the key to this competition was not winning or losing, but rather what kind of potential Lin Jie could unleash in a desperate situation!

This is the real reason why Master Ancient One is personally overseeing things here today!

"Lin Jie, remember what I told you yesterday! What is the true purpose of military boxing!"

Master Wang shouted loudly, no longer holding back.

He suddenly slid forward, his right fist whistling sharply as it flew straight toward Lin Jie's face!

Lin Jie reacted extremely quickly, dodging the thunderous attack by sidestepping.

But Master Wang was, after all, a master of actual combat; when his first attack failed, he immediately changed his tactics.

Using his momentum, he delivered a beautiful roundhouse kick, striking Lin Jie hard in the waist.

Lin Jie could only raise his shield to block.

With a muffled "bang!", Lin Jie was jolted back half a step.

Next, Master Wang unleashed a series of fluid Taekwondo moves, forcing Lin Jie into a desperate retreat, leaving him only able to defend and with no chance to retaliate.

Military boxing appears clumsy and useless in the face of real combat.

"That's it?" Mordo frowned from the sidelines, his tone laced with sarcasm. "Is this the kind of once-in-a-millennium comprehension Wang was talking about? He was completely outmatched by a basic set of Taekwondo. I really can't see what's so special about him."

Lucian shook his head and looked at Carter: "Carter, it seems you really did lie. This kid is just a good-for-nothing who's all bark and no bite."

Carter was sweating profusely, staring at Lin Jie on the court, his mind screaming: Little devil, just get it already!

Where did that weirdo vibe of his, who could instantly understand something at a glance, go?!

Even the mage Wang, who was attacking, began to panic.

That's not right!

This script is wrong!

Given how freakish this kid is, he should have figured out some kind of unparalleled movement technique or power generation skill by now, right?

Why are you just sitting here getting beaten up?

"Lin Jie! Are you sleepwalking?! Wake up!"

Master Wang roared in anger, stopped his attack, and tried to wake up Lin Jie, who was still lost in thought.

This roar was like the sound of a morning bell and an evening drum.

In that instant, all the jumbled fragments of information in Lin Jie's mind suddenly came together!

"Buzz!"

Lin Jie felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck his mind.

He suddenly raised his head, his eyes instantly becoming incredibly sharp, and his entire demeanor underwent a dramatic transformation.

"I understand!" Lin Jie roared.

"If you understand, then accept the challenge!"

Seeing that Lin Jie's condition had changed, Master Wang was overjoyed and, without hesitation, threw another heavy punch straight at Lin Jie's chest.

This time, Lin Jie neither dodged nor used his magic shield to block.

He simply lowered his waist and stood up straight, took a deep breath, and relied purely on his physical strength to meet Master Wang's fist, throwing out a seemingly ordinary military-style straight punch!

"boom--!"

Two fists, one large and one small, collided violently in mid-air.

Followed by.

Amidst the horrified gazes of everyone present.

"Snap!"

A sharp, piercing sound.

The red Raghaddor Ring in Master Wang's hand, which was said to be able to withstand cosmic-level damage, was actually as fragile as glass, shattered by Lin Jie's punch, which had no magical fluctuations whatsoever...

It was smashed to pieces!

The red Ring of Raghadore is the top-tier defensive system in Kamar-Taj!

Even if an ordinary archmage used it, a regular superhuman would absolutely not be able to break it.

Not to mention a close-combat master like Master Wang who has cultivated diligently for over a decade.

But now.

Lin Jie actually smashed it to pieces with a single punch?!

The entire room was completely silent!

Mordo, Lucian, and the Ancient One—these top figures of Kamar-Taj—had their eyes practically popping out of their sockets.

Yesterday, I was such a newbie that I could barely even flip a coin.

Just one night later, how could he shatter the archmage's strongest shield with his bare hands?

This guy's definitely on drugs!

What's even more outrageous is that Master Wang truly felt that Lin Jie's punch just now didn't contain any magic power at all!

It's purely physical strength!

Master Wang stared at his empty right hand, his mind blank.

If someone punched me like that, I'm afraid several of my bones would break!

Can I still save my old life?

"I'm sorry, Master Wang. I didn't control my strength well; I used too much force just now."

Just as Master Wang was having an existential crisis, Lin Jie scratched his head and spoke with a look of apology.

It was also his first time experiencing this kind of explosive power, and he couldn't stop the car for a moment.

"Uh...ah...it's nothing, it's nothing..." Master Wang answered mechanically, feeling as if his voice was floating.

His mind is now filled with the image of the shield breaking.

"Shall I continue?"

Lin Jie rubbed his hands together, his eyes shining brightly, eager to try.

Upon hearing this, Master Wang was terrified and quickly waved his hands, "Stop, stop, stop! Let's stop here. After all, it's just an assessment. Let's not cause any deaths... no, let's not get hurt!"

Master Wang wiped away a cold sweat.

This kid's strength right now is like a monster's!

If he were to throw two more punches with all his might, Kamar-Taj might be holding a funeral today.

"Okay." Lin Jie nodded in agreement.

However, Master Wang's roar just now did indeed completely open up the Ren and Du meridians in Lin Jie's mind.

At this moment, Lin Jie's expression changed.

No longer the confusion and hesitation of before, but full of absolute confidence and focus!

As Lin Jie got into position again, Gu Yi, Mordo, Lucian, and Carter on the sidelines finally came to their senses.

boom! boom! boom!

Lin Jie and Master Wang clashed again.

The two exchanged blows at lightning speed, one attacking and the other defending, their fight a close and evenly matched contest.

If they hadn't witnessed Lin Jie's clumsy military boxing yesterday, they would definitely think he was a fighting expert who had practiced for many years.

but.

After only a few rounds, Lucian, who was watching from the sidelines, suddenly frowned, realizing something was amiss.

"Wait! Look closely! Lin Jie doesn't seem to be using military boxing anymore!"

Lucian pointed to the center of the field and exclaimed in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Mordo and Carter immediately narrowed their eyes and carefully watched Lin Jie's movements.

Upon closer inspection...

The two were dumbfounded.

Lin Jie's starting stance was clearly military boxing, so how did his moves change completely as the fight progressed?

The speed of that punch, the angle of that whip kick...

Is this some kind of Sanda (Chinese kickboxing)?!

"Holy crap, where did he learn Sanda?!" Carter's jaw nearly dropped to the floor.

Yesterday, Master Wang only taught military boxing!

Where did this kid learn those Sanda moves?!

"Did he practice Sanda (Chinese kickboxing) before?" Mordo turned to Carter, his face full of suspicion. "Are you guys teaming up to lie to me?!"

Modu refused to believe it no matter what.

Although this Sanda technique may not be considered master-level, each move is quite impressive. Without one or two years of hard training, one simply cannot achieve this level of skill!

"Big Brother! I swear I absolutely didn't!" Carter was almost in tears, and quickly whispered his explanation, "A few days ago when we were fighting aliens in New York, Master Wang was being held up by the Avengers. I asked him to help, and he told me himself that he didn't know close combat, so he used that fear magic we made up!"

Carter kept his voice extremely low, afraid that Lin Jie on the court would hear him.

However, Mordo didn't believe a word of Carter's explanation.

How can someone who's never studied Sanda (Chinese kickboxing) be this good at it?!

Do you really think I'm a three-year-old?!
