Chapter 116: Training I

Then they left to a room to go watch the match between Alex's team and the puppets.

- Battle room -

The instant a puppet got to Alex's side, it sent out a fist at Alex. Alex who was sure of his body's toughness felt it shouldn't be too hard to meet the fist of an initial-phase condensation stage, body-cultivation battle puppet.

Boom!

A loud boom sound rang out with a wave of energy erupting from the point their fists collided.

Alex was knocked into the distance for many feet through the air while the puppet which remained where it stood dashed towards Alex who was being shoved through the air at high speed by a backwards kinetic force.

With a great movement speed, it got to Alex who was still being shoved through the air. It jumped into the air towards Alex and grabbed him by the feet.

With a roar, it swung Alex heavily to the ground.

Bang!

Alex smashed into the ground hard and the air in his lungs was knocked out of him. A gigantic web-like crack could be seen on the ground where his body heavily crashed into.

Not giving Alex a breather, the puppet once it landed rushed towards where Alex's body was and with a leg lifted up, high above it head, it swung it down hard towards Alex who just recovered from the impacts.

Seeing the leg come at him with a tyrannical force, Alex quickly rolled away from there and pushed himself to his feet.

Bang!

The leg struck the cracked earth with immense weight and the earth shattered apart in a ripple-like fashion.

Alex quickly re-organized himself where he stood.

But in his eyes was marvel. He couldn't believe the puppet was powerful and tough to this extent.

Alex recalled when he struck it fist. If he didn't have a tough body, his hand would have exploded into a mist of blood.

He quickly switched to using energy-attacks.

The puppet dashed towards him and Alex punched out.

"Wind Fist" He said and punched out.

Then a large mass of a cyan-colored windforce energy erupted from his fist which instantly condensed and shaped into a fist that spanned many feet in size.

The second it formed, it shot towards the puppet which sent it fist out towards it.

Boom!

A wave of tyrannical energy was released when the puppet's fist struck the glowing, cyan energy-fist and this caused the ground beneath the point of impact to shatter apart.

The energy-fist cracked and shattered in the next instant when the puppet's fist struck it. While the puppet was launched into the distance by the powerful destructive force the fist of energy came with.

When it would stand back to it feet, one of it arm was gone. It had exploded into bits from the impact with Alex's energy-fist.

Since it had lost an arm, another puppet came forward from the first row.

It now made two puppets that Alex was going to fight.

Alex wasn't fazed. He just prepared himself.

With a roar, they dashed towards him. Alex too also dashed towards them.

They sent out their fist at him which Alex evaded by doing a flip above them. And while in the air, he twisted his body that his head was now facing them.

"Burying Wind Palm" he said aiming his palm at them while upside down in the air.

A large mass of windforce energy gushed out from his palm rapidly. Then it immediately condensed and shaped into a massive, crystalline cyan palm that struck the puppets at high speed, pressing them very hard into the ground.

Bang!

The instant they were pressed into the ground with great force, the earth shattered in a ripple-like fashion for dozens of feet.

Alex who had already landed from his flip looked towards the puppets and saw that they had shattered into pieces.

He nodded his head and awaited the other puppets to come battle him.

When Alex destroyed the two puppets, five puppets came forward.

Alex looked at them and identified that these were energy-cultivation battle-puppet.

Why he felt so was because he could see voidstones affixed in their chest. And voidstones which have arrays stored in them were used to generate energies. So he felt these imitated energy-cultivators.

'The hell'

Alex said inwardly when he saw three to four voidstones plugged into the sockets in the chest of these puppets.

This meant that they could discharge attacks of three to four energies. And he was facing five of these.

Alex quickly got ready.

He channeled speedforce energy to his eyes and his perception of the speed of objects increased greatly.

With mechanical voices, the puppets uttered the names of their attacks.

"Ice Dragon attack"

"Moon-incising Sword strike"

"Profound Earth Shattering Fist"

"Great Mountain Strike"

"Mighty Sundering Spear"

......

Immediately they said their attack names, they discharged the corresponding energies from orifices in their palms.

These energies instantly condensed and shaped into a snow-white dragon, silver sword, yellow-colored fist, dark brown mountain peak and azure spear which shot towards Alex at great speed the instant they formed.

Since Alex had moved speed-perception energy to his eyes, he was able to see the energy-attacks move towards him in slow motion.

In his vision, It took the attacks few minutes to cover a distance of one inch as they blazed towards him from the air.

They appeared slow in his sight and so he was able to quickly prepare himself against them.

He moved large amounts of different energies from his energyhouse to his energy channels and stored them in there as compressed lumps of energies.

He had never done this before. He just thought it up on a whim since many attacks were shooting towards him.

He was surprised he could do this. But he felt everyone else should be able to do it.

But he was wrong about that. Only he would be able to do this as he had special energy meridians that would accommodate the flow of any quantity of energy through them.

Although this would cause them to stretch to a great degree, they wouldn't snap, break or ruin.

So by compressing the energies into lumps, he would be able to shoot energy-attacks very rapidly to destroy the fearsome energy-attacks cutting through the air towards him

Then moving a lump of windforce energy from the ones he had compacted and stored in his meridian to his clenched fists, he said and punched out.

"Wind Fist"

The lump upon reaching his hand turned into a large mass of cyan-colored windforce energy that instantly gushed out from his fist the second he punched out.

Then this huge mass of energy rapidly condensed and shaped into a solid cyan fist that shot towards one of the puppet's attacks at a high speed.
