First Battle with Luo Feng

The crowd looked at Luo Wen with utter disbelief, as if he were some kind of monster.

Luo Feng could hardly believe it either.

His punching strength was only around 700 kilograms, and his speed was 17 meters per second.

Luo Wen was even a year younger than him, yet his strength had surpassed his?

How had he done it?

Could it be that Luo Wen, like him, suffered from headaches and saw his strength soar after falling unconscious?

Faced with the shock of Jiang Nian, Luo Feng, and the other students, Luo Wen's expression remained unchanged.

He did not think himself particularly gifted.

The truly exceptional geniuses of the Swallowed Star world could reach Star-Level at his age.

He had not even become a Martial Artist yet. What right did he have to be proud?

Not to mention anything else, once Luo Feng became a Martial Artist and his Spiritual Master talent erupted, his combat power would leave Luo Wen far behind.

"Hall Master, I personally brought him through the tests. There is absolutely no mistake."

Instructor Wu said.

After recovering from his shock, Jiang Nian was immediately filled with boundless delight.

With this kind of talent, he would reach the Quasi-Martial Artist level in at most another year.

A seventeen-year-old Quasi-Martial Artist had immeasurable potential.

And since Luo Wen came from their Yi'an District Limit Martial Hall, if Jiang Nian recommended him upward, Jiang Nian, as the hall master, would receive great credit.

"Good, good, good! Wu Kuan, you did very well."

Jiang Nian excitedly patted Instructor Wu on the shoulder before walking toward Luo Wen.

"Luo Wen, your talent is exceptional. Wu Kuan told me this is only your second time at our Martial Arts Hall. How about this? Spar with one of the students, and I'll guide you based on your weaknesses."

Jiang Nian did not waste words. He was eager to guide Luo Wen.

Jiang Nian swept his gaze across the Advanced Students present before saying, "Luo Feng, you spar with Luo Wen."

In Jiang Nian's view, Luo Wen probably lacked combat experience. Though Luo Feng was slightly weaker, he had plenty of actual fighting experience. The two of them should be evenly matched.

"All right!"

Luo Feng nodded, then stepped out from the crowd, flexing his fists with eager anticipation.

Luo Wen's strength had stirred his competitive spirit.

Luo Wen nodded as well, taking several steps forward to face Luo Feng from a distance.

"I never expected my first battle in the Swallowed Star world to be against Luo Feng!"

Fighting spirit surged within Luo Wen.

He was looking forward to crossing hands with Luo Feng as well.

The crowd formed a circle and watched Luo Wen and Luo Feng spar.

"Luo Wen, be careful. I'm coming," Luo Feng warned after taking his stance.

"Come on." Luo Wen nodded and prepared for battle as well.

In an instant, Luo Feng became a blur as he charged toward Luo Wen.

Luo Wen's eyes narrowed. He stamped his foot and rushed forward to meet him.

The two collided at once, fists and elbows clashing as they traded blows.

Luo Feng was surprised to discover that Luo Wen showed no panic at all under his assault. Even his expression remained calm.

That meant Luo Wen was not as lacking in combat experience as Luo Feng had imagined.

Coupled with Luo Wen's greater strength, whether it was elbow strikes, whip kicks, or any other attacks, Luo Wen could block them perfectly.

After more than ten exchanges, Luo Feng had no choice but to admit that he could not break through Luo Wen's defense.

Luo Wen was also gradually adapting to this fierce close-quarters combat.

His heart beat faster and faster.

The sensation of fists meeting flesh thrilled him!

His fight with Luo Feng now was like a duel between martial arts masters in a television drama—swift, sharp, and violent.

Every collision produced a dull thud.

They moved so quickly that afterimages appeared.

As Luo Wen watched this scene, a word gradually formed in his mind—extraordinary!

The exhilaration brought by being extraordinary was beyond description.

Luo Wen only felt his heart pounding like a drum and his blood rushing like a torrent.

