Invincibility Begins with Mastery of Fist Techniques-Chapter 92: Degree
Six days later, Zhou Yuanjue's severe injuries had finally healed completely.
During this time, to treat his injuries and further his Cultivation of will, he had once again entered a state of secluded Cultivation, shutting himself off from the outside world.
He also spent an extra two days familiarizing himself with the Star Fire technique.
That morning, at Lu Ming's Duel Training Ground in the suburbs.
Zhou Yuanjue stood in the center of the Duel Training Ground, surrounded by about twenty people.
Most of them were Boxers under Lu Ming's command, including his three most capable Advanced Decisive Fist Masters.
In addition, Wu Tianhe and Ding Jiutong were also on-site.
Zhou Yuanjue had gathered them to test the power of his Star Fire mental burst.
"Alright, the twenty-person test starts now."
Lu Ming announced with a calm expression. Then, without a shred of solidarity, he turned and ran to a corner thirty meters away to stand with Li Qingxuan, content to be just an onlooker.
GULP!
Standing beside Zhou Yuanjue, A Zhi watched as the man's eyes slowly drooped. The Advanced Decisive Fist Master, who had once been knocked out by a single punch from Wu Tianhe, couldn't help but swallow, looking a little tense.
The other Boxers, including the two remaining Advanced Decisive Fist Masters, had nearly identical expressions on their faces.
This wasn't like the first time they had met Zhou Yuanjue, when they had been completely ignorant of his strength.
As the Southern Fighting Tournament progressed, they had gained a much deeper understanding of the terrifying power wielded by formidable Martial Artists. The man standing before them was among the absolute elite, possessing a level of strength they could barely imagine.
"Don't be nervous. Experiencing such a powerful will is good for you," Wu Tianhe said with a smile, patting A Zhi on the shoulder.
And just at that moment, a strange feeling suddenly arose in everyone's hearts.
A jolt went through them, and they couldn't help but fall silent, all eyes turning to the tall figure in the middle.
This time, they saw it clearly: a distinct, seven-colored halo behind Zhou Yuanjue's head. Within the halo, there was a faint, brilliant trace of gold.
'This is...'
Having never witnessed such a scene firsthand, A Zhi and the others felt their pupils contract. Their mouths fell open; it was as if they were seeing some kind of Magic.
'Is the man standing before us human or a celestial being?'
The next moment, they saw Zhou Yuanjue's eyes snap open.
SCREECH!!
They saw it with their own eyes. Zhou Yuanjue's will manifested as an immense Flaming Giant Bird, spreading its wings to soar behind him. The great bird flapped its wings, and what felt like tiny sparks of fire drifted down onto them.
BOOM!!
They felt their spirits violently ignited by those sparks as a strange restlessness surged within their hearts.
'As the cosmos turns, a gentleman must strive for endless self-improvement!'
'Struggle! Strive! Constantly surpass yourselves!'
'Don't let your time and youth go to waste! Make your lives worth something! Transcend your current circumstances!'
Their blood began to race, their Spirits surging with excitement. They felt as if their own wills had become eagles, desperately beating their wings to fly ever higher.
However, the excitement on their faces quickly froze.
For if their wills were soaring eagles, then the will of one man present was a colossal bird that blotted out the sky, flying high above their heads.
This great bird soared at an infinite height, yet its massive wings still cast a vast shadow that completely enveloped them.
They were merely eagles trying to fly a bit higher. That will, however, sought to shatter the bounds of Earth, to achieve transcendence over everything, and to soar through the boundless cosmos—a Divine Bird.
Compared to that will, they were as weak and pitiful as ants.
Their initial agitation was instantly replaced by an unspeakable despair, their bodies freezing on the spot.
Then, the next moment, the vision vanished, and they snapped out of their stunned state.
Zhou Yuanjue had retracted his will.
"To use a certain will and philosophy as a foundation, to use a spiritual flame to link everyone's minds, and then to leverage that connection to suppress them all with your own formidable will... Truly incredible," Ding Jiutong said, his eyes filled with amazement.
"With twenty people, their will is too scattered. The effect on someone like me would actually be quite small. If the group were three or four times smaller, it might be enough to achieve a stun. Against Martial Artists who have comprehended Holy and Bright, two or three at once is probably the limit. If they were all Advanced Decisive Fist Masters, the number he could stun should reach ten. And if it were just ordinary Boxers or even regular people... I think stunning twenty-five to thirty of them would be no problem..."
Wu Tianhe said softly, a trace of disbelief in his eyes.
He hadn't expected Zhou Yuanjue's strength to reach such a level so soon after the Southern Fighting Tournament began.
Back at the start, he could only use his Heart's Desire Bursting Out a handful of times.
"I have to ask, how long can you sustain this state?" Wu Tianhe asked tentatively.
"Hmm, the Spirit consumption of this state is immense. I can probably only sustain it for fifteen to twenty seconds, at most," Zhou Yuanjue answered after a moment's thought.
'Fifteen seconds? Then even if the enemy is holding heavy weapons...'
Hearing this, Wu Tianhe and Ding Jiutong exchanged a look. 'Fifteen seconds...'
'For a top-tier Martial Artist, if the targets are packed together, killing several dozen ordinary people in fifteen seconds shouldn't be difficult, right?'
'In other words, if his opponents were ordinary people with no willpower training, even if they were armed with heavy weapons and in formation, he could likely annihilate all of them in a direct confrontation, as long as they were within his range and packed closely enough.'
'That kind of terrifying power...'
'Though his body was still human, his mind was beginning to exert an overwhelming pressure on ordinary people.'
"It's not that exaggerated. At most, it just affects their will to fight. Achieving a complete stun, like an Immobilization Skill, isn't so easy. I estimate that if they're armed with heavy weapons, I could face maybe a dozen to twenty people head-on to completely stun them. Any more than that would be very troublesome. Plus, the distance has to be close. Beyond twenty meters, my only option is to run. After all, my body can't withstand a single direct hit from a gun."
Zhou Yuanjue shook his head.
'Just face a dozen or twenty people armed with heavy weapons...'
Wu Tianhe's mouth fell open.
'Listen to him! Is that something a human should be able to say?'
