Chapter 174 - 136: An Irresistible Force

Words : 1364 Updated : Oct 12th, 2025

Wang Qi really hadn't expected his first fight in the joint martial arts examination to be such a windfall. Actually, someone was standing there wrapped in Protective Gang Qi, letting him attack? This was practically a gift! Looking at the "kind-hearted person" across from him, Wang Qi felt a bit like he couldn't bring himself to strike and courteously said, "You're being so generous... isn't that bad? Should I let you attack first?" Kun Zhongxuan just thought that Wang Qi wasn't confident he could break through his defense and shook his head, "No need. I'm most proficient in rebounding, Brother Wang can strike without holding back..." "Then I won't be polite!" Wang Qi, with a heart full of gratitude, put strength into his stance and ran toward Kun Zhongxuan. Then, he threw a punch. Wang Qi's fist was light and floaty, seemingly without a trace of power. But Kun Zhongxuan didn't dare to be negligent, adjusting his posture and crossing his arms to defend against the punch with his strongest stance. The fist touched the Gang Qi and then diverted, the anticipated collision of forces didn't happen. Wang Qi's Fist Force was so weak that it couldn't even provoke the counter-reaction of the earth's Qi Gang. A feint? Kun Zhongxuan quickly turned around, always keeping Wang Qi in front of him. Just at that moment, he suddenly felt an intense heat surrounding his body, and the Defensive Magic he had used countless times unexpectedly lost control! What's happening? Kun Zhongxuan hurriedly circulated his internal energy, forcibly squeezing out a surge of strength from his meridians to construct a new layer of Gang Qi. The out-of-control Qi Gang collided fiercely with the freshly generated Gang Qi, making a series of muffled noises. Kun Zhongxuan was nearly squeezed unconscious by the tremendous force. What in the world is going on? How could his one punch shatter my defenses? At that moment, Wang Qi placed a hand on Kun Zhongxuan's shoulder: "Thanks a lot, you truly are a good person." The arena fell dead silent. Is that a loss? Kun Zhongxuan, one of the strongest individuals from the Langde Immortal Institute, lost just like that? "What exactly happened?" Seeing that the Foundation Establishment Stage referee had come down to make a decision, Kun Zhongxuan gave up any thought of counterattacking and glared hard at Wang Qi: "What exactly is that technique?" "Heavenly Entropy Technique." "That guy..." Down below, Hu Jianhao's expression looked rather grim: "I clearly told him that the fellow had mastered the Heavenly Entropy Technique, how could he still dare to use Protective Gang Qi to take his attack head-on?" The Heavenly Entropy Technique was a Supreme Technique based on the second law of thermodynamics and on systems theory; it can ignore all limits and increase the level of chaos within a system. Cultivators who practice the Heavenly Entropy Technique need only to gently sweep their gaze to cause all Protective Gang Qi to collapse on their own! After dealing with his first opponent, Wang Qi prepared to get off the stage to continue his practice. At this moment, a synthesized voice rang out again: "From Xinyue Immortal Institute, Wang Qi, from Langde Immortal Institute, Qiu Yunlong, proceed to the Alpha No. 7 stage for the match." Eh? Wang Qi was somewhat surprised. The scheduling of matches was all automatically arranged by the calculator. For it to arrange for him to have two consecutive fights meant... the system judged that he didn't need to rest? Xiao Qiu next to Hu Jianhao stiffened, a bit uneasy: "Oh boy, is it really me?" Hu Jianhao took a deep breath and patted Qiu Yunlong on the shoulder: "Xiao Qiu, fight well. It's not completely without chance. Just don't make a foolish move like Zhongxuan did." Qiu Yunlong nodded seriously, walking toward the fighting stage with some nervousness. Looking at this skinny fellow, Wang Qi performed a half bow in accordance with Shenzhou etiquette, "Are you Qiu Yunlong?" Qiu Yunlong returned the half bow, "That's right, I'm nothing like the idiot you faced before, so you better be careful." Once it was confirmed that both participants were ready, the referee announced that the battle could begin. Qiu Yunlong's mental method, like Liu Shu's, was also the Cloud Mist Sun Covering Technique. However, his cultivation exceeded Liu Shu's by a notch. As soon as the referee's announcement of the battle's onset echoed, he hastily retreated while an invisible and colorless vortex of mana materialized on his body's surface. The moment this mana appeared, it began to intensify continuously, in just an instant transforming from a gentle breeze to a raging typhoon! Qiu Yunlong was entirely enveloped by the wind force, his figure obscured. A long howl emanated from the youth, as all the wind gathered into his right hand. Suspended mid-air, Qiu Yunlong struck at Wang Qi from a distance with the crushing force concentrated in his hand. Divine Sand Storm! Watching the roaring tornado approach, Wang Qi muttered under his breath, "Honestly, the name would've been more fitting if it was countered with Wave Ripples Mysterious Energy," while drawing his sword to cut. The long sword, surrounded by a faint wind force, sliced diagonally into the gale. Then, to everyone's astonishment, the invincible Divine Sand Storm collapsed of its own accord where Wang Qi's long sword passed through! This was a sword technique deduced from a variant of the Navier-Stokes Formula, possessing an extremely strong countering effect against spells based on fluid mechanics! The long sword cut through the Divine Wind, and Wang Qi used the back of the blade to strike Qiu Yunlong hard on the head, knocking him unconscious. Only then did Hu Jianhao utter the technical term for Wang Qi's sword move, "Turbulence Sword Qi, Rapid Flow Break!" If one thought that a top academic star could only rely on the Heavenly Entropy Technique, they would be gravely mistaken! Wang Qi's goal was to enter the Wanfa Sect using mathematics! Since Wang Qi had defeated Qiu Yunlong with just one strike and he had several more contests to partake in, the calculator in charge of arranging the matches decided to schedule his third bout at the seventh arena designated with the letter 'A'. His third opponent was a disciple from Langde Immortal Institute who practiced Heavenly Song. Having fought Wu Shiqin numerous times, Wang Qi had long since grasped the battle method of this supreme electromagnetic domain mental method and only needed three strikes to easily force that disciple out of the arena. Then came the fourth, and the fifth rounds... Unstoppable like a hot knife through butter! Since the beginning, not a single opponent had made Wang Qi exert more than a few moves! With each victory of Wang Qi, Hu Jianhao's expression grew more unsightly. Each of this guy's victories was built upon the defeat of Langde Immortal Institute. If they suffered too humiliating a defeat, how could the new disciples of Langde generate enough solidarity among themselves? After the sixth Langde disciple was blasted out of the arena by a single move from Wang Qi, Hu Jianhao's face sank completely. He had not underestimated his opponent, yet this guy had still managed to embarrass him greatly! There were twelve matches in total for the joint martial arts examination, eight of which were between the two Immortal Institutes, and four were internal competitions. There were two more chances to defeat Wang Qi. As long as they could defeat Wang Qi in one of those two matches, they wouldn't have lost all face. But... Given Wang Qi's current display of strength, within the entire Langde Immortal Institute, only he and Ai Changyuan could possibly contend against him! While Hu Jianhao's countenance fluctuated, the calculator arranging the matches once again made an announcement, "From Langde Immortal Institute, Hu Jianhao will face Wang Qi from Xinyue Immortal Institute at the seventh arena designated with the letter 'A'."
