We made you practice martial arts, and you've mastered the Great Golden Body?

Chapter 213 Instant Kill
"Could it be that I'm getting old and my eyesight is failing?" Ding Lei stared blankly at the boy's actions, and suddenly fell into a state of existential doubt.

There was nothing else to it but the fact that Shen Bailian killed the ferocious beasts so easily. With a simple swift stroke of his blade, several powerful second-tier ferocious beasts, the Flamingos, were cleaved in two.

It gives people the feeling of 'I could do that too'.

Of course, the most important thing is Shen Bailian's appearance. He is too young. No matter how you look at it, he is at most a boy who has just entered the martial arts university.

Leaving aside Ding Lei's existential crisis, Shen Bailian is currently in an exceptionally high state of excitement.

"This is too easy. So many military merits have been earned so easily." As Shen Bailian raised his knife, he also multitasked, shifting some of his attention to the light screen in front of him.

As one flamingo beast after another perished, his military merit points soared.

In less than a minute, the military merit points in Shen Bailian's account rose from zero to 264.

In the Great Xia Dynasty, killing a Tier 2 ferocious beast will earn you two military merit points.

This means that Shen Bailian killed 134 flamingo beasts in less than a minute, as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

And this number is still rising rapidly.

"The effect of simultaneously improving both mental strength and martial arts realm is indeed different from improving a single attribute." Shen Bailian's consciousness sank down, silently sensing his own state.

He could unleash this level of sword energy thousands of times without exhaustion, mainly due to his powerful mental strength and a slight grasp of the sword intent.

Of course, while this kind of blade energy is effective in killing second-tier ferocious beasts like flamingos, it is not as powerful against martial artists of the same tier and level.

It might not even break through the defenses.

However, it is just right for clearing out fodder and gaining military merit.

After a while~
"That's about enough. We need to speed up the cleanup, otherwise all those military merits will be handed over to others." Shen Bailian's figure moved slightly, and his speed exploded to a terrifying level in an instant.

In the eyes of the expedition team members, the boy's figure seemed to appear in a flash, instantly appearing a hundred meters away.

"Wow!"

A terrifyingly sharp blade of light swept across the sky, causing the air to compress violently and rapidly. The restless energy of heaven and earth gathered on the blade's edge like docile sheep.

Subsequently.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

Amidst a series of terrifying explosions, many flamingos were caught off guard and met the terrifying blade head-on, their bodies exploding into pieces.

It exploded into a powdery mess of blood and foam.

Shen Bailian's eyes were cold, and he didn't care about it at all. In a flash, he moved to another group of flamingos, and his blade suddenly burst out.

Although he hasn't experienced hundreds of decent battles yet, the mental fortitude he has cultivated is in no way inferior to that of seasoned veterans.

Even better.

The blade faces outwards, and the back of the blade faces inwards.

Shen Bailian understood this point from the beginning: what is the purpose of martial arts cultivation?
Being poor cares themselves, being wealthy cares the world!
Although Shen Bailian was the only one killing flamingos here, the speed at which those flamingos disappeared was comparable to the combined efforts of several expedition teams.

It's truly astonishing.

"He, he... he's ridiculously strong, isn't he?!" Many members of the exploration team held their breath, watching everything unfold before their eyes. Beneath their calm faces, a storm was brewing.

It's just too strong.

Is this really the level of skill expected at this age?

Some members of the expedition team, watching Shen Bailian's exhilarating battle, felt their weapons itching to be used, wanting to join the feast of dividing up military merit points.

but.

"Just bear with it."

"Don't make a move!" Ding Lei immediately gave the order to his team members.

Such a powerful person is not someone they can afford to offend. Although they have a surveillance system, if they try to steal military merit points, that person won't endanger their lives.

But it only means that it doesn't endanger life.

This is the privilege of the strong, an innate privilege that is universally acknowledged even though it is not explicitly stated in any law.

"Captain, you just said those things, are you going to get beaten up by him later?" A team member sent a message in a low voice in the team channel.

All of a sudden.

All the idle members of the expedition team turned their attention to Ding Lei, some with sympathy, some with pity... and of course, some with schadenfreude.

