The Snake Fist!
Qin Fen’s eyes bulged, light surging, as the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art coursed and roared through the muscles and bones of his entire body. With a flip of his arms, he smashed a Double Piercing Palm toward Phoenix’s perky chest.
The muscles of Qin Fen’s arms pulsed violently when they were infused with true energy, while the muscles of his palms turned into metal blocks, letting out screams and setting off a clash of air currents between him and Phoenix. Their uniforms flapped without end from the wind.
Phoenix’s expression of aloofness suddenly changed. A dark aura flashed through her fair cheeks. The one to take a beating actually dares to fight back? And he was striking directly at her two mounds, his actions vile to the extreme. Qin Fen’s strike moved in a straight line, so her attack to his nape would hit at the same time. It would be impossible not to have her two mounds be touched by his slimy hands.
The two experts looked from the side, their eyebrows both shooting up. This kid’s balls were far too big. He even used the Double Piercing Palm against a woman?
The Shaolin Arhat Fist was originally a set of firm and fierce fist techniques, but to anyone looking, the Double Piercing Palm contained a vile and vulgar taste in the way it was used against this woman.
Phoenix’s complexion turned dark, a layer of ice-cold fury appeared as wrinkles on her forehead. Her thought to give Qin Fen a beating had instantly changed to a decision to break his arms as a good lesson to him.
Qin Fen hadn’t prepared to defend and had instead used the Double Piercing Palm to attack. This sort of move was done with vile intentions, so the person behind the move was probably no good as well!
There wasn’t much time to think in the time it takes a spark to fly off a flint. Phoenix pivoted with her ankle, bringing her waist to twist. Her body swayed back and as if she had turned into a water snake. She dodged to Qin Fen’s left side with the move, the Wind Snake Rounds the Tree, breaking free from his attack range. She then made a slight adjustment with the trajectory of her chopping right hand, and down her hand went again.
Qin Fen pulled his neck toward his body and lowered his waist, and suddenly his pressing double palms separated, His right arm assumed the form of supporting a tower, while his left palm slapped towards Phoenix’s lower body.
The Double Piercing Palm had turned into the Deep Exploration of the Lower Body. The transformation had flowed to the extreme, yet it was also vile to the extreme!
“He has balls!”
The same thought flashed in both the drill instructors’ minds. Qin Fen was using three-star strength to stand off against Phoenix, who attacked with four-star strength, and was even able to persevere with a counterattack. His mental fortitude and fighting spirit could be said to be truly laudable, but his fighting style was truly too….
Such a fighting style was not only unexpected by the two drill instructors, even Qin Fen didn’t expect to fight this way himself. His body reacted completely by instinct when attacked. This was merely due to the fact that his martial senses had grown far too quickly these days. His martial senses had grown even faster than his willpower.
When one’s martial senses overly exceeded one’s skill in martial arts, the martial artist would find themselves a bit complacent in terms of willpower. The martial artist could only strike out with the fighting style by reaction of their martial senses in times of combat, and often the fighting style was one that they themselves never expect.
Qin Fen had been deeply influenced by the Vile King Zeng Yicheng’s fighting style in recent days. During critical moments, his martial senses would naturally react and choose the best response towards the current situation, and the best response was the most vile of fighting styles.
Phoenix’s calf turned supple, and her entire body changed like a snake, suddenly springing directly back a dozen meters in retreat. She used none other than the Soaring Snake Walks the Fog of the Snake Fist. This technique was faster and more difficult than the Arhat Cloud Walk.
The pressure immediately weakened with this retreat.
With the weakening of pressure, Qin Fen pressed down in this state where his martial senses controlled his body. He bent his legs to launch himself in a manner that was unlike Phoenix’s subtle display of energy but like powerful rocket thrusters. The floor beneath his feet shattered from the powerful impact, turning him into the most fierce of artillery shells. His aura of vileness was instantly raised to the most firm and fierce aspect of three-star strength.
Phoenix’s pupils suddenly contracted from the instantaneous change of auras. She immediately felt that what was charging toward her was no artillery shell but an unprecedented ocean wave.
With a shake of his shoulders, Qin Fen’s thrusting metal palms were akin to charging thunder. The air crashed endlessly with the sound of the great ocean tide from the gale of his palms. It was the Raging Berserker Tide!
The aura of power accumulated to the very peak and exploded. The Raging Berserker Tide combined with the strongest aura of power to unleash the firmest and fiercest force that Qin Fen could produce.
Phoenix’s contracting pupils suddenly spewed with rays of light. Her battle intent as a martial artist was completely stirred. It was inconceivable for a three-star martial artist to reach this level with his fist intent. The four-star strength of her body was heightened once more as she directly entered the meteor level. Between the palm and fist, a series of moves of raising, pressing, and hooking were unleashed one after another. Every exchange of strikes caused the air to scream with the hiss of a snake’s tongue as well as the sound of ocean waves from the gale of palms.
