Chapter 45: Chapter 44: Requesting Battle and Beating Up Liu Ming

Translator: 549690339

The buzz-cut youth was named Liu Ming.

Originally a criminal police officer in Jincheng District of Quanjiang City, he became interested in this new world after awakening as a Qi sensor half a month ago, and thus applied to join the Wu’an Bureau voluntarily.

Among the new recruits at Wu’an Bureau, he was the most powerful and had the best talent.

In the power ranking assessment, he was designated as an Eight-rank peak Qi sensor, just one step away from the Seventh-rank.

Since joining the Wu’an Bureau, he had never encountered an evenly matched opponent.

They were either like Li Chenghu, who completely overwhelmed him with their power.

Or like Xu Rou, a crazy woman who fought as if she didn’t care for her life.

Thinking about this,

Liu Ming turned to look at Xu Rou.

Seeing her glowing eyes fixated on Chen Sheng, she looked like a harmless little fangirl.

He felt a chill run down his spine.

But he quickly refocused on Chen Sheng, quietly awaiting his response.

To be able to defeat a Tenth level Qi sensor in one blow.

Chen Sheng’s strength had successfully sparked his combative spirit.

He wanted to personally test Chen Sheng’s physical strength and see how much more powerful the martial arts that Chen Sheng had learned were compared to the techniques they had learned.

“I don’t see why not…”

Facing Liu Ming’s eager gaze, Chen Sheng pondered for a brief moment before giving his answer.

Liu Ming immediately stepped out of the row and came before Chen Sheng.

This move once again attracted the attention of the surrounding students.

The students who were carrying Wang Dazhuang, seeing this, hurriedly dumped him and returned to the sidelines to watch the confrontation.

When Chen Sheng had just defeated Wang Dazhuang, everything happened too fast, they didn’t have a chance to gauge Chen Sheng’s power level.

Now that Liu Ming was making a move, they were naturally quite interested. “My name is Liu Ming, I’ve learned military combat, boxing, and grappling.”

“Please do not hold back, Instructor.”

With these words, the look of battle readiness in Liu Ming’s eyes was on the brink of overflowing.

That being said,

he slowly pulled back his right foot and placed his arms in front of his chest in a position that somewhat resembled boxing. A sharp momentum rose from Liu Ming’s body.

“Alright.”

Seeing the other party’s serious demeanor,

Chen Sheng put on a serious face and assumed the Three-Body Technique stance.

Neither of them initiated the attack first.

However, for some reason,

the onlookers felt the atmosphere grow increasingly tense; they were so cautious that they were even cautious with their breathing.

Finally, after two or three seconds.

Liu Ming couldn’t hold back any longer.

With a bang, his figure shot out, instantly closing in on Chen Sheng.

So fast!

Chen Sheng’s gaze hardened, and he became fully alert.

At the same time, he suddenly heard a breaking air sound from his left.

Liu Ming’s fist was turning into a shadow, aiming at Chen Sheng’s cheek.

The fist arrived before the man.

Just as Liu Ming was about to land his fist on his face,

Chen Sheng calmly lifted his left hand to block Liu Ming’s attack.

Thud!

A dull impact sounded.

Chen Sheng frowned, feeling a sharp pain in his arm, barely able to maintain his guard.

Faster than him, stronger than him.

Chen Sheng quickly estimated Liu Ming’s power, which was around 2.8 to 2.9, even higher than Shi Jian’s.

But he wasn’t flustered by this.

He had killed Fifth-order Covert Strength Martial Artists before.

He was even less afraid of a mere Eighth Stage Qi Sensor.

In the past few days, after several sparring sessions with Shi Jian,

Chen Sheng had realized that even though his strength attribute wasn’t as high as Shi Jian’s at the time, he was no less resilient or enduring than Shi Jian.

Moreover, in terms of agility attribute-related nerve reflexes, body coordination, and senses, he was even better than Shi Jian.

In other words,

when facing Qi sensors whose power difference wasn’t too great, Chen Sheng’s other two attributes were his advantages.

With this thought in mind,

Chen Sheng, who had just blocked Liu Ming’s first attack, quickly thrust his right arm toward Liu Ming’s elbow joint.

