Chapter 118 THE DIFFERENCE ll
The wind dragon tries to back up but he just raises his hand and it was getting pulled by him.
Devour!
But without the power of his aura, the wind dragon breaks free from the pulling force, it’s wing was already healing.
He already expected this from a dragon but still.
ROAR!
The T-Rex let out a roar, trying to buy some time for his teammate but his sound based attack was of no use.
With only one usable foot, it was clumsily trying to stand up.
Earthquake Stomp!
The wind dragon was unaffected but for the T-Rex, this move was lethal, it tries to balance itself but it was difficult with just one foot.
Dash!
Before he can reach the T-Rex, a massive wind blades appears on his path, nearly cutting him.
ROAR!
The wind dragon roars, clutching on it’s wings, it knows that winning is already impossible but it doesn’t want to give up.
Sean shifts his stance and was about to unleash a Bullet Punch when a breath attack was sent flying towards him.
Shockwave!
He slaps his enlarged palm, creating a barrier made out of shock.
The wind dragon opens it’s mouth to fire it’s own breath attack but was met with a flaming dragon.
Fire Dragon Breath!
BOOM!
One attack and it immediately falls to the floor, unconscious, the only one left is the T-Rex.
It glares at him defiantly, earning his respect.
Earthquake Stomp!
Once again, the area starts trembling, the T-Rex can’t keep it’s balance, knowing what’s next, it spins and expects to hit Sean without even knowing if his tail can hit.
Redirection!
Sean leads the tail upward, redirecting it’s power to another direction.
While it’s power was gone, he grabs the tail once again and the T-Rex was actually flipped over.
Overturning!
It was confused as to what is happening, the world was already moving strangely and now, it was going upside down.
Tai Chi Third Move: Shocking Palm!
When the power starts wreaking havoc on it’s internal organs, this T-Rex can’t help but roar in pain.
Sean was surprised to see that his opponent didn’t get knocked out from that attack.
Without hesitation, he steps forward and pushes his fist deeper and punching it away.
Vajra Kong Punch!
BOOM!
It crashes into a wall, knocked out from the final blow.
"What a tough beast! To think that it survived against Shocking Palm." He praises.
Kommi agrees with his words, she knows, that Shocking Palm was perfect, it should had knocked out his target and yet failed to do so, it was Sean doing the attack! Not her.
"Okay, now that’s dealt with, John, can you bring this guy back to their quarters, Cladiius call some of your brothers to help."
The others are speechless on how he dealt with an elite gold ranker.
He doesn’t care, he might not truly knows what the competition entails but he do knows that it’s actually more important than they first expected.
The words of the grand elder of the Cloud Stepping Sect continues to repeat in his mind.
The result of this competition will dictate what future mankind will hold.
As someone who wishes to protect his family and friends, he doesn’t want anything to happen in this world.
He’s confident in his strength but just in case, he’ll try to reach the middle stage of his cultivation.
John was more than happy to strut in from of the faces of those from Zone B.
Following after him were some students from City Z3, Cladiius and Christine.
In fact, Bear also went with them but secretly, if those from Zone B really dares to make a move, he’ll make a commotion that will attract the attention of everyone, buying enough time for Maki or Sean to arrive.
"For now, I’m only teaching theoretical knowledge but tomorrow, once you rested enough, I think it’s better for you to start challenging those from other zones."
Seeing everyone’s eager faces, he can’t help but laugh out loud.
"Don’t worry, we got your back, since they used their background to suppress you guys, you will use my strength to shut them up."
"Hahaha! Don’t forget about me! I’ll fight them if any adults dare to make a move."
Maki was about to say something but Sean stops her.
"Use this time to consolidate your strength, don’t worry about the school, I promise you, as long as both Fabuki and I are still alive, we will protect them and I will protect you."
She trembles slightly after hearing his words but she agrees nonetheless.
"Fabuki, find a different place for your sister to cultivate, preferably a place that’s peaceful and full of spiritual energy."
Fabuki chuckles, she looks at her sister who turns her head away, blushing after getting caught by her little sister.
"Don’t worry about that, our mother owns a place in the Core Zone, the both of us can stay there whenever we want."
Maki nods her head. It seems that even if their mother’s family isn’t as strong as their father side, it wasn’t average.
"Good, grow stronger, once you reach the Innate Realm, we can transform Zone Z to be equal to the Core Zone and this time, it’s going to be the Tatsu Family that’s going to be one of the superpower not the Sichuan."
Fabuki became dazed, Maki can’t help but giggle looking at her sister’s expression.
’See, I told you, his words will definitely make you heart skip a beat, he doesn’t know the weight of his words.’ She tells her telepathically.
Fabuki looks at him, his expression was innocent.
"Perverted playboy."
"Wait, what?" He was confused, why do they have to insult him? He didn’t say anything bad.
The two sisters left him, his face is still full of confusion, he can only sigh as he knows that he can truly never understand how a woman think and that’s why he’s a single virgin on his former life.
