World’s Best Martial Artist-Chapter 347 - Don’t Make The Fight Seem So Effortless

In the afternoon.

MCMAU versus SNMAU.

As for the other group, ESNNU versus DNMAU… no one was interested.

These two weaklings. Let them entertain themselves.

…

At the gym.

Fang Ping had arrived a long time ago. Qin Fengqing looked eager, saying, “Fang Ping, how about you let me try it? Liu Shijie is too arrogant lately…”

Fang Ping darted him a look, looking slightly downcast. Qin Fengqing had become smarter recently.

Initially, he thought he could trick him into bashing up ESNNU’s Hu Yong last time.

Unexpectedly, Hu Yong still looked very much alive and active right now. It was obvious Qin Fengqing did not lay a finger on him.

“Forget it. It seems like this fellow has really become smart now.”

Fang Ping murmured in his heart, but did not mind it too much. If he did not go, so be it.

However, after thinking about it, Fang Ping said suddenly, “Lend me your saber for a while.”

Qin Fengqing looked wary all of a sudden. “Don’t you have yours?”

“My saber can’t be employed for no reason. I forgot to bring my yanyuedao this time. Just lend me yours first.”

“Never!”

“I don’t even want it!”

Fang Ping was completely speechless. ‘Your trashy saber is only a B-class. Do you think I would want it?’

Qin Fengqing was very reluctant. However, out of the ones at the scene, he alone was using a saber.

Chen Wenlong and Xie Lei both used punches, Zhang Yu used a sword. Even if the others used a saber, it would typically be only a C-class one with average quality. His saber alone was of the highest quality.

Staring at Fang Ping’s saber and taking a good look at it, Qin Fengqing mulled it over and said, “I’ll hold your saber here with me for now then…”

Fang Ping was speechless. “Is that even necessary?”

“Absolutely necessary!”

“Forget it. I don’t want to borrow it anymore.”

Fang Ping rolled his eyes, walking to another side, promptly taking Liang Fenghua’s saber, grinning. “If I break it, my saber will be yours.”

Liang Fenghua chuckled lightly, saying, “There’s no need for that. I’m planning to change it anyway. But, a C-class alloy saber, you…”

“It’s fine. C-class is just nice.”

Fang Ping weighed the changdao in his hands, looking at Qin Fengqing, saying, “Initially, I was still thinking that if I damage it a little, then I’ll give you my yanyuedao. That little toy, even if it has been chipped, it’s still worth a lot of money.

“It’s a pity that you didn’t appreciate an opportunity like this.”

Qin Fengqing turned a deaf ear. ‘Are you treating me a fool? Liang Fenghua and you share the same instructor. It may still be possible for you to be generous toward him. Will you be equally generous toward me, Qin Fengqing?’

…

It was bustling with noise over here at MCMAU.

On the other side at Sino Nation Martial Arts University, a middle-aged Rank-6 powerhouse took a peek at Fang Ping and the rest and whispered, “Watch out for his Mentality intimidation. Fang Ping has only broken through not long ago. No matter how hard he cultivates his Combat Techniques, he still won’t be able to make a spurt of progress.

“The main thing is still his strong Mentality. But for you, you can’t expel Mentality. Although Rank-4 martial artists are gathering Mentality as well, once interfered with, it will still affect your display of ability.

“As long as you can defeat Fang Ping, even if SNMAU loses big time, we will still shoot to fame.

“Today, the two elite universities have not lost in any matches yet.”

For now, CCMAU and MCMAU, including FMS, had not shown any traces of being defeated. Not even once.

“I know. Don’t worry, instructor. I’ve prepared myself for his strong Mentality!”

Liu Shijie grumbled, “He’s not a Grandmaster, after all. A same-rank trying to carry out interference against me won’t be that easy.”

“It’s good that you’re prepared. Give it your best shot.”

“Definitely!”

Liu Shijie took a deep breath, wielded his saber and walked forward.

…

“The second battle between Peak Rank-4 martial artists is about to begin! SNMAU President Liu Shijie, ranking far ahead in the Rank-4 ranking list. That’s further in front of MCMAU Chen Wenlong. Until today, MCMAU President Fang has yet to qualify for the ranking list…”

He had not finished his sentence when Fang Ping took a leap, landing on the arena directly. He smiled. “Brother Liu, come into the arena!”

The commentator was slightly speechless. ‘It’s the truth that you didn’t make it to the list. I’m only speaking the truth. Why are you in such a hurry to get started.’

Liu Shijie wasted no time either. His feet moved, leaping into the arena.

When he had entered the arena, Fang Ping no longer looked like he was in a hurry.