Feeling the imminent danger,

Liu Ming immediately tried to withdraw his arm, while his left hand clenched into a fist, aiming a lightning-fast punch toward the exposed area of Chen Sheng’s abdomen.

But at that moment,

Slap!

Chen Sheng’s left hand moved up effortlessly, instantly catching Liu Ming’s withdrawing arm.

Not good!

Liu Ming cursed inwardly.

Before he could react, he saw a slight smirk on Chen Sheng’s face.

Following that,

Chen Sheng gave a hard tug!

Liu Ming’s body instantly leaned to the left.

And Chen Sheng’s fist that was originally aimed at his elbow joint also changed direction accordingly.

The Splitting Fist spawns the Drilling Punch.

The target is… the lower jaw!

In a precarious situation,

Liu Ming can only abandon the attack, deviate his body at the same time, avoiding the fatal point.

At the critical moment, Chen Sheng also pulls back some strength, not to seriously injure Liu Ming.

Bang!

Thud Thud Thud.

Liu Ming retreats three steps in a row.

At this moment, his cheek is swelling at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It is as if he had half a pig’s head.

“Instructor, I’m struggling a bit.”

“You can use a bit more force too, it’ll be alright.”

But Liu Ming forces a grimacing smile, resolutely not admitting defeat verbally.

He has a reason for saying so.

Although he took a punch to the face from Chen Sheng, he could clearly feel that the other’s strength was not as great as his own.

Under this premise, as long as he exchanged punches with the other, he could win!

With this thought,

Liu Ming was suddenly full of confidence.

Upon hearing this,

Chen Sheng laughed.

Subsequently, he withdrew his pose.

Could it be that the other party also found out that his physical strength was not as great as his own and was now planning on conceding? Just as Liu Ming frowned and was about to speak,

“Since it’s like this, I guess I should also be serious.” With that, Chen Sheng took off his coat.

Revealing the weighted vest he wore underneath.

Holy Shit?!

Not just Liu Ming, nearly everyone present widened their eyes in shock when they saw this scene.

Instructor Chen, until now, had actually been always wearing weighted gear??

Bang!

The weighted vest heavily hit the ground, causing a dull thud.

The eyelids of everyone present jumped at the sound.

Following that, were the weighted bracelets and the weighted straps.

Another two dull thuds.

Chen Sheng jumped slightly in place, feeling his body become significantly lighter.

Having weighted gear on slowed down his movements and bodily reactions somewhat.

Now,

he could fully unleash his strength.

“Let’s go again.”

Liu Ming unconsciously swallowes.

“Oh…okay.” The next second, Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, a shadow enveloped him from above.

The strong wind hit him in the face.

Chen Sheng had already pressed forward, his arms swung down with force, aiming straight at Liu Ming’s neck!

“The Xingyi Five Elements Fist, contains the five elements’ variations.” Chen Sheng’s attacks came like a violent storm, forcing Liu Ming to keep defending.

“Between each move, they generate each other and overcome each other. If used correctly, they can catch the enemy off guard.” Bang!

Chen Sheng continued fighting during his explanation.

A Splitting Fist hit Liu Ming’s shoulder, causing him to lose balance. He could only retreat quickly to distance himself.

“In martial arts, there are three levels of understanding: Light Energy, Hidden

Energy, and Transforming Power. Now, let me demonstrate Light Energy.”

Chen Sheng was aggressively pushing forward. Liu Ming had yet to fully adjust his body when the next attack arrived.

“Four hundred and eighty-five large tendons, two hundred six bones, twisting all the strength in my body.”

“I can… make a loud sound with a punch!” Pop!

A Cannon Fist heavily hit the abdomen.

Liu Ming followed the footsteps of Wang Dazhuang, flying into midair.

In the end, with a bang, he heavily fell.

Thankfully, his body was much stronger than Wang Dazhuang’s, so he didn’t pass out directly.

But even so,

Liu Ming lay on the ground, continually dry heaving.

Chen Sheng slowly retracted his fist, and smiled at the students around him.

“Everyone, are you interested in martial arts now?”
