Online game: Basic attacks increase strength; the greater the power, the more powerful it is!

The training ground fell into a deathly silence because of this punch.

Hundreds of eyes were fixed on the tall figure in the center of the arena, their gazes filled with disbelief.

That's Ruan Tiangang!

The pinnacle of martial arts in Jianghai City!

Having been famous for decades, his unique and powerful Po Jun Fist is renowned far and wide!

But this young man actually caught a punch from Ruan Tiangang!

Although it was obvious to anyone with eyes that Ruan Tiangang had not used his full strength in that punch.

Even so, it is still enough to shock people.

Ruan Tiangang withdrew his fist and scanned Jun Heng up and down with his gaze.

He could feel the power emanating from Jun Heng's fist at the moment of impact.

It was a pure, savage, brute force that seemed capable of shaking mountains.

There are no skill enhancements, no internal energy boosts, just pure physical strength.

But ironically, this force is incredibly powerful.

"Good lad!"

Ruan Tiangang suddenly burst into laughter, his voice echoing like a booming bell throughout the training ground.

"In my seventy-plus years of life, this is the first time I've ever seen such a strong young man!"

"Is your incredible strength something you were born with?"

Jun Heng withdrew his slightly numb right fist, secretly relieved.

He had used almost all his strength in that punch.

It is no exaggeration to say that his punching power definitely exceeds three thousand kilograms.

But this old man from the Ruan family was able to handle it so easily.

This level of strength is nothing short of terrifying.

I guess so.

Junheng didn't offer much explanation, only responding calmly.

He can't exactly say that this is a feedback from the game, can he?

Ruan Tiangang didn't press further, but a hint of appreciation appeared on his face.

"Where do you usually train? Why have I never seen you in the martial arts world of Jianghai City?"

Jun Heng thought for a moment, then looked up and replied.

"I've always honed my skills through games."

"game?"

Ruan Tiangang was slightly taken aback.

"You mean 'Planescape: Advent'?"

"That's right."

Jun Heng spoke frankly, his tone calm and without any attempt to conceal anything.

In their previous life, the two elders of the Ruan family entered the game relatively late, which prevented them from unleashing their full power after the planes merged.

If only they could have entered the game sooner in this life...

Therefore, in the future, it will definitely become the strongest support for China.

"I have heard of this game before. Training in a game is quite a novel idea."

Jun Heng smiled slightly, his expression calm.

"The game 'Alien Invasion' uses the latest neural link technology, so every action a player takes in the game is closely related to their real-world body."

"Especially for combat game players, constantly honing their skills in games will also improve their reaction speed and physical coordination in real life."

These words are half true and half false.

Ordinary people can indeed improve their skills and reaction time through games.

But it is absolutely impossible, or at least not possible, for him to receive the feedback of power.

After listening to Jun Heng's explanation, Ruan Tiangang nodded thoughtfully.

They seem to have developed some interest in this game.

"I see……"

But after a moment of contemplation, he suddenly changed the subject.

"Young friend, in three days, my Ruan family will be holding a martial arts tournament here."

"At that time, martial arts families and independent cultivators from Jianghai City and even several surrounding cities will gather together."

"The winner of the tournament will be granted the right to enter the Ruan family's armory and freely choose one martial art."

Upon hearing this, a collective gasp filled the room!

"What?! The Ruan family's armory?!"

"That's a martial arts manual accumulated by the Ruan family over hundreds of years!"

"The Ultimate Breaking Army Fist, the Thirteen Swords of Flowing Clouds... any one of them could be a supreme martial art capable of establishing a sect!"

"This reward is incredibly generous!"

"In previous years, the Ruan Family Martial Arts Tournament only awarded some money and the qualification to become an apprentice. Why is it suddenly like this this year...?"

Discussions rose and fell, and everyone's eyes became fervent.

Ruan Tiangang ignored the commotion below the stage, his gaze remaining fixed on Jun Heng, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

"Young friend, I see that you are exceptionally gifted, possessing divine strength rarely seen in the world."

"If they can be honed through orthodox martial arts training, their future achievements will be limitless."

"Therefore, I would like to invite you to participate in this martial arts tournament as well."

Upon hearing this, Jun Heng felt a slight surge of joy.

He came here to learn martial arts, but as a martial arts family, the Ruan family does not pass on many of their unique skills.

Unexpectedly, before he could even think of a solution, the opportunity was delivered to his doorstep so readily.

In the previous life, after the planes merged, the Ruan family did indeed shine brightly.

Ruan Tiangang's Ultimate Breaking Army Fist, Ruan Tianheng's Thirteen Flowing Cloud Swords.

But what truly left a deep impression on Junheng was not these two renowned martial arts techniques.

Instead, it is a forbidden martial art that is basically not practiced by anyone in the Ruan family: the Eight Gates Formation.

It is said that it was an ancient secret technique obtained by the ancestors of the Ruan family during a strange encounter.

Based on the eight meridians of the human body, it utilizes special breathing techniques and methods for the circulation of qi and blood.

Forcibly unleashing human potential to gain power far exceeding normal levels.

Of course, the Eight Gates Formation is indeed powerful, but it also requires extremely high levels of skill to master.

Every time you open a door, it causes irreversible damage to your body.

If one forcibly opens the sixth gate or higher, at best the meridians will be completely severed, and at worst one will die on the spot.

Throughout the Ruan family's history, many exceptionally talented individuals have attempted to master this martial art, but all have ultimately failed.

Over time, the Eight Gates Formation was listed as a taboo by the Ruan family and sealed away in the deepest part of the armory, never to be touched again.

Until the planes merged, the alien demons invaded.

An unknown member of the Ruan family opened eight gates in a desperate situation.

With a mortal body, he confronted a demon king head-on.

Although he ultimately burned his life force, he failed to kill the Demon King.

But it gave humanity the most precious chance to breathe.

If Jun Heng can obtain this manual, it will undoubtedly give him an extra valuable trump card in his future interdimensional fusion.

"Thank you for your kind offer, Elder Ruan. I will definitely participate in the martial arts tournament three days from now."

Junheng clasped his hands in a respectful gesture, his tone solemn.

Upon hearing this, Ruan Tiangang nodded in satisfaction, a hint of approval flashing in his tiger-like eyes.

"Very well! Then I'll wait and see!"

"I hope you can bring me more surprises at the conference."

Jun Heng smiled slightly, said nothing more, and turned to leave the training ground.

I took a taxi back to Emerald Bay, and it was already 3 p.m.

Pushing open the villa's front door, the living room was quiet, with only the regular ticking of the grandfather clock.

"Bright moon?"

Jun Heng called out, but there was no response.

He changed into slippers and walked to Jiang Mingyue's bedroom door, only to find it tightly closed.

"Still sleeping?"

Jun Heng muttered something to himself and didn't disturb him.

He returned to his room, his mind replaying the punch Ruan Tiangang had thrown at him earlier.
