Chapter 1006: After modification: Chapter 46 Yan Yu’s Limit_2

    “You’re gonna get it!” Lin Ning angrily bit him. “No using swordsmanship in boxing!”

    “We’re both Sword Immortals. What else should we use if not swordsmanship?” Yan Yu feigned confusion.

    Before Lin Ning could curse him, Yan Yu’s next round of attacks came.

    Eagle Strikes the Sky!

    Triple Cloud Strike is a series of power-charged combos, with force increasing over time; Eagle Strikes the Sky, in contrast, is purely rapid multi-angle combos. If it were any other profession but a Sword Immortal, it would be hard even to react, let alone defend, leaving them disoriented.

    Lin Ning had solid swordsmanship foundations and realized he couldn’t respond accurately, so he used Night Battle on All Sides:

    No matter how many ways you attack, I just guard one way!

    Yan Yu’s flurry of rapid-fire attacks was fully blocked by Lin Ning with Night Battle on All Sides. Not only did he block them, but he also deflected the force to the side each time, giving Yan Yu the incredible feeling of having met a worthy rival.

    So that’s how it is, I’ll have to up the difficulty.

    Overlord Splitting Mountains!

    Overlord Splitting Mountains involves lifting the Flying Sword into the air, then slashing down with full force. If this were used with a greatsword like the Huangting Kunwu Sword, known for its frontal strength, it could even cut through an opponent’s Flying Sword.

    Using it in physical combat, it remains invincible. Lin Ning was horrified, initially countering with Cang Song Ying Ke, but the force was too overwhelming. He quickly switched back to Night Battle on All Sides. After taking a few hits, he found even Night Battle on All Sides couldn’t withstand the force. Just as he was about to change tactics again, his defense collapsed entirely.

    “Still too inexperienced!” Yan Yu punched heavily, shouting, “One last lesson! When facing an unstoppable attack, don’t try to block it directly!”

    “Who wouldn’t know that!” Lin Ning was utterly despairing. Didn’t we agree to use swordsmanship to break each other’s moves?

    Using her last bit of strength, she angrily hit Yan Yu a few times, then closed her eyes, surrendering herself to fate.

    In less than half an hour, Yan Yu had completely defeated Lin Ning. He tossed her aside to join Yuanzhen and Yun Jin, then turned coldly to Chen Lingyun.

    “Your turn, Chen Lingyun. You’ve been provoking me from the start. Now, there’s no one to save you.”

    “Oh?” Chen Lingyun’s eyes curved in a smile, showing no fear at all. “But after defeating the three of them, how much strength do you have left?”

    “You can try.” Yan Yu took a stance once more, ready to punch.

    “Don’t disappoint me.” Chen Lingyun also prepared her stance, smiling brightly.

    The two locked eyes for a moment, the atmosphere suddenly becoming explosive like thunder.

    Fists clashed, force collided, with no technique, just pure physical power in a savage duel. This was Yan Yu targeting Chen Lingyun’s physical weakness, trying to take her down hard in her weakest area.

    However, after a few exchanges, Yan Yu sensed something was wrong. Although Chen Lingyun’s punches weren’t forceful, their strength endured, making her style unmistakably that of Internal Boxing!

    In boxing, there exists internal and external. External Boxing is about unstoppable momentum, breaking through stone; Internal Boxing focuses on enduring strength, hitting bricks through a cowhide – the hide remains intact, but bricks break.

    Chen Lingyun’s use of Internal Boxing wasn’t very skilled; many details still showed awkwardness, but her enduring strength was undeniable. When their fists collided, she immediately retracted to deflect the force, only absorbing about sixty percent of his full power.

    When Yan Yu’s strength waned and he was withdrawing, Chen Lingyun took the opportunity to push back, using both hands to send his remaining power rebounding into him, causing him to groan and ask in surprise:

    “Where did you learn such moves?”

    “Hehehe.” Chen Lingyun’s eyes narrowed, delighting in his discomfort. “Guess?”

