"Bang!"
"Bang!"
With each punch, strands of green light orbs fell to the ground.
A smile appeared on Han Ye's face as he moved closer to the attribute location.
"Pick Up Attribute: Profound Boxing Skill +1"
"Pick Up Attribute: Profound Boxing Skill +3"
"Pick Up Attribute: Profound Boxing Skill +2"
...
The two exchanged blows, seemingly equal, neither able to overpower the other.
The scarred man's expression changed from initially relaxed and casual to serious and concentrated, and finally to shock.
Han Ye really knew how to box.
And it wasn't just a few days of training.
His punches were ruthless, coming from unique angles.
He was clearly a martial artist who had been practicing boxing for years.
The reason for his shock was simple.
He found that Han Ye's boxing skill was improving gradually.
At the start, he was able to take the advantage and dominate Han Ye.
But slowly, the opponent's boxing began to become mature, always finding some tricky angles to attack his lower body.
Fast and ferocious!
Those watching were also filled with admiration.
They had witnessed Han Ye's progress – from being at a disadvantage at first to gradually suppressing the scarred man.
"Crack!"
Han Ye's punch hit a big tree in the inner courtyard, creating a crisp and sonorous sound and making tree leaves flutter down.
A deep fist mark appeared on the trunk, with some wood chips falling off.
"This…"
The scarred man was shocked, astonished at the opponent's strength.
Han Ye had not used his full strength; otherwise, the tree would have surely fallen over.
His control of strength was excellent. The power of his boxing technique was concentrated around the fist mark, and did not dissipate.
"So that's how it is... to reach a higher realm with the Tiger Arm Fist, one must more subtly control the force, concentrate the useful force on one point, like a grinder being turned into a needle, compressing the cotton into the density of steel. The explosive power is even greater this way."
After half an hour of practicing boxing, Han Ye began to understand.
He had some insight into the grand achievement of the Tiger Arm Fist, which is the precise control of force.
Being able to integrate the force and concentrate it on one point, punching it out, piercing the tree, and penetrating the rock.
Han Ye gradually understood the true essence of the grand accomplishment of his boxing technique.
This had a lot to do with his continuous absorption of attributes.
"Profound Boxing Skill (50/100): Your boxing skill is extremely proficient, deeply understood, with slightly higher comprehension of boxing techniques."
When Han Ye checked the panel, he found that the progress of his profound boxing skill had come halfway.
The progress was considerable. It seemed that practicing boxing with these martial artists was a good choice.
"His Tiger Arm Fist is showing signs of great accomplishment; you are not his match."
At this time, Liu Lingqi appeared in the inner courtyard and said indifferently to the scarred man.
"Greetings, Miss."
Everyone quickly greeted her.
While everyone was practicing boxing, the young lady had returned.
"What's the point of bullying them? I'll practice with you. The kind without mercy."
Liu Lingqi took off the arm guards wrapped around her hand expressionlessly, and said calmly.
A faint line appeared on Han Ye's forehead.
What did she mean by bullying? He was clearly the newcomer, right?
But he reluctantly agreed.
"Okay…"
He still wanted to pick up some more attributes.
Well now...
As soon as his words fell.
The area became quiet.
The early sun pierced through the fog, filtering through the gap in the trees in the inner courtyard.
Both of them stood by the wooden stake, silent with heads down. The atmosphere gradually became tense.
Han Ye knew that her realm was higher than his, so he didn't dare to be careless.
He clenched his fists and waited for the perfect moment to punch.
Liu Lingqi did the same.
The rustling of the tree tops accompanied by the gentle breeze, the two standing against each other, were silent as statues.
Han Ye stared at Liu Lingqi's beautiful face, thin eyes, bright red lips... her eyes narrowed, legs ready to launch...
However, as a falling green leaf was about to touch the ground.
"Bang!"
Two figures sprung out, the roaring wind from their boxing immediately filled the whole inner courtyard.
They both lifted their fists simultaneously, leaving two inverted figures under the rising sun.
Neither of them scored a hit, and they both stepped back.
Han Ye tapped his foot lightly on the ground and took a deep breath.
He squatted slightly, slowly assuming a majestic boxing stance.
Dragon and Tiger Breath.
A strand of Dragon and Tiger Breath in his body was like a wandering dragon, moving within him, and pouring into his legs.
