I Have A Martial Arts Panel-Chapter 54 - Qi Realm?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Xu Ning was instantly challenged.”

Wei Changqing was sitting on the high platform in the distance as he watched Xu Ning step into the arena.

Wei Changqing had heard of Xu Ning’s name before, but this was his first time seeing Xu Ning.

“You admire this young man very much. Do you think he has the ability to maintain his cyan plate?”

Wei Changqing asked Qu Dayou.

“Certainly, he also has a high chance of obtaining a yellow plate.”

Qu Dayou’s answer surprised Wei Changqing.

He was confident..

In fact, Qu Dayou didn’t know that Xu Ning had been promoted to the qi realm. He just knew that after Xu Ning was promoted to the inner enrichment realm, his other external skills had also improved significantly.

“Then we’ll see if you’re correct.”

Wei Changqing looked at the venue with a smile.

His eyes were calm. He did not have high expectations for these young men.

Wei Changqing came from Yunying City, and his family clan was a powerful clan in Yunying City. Thus, he had seen plenty of powerful men.

After all, Kangyun County was a small county. It would be unlikely for him to find a young man that could impress him.

In the crowd, the newcomers waiting for the assessment were staring at the arena where Xu Ning and Tan Fenglu were in.

Tan Fenglu was not well-known, but Xu Ning was very famous.

They had heard that Xu Ning had worked on the Dayuan Trading Company incident, and was highly valued by Qu Dayou. He was also the first acting lieutenant among the newcomers.

Because of his reputation, Xu Ning received a ton of attention.

Quite a few of them wanted to see how strong Xu Ning was.

On the stage.

“Tan Village, Tan Fenglu!”

Tan Fenglu held a spear in his hand and greeted Xu Ning with cupped fists.

“Tao Village, Xu Ning.”

Xu Ning also greeted him with cupped fists.

In fact, when they were working at Camp Site Three, they all had the same identity.

But in everyone’s heart, they belonged to their own respective villages.

Tan Fenglu looked at Xu Ning cautiously. He was fully focused.

He had seen Xu Ning in front of the Runfeng Restaurant, getting in between Tao Qingyuan and Tan Fengying, so he knew how strong Xu Ning was.

However, even though he knew that he would be defeated, Tan Fenglu was willing to challenge him in order to help Tan Fengying gauge Xu Ning’s strength.

Although he would lose a chance to obtain a cyan plate, Tan Fengying had already promised Tan Fenglu that as long as Tan Fenglu challenged Xu Ning, he would provide an additional Swallowtail Flower to Tan Fenglu every month, and would practice with him together in the future.

Hence, Tan Fenglu would not lose anything from this.

‘Ha!’

Tan Fenglu took the lead and stabbed Xu Ning with a spear.

Xu Ning, with the knife behind his back, looked like he was in danger.

‘Too weak…’

The moment Tan Fenglu attacked, Xu Ning instantly knew how strong Tan Fenglu was.

Tan Fenglu was the intermediate realm in his spearmanship, but his internal skill was barely in the inner enrichment realm.

His strength was considered top-notch among the cyan plate holders. If he didn’t challenge Xu Ning, he could easily obtain a cyan plate.

But it was not enough to defeat Xu Ning.

Tan Fenglu’s spear struck.

Xu Ning turned sideways and easily avoided the attack.

Although he didn’t practice his external skills, Xu Ning’s agility was strong only by virtue of his physical fitness.

‘So fast!’

Tan Fenglu was startled.

Although it seemed like Xu Ning had barely avoided the attack, Tan Fenglu knew very well that Xu Ning only decided to start dodging at the very last second.

Tan Fengying, who was in the elementary realm in the Source Breath Bodybuilding Tactic, couldn’t do this at all.

Just as he was thinking about what to do next, Tan Fenglu suddenly noticed that Xu Ning appeared right in front of him.

Xu Ning’s speed was even faster than before.

‘He still has time to practice external skills?’

This was the first thought that came to Tan Fenglu’s mind.

Xu Ning’s agility was beyond what was possible in the inner enrichment realm.

Facing Xu Ning’s sudden counterattack, Tan Fenglu chose to fall back.

