C58 His Potential Is Not as Good as Ours

As a matter of fact, just as Xue Cheng's fist was about to land, Lu Chong had already sensed the unusual movement of the punch.

It was different from the ordinary Human Rank martial skill. This was a punch that contained the Stellar Energy formed from Qi and blood.

However, Lu Chong was certain that this was not a standard Earth Rank martial skill. Therefore, he did not use any other martial skills, only increasing his strength slightly.

As expected, the moment the two fists collided, Lu Chong not only felt Xue Cheng's fist strength, but also a bone-chilling Stellar Energy. It burst out from within and surged into his body through his palm.

If he had not touched the Earth Rank martial skill before, Lu Chong might have been injured by this mountain-piercing Gang Qi.

However, Lu Chong, who trained with his seniors every day, was already very familiar with the circulation of this Gang Qi.

Thus, when Xue Cheng's Stellar Energy burst forth, he had already circulated the blood energy in his body and quietly neutralized it.

Xue Cheng, who had returned with no success, was instead directly broken by Lu Chong's increased palm force, causing his strength to instantly decrease by 50%.

He was shocked in his heart. He did not know how Lu Chong was able to break the Gang Qis technique that he had mastered, but he still did not want to admit defeat just like that.

However, before he could continue, Lu Chong had already taken the initiative to step forward and slap his palm, stopping right in front of his head.

"Thank you for letting me win, Student Xue." Lu Chong withdrew his hand and stood there, retreating.

Xue Cheng knew that he had completely lost. No matter how unwilling he was, he had nothing to say now.

"When I return, I will transfer the money to you."

A loss was a loss. This Xue Cheng could be considered magnanimous. He did not pester him. Instead, he took the initiative to speak.

"No rush, no rush..." Lu Chong instantly revealed a smile. He went forward to help Xue Cheng up and insisted on personally sending him to the military clinic.

Chung Dongye and the other instructors could not bear to look at him directly. This kid was really open-minded when it came to money.

When Lu Chong left with Xue Cheng, the students could not help but start discussing animatedly.

Martial Artist!

In this special training, there were actually three official Martial Artist among them.

In the past years, among the examinees in G City, it was extremely rare.

Especially Lu Chong, after he had won the competition in the mock exam, he continued to lead the way. Not only had he successfully broken through to the Martial Artist, he had also defeated Xue Cheng, who had a deep foundation.

They had already started to wonder if the other Martial Artist student, Hsiang Yueya, was a match for Lu Chong.

Luo Qingqing looked at Lu Chong's back as he left. She silently clenched her jade-like hands and encouraged herself, "Qingqing, you still have to work harder. Otherwise, you won't be able to keep up with his pace."

Huang Junyan stood beside Hsiang Yueya and said softly, "Do you have the confidence to defeat him now?"

Hsiang Yueya withdrew her gaze and said after a moment of silence, "No, but before and after the college entrance examination, it shouldn't be difficult."

Huang Junyan did not doubt but felt that it was only natural.

No one taught Earth Rank martial skill in high school, but with Hsiang Yueya's qualifications, it was not difficult to learn an Earth Rank martial skill in the Xiangshi Martial Arts School.

Lu Chong, who did not have an Earth Rank martial skill, would be further away from Hsiang Yueya when the time came.

When the college entrance exam really came, it was still uncertain who would be the champion.

This was the importance of having a strong background. It might not be obvious when one was at the Martial Disciple, but as time went on, the influence of resources would be greater.

So what if Lu Chong broke through to the Martial Artist first?1

With such poor conditions, could he afford the resources needed for Martial Artist cultivation? Could he cultivate the Earth Rank martial skill? Would he have the guidance of a master teacher?

Not to mention Hsiang Yueya's condition, even an ordinary rich second generation like Huang Junyan felt that Lu Chong would definitely fall behind him in the future.

"The road of martial arts is long, and it is only the beginning. The gains and losses of a city are nothing." Huang Junyan thought of his father's anxious teachings and felt that it made sense.

His and Hsiang Yueya's goal was not the small G City, but the entire Hedong Province, even Flame Country and the whole world.

That was the vast world where heroes gathered and the winds blew and clouds surged. How could a poor orphan who had a bit of talent know the importance of family background?

Lu Chong personally helped Xue Cheng to the military clinic and took care of this rich boy whom he had defeated with his own hands.

After Xue Cheng's arm was reattached and he recovered some vitality, Lu Chong asked with a kind smile, "Student Xue, are you alright?"

Xue Cheng shook his head and thanked Lu Chong, "Thank you for showing mercy and sending me to the hospital."

"However, I will challenge you again in the future when I have the chance. Not for Hsiang Yueya, but for myself." Xue Cheng said confidently.

Lu Chong suddenly showed a more sincere smile and said, "You are welcome at any time. I just won by luck. It is not a big deal."

As if he was touched by Lu Chong's humility and sincerity, Xue Cheng showed a rare smile. In his heart, he had gained some recognition of Lu Chong.

Seeing that the time was right, Lu Chong took the initiative to ask, "Student Xue, I have a question. I don't know if it should be said or not."

Xue Cheng said heroically, "Just ask. We are not enemies."

Only then did Lu Chong ask the question in his heart. Pretending to be puzzled, he said, "The last fist technique you used just now hid the Qi, blood, and astral energy. Could it be the Earth Rank martial skill?"

When Xue Cheng heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Of course it's not the real Earth Rank martial skill. I just broke through to the Martial Artist, how could I have mastered the Earth Rank martial skill?"

"Actually, this is only a technique to exert force. When you use the Human Rank martial skill, the power of qi and blood will burst out from the point of contact, attacking and disturbing the opponent's vital energy."

"Compared to the real Earth Rank martial skill, the explosive force of my Qi and the speed of condensation are far inferior." Xue Cheng said honestly.

Only now did Lu Chong understand that there was actually such a technique. It was a bit like overusing the Human Rank martial skill to the Earth Rank martial skill.

"President Faang and the other instructors, why didn't they teach me?"

Lu Chong thought. If he had such a technique, he should have been able to increase the power of the Human Rank martial skill he had mastered by leaps and bounds.

He did not ask Xue Cheng how he had learned this skill. After all, it might involve the secrets of others' cultivation, so he had to avoid it.

He believed that President Faang and the other instructors should know the key of this skill. He just had to ask them for it.

That night, Lu Chong found President Faang.

However, the answer President Faang gave him was that the pros and cons of this technique were mixed, so he did not want him to come into contact with it.

"Let me put it this way. This is an opportunistic method. It is very easy for you to become dependent on it, and it might even bring side effects to your true cultivation of the Earth Rank martial skill in the future."

"Many people think that the difficulty of cultivating the Earth Rank martial skill is too high, that's why they use such a method."

"But with your comprehension ability, cultivating the Earth Rank martial skill is the right path. You shouldn't take such a detour."

Only now did Lu Chong understand. However, he still insisted on President Faang teaching him.

As for whether it would affect the cultivation of the Earth Rank martial skill in the future, Lu Chong wasn't worried. Anyway, he could cultivate his own martial skill, so why should he worry about this?
