Under One Person: Starting with the Dual Cultivation of Body and Soul

Li Chang'an looked down at the creature clinging to his leg like an octopus, feeling speechless. He was indeed not very good at dealing with this kind of stubborn person.

Li Chang'an sighed helplessly: "I'm just a disciple of a sect. I can't make decisions about teaching techniques. You'll have to go find my master."

As he spoke, Li Chang'an pointed to Lu Jin below the stage: "Look, do you see him? He's the one sitting at the main table. Go give him a massage and ask him for some pointers!"

Wang Zhenqiu looked at Lu Jin in the direction the finger was pointing.

Lu Jin was also staring at him.

Wang Zhenqiu opened his mouth, about to call out "Master Lu".

Then, Master Lu waved his hand and said, "Put it down!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Lin's father and Lu Linglong's father strode over.

The two men, one on each side, grabbed Wang Zhenqiu's arms like they were holding a chick, and dragged him off the martial arts stage.

After cleaning up the venue, Zhang Lingyu walked onto the stage.

As soon as Zhang Lingyu stepped onto the stage, the younger generation below the stage erupted in excitement.

Lu Linglong, Bai Shixue, and Zhi Jinhua quickly gathered together.

Bai Shixue pulled out a small notebook from somewhere and shouted at the top of her lungs:

"The betting has started! Place your bets now! Everyone, hurry up and place your bets! Guess whether Master Lingyu of Longhu Mountain or Young Master Chang'an of the Lu family will win this match! Quick, quick, place your bets!"

Seeing this, the surrounding younger generation rushed forward.

"I'm betting on Zhang Lingyu! A disciple of the Celestial Master, his background speaks for itself. One thousand dollars!"

"I'm crushing Li Chang'an. His defense, speed, strength, and recovery ability are simply all-around perfect. Five hundred!"

"I'm also betting on Zhang Lingyu! The Golden Light Mantra is the best counter to all fancy tricks."

At this moment, Wang Bing, who was dizzy from being drunk, also came over. He rubbed his eyes, glanced at Zhang Lingyu and Li Chang'an on the stage, and in his mind, Li Chang'an was definitely one of his own, so what was there to think about?

He slammed a bank card on the table with a flourish, hiccuping as he shouted, "I'm betting on Li Chang'an! 100,000!"

His heavy bet directly skewed the odds of capital allocation in the betting market.

If you bet on Li Chang'an to win, the odds drop instantly, and you earn very little. But if you bet on Zhang Lingyu to win, the odds skyrocket.

As a result, many young people who were originally hesitant took out their money to bet on Zhang Lingyu to win in order to get a high odds.

At this moment, Yuan Shixiao, who still had a bloodstain on his neck, squeezed over and unhesitatingly took out all the cash he had and bet it all on Li Chang'an's name.

Only those who have actually been beaten know how despairing that guy's strength is. As for Zhang Lingyu, she even felt that this guy might not be able to beat her.

In short, the betting odds below the stage were stirred up by Bai Shixue, Lu Linglong, and Zhi Jinhua.

The older generation sat at the main table, watching this scene, and all shook their heads with smiles.

"These kids are really lively. They're even putting up betting in this kind of situation."

"It's so good to be young, full of energy."

Lu Jin, holding his teacup, said with a stern face, "This is truly outrageous, making us all a laughingstock."

But he only talked about it; he didn't actually stop it.

On the martial arts stage, Li Chang'an and Zhang Lingyu stood facing each other.

Zhang Lingyu clasped his hands in a respectful gesture and said, "Zhang Lingyu from the Celestial Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain, please enlighten me, Senior Brother Li."

Li Chang'an returned the greeting: "Please."

Zhang Lingyu was aloof, and Li Chang'an was not a talkative person either.

After a few simple pleasantries, the competition between the two officially began.

Zhang Lingyu was not arrogant in the slightest. With a thought, golden light suddenly shone brightly around him. The golden light was not dazzling, but warm and thick, like a layer of flowing golden glass enveloping his entire body.

He raised his right hand, and golden light burst forth from his palm, transforming into a giant golden hand in mid-air.

The golden hand, accompanied by a whistling wind, reached straight for Li Chang'an with the force of Mount Tai pressing down.

The extraordinary individuals watching from below the stage were all amazed by what they saw.

"Wow, that's amazing! Zhang Lingyu is so young, yet he has already reached the level of 'transforming Qi into form' in the Golden Light Mantra. There are probably very few like him among the younger generation of Longhu Mountain."

"The golden light that has reached the realm of transforming Qi into form can not only protect the body, but also transform into any form as easily as an extension of one's own arm. It is simply a combination of offense and defense. Although Li Chang'an's defense is strong, it can't be stronger than the Golden Light Mantra, right?"

On the field, facing the imposing golden hand, Li Chang'an remained standing still, neither dodging nor flinching.

The golden hand came hurtling through the air, its fingers emitting a deep hum as they bent and stretched, and it arrived in front of Li Chang'an in an instant.

Li Chang'an struck out with his right palm, meeting the attack head-on.

"Clang!"

A sharp, metallic clang suddenly rang out, the sound waves of which caused everyone around to cover their ears.

In this collision, Zhang Lingyu's seemingly indestructible golden hand shattered inch by inch, turning into countless golden fragments that dissipated into the air.

The audience fell silent. Although they had seen Li Chang'an shatter the golden cudgel with a single palm strike before, that was, after all, a manifestation of the divine mask, and they had no idea how tough it really was.

However, they were well aware of the intensity of Zhang Lingyu's golden light, which was at the Qi Transformation Realm. Even if they fired repeatedly with a pistol, they might not be able to penetrate it. Once it was deployed, it would be no exaggeration to call it an impregnable fortress.

But now, this impenetrable wall was shattered by Li Chang'an with a single slap. How much strength must that have taken?

Others were shocked by Li Chang'an's power, but Yuan Shixiao and Wang Zhenqiu, who had competed with Li Chang'an before, were not surprised at all. It was normal that Zhang Lingyu's golden light could not withstand it.

The golden light is essentially a concrete extension of one's own Qi and spirit. Zhang Lingyu felt the terrifying force of this slap more clearly than anyone else.

The palm strike just now shattered not only the golden light, but the force also traveled back along the golden light, causing the Qi within his body to surge slightly.

weight.

too heavy!

Zhang Lingyu's expression instantly turned serious. The golden light he extended was not much different in toughness from the protective golden light, except that the protective golden light could be stacked a little thicker.

This means that the opponent definitely didn't use their full strength in that palm strike just now, which means they were fully capable of breaking through his defenses directly.

"Even in Longhu Mountain, only my senior brother's generation could break through my golden light defense so easily. Master has given me a real challenge!"

Zhang Lingyu took a deep breath and continued to activate the Golden Light Mantra. Golden light surged from his body like flowing water, forming a golden sword in front of him. He really didn't want to engage in close-quarters combat with Li Chang'an.

Seeing Zhang Lingyu's actions, the old celestial master said, "In order to enhance the overall defense and concentrate the golden light of your whole body into a single point to form a long sword, this method is a correct choice in the current situation."

"Does the old master think this can counter Li Chang'an's Triple Reversal of Life?" Feng Zhenghao suddenly asked, looking at the two young people on the field with great envy. If his own children had such talent, how wonderful that would be.

The old master glanced at Lu Jin and said, "Just look at the way Lu Jin is grinning with his big teeth showing, you can tell he can't handle this."
