Chapter 86 Advancement! I'll deal with you when we get back!
Su Yu spread his five fingers, and the large tendons snapped open.
Dozens of flying stones poured out like a torrential rain of pear blossoms, each carrying a terrifying spiral force, emitting a shrill shriek in the air.
Bang! Bang! Bang—
Like a sudden downpour of rain on banana leaves, the relentless, teeth-grinding sound of the stones struck Sun Shi was abruptly halted by the violent rain of flying stones, forcing him to retreat step by step!
Pain! Excruciating pain!
Although the Nine Revolutions Iron Armor Technique is unparalleled in defense, this rain of flying locust stones is too dense and too tricky!
Each blow struck a different spot, either a joint or the face. The shock to the skin prevented the body's energy from circulating in time, and bruises instantly spread across the entire body.
"Ouch! That hurts so much!"
Sun Shi couldn't help but let out a scream, his arrogant image completely vanished.
The entire audience erupted in uproar.
Everyone was stunned, never expecting Su Yu to have such a powerful move.
In the crowd, a martial artist dressed in a yellow robe with copper coin patterns trembled with excitement: "Yes—yes—golden rain is falling from the sky!"
He was a martial artist from the Money Gang, and he recognized it at that moment. This move, "Scattered Gold," was a powerful technique that only a Money Thrower at the Perfect Realm could use!
Someone has actually mastered the art of tossing coins to perfection; that's terrifying!
You should know that even the most talented fighter in the gang has only just reached a high level of skill after decades of training!
Who exactly is this Su Yu?
No, no, no, we must tell the gang leader about this. Once we've practiced the Money Throwing technique, we're all family!
The gang is on the verge of collapse due to the suppression by the Water Snake Gang, and we desperately need a skilled fighter like this!
Lin Jing looked at the back of the man who stood with his hands behind his back, suppressing Sun Shi with just a handful of stones. Her beautiful eyes sparkled, and she couldn't help but chuckle.
"This guy—he's always so unpredictable."
A strange sense of security arose spontaneously.
The other martial artists were even more shocked; this person's skill with hidden weapons was simply too strong!
This move, showering gold everywhere, was just like a fairy scattering flowers!
If you were facing them, you wouldn't be able to dodge at all!
The power of those flying locust stones was terrifying. Even with Sun Shi's strength at the first acupoint and the defense of the Nine Revolutions Iron Armor Technique, he was still unable to completely defend against them.
If a martial artist with acupoints were to face him, he would likely be injured within a few moves.
If we were to name the most horrified and distressed person among them at this moment, it would undoubtedly be Chen Fan.
His eyes were filled with disbelief as he watched the powerful Sun Shi being suppressed in place by Su Yu, unable to even get close to him!
"How is this possible—his concealed weapon skills are so formidable? Even Sun Shi couldn't get close?"
Wasn't he practicing the Spirit Ape Demon-Subduing Blade just like me? When did he acquire such formidable hidden weapon skills?
Although he found it hard to believe, the facts were right in front of him, leaving him no choice but to accept them.
"No! That's not right!"
Chen Fan took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shock in his heart, and frantically tried to make amends in his mind.
"This must be because he felt he lacked talent in swordsmanship, so he neglected it and focused on practicing this kind of unorthodox method!"
"Hmph, Su Yu, you're hopelessly stupid! In martial arts competitions, the final battle is fought with raw strength! Hidden weapons are nothing but fancy tricks, only useful for a quick sneak attack!"
"Furthermore, your hidden weapon skills have already been exposed. The final stage of this martial arts examination is a ring battle, so no one will give you another chance to launch a sneak attack!"
"Your hidden weapon will be useless then!"
Thinking of this, Chen Fan's expression returned to calm, and he looked coldly at Su Yu and Sun Shi.
Just you wait, you all just wait. Once I, Chen Fan, take the top ten, I will soar to new heights once again!
"Clang!" A gong rang out.
"Time's up! The second stage, 'Iron Chains Across the River,' is over!"
A referee at the Body Refinement Realm landed gracefully in the center of the platform, his voice booming like a bell.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; they had finally advanced!
Although the match was over, Sun Shi's gaze remained fixed on Su Yu. However, seeing the referee nearby, he made no further moves.
"Su Yu, is it? — I'll remember you." Sun Shi grinned, dropping all pretense to reveal a chilling smile. "Please, don't run into me in the ring, or I'll crush your bones one by one!"
