Chapter 125: A Familiar Script
The leaves and branches of the Ancient Forest scattered, with fragmented sunlight piercing through the gaps onto the ground.
The eyes of all the martial artists waiting to enter turned somewhat serious.
Su Tu's long fist struck down, unstoppable, each punch carrying seven layers of killing power. The Prajna Seven Kills at the Observing the Micro level possessed incredibly terrifying destructive power.
The sound of air explosions continuously blasted in the air.
Tuoba Yutian was forced to retreat repeatedly, yet the golden light flickered on his body, with Qi-Transformed Void Armor enhancing himself, resembling a golden-armored divine being.
Although suppressed by Su Tu and appearing somewhat embarrassed, his aura remained steady as a mountain, clearly unscathed at the core.
"Don't push me too hard!"
Tuoba Yutian felt a surge of frustration; he had never encountered someone like this before. During the New Star phase, it was usual for everyone to probe each other. Simple verbal provocations were nothing.
Previously, there was even a talent who, to uncover the potential opponent's background, didn't hesitate to have his girlfriend seduce the other party.
But there was no one like Su Tu, who came to blows with just one disagreement.
Moreover, the person hit extremely hard, with each punch making the golden light around his body ripple.
"Damn!! Weren't the native martial artists of Ancestor Star supposed to be cowards? What kind of monster is this kid anyway?"
Tuoba Yutian cursed silently in his heart.
The secret technique he displayed, known as Golden Armor, was a family secret. Once cultivated, it could invoke golden light to protect oneself, implying the intention of Vajra's reinforcement.
When battling against martial artists with fully opened apertures before, they struggled to tear through his golden light. But in front of Su Tu, this Golden Armor was on the verge of collapse.
The Vajra reinforcement was nearly shattered, the golden light dimming as if about to extinguish.
"There's no benefit for either of us in this fight. With the training camp just beginning, our battle will only exhaust our strength, giving others an advantage."
Tuoba Yutian shouted at the top of his lungs.
In his words, there was already a hint of concession.
The reason was none other, Su Tu's fists were too heavy, inflicting more than just physical pain.
"Exhausting strength?"
Listening to Tuoba Yutian's words, Su Tu found it amusing. He hadn't even used his full strength, let alone worry about exhaustion. He had merely used techniques to fight, not exerting his full power.
He also wanted to see the true caliber of these so-called prodigies.
To be fair, Tuoba Yutian's basic skills were solid, and his physical body was formidable. Although he had no chance to retaliate, Su Tu could judge that the opponent's techniques were not weak.
At the martial arts hall, except for Luo Fan, even if Tang Yangwu and others attacked with full force, they might not be able to break his golden light.
"You can't break my Golden Armor, it's just a waste of time!"
Seeing Su Tu's attack slow down, Tuoba Yutian assumed Su Tu couldn't break through his defense and was about to stop, his tone becoming more exuberant.
However, he heard the young man in front of him nonchalantly utter a word.
"Bored."
Then, Su Tu transformed his single hand into a palm, pressing down upon Tuoba Yutian. His body muscles were ferocious like a raging dragon, unleashing unimaginable terrifying power in an instant.
It was pure, unsolvable, and sheer... extreme power!!
"Triple Gravity!!!"
When Su Tu's Strengthen Body reached a high tier, he discovered that his muscles had multiple times the contraction and explosive force beyond a normal person. As long as he gathered power quickly in a flash, he could unleash strength multiple times that of his own.
So far, he could only unleash triple strength.
This move caused significant damage to the physical body, with the enormous explosive force leading to irreversible muscle damage.
Even if ordinary people discovered this technique, they would only use it as a last-resort killing technique.
But for Su Tu, who had the Eternal Life enhancement.
The consumption of this exertion method was even less than the consumption from the Prajna Seven Kills.
Crack crack crack!!!
Su Tu's palm rang out like a roaring earth dragon, causing the entire Ancient Forest to tremble.