Using the alloy saber in his hand, he tapped the ground a few times…

His action had the CCMAU powerhouse at the grandstand turning hostile instantly!

However, in no time, someone humphed softly, “If he’s so capable, go ahead then!”

‘A-class alloy-covered arena. I would like to see you smash it!’

A B-class alloy was already extremely tough. It was no easy feat even for a Rank-6 powerhouse to damage a B-class alloy weapon.

Under normal circumstances, A-class weapons were used by Peak Rank-6 powerhouses.

When Peak Rank-6 powerhouses fought against each other, it would not be so easy to damage each other’s weapons.

When this man had just finished his sentence, Huang Jing chuckled. “Everyone, you worry too much. If this idea has crossed Fang Ping’s mind, he would’ve destroyed it a few matches ago.”

“He didn’t fight the last few rounds, did he?”

A CCMAU Grandmaster answered faintly. Chen Wenlong fought the last two rounds, hence Fang Ping did not really get any chance.

…

“They are really willing to put all that money in, don’t they?”

Fang Ping sighed. It was really an A-class one. He did not get to take a closer look earlier. Now that he was looking at it closely, it was no wonder there was not a single dent on the arena after so many matches earlier.

“I’ll forget about it this time.”

An A-class-built alloy arena. Fang Ping would never be able to smash it.

However… once he employed his Chaos-vanquishing Saber, smashing pieces of it would be no problem at all. There was still a difference between the alloy on the arena and the type used to manufacture weapons.

The alloy on the arena did not go through multiple forgings, its density and toughness were not up to par.

In front of him, Liu Shijie seemed to read his mind. He laughed. “Fang Ping, are you counting on defeating me with alloy fragments alone?”

What a joke!

Fang Ping was testing the alloy toughness. Was he hoping to repeat the same thing he did last time?

He was not Kong Yuanrong, though. Kong Yuanrong might not even be able to take one attack from him.

Fang Ping chuckled. “You guessed it, brother Liu.”

After saying that, Fang Ping took a look offstage, saying in a low voice, “I pity the spectators who are watching the match this time.”

Liu Shijie did not understand why.

Fang Ping did not explain either.

If the fight ended in the blink of an eye, and they could not even see a thing after spending 1000 bucks, was that not pitiful?

After their quick exchange, the referee employed the Midair Step toward them, announcing, “Let the match begin!”

As soon as he said those words, Liu Shijie’s arms swelled up immediately!

Amidst crimson colors, a faint golden light was visible.

Whereas the changdao in his hand was instantly overflowing with rich Vitality.

As soon as the competition started, Liu Shijie was already prepared to employ the ultimate move. When fighting against Fang Ping, everyone was unanimous in thinking that it would be unwise to wear him down by attrition. Employing the ultimate move as soon as they entered the arena to defeat him quickly was the only way to reduce Fang Ping’s dominance.

“Hack!”

Liu Shijie roared, his actions moved in unison, completing almost instantly.

In the spectators’ eyes, as soon as the referee gave the command, Liu Shijie’s changdao unleashed a blinding blood-tinted light, slashing down at the top of Fang Ping’s head!

“Didn’t I mention about not letting anyone steal the limelight!”

Fang Ping’s voice seemed to appear from the side of Liu Shijie’s ear.

Something flashed across Liu Shijie’s eyes. Without a second thought, he leaped into the air to escape!

“Don’t run!”

Fang Ping chuckled. Wielding the C-class changdao with both hands, his voice sounded otherworldly, the saber body unleashing a rich Vitality outburst!

A chilling roar resounded. Fang Ping’s figure appeared on his opponent’s right-hand side. His changdao slit the air and caused an explosion, the booming sound was like a clap of thunder.

Boom!

The spectators could not see a thing. Liu Shijie’s pupils contracted slightly, pulling out his saber to return the attack immediately!

Both sabers collided; sparks flew in every direction.

Liu Shijie did not take long to sense the pressure. Fang Ping’s Vitality Force was beyond sufficient!

“If Old Wang is 97, I’m 98!”

No one had any idea who Fang Ping was talking to. Liu Shijie had just blocked the first attack. The changdao in Fang Ping’s hand seemed stagnant, yet Liu Shijie could already sense pressure for the second time!

If that was not enough, ceaseless tremors from the hacking kept coming, causing Liu Shijie to fall repeatedly!

“Less than 2500cal Vitality. This can’t do. Even your physique is weak.”

Once again, Liu Shijie heard Fang Ping’s laughter in his ears.

“Defeating you with alloy fragments is enough!”

In the next moment, the changdao in Fang Ping’s hands was shattered to pieces, countless fragments shooting toward Liu Shijie.

