The Limitless Power of the Fist

After witnessing Li Shu's strength, Krillin did not dare to be the slightest bit careless.

[Combat Power: 35]

Watching Krillin charge in rapidly, Li Shu decided to test just how "infinitely powerful" the so-called [Kun Fist] truly was.

Li Shu turned slightly to the side, a confident, charming smile playing on his lips. He beckoned to the incoming Krillin, then immediately began performing a high-difficulty between-the-legs dribbling maneuver.

"?" Krillin.

"?" Son Goku.

"?" Master Roshi.

"?" Audience.

The host was left completely dumbfounded: "What... what kind of move is this? My god! Contestant Li Shu has actually started playing basketball! Could this be a brand-new style we've never seen before? Is it called Basketball Fist?!"

Everyone was bewildered, and Krillin was even more at a loss, completely unable to grasp what kind of technique Li Shu was using; it looked like nothing but openings!

He had never seen him use it before, either.

But since he had already launched his attack, there was no turning back; he gritted his teeth and pressed the assault.

Li Shu was speechless at this moment. He never imagined that the opening stance of [Kun Fist] would be so explosive. Had he known it would come to this, he never would have used this move under the eyes of the public.

At the same time, a fist intent known as [Awkward] began to spread silently from Li Shu as the center.

Even Li Shu, the one executing the technique, was not spared; an extremely awkward feeling rose inexplicably in his heart.

Krillin bore the brunt of it. He suddenly felt his current movements were incredibly embarrassing; his ten toes curled involuntarily, and goosebumps erupted all over his body.

This sudden change caused his attack to lose its form, exposing a massive opening.

"It's over!" Krillin's expression turned to horror, having no idea what had just happened.

However, Li Shu could not take this opportunity to defeat Krillin in one blow, because once [Kun Fist] was unleashed, it could not be stopped midway; the entire set had to be completed.

"Damn it! Such important information, why didn't you tell me beforehand, System?"

Li Shu was furious, his body swinging uncontrollably. He suddenly turned, one shoulder high and one low, using the lower shoulder to continuously bump against Krillin's flying kick.

This move was none other than the renowned Iron Mountain Lean!

With every bump Li Shu delivered, the [Awkward] fist intent grew stronger.

With a few popping sounds, Krillin's toes actually tore through his shoes, poking out, and under the force of the Iron Mountain Lean, he tumbled to the ground.

Krillin's expression was one of agony as he twisted and turned on the floor, as if his heart were enduring an unspeakable torment, every hair on his body standing on end.

Yet, Li Shu's offensive was not over.

The host suppressed the awkwardness in his heart and commentated: "What is happening? What is going on?! Is Contestant Li Shu's Basketball Fist really this powerful? With just one strike, he's beaten Contestant Krillin to the point of collapse!"

"This is a perfect opportunity! Will Contestant Li Shu consider their camaraderie, or will he press the attack?"

"What?! Contestant Li Shu has chosen neither, and is instead dancing on the spot! Is he mocking his opponent?! My god!"

Li Shu was roaring frantically in his mind: "Stop it! You damn System, I told you to stop!"

However, his body continued to dance uncontrollably, one hand covering his crotch, the other making a 'three' gesture while shaking, turning slightly to the side and retreating on one foot.

"Stop! I can't retreat anymore! I'm going to fall out of the ring!"

Li Shu was in a total panic; he never expected [Kun Fist] to be this terrifying.

Fortunately, he had the [Thick Skin] skill, otherwise, he would have likely tried to find a crack in the ground to crawl into by now.

Following the final gesture of pointing both index fingers in a heart shape, Li Shu's [Kun Fist] was finally finished.

Krillin lay on the ground, foaming at the mouth and twitching uncontrollably; he was so overwhelmed by the awkwardness that he had completely lost the ability to fight.

After a 10-second countdown, the host announced the result of the first semi-final: Li Shu wins!

To Li Shu's surprise, as his set of [Kun Fist] concluded, the female audience in the stands erupted, shouting his name.

Especially after the host announced Li Shu's victory, the female audience ignited the entire arena, their cheers becoming even more frantic!

"Li Shu-kun! Can we have dinner together tonight?"

"Li Shu-kun! Do you have a girlfriend? Can I go on a date with you?"

Li Shu stared at the crowd in shock. He never imagined that while he felt incredibly awkward on stage, the female audience would be this excited.

Is this the power of Kun?

At the same time, the System's reward descended once more!

"Congratulations, you have obtained the achievement 'Heartthrob', received the reward: one bottle of [Water of Oblivion], Achievement Points +5!"

"[Water of Oblivion]: After use, you may forget one skill."

Water of Oblivion? Good stuff. Li Shu waved to the audience and returned backstage, leaving the mess for the host to handle.

Fortunately, the host, who was doubling as the referee, was professional enough; it only took him a few minutes to pacify the frantic female fans in the crowd.

"Second semi-final! Son Goku VS Nam!"

Following the host's command, the duel between Son Goku and Nam was ready to ignite at any moment!

In the resting area, Li Shu found it difficult to calm his mind and watch Wukong's match; the power of the Kun Fist he had just unleashed still left him feeling lingering fear.

Should I use the Water of Oblivion to forget this skill? Li Shu felt a bit conflicted.

Forget it, having more skills is never a burden; there will always be a time to use it, I just won't use it in daily life. Li Shu made his decision quickly.

He suddenly remembered Krillin, who had been carried away by the medical staff, and hurried over to feed him a Senzu Bean.

Krillin slowly regained consciousness; he had been knocked out cold by the sheer Awkwardness of Li Shu's fist intent.

The moment he saw Li Shu, Krillin still felt a lingering fear, his body trembling uncontrollably.

He then gave a bitter smile and said, "What kind of move was that? I didn't even have room to resist."

"Just something I messed around with when I was bored. If you want to learn it, I can teach you," Li Shu said with a smile.

Krillin shook his head hurriedly, "Forget it, I can't learn that. I really can't pull off those movements."

Li Shu smiled awkwardly. To be honest, if it weren't for the Thick Skin skill, he would probably be so ashamed right now that he would commit seppuku.

Just then, Master Roshi ran over with an excited look on his face. He grabbed Li Shu's hand and said urgently, "Li Shu, you must teach me this set of fist techniques!"

Looking at the fanatical Master Roshi, Li Shu understood immediately and nodded, "No problem, Master Mutaito."

Master Roshi beamed with joy, already fantasizing about the wonderful scene of charming thousands of young girls after mastering the Kun Fist.

Li Shu, however, frowned. Why hadn't the system's voice sounded yet?

This made no sense; had this not triggered an achievement quest?
