It was that mysterious powerful figure.

He did indeed come.

A mysterious smile appeared on Sun Fei's lips.

No longer concealing his presence, Sun Fei swooped down from the solitary peak like an arrow, quickly arriving outside the Giant Pit Battlefield. Then, using the old method under [ Assassin Mode ], he chose a medium-powered magic circle and carefully passed through it, Sun Fei at the inner edge of the Giant Pit Battlefield.

"Hmm?" The mysterious expert's usually calm face finally showed a hint of surprise when he saw how Sun Fei passed through the magic circle.

Although he cultivated Dou Qi, he still had some understanding of the principles of magic. The Seven-Star Class protective magic array that Sun Fei had just passed through contained at least three hundred magic circuits, all interconnected and intricate. The flow of magic power and the timing of its movement were incredibly unpredictable. Touching even the slightest bit would instantly trigger the magic array, unleashing a terrifying full-force attack from a Seven-Star Class magic. For someone like King of Chambord to simply rely on his physical agility and perception to foresee and 'walk' through the magic array without triggering a single magic circuit was simply inconceivable, almost a divine skill.

The mysterious expert knew that with his strength far exceeding that of King of Chambord, it was absolutely impossible for him to imitate this method.

"Senior!" Sun Fei the magic circle, recovered slightly, and stood in place to Earth Inquiry.

"Hmm." A look of surprise flashed across the mysterious expert's face. He looked Sun Fei up and down for a moment, a smile playing on his lips, and nodded.

"Senior, may I ask who you are...?" Sun Fei wanted to know the origin of the mysterious expert.

"Punch." The mysterious expert waved his hand, interrupting Sun Fei's question, seemingly unwilling to discuss the topic, and directly shouted at Sun Fei.

"Huh?" Sun Fei was stunned, not understanding.

"Punch me." The mysterious powerhouse spoke calmly, his tone still devoid of any warmth, then added, "Go all out and punch me."

Sun Fei understood now.

It looks like another fight is about to break out!

Yesterday, he took the initiative to pressure and attack me, but today it was my turn to make the first move. It seems my guess was right.

Sun Fei discovered a striking characteristic of the mysterious expert: he disliked speaking. To put it dramatically, he was extremely sparing with words. If one word could clearly express his meaning, he would absolutely not utter a second.

"Senior, please be careful!"

Sun Fei let out a soft shout, and his body erupted with multicolored light. The armor and magical protective gear he had purchased from the NPC merchant in the [ Kurast Docks ] area of Diablo World map instantly appeared on his body, protecting every vital point on Sun Fei body from head to toe: wrists, fists, upper arms, shoulders, chest and back, waist and abdomen, thighs, knees, calves, ankles, and feet... The densely packed armor pieces were incredibly strange, releasing an astonishing aura, making Sun Fei look like a bloodthirsty war monster, ferocious and menacing.

In the next instant, with waves of formidable magical energy ripples, Sun Fei suddenly unleashed the full power of his level 49 Barbarian form. He took a deep breath, clenched his fist, and this simple action seemed to draw all the power in the world into his fist, creating an astonishing force.

" Heavenly Frost Fist... One-Hit Kill!"

Sun Fei unleashed his most powerful killing move in an instant.

In the void, a ten-meter square glass fist imprint, amidst a series of phantom fingers that bloomed like lotus petals, instantly transformed into a meteor from outer space. Carrying a layer of firelight generated by the intense friction of the air and a sharp, piercing sound, it relentlessly blasted towards the mysterious powerhouse standing ten meters away amidst the chaotic flow of Dou Qi qi created by the Fist Intent Spiritual Imprint in the void.

"Hmm?" The mysterious expert's face showed surprise for the second time, then he nodded and praised softly, "Not bad!"

As he spoke, the mysterious expert's hands moved with remarkable speed. His hands, which had been behind his back, finally emerged to meet the earth-shattering, fiery, glazed fist imprint that was hurtling towards him. With a gentle, unhurried flick, as if brushing away dust, a Big Hand formed from condensed cyan Dou Qi emerged from the cyan light, moving slowly yet swiftly, and instantly blocking his way.

[ Palm Move ].

boom!

The fist and palm prints collided with a deafening roar.

A chilling atmosphere filled the air. After a brief pause, a roar like a volcanic eruption resounded through the sky. The shattered glass-like fragments and the azure flames that filled the sky resembled the most insane fireworks of the end of the century—beautiful, dazzling, and dangerous, adorning the entire dark night sky. Below this 'crazy fireworks' lay a sky full of dust and flying debris, and the ground beneath our feet began to tremble, as if in divine wrath.

It took four or five minutes for this terrifying scene to gradually dissipate.

The glass fist imprint and the [ Palm Move ] shattered simultaneously.

The dust has settled.

"Your strength has increased again." The mysterious expert looked at Sun Fei, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Sun Fei nodded.

"Too fast, this is bad!" The mysterious expert frowned.

