Becoming a Saint Starting with the Chasing Wind Leg Technique

Chapter 89 The Ultimate Showdown

When Chen Qianshan announced that the final showdown would be Song Jing versus Li Wei, the entire training ground fell silent for a moment, before erupting into an even louder commotion than before.

"Song Jing versus the senior brother? This—does this even need a fight?"

"Our senior brother has reached the peak of the Copper Skin Realm! His leg techniques and fist techniques are both highly proficient! I heard he's almost ready to break through to the Flesh Refining Realm!"

"Although Song Jing was lucky in the first two rounds and got a bye, what use is luck in the face of absolute strength?"

'

"Sigh, what a pity. I thought I could see another fierce battle."

"Three moves? I bet Song Jing won't last three moves!"

Almost no one was optimistic about Song Jing.

In the hearts of the disciples of Zhuifeng Martial Arts School, their senior brother Li Wei is almost invincible, a pillar of strength second only to the school master.

Song Jing, on the other hand, was just a junior apprentice who had only recently started learning the ropes and was making rapid progress, but was still relatively inexperienced.

This gap is like a chasm.

At the Broken Moon Martial Arts Academy, Xiao Miechen yawned and said to Duan Tianying beside him, "Senior Brother Duan, it seems there's nothing much to see. Shall we head back?"

Duan Tianying shook his head slightly: "It wouldn't hurt to take a look, maybe—this kid can bring some surprises?" Despite saying that, there wasn't much expectation in his eyes.

Shi Kun said in a deep voice, "Li Wei's Black Mountain Fist technique has already reached a minor level of mastery. Combined with his fully mastered Chasing Wind Leg technique, it's a perfect blend of offense and defense, making him almost invincible among those in the Copper Skin Realm. This Song Jing—is doomed to lose."

On the high platform, Deputy Curator Chen Qianshan frowned slightly, his gaze lingering on Song Jing for a moment, then looking at the calm-looking Li Wei, before finally remaining silent.

Zhou Xingyun and Zhuo Bufan stared intently at the scene, their eyes filled with worry, yet for some reason, a strange sense of anticipation also arose in their hearts.

Lin Wan'er nervously gripped the hem of her clothes.

Just then, a commotion broke out on the periphery of the crowd, and Li Ling Shuang, dressed in a light yellow outfit and with a long sword at her waist, squeezed in.

She looked travel-worn, clearly having just returned from the inner city.

"Senior Sister Ling Shuang!" A disciple recognized her.

Li Ling Shuang nodded to everyone, then immediately turned her gaze to the center of the arena. Seeing the two facing off, she raised an eyebrow: "Is it really Junior Brother Song versus Li Wei?"

"Senior Sister Li, you just returned from the inner city? Do you think Junior Brother Song has a chance?" a familiar disciple asked.

Li Ling Shuang shook her head with a wry smile and said in a low voice, "Li Wei is a man of hidden talents. Although I had some opportunities in the inner city, I don't think I have any chance of winning against him. He is not only at the peak of the Copper Skin Realm, but more importantly, he has a solid foundation and is very experienced. He is not comparable to those who rely on pills to get there. Junior Brother Song—although he has made rapid progress, he has not been around for long. I'm afraid—" She didn't finish her sentence, but her meaning was clear: she also didn't think much of Song Jing.

Song Jing took in everyone's reactions but acted as if he hadn't heard a thing.

His gaze calmly fixed on Li Wei opposite him. His blood and qi were already flowing quietly within his body. He held back his mid-stage Copper Skin Realm cultivation, and the Golden Bell Shield technique was slowly activated, with faint golden light appearing beneath his skin.

Li Wei looked at Song Jing, the faint smile finally vanishing completely, replaced by scrutiny and coldness. "Junior Brother Song, it seems your luck has truly run out. However, to stand here at all shows you have guts. Don't worry, I will show mercy; after all, you are a genius of my Chasing Wind Martial Arts School."

He emphasized the words "genius" and "show mercy" at the end, speaking with a slightly playful tone.

"Senior Brother, please." Song Jing didn't waste any words. He bowed slightly and assumed the starting stance of the Chasing Wind Leg Technique. His posture was standard, yet it also carried a unique and harmonious quality.

"Begin!" Chen Qianshan gave the order.

Li Wei made a move.

He didn't underestimate it at all; he went all out from the start!

With a burst of speed, his figure moved like a streak of azure lightning, instantly covering several meters. His right leg, like a whip, swept straight towards Song Jing's neck with a piercing sound!

This kick was fast, accurate, and ruthless, containing his powerful true energy at the peak of the Copper Skin Realm, and its power far exceeded that when he dealt with Zhou Xingyun and Zhuo Bufan!

He wanted to crush Song Jing with lightning speed, secure the victory, and intimidate the entire audience!

However, Song Jing reacted even faster than he had expected!

Windwalk!

Song Jing moved like a ghost, narrowly avoiding the fierce kick!

At the same time, his left leg silently rose up, sweeping diagonally to aim directly at the knee of Li Wei's supporting leg. The angle was tricky and the timing was precise!

"Hmm?" Li Wei was slightly surprised. Song Jing's dodging and counterattack speed far exceeded his expectations! He dared not be careless and stepped down with his left leg to block Song Jing's sweeping kick.