He raised his foot and stomped down heavily.
Not only did the entire Inner courtyard tremble slightly, countless fallen leaves on the ground were blown up by an invisible force, and dust was flying under Han Ye's feet.
He threw a punch.
Unstoppable.
Liu Lingqi punched back, yet facing the howling wind and thunder, she couldn't help but frown.
Seemingly realizing this was no ordinary punch.
She couldn't take it with her flesh and blood.
If she took it with flesh and blood, she would undoubtedly lose.
All eyes were on her. How could she possibly lose?
Thus, the invisible True Qi traveled around her body, gathering in her palm, and her expression soon became calm.
Fist intent spreading, Qi Force lingering.
Eventually, she still activated her True Qi and hurled the punch out.
"Crackle!"
Carrying a series of afterimages, it was too fast for the naked eye to catch, exploding the surrounding air to a degree like a cannon's roar.
Incredibly terrifying, far exceeding her previous punching techniques.
The punch that ripped the air, triggering a deafening air burst, had reached a level that ordinary martial artists could hardly match.
This is the means of a cultivator!
Only a cultivator can activate True Qi, unleash the potential of the body, and turn decay into magic.
Without a doubt, Han Ye was no match for her.
Han Ye's punch was directly broken by Liu Lingqi, taking the brunt of her punch.
Even though Liu Lingqi intentionally held back, not wanting to hurt anyone, but Han Ye was still knocked away by her punch.
Darn!
This woman was too much.
While in mid-air, Han Ye only had one thought in his mind.
At first, they just sparred normally, body against body.
But why did she suddenly use True Qi?
It wasn't necessary to go all out right away.
Han Ye lay on the ground, as if his chest had been severely hit with a huge hammer, breaking several ribs.
He swallowed back the taste of copper in his throat.
If it weren't for the protection of Dragon-Tiger Physique, he would have spewed out three jin of blood.
He struggled to stand up, just in time to see a faint blue light appearing at Liu Lingqi's previous standing position!
Another attribute!
And it's directly blue!
When Liu Lingqi saw Han Ye go down, a hint of worry appeared in her eyes.
She merely wanted to teach him a lesson and let him know that in Liu Manor, he couldn't show off his martial prowess. But as they kept sparring, she realized she couldn't win without using her full power.
By using True Qi, she exerted too much force, and he was directly knocked away.
She thought about stepping forward to help him, but to her surprise, Han Ye, even after taking her True Qi-filled punch, could still stand up.
She was taken aback by his bodily strength.
Han Ye could feel his body rapidly healing under the nourishment of the Dragon and Tiger Breath. He walked a few steps to the attribute light, picked up some attribute strands.
"Attribute collected: Unparalleled Fist Intent +1"
"Attribute collected: Unparalleled Fist Intent +1"
After Han Ye absorbed all the attributes, he suddenly realized that the "Unparalleled Fist Intent" was not simple.
The 'mastery of punching techniques' progress bar in front of his eyes suddenly surged a great deal!
Then it transformed!
"Unparalleled Fist Intent (51/500): Your speed in practicing punching techniques is far superior to ordinary people, you can master the intent of punches."
He then realized that 'Unparalleled Fist Intent' was a more advanced attribute, and 'Mastery of Punching Techniques' was of the same origin!
If you get a higher-level attribute, it will directly replace the lower-level one, while still retaining the points added from the lower-level attribute.
Han Ye rubbed his nose, feeling the punch strength in his arm deepen a bit, and muttered to himself.
Well, well, well... that's how we're playing, is it?
Then don't blame me for not being polite.
"Miss, let's continue."
Hearing Han Ye's words, Liu Lingqi's face changed with surprise and asked:
"You still want to fight?"
Even she was afraid of disabling Han Ye. After all, he was one of her men; she couldn't go too far.
Besides, she just wanted to discipline Han Ye a bit.
To let him know how high the sky was and how thick the earth was.
Who would have thought, Han Ye was so fearless, he still wanted to fight!
"I've learned a lot from sparring with Miss!"
Han Ye noticed that his mildly fractured ribs were quickly healed by Dragon and Tiger Breath. His stamina increased, and if he could take a few more hits, he could gain a few more points in 'Unparalleled Fist Intent', directly transform, and another blue attribute would be under his control.
He then shouted with great confidence:
"Come on!"
