Your skills are excellent, and now I have them too.

Chapter 57 Breaking Through the Realm

Regardless of what Fang Ziran was thinking, Lu Zhao only saw this guy as a tool to win Xu Shu's attention. So after he finished accepting the challenge, he reached out and grabbed the other's arm.

Fang Ziran wasn't a slacker; as soon as he saw him move, he instinctively retaliated, throwing a punch to intercept the incoming arm.

Snapped.

It was intercepted in an instant.

Ok?

So easy? His martial arts skills are so strong, I shouldn't have been able to get him.

The next second, he realized he was wrong.

The current situation is not a question of whether it is easy or not.

Lu Zhao's wrist was hit, and he seemed to be stunned for a moment. Then he let out a strange cry and fell to the ground with a thud.

"As expected of someone at the Steel Bone Realm, so powerful!"

Xu Shu looked at him with exasperation: I told you not to mess with him!

Fang Ziran was even more shocked. His previous move, which was ostensibly offensive but actually defensive, could not achieve this effect at all.

He's faking an accident!

But what's the point?

Seeing that his plan was working, Lu Zhao became even more excited and flipped over to grab it again.

This time, Fang Ziran was smarter. He didn't make a move; he just took a step back and avoided any physical contact with him.

Go ahead and try falling again if you dare.

*smack*

Lu Zhao lunged down in the direction he was retreating, as if he were pulled down by the strong wind.

Fang Ziran's mind was about to crash. He couldn't see any progress notifications and had no idea what the person on the other end was doing.

"Don't pretend with me!"

He meant, don't fake a fall.

However, Xu Shu, who was listening nearby, thought: "Hey kid, don't try to act tough with me."

She was worried: Was this person going to use a violent attack?

Lu Zhao lay on the ground, feeling extremely distressed, because he had to suppress his laughter and feign grief and indignation: "Do you really have to be so ruthless?"

???

Fang Ziran was dumbfounded: "I didn't do anything the hell!"

Xu Shu: How hypocritical! If this kind of person uses their connections to target us in the future, Lu Zhao will be in big trouble.

Lu Zhao got up: "No matter what! I won't give up!"

Fang Ziran: "I give up, okay? I lost, big brother."

Xu Shu: He even used sarcastic and unsettling tactics!

At this moment, Fang Ziran had forgotten the purpose of his visit. He felt only a sense of bewilderment at the unknown, mixed with a little bit of fear.

The Fang family was a prominent family in Guzhongzhou, usually associated with powerful and influential people, and always treated each other with courtesy. They had never seen such a thuggish fighting style before.

So when Lu Zhao pounced on him again, he instinctively used his real move in his panic.

Whoosh!

A thick arm lashed out with a whip.

Lu Zhao, who was about to pretend to be strange, was startled. He had activated his Eagle Vision to prevent accidental injury, so he could see the power of the punch.

"If you try to catch it normally, you won't be able to."

He made a judgment, and then decisively activated the Breath of the Dog, which he hadn't used in a long time, and threw a punch.

Bang!

A muffled thud exploded.

Both men took a few steps back, their eyes filled with apprehension.

Lu Zhao thought to himself, "I used the Breath of the Dog, and I still only managed a draw with him."

Fang Ziran was even more astonished and doubtful: "How could he, a mere Strength Warrior, withstand one of my attacks without being at a disadvantage?"

At this moment, Lu Zhao became even more convinced that his previous three-win theory was correct.

"Although we're tied now, I still have a lot of room for improvement in the Warrior Realm, while he's in the Steel Bone Realm and it'll be hard for him to improve anytime soon, so the advantage is on my side."

Overjoyed, Lu Zhao pounced on him again.

"You're not leaving here unless you beat me to death!"

At this point, Fang Ziran, who was already in shock and doubt, could no longer hold back.

Hey, what are you doing! With so many people watching, if I kill you, won't I be held accountable by the military supervisory bureau?

Are all poor people this terrifying?

He acted on instinct again, but this time his instinct was... to turn and run.

After running a few steps, he felt a little embarrassed, his pride rising, and without turning back, he shouted, "Lu Zhao! You just wait, we'll settle this in the ring in half a month!!"

