Martial Conquest of the Nine Desolates-Chapter 11 - 010: Suppressing You With One Hand

On the platform.

"Shi Bo, just give up, you can't beat me." Xiao Teng, with his hands clasped behind his back, gazed down at Shi Bo with a condescending look.

Half-step Postnatal is a transitional realm from Body Refining Realm to Postnatal Realm. Although Xiao Teng has not yet developed True Qi in his body, he possesses a True Qi Seed, which provides him with power far surpassing that of the Body Refining Realm.

He can now look down upon all his peers in the town. Today, he is the most dazzling genius; the glory belongs to him, and so does the beauty.

"Give up?" Shi Bo, with his wild and unkempt hair, shook his head, his voice deep, "It's not my style to admit defeat without a fight!"

"I want to see just how big the gap between you and me is!" Battle intent surged from Shi Bo, his figure violently rising as he unleashed a set of hand techniques flowing smoothly like water.

"Stone Breaking Palm!"

As Shi Bo struck with his palms, successive waves of palm wind tightly sealed off the area towards Xiao Teng, each carrying the power to split boulders.

"Hmph, considering your talent, I intended to let you step down with dignity. Since you're stubborn, don't blame me then." Xiao Teng snorted coldly, stepping through the palm winds with an ease as if strolling in a courtyard, suddenly pushing forward with both palms.

Boom!

A thunderous explosion of fierce energy broke through, shattering Shi Bo's palm winds and continuing on to strike Shi Bo himself.

Pfft!

Shi Bo spurted out a mouthful of fresh blood, his body lifted off the ground and smashed onto the area below the platform, unable to rise for a long while.

"Xiao Teng!" Shi Zhan, the village chief of the Shi Family Village, suddenly stood up, his wine cup crushed to pieces, "This is a marriage selection contest. Inflicting injuries is forbidden. Don't you know the rules!"

Shi Bo is the top genius of the Shi Family Village. Any harm to him would be a great loss to the village.

"Xiao Teng, that's too much!" Villagers from the Shi Family Village shouted angrily from below the platform, their emotions highly agitated, almost rushing forward.

Xiao Tianxiong and Wu Shi exchanged a glance, their expressions grave. Xiao Teng's actions were indeed excessive. A marriage selection event was meant to be joyful and yet now had become bloodied.

If every year's marriage contest was like this, the three villages would have been at conflict long ago.

Under the villagers' inspection, fortunately, Shi Bo's injuries weren't too severe and he would recover after some time. Assisted by a villager, Shi Bo, pale-faced, returned to his seat.

On the platform, Xiao Teng showed no signs of shame; rather, a sneer appeared secretly: "Hmph, I, Xiao Teng, am a fifteen-year-old at Half-step Postnatal, not to mention injuring Shi Bo, even if I killed him, the village chief would still protect me."

Xiao Teng held this confidence.

"Everyone, my son was indeed heavy-handed. After the marriage selection, I will personally visit to apologize," Xiao Ba said with a smile as he came forward, calming the agitated emotions of the villagers of Shi Family Village.

Seeing that Shi Bo was not seriously harmed, coupled with Xiao Ba's attitude, the disgruntled murmurs gradually subsided.

Xiao Ba stood up, smiling at Xiao Dashan: "Dashan, we might not need to continue, right? As everyone saw, my son has reached Half-step Postnatal, he's not some useless person. He's qualified to compete with my son."

Xiao Ba spoke, his gaze coldly sweeping across Xiao Yang.

Whish!

Xiao Yang's complexion immediately changed, his body trembling with anger.

His meridians were shattered, and he had become a useless person, something known throughout the town, but the simple-hearted villagers always tried to avoid touching upon Xiao Yang's hidden wounds.

But Xiao Ba, in front of everyone in town, labeled him as a useless person.

"Xiao Ba!" Xiao Ye stepped forward, "Your son relies on Jiao Snake Blood to breakthrough to Half-step Postnatal, do you find it worth boasting about?"

Xiao Ba coldly responded, "He's stronger than you, just go back home with your useless father!"