"Probably, maybe, possibly, should, should... probably not, right?" Ding Lei swallowed hard, remembering his previous words, and replied tremblingly.

At the same time, his back was instantly covered in cold sweat, soaking his undershirt.

That's what he said, but in reality, Ding Lei was gambling. He was betting that Shen Bailian would have a better temper, be more magnanimous, and wouldn't hold a grudge against him.

however.

Some people are happy, some are sad, and some people like to find joy in others' misery.

"The market is open! The market is open!"

"Let's take a gamble and see if our captain gets beaten up by him. The odds are 1 to 3, so hurry up and place your bets... Don't miss this opportunity!"

"I bet the captain will get beaten up for being a smart aleck, three hundred bucks!" "Me too, but I'm betting four hundred bucks!"

"..."

"Then I'll bet on it, three hundred yuan, please!"

"Captain, what are you betting on?"

"Nonsense, what else could I bet on?" Ding Lei's face darkened slightly upon seeing this. After hesitating for a moment, he said angrily, "If I bet on myself, I'll get beaten up! Five hundred yuan."

Five hundred yuan was the maximum amount set by their expedition team.

After all, a little gambling is harmless, but excessive gambling is harmful. A few hundred Xia coins are worth millions for any member of the exploration team.

A few hundred Xia coins are no different from "one or two yuan" in the eyes of an ordinary family.

"???"

The channel fell silent instantly; the noisy chatter vanished in an instant, and everyone stared blankly at Ding Lei not far away.

"Don't you understand? The captain is betting on both sides." Someone pondered for a moment and then explained smugly, "If the captain hadn't gotten beaten up, he would have only lost a few hundred Daxia coins."

"A few hundred Xia coins? That's not even enough for the captain to have a meal. It's insignificant."

"If the captain really gets beaten up by that guy later, he can still get at least 1,500 Xia coins afterward. Either way, he won't lose out."

"Holy crap!" The rest of the expedition team were stunned upon hearing this, staring dumbfounded at the man. They then silently gave their captain, Ding Lei, a thumbs-up and exclaimed in amazement.

"As expected of the captain, your mind works so fast!" "Hahaha, of course..." Ding Lei paused for a moment upon hearing this, looking at the admiring gazes of the crowd, before quickly realizing what was going on.

However, he was thinking to himself, 'Was I really that far-sighted?'

Sudden.

"Make way." A familiar voice rang in Ding Lei's ears. Instantly, the primal force within him surged, and he subconsciously moved to the other side.

"Boom!"

"Clang!" "Bang!" Hearing the continuous explosions of thunder in his ears, Ding Lei turned his head and saw a scene that made his heart tremble.

That was a completely one-sided battle!

Amidst the flamingo beast tide, Shen Bailian unleashed astonishing speed and power, slashing down with his blade, unleashing a powerful burst of energy several meters long.

Some of the flamingos on the path were pulverized by the blade's energy, while others, despite managing to dodge in time, still had a wing torn off by the aftershocks and cried out as they flew into the embrace of the earth.

"Boom~"

The air surged violently, the air, compressed into a tangible mass by the gale, burst forth with a fierce white light, and the thick sea of ​​clouds was broken through in an instant.

The winds and clouds surged, thunder roared, and sword energy surged wildly, creating a scene of impending doom.

"A martial arts prodigy! This is definitely a martial arts prodigy!" Ding Lei stared intently at the black figure.

However, he discovered a sad problem: with his level 18.8, which was close to the late stage of the Transcendent Realm, his eyesight was showing signs of failing to keep up with his opponent.

Not to mention seeing clearly the opponent's specific moves.

However, having been a Transcendent Realm martial artist for nearly ten years, Ding Lei could roughly judge the opponent's physical fitness level, which was at least above level 20.0.

A martial artist of this caliber, who is also a martial arts prodigy, possesses a single-arm punch with a maximum force of at least 360 tons, and a linear burst speed of over 300 meters per second.

"Die! Die, all of you!" Shen Bailian looked at the seemingly endless flamingos before him and gradually entered a state of full power, his sword light as continuous as a raging sea.