"Bang!"

The two legs collided with a dull thud. Li Wei felt a force no less than his own come from the other's leg, making his calf slightly numb!

"Mid-stage Copper Skin Realm?!" Li Wei's pupils suddenly contracted, and for the first time, his eyes revealed undisguised shock!

He could clearly sense that the strength of the true energy contained in Song Jing's kick was clearly at the mid-stage of the Copper Skin Realm! Moreover, it was exceptionally solid and substantial, with absolutely no sense of emptiness!

"How could he have broken through so quickly?!" This thought exploded in Li Wei's mind like a thunderbolt. He knew Song Jing had good talent, but how long had it been since the last test?

This kid actually broke through to the mid-stage of the Bronze Skin Realm without anyone noticing?! This speed is simply unbelievable!

However, the battle left him no time to think. Song Jing, having missed his first strike, advanced instead of retreating, unleashing the full power of his Wind Chasing Leg Technique!

The Swallow Steps were elusive and agile, leaving behind afterimages in the small space: the Shadow Strike was a rapid series of attacks, with leg shadows raining down on Li Wei; the Flow Breaker was powerful and heavy, and each hard impact made Li Wei's blood and qi stagnate; the Soaring Swan was like a celestial being descending from the sky, seizing the opening and striking with thunder!

What alarmed Li Wei even more was that Song Jing's application and understanding of the Chasing Wind Leg Technique was exquisite, with smooth and natural transitions, and even in some subtle changes, he seemed to be surpassing him!

This clearly shows that the Wind Chasing Leg Technique has been practiced to a state of perfection, where it can be used at will!

"His leg techniques—have actually reached a high level?! And his understanding of them seems to be even deeper than mine?!" Li Wei was increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed.

He discovered that his signature Wind Chasing Leg Technique was completely outmatched by Song Jing, and was even subtly suppressed in terms of its subtle variations!

"We can't rely on leg techniques to fight anymore!" Li Wei's eyes sharpened. He seized an opening, his body suddenly stopped, and his fists once again glowed with an earthy yellow light. He unleashed the Black Mountain Fist Technique with ferocity!

The force of his punch was like a mountain collapsing, fierce and violent, aimed directly at Song Jing's center! He wanted to use the power of his fist to break through the agility of Song Jing's leg techniques!

"Well done!" Song Jing's eyes were bright. He didn't flinch or dodge. He raised his right leg high, and the sound of thunder could be heard from his muscles and bones. He was using the Wind and Thunder Leg Technique - Thunderclap Leg!

"boom!"

The second impact of the leg and fist unleashed a shockwave several times more powerful than before! The dust and rubble on the surrounding ground were all sent flying!

Li Wei felt an unimaginable force and a sharp penetrating force coming from his fist at the same time. The power of the Black Mountain Fist was actually shattered by the opponent's kick!

He groaned, swayed, and slid back half a step, his fist throbbing with pain!

Song Jing's body trembled slightly, and he took a small step back, but his expression remained unchanged and his breathing remained steady.

"What... what kind of leg technique is this?!" Li Wei was utterly shocked. Although his Black Mountain Fist Technique was only at the minor completion stage, its power was immense. Combined with his perfected Copper Skin Realm true qi, it was enough to shatter stone tablets and split rocks!

But in that fierce clash just now, he didn't gain the upper hand?!

The power and penetrating force of Song Jing's kick were simply terrifying! This was definitely not the Chasing Wind Leg Technique!

"Could it be—the legendary, extremely difficult-to-master Wind and Thunder Leg Technique?! I vaguely remember hearing that he knew this Wind and Thunder Leg Technique before, but I didn't pay much attention to it at the time! I didn't expect this kid to actually have this talent, it's really true!" A terrifying thought flashed through Li Wei's mind, sending chills down his spine. This kid not only mastered the Wind Chasing Leg Technique, but also mastered the even stronger Wind and Thunder Leg Technique?!

The audience was completely silent; you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone, including Vice Master Chen Qianshan, Zhou Xingyun, Zhuo Bufan, Lin Wan'er, Li Ling Shuang, and even Duan Tianying, Shi Kun, and Xiao Miechen from Duan Yue Martial Arts School, stared wide-eyed, mouths agape, their faces filled with disbelief and shock!

"Mid-stage Copper Skin Realm! Song Jing is in the mid-stage Copper Skin Realm!"

"His Wind-Chasing Leg Technique—it seems even stronger than Senior Brother's?!"

"What kind of leg technique was that? The power and force were terrifying!"

"He withstood the senior brother's Black Mountain Fist head-on and didn't lose ground?!"

Zhou Xingyun trembled with excitement, Zhuo Bufan's eyes shone with a strange light, and Lin Wan'er covered her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes.

Deputy Curator Chen Qianshan suddenly stood up from his seat, staring intently at the scene, his aged eyes gleaming with sharp light.

Li Ling Shuang's bitter smile froze, replaced by extreme shock and bewilderment: "Mid-stage Copper Skin Realm—Mastery of the Wind Chasing Leg Technique—that powerful Wind and Thunder Leg Technique has improved again! He—how did he do that?!"
