Chapter 6: Knocked Back With One Punch, Who’s the Trash.
Li Haiying’s actions made Jiang Xincheng completely disappointed in this woman, a cold light flashed across his face: “Li Haiying, I’ll tell you one thing. In the Shenxia Alliance, killing people recklessly requires paying with your life, unless your strength is above the law.”
“Also, from today on, all ties between us are severed. You are no longer my girlfriend, and I am no longer your boyfriend. One last thing for you: don’t regret what you did today in the future, and never say you know me again.”
Hearing Jiang Xincheng’s words, Li Haiying trembled all over. Jiang Xincheng circulated his Primordial Force and shook off Li Haiying’s hand.
For Jiang Xincheng, who had mastered various Primordial Force application techniques from the future, this method was very simple.
“Li Haiying, are you an idiot? How could you believe what he said?” Seeing that Jiang Xincheng had escaped Li Haiying’s coercion, Liu Ping thought Li Haiying had believed Jiang Xincheng’s words and let him go, so he became furious.
Li Haiying’s face turned even paler. She glanced at Liu Ping fearfully and dared not speak.
Watching Li Haiying being scolded harshly by Liu Ping, a mocking smile appeared on Jiang Xincheng’s lips. You repay kindness with ingratitude towards those who are good to you, but cling to those who treat you poorly.
Was it worth it, throwing yourself at Liu Ping for just a bit of vanity and money, only to be heartlessly discarded after he was done with you?
Without paying any more attention to Li Haiying, Jiang Xincheng looked coldly at Liu Ping: “The two of us will fight one-on-one. As long as you can beat me, I’ll let you go immediately.”
“You… you’re not lying to me?” Liu Ping looked at Jiang Xincheng in disbelief, unable to believe that Jiang Xincheng, now free from Li Haiying’s coercion, still wanted to fight him one-on-one. How could a small early-stage Muscle-Tempering Primordial Warrior possibly be his match.
Jiang Xincheng nodded: “I’m not as untrustworthy as you. Words spoken are like water spilled; my words naturally count. Do you agree or not?”
“Agree, I agree ten thousand times.” Liu Ping nodded vigorously, afraid that Jiang Xincheng would change his mind and have his friends gang up on him again.
“Second Brother, are you crazy? You’re only an early-stage Muscle-Tempering Primordial Warrior, how can you beat Liu Ping? Liu Ping is a late-stage Muscle-Tempering Primordial Warrior, just one step away from entering the Tendon Training Realm.” Gu Yingnan said urgently.
Oldest brother Chen Dianming’s brows were also tightly furrowed: “Second Brother, now is not the time to be impulsive. Go back inside. We’ll teach Liu Ping a lesson for you today, and you can help out a bit later.”
Looking at his dorm brothers who were worriedly advising him, a smile crossed Jiang Xincheng’s face: “Brothers, don’t worry. I’m not a fool. If I weren’t confident, I wouldn’t do this.”
“And this is a matter between him and me. Just like he said, if I need my brothers’ help to fight over a woman, what kind of man would I be?”
Saying this, Jiang Xincheng looked at Liu Ping: “Liu Ping, you just said I’m not a man, and you wanted to fight me one-on-one. I accept now. But before the fight, I also want to say something to you. If you can take one punch from me tonight, I will never appear before you again. But if you can’t take my punch, then every time you see me from now on, you must call me Grandpa. Do you dare to agree?”
Hearing Jiang Xincheng’s such arrogant words, and he was only a small early-stage Muscle-Tempering Primordial Warrior, Liu Ping was also furious: “Fine, I agree. I want to see how powerful you, a mere early-stage Muscle-Tempering Primordial Warrior, really are, to dare say such things to me, a late-stage Muscle-Tempering Primordial Warrior.”
With a difference of two small stages, if Liu Ping still didn’t dare to agree, he might as well not hang around Tianhai University anymore.
Seeing Jiang Xincheng boasting so much, the dorm brothers didn’t know what to say anymore. They could only watch as the two prepared themselves, worriedly thinking about when to rescue Jiang Xincheng and then give Liu Ping a beating.
They had no intention of reasoning with a shameless pervert like Liu Ping.
