The Favored Son Of Heaven

Chapter 188: The Transcendent Qin Fen

Ge Bing could also be considered a heroic teenager. There were only a few among his peers who could make him take a glance. At this moment, his heart was in turmoil as a sense of oppression came down on him with the weight of Mount Tai.

At the same time, the other nine young men who were still being hostile to each other also had their scalp tingle. A chill followed along their spines, shooting straight towards the back of their heads, just like a sports car racing down the highway.

For the very first time, the nine young experts had their hairs stood on their ends, like a cat that had its tail stepped upon. They turned their bodies slightly, facing Qin Fen directly so that they could launch an attack at Qin Fen.

At this moment, they were in disbelief; Qin Fen truly wanted to challenge all ten of them alone.

One must know that all of the people who were standing here certainly had a powerful force standing behind them.

As long as one wasn’t a fool, he could guess that scions with that kind of backing not only could have a high-rank martial art that could hardly be bought with money but a high-ranked biochemical beast as well, the price of which could easily bankrupt a middle-cla.s.s family!

When fighting against a martial artist of the same rank, the biochemical beast was like a huge cheat: it absolutely wasn’t as simple as gaining an upper hand.

But they had no choice but to respond to Qin Fen, as the intense battle intent emanating from Qin Fen was like a knife, constantly poking their skin, telling that this wild-talking young man was indeed not talking any nonsense.

“Come, if you won’t opt out, then, help me make a name for myself among the martial artists of the younger generation!”

Qin Fen’s voice was filled with pride. His aura suddenly rose once more, his bones constantly screaming from the waves of true energy, the blood flowing in his veins was constantly giving out burbling noise like that of a turbulent river. His heart was making strong and powerful beats as similar to drumbeats, thump, thump thump…

A cold gleam suddenly flashed past the eyes of the always smiling Butler Hou as he pursed the corner of his lips into a slight smile, likes of which ordinary people could not perceive. With the powerful Dragon Elephant Prajna Art matched with this kind of overbearing aura, Qin Fen indeed had the qualifications to bravely shout for a fight that was one against ten.

On a window on the second floor, Song Jia nervously clenched the laced window curtains as she watched the situation developing in the courtyard.

She knew that Qin Fen could fight, but she had never expected that Qin Fen would actually decide to take all ten of them alone. Although these young men might not look like the scions of aristocratic families to ordinary people, it didn’t mean that they weren’t.

On the contrary, they had received good education since their childhood. They indeed had the qualifications to become the elites of the younger generation. Whether it was subject of finance, politics, or martial arts, they had a good foundation, which, when coupled with the cruel compet.i.tion among the aristocratic family, indeed pushed them to the fore. They would absolutely not be an idiot.

One on one, Song Jia had endless confidence of Qin Fen.

One against ten, Song Jia really wanted to pick up the pen holder and drop it on Lin Liqiang’s head. He was Qin Fen’s friend, yet at the most crucial moment, why was he standing by? It was better to fight two against ten than one against ten.

“One against ten!? Just this kind of courage is worthy of praise.”

Suddenly, Song Zhenting’s gentle and magnetic voice came from behind Song Jia.

To Song Jia’s surprise, she found her father also looking at the courtyard below with a look on antic.i.p.ation as she turned her head around.

Song Jia never recalled her father ever watching a fight between the younger generation.

Even Lin Liqiang, who was praised as an all-rounder by her father himself did not garner her father’s attention when he fought with others.

However, today…

This son of martial G.o.d, who had never watched the battle between the younger generation was actually standing here, watching the battle. More importantly, a greatly interested look was clearly visible on his face.

“Has he gone crazy?”

This thought resonated in the minds of ten young martial artists at the same time. Qin Fen’s eyes burned with an intense battle intent once more. Also, a heated look flashed past by Qin Fen’s resolute face. As Qin Fen made his move, everyone immediately felt a tremor running through the courtyard like the recoil from firing a large caliber field gun [TLN: Basically a cannon from world war I era]. Before everyone could do anything, a silhouette suddenly whizzed through the courtyard like a bullet, rus.h.i.+ng straight into the group of nine young men.

