Becoming a Saint Starts with Copying Martial Arts

Chapter 137 Easy Victory

Chapter 138 Easy Victory

Wei Dong didn't care at all: "Just you wait and see, Brother Chen will definitely win."

Of the group, only he had personally witnessed Lin Qing's attack. What were True Qi Realm warriors compared to Lin Qing? Anyone who could last three rounds against Lin Qing was considered a top-tier expert.

None of the three, including Li Ping, responded, but they all wondered if Wei Dong was being too arrogant.

As they were talking, Qiu Changming loudly announced the list of contestants.

"First match: Chen Lan versus Lei Tong!"

"The second match: Lin Qing versus Wu Xun!"

"The third battle is a showdown between the victors, and the ultimate winner will become the head of the Jingming Division."

"The duel begins!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lei Tong and Chen Lan almost simultaneously used their lightness skills to leap onto the arena.

"Brother Lei, please forgive me, go easy on him!" Chen Lan chuckled. He was only in his thirties, while Lei Tong was over fifty. The two knew each other in private.

Lei Tong said in a deep voice, "Little Chen, I advise you to surrender. You have no chance."

"That won't do. With so many people watching, it would be too embarrassing for me to admit defeat right away. I wouldn't be able to face anyone in the Soul Suppression Division anymore. Besides, Brother Lei, even though you're at the peak of the True Qi Realm, don't be too confident. Martial arts realm doesn't necessarily mean combat strength. Who knows who will win or lose? My lightness skill has improved a lot recently," Chen Lan said with a grin.

"You'll find out why I said that in a moment," Lei Tong said in a deep voice.

"The duel begins!"

From afar, Qiu Changming shouted loudly, and Chen Lan took the lead, using his lightness skill to step out in an arc and approach Lei Tong at an extremely fast speed. He did not choose the common longsword, but instead chose a pair of short swords, which were more suitable for close combat.

His fighting style is more like that of an assassin than a swordsman. He uses his lightness skill to move around and change positions repeatedly, waiting for the enemy to show a weakness before striking with lightning speed and winning with a single blow.

However, Lei Tong did not react at all, and just watched him rush towards him.

Chen Lan had a vague feeling that something was wrong. When the distance between the two closed rapidly to less than twenty steps, a light blue aura suddenly emerged around Lei Tong and quickly spread out, covering a radius of twenty steps around him.

Chen Lan was shocked and tried to retreat, but it was too late. He felt countless electric currents running through his body, which paralyzed him and greatly reduced his movement speed. He couldn't even perform some simple movements.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lei Tong threw a punch, and Chen Lan shouted, "I surrender!"

"stop!"

Qiu Changming shouted, stopping the fight between the two. Lei Tong did not go for the kill; his fist hovered in the air before quickly retracting.

Chen Lan was covered in sweat: "Brother Lei, you're really something! You've already entered the True Yuan Realm, why didn't you say so earlier? If you had said so earlier, I would have admitted defeat immediately. What's the point of competing like this? The three of us combined are no match for you."

"I told you to admit defeat long ago," Lei Tong laughed.

"Never mind, the result is the same anyway, time to eat beef." Chen Lan, with her carefree nature, waved her hand and jumped off the stage, not taking the matter to heart at all.

Below the platform, everyone who saw this scene believed that the outcome of the competition was no longer in doubt.

There is a huge gap in strength between martial artists in the True Essence Realm and True Gang Realm, making it impossible for them to fight each other. Just like just now, as soon as the Qi Domain was released, Chen Lan was immediately suppressed and could not even escape.

"It seems that the position of Chief of the Underworld Bureau is already in Lei Cha Tou's hands," Li Ping said.

"It's alright, Lin Qing is still young, there will be other opportunities in the future," Ma Ziye said with a smile.

"That's hard to say, I think Brother Lin still has a chance," Wei Dong suddenly said.

"Wei Dong, how can you trust Lin Qing so much? Lei Cha Tou is a True Yuan Realm martial artist." Ma Ziye said in surprise.

