"Stab it, stab the gaps! Don't chop!"
Liang Qu locked Mountain Ghost in a crushing hold and roared.
Mountain Ghost was not without weaknesses. Its formidable defense came entirely from skin that was wrinkled and cracked like tree bark!
Such hard skin hindered movement, which was why it had cracked like bark, creating gaps for mobility. That was its greatest weakness!
Hearing this, Li LiBo and Chen Jiechang changed their chops into thrusts.
The Bloodletting Knives were already long, narrow, and sharp, suited for stabbing. The two had not spent two months training at the Martial Arts School for nothing.

Liang Qu could no longer hold it down. His palms were about to be torn apart, and he had no choice but to release Mountain Ghost's left arm.
