My family has been wielding knives for generations, but now it's my turn to wield a pen!

"They've all retreated this far?"

Jiang Xiaobai turned around and glanced at the people around him. Seeing that they had all made way, he looked slightly strange.

"Young Master Jiang, let them see just how strong your finger strength is!"

Pei Shen spoke up.

"No problem!"

As Jiang Xiaobai nodded, he slowly raised his right hand.

At this moment, Tang Ningshuang's expression became even more serious, but soon her brows furrowed.

That's right, Jiang Xiaobai's sleeves are a bit wide, and his arms are noticeably pulled back, causing his hands to be mostly covered.

It's impossible to see the specifics clearly.

The people around were also watching closely.

To unleash finger force from a distance requires a sufficiently deep internal force.

As everyone watched, Jiang Xiaobai slowly raised his left hand.

Then, he placed his left hand on his right arm, and the way he looked... really resembled someone circulating their inner energy.

"Tsk, is he really going to use finger techniques? With those skinny arms and legs, how much strength can he possibly have?"

"Pei Shashen has already said he's a ninth-realm grandmaster, so don't talk nonsense or he might overhear you."

"Grandmaster? I can't tell."

People from the martial arts world spoke in hushed tones around them.

Before the murmurs had even died down, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly shouted, "Break!"

boom!

A loud bang suddenly erupted from inside the hall.

The firelight flashed and disappeared in an instant.

Several martial arts practitioners nearby felt a sudden jolt in their ears and took a half-step back in fright.

The black scale armor on the dummy suddenly trembled.

Immediately afterwards, a gash was blown open in his chest.

Fine scales flew off.

Several fragments hit the ground, making a clattering sound.

The entire lobby fell into a deathly silence.

Those martial arts figures who were just mocking Jiang Xiaobai now stared wide-eyed, mouths agape, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

The middle-aged woman's cold smile froze.

Ling'er covered her mouth, her eyes wide open.

Pei Shen suddenly took a step forward, his eyes flashing with an alarming light.

"really!"

"This 'Finger Divine Skill' truly possesses the power to pierce armor!"

The arrogance on Old Zou's face vanished completely at that moment, his gaze fixed on the gaping hole in the Xuanlin Armor's chest, his face twitching slightly.

"How is this possible... How is this possible!"

He made this Xuanlin Armor himself.

He knew best what materials were used and how much force they could withstand.

But that last strike didn't seem like an ordinary burst of energy.

It exploded from one point, directly shattering the scales from the inside out.

What kind of tactic is this?

Tang Ningshuang didn't speak, but looked at Jiang Xiaobai's right hand hidden in his sleeve, her eyes filled with even more doubt.

Jiang Xiaobai was also somewhat surprised when he saw the gap.

This black scale armor is indeed tough.

The first strike didn't completely penetrate it.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaobai raised his right arm again.

Everyone's expression changed upon seeing this.

Again?

The next moment, Jiang Xiaobai pressed down on his right arm with his left hand and shouted again.

"Break through again!"

boom!

Another explosion.

This time, the sound was even more piercing than before.

The flames flickered.

The gaping hole in the chest of the Xuanlin Armor suddenly widened.

Large scales shattered and scattered, causing the dummy behind them to sway backward.

Click!

A crack appeared on the dummy's chest.

The entire Xuanlin Armor finally split open from the middle.

Inside the lobby, everyone was stunned.

Liu Cheng, wielding the Mountain-Splitting Blade, looked down at his chipped blade.

He then looked at the Xuanlin Armor that Jiang Xiaobai had cracked.

He swallowed hard and silently took a step back.

"This is... still finger technique?"

The burly man who had just tried using his palm force turned pale and muttered to himself.

The middle-aged woman opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.

Old Zou stood there, his face turning extremely grim.

Jiang Xiaobai slowly lowered his arm, looked at the cracked Xuanlin armor, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Heh, this soft scale armor is indeed quite impressive; it actually withstood the force of two of my fingers!"

"You've got something..."

As Jiang Xiaobai finished speaking, the entire Tianjifang hall fell completely silent.

Indeed, the martial arts figures who were just discussing this were now staring at the cracked Xuanlin Armor, speechless for a long time.

