Martial God: Grinding from Mortal Flesh to Immortality-Chapter 76: Against Du Hua!
Chapter 76: Chapter 76: Against Du Hua!
Chen Mo constantly comforted himself.
Attempting to numb himself with those words, to mask his clownish behavior.
The chatter around him continued relentlessly, and Liu Feng and Ning He, two supervisors from the Celestial Speed Training Camp, were watching the real-time leaderboard with great interest.
"I didn’t expect Lu Sheng to perform so well with just a few combat simulations."
Ning He said with a smile.
Hearing this, Liu Feng also smiled slightly but didn’t say much. He had guided Lu Sheng for several days in the Five Elements Fist, so he knew something about Lu Sheng’s talent.
In Liu Feng’s view, a five-match winning streak was just the beginning.
"Although Lu Sheng is just a Martial Artist, you and I know the terrifying extent of a Martial Artist who has condensed a Qi Blood Illusion. I’m afraid the first place position is already secured by Lu Sheng."
Ning He was a bit surprised by Liu Feng’s words and replied with a smile, "You really think highly of Lu Sheng? I think Du Hua also has hope. This kid is equipped with a top-tier tier-three Star Armor, and his gene compatibility is extremely high. Could it be that the Star Armor cannot compete with the Qi Blood Illusion?"
Liu Feng smiled but didn’t say much more. He simply used his authorization to pull up the footage of Lu Sheng’s test.
"See for yourself."
Hearing Liu Feng’s words, Ning He became very interested and looked at Lu Sheng’s real-time test footage.
In the footage, Lu Sheng was fighting his sixth opponent, a Mechanical Transformer also equipped with a tier-three armor set.
But in the footage, Lu Sheng appeared to be at a disadvantage.
"Hmm? Lu Sheng is at a disadvantage?"
Ning He frowned slightly at this scene. Under normal circumstances, a Martial Artist who has condensed a Qi Blood Illusion should be able to hold their own against other Transcendents of the same level. Being at a disadvantage shouldn’t happen.
But why...
Ning He watched closely and soon discovered the clue.
"Is he... trying to use his opponent to hone his Mental Realm?"
Ning He exclaimed, his face showing some shock. Although he wasn’t a Martial Artist, as an instructor at the Celestial Speed Training Camp, he had the vision.
He knew very well how difficult it was to comprehend a Mental Realm, especially during a battle where a moment’s lapse could lead to defeat and lower test scores.
Lu Sheng... is he really that confident?
Liu Feng smiled slightly, "Do you know how long it took him to comprehend the Mental Realm while studying with me?"
Ning He was stunned and was about to speak when his pupils shook: "What? He comprehended the Mental Realm while studying with you?"
It was no surprise that Ning He was shocked since the Celestial Speed Training Camp had only been open for a week. No matter how Lu Sheng studied, the total time would not exceed seven days.

"Could it be that he had some insights before and comprehended it while receiving your guidance?"
Ning He could only come up with this explanation.
Liu Feng smiled and shook his head: "No... he started from scratch!"
Ning He fell silent, his heart too shocked to speak.
Starting from scratch and comprehending the Mental Realm within a week, and now preparing to use the test to comprehend a second Mental Realm, this kind of prodigy...
"Monster!"
Ning He let out two words long.
In Ning He’s heart, Lu Sheng was now synonymous with the word monster.
...
Time ticked away, and Lu Sheng defeated yet another opponent.
At this moment, Lu Sheng had successfully achieved a nine-match winning streak.
Lu Sheng let out a long breath and slowly closed his eyes.
"Ren Water Realm... only one step left. I hope I can take this crucial step in the final battle!"
As he spoke, Lu Sheng slowly opened his eyes.
Indeed, after battling many opponents, Lu Sheng’s understanding of the Ren Water Realm had deepened, and it was precisely because of this honing of the Ren Water Realm.
That his subsequent opponents had caused Lu Sheng considerable pressure.
Especially after the fifth win, the opponents became increasingly stronger. By the ninth match, relying solely on the yet-to-be-fully-comprehended Ren Water Realm, Lu Sheng almost lost.
"The tenth match will be the final one."
"Don’t let me down!"
Lu Sheng muttered, his expression returning to calmness as he waited for the final opponent to appear.
Buzzzz!
About a minute later, a burly figure slowly emerged before Lu Sheng, someone he was extremely familiar with.
Du Hua!
Indeed, Lu Sheng’s final opponent was Du Hua.
Seeing Du Hua appear, Lu Sheng wasn’t too surprised. After all, it made sense that someone who could take the top spot in the Celestial Speed Star City’s top high school would also be the best in the Celestial Speed Training Camp.
However, when Du Hua saw Lu Sheng, he was obviously taken aback, seemingly not expecting Lu Sheng to be his final opponent.
But after a brief moment of surprise, a smile appeared on Du Hua’s face.
"No matter how much you dodge, you still ended up in my hands!"
Du Hua rubbed his mechanical fists, sparks flying out.
"This first place... can only be mine!"
Du Hua suddenly shouted, and at that moment, the mechanical lines on his body burst into brilliant light, releasing terrifying power. His mechanical fists instantly transformed into two giant mechanical axes, wielding them and unleashing tremendous might.
On the giant axes, two star-like patterns were engraved, and while swinging, those patterns flickered constantly, each flicker radiating a powerful aura.
"Die for me...!"
Du Hua roared, and the giant axes swung fiercely at Lu Sheng as if to shatter him completely.
Lu Sheng’s expression was slightly serious. He instantly punched out with the Five Elements Fist, his internal Qi Blood flowing like water, carrying a soft power to offset the might of the axes.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In the arena, muffled sounds rang out. The axes swung, and Lu Sheng barely resisted. The ground under his feet, however, was shattered under the impact of the axes.
"This can’t go on...?"
Lu Sheng frowned tightly. Du Hua’s strength was undeniable, and combined with the power of the Star Armor, even though Lu Sheng had condensed a Qi Blood Illusion, solely relying on the Ren Water Realm that he hadn’t fully comprehended would eventually lead to defeat.
"The Star Giant Axe’s power... is too fierce."
Lu Sheng muttered.
"Fierce..."
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, a spark of inspiration flashed in Lu Sheng’s mind.
He remembered a phrase from Liu Feng.
"The Ren Water Realm, overcoming hardness with softness!"
"Overcoming hardness... with softness"
Lu Sheng muttered, his eyes becoming increasingly bright and shining.
"I... understand!"
