Martial Saint with Passives

White Cloud Martial Arts Hall, Disciple Courtyard.

The sparring matches officially began.

First, both sides sent out disciples of the Bull Skin Realm to spar.

A large area in the courtyard was cleared, and two young-faced disciples walked out.

The one representing White Cloud Martial Arts Hall was a fair-skinned, chubby-faced young man.

The one sent by Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall was a tall, muscular female disciple with a fierce expression.

After exchanging fist-and-palm salutes, they began to fight.

Neither of their Fist Techniques were very sophisticated. However, the tall female disciple from Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall had more abundant Qi Blood, and the fair-skinned, chubby disciple was soon unable to defend himself and was defeated.

Next, White Cloud Martial Arts Hall sent up a dark and skinny disciple.

His Fist Techniques were clearly far more refined, and his Qi Blood was also a notch stronger than the fair-skinned, chubby disciple’s.

The tall female disciple from Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall missed several times with her attacks of Barbaric Power. The dark and skinny disciple seized an opportunity, landed a punch on her abdomen, and sent her falling heavily to the ground.

”You let me win.”

The dark and skinny disciple offered a fist-and-palm salute, a faint smile on his face.

However, Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall then sent up a tall male disciple.

This person not only had vigorous Qi Blood, but his Fist Techniques were also proficient.

The dark and skinny disciple from White Cloud Martial Arts Hall was quickly defeated.

Since White Cloud Martial Arts Hall had no other Bull Skin Realm disciples, the Bull Skin Realm matches came to an end.

For the following Stone Skin Realm matches, Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall sent up a dark-skinned, burly young man.

He was about 1.9 meters tall and had a very intimidating presence.

White Cloud Martial Arts Hall, in turn, sent up Lin Xue’er.

Standing together, Lin Xue’er didn’t even reach his shoulder, making her look like a child in comparison.

”Why is everyone from Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall, men and women alike, so big?”

The fair-skinned, chubby disciple from the White Cloud side asked curiously.

An effeminate male disciple chimed in:

”Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall has a different philosophy from ours. They believe the best defense is a good offense. They don’t like dodging and weaving, preferring to specialize in attacks, even trading injuries to land a blow!”

”Then do you think Senior Sister Lin will win, Senior Brother?” the fair-skinned, chubby disciple asked.

The effeminate male disciple shook his head. ”Their Qi Blood Realms are similar, but... it will be difficult.”

Indeed, on the stage, although Lin Xue’er was agile, the few Fist Techniques she landed on the dark, burly disciple from Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall were completely ineffective.

In contrast, the burly disciple’s strikes were incredibly fierce, and Lin Xue’er didn’t dare to receive them directly.

After nearly being hit several times in a row, Lin Xue’er began to panic.

In truth, her Talent wasn’t bad, but after she started managing her family’s business, her training fell by the wayside, and her skills had grown rusty.

Not wanting to get injured, she jumped out of the ring and conceded defeat.

Seeing this, Luo Kun sighed softly, his thoughts turning to Zhang Xiong.

’Zhang Xiong and Lin Xue’er both had decent Talent. I had high hopes for them back then, but now they’ve both given up on the Martial Dao. Of course, everyone has their own difficulties. Besides, for many people, the Martial Dao is just a means to gain status and position. If there are other ways to achieve that, who would be willing to suffer through the hardships of cultivating the Martial Dao?’

But understanding was one thing; Luo Kun still felt a bit down.

After Lin Xue’er, White Cloud Martial Arts Hall sent up the effeminate male disciple and a short-haired female disciple in succession, but neither was a match for their opponent, and both were defeated quickly.

At this moment, a tall and sturdy male disciple from White Cloud Martial Arts Hall entered the ring.

This was Hu Hui.

The disciples from White Cloud Martial Arts Hall began to whisper among themselves.

”Can Senior Brother Hu win?”

”In previous years, definitely. But Senior Brother Hu failed his breakthrough again a while ago, and his Realm regressed too much. I feel like it’ll be difficult...”

”Doesn’t that mean we don’t have a single person in the Stone Skin Realm who can win?”

”It’s very likely...”

Hu Hui walked into the center of the ring, his face devoid of expression.

After exchanging fist-and-palm salutes, they began to fight.

To everyone’s surprise, even though Hu Hui’s Realm had plummeted after failing to break through to the Iron Skin Realm, he still managed to suppress the dark, burly disciple from Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall.

After ten moves, Hu Hui seized an opening and struck the burly disciple in the solar plexus, knocking him back.

”Way to go!”

”Senior Brother Hu is the best!”

The disciples from White Cloud Martial Arts Hall all cheered.

But Hu Hui remained expressionless. After a brief fist-and-palm salute, he waited for the next opponent.

Next, Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall sent up two more disciples in succession, but neither was a match for him. The morale on the White Cloud Martial Arts Hall side gradually began to rise.

Luo Kun nodded slightly.

’Although Hu Hui failed to break through to the Iron Skin Realm and his Realm regressed, he has, after all, touched the barrier of the Iron Skin Realm multiple times. His combat experience and his understanding of Fist Technique are not things an ordinary Stone Skin Realm disciple can compare to.’

Then, a tall, fat disciple from Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall who was built like a ball stepped up.

Unlike the previous opponents, this person was at the Peak of the Stone Skin Realm. Although he had never been able to break through to the Iron Skin Realm, his reserves of Qi Blood and his understanding of Fist Techniques were on a completely different level from those who came before him.

Therefore, Hu Hui no longer had an advantage against him.

After they fought for twenty moves, Hu Hui was finally defeated.

”What a shame. If Senior Brother Hu were still at the Peak of the Stone Skin Realm, he might have been able to win...”

”Yeah, Senior Brother Hu was at a disadvantage because of his Qi Blood.”

The disciples from White Cloud Martial Arts Hall sighed.

”Do you have anyone else over there?” the tall, fat disciple from Fierce Wind Martial Arts Hall asked loudly.

”I remember there were two others in your group, right? Why aren’t they here yet?” the effeminate male disciple asked Lin Xue’er.

”Zhang Xiong’s entire family moved away; he won’t be coming back. As for Jiang Che... who knows? I haven’t seen him in a long time,” Lin Xue’er said faintly.