That's the Xuanlin Armor released by Tianjifang!

It cannot be cut by a knife, nor can it be injured by a palm strike.

Many martial arts masters tried to do it, but they only managed to leave a small white mark on it.

But what about Jiang Xiaobai?

Two fingers!

They forcefully punched a hole in the Xuanlin Armor!

The loud explosion just now is still echoing in many people's ears.

In an instant, everyone's gaze towards Jiang Xiaobai changed completely.

Pei Shen stood to the side, his expression even more serious.

The One-Finger Divine Skill is truly extraordinary!

Tang Ningshuang stared intently at Jiang Xiaobai's sleeve, her brows furrowed slightly.

She always felt something was wrong.

But the fact remains that the Xuanlin Armor was broken.

This left her momentarily speechless, unable to pinpoint what the problem was.

Ignoring the reactions around him, Jiang Xiaobai slowly turned around and fixed his gaze on Old Zou.

"Mr. Zou."

Jiang Xiaobai smiled faintly: "I believe that what Tianjifang says is a promise."

"They shouldn't... breach the contract, right?"

"Of course!"

Old Zou's face was somber, his gaze still fixed on the cracked Xuanlin armor.

That expression clearly showed that he was still finding it hard to accept.

This Xuanlin Armor was crafted by his own hands.

Therefore, he knew better than anyone how difficult this thing was to break.

But now, it has been broken through by a spoiled young master who is rumored to be a playboy.

Moreover, this happened in front of so many people from the martial arts world.

This is incredibly embarrassing!

"If that's the case!"

Jiang Xiaobai continued, "I hope Mr. Zou can make me a set of this soft armor."

"in addition……"

Jiang Xiaobai paused slightly: "Go to my Marquis's residence and apologize to Elder Liu."

As soon as he finished speaking, many people around looked at Old Zou.

Old Zou's face twitched slightly.

After a moment, he finally took a deep breath and looked at Jiang Xiaobai: "Alright, I will naturally make you a new set of Xuanlin Armor."

"how long?"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded.

"This armor is complex to make, and the materials are hard to find!"

Old Zou said in a deep voice, "It will take at least half a year."

"Six months?"

Jiang Xiaobai raised an eyebrow.

So long?

Six months later, the daylilies were all too cold.

Yes, he is being watched now, and someone could want to kill him at any time.

Wearing this armor again after six months won't make much sense.

"What if we're repairing this whole system?"

Jiang Xiaobai pointed to the torn Xuanlin Armor.

"The repair will take about half a month."

Old Zou looked at the armor and spoke.

"Half a moon..."

Jiang Xiaobai thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then let's fix it."

"Young Master Jiang, you don't mind?"

Mr. Zou was somewhat surprised.

"What are you complaining about?"

Jiang Xiaobai smiled and said, "Something that took me two fingers to break is already quite good."

Upon hearing this, the lips of the surrounding martial arts practitioners twitched involuntarily.

Listen to this, is this even human language?

They hacked for ages, but couldn't even break the skin.

Jiang Xiaobai, on the other hand, complained that he only broke two fingers.

Old Master Zou's expression darkened further, but he finally nodded: "Since Young Master Jiang doesn't mind, then I will repair it for you."

After saying that, he turned to leave.

"Mr. Zou, don't forget to go to my residence and apologize to Elder Liu."

Jiang Xiaobai watched the old man's retreating figure, and his voice rang out again.

Old Zou paused, his back visibly stiffening for a moment.

Finally, he left without saying a word or looking back.

After Elder Zou left, Pei Shen suddenly realized something and his gaze fell indifferently on the middle-aged woman.

"Manager Chang, I believe that what you say is as good as nails."

"There shouldn't be any breach of contract, right? I urge Manager Chang to wholeheartedly support Ling'er and me being together."

"Ugh, brother, how annoying!"

Upon hearing this, the woman next to her blushed deeply and lowered her head, her fingers gently twisting the hem of her dress.

The voice was so sweet and soft that Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help but gasp.

Good guy.

No wonder Pei Shen was so infatuated.

Anyone would be furious in this situation!