He decided to change his focus in training the students of City Z5, at least, he’s confident that he understands the principles of some techniques.
"Bobby, tomorrow, I want you to practice Shiko starting tomorrow, you can use King Boar as your partner during grappling and tackling session."
After telling Bobby some of his ideas, he turns to Onichichi.
"Your fighting style is already developed well and the only thing you need to focus right now is increasing your vital force and the power of your legs, I’ll teach you a move called One Step Strike, this will definitely increase your combat strength."
Onichichi wants to say something to him but decided to not pursue it.
The One Step Strike.
He doesn’t know what she’s thinking but he decided to showcase one of his favorite move.
"The One Step Strike is actually just a dash and a punch but you must move your body in tandem in your strike."
He lowers his stance and when he takes a step forward, a slapping sound can be heard as he punches the air.
"It’s perfect for someone like you since you already trained in Mountain Breaking Fist, if you can combine the two, then, you can truly defeat an opponent in just one strike."
She nods her head, that move is something that she really needs.
Her fighting style involves getting close to her opponent, if she can learn a move that deals damage and closes the distance between her and her target, it would greatly help her.
"Sweet Fruit, I don’t know how to develop your bloodline but since it increases your strength by going berserk, I think that it’s better if you pick your future pet beasts to have a berserk skill on their abilities."
Thinking about his personality becoming violent, he added.
"Also, don’t only think of growing stronger physically, you should also learn how to grow spiritually, so, every day, your next task is to meditate together with the others, do you understand?"
Sweet Fruit can only nods his head gloomily, he looks as if he was thrown to the underworld, meditation is one thing that he’s not good at.
"Also, I’m going to teach you, a martial art that will help you, this martial art needs you to gain more focus and also perfect for body tempering, it’s called Karate."
"Leo, you’re different, you need to meditate, you already sensed it, the CQC Series not only requires physical strength but also mental capacity."
For his student, Leo, he really doesn’t need to teach him that much since he’s already developing quite well, they only need time and experience.
"Emirose, you’re lacking in the software department, train your moves once again but this time, don’t only focus in knife hand, also incorporate some other techniques, you need to develop a one hit attack that directs all your strength in just one blow, you already have a great support to help you lock your opponent’s action."
She nods her head.
Sean ponders slightly, he then raises his hand, with one forceful swing, he slashes a large mark in the floor.
[Congratulations to the host for creating a new skill! Slash!
Slash (Basic): Attack with the entire body’s strength, this move can be enhanced by metal element, creating a sharp trait, if powered by the Iron Will Rune, the attack can be thrown in long range
Metal Coating (Intermediate): Sword Hand, can use sword techniques with only hands.
Iron Will Rune (Advanced): Can send flying slashing attacks powered by vital force and willpower.
"Just as you can see, you can send a powerful strike as long as you move your body in tandem with your attack."
Inwardly, he was feeling happy that he learns a new skill and it has a lot of usage.
"Thank you, Sean-sensei! I will not disappoint you!" She shouts, determined to keep her rank amongst their group.
"Bones, I think it’s better if you fight together with your pet beast in order to increase your understanding as a martial artist, you can’t only focus in yourself, you also need to help your partner grows stronger."
Bones was feeling sheepish, he truly has been neglecting his partner and feels embarrassed to be reminded of his own stupidity.
"Good, every day, after training or before training, study, the more knowledge you know, the safer for it for you in the future."
He then turns to the person that has the most complicated training regime of everyone.
"Kommi, I must apologize to you first, I had been teaching you all the martial arts I know and this might had split your focus, I’m sorry, you’re just too talented that I put too much pressure on you."
Taekwondo, Boxing, Tai Chi and Judo.
She was already joggling numerous martial arts other than what he had taught her.
Kommi has no complaint, hearing that his expectations towards her is actually higher than the rest made her feel proud.
He pulls her and whispers in her ears. "Thank you for continuing practicing my martial arts without complaining, I accept you as my disciple and as such, I have decided to teach you the supreme technique of my school, the Basic Cultivation Technique."
Her eyes widens, she didn’t expect this.
"Don’t lock your room later, don’t tell anyone about this, the value of this technique is just too great."
She nods her head, clearly giddy with excitement, the legendary cultivation art that even elite gold ranks such as Maki and Fabuki desires is going to be hers tonight!
"Missel, I can see that you’re improving quite well, rest for now and start challenging other participants tomorrow, the only thing that you’re actually lacking is time and experience, don’t worry about slow speed of your ranking, you are already fast compared to others."
She knows this but she compares herself to John and the rest, unfortunately for her, the resources from their city isn’t enough to push her to bronze rank without getting her foundation broken.
"Your current situation right now is too awkward, the only people that can actually put up a good fight against you under bronze rank is your boyfriend and Kommi, neither of the two has any heart to actually hurt you."
