In a remote valley on the outskirts of Tianshui City, there wasn't a soul in sight.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!
A figure flickered through the valley, leaving afterimages in midair. An ordinary person's eyes couldn't keep up with such speed, and even the air seemed to warp.
Sand and stones flew across the ground. A punch shot out, true energy burst forth, and a sonic boom erupted with terrifying force. Bang! Ten meters away, a boulder half a person's height shattered into pieces.
With another boom, he kicked out. A thick tree across from him snapped from a distance and slowly toppled over, crashing to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.
When he finished the set of punches, the entire valley had been transformed beyond recognition. Shattered stone and dust lay everywhere, and the landscape was reduced to ruins, as if it had been bombarded by missiles.
"I've finally reached the First Heaven of Martial Artist Realm, where true energy can be released beyond the body and the Hundred-Step Divine Fist can kill from a distance." The figure was clearly Xia Ping. He clenched his fists, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
He could feel how different the Martial Artist Realm was from the Martial Apprentice Realm. His true energy was several times more abundant, and with the help of his mental power, he could project it outside his body. A single punch was more than ten times as powerful.
Before, he'd relied on brute strength alone. Now, with true energy behind his blows, his destructive power was terrifying. One punch could reduce steel to scrap.
From ten meters away, he could even shatter an enemy's heart.
"So this is the power of the Martial Artist Realm? It really is formidable. The Martial Apprentice Realm can't compare." Xia Ping