Liu Shijie’s expression paled as he waved his saber to block.

Before he could raise his saber, Fang Ping clenched his fist, his Vajra Punch hammering violently!

Boom, boom, boom!

Liu Shijie had no idea how many punches he had taken. It was as if Fang Ping would never be tired out, like there was no end to his Vitality. He continuously hammered Liu Shijie to the extent where he was constantly stepping back.

He tried many times to escape Fang Ping’s range of attack, but before he could do it, Fang Ping started unleashing Mentality in an outburst, suppressing him constantly.

At this moment, Fang Ping took the form of a mad devil.

Laying his punches tirelessly, his speed was inhuman. Each punch unleashed an extremely powerful Vitality Force.

Liu Shijie was blocking all he could, even looking for an opening to return the attack.

However, before he could even employ his moves, they were interrupted and cut off by Fang Ping’s quick fists.

“Invincible Punch!”

After Fang Ping let out a mad roar this time, a crimson fist that was formed entirely of condensed Vitality Force emerged out of nowhere. The crimson fist pierced through space, appearing in front of Liu Shijie’s chest in the blink of an eye.

Boom!

An explosive crack was heard. Liu Shijie’s chest was blasted and a dent the size of a bowl was left behind.

The next moment, countless alloy fragments shot toward him simultaneously, piercing all over Liu Shijie’s body, forming innumerable penetrating injuries.

Though it sounded action-packed, the fight happened very quickly.

Starting from Fang Ping crushing the weapon up until Fang Ping laying a fist that blew up the other party’s chest. In such a short window, the fragments had just pierced the other party when Fang Ping had already finished laying hundreds of punches.

The spectators could only see Fang Ping and Liu Shijie talking to each other, and the competition began. Then, Liu Shijie unleashed an outburst suddenly. After that, both of them took the fight midair…

In the end, Liu Shijie was bathed in blood, his clothes torn and tattered. Blood was even flowing ceaselessly from his chest as he crashed down on the arena.

Whereas at this moment, Fang Ping landed, looking relaxed. Other than losing the saber, it was like nothing had ever happened.

“You’re too humble.”

Blood was still spurting out of Liu Shijie’s mouth. Standing up after much struggle, he placed his hand on his chest, and panted, “Master Lu’s Invincible Punch?”

Fang Ping laughed but made no reply.

…

Outside the arena.

SNMAU’s vice-chancellor frowned slightly, feeling somewhat embarrassed. You believed what the guy said?

Rank-6’s commentator’s eyesight was fairly sharp. At this moment, she had already started giving explanations.

“Everyone says that Fang Ping’s Combat Technique cultivation is his weakness, but I’d say otherwise. He has already attained Vitality condensation for his Maha Punch to the extent where he can expel Qi and strength. At first, he employed Vajra Punch to unleash outbursts, so Liu Shijie was forced into defense. When Fang Ping has broken through his guard, rendering him immobile, he unleashed Maha Punch outbursts, injuring Liu Shijie critically in one punch…”

“I think it’s not because of how refined Fang Ping’s Combat Techniques cultivation is. Did you notice? His Maha Punch did not critically injure Liu Shijie’s internal organs. That means that his penetrating force is still not sufficient. The main reason why Liu Shijie is critically injured is because… the Vitality Force is extremely powerful!

“Fang Ping… he condensed a Vitality ball that’s made up entirely of Vitality Force, blowing the other party up!”

The female commentator found it hard to continue with the explanation.

That was right, Fang Ping’s Combat Techniques were really not that special, for other people at least. However, this fellow adopted a different approach. He did not continue working on his Combat Techniques the hard way. Somehow, he copied the Combat Techniques method of expelling condensed Vitality, condensing rich Vitality Force into a Vitality ball and blasting it directly at Liu Shijie.

What did this represent?

Fireball Technique?

No, Vitality Ball Technique!

Exactly how much Vitality Force had been condensed in the crimson fist earlier?

1000cal?

2000cal?

Whatever it was, it was a potent one!

Otherwise, Liu Shijie who had attained a robust physique from the cultivating Bodybuilding Techniques would not be blown up to the extent of sustaining an injury as big as a hole.

Middle-ranked martial artists’ fatal points were their internal organs and skull. Fang Ping, however, did not aim for these weaknesses. Instead, he destroyed his flesh straightaway.

Both commentators had no idea how to put it into words. Was Fang Ping strong?

Very strong!

Otherwise, he would not have defeated Liu Shijie that quickly.

However, he was so strong in a way… that made some people unhappy. Martial artists at least, would not be too happy about it. To put it in another way, perhaps jealous would fit the description.

What did you treat the Vitality Force as, using it like that?