"Is that so? Then observe carefully." Under everyone's watchful eyes, Xiao Ye mounted the platform, his eyes flashing with sharp brilliance.

"I, Xiao Ye, do not need Jiao Snake Blood to sweep through everyone!" At this moment, Xiao Ye was like an unsheathed longsword, pointing straight to the heavens.

"No!" Xiao Yang, seeing this scene, was terrified.

"He's doomed..." Shi Bo shook his head from his seat, he and Xiao Ye both being at the Peak of Ninth Body Refining Realm, he had lost, and Xiao Ye surely wasn't any better.

"Hehe... Overestimating himself." Wu Mei'er chuckled coldly from among the group of girls.

On the platform, Xiao Teng with his hands clasped behind his back, mocked, "Xiao Ye, I thought you were going to be a shrinking turtle. I didn't expect you to actually have the guts to come up."

"I've disliked you for a long time, today I will personally put an end to this dislike. The number one genius of Xiao Family Village will always be me!" After speaking, Xiao Teng roared, his black hair stirring as if by no wind, his inner True Qi Seed trembling, circulating abundant power.

"Experience what is called despair!" Xiao Teng's expression was ferocious as he advanced towards Xiao Ye, each step he took shook the platform, leaving deep footprints, the sound thunderous.

"Father, watch how your son excels," Xiao Ye murmured softly watching Xiao Teng.

Boom!

Xiao Teng's whole body's aura climbed to its peak, he moved, his speed beyond the Body Refining Realm, like an explosive torrential force pouring out to overwhelm Xiao Ye.

"Stop!" Xiao Tianxiong cried out in shock and anger, but it was too late to stop anything because it all happened too quickly, turning into the fiercest fight between two of the most outstanding juniors of the Xiao Family Village.

"You're right, in Xiao Family Village, there's only one top genius, too bad that person isn't you!" Xiao Ye's black hair wildly dancing, his eyes as brilliant as stars.

"Fierce Tiger Fist!"

Xiao Ye threw a punch, the force on the fist converging and transforming into a fierce tiger head, the wind and clouds changed color, a tiger roar that shook the heavens emanated, as if to break through the Nine-layered Heaven.

Boom!

A robust collision stirred up dust in the sky, at the platform above, two figures separated immediately upon contact, one of them retreating several steps back.

"Xiao Ye isn't blown away!" Looking at the retreating figure, the crowd exclaimed in surprise.

As the dust settled, the retreating figure became clear, and everyone was shocked because that retreating figure belonged to Xiao Teng!

"That is... the Fierce Tiger Fist!" Three village chiefs stood up simultaneously, deep shock written across their aged faces.

The Fierce Tiger Fist is widely spread in the various villages of Green Sun Town. As village chiefs, they were well aware how difficult it was to grasp the essence of the Fierce Tiger Fist.

It was the Fierce Tiger Fist, something that not even the three major village chiefs had been able to comprehend.

"No wonder Xiao Ye managed to repel Xiao Teng," Shi Zhan's eyes lit up, "He truly is a martial arts genius!"

Advancements in Martial Arts Realm could be assisted by elixirs and other means; even a good-for-nothing, when piled up with various resources, could have a decent Martial Arts Realm.

But to attain a profound mastery of combat techniques required relentless hard work and enlightenment, with no shortcuts. The fact that Xiao Ye, at the age of fifteen, had grasped the Fierce Tiger Fist indicated his terrifying talent in combat techniques.

Just with this alone, Xiao Ye's strength was no lesser than Xiao Teng's.

On the stage, Xiao Teng retreated in embarrassment, staring at Xiao Ye in disbelief.

"How is this possible!"

"I have the strength of a Half-step Postnatal, how could I be pushed back by you!" Xiao Teng shook his head frantically, denying everything.

Stepping forward on the platform, Xiao Ye sneered: "Is Half-step Postnatal so strong? Then watch carefully, I, Xiao Ye, do not need the Jiao Snake Blood to suppress you with just one hand!"

Boom!

