Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 107: Chapter 107: Broken Martial Soul_1

Fierce Tiger Claw!

Li Xinghui’s combat style indeed related to wild beasts. With this move, in a flash, it seemed as if one could see a fierce tiger pouncing toward Shi Yu Lian.

His claws, wrapped in Gang Qi, faintly possessed the momentum to effortlessly rip apart anything.

Rip!

This claw strike was precise to the extreme. Even though Shi Yu Lian’s body movement technique was outstanding and her speed was very fast, she was still directly caught on the arm by Li Xinghui, and her clothes immediately tore apart.

Shi Yu Lian’s arms trembled slightly, and fine traces of blood appeared on her arms.

It was only because she dodged quickly, using a Transcendent Martial Arts Fragmentary Secret to accelerate her speed, that she avoided Li Xinghui’s terrifying attack at that instant.

Otherwise, with that move, she would have been defeated, her arms absolutely shredded.

”This Li Xinghui, he really doesn’t show any mercy, does he?”

”Indeed, the most frightening thing about him is this. It seems that nothing can move his heart, which is why he’s always so focused when fighting and practicing martial arts.”

”His Fierce Tiger Claw should only be Advanced Martial Arts, right? But why does it seem different when he performs it, compared to others?”

”Yes, it seems like there’s something more.”

”Beastliness!”

”That’s right, that’s it. Others’ Fierce Tiger Claws merely have the form, but his Fierce Tiger Claw has both shape and spirit. No wonder it’s so terrifyingly powerful.”

Many in the audience were actually seeing Li Xinghui take action for the first time, so naturally, they were surprised.

Even the descendants of the Li Clan usually only saw Li Xinghui use their family’s sword techniques. It was rare for him to use such moves.

It looked like this martial skill, full of beastliness, was actually Li Xinghui’s specialty.

”Come at me again!”

Although Shi Yu Lian’s hands were still trembling slightly, her eyes shone with excitement.

Such combat was indeed highly beneficial for her. As for the injury on her arm, she didn’t care at all.

When she charged again, her speed was even faster, and her body movements were even more unpredictable. Clearly, she did not dare to hold back any longer.

Because she knew that even the slightest hesitation could make her look like a clown before Li Xinghui.

It would be a miserable defeat.

She did not seek victory now; she only wanted to hold on for a few more exchanges, so at the very least, she could understand a bit more.

However, that’s what she thought.

Li Xinghui did not wish to waste more time.

Although from beginning to end, Li Xinghui hardly changed his moves, using only Fierce Tiger Claw, and had not even moved from his spot.

Yet, each of his attacks precisely exploited Shi Yu Lian’s weaknesses.

Shi Yu Lian felt a vast gap.

Fighting with Li Xinghui felt like battling a hundred martial artists of the same level. Not only was it exhausting, but it was also filled with danger at every turn, without any room for carelessness.

However, even so, she was defeated on the third move.

Li Xinghui’s merciless claw strike tore open the clothes on Shi Yu Lian’s back, leaving on her body bone-deep claw marks of martial arts.

”Ah——!”

Shi Yu Lian screamed in pain, nearly fainting on the spot.

Struggling, she reached the third stage, her face extremely pale. She quickly swallowed an Injury Healing Pill and began to heal with her eyes closed.

”This Li Xinghui is too terrifying, just like a humanoid monster beast!”

”Yeah, to defeat Shi Yu Lian he just used that same move, Fierce Tiger Claw, back and forth. Though it’s infuriating, you can’t help but admire him.”

”Not only does his Fierce Tiger Claw possess both shape and spirit, but it also has great variation. The key is that every attack captures the opponent’s weaknesses. That’s really terrifying.”

Any martial artist with a bit of insight could see what was the most terrifying thing about Li Xinghui.

It wasn’t his realm.

Nor his martial skills.

It was his dreadful discernment.