For Rank-4 martial artists, a typical Peak martial artist had 2000cal Vitality. Using it to make a Vitality ball for the fun of it might end up fully depleting a Rank-4 martial artist’s Vitality.

…

Fang Ping cared nothing for anyone’s opinion.

It was only Vitality. Did it really matter?

1000cal was only a million Wealth.

Although destroying Liu Shijie was a bit wasteful, consuming nearly 3000cal Vitality from start to finish… Who would give a d*mn about 3 million Wealth?

At this moment, Fang Ping was rich and overbearing.

Using the fastest speed to destroy Liu Shijie, spending 3 million was worth every penny.

If he fought a highly powerful powerhouse on the Rank-4 ranking list without being a little wasteful or using his own saber, the fight might have dragged on for a long time. Would that not portray him as being too weak then?

Fang Ping stood in the arena, looking composed and at ease, smiling. “Let’s continue.”

The referee heard what he said, beckoning SNMAU to send the next person up.

…

Offstage.

Wang Jinyang frowned slightly and said after a while, “So unruly with all the Vitality that he has!”

He was not rich, but Fang Ping did have damn lots of Vitality Force!

Had anyone seen any Rank-4 martial artists fighting each other like this?

Fang Ping might as well have started a new genre!

Of course, to Fang Ping, having Vitality and money was the same thing.

Wang Jinyang was slightly helpless and even a little jealous. ‘Even with my bone marrow anomaly, I still can’t replenish Vitality as quickly as you. How did you do it, kid?’

Actually, this battle did not accurately portray Fang Ping’s ability.

All they knew was that Fang Ping had an astronomical amount of Vitality Force… that was the only thing that crossed their minds!

Another person who had the same thought as Wang Jinyang was Li Hansong and the rest.

Li Hansong’s face was all tangled up in confusion. ‘What’s the meaning of this?

‘I can’t see what’s going on!’

Han Xu was still unable to see through Peak Rank-4 martial artists. Seeing what had happened, he said, “Fang Ping defeated Liu Shijie so effortlessly. President, if you fight him…”

Li Hansong scratched his head in confusion, saying helplessly, “I don’t know. Let’s just see what happens. If he creates eight to ten Vitality balls to blow me up… I’m not sure if even I can block it!”

This was supposed to be martial arts, yet Fang Ping had employed sorcery that appeared only in novels. Even Li Hansong was rather disheartened.

‘Can’t seem to wrap my head around it. I just can’t!’

…

They were not the only ones who could not figure out what was happening.

The Grandmasters at the grandstand exchanged glances with each other as well. Of course, everyone could understand the reason behind Fang Ping’s Vitality ball.

It was simple. Just expel Vitality with high-ranked Combat Techniques, condensing it into a Vitality ball.

The key was… Fang Ping was a Rank-4 martial artist. Not only did he not cultivate Combat Techniques well, but he was also creating a plaything like this. It just seemed unorthodox.

In addition to that, others had no capability of copying it.

The Grandmasters shook their heads respectively. There was no way to compete with him. What was there to compete?

His Mentality was strong, he had a bone marrow peculiarity, perhaps even his brain had a peculiarity. An anomaly in martial artists like this was rare. This batch’s championship had gathered all 4 of them. This was simply a groundbreaking first.

…

Everyone else could not wrap their heads around it.

Qin Fengqing looked pensive, though. He mumbled, “Vitality ball. Isn’t this the move used to feed Jiao? So, it can be used to bash someone up too?”

Actually, when Fang Ping fed Jiao, he employed a similar technique.

All he did was prevent the Vitality Force from exploding. If it exploded in Jiao’s mouth and injured it, Jiao might just swallow Fang Ping alive.

…

Everyone in the arena’s feelings aside. After Fang Ping defeated Liu Shijie, his fights against the others from SNMAU were mostly just a matter of crushing them in a second.

There were no powerful moves. Mentality intimidation paired with strong Vitality Force and robust physique was more than enough. He was mostly laying a punch each when fighting against these martial artists with ranks lower than Peak Rank-4. None of them had the chance to even escape.

In less than two minutes, Fang Ping ended the fight.

Altogether 3800cal Vitality was consumed in this fight. His recovery speed was not slow though. In reality, he did not really spend much Wealth as his Vitality was extremely high from the start.

When he walked down the arena, Fang Ping took a glance at Yao Chengjun. ‘You’re next!’

Yao Chengjun wore a bone-chilling expression, unsure whether he was swearing madly inside.

For him, the way Fang Ping fought Liu Shijie was shameless… The key takeaway was, he had the capital to be shameless. There was no way anyone could deny that.
