Chapter 19: Will You Still Fight?
Ning Fengzhi still wore that unfathomable smile. With a flick of his finger, he urged, "Do you all want to see the true strength of our current Senior Brother from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect?"
"Yes!" everyone responded in unison. These weren't Ning Fengzhi's pre-arranged accomplices; rather, there were no such things as celebrities on the Douluo Continent; only powerful individuals who were infinitely admired.
Li Tianyi's youth and strength naturally attracted all the attention and curiosity. Several well-developed girls in the crowd were already flirting with him.
Li Tianyi was anxious to leave the stage, but Ning Fengzhi approached, grabbed him, and whispered something in his ear, as if promising him some terms.
Li Tianyi's eyes lit up, and he returned to the center of the arena.
"Which deacon is willing to step up and fight our Senior Brother?" Ning Fengzhi demanded.
"I'll do it!" A towering figure suddenly took the stage.
Watching the burly man in a singlet leap onto the ring, his muscles brimming with explosive energy, Li Tianyi's expression remained stern, but a flicker of excitement crossed his eyes.
How does one strengthen a Saiyan's bloodline? Constantly battling powerful opponents, of course!
The man before him, a master of physical training, instantly piqued his interest.
"Just call me Uncle Li," the man said cheerfully.
Li Tianyi's fighting spirit surged, and he charged forward.
"Good boy!" The man stomped his foot on the ground, and the image of a giant elephant flashed behind him. Five spirit rings rose in unison, yellow and purple.
"First Spirit Skill: Savage Elephant Galloping!"
"Boom!" The ground erupted in a dark brown, pulsating wave of light, sweeping towards the advancing Li Tianyi.
Li Tianyi's sprinting figure wavered slightly.
The man seized the opportunity and met his attack.
"Third Spirit Skill: Savage Elephant Stepping into the Sky!"
Li Tianyi blocked with his free hands, taking the man's kick head-on and being knocked back over ten steps.
Ning Fengzhi's eyes flashed with shock, then a deep joy and a hint of determination.
Jian Douluo frowned, as if dissatisfied with Li Tianyi's fighting style.
"Good boy, come again!" The big man flipped over and charged again.
"Hah!" Li Tianyi roared, once again entering his Saiyan mimic mode, enveloped in golden flames.
Their fists clashed, the floor tiles exploded, and in the end, both retreated three steps, the fight evenly matched.
The big man looked at Li Tianyi in surprise and said, "My Savage Elephant spirit is a ton of strength. Even if a level 60 Soul Emperor could defeat me, they wouldn't necessarily be able to match me in strength, you brat?"
Li Tianyi, his face filled with rage, spoke without further ado, and swung his fist again.
It wasn't that he didn't want to respond politely, but his usual composure turned into a frenzy once he entered his transformation mode, and the slightest taunt would cause him to explode.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Watching the flashing lights on the stage, the large and small engaged in relentless, powerful blows.
The sect disciples below had grown numb to Li Tianyi's inhuman performance.
"This, this is a monster! He can defy Soul King Uncle Li without even using his martial spirit or soul skills?"
"Is he still human? He's not a soul beast transformed!"
Upon hearing this, many turned their heads and nodded in agreement.
"Even if he's a soul beast, so what? I'm going to give birth to my eldest brother!" a girl shouted shamelessly.
"Huh, huh!"
After the fierce battle, Li Tianyi and the large man stood on opposite sides, staring at each other, breathing heavily.
The large man raised his head and said solemnly, "Little pervert, I admit you're powerful, but to be honest, I still have my fifth soul skill!"
"Oh?" Li Tianyi, enveloped in golden flames, curled his lips.
"What? Are you underestimating your Uncle Li's fifth soul skill?"
Li Tianyi's face, brimming with rage, flashed with contempt. With a rip, he tore his clothes.
Someone in the audience wondered, "We're in the middle of a fight, why's Senior Brother taking off his clothes?"
The clothes fell to the ground with a thud, creating a large dent in the tiled floor.
"Holy crap!"
"That thing must weigh over a thousand pounds!"
The girls were no longer focused on Li Tianyi's abnormal strength. They shielded their eyes with one hand, but through their fingers, they greedily admired the diamond-like muscular features that Li Tianyi had revealed after stripping.
"Wow, Senior Brother, this body is so sexy!" a girl, dressed in a glamorous outfit, exclaimed excitedly.
"Shh! Keep your voice down!" A girl nearby patted her, still watching intently.
If Li Tianyi had been near them, overhearing this exchange, he would have undoubtedly been tempted to grumble, "Oh, damn, such strength! "
The Soul King's mouth twitched as he stared at the clothes Li Tianyi had flung to the ground.
"Still fighting?" Li Tianyi has recovered his form. Although the opponent still has the fifth soul skill that he has not used, he is now 100% sure that he can defeat the opponent.
Uncle Li remained silent, his eyes somewhat vacant.
"Pa, pa, pa!" Ning Fengzhi clapped his hands and stood up. "Heroes truly emerge young. Let's call it a day!"
Uncle Li breathed a sigh of relief. Losing didn't really matter to him, but he was afraid of bringing shame to the elders of the sect.
Li Tianyi's face remained impassive, silently picking up his clothes from the ground. After this battle, he had a rough assessment of his own strength.
At twelve years old, without revealing any trump cards, he should be on par with a five-ring genius-level Soul King. As for a competitor like Uncle Li, whose Soul Rings were not even properly matched, if he really wanted to go all out, he could probably beat ten of them.
"Big Brother, you're mighty!" someone shouted in a servile voice, and similar voices echoed one after another, instantly bringing the entire martial arts arena to a boil.
Looking at the enthusiastic disciples below, Li Tianyi felt a surge of joy. This was preliminary proof that the strength he had gained through sacrifice was worth it, and it also proved that the path he had chosen was the right one.
Douluo Continent is a world where strength is respected. If you want to realize your plans and expectations, you must quickly improve your strength!
Not long after, the news that the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect had a mysterious senior brother spread quickly.
But the senior brother's surname, name, and characteristics seemed to be deliberately concealed. People outside could only hear that this senior brother had a magical skill that made him famous, radio gymnastics!
It was late at night, and Li Tianyi had just dealt with a day of fanatical fans and various little fans who came up to him and wanted to throw themselves at him. He felt very tired both physically and mentally.
He took a comfortable shower and was now wiping his wet hair with a bath towel wrapped around him.