A terrifying shockwave erupted, impacting all directions. Under such power, many early-stage second-tier flamingos were instantly killed merely by the aftershocks of the battle.

Even the shattered bones moved at an astonishing speed, producing a loud crackling sound. If they were to strike an ordinary martial artist at the Life Establishment Realm, they would either die or be seriously injured.

fortunately.

There is no one in this vicinity who is a martial artist at the Life Establishment Realm, and correspondingly, ordinary martial artists at the Life Establishment Realm are not qualified to arrive here.

In addition, Shen Bailian had been intentionally guiding the flamingos to move in other directions, and the flamingos were as fragile as tofu to Shen Bailian, easily broken at the slightest touch.

Therefore, it has not caused a wider aftershock for the time being.

"this?"

"Is this really the strength that someone his age should have? He's just too strong. I'm afraid even the captain wouldn't last a single round against him."

The members of the expedition team retreated in all directions, their eyes glued to the boy's battle despite their fear.

"Looks like I'll have to give these brats some extra training when we get back." Ding Lei, who was standing not far away, turned dark upon hearing this.

It is indeed a fact that he couldn't last a single round against that boy.

But is it really okay to say it like that? It shows no regard for his status as team leader.

Although the members of those exploration teams were all second-tier martial artists, their strength was far inferior to Ding Lei's.

However, they were just watching for fun, since no matter what, the boy had clearly already regarded the flamingos in this sea of ​​clouds as his meal.

If they make any rash moves, they could easily be accused of stealing kills.

Of course, some members of the expedition team cleverly turned on the screen recording function of their smart bracelets, wanting to record this scene and post it on Starlink to gain more followers.

The headlines are—"Shocking! An unexpected encounter with a martial arts prodigy!" "Shocking! Why is he called a martial arts prodigy?!" "..."

Such things attract the attention of passersby.

But soon they discovered a sad fact: the boy was moving too fast, and even a high-speed camera could hardly capture a clear image of him.

however.

What these expedition team members didn't know was that even if the high-speed camera on the smart bracelet could capture Shen Bailian's image, it would automatically blur the pixels under the control of the body's intelligent central hub during the summer.

With the sound of thunder, ten minutes had passed without anyone noticing.

The intensity of the battle within the sea of ​​clouds was rapidly decreasing, and the continuous roars, cries, and howls that resembled torrential rain were becoming sparse.

"Roar!" The remaining powerful second-tier peak flamingo beasts glared angrily at the cold-eyed youth and let out a furious roar.

Then, with a flap of its wings, a surge of air currents propelled it rapidly in all directions.

They chose to run away!

In the brutal fighting—no, it should be said that it was a one-sided massacre—the flamingos had come to a complete realization that their anger was futile and could not change anything.

"call!"

Shen Bailian stood in the void, choosing not to pursue the flamingo beasts. Firstly, the sky was their home ground, and at such a straight distance, it would be difficult to catch up with avian beasts that were known for their speed.

Secondly, the opponent was also very clever in choosing to flee in all directions. If you choose to pursue, you can only deal with one at a time and get two military merit points, which is too low cost-effectiveness.

These fleeing ferocious beasts can be dealt with by the Sky Eye Laser System or by nearby exploration teams.

He had already eaten the meat, so naturally he should leave some soup for the others.

"Beep~" "Beep~"

After only a brief pause, the smart bracelet vibrated again, indicating that there were martial artists nearby caught in the beast horde.

Shen Bailian glanced back at the man with the fluffy hair, then without hesitation, he sped off towards the location of the person seeking help, based on the information displayed on the light screen.

……

"when!"

When Ding Lei met Shen Bailian's gaze, which was calm to the extreme, his weak spiritual sea trembled violently, as if a great bell had been struck.

His body felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar; a chill rose from the soles of his feet and traveled through the meridians of his limbs to his brain.

Freeze that sea of ​​spirit directly.

The primal force within his body also lost control in that instant, galloping wildly like a runaway horse, causing his figure, which had been standing in the void, to plummet downwards.

"team leader!"

"Quickly, save him..." Seeing this, the other team members unleashed their inner energy without restraint and rushed anxiously towards Ding Lei's location.
"I'm fine, don't worry."