But his spear was too long. Although the advantage of a long-range weapon was obvious, it was extremely difficult to use when the opponent was in close range.

Tan Fenglu could only push out with his elbow, trying to stop Xu Ning’s movements temporarily.

But this was all in vain.

Xu Ning didn’t use his knife at all, he only threw out a punch.

Before Tan Fenglu’s elbow could block the punch, Xu Ning’s punch already landed.

His punch landed on Tan Fenglu’s chest, and the tremendous strength behind the punch caused Tan Fenglu to lose his center of balance. In an instant, he fell out of the arena.

After one defensive maneuver and one attack, the fight was over.

The crowd gasped.

Although everyone was mentally prepared for Xu Ning to be strong, no one thought that Xu Ning would be this strong.

According to the rumors, Xu Ning was a knife technique master.

But just now, Xu Ning did not use a knife, he had only used a punch to knock Tan Fenglu out of the arena.

“Xu Ning is this strong already…”

Tao Qingyuan couldn’t believe it. “This… Either he’s in the intermediate realm of his Source Breath Bodybuilding Tactic, or… he has already reached the qi realm!”

Tao Qingyuan was shocked.

He didn’t even consider the possibility that Xu Ning had already achieved both.

“Xu Ning…”

Tao Jin clenched her fist.

She never expected Xu Ning to reach this level of strength.

Becoming an acting lieutenant could be because of his connections with Qu Dayou, but now his strength was obvious.

Tao Jin suddenly became annoyed.

Ever since New Year’s Day, Tao Jin felt that her progress was getting slower and slower.

Forget about reaching the qi realm, she hasn’t even reached the elementary realm in the Source Breath Bodybuilding Tactic.

Thus, she became more and more irritated.

Tao Jin began to panic.

Tao Jin felt like if she wasn’t a genius, she was nothing.

“Winner, Xu Ning!”

“Xu Ning retains his cyan plate, and Tan Fenglu remains a grey plate.”

The Black Armored Guard in charge of the assessment gave out the final judgment.

Xu Ning walked off the stage in front of everyone.

Tan Fenglu also slowly got up.

He glanced at Xu Ning’s direction first, then lowered his head and glanced at his chest.

Tan Fenglu knew very well that Xu Ning went easy on him.

At the very last moment of that punch, Xu Ning restrained himself.

Additionally, Xu Ning hit the right side of his chest, deliberately avoiding the delicate areas.

Tan Fenglu felt like if Xu Ning used his full power on that punch, he would have been knocked out.

“Brother Ying…”

Tan Fenglu walked back into the crowd and said to Tan Fengying, “Be careful, he’s strong…”

After that, Tan Fenglu went to the end of the crowd.

Tan Fengying had a terrible look on his face.

He knew very well that the only person from the Tao Village that would challenge him was Xu Ning.

Because there was no one else in the Tao Village that was strong enough to challenge him.

‘Do you really want to challenge me…’

Xu Ning’s punch just now impacted Tan Fengying’s mental state, causing him to start thinking of other ways to protect his yellow plate.

As long as another Tan Village cyan plate holder challenged him, he could refuse future challenges this round, thus keeping his yellow plate.

However, there were 30 cyan plate holders and only 10 yellow plate holders. He didn’t know which round Xu Ning would challenge him, in the worst case, he could be challenged three times.

In other words, if he wanted to keep his yellow plate, he would have to defeat three cyan plates.

But this would mean backing down.

Not only would he lose respect amongst the Tan Village, but Qu Dayou would also be disappointed in him. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

He would also lose his reputation in Camp Site Three.

Tan Fengying was in a dilemma.

‘Xu Ning!’

Before all this, Qu Dayou had moved his chair and sat beside Wei Changqing.

But Xu Ning’s punch caused Qu Dayou to stand up.

He was a warrior of the mortal realm seventh stage, so as soon as Xu Ning made an attack, he knew that Xu Ning was beyond the inner enrichment realm.

Even an intermediate realm Source Breath Bodybuilding Tactic warrior would not have this kind of explosive power.

“He’s in the qi realm…”

Wei Changqing, who looked indifferent before this, turned his head slightly and sat up straight.