Sun Fei was taken aback, but then he understood what the mysterious expert meant.

In the Azeroth Continent, true powerhouses emphasize the balance between strength and mental state. Rapidly increasing strength can lead to a mismatch between mental state and power, ultimately resulting in mental imbalance. Of course, this mental imbalance won't cause the kind of consequences depicted in martial arts novels, such as going into a state of demonic possession. However, it is clearly detrimental to future growth. Many geniuses on the continent have made rapid and unstoppable progress at the Star Class stage, but because they overdraw their talents, their foundations become unstable, and they are stuck at the Nine-Star Class Peak, unable to break through the Star Class- level barrier and advance to the Moon Class powerhouse.

The path of martial arts training, like many things in this world, ultimately leads to the same goal: a solid foundation is a crucial factor that cannot be ignored.

How tall a building can be built depends on the strength of its foundation.

How far a martial artist can go depends on the solidity of their martial arts foundation.

The saying "great things are accumulated over time" perfectly illustrates this principle.

The mysterious expert was astonished by the speed of Sun Fei's growth. Compared to the previous night, Sun Fei's strength had increased alarmingly, subtly rising from the Seven-Star Class Initial Stage to the Seven-Star Class Intermediate Stage. He clearly believed this was because Sun Fei had pursued the growth of pure power while neglecting the foundational work of martial arts. He worried that Sun Fei, like those geniuses in history who flashed like comets, had prematurely exhausted his talent, ultimately suffering the fate of "a prodigy who may not amount to much as a child," hence his warning, "Too fast, not good."

A feeling of gratitude welled up in Sun Fei's heart.

This was the first time since Sun Fei transmigrated that someone had given him guidance in martial arts. This gentle guidance gave him a long-lost sense of familiarity, just like the earnest teachings of the stern-faced professors in his university days.

However, Sun Fei didn't know how to explain his situation to this mysterious expert.

His own growth in strength was entirely unconventional, relying on the Diablo World as a super cheat to kill monsters and level up, unlike other warriors and mages who accumulated and cultivated bit by bit. Therefore, Sun Fei's strength would not suffer from a lack of stamina due to its rapid growth. In fact, as Sun Fei's Spiritual Power continued to increase, the time he could spend killing monsters and leveling up in the Diablo World would be extended, and King Majesty's strength growth rate would only get faster and faster.

Of course, Sun Fei would never share this Diablo World— with anyone else.

"Thank you, senior." That was all Sun Fei could say.

Fortunately, the mysterious expert didn't press the matter. Recalling Sun Fei's miraculous methods when he crossed the magic circle, he understood that King of Chambord seemed to have some unique trump card. In this world, everyone has their own secrets, and the mysterious expert only hinted at them, not wanting to pry into others' secrets.

"Your move just now was too unrestrained and fierce, lacking control, and you couldn't fully unleash the power contained within the move."

As the mysterious expert spoke, he also lightly clenched his fist, and a ten-meter square fist imprint appeared in the void. Although it was formed by his azure Dou Qi, it completely simulated the essence of Sun Fei's [ Heavenly Frost Fist First Form: One-Hit Kill ]. The punch was thrown out, and the speed was also extremely fast, but it did not produce sparks like Sun Fei, nor did it produce a sharp sound of air being torn apart. The fist's momentum was more ethereal, and the fist's path was more unpredictable.

With a single punch, the fist imprint disappeared into the distant horizon like lightning.

Then, in the next instant, a sharp and piercing whistling sound came, followed by a deep red mark in the sky, as if blood had flowed out after the void was torn apart. The bright red mark did not fade away for a long time.

Sun Fei opened his mouth, then remained silent.

This punch was the same move as the [ Heavenly Frost Fist Second Form: One-Hit Kill ] that Sun Fei had used before, condensing the same power and the same fist imprint. However, in the hands of the mysterious expert, the power of the fist imprint was increased by more than three or four times, and the speed of the punch exceeded the speed of sound. It wasn't until the fist imprint disappeared that the booming sound was heard, and the sparks and chaotic air currents generated by friction in the air were also revealed.

quick!

Incredibly fast!

But Sun Fei had more in mind.

"What did you see?" The mysterious expert stood with his hands behind his back for a long time, staring at Sun Fei before asking softly.

"Control."

"Oh?"

"Senior, your punches utilize the same power as mine, and the trajectory, spirit, movements, and method of exertion are exactly the same. However, the power of your punches has increased more than fourfold. This is because your control over your own power has reached an unbelievable level. Only with such precise control can one maximize the power that one's own strength should possess," Sun Fei said slowly.

The mysterious expert nodded. "You're very good."

As he spoke, he flicked his index finger, and a streak of azure light carrying something flew towards him. Sun Fei reached out and grabbed it, but what he got was a book. Before he could even read it, the thin figure in front of him flickered slightly. He still couldn't see how the mysterious expert left, but he had already vanished into thin air.

First update.