If making several billion by reselling rice and Kroll Alloy had felt like a 1, then this feeling was a 100. They were completely incomparable!

Perhaps noticing Luo Wen's distraction, Luo Feng swiftly grabbed both of his hands. His right leg suddenly gathered power as he drove his knee toward Luo Wen's chest.

That knee strike was incredibly fierce. If it landed solidly, Luo Wen would be sent flying and lose his fighting ability.

Luo Wen did not panic. His arm strength erupted as he seized Luo Feng's left arm with his left arm, then exerted force and shifted to Luo Feng's left side.

That displacement narrowly avoided Luo Feng's knee strike to the chest.

Taking advantage of the opening, Luo Wen swept with his left leg, intending to knock Luo Feng down while he stood on one leg.

Luo Feng's expression changed, and he inwardly cried out in alarm. He had not expected Luo Wen's adaptability to be so strong.

However, Luo Feng was quick-witted. He also seized Luo Wen's arm and used that force to lift his left foot off the ground, dodging Luo Wen's whip kick.

Then, using the downward momentum of his body, Luo Feng tried to throw Luo Wen to the ground.

Luo Wen's expression did not change. He spun with his back turned, withstanding Luo Feng's downward pull. Then he exerted force through his waist and abdomen and executed an over-the-shoulder throw, forcibly slamming Luo Feng onto the ground with brute strength in a 180-degree flip.

With a bang, Luo Feng landed hard on his back, producing a muffled impact.

The tremendous force made Luo Feng grunt as his blood and qi churned within him.

Luo Wen did not press the attack.

After all, this was only a spar. There was no need to be so ruthless.

Seeing Luo Feng thrown to the ground, everyone wore shocked expressions.

Luo Feng's fighting techniques ranked among the best of the Advanced Students, yet he had actually been knocked down by the newcomer Luo Wen.

Jiang Nian and Wu Kuan exchanged a glance, both somewhat surprised.

Neither had expected Luo Wen to possess such extensive combat experience as well.

"Senior Brother Luo, are you all right?"

Luo Feng rubbed his lower back and grimaced as he straightened up. Luo Wen immediately stepped forward and extended a hand.

Luo Feng smiled, took Luo Wen's hand, and stood up.

"I'm fine, I'm fine."

Luo Feng dusted himself off, then said to Luo Wen in amazement, "Luo Wen, your combat experience is impressive. That change of moves caught me completely off guard!"

Luo Wen smiled. "I only won because of brute strength. It was nothing. If our strength had been about the same, I definitely wouldn't have beaten you."

Luo Feng smiled. Luo Wen was giving him an out.

Although he had lost the spar, his impression of Luo Wen had instead become even better.

At this moment, Jiang Nian walked forward.

"Luo Wen, to be honest, I am very surprised. You defeated Luo Feng so cleanly and decisively. From that fight just now, you clearly have extensive fighting experience and very good combat awareness."

Jiang Nian praised him without reservation.

"Thank you for the praise, Instructor."

Luo Wen smiled.

"However, just as Wu Kuan told me, your Power exertion technique is not very refined. You mobilize your strength too slowly, and your efficiency is not high either. Next, I will focus on guiding you in this area."

Jiang Nian's tone shifted as he spoke with slight seriousness.

Power exertion techniques ran through the entire career of a Martial Artist, and Jiang Nian understood their importance very clearly.

"Mm." Luo Wen nodded seriously as well.

Power exertion was indeed his greatest weakness.

For many years before this, he had trained alone through trial and error, with no one to guide him at all.

Later, he joined S.H.I.E.L.D. There were indeed instructors there, but what could S.H.I.E.L.D. people possibly know about advanced Power exertion techniques?

At most, they could teach Luo Wen some fighting techniques.

Luo Wen's little understanding of Power exertion seemed crude and unsophisticated in the Swallowed Star world.
