Chapter 140:

Legend had it that the last monarch of the Shang Dynasty, Emperor Xin, who was also known as King Zhou of Shang, was said to be an invincible warrior.

He was said to have the ability to control fierce animals with his bare hands, possessing unparalleled martial skills and incredible strength. This wasnt from myth or legend but was explicitly recorded in historical accounts by Sima Qian.

Backwards trailing nine oxen, caressing the beams to ease the pillars served to illustrate King Zhou of Shangs fearsome strength.

However, since no one had witnessed such feats, who knew if Sima Qian might have been exaggerating?

He also claimed that the Yellow Emperor was born divine and could speak as soon as he was born, behaving like an adult from childhood.

Whether Emperor Xin could actually drag nine oxen was something these Tang soldiers wouldnt know. But today, they witnessed it firsthand, Su Li really could drag nine oxen in reverse!

These werent ordinary plow oxen but bullocks used for pulling carts. The strength of an ordinary plowing ox was around 800 to 900 catties, whereas these bullocks were much larger and had at least a strength of over 1,000 catties.

Nine of these bullocks working together would have a combined strength of at least 10,000 catties!

Yet Su Li managed to pull them back repeatedly with just one hand!

This kind of terrifying strength was unheard of.

In the memory of these officers, leaving aside mythical tales, the most powerful warrior in the history of the Central Plains was likely Xiang Yu.

But Xiang Yus abilities werent this formidable. Being able to carry a tripod might have been an exaggeration that persisted for thousands of years. After all, no matter how large a tripod was, it could only be so heavy

At least, it couldnt compare to the strength demonstrated by dragging nine oxen. Not to mention characters from reality, even legendary gods and Buddhas, could they possess the strength of Su Li?

What about Siddhartha throwing an elephant? That was just tossing a wild elephant weighing two or three thousand pounds.

But after witnessing Su Lis strength, even elephants might be as docile as kittens in his hands. One hand with a strength of ten thousand catties

Especially after realizing this, the officers felt a chill down their spines. They looked at Su Li in shock once again.

Could the commander standing before them really be human?The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

Su Li had already anticipated the officers reactions. After reaching 200 points, his physical qualities had undergone a transformation similar to a rebirth.

Su Li placed the halberd on the weapon rack and gestured for someone to take it.

Among the officers, a strong man stepped forward.

He exerted force to lift it, but struggled and turned red, barely lifting the halberd a couple of inches. Another person tried to shoulder it. Despite their effort, they could only raise the halberd about a hands width.

Together, they managed to lift it off the rack, but soon ran out of strength. This scene left the other officers stunned.

Someone murmured, Is it fake? Such a heavy weapon who could use it in battle?

Su Li didnt respond but simply smiled.

With a single hand, he effortlessly grabbed the halberd. Then, Su Li gave it a slight wave.

In his mind, the Overlord Halberd Technique he had learned naturally came to mind. However, with people around, he couldnt perform it.

He casually swung it a few times and noticed a small mound not far behind the tent. Suddenly, Su Li swung his arm with all his might, throwing the halberd towards the mound.

A loud thud!

The halberd plunged directly into the stone mound. Surprisingly, there was no reaction from within the mound, but the debris and gravel on the outside were scattered by the blast.

With that strike, it seemed like the stone mound had been hit by a powerful explosive. Especially the officers, they had never seen such a scene before.

Looking at Su Li, their gazes were somewhat bewildered.

Could this be some kind of mystical power

Then they realized that following such a powerful individual into battle could mean easy gains. After all, most mercenaries cared about the rewards they could reap from the war.

The lower the risk and the greater the rewards, that was what made a successful battle. Everything else was secondary.

Meanwhile, Su Dingfang in the distance watched the scene unfold, shocked and speechless.

This guy, without us even realizing it, has become so powerful