Then they ran off in a flash.

At this point, the uninformed onlookers were completely bewildered.

Lu Zhao was clearly lying on the ground the whole time, so why was Fang Ziran running away?

And his level of attainment is clearly higher!

Xu Shu couldn't help but exclaim, "This is possible? I'm truly impressed!"

Seeing that they were still 3% away from replicating the chisel-finger, Lu Zhao frowned and said, "We can't be too happy yet. The showdown in half a month is not looking good."

Xu Shu's smile vanished abruptly: "Indeed."

[Golden Finger Lv1: Releases powerful energy, dealing significant damage! Loaded. Utilization: 100%, Side Effect Index: 0.]

This special skill has a very simple killing effect, nothing special.

Because it is level 1, Lu, whose strength level is already 90%, can use it normally without any side effects.

Now he understands that special skills are not like playing a video game, so there is no clear "cooldown time". The interval between uses caused by the pressure on the cardiovascular system, such as the Breath of the Dog, has to be studied by himself.

The "Chisel-Gold Finger" technique, which concentrates the release of energy, must consume a considerable amount of energy. On the other hand, it's estimated that the pressure on the meridians in the hand is also significant. The limitations will most likely be concentrated in this area. As for the specifics, including the extent of its power, we'll have to wait until no one is around to test it secretly.

There are countless special skills in the world, and it just so happens that Xu Shu has mastered the same one?

Using it in public makes it somewhat difficult to explain.

"It's okay, I'm confident."

He comforted Xu Shu with a word, and then took Murong Can, who happened to be nearby, to have dinner together.

.....

For the next two days, Lu Zhao did not go to see Old Ji. In any case, he had already finished teaching the strangely named martial art, the Three Thousand, and all that was left was to keep practicing. Unless he encountered any difficult problems, he did not need to ask.

Forget about attending classes, for the past two days he's been talking about trying out the power of the Golden Finger, but he hasn't been able to find the time because he's been practicing like crazy, trying to break through to a higher realm.

At this moment, the other three people in the dormitory went to their martial arts class. He could choose not to go, after all, he was a martial arts genius and could arrange his own training.

On the training mat, Lu Zhao's eyes were closed, and his internal energy surged and flowed within him. His bare upper body skin flushed red and then turned white, clearly indicating that he was at a crucial moment in breaking through to a higher realm.

[Strong Warrior Realm: 99%]

[Details of specific sub-sectors:]

Muscle and bone training level: 100%

Skin and flesh training: 100%

Qi cultivation level: 99%

Neurological proficiency: 100%

Meridian Training Level: 99%

Physically, he has completed all the training; all that's left is to use martial arts manuals to guide qi into his body and refine his meridians.

The fact that he was able to break through the realm so quickly is undoubtedly due to the Refinement Pill. Otherwise, based on the progress before the martial arts assessment, he was still 20% behind, which would have taken at least another five or six days. Considering that the final stage is even more difficult to break through, it might have taken seven or eight days.

At this point, the effects of the pills have been fully absorbed, and the body has reached the 40% limit of drug replenishment. Taking more medicine before breaking through the realm will not have any effect.

But this also means that Lu Zhao's body has been strengthened by training and pills, and has reached its best state. Except for those with extraordinary talent like Chen Qinhu, he is definitely among the best in normal people.

"I'm getting into it."

Suddenly, Lu Zhao felt a surge of energy expand rapidly within his meridians, making him feel as if he had instantly transformed into a kettle, his entire body filled with heat, and his skin burning with intense pain.

Lu Zhao did not use bitter endurance to block out the pain, because he wanted to experience the process of breaking through the barrier.

laugh....

His skin began to emit white steam.

This unusual phenomenon also occurred when Shi Jian first entered the Warrior Realm, because he had a better physical foundation. Lu Zhao did not experience this at that time, and the fact that he is like this now proves the effectiveness of the Cleansing Pill.

The white mist emanated for more than ten minutes. Finally, Lu Zhao felt as if the energy in his meridians had been emptied in an instant and then immediately refilled with even more abundant and new energy.

A feeling of vibrant life and everything thriving arises spontaneously.

After less than a month of training, he entered the Iron Body Realm.
