The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

The cultivation of the Star Core Realm mainly focuses on strengthening the physique. Quantitative changes eventually lead to qualitative changes. Once the fourth Star Core is condensed, there will be a fundamental improvement.

At that time, the body, or certain organs, will exhibit special abilities.

And beastification is one of them.

This is also the direction for many intermediate-level warriors to improve.

"A tiger?"

At this moment, regardless of his changed physique or the markings on his body, Lei Tieming looked just like a fierce tiger.

The tiger is the king of beasts, and tiger-type beast transformation is considered one of the more powerful forms of beast transformation.

As for the specific increase in strength, apart from the sharp teeth and claws of wild beasts, it is relatively balanced, belonging to a comprehensive increase in physical attributes.

Judging by his 'intuition', Lei Tieming's strength and other physical attributes have almost doubled!

This is the power of a mid-level general.

Roar~!

Lei Tieming, now in his beast form, roared like a tiger, brandishing his metal staff, and charged at Lu Yuan once more.

"bring it on."

Facing the menacing Lei Tieming, Lu Yuan remained calm, brandishing his battle sword and taking the initiative to meet him.

In terms of strength, Lei Tieming, as a five-star warrior and after his beast transformation, is not much inferior to Lu Yuan.

In terms of skill, Lei Tieming's moves and combat techniques are naturally inferior to the Earth-rank low-grade Crack Earth, but in terms of combat experience, he is far superior to Lu Yuan.

Thus, amidst the clash of swords and the flash of clubs, Lu Yuan and Lei Tieming fought fiercely, evenly matched for a time.

"this……"

Everyone was surprised to see the two locked in a fierce battle in the video.

They initially thought that Lei Tieming could easily crush Lu Yuan.

Later, seeing Lu Yuan gradually reveal his strength, he also thought about Lu Yuan turning the tide and winning.

But unexpectedly, the two were evenly matched!

There's nothing interesting about this.

The guests gradually lost interest, while some became increasingly nervous.

Shen Fengxing.

He hadn't expected that Lu Yuan, who had just been promoted to War General, would possess such strength! Even when he brought in Lei Tieming, a five-star warrior, he couldn't defeat him in a short time.

What if, what if Lei Tieming loses?

Although reason told him that this was impossible and utterly illogical.

However, this thought kept surfacing in Shen Fengxing's mind, and it grew stronger as the fight between Lu Yuan and Lei Tieming dragged on.

After all, he had already experienced this once before.

Last time, he thought he had it in the bag, but Feng Ji ended up losing.

Feng Ji committed suicide on the spot, which not only caused the Feng family to resent him, but also led to them severing all ties with the Shen family.

Just one loss has already caused him a lot of trouble.

If he loses again this time, he'll be in even bigger trouble!

After all, he had pushed through this betting contest against the pressure from Shen Fuyue.

After the gambling match ended, Lu Yuan died and was crippled, so be it. Shen Fuyue had no reason to make things difficult for his own son over a dead or crippled person.

But if Lu Yuan wins, he will definitely be valued more by Shen Fuyue, and his status in the Shen family will rise accordingly!

At that time, Shen Fuyue might make things difficult for his own son for the sake of this promising son-in-law.

If that's the case, what should he do?

If he truly loses his father's favor, the third wife's side, and even his own mother, will not only not help him, but will even sever ties with him.

He's really doomed.

"Damn it! Lei Tieming, you absolutely can't lose!"

Watching the two fighting fiercely in the video, Shen Fengxing clenched his fists, feeling even more nervous than if he were on the ring himself.

After all, even though he was offstage, the bet he placed was by no means small.

The battle then lasted for a full twenty minutes, under the watchful eyes of everyone!

For a warrior-level expert, especially after transforming into a beast, a battle lasting twenty minutes, where they are giving it their all, is long enough.

This is similar to an ordinary person sprinting at 100-meter speed for 20 minutes continuously; the physical burden on the body is unimaginable.

Boom!

Just when everyone was losing interest, a loud bang rang out, and Lei Tieming was once again sent flying.

"what?"

Upon seeing Lei Tieming lying on the ground, panting heavily, everyone's eyes widened slightly.

Looking at the other side, Lu Yuan, who was still standing there calmly, was once again puzzled.

After fighting for more than twenty minutes, in a battle of attrition, Lei Tieming was actually at a disadvantage.

Keep in mind that he is a five-star general, while Lu Yuan is only a two-star general.

Despite being only three star cores apart, Lu Yuan surpassed Lei Tieming in terms of energy reserves—no, not just surpassed, but far surpassed him in terms of driving ability.

It's important to understand that besides strengthening the body, star cores, once condensed, are also used to store true energy. How can someone with less than three star cores' worth of true energy possibly far surpass another?

"What kind of freak is this kid?"

"Even someone with a sixth-grade aptitude shouldn't have such a reserve of energy."

"Unless, by chance, it's an extraordinary battle physique in terms of physical strength!"

"That's right, some extraordinary battle bodies can reduce energy consumption."

"That must be it!"

The crowd couldn't help but discuss and speculate again, then nodded repeatedly, thinking to themselves that it must be true.

That makes sense, after all, no matter who it is, even if they rack their brains, they could never have imagined that Lu Yuan actually has a tenth-grade aptitude!

"Good lad."

The only one who could see things more clearly was Shen Fuyue, who was at the Innate Realm.

He didn't know that Lu Yuan had a tenth-grade aptitude, but he could tell that Lu Yuan hadn't used his full strength from beginning to end!

In his opinion, if Lu Yuan wanted to, he could defeat Lei Tieming in ten minutes, not even twenty!

Given this, they deliberately delayed the process.

First, they used Lei Tieming as a sparring partner to increase his practical experience.

Secondly, and most importantly, he doesn't want others to know his methods or trump cards.

After all, this competition was being held in full view of everyone.

Seeing this, Shen Fuyue nodded secretly. Under such circumstances, he could still think things through and remain calm and composed. This son-in-law was quite good, and he liked him!

"What happened? How is this possible!"

Lei Tieming stood up, panting heavily, staring at Lu Yuan with disbelief on his face.

In those twenty minutes, the two exchanged blows a thousand times, and he blocked Lu Yuan's thousands of strikes. Every strike from Lu Yuan was of equal weight and precise to the last detail!

This is truly terrifying. It's not just about controlling strength; it's about having complete control. It's precisely because they have enough spare capacity that they can do this.

Even after he had given it his all and fought him for twenty minutes, Lu Yuan was still able to handle it with ease. How was that possible? Was he even human?

"Are you ready to admit defeat?"

Lu Yuan remained calm and asked a question indifferently.

"……No!"

Lei Tieming gritted his teeth, his gaze remaining resolute.

He absolutely cannot lose this bet, even if it means death!

"I see. Then I have no choice but to knock you down."

Lu Yuan shook his head helplessly and raised his battle sword again.

Without the slightest hesitation, he swung his sword directly.

An invisible blade of light pierced through the heavens and earth, striking directly at Lei Tieming.

Split the sky!