Even the young martial artists who had seen far too many martial artists stronger Qin Fen were flabbergasted by Qin Fen’s action.

Who would have thought that a kid with no background, a young martial artist who should not have a robust foundation actually had reached such a realm?

Feeling the wind blowing on their faces, the ten young men unconsciously chose to retreat at the same time. At this instant, several movement techniques that rarely could be seen generally were cast in the courtyard, giving the impression that it wasn’t a fight but a hundred flowers in bloom.

Seeing the ten men retreat at the same time, the corner of Lin Liqiang’s lips rose into a disdainful smile.

Having their prestige uplifted by their families since childhood, Lin Liqiang could easily guess the mentality of everyone. They simply didn’t want to become cannon fodder for the others; if they had a decisive battle with Qin Fen in their moment of hot-headedness, it would only lead the others to take advantage of them in the end.

At the same time, the deep-seated pride in their hearts for being the scions of the aristocratic families also made them think that even if Qin Fen was extremely strong, his low status wasn’t enough to force them to take make a move. Such matters should be handed over to their subordinates or let their bodyguards handle it.

“Fools.”

At the same time, Song Zhenting standing by the window on the second floor also gave a very bad evaluation to the young men who chose to retreat.

But those young men could not hear Song Zhenting’s evaluation. They were all feeling smug from this method of saving their strength. They decided to launch a continuous attack at Qin Fen when his feet were glued to the ground.

This time, the ten young men had already scattered. Though Qin Fen wanted to fight ten men alone, he couldn’t do so. He immediately set his target on the young martial artists on his right side, at where three young martial artists cl.u.s.tered. It was easier to capture them than the others who were scattered about.

As Qin Fen smashed his foot on the ground, he had arrived before the three almost in the blink of an eye. Just this one step had completely flattened the ground within a radius of ten meters. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Qin Fen immediately blasted the Soaring Cannon. A series of firecrackers immediately swirled through the air as the aura of power seemingly shrouded all three inside it.

The hearts of three young elites were filled with an unprecedented regret at this instant.

They were all regretting the fact that they choose to retreat. Why did they choose to save their strength? This simple retreat had truly forced them out of the ring. They had unintentionally boosted Qin Fen’s momentum yet again.

Meanwhile, following their retreat, the aura was also suppressed.

A complex look flashed by the eyes of two young men standing on the left and right side as they employed their movement techniques and retreated again, leaving Oliver behind. They simply didn’t have any sense of loyalty.

He had a tall and robust body. He was only eighteen years old but his height was already breaking the two-meter mark. His arms were pretty thick, comparable to the thighs of ordinary people. He was like a bear with its fur shaved and wearing clothing.

Oliver understood that if he chose to retreat this time again, then Qin Fen would stick to him like a shadow. By then, the difference between their momentum would be like the two extremes. Qin Fen would keep on growing fiercer and fiercer. He would have an even more hard time laying any counterattack as he would have to focus on escaping.

In the time it takes for a spark to fly off a fling, Oliver already understood that he simply could not retreat! If he retreated anymore, he would surely be defeated!

Oliver had lived in a world filled ice throughout his life. A fierceness akin to that of a bear that was buried deep within Oliver’s body was completely forced out by the endless oppression from Qin Fen’s aura.

In the next moment, his eyes turned red as he suddenly activated the biochemical beast in his body. His muscles wriggled at a speed which was difficult to clearly see with naked eyes, while his jaws spread wide to the point that it might be even possible for him to devour the head of a baby.

An explosive sound suddenly broke out from Oliver’s abdomen, giving the impression that a grenade had exploded. Immediately after, his arm, that monstrosity of flesh doubled in size. Meanwhile, his right leg buckled down as his body turned slightly to the right side. At the same time, his right shoulder rocked down in the forward direction, followed by which his right arm that was held high in the air promptly came bearing down, meeting head-on with Qin Fen’s Soaring Cannon with the Divine Bear Slapping Tiger technique from the Five Animals Art.

