I Can See Your Combat Power

As the Water Moon Realm opened up at the top of the Divine Fire Hall, the sect disciples knew their much-anticipated moment had arrived.

Everyone craned their necks and looked up, not wanting to miss any detail.

As sect disciples, they were reluctant to believe that the martial arts cultivation of a scion of a noble house could completely crush theirs. If that were truly the case, wouldn’t all their days and nights of devoted martial arts study within their sect become meaningless?

In the mirror, two phantom spirits appeared that were like humans. One was enveloped within more than a dozen magma fire rings, and behind it was a Fire Demon Dharma Aspect, making the phantom spirit resemble a flame demon. In contrast, the opposing phantom spirit looked utterly ordinary, not at all like one who had mastered secret techniques. It was just a mediocre warrior from the Fierce Realm, lacking any hint of sharpness.

“These two phantom spirits don’t seem like a combination that could clear the stage,” Lei Dong of the Qiyao Temple said, frowning as he looked at the mirror. “That Fire Spirit is on the pure Yang and utmost firm path; after the enhancement of its affinity, its strength is at most 30, while the other spirit doesn’t show any sign of possessing external techniques. It looks like it won’t exceed a strength of 5. Has Master Chen made a mistake?”

In ancient times, secret techniques were referred to as external techniques, because anyone who could develop these techniques to perfection would manifest them externally. Hence, the martial arts masters of ancient times could tell at a glance what kind of divine powers the opponent had cultivated and what secret techniques they were proficient in.

As martial arts flourished to this day, warriors increasingly pursued their True Heart, not wanting to be influenced by secret techniques as the norm and instead seeking to master them. So, before engaging in combat, it was impossible for warriors of that time to discern what secret techniques the opponent had studied. A case like Xiao Ziyu, with red hair dancing wildly like fire serpents, was already an indication of losing control.

The sect disciples who came to the Martial Saint Mountain for the martial arts competition had varying levels of cultivation, but with more than twenty years immersed in martial arts, their judgements were not to be doubted. They could see at a glance that the ordinary phantom spirit was no match for the Fire Demon Spirit; the lack of any external technique was seen as an extremely weak display. Only those with strength less than 10 would maintain their original appearance as a warrior.

Lei Dong was not the only one in doubt, the representatives from several other sects also wore puzzled expressions. However, the content of the Water Moon Realm did not stop because of their doubts. Upon sighting each other, the two phantom spirits quickly closed the distance.

And just as Lei Dong had predicted, right up until they approached each other, the ordinary, mediocre phantom spirit did not unleash any trace of secret techniques and was directly incinerated by the Fire Demon Dharma Aspect, turned into a pile of ashes and embers.

“What is this!? Is Master Chen trying to tell us that the secret technique combination with 166 wins and 0 losses is this Fire Spirit? How can such a combination, with strength only at 30, defeat my Five Qi Towards the Yuan combination?!” Cao Changqing raised his voice in dissatisfaction upon seeing the common phantom spirit’s physical body annihilated, but before he could finish speaking, he saw within the Water Moon Realm, a dazzlingly brilliant soul emerging from the burnt remains.

Who would have thought that such a radiant soul could reside within an utterly ordinary warrior, emitting a brilliance that, despite being only a shadow, felt sacred and inviolable.

The boundless Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth began to dance. The fierce and violent Fire Demon Dharma Aspect prostrated in submission, while the soul held the sun, moon, and stars in its hands, with tides surging within its soul body’s Dharma Aspect. It attacked the Fire Spirit with a punch that drew out a brilliant milky way.

The milky way passed through the Fire Spirit’s body, and the once insurmountable Fire Demon fell apart, soul shattered.

“What is this!” a sect disciple burst out in fury. “Didn’t my Yang Fire Avatar combination already kill the opponent? That means I’ve already won, doesn’t it? What’s with that soul’s counterattack, when the other is nothing but a wandering soul? Does that still count as my loss?”

The one who spoke was Duan Jiuchong, Duan Longshu’s younger brother and the rising talent of the Evil King Palace. Many sect disciples cast sympathetic glances his way, and several had already begun to figure out the implications.

If it were a sparring match, Duan Jiuchong’s Fire Spirit physique would certainly win, but when it comes to a fight to the death…

Within the realm of the Water Moon, Duan Jiuchong’s Fire Phantom Spirit had already been scattered to the winds, while another entirely mundane spirit, though only its soul remained, dazzled onlookers with its radiance, seemingly unable to dissipate anytime soon.

However, what kind of secret technique combination could enable a soul to deliver such a brilliant strike?

“I can see traces of the ‘Yang God Art’ within the soul!”

“The fist carries the sun and the moon, this combination must include the secret technique of ‘Heavenly Poles and Stars Will,’ allowing the fist to traverse the galaxy…”

“To suppress the Fire Demon like that, there must be the ‘Earthly Fiend Emperor Extreme Thought’ involved; otherwise, the fierce and unruly Fire Demon Totem would know no fear.”

“Just that wouldn’t be enough to burst the molten lava Fire Demon Body with one punch, so what other secret techniques are part of the combination?”

“Haven’t you noticed? That ordinary spirit was incinerated with a single hit by the Fire Demon, turning flesh and bone to dust, but what about its essence blood? A single blow from a Fire Demon should not have the power to evaporate all the essence blood and bones of a warrior from the Fierce Realm, and that soul’s intensity is also too exaggerated, not something a few soul-strengthening secret techniques with compatibility boosts could achieve.”

“If you add secret techniques that burn essence blood and spiritual power, then it makes more sense. It’s just unknown whether he used ‘Burning Spirit Blood Curse’ or ‘Dragon Demon Sacrifice.’

After all, they were all exceptional disciples from their sects, unlike ordinary clan disciples who could only watch the Water Moon Realm and exclaim, “Wow!” “Ah!” “So powerful!” In admiration, the sect formations, having seen the footage, had already begun reconstructing Tang Luo’s secret technique model.

Longxi and a few others were secretly shocked because the secret techniques mentioned by the sect disciples were precisely the key techniques in Tang Luo’s “Equality of All Beings.”

The fantasies within the Water Moon Realm continued unabated; Tang Luo’s ordinary spirit faced off against several opponents, yet whether it was facing spirits of strength over 20 or a worthless combination of strength just 5, Tang Luo’s spirit was killed with a single blow, and the resplendent soul that emerged after the physical collapse would kill the enemy with a sure strike.

No matter the opponent, facing that soul with the fist path through the galaxy, none had the slightest ability to resist.

And amidst the varying opinions of the sect disciples, Tang Luo’s “Equality of All Beings” secret technique combination was stripped of any secrecy.

“And you still say there’s no cheating!?” Cao Changqing from the Beast Taming Sect said indignantly, “Combining ‘Heavenly Poles and Stars Will’ with ‘Earthly Fiend Emperor Extreme Thought,’ the Yin-Yang fusion forms a ‘Circumpolar Star Soul Body,’ which is the ultimate intensity limit for a Fierce Realm soul. However, you added ‘Yang God Art’ and ‘Yin Soul Method,’ allowing the four soul-enhancing secret techniques to boost each other even further, bestowing the strength to travel out of the body after death, plus the essence blood sacrificed through ‘Burning Spirit Blood Curse,’ multiplying the complete intensity of the four-part Yin-Yang boosted soul several times over. You’re playing a good game, but tell me, how can an ordinary warrior from the Fierce Realm withstand such powerful quadripartite soul-strengthening secret techniques!?”
