Chapter 414
If Lu Sheng wanted, he could completely rely on pure physical strength to sweep away the people before him. He had that confidence. But since he aimed to break Dong Shengyi’s martial path, he could only follow his original plan—step by step… to crush his will!
“Don’t let him fully exert his strength. We must join forces to counter him; we can’t afford to be passively beaten!” On the training ground, a burly man with a bear-like build gritted his teeth and said, “Attack together, take the initiative!”
The battle-hardened Master generals had a combat intuition far beyond ordinary martial artists.
As Lu Sheng’s momentum soared and his punch opened the fight, no one dared to face him head-on. The numerous Masters immediately spread out, with the strongest Grandmasters forming the spearhead, attacking Lu Sheng from all directions.
Over four hundred Masters, even when stationary, their combined aura was already terrifying. Now, with the attack unfolding, the momentum connected, and the vast training ground felt like a raging sea, giving an infinite sense of dread with every slight disturbance. Compared to before, the terror was multiplied tenfold, a hundredfold.
In an instant, Lu Sheng seemed like a lone boat in a stormy sea, as if he could be overturned and swallowed at any moment. Yet, Lu Sheng’s face remained calm. He didn’t even look at those people but turned to Dong Shengyi at the edge of the training ground, speaking his second sentence since entering.
“Dong Shengyi.”
“The second step …”
“Defense!”
After speaking, Lu Sheng shifted slightly, spreading his feet. Instantly, his aura changed. He seemed to merge completely with the training ground beneath him, his figure rapidly growing taller, becoming majestic and towering … An aura of immovability emanated from him. If Lu Sheng had been a vulnerable boat in a stormy sea before, now… he was a towering rock, an unextinguishable lighthouse, the eternal calm of the storm’s eye!
Boom! Boom!
At least dozens of Master generals closed in on Lu Sheng, attacking with fists, feet, and cold weapons… Dozens of nearly a hundred Master-level attacks fell on Lu Sheng… Each attack exceeded five million CSI, with stronger ones even reaching multiple stars … In just a moment, Lu Sheng was engulfed in a surge of white protective energy and numerous shadows.
The spectators felt their hearts tighten as they stepped forward involuntarily, their faces etched with extreme tension. Nearly a hundred Masters attacking together … It was a sight to behold. Even a top Grandmaster, the former Eastern First Luminary, would not dare to face such an onslaught head-on. The sheer number of attackers overwhelmed any individual, let alone a Level 7 Martial Master, one in a million! The situation was dire, and the outcome seemed inevitable.
At this moment, even the highest-ranking generals on the top stand, as well as the keen-eyed Dong Shengyi, showed serious expressions.
“How is this possible?!” Suddenly, a voice filled with disbelief and a hint of tremor came from the white light and black tide engulfing Lu Sheng.
The spectators strained to see, but the numerous Master figures blocked their view, preventing them from seeing what was happening inside. At this moment, in the center of the battle, the Masters attacking Lu Sheng were all filled with shock, bewilderment, and disbelief. Their Qi shields, martial wills, and protective energies were all pushed to the limit, but these attacks stopped a few inches or a dozen inches from Lu Sheng, unable to advance.
There was an extremely terrifying and invisible force field around Lu Sheng that even Master-level combat power couldn’t penetrate. At this time, Lu Sheng slightly shook his shoulders …
Boom!
A massive wave of air spread out, and over a hundred figures exploded like fireworks, scattering in all directions. When the chaos settled, Lu Sheng’s figure reappeared, completely unharmed, not even a crease on his clothes. The spectators could hardly believe their eyes.
A Qi shield originates from life force, blood, and martial will. With six immortal cells, dozens of Master wills, and vast Level 8 Spiritual Power … plus the ultimate defense of the Immovable Brightness* … When combined, with his Grandmaster level qi shield had been amplified to an extremely terrifying level. Once unleashed, not even ordinary Grandmasters could touch him.

Lu Sheng effortlessly tore off his upper combat uniform, revealing a tight, short-sleeved T-shirt underneath. His upper body, a masterpiece of sculpted power, was now on display. He moved with fluid grace, his arms and spine undulating like mighty dragons, making the surrounding light shift and shimmer. As he walked toward the remaining Master generals, he resembled a towering mountain range advancing with thunderous intent.
At that moment, everyone witnessing this scene had the same thought: The strongest spear and the strongest shield … combined in one!
***
Numerous generals, intimidated by Lu Sheng’s aura, retreated in fear. The sight of Lu Sheng shaking off over a hundred people was truly shocking. That kind of unstoppable, invincible momentum made them momentarily lose the will to resist. In the crowd, a tall, handsome man with a slightly feminine demeanor had a cold glint in his eyes. He carried a black long spear in one hand, moving like a ghost through the retreating figures. Suddenly, he leaped out of the crowd and thrust his spear at Lu Sheng.
All the man’s protective energy flowed into the long spear, making its tip shine with an incredibly sharp light. In an instant, this point of starlight crossed the distance of the training ground, striking towards Lu Sheng. As the spear entered Lu Sheng’s Qi shield, it visibly slowed down. The layers of invisible force created a terrifying barrier, halting the spear. The man’s attack was so fast that the spectators only recognized him when his strike fell.
“Li Qingshan, one of the Seven Luminaries of the East! Ranked third on the generals’ list! His combat power is 14.5 stars! With a cold weapon’s enhancement … and he still can’t break through Lu Sheng’s Qi shield?!”
The spectators’ expressions turned to shock. At this moment, new developments occurred. The man tensed, veins bulging on his forehead, his face flushed. Both hands gripped the spear, transmitting wave after wave of terrifying power into it. His expression twisted, and he roared, “Break!”
This shout seemed to be the final straw. The spear’s tip suddenly shone brighter, breaking through the invisible barrier and stabbing into Lu Sheng’s chest. Everyone’s eyes lit up, and many generals instinctively tightened their grips on their weapons, spirits lifted.
“Ah!” Lin Wanwan at the edge of the field gasped, covering her mouth, while Dong Qingxue took a step forward, her beautiful eyes full of worry. The man’s face began to show a smile. He had succeeded. Who said this was the strongest shield? He had broken through it; Lu Sheng wasn’t invulnerable.
But the next moment …
Clang!
The spear tip hit Lu Sheng’s chest, tearing his shirt and making a clear sound like a great temple bell. Invisible ripples spread from the spear tip, and the entire black spear bent into a bow shape. The man’s smile froze instantly.
Lu Sheng glanced at the spear stuck in his chest and calmly said to the man in front of him, “Are you trying to scratch me?”
He grabbed the spear tip with one hand, extinguishing the brilliant light effortlessly, then shook his wrist. A terrible shockwave traveled back along the spear.
Bang!
The spear, like a dragon turning over, immediately flew out of the man’s hands and struck his chest.
Pfft!
The man was hit hard, flying dozens of meters away like a kite with a broken string. He fell to the ground, struggled to get up, his arms bleeding and trembling.
The sound of gasping filled the field. Everyone stared at the spot where the spear had hit Lu Sheng. His shirt had a small tear, revealing smooth skin with a slightly sunken red dot that was quickly healing.
Li Qingshan, the third Luminary of the East, with nearly 15-star combat power, had used all his strength to break through and stab Lu Sheng … yet it hadn’t even broken the skin?!
