This Was Too Easy

In the blink of an eye.

Du Peng suddenly let out a loud shout. His clothes billowed, and even the air hummed and trembled.

The spiritual energy within his qi sea and dantian abruptly began climbing at an almost frenzied pace!

Immediately after.

The Primordial Fist was unleashed...

Fist shadows filled the sky like a violent storm, immensely powerful.

Lu Yun stood quietly to one side, his eyes unblinking as he caught every tiny movement of the figure before him.

Just then.

Without any warning.

A crisp system notification quietly rang beside his ears.

[ Ding! Detected that the host is observing the Primordial Fist...]

[ Fist technique experience +1]

[ Congratulations, Host! 100x critical hit triggered, fist technique experience +100]

"Hiss..."

"No way?"

"Just watching someone else demonstrate a martial skill can trigger a hundredfold critical hit?!"

In an instant.

Lu Yun could hardly believe his ears.

After a brief daze.

A trace of wild joy appeared in his eyes.

"Haha!"

"I was planning to practice after going back. I never expected this would work too!"

"If this speed keeps up, perhaps I only need to watch it once to completely comprehend all the fist intent."

"Little Lu, what's wrong? Was I demonstrating the fist technique too quickly for you to see clearly?"

While demonstrating, Du Peng happened to catch Lu Yun's expression from the corner of his eye and assumed that Lu Yun had failed to keep up with the rhythm of the fist technique.

"Mm... it's nothing... Master Du, don't mind me. Just continue demonstrating the remaining moves."

Lu Yun immediately came back to his senses, though his expression still seemed somewhat strange.

Du Peng could not say much more.

He merely sighed inwardly:

"Young people these days really would rather die than lose face. Look at Little Lu's bewildered expression—he clearly didn't understand a thing!"

However.

Since he had promised Lu Yun that he would demonstrate the Primordial Unity Fist in full, he did not dwell on it too much.

Very soon...

He refocused on demonstrating the next moves.

Astonishing fist wind erupted once more.

This time...

Du Peng deliberately wanted Lu Yun to witness the true power of the Primordial Unity Fist.

And he also harbored a faint intention of making Lu Yun retreat in the face of difficulty.

Therefore...

As he performed the fist technique, not only did he not slow down in the slightest, he even used a threefold amplification.

The pressure in the surroundings instantly intensified, and even the void trembled faintly.

Like the surface of a lake that had originally been calm as a mirror, ripples quietly spread outward in circles.

Almost at the same time.

As Du Peng began performing the fist technique again, the system notifications rose and fell once more.

[ Ding! Detected that the host is observing the Primordial Fist...]

[ Fist technique experience +1]

[ Congratulations, Host! 100x critical hit triggered, fist technique experience +100]

[ Ding! Detected that the host is observing the Primordial Fist...]

[ Fist technique experience +1]

[ Congratulations, Host! 100x critical hit triggered, fist technique experience +100]

About seven or eight minutes later.

Du Peng finally demonstrated the final move, Heavenly Body Hanging Upside Down, and slowly came to a stop.

At this point.

He had demonstrated every move of the Primordial Unity Fist completely from beginning to end.

He reached up to wipe the sweat from his forehead and looked toward Lu Yun, who seemed somewhat absentminded in the distance.

"How was it, Little Lu? How much of this fist technique did you roughly understand?"

"I know you must have plenty of doubts in your heart, but there's no need to feel discouraged or disappointed."

"With your current martial attainments, even grasping the surface of this fist technique is indeed a little premature."

Du Peng spoke for quite a while, but seeing Lu Yun still looking utterly lost, he could not help shaking his head inwardly.

I should have slowed down my attacks a little.

Or perhaps.

I did not need to demonstrate the whole thing at all.

Back then.

When he cultivated this fist technique, he had suffered no small amount of hardship as well.

Lu Yun was merely in the Body Tempering Realm, and his injuries had yet to fully heal.

In such a short time.

Not to mention comprehending a high-grade Yellow-rank martial skill—even memorizing every move by rote would have been asking too much.

Besides.

Across all the Human Bases on Sky Net Star, based on Du Peng's previous interactions with him, a genius of Lu Yun's caliber could at most be considered C-rank.

One had to know.

Since the Spirit Revival Era, the geniuses born on this planet had been as countless as the sands of the Ganges.

A mere C-rank genius was nothing at all.

When Du Peng was young, he had been rated B-rank during the martial artist assessment.

But.

What use had that been?

He had still spent several years, and even now had only reached the level of the third layer.

Unless you were an A-rank... or even an S-rank genius.

Otherwise.

In such a brief amount of time.

It was simply impossible to master the essence of a high-grade Yellow-rank cultivation technique.

"Whew~"

"Is it over?"

Just as Du Peng's thoughts ran wild.

Lu Yun, standing to one side, took a long breath.

Without realizing it.

The system notifications that had been rising and falling in his mind finally stopped.

At this moment, the nearly transparent attribute panel also popped up on its own.

Host: Lu Yun

System Activation, First Stage: 100x Critical Hit Amplification

Martial Skills: Thousand Mountains Saber Technique (lv7 100%), Primordial Unity Fist (lv4 39%)

Strength Level: Innate Realm Mid-Stage

"Holy crap!"

"This was too easy!"

"In just a few minutes, I... actually leveled up again!"
