Guding stepped out of the ruins step by step. Any strong person could tell from the sounds of his steps that Guding hadn't suffered any damage from the previous attack. The tenfold repulsion augmentation enhanced Guding's defensive power by another tenfold, allowing him to withstand his opponent's blow head-on.
Seeing Guding emerge unscathed, Ross was a bit puzzled. He clearly remembered that his previous strike had not been resisted by Guding at all and had landed directly on Guding's chest. Logically speaking, even a peak strongman of the Thirteenth Order Gene Body would have their sternum completely shattered from such a strike. Even if they didn't die, it would be difficult for them to get back up. But Guding's current appearance suggested that the strike hadn't landed on him at all.