True Qi burst forth from within Xiao Ye, like a roaring river, his powerful aura soaring skywards, far surpassing Xiao Teng's Half-step Postnatal.

Smack!

Xiao Ye's Qi-circulating palm reached out, striking the stupefied Xiao Teng.

Bang!

Terrifying force bombarded Xiao Teng, causing stars in his eyes, his body was pressed down onto the stage, and several ribs broke.

"Do you see clearly now? I am already in the Postnatal Realm. You, Xiao Teng, can only look up to me!" Xiao Ye's hair wildly flared as he roared and stomped fiercely on the stage.

Crash!

The vast stage trembled and then collapsed with a thunderous crash, dust billowing around.

Xiao Ye's stomp seemed like a heavy strike on everyone's hearts; no one could utter a word.

At this moment, at Green Sun Town's Central Square, over ten thousand villagers had expressions of stupor and shock, their mouths wide open, forgetting to close them, allowing the icy air to cut straight to their lungs.

Boom!

As the shaking stage collapsed, the thunderous noise was like a lightning strike on their bodies, making them shiver.

Postnatal Realm!

And a fifteen-year-old Postnatal Martial Artist at that!

In the long history of several hundred years of Green Sun Town, has there been such a young Postnatal Martial Artist?

No!

In front of Xiao Ye, neither Xiao Teng nor Shi Bo were worth mentioning.

"This... is absolutely a once-in-a-century genius from Xiao Family Village... no, from the whole Green Sun Town!" The villagers of Xiao Family Village trembled with excitement.

Hiss!

As this person spoke, one villager after another woke from their stupor, followed by gasps that echoed in the air above the Central Square.

Whoosh!

The entire Central Square erupted, their fiery gazes fixating on the young figure standing atop the ruins of the stage.

"Wait..." Xiao Yang shook his somewhat muddled head, "How did Ye'er suddenly step into the Postnatal Realm?"

This huge surprise was hard for Xiao Yang to accept, but the True Qi fluctuations emanating from Xiao Ye were undeniably real.

"Old Man Xiao, you better give me a reasonable explanation!" Wu Shi's face was dumbfounded, his anger boiling over as he glared furiously at Xiao Tianxiong, almost wishing to devour him.

It was from Xiao Tianxiong that he had learned about Xiao Teng advancing to the Half-step Postnatal, prompting him to hurriedly have Wu Mei'er abandon Xiao Ye for a marriage proposal to Xiao Teng.

Just the thought of having turned down a fifteen-year-old Postnatal genius, made his heart wrench.

Xiao Tianxiong opened his mouth, but found himself unable to speak a word.

Xiao Ye's performance was too shocking; whether it was the Fierce Tiger Fist or reaching the Postnatal Realm at fifteen, both were unparalleled among his peers in Green Sun Town.

"It won't do. I must have Mei'er offer a marriage proposal to Xiao Ye now. With Mei'er's beauty, I don't believe Xiao Ye could resist," Wu Shi pondered for a moment, then made up his mind.

"Old Man Shi, is this a bit improper?" suddenly, Wu Shi's old face blushed.

After all, he was the village chief of Wu Family Village, a respected elder—this sort of face-losing behavior made him feel somewhat embarrassed.

"Eh? Where's Old Man Shi?" Not getting a response, Wu Shi looked around only to find that Shi Zhan had already disappeared.

Xiao Tianxiong stood there stupefied, pointing in Xiao Ye's direction: "It seems Old Man Shi has taken his granddaughter to find Xiao Ye."

"What!" Wu Shi's eyes widened, "That old coot, his granddaughter is only thirteen years old; does he expect Xiao Ye to marry his thirteen-year-old granddaughter?"

In Green Sun Town, a thirteen-year-old girl is not of marital age yet.

"No way! That old sly fox is going too far; I must stop him. Xiao Ye is going to be my granddaughter's husband!" Saying this, Wu Shi, like a whirlwind, rushed out, leaving Xiao Tianxiong twitching at the corner of his mouth.

Was a grand battle for a grandson-in-law unfolding?
