Chapter 19: Trampled Beneath My Feet

Translator: _Dark_Angel_ Editor: Kurisu

Ling Han was now completely covered in blood. His temporary increase in power to the seventh layer of Body Refining Tier was obtained through sustaining serious injuries. He was now like an injured lone wolf—the more he was injured, the more he refused to surrender.

At first, it was as if the crowd was there just to watch a free show. But when they saw Ling Han being repeatedly injured yet continue to retaliate, their feelings, for some reason, were affected by his performance.

Even if Ling Han was a piece of trash, he was a piece of trash that deserved their respect!

What kind of person could have such determination and unyielding will?

To be unyielding even as his blood spilled, to be dauntless facing any and all setbacks!

Before they knew it, everyone's thoughts started to lean towards Ling Han, secretly hoping that he would emerge victorious.

In the world of martial artists, the weak did not deserve to be pitied, but an unyielding warrior would be able to gain respect. Ling Han used his blood and strong will to obtain something that his predecessor had longed for the most...

Respect!

This was also the reason why Ling Han had stubbornly decided to fight this battle, and even chosen such a "stupid" method, a head-on clash.

Of course, only he was aware that his current condition was not as horrible as everyone was thinking—Indestructible Heaven Scroll was circulating within his body and continuously healing his injuries, so they looked much worse than they in fact were.

However, even if they already somewhat recovered by now, the injuries he suffered were in no way faked. He was in agonizing pain, as if a fire was slowly burning up his spirit, but it was also this pain that allowed him to erupt with power that far exceeded his actual cultivation level.

He had to continuously take Return Origin Pills, battle and keep up the continuous circulation of Indestructible Heaven Scroll. All this led to too large a depletion of his Origin Power.

Ling Han was repeatedly forced to retreat, but he would keep on charging back into battle. As his fresh blood splattered, his indomitable willpower had affected a large part of the surrounding crowd. Some of the girls had even started shedding tears, asking Ling Han to stop fighting.

"Why won't you fall!" The longer Cheng Xiang fought, the more flustered he became. How could Ling Han be so determined? Why was it that, no matter how much he was wounded, he refused to fall...? This fight put a great pressure on Cheng Xiang. The power of the seventh layer of Body Refining Tier was enough to be a threat to him, and with the repeated confrontations between them, his internal organs were also boiling over, causing him extreme discomfort.

He roared and attacked with both his fists. He had finally used a martial art skill, wanting to take down Ling Han as fast as possible!

It was one of Cheng Clan's special skills—Expert Armed Fist.

Double peaks piercing the ear! [1]

A martial artist that uses martial art skills and a martial artist that does not are at two completely different levels of power. Just like cultivation techniques, martial arts skills could also be categorized into Heaven, Earth, Black and Yellow Grades respectively. A good Yellow Grade martial arts skill can roughly double the user's power.

Every major grade was further divided into three minor levels—high, medium, and low. For example, a Yellow Grade low level martial art skill would increase the user's power by around thirty percent, a medium level one would be able to raise the user's power by around forty to sixty percent, while a high level skill would increase the user's power around seventy to one hundred percent.