    Actually, there’s no need to guess. It’s just that the rich and powerful can buy any knowledge.

    Yan Yu had fought three consecutive battles and was running low on stamina. With Chen Lingyun wearing him down, he felt close to exhaustion.

    Can’t get tangled up with her, must end this quickly!

    Yan Yu set his mind but didn’t realize if Chen Lingyun had seen through or guessed his stamina issue. She kept using Internal Boxing’s Coiling Silk Force to wear him down. In game terms, she opened a counter-damage mode, taking all the hits without dodging, reflecting as much damage as possible.

    Damn it! That Northern Border cultivation, although it enriched combat experience, severely weakened my stamina. All because of that sneaky golden hair!

    Now my remaining strength won’t support any more tactical changes. Since Chen Lingyun wants to play Internal Boxing, I’ll just go Eagle Strikes the Sky with light-speed infinite combos, see if she can counter each one!

    Yan Yu used his last bit of energy to start an infinite flurry of attacks, the furious wind from his punches nearly tearing the air apart.

    Chen Lingyun couldn’t hold out; at first, she could still barely counter, but soon her rhythm broke, her defense collapsed, and she was completely defeated.

    Yan Yu beat her with great difficulty, having no strength left, collapsing beside her, breathing heavily to recover.

    “Four people,” Chen Lingyun suddenly said, lying beside him.

    “What?” Yan Yu frowned.

    “Your limit is fighting four people consecutively.” Although Chen Lingyun had no strength left, her smile grew sweeter. “If Ruoxi joins, you’re finished.”

    “Ridiculous.” Yan Yu was shocked but pretended to be unconcerned, sneering, “What good would Ruoxi’s combat power do? Be our punching bag?”

    “Heh.” Chen Lingyun said gleefully, “Doesn’t matter, you’re done. Just wait and see.”

    Yan Yu said nothing, growing apprehensive.

    This gauntlet fight, I made no mistakes, yet almost lost to Chen Lingyun. Is my limit really four people?

    Damn, Zhenhai Team has five members! If I can’t win even my own team, how can I establish my reputation outside?

    Lost in thought, Chen Lingyun nudged him from beside:

    “Move over.”

    “Why?”

    “I’m about to fall off the bed.”

    Yan Yu shifted until he was next to Lin Ning.

    Chen Lingyun hugged his arm, her smile growing sweeter.

    After about an hour’s rest, everyone started to head to the bathroom to freshen up.

    “Who won in the end?” When Yan Yu went into the bathroom, Zhao Yuanzhen, drying her hair, eagerly asked.

    She had fought first and fell asleep after losing, not knowing who won afterwards.

    “I was the last one.” Chen Lingyun admitted, “I lost.”

    “Tch.” Zhao Yuanzhen was annoyed. “Knew you couldn’t be relied on! All our efforts were in vain!”

    “But I figured out Yan Yu’s weakness.” Chen Lingyun continued smiling.

    “Really?” Lin Ning asked unbelievingly, still a bit flushed. “It seemed… that he had endless stamina. Does he really have a weakness?”

    “Don’t focus too much on winning and losing,” Su Yunjin softly said, “Isn’t it most important that everyone had fun?”

    “‘Isn’t it most important that everyone had fun!''” Zhao Yuanzhen mimicked Su Yunjin sarcastically before spitting, “Gross! He’s not here, stop pretending, Yun Jin!”

    “Here’s what I think: in a duel, you must win! If you want to give your all and still be knocked out, then mocked as weak chicken, that’s your business. I can’t stand being ridiculed and enjoy it!”

    Su Yunjin smiled helplessly.

    “What’s his weakness?” Zhao Yuanzhen pressed on.

    “Simple.” Chen Lingyun wasn’t hiding anything, “His stamina limit is four people. If Ruoxi joins, he definitely won’t last.”

    “Really!” Zhao Yuanzhen was overjoyed. S~ea??h the n?vel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
