Chapter 1274: Chapter 1245: Li Weisi’s Progress
In Li Weisi’s class, although everyone’s strength does not have a specific ranking, most people still have a clear definition of their own strength.
And Lin Lang, in the class, is absolutely the strongest.
Although he is not much stronger than others, everyone knows that Lin Lang’s strength should be considered the strongest in the class.
Not because his cultivation is higher than others, but because compared to others, Lin Lang has more combat experience.
Unlike most people in the class, Lin Lang is not a native of Black Stone City.
Lin Lang fled from other places to Black Stone City.
The place where Lin Lang was born was just a small village.
However, because the village is located next to a forest full of demon beasts, Lin Lang can be said to have experienced fighting beasts and even demon beasts from a young age.
Although most of the time he was with adults, there is no doubt that, in terms of combat experience alone, he is far stronger than the others, and his ferocity in battle far exceeds that of others.
And this is the key to why Lin Lang’s strength is greater than others.
The strength of both is similar. In any case, the person with more combat experience has a slightly better chance of winning.
The reason Li Chen was able to see at a glance that Lin Lang was the strongest in the class was because he saw a wildness in Lin Lang.
A wildness the same as he once had.
This is the wildness only those who have truly experienced slaughter possess.
“It seems it should be interesting.” Leaning to the side, Li Chen calmly watched the two youths, a peculiar smile on his face.
He too has slowly walked up from being the lowest-level Martial Artist.
And what supported him through the most difficult phase of weak strength was the rich combat experience accumulated as an ordinary person.
Li Chen is very clear: as a Martial Artist, although his entry-level time was relatively late, he did not waste the previous ten years.
The experience accumulated while being an ordinary person still proves to be very useful to him now.
A person, even a Martial Artist, cannot have a mind full solely of power. Otherwise, he will become a slave to power.
And he, what he wants to be is the master of power.
“Bang!”
With the first sound of impact, Li Weisi and Lin Lang clashed.
Both have an intermediate level of cultivation in the Yellow Rank. Logically speaking, Lin Lang, with his rich combat experience, indeed doesn’t have to spend much effort to easily defeat Li Weisi, who has only cultivation and lacks in combat experience.
Such things have happened before.
But this time, everyone soon discovered that the battle between the two surprised them.
Except for a few who had once gone into the forest with Li Weisi for training, everyone watching Lin Lang and Li Weisi fight had strange expressions.
Even the student who previously argued against Li Chen had a somewhat blank look, unable to say anything as he watched them.
Turns out, Li Weisi wasn’t as vulnerable as they thought; instead, surprisingly, at the start of the battle, he initiated an aggressive attack, using a fierce assault that forced Lin Lang to defend without any chance to retaliate.
At a glance, Li Weisi was in the dominant position.
“Seems this kid also has a fire in him.” Li Chen watched Li Weisi’s wild demeanor, shaking his head with a smile.
But Li Chen could understand Li Weisi’s youthful mindset.
Everyone has a dream to stand out, and Li Weisi is no exception; only his desire was suppressed due to his abilities.
And upon gaining power, this suppression was bound to be released.
“Just that, this kid is going to have a tough time.” Li Chen softly mused to himself.
Li Weisi’s skills have indeed soared compared to before, although his strength is still at the intermediate level of the Yellow Rank; his combat power has strengthened more than a bit, leaving the so-called strongest in class, Lin Lang, without a chance to fight back.
However, what matters in battle is never the process.
No matter how brilliant it is, the result is most important.
Lin Lang continued defending passively, he could feel that Li Weisi had indeed grown much stronger. So, during his defense, he kept observing Li Weisi, searching for weaknesses.
Though finding those weaknesses might be tough, given their similar cultivation levels and the uncomfortable position of being pressed in combat, Lin Lang knew that as long as he found a flaw…
“Bang!”
A whip-like kick suddenly struck Li Weisi, instantly sending him flying from Lin Lang’s leg.
“I can injure the enemy in one strike.” Lin Lang murmured to himself calmly.
Li Chen shrugged helplessly, looking at Li Weisi, “Seems I overestimated you, huh?”
Hearing Li Chen’s words, Li Weisi’s face flushed a little, then he looked at Lin Lang again, “Teacher, please wait, this sparring isn’t over yet!”
Touching his abdomen, Li Weisi felt a stinging pain.
But at that moment, how could he lose face in front of Li Chen?
His combat skills were taught hand-in-hand by Li Chen in the forest those past days, surrendering like that would disgrace not just his face, but his companions’ and Li Chen’s as well.
Taking a deep breath, Li Weisi calmed himself down, looked at Lin Lang not far away: “Come on, let’s continue!”
“Alright!” Lin Lang looked at Li Weisi with some surprise, nodded, and then approached Li Weisi again.
Unlike Li Weisi, Lin Lang did not launch attacks recklessly, pursuing effectiveness with one strike. This is a hunter’s habit.
After calming down, Li Weisi began to respond steadily to each of Lin Lang’s attacks, not making rash moves anymore.
“Bang!”
Catching an opportunity, Lin Lang blocked one of Li Weisi’s attacks with a parry and punched towards Li Weisi’s chest.
Meanwhile, Li Weisi raised his leg high, kicking towards Lin Lang’s neck.
Both flew out simultaneously and then fell heavily onto the ground.
“Amazing!”
“How is it, the result?”
“Who won? Both fell, could it be a draw?”
“When did Li Weisi become so strong, able to draw with Lin Lang!”
At this point, Li Chen slowly walked out while using a cane.
Looking at the group of students in front of him, a gratified smile appeared on his face.
“It isn’t a draw, Li Weisi won.”
Saying that, Li Chen pointed to Lin Lang lying not far away, who had already passed out.
While Li Weisi was struggling but slowly and firmly getting up from the ground.
The students instantly shut their mouths; at this moment, they really had nothing to say.