On the first stage, Li Xinghui merely glanced indifferently at Shi Yu Lian, then withdrew his gaze and sat back down.

Defeating Shi Yu Lian seemed to cause him no harm at all, as if he were merely swatting away a fly.

Shi Yu Lian was utterly defeated, and it was quite a miserable sight, surely the Shi Clan would not take this lying down.

First, Shi Yue stepped up to challenge.

The result was still the same, within three moves, Shi Yue was defeated, his body marked with five claw scratches.

Then Shi Fei Yu took his turn to step up for the challenge.

As one of last year’s top four young masters, Shi Fei Yu could not stand more than three moves against Li Xinghui either.

His ”Iron Armor Divine Skill” in front of Li Xinghui’s claws was like paper-mâché, too pitiful to witness.

Of course, having been defeated, Shi Fei Yu could not escape the claw marks left by Li Xinghui.

The most terrifying aspect was that from beginning to end, Li Xinghui showed no variation in his technique, continuously using Fierce Tiger Claw.

Facing his opponents’ top-level martial arts, this advanced martial art displayed an unimaginably powerful effect.

Transcendental Realm?

No, it’s not as simple as just the Transcendental Realm.

Ling Xiao shook his head, Li Xinghui’s use of advanced martial arts felt more terrifying than the Great Achievement Realm of beginner-level transcendent martial arts.

This simply defied all logic; not even the advanced martial arts of the Transcendental Realm could reach this level.

There is indeed something fishy going on!

Hm?

As Ling Xiao was analyzing Li Xinghui, he suddenly noticed several crimson dots appearing on the Mountain and River Map.

These dots were right at the Tianfeng Grand Gathering venue, all clustered together.

Yet according to the standard of the Mountain and River Map, these dots represented strengths even greater than Ling Xiaotian’s.

None of the masters present at Tianfeng City could match up to these red dots.

He turned his head to look over.

He then realized that these individuals were mingling amongst a small family clan, and they all seemed to be around twenty years old.

They were indeed very young, yet their strength was terrifyingly formidable.

Who were they?

”Did someone notice us?”

Ling Xiao was observing them, and suddenly, these few people also cast their gaze towards Ling Xiao.

”How could that be, that kid is merely at the Martial Vein Fifth Peak Realm, how could he possibly discern what sets us apart? He must have just chanced a look this way.”

After this person finished speaking, indeed Ling Xiao diverted his gaze towards another direction.

”See, I told you so, that kid is far from matching up to that Li Xinghui. It is said that Li Xinghui was raised by monster beasts, but I think there might be more to it—his bloodline might even have beastial origins.”

”Yes, who would have thought that in this small Tianfeng City, we would come across such a talented young person? This Li Xinghui could be considered within the top hundred prodigies of the entire Baiyun Province.”

”No, you all haven’t fully grasped it; this person must have awakened one-tenth of his Martial Soul, and it’s likely a Beast Martial Soul, though which particular animal it is, remains unknown.”

Another voice chimed in.

”How could that be! Though awakening a full ten-tenths, which is rare in today’s world, signifies the true ownership of a Martial Soul, even awakening one-tenth of a Broken Martial Soul is incredibly terrifying. If that’s the case, he could potentially rank in the top twenty of Baiyun Province.”

This conversation went unheard by anyone else.

None of the many experts present at the Tianfeng Grand Gathering managed to detect anything odd about these few individuals.

Ling Xiao didn’t hear their conversation, but he ”saw” it.

By analyzing their lip movements through the Mountain and River Martial Soul, he already knew what they were talking about.

A Broken Martial Soul?

Awakened to one-tenth?

No wonder he always felt there was something quite unique about Li Xinghui, and now he understood.

His gaze towards Li Xinghui became somewhat special.

After all, in this world, apart from himself, Li Xinghui was the first martial artist he had encountered with a Broken Martial Soul.

Even if it was just awakened to one-tenth, it bore no comparison to his own complete Martial Soul.