"Brother Lin is no ordinary person, you guys keep watching," Wei Dong said mysteriously.

At this moment, Lin Qing and his companion had already stepped onto the arena. Wu Xun was carrying a thick demon-subduing staff. Everyone thought it was going to be a fierce battle, but unexpectedly, Wu Xun came up and bowed.

"Brother Lin, how about this, you admit defeat. You've only just entered the True Qi realm, you haven't accumulated enough experience, and your combat experience is also lacking. But I'm different. I've been in the True Qi realm for seven years. It wouldn't be honorable for me to win against you. Actually, it's all the same. No matter who wins or loses this match, the position of Master of the Division will belong to Old Lei. You can't compete with him."

Lin Qing had initially thought Wu Xun was a quiet and unsociable person, but his opinion of him had changed drastically. Wu Xun seemed to be quite different from his appearance; he was more lively inside than he seemed.

"Lord Wu, if you're too lazy to compete, you should just admit defeat. I won't admit defeat!" Lin Qing said with a smile.

"Hey, you're pretty stubborn, kid. You don't actually think you can beat me, do you?" Wu Xun raised an eyebrow.

"Whether we win or not, we'll only know after we fight," Lin Qing said with a smile.

"Alright, then I won't hold back." Wu Xun got excited too. He felt he had been underestimated and was determined to teach Lin Qing a lesson later.

"The duel begins!"

As soon as Qiu Changming finished speaking, Wu Xun charged over with his staff, which was wrapped in an earthy yellow aura, giving it a heavy, towering feel.

A golden aura rose from Lin Qingze's body; it was the aura of the Tathagata.

Wu Xun moved extremely fast, rushing forward in an instant and smashing down on the head with a club.

Lin Qing reached out and grabbed the long stick firmly in his palm.

When Wu Xun saw Lin Qing catch the stick with his bare hands, he was about to say that Lin Qing was too arrogant and would suffer a great loss. But when the stick actually came down, Lin Qing didn't budge. His hands were like iron clamps, gripping the stick tightly. He wanted to pull away, but he couldn't do it at all.

"What incredible strength!"

Wu Xun was startled and immediately released his grip, discarding the wooden stick, and switched to attacking with his fists.

Lin Qing also threw a punch at the same time. The two of them used the exact same fist techniques and moves, which were the starting stances of the Tathagata Fist Sutra.

In an instant, their fists collided. Wu Xun suddenly felt an overwhelming force surging from Lin Qing's fist, causing him to lose control and be violently thrown backward, losing his balance.

Lin Qing pressed close and struck Wu Xun in the chest with a palm. Wu Xun groaned and was suddenly sent flying, falling to the ground in an arc.

After three moves, the outcome was already decided. Lin Qing didn't even use his full strength because he was worried that if he went all out, he would harm Wu Xun's life.

After Wu Xun fell to the ground, he was in a daze. He never expected that he would be defeated so quickly.

"Lin Qingsheng!"

"The final match will begin in fifteen minutes!" Qiu Changming's voice rang out in the square at just the right moment.

Lin Qing leaped and landed on the stage, just as Wu Xun stood up, still looking dazed.

Seeing this, Lin Qing smiled and cupped his hands, saying, "Officer Wu, you won by luck, don't take it to heart."

"What terrifying power! Even if we fought ten more times, I would still lose. This is not a coincidence, but because your physical strength far surpasses mine. Impressive!" Wu Xun came back to his senses, his expression complicated.

Not far away, Lei Tong saw this scene and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Wu Xun was a martial artist at the peak of the True Qi Realm. If he hadn't recently entered the True Yuan Realm, the difference in strength between the two would actually be very small.

Lin Qing's easy victory over Wu Xun was truly unexpected. He felt a chill of fear when he thought about it. If he hadn't made a breakthrough, he might have been easily defeated when he went on stage later.

"Indeed, the younger generation is formidable. However, I have already entered the True Essence realm, and the position of Chief of the Department will surely be mine." Lei Tong was extremely confident.