The two drill instructors felt as if an ocean snake was wrestling within the ocean tide.
A second passed, and Phoenix was even more secretly shocked. Such a berserk attack should have ended as quickly as it came due to the extreme consumption of true energy and physical strength. However, this young man showed no signs of waning. Instead, his aura of power was gradually accumulating, manifesting as fiercer strength.
So your endurance is good? Then I’ll drag you down until you run out of endurance, then I’ll slowly sort you out! I’ll let you know the price for acting so vile against this boss lady!
She secretly set this plan in mind, and Phoenix made shaking steps, pivoting on the toes of her feet. Each one of her steps were soft to the extreme as her feet followed every one of Qin Fen’s steps. The slates beneath her feet would explode to pieces that flew in the air. There were two complete domains, and the two drill instructor shouted as they watched, getting a huge kick out of it. They predicted to themselves just how long Qin Fen could fight this firmly and fiercely for.
Fighting solo against powerful people in groups last night in the War God Arena caused a change in Qin Fen unbeknown to him. He had ascended a bit, for he felt an indescribable ease throughout the bones of his entire body as he struck with the Raging Berserker Tide. He didn’t feel weary at all.
Ten seconds, twenty seconds, thirty seconds… one minute….
Phoenix’s initial shock now turned to curiosity. Not only was this recruit superb in his fist intent, his endurance and explosive power was the highest apex of quality among talented recruits. No wonder Old Hao and Boor were here training him.
No, that’s wrong! Within this berserk fist intent was a wisp of slaughter. What was this? This was of the Butcher! Phoenix’s curiousity increased further. Where did this kid come from? He was actually able to get those three scum together to train him. From the this person’s air, Phoenix could tell that those three scum were quite serious in training him.
Not even a general or admiral of a command area would be able to get these three scum to train the same person. Those three people were used to doing things their own way. Their ranks might be low, but their strength couldn’t be ignored. Those with skill could act hard-headed anywhere.
“Huh? What’s going on?”
The door to the room was pushed open. Old Second of All Ages, Butcher, Trash, and Gale Riley, stared stupefied with arms around each others shoulders. They looked at the scene of intense fighting with utter confusion at its sudden apperance.
Old Second of All Ages, Trash, Gale Riley? The King of Aerial Combat, the King of the Jungle, and the King of Guns? Phoenix’s curiously reached its strongest its ever been these days. It looked like there weren’t three people training the young man but six people!
How in the world did this kid do it? No wonder he dared to use such vile and underhanded moves when fighting against this boss lady! Phoenix sank into thought, and it showed on her face. Even if you’re the kid of the president of the Federation and you have these six scum as your masters, daring to be this vile toward this boss lady will leave you with broken arms and legs the same!
Thinking that Qin Fen likely felt confident from having backing, the fury in Phoenix;s heart rose once more. Her half horse stance suddenly turned into a qilin step. Her meteor level strength combined with the might of this high level footwork, allowing her to burst past the entirety of the Raging Berserker Tide in an instant. Then her arms unfolded toward Qin Fen’s arms like unwinding threads.
Dark Snake Coils Stone. This was a special technique of constricting taken from the snake species when they attacked larger animals. A mature snake could easily constrict a calf that was much larger than it to death. This was the constricting strength of a snake, and it was one of the main killing techniques of the snake fist. The hand would coil around, stopping the opponent’s palm and hooking the opponent’s forearm. With a break, often times the opponent’s arm would be twisted to snap, showing the sinisterness of a snake.
The disparity between the three-star level and the meteor level was not tiny at all. Qin Fen’s martial senses could clearly perceive the changes in Phoenix’s battle intent in the first instant, but his body was half a beat too slow, allowing Phoenix to escape the onslaught of his gales of fists in a flash. He was now at an absolute disadvantage.
“This is Qin Zhan’s little brother!”
The moment Squad Leader Hao shouted, Phoenix had just exerted force with her hands upon Qin Fen’s arms. Her hands uddenly lost their sinisterness and constricting strength, her fierce battle aura instantly vanished.
Qin Fen could feel that his opponent had no battle intent whatsoever. He carefully removed the arm that was just about to unleash a counterattack and took two slow steps back.
Phoenix stood in place, stunned for a few seconds. She studied Qin Fen up and down before sweeping her gaze to Squad Leader Hao who had just spoken. Her voice trembled slightly as she asked, “What did you say?”
“I said….” Squad Leader Hao’s smile appeared as the naughtiest smile Qin Fen had ever known. “I said that this bro is Qin Zhan’s little brother Qin Fen. In the traditional sense, he can call you sister-in-law….”
