Chapter 408: Chapter 174: The Might of the Great Grandmaster! The Universally Acknowledged Martial Ancestor Zhang Beixing!

Reach for the sky in a single bound? Defeat a Grandmaster far above my level?

Upon hearing Zhang Beixing’s words, Chen Rourou was utterly baffled.

Master, have you lost your mind in seclusion? Do you even hear what you’re saying? That’s a Pseudo Grandmaster! An existence that has cultivated Hidden Force! The gap between him and ordinary Martial Artists is as vast as the heavens and earth; it’s no exaggeration! With Hidden Force, one merits the ’Grandmaster’ suffix; without it, they are merely martial artists or martial arts practitioners. It’s not the same thing at all. Now you’re telling me to go and fight, and even to win? It’s like teaching me the basics of LOL and then making me go one-on-one with Faker, insisting I have to kill him solo! This is utterly absurd!

Chen Rourou looked at Zhang Beixing, her mouth twitching slightly.

With a master like you, I, Chen Rourou, am truly at my wit’s end!

The light faded from Chen Rourou’s eyes.

She had even begun to imagine herself being pummeled by that little Japanese devil the moment she stepped onto the stage!

Clearly, others understood this as well. They knew that making Chen Rourou, a martial arts master, challenge a Pseudo Grandmaster was too much for her.

Liu Yi spoke up, ”Beixing, about this matter, should we reconsider? You’re putting Rourou in quite a difficult position.”

Elder Chen chimed in, ”Indeed, Beixing. Although Rourou has made rapid progress these past few months and has a solid foundation in martial arts, she’s ultimately still just a regular practitioner. She’s far from touching the threshold of a Pseudo Grandmaster or mastering Hidden Force. Challenging a Pseudo Grandmaster is... just too tough for her!”

Chen Hegao also said, ”Elder Chen is right. My words might sound harsh, but, Grandmaster Zhang, you’re really putting your disciple in an impossible situation. There’s no need to fight someone who is fundamentally unbeatable. Why must you do this?”

Liu Pan added, ”If it really comes to it, let’s change plans. I’ll go up and fight that little Japanese devil. Don’t mind my age; I’m a military instructor, and my years of training haven’t been for nothing. I’m more than capable of dealing with him. But if you send Rourou up, there’s simply no way she can fight!”

They all stood up, trying to dissuade Zhang Beixing, their words filled with skepticism about his decision and a clear lack of faith in Chen Rourou.

Because Chen Rourou was simply too inexperienced! Even if she could exchange a few moves with that little Japanese devil based on her solid martial arts foundation, the difference in strength was plain to see. Defeat was inevitable!

On the stage, the Ryuuka devil also heard the conversation and sneered, speaking in heavily accented Great Xia language, ”Grandmaster Zhang, I admit you’re strong to have become a Grandmaster at such a young age. But having a woman who isn’t even a Pseudo Grandmaster fight me? You’re underestimating us Neon Martial Artists. Or is it that, as a Grandmaster, this is the only woman you have to show?”

Zhang Beixing paid his words no mind.

Indeed, he only had one female disciple presentable enough. As for Lin Pengfei, he was just at the Entry Level—definitely not a practical choice. But even with just one female disciple, under his tutelage, she was more than capable of handling that little Japanese devil!

Looking at the people trying to persuade him, he pressed his hand downward. ”Everyone, there’s no need for further discussion on this matter. As her master, don’t you think I understand?”

Then he turned to Chen Rourou. ”Rourou, later, listen to my instructions. Do whatever I tell you to do. For now, relax your mind. No matter what happens next, do not react in any way.”

”Ah? Oh-oh...” Chen Rourou responded, still bewildered.

Then she saw Zhang Beixing extend his hand and rest it on her shoulder. An indescribable sensation emanated from Zhang Beixing’s hand. Following that, she felt as if something was forcefully entering her body through her shoulder.

The sensation was abrupt and strange. It made her feel full, yet uncomfortable—itchy, and oddly pleasant. She instinctively wanted to move to relieve the discomfort. Just as she was about to do so, she remembered what Zhang Beixing had just said: ’Relax your mind, and no matter what happens, don’t react.’

Out of reverence for Zhang Beixing, and also fearing she might mess things up, Chen Rourou clenched her jaw and silently endured the discomfort spreading through her body.

In contrast, Zhang Beixing, after placing his hand on Chen Rourou’s shoulder, closed his eyes, his expression serious and solemn.

His Dan Force, which concealed a heaven-defying ability, was Vital Energy guidance! As the name suggests, it could transfer his own Vital Energy into another’s body, guiding out the ’Qi’ within them, thereby forming Internal Energy!

It must be known that since Vital Energy was developed by generations of Martial Artists, it has been used for injuring and killing enemies. It serves to enhance the body’s striking power, allowing the body to unleash a force distinct from mere muscular strength. Thus, the combination of Jin and Qi is called Vital Energy, referring to two different types of force. Once this force penetrates the human body, it can strike from the outside to the inside, rupturing internal organs—such is the power of Vital Energy.

Whether it’s Hidden Force or a Grandmaster’s Transforming Force, they are all means to enhance martial prowess. But when it comes to Dan Force, it can be used to condense the Dan Force to a single point for an attack, or to control one’s own Qi and Blood, thereby increasing longevity.