“Kid, since you’re so arrogant, today I’ll let you taste my power.” Liu Ping gritted his teeth, gathering all his Primordial Force: “The gap between the late-stage and early-stage Muscle-Tempering is not something a trash like you can cross. Prepare to die.”
With a fierce roar, Liu Ping threw a punch. The wind whistled, and Primordial Force splashed, showing the power of Liu Ping’s punch.
But in Jiang Xincheng’s eyes, Liu Ping’s punch was as trashy as could be. Not only was it not a Combat Technique, but his use of the Primordial Force within his body was also very crude, utilizing less than half of its full potential.
The splashing Primordial Force might seem impressive, but it actually wasted most of the force.
If the full power of the Primordial Force in Liu Ping’s body was 100, he was currently only able to exert 30 or 40.
As for Jiang Xincheng, after five days of hard training, his Mountain-Shaking Fist had been cultivated to its peak. Not only could he unleash all the power of the mid-stage Muscle-Tempering, but it also amplified the power of his Primordial Force.
So when Jiang Xincheng threw his punch, although the momentum wasn’t as grand as Liu Ping’s and the disturbed Primordial Force wasn’t as much, its power was actually several times stronger than Liu Ping’s.
One at the peak of the mid-stage Muscle-Tempering, the other at the peak of the late-stage Muscle-Tempering – a full small stage difference. Both used their fists, colliding heavily together, but the result was astonishing.
“Ah…” Liu Ping screamed as he was sent flying, landing awkwardly in the flowerbed behind him. The bones in his right hand were partially shattered; even if healed, it would greatly affect his future cultivation.
Like needle against awl, a direct confrontation resulted in Liu Ping’s complete defeat.
Jiang Xincheng stood firm, slowly retracting his fist. He glanced at the stunned Li Haiying, a cold sneer appearing on his lips.
“Let’s go, brothers. Let’s go drink.” Jiang Xincheng said as if nothing had happened, turning to walk towards Shenzhuang Snack Street.
After a moment of stunned silence, the group of brothers behind him rushed towards Jiang Xincheng together.
“Second Brother, when did you become so strong? Even Liu Ping at the peak late-stage Muscle-Tempering couldn’t withstand a single move from you. How did you do it?”
“Second Brother, did you have some kind of encounter? Did your Primordial Force suddenly increase? Otherwise, how could you be this powerful?”
“Wow, looks like the combat ranking in our dorm is going to change completely. Second Brother, you’re too awesome.”
…
Jiang Xincheng didn’t dare tell anyone about the secret of “Devouring the Cosmos” yet, so his explanation was that he accidentally found a Mutated Yuan Crystal in a stone. After absorbing it, his strength greatly increased, reaching the peak of the mid-stage Muscle-Tempering.
Not only that, but that Mutated Yuan Crystal also refined the Primordial Force within his body, expanded his Meridians and Dantian, allowing his body to hold more Primordial Force than other Primordial Warriors of the same stage, and it was much purer.
Such things had happened before; there were news reports from all over the world, but no Primordial Warrior who consumed a Mutated Yuan Crystal had gained benefits as exaggerated as Jiang Xincheng’s.
Hearing this, the dorm brothers could only say that Jiang Xincheng’s luck was incredibly good, to actually discover such a miraculous Yuan Crystal. Not only was he fine after absorbing it, but he also turned misfortune into blessing.
After all, in world news reports, most Primordial Warriors who consumed Mutated Yuan Crystals ended up very badly. Only an extremely small portion gained benefits, and those benefits were limited.
Earth humans’ utilization of Primordial Force had just begun; they couldn’t even distinguish between Mutated Yuan Crystals and normal Yuan Crystals. So, many people didn’t absorb Mutated Yuan Crystals intentionally seeking unexpected benefits, but mistook them for normal Yuan Crystals.
In the eyes of his dorm brothers, Jiang Xincheng was one of these unlucky people. Luckily, that Mutated Yuan Crystal contained no poison, otherwise Jiang Xincheng would have been in danger.
Feeling a sense of belated fear, the dorm brothers forced Jiang Xincheng to drink heavily. Unfortunately, Jiang Xincheng was fine, but they all ended up drunk one by one. In the large private room of the restaurant, only Jiang Xincheng remained sober.
