Starting as an infant, with parents who are blond-haired delinquents?

This unique offensive style and the profound level of coordination with martial arts techniques were enough to move Zhang Chaoqiang, and he was able to study and learn the artistic conception between the opponent and martial arts techniques from Gu Yizheng's attack methods.

Zhang Chaoqiang is especially grateful to Gu Yizheng for enabling him to fully learn and copy the work.

Through continuous wind fist strikes combined with dazzling and spreading techniques, Zhang Chaoqiang gradually improved his connection with martial arts as he experimented with the tornado storm, and actually succeeded in grasping the so-called essence.

The time will absolutely not exceed ten minutes.

This is not only due to Zhang Chaoqiang's keen sense of smell for monsters, but also to his innate skill of imitation and learning.

The spiritual essence that brings about the development and transformation of martial arts is generally not simply an increase in spiritual power and attack power.

Rather, they are some special effects.

For example, the Wind-Breaking Tiger Fist that Gu Yizheng previously demonstrated carries special attack methods and effects, which are the transformation of his fighting spirit and killing intent into something substantial...

The blood-red mist posed a great threat to martial artists other than Gu Yizheng himself; it would explode violently upon contact.

The same applies to Zhang Chaoqiang's wind fist right now.

He and Wind Fist developed a shared essence, and Wind Fist's essence was equally dazzling. It not only attacked at the original wind speed, but also generated a certain wind force field in the superposition of winds.

In other words, apart from the tornado that Zhang Chaoqiang has created now, it won't be so troublesome for him to replicate the trajectory of the tornado with special wind fists again in the future.

With a single move, a tornado filled with countless storms appeared, a transformation of the wind fist's effect and power under the divine state.

Although the overall spiritual energy intensity and attack power of the Wind Fist will not change, its attack frequency has changed from the original area-of-effect strike to repeated area-of-effect strikes, multiple times in succession.

Just like a blender, it rotates at a high frequency inside, and the wind impacts people at a frequency of up to 5 times per second.

Some people may be able to withstand a hit with a strength and attack power of 2000P.

But what if the body is struck with this force and intensity multiple times in a short period of time?

Then it would be absolutely unbearable. Even the weakest attack, if it occurs thousands upon thousands of times, will be able to display astonishing power!

Therefore, after Zhang Chaoqiang grasped the profound essence of the Wind Fist…

They then stopped deliberately simulating tornadoes.

Because this would cause him to spend a lot of his energy on this aspect.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Yizheng suddenly felt the fiery tornado surrounding him stop.

Just as he was feeling puzzled, he wondered why Zhang Chaoqiang, who had just comprehended the Divine Essence Realm, would suddenly stop.

wrong!

Suddenly, a storm, identical to the one before but with more frequent and terrifying force, appeared.

Subsequently, during the endless onslaught, some situations arose that left him completely helpless.

Now Zhang Chaoqiang no longer needs to painstakingly manage and simulate the rotation trajectory of the tornado.

This divine state can be automatically triggered simply by using a wind fist within a certain range.

This state is indeed very common under the current circumstances, and for Zhang Chaoqiang, releasing it is easy and not worth mentioning.

As a result, the energy and attention he focused on the Wind Fist were finally reduced again and again, directly accounting for less than 20% of his energy and attention.

This allows Zhang Chaoqiang to focus most of his thoughts, energy, and attention on synthesizing artificial crystal nuclei within a relatively large area.

It is precisely during this stage that Zhang Chaoqiang has been able to achieve his current leapfrog leading position.

The two are currently in completely different states.

Although some of Zhang Chaoqiang's power was affected by the divine essence created by Gu Yizheng's Wind-Breaking Mountain Tiger Fist and the resulting explosion of blood-red mist.

Compared to Gu Yizheng, whose body is now almost on the verge of collapse, Zhang Chaoqiang's overall condition is already quite good.

Then, in the current situation, the contrast between the two is indeed too obvious.

Furthermore, in the synthesis of artificial crystal nuclei.

Gu Yizheng and Zhang Chaoqiang also underwent earth-shattering changes.

From the very beginning, under Gu Yizheng's proactive attack, a synthesis state emerged that was more advanced than Zhang Chaoqiang's.

The situation changed when Zhang Chaoqiang took action.

At that time, the positions and progress of both were completely reversed and could not be reversed.

Zhang Chaoqiang has now completed the synthesis of the second artificial crystal core.

The time was only eighteen minutes.

However, ever since Gu Yi was trapped in the fiery tornado and was in a state of panic, his speed has plummeted.

This also means that he put less and less effort into the synthesis project, which ultimately led to a situation that was completely beyond saving.

Even compared to Zhang Chaoqiang's rapid progress, his progress is negligible; the synthesis of the first artificial crystal core has not yet been completed.

With this comparison, Zhang Chaoqiang already knew that he had the upper hand.