It immediately drew the attention of everyone present.
"Does this kid not plan to break through the body locks? The power of this palm is almost at the Mingtiao level?"
"Is he abandoning the breakthrough of the body locks?"
"This strike, relying solely on Golden Armor, he can't withstand it!"
Several prodigies with fully opened apertures watched coldly, each with different thoughts, their eyes fixed on the two.
Clouds of smoke rose up.
A figure flew backward like a rocket, smashing directly into an ancient tree with a boom.
That ancient tree, standing for countless ages, still did not fall, but it now had a sorry silhouette imprinted upon it.
Tuoba Yutian's eyes were filled with disbelief.
His Golden Armor was crushed in an instant by the opponent, as if it were mere paper.
This left him momentarily unable to accept it; before coming to New Star, during sparring with his clan's members in the Mingtiao Realm, it took them a long time to break through his golden light.
But now, Su Tu shattered it like this.
The essence of Golden Armor was to protect life; as long as the golden light remained, no matter how powerful or fierce the attack was, it would at most cause him pain but wouldn't harm the core.
But now the Golden Armor had already been broken by Su Tu, which meant...
The person before him truly had the ability to kill him!!
Struggling to walk away from the tree body, Tuoba Yutian looked at the still calm Su Tu, full of dread.
If earlier he just felt Su Tu was an unconventional oddball, now he truly feared him.
Su Tu watched with interest as the 'punching bag' got back on its feet.
His eyes flashed with a hint of interest; he really came to the right place in this training camp. In the martial arts hall, when sparring with Luo Fan and others, they always controlled their strength, afraid of accidentally injuring classmates.
But here, he could uninhibitedly... improve his skill level.
In his eyes, these so-called prodigies were nothing more than tools for him to increase his skill levels!
[You experienced an exhilarating battle, Fighting Proficiency +100, Body Strengthening Proficiency +50]
[Fighting (High Tier): 360/5000]
[Strengthen Body (High Tier): 890/5000]
Watching the system prompts popping up before his eyes, a gleam appeared in Su Tu's pupils.
Unexpectedly, beating up this 'punching bag' in front of him could provide three-digit proficiency.
He realized he was right; the training camp was indeed a massive Experience Baby Paradise.
Before the formal start had even begun, it had already offered him such surprises.
Through the entire process, who knows, his skills might collectively advance another tier.
Thinking of this, Su Tu couldn't help but excitedly clench his fists, his gaze at Tuoba Yutian transformed.
From initial indifference to now having some... fervor.
Anyway, waiting for the instructor has to be done, so why not use him to brush up on my skill level, Su Tu thought.
"Holy crap!! Has he gotten addicted to hitting me?!"
Looking at Su Tu's eyes, Tuoba Yutian felt tense all over, a very bad feeling.
"Bro!!! You're my bro, I concede, if anyone dares to say the local martial artists are useless, I'll be the first to tear their mouth apart!"
"Really bro, believe me, I concede, in the future at the training camp, you're my big brother!!"
"If anyone dares to mess with you, I'll be the first not to let them go, Brother Su, you just watch my performance from now on!!"
Tuoba Yutian clasped his fists loudly, causing many people to experience a bout of tinnitus.
Those in the know understood he was backing down, while others might've thought he was making some declaration.
Su Tu was twisting his fist, looking a bit stunned, this script seems familiar, right?
But it shouldn't be, this guy looks fierce with a defiant look, how did a few punches turn him into this?
However, those martial artists who had fully unlocked their senses didn't find Tuoba Yutian's display strange at all.
Xiong Laile jogged over to Su Tu's side to explain:
"Boss, the Tuoba family is like this, they're known for being a family of little brothers."
"Their family worships strength, if you make them submit, they'll listen to you."
"But if later, he feels he's stronger than you, he'll keep fighting, if he can't win, he continues to submit."