Su Yu casually tossed a flying locust stone aside, his expression indifferent: "This is also what I wanted to tell you."
If Sun Shi thought he only had this hidden weapon technique, he would be sorely mistaken.
If we really run into each other then, I wouldn't mind letting him try out the power of the Spirit Ape Demon-Subduing Blade!
"Brother Su! Thank you for your help!" Lin Dong strode over and solemnly clasped his hands in a fist salute. If Su Yu hadn't intervened in time, the two siblings would probably have perished here.
"There's no need for thanks between friends," Su Yu waved his hand.
Lin Dong didn't say much, but he secretly remembered this kindness and regarded Su Yu as a true friend.
Lin Jing hung the long whip back at her waist, swayed her slender waist as she walked over, reverting to her usual fiery demeanor: "Su Yu! Consider this a favor I owe you. Come on, let's go back to the city and I'll treat you to a good meal!"
Su Yu looked at her with a half-smile: "Then—are we still going to have the competition?"
"What a load of crap!"
Lin Jing slapped Su Yu on the back, saying in embarrassment and anger, "You did this on purpose, didn't you? How could I possibly beat a pervert like you right now!"
'
"What about the stakes?" Su Yu asked in a low voice, his tone suggestive.
Upon hearing the bet, Lin Jing's ears instantly turned bright red. She glanced at the surrounding crowd, glared fiercely at Su Yu, and bit her lip, saying, "I'll deal with you when we get back!"
Heihe Ferry Terminal, next to the Lin family's carriage.
Seeing that the three had returned safely, Lin Wanzhu finally felt relieved.
"Did they all advance?"
"You've advanced, Sister Lin," Lin Dong said.
"That's good. Let's go. Lin Dong, you two go back first. I'll take Junior Brother Su to the martial arts school to see Master."
"Sister Lin, there's one more thing."
"What is it?"
Lin Dong's expression was grave. He said in a low voice, "Sister Lin, although we advanced this time, we've gotten ourselves into trouble. Sun Shi from the Ironclad Martial Arts Academy—we've made an enemy of him."
He recounted the conflict that took place on the platform in detail.
After hearing this, Lin Wanzhu frowned slightly, then sneered, "Although the Ironclad Martial Arts School is strong, my Lin family and the White Ape Martial Arts School are not to be trifled with! They wouldn't dare to act recklessly."
"Especially with my master around, the two families won't have too much conflict over a few disciples."
"But—" she changed her tone, her gaze sharpening, "there are rules on the arena. If you really encounter one, be extremely careful!"
"If all else fails, just admit defeat!" Lin Wanzhu reminded Lin Dong and his sister.
"As for Su Yu—" Lin Wanzhu turned to look at Su Yu, a glint of ruthlessness and anticipation flashing in her eyes: "If you're confident, then give him a good beating!"
"What if Sun Yan stands up for his brother?" Su Yu asked.
"Sun Shi has an older brother, and you, Su Yu, have your senior sister, me! If he dares to suppress you with his cultivation level, I will take action!" Lin Wanzhu said decisively.
Looking at the domineering and protective senior sister in front of him, Su Yu felt a warm current surge in his heart.
It feels great to have someone back you up.
White Ape Martial Arts School, main hall.
"Good! Good! Good!"
Upon hearing that the two had both advanced, Qin Fangqiong exclaimed "Good!" three times, her face beaming.
"The final stage: the arena battle!"
He stared intently at Chen Fan and Su Yu: "The rules are simple: two-on-one duels, the winner advances. If you can win two consecutive matches, you'll be in the top ten!"
"Once you make it into the top ten, you'll become a squad leader in the enforcement team! You'll wield real power, receive a monthly salary of two hundred taels of silver, and have a limitless future!"
"You two must give it your all!"
Qin Shi's words were like a fire, instantly igniting the ambition in Chen Fan's eyes.
He was so excited that he was trembling all over.
Finally—finally, we've reached this point!
If he wins two more games tomorrow, he can advance to the top ten, marry a woman from a prestigious family, and reach the pinnacle of his life!
"Rest assured, Master!" Chen Fan replied loudly, his voice slightly shrill with excitement. "This disciple will definitely strive for a top ten finish and live up to Master's high expectations!"
Su Yu stood to the side, his expression calm as still water.
Top ten?
This is something he absolutely has to get!