However, his desire to tease and toy with Gu Yizheng will not stop for the time being.

After all, this person with connections had indeed hidden his abilities quite well. If Zhang Chaoqiang hadn't known that he was hiding his strength, he really wouldn't have thought that the rules of the competition would apply to him.

Unfortunately, the other party guessed wrong.

Originally, it was thought that Gu Yizheng, a peak second-tier martial artist with the true strength of the third tier, also possessed the realm of martial arts essence.

In any case, all things considered, he is basically much stronger than Zhang Chaoqiang was before the competition.

They simply couldn't believe that Zhang Chaoqiang's true strength was far greater than they had imagined.

It is truly terrifying.

Unfortunately, only Gu Yizheng in the Synthesis Space has this idea right now; the others have no idea what is happening inside.

The specific events and scenes were completely obscured by the black smoke in their eyes.

Time passed second by second, and Gu Yizheng, who was in the center of the tornado vortex, was constantly being assaulted by the storm.

At the center, the storm's destructive power is lowest, while the surrounding tornado barriers are most destructive, meaning the frequency and intensity of the storm are higher than at the center.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to trap and exhaust the other party.

Subsequently, under the current adjustment phase, outsiders still don't understand what exactly happened inside.

"Guess who will win between Gu Yizheng and Zhang Chaoqiang? Who will take the championship?"

If Zhang Chaoqiang wins this time, he will have won two first places out of the three assessment competitions, which will basically secure him the overall first place in this synthesis competition.

If Gu Yizheng takes first place in this efficiency competition, then the third match, Synthesis, will be at match point!

The true winner will be decided in the third test.

"It's hard to say, but don't forget where this thick black smoke came from."

It's the effect brought about by Gu Yizheng's martial arts prowess that makes me personally lean towards Gu Yizheng!

"Perhaps not necessarily. Isn't Zhang Chaoqiang's true strength also worth mentioning?"

No one knows exactly how far his true strength can go; I think it's hard to say.

Inside the synthetic space, Gu Yizheng, who was constantly being attacked by tornadoes, had already begun to weaken himself in the storm.

At the twenty-first minute, despite his weakened state, he finally succeeded in synthesizing the first artificial crystal core.

"I'm afraid Zhang Chaoqiang is almost finished synthesizing the second artificial crystal core by now, right?"

In reality, Zhang Chaoqiang was much faster than Gu Yizheng had imagined... no, not just a little bit faster.

Instead, it was significantly faster.

Furthermore, now that Zhang Chaoqiang has grasped the essence of martial arts, he doesn't need to expend much energy at all.

Gu Yizheng underestimated Zhang Chaoqiang's true strength, overall synthesis skills, and ability to multitask.

Nearly twenty minutes later, the black mist in the synthetic space gradually changed from its original dense state to a thin, light color.

Twenty minutes later, the audience below the field was gradually able to see the situation and circumstances clearly from the dissipating black fog.

Of course, the overall state is not yet fully visible to people, because although the black mist in the synthetic space has dissipated somewhat.

It's not as obstructive to the viewer's view as before, but it's still somewhat blurry.

All that could be seen was a blurry figure.

Through the slowly dissipating black mist, they could see only a blurry figure and outline of a person.

What's going on here?

Suddenly, many people expressed their doubts in this way.

"How come there's only one person's outline in the synthesized space? Is this Zhang Chaoqiang or Gu Yizheng? And where is the other person...?"

"Also, what exactly is this constantly surging vortex? Could it be that the explosion from earlier is still ongoing?"

"seems not."

What exactly is that thing in there?

The more ambiguous something is, the more curious they become.

The less they knew about the actual state of the battle, the more they wanted to know.

Immediately afterward, under these circumstances, they felt an itch to go inside and dispel all the black mist that was obstructing their view.

Xu Shanji and Lei She were in the middle. Xu Shanji stroked his beard and naturally didn't pay much attention to Lei She, who seemed a little excited.

It's possible that Lei She believes the contestant surrounded by the vortex is Zhang Chaoqiang, Gu Yizheng's opponent.

In fact, this view is not wrong. After all, it is a matter of first impression. Lei She believes that his student's ability is stronger than Zhang Chaoqiang's, so the person he supports is definitely Gu Yizheng.

But gradually…

The black mist dissipated faster and faster over time, gradually returning to its original state from a state where black smoke filled the entire synthetic space.

As the smoke dissipated, they prepared for the final synthesis sprint.

However, it is worth mentioning that Gu Yizheng's body and will are really quite tenacious, which explains why he has such good skills in martial arts and synthesis.

From this battle, it was clear that he had already been unable to bear the physical toll for ten minutes.

But they persevered through Zhang Chaoqiang's fiery storm.

Suddenly, Zhang Chaoqiang bestowed the name "Flame Storm" upon the combined attack of the Blazing Eyes and the Wind Fist imbued with divine charm!