Clearly, those few punches from Su Tu earlier directly subdued Tuoba Yutian.
Even the Golden Light was broken, how could he not submit?
"You submit?" Su Tu twisted his wrist and asked.
Tuoba Yutian was intimidatingly obedient at this point, his almost two-meter tall body hunched over, maintaining a defiant expression but speaking...
"I submit, bro, truly!"
"I'll look up to you as the leader from now on, bro!"
His voice was arrogant, yet he was saying the softest words.
"No! I feel like you haven't submitted, I actually like your defiant look earlier."
"Revert to that state."
Su Tu looked at Tuoba Yutian, speaking very seriously.
He genuinely still wanted to use this punching bag to brush up his skill level, it withstood hits well and gave a high proficiency, simply the perfect punching bag.
"No no no no!!!" Tuoba Yutian shook his head like a fan.
He looked rough but was actually very perceptive, earlier Su Tu's gaze was terrifying.
If he kept fighting Su Tu, he felt he'd be beaten miserably.
Thus, Tuoba Yutian had no desire to keep fighting Su Tu at all costs.
But our Su·Skill Level Brushing Maniac·Tu, wasn't someone to spoil the kids, could you just say no to fighting?
My skill level isn't brushed enough yet!
But as Su Tu was just thinking this.
A lazy voice rang in everyone's ears.
"You'll have plenty of opportunities to fight later, fight until you're sick of it if you want, but can you not fight here anymore."
"I'm really sleepy, I came to the Ancestor Star just wanting to take this opportunity to slack off."
The crowd looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man with dark circles under his eyes who seemed very sleepy, lying on a tree branch.
"I just slacked off and slept for a bit, and you guys already caused trouble for me."
The man complained in a slightly whiny tone.
The next moment, before everyone's eyes, the man's figure suddenly vanished.
Even Su Tu didn't clearly see the man's movements.
His shoulder felt a slight weight, and when he looked sideways, that instructor had somehow appeared beside him, half of his body leaning on Su Tu's shoulder as if asleep.
"Young man, your skills are quite good, but your temper is too big."
"According to the rules, you both are breaking... can't remember, too sleepy, anyway you and that Tuoba kid need to accept punishment."
"But what a hassle... forget it."
He said lazily, looking like an overworked office worker.
But Su Tu knew this person was very strong, he was right next to him now, but Su Tu's heart and spirit couldn't detect his presence, as soon as he looked away, it was as if the man vanished completely.
This man's spirit had gone much farther than Su Tu's.
"Hello, instructor!" Some quick-reacting students politely greeted him, and other students followed suit.
Yet the man seemed completely indifferent.
"Alright, don't waste time, you enter in batches, if you can reach the other side of the Ancient Forest, you'll officially enter the camp. If not, go back where you came from."
He spoke while yawning.
A student was just about to ask how they would be divided into batches.
But then, a fluctuation of spirit erupted from him.
Buzz buzz buzz~
Suddenly, a third of the students present vanished quietly in an instant.
Xiong Laile vowed he didn't even blink before he saw his boss disappear, along with that big fool Tuoba Yutian.
His unlucky cousin remained twitching on the ground...
....
Su Tu only felt everything around him spinning, and in the next moment, he found himself in a gloomy, dim forest.
The surroundings were eerily silent, as if even the wind had stopped here.
Looking at the environment around him, Su Tu knew he had already entered the Ancient Forest, he had once watched those bloggers exploring the Ancient Forest, the scene was exactly the same.
"To send me to the Ancient Forest in an instant, is it a teleportation technique, this training camp instructor is indeed not simple."
Su Tu thought so, but his eyes suddenly became sharp.
His instincts were alerting him... danger!!
From the originally quiet forest, a rustling sound began to emerge.
Pairs of scarlet eyes swayed slightly.
"What a unique welcome for me." Su Tu said quietly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a shadow leaped into the sky, carrying a fierce and savage aura, intending to crush Su Tu's head.
