Su Hao and Lu Yijiang's sparring session ended after about an hour.
The result was that Lu Yijiang's attacks could not break through Su Hao's defense, while Su Hao only had to lightly poke him with a finger to make his whole body feel awful. Eventually, Lu Yijiang could no longer keep fighting, and the match ended.
Everyone returned to a teahouse in a small town and began chatting.
Recalling the battle just now, Lu Yijiang asked with a face full of confusion, "Mr. Jia Wei, what was that invisible shield around you? It was completely different from our qi. No matter what method I used, I couldn't break through its defense. Instead, it jolted my hands until they hurt terribly."
Su Hao smiled. "This is the Crispy Defense I developed. It is particularly good at defending against forceful impacts. However, Crispy Defense is not invincible. Under your attacks, it would shatter very quickly as well. The reason you could not break it was because while you were attacking, I was replenishing and maintaining it at the same time.
"Put simply, you could shatter my Crispy Defense with three strikes, but by the time you made your second attack, I had already replaced it with a new layer of defense. So, if the power and speed of your attacks exceed the speed at which I can maintain my defense, then with your strength, you can break through it."
Lu Yijiang suddenly understood. "So that's how it is. I really am still too weak. I failed to defeat An Ming King, and I couldn't even break your defense!"
Su Hao said, "You are already very strong. To be honest, apart from the An Ming King you mentioned, you are one of the strongest beings I have seen in more than ten