BOOM!

As the two thick arms mercilessly clashed with each other, a powerful shockwave spread in every direction, blowing the dust from the ground into the air immediately.

In the next moment, blood crazily flew into the air as crisp sounds of bones breaking so continuously that it sounded like a submachine gun was firing rang out. Soon after, red blood burst out from every single pore on Oliver’s right arm like fountains.

To everyone’s surprise, Qin Fen’s Soaring Cannon had blasted Oliver’s Divine Bear Palm apart. Next, Qin Fen twisted his body as the muscles on his back rose, giving the impression of a turtle sh.e.l.l, before he smashed his back straight into Oliver’s abdomen.

Bowing to the blow, the robust Oliver, who seemed as strong as a bear, had his back arched like a bow before sounds of internal organs rupturing and bones breaking rang from his abdomen once more. Immediately after, blood came spurting out from his mouth and nose. Like someone having hit by a car, his figure flew a couple meters away before he was gently stopped by Butler Hou’s palm.

Oliver too was a member of a respected family from Russia. If he was left to his own measures, he would have ultimately smashed into the st.u.r.dy wall at the back.

If Oliver was in his heyday, cras.h.i.+ng into the st.u.r.dy wall naturally would not have posed any problem to him. However, the true energy surrounding his body had completely dissipated. One-fifth of his bones had already crushed. He had already pa.s.sed out; he was completely powerless to defend himself. If he crashed into the wall, then, the only outcome for him was death.

Although Song Family was not afraid of Oliver’s family, when all was said and done, it was still better to avoid problems whenever possible. As the butler of the Song Family, it was within reason for Butler Hou to deal with it. Butler Hou, without unleas.h.i.+ng his strength completely, easily received the completely defeated Oliver.

In the blink of an eye, the powerful Oliver who was known to be as strong as a Bear had suffered grievous injuries and pa.s.sed out. He was completely powerless to fight.

From Qin Fen’s Soaring Cannon, even Song Zhenting could see how powerful Qin Fen’s conception was! After the Dragon Prajna Art had entered the ranks of five star, if Qin Fen was allowed to unleash all his strength, he would possess the strength of an elephant!

What kind of strength does an elephant possess?! It had a strength that could crush a bear to death with just a stomp!

The Soaring Cannon cast with the strength of an elephant, Qin Fen’s strength had boosted to a whole new level. Not to mention a bear, even the largest brown bear could similarly be killed!

In just an instant, when Oliver was at a disadvantage, he should have saved his aura and energized the biochemical beast at lightning-fast speed to a.s.sist. Then, his reaction should have been simply astonis.h.i.+ng. His agility would absolutely not have been like a Bear but rather like a Monkey.

However, it was simply too late for him to do anything. More importantly, there had been too big of a gap between their strength.

Oliver was only at the four-star peak. Also, he hadn’t broken through to the early five-star stage of meteor-level. Whereas Qin Fen had already entered the ranks of five-star, and at peak of five-star at that!

The biochemical beast was simply unable to compensate the gap between the strength as it had been just energized and wasn’t able to unleash its strength completely.

Whether it was aura or strength, Oliver held no advantage. It was right and proper for him to be defeated. Only, it was completely beyond all young martial artists’ expectations for him to be defeated so cleanly and thoroughly that it was too late for him to even cast his ultimate skills.

Five-star meteor-level expert!

In this instant, all the young men had to re-evaluate Qin Fen.

Since they had arrived here, everyone believed that Qin Fin was a four-star martial artist. Qin Fen’s Dragon Prajna Art was not exactly the same as the official release; it was too complex to memorize and appear to be confusing. For instance, it could hide one’s aura, making it impossible for ordinary martial artists to see through Qin Fen’s true strength.

At this moment, the eyelids of nine young martial artists started twitching at the same time. They didn’t have too much time to be in awe, for the man who had used fitness exercise to plummet Oliver had already…

BOOM!

A tremor ran through the ground! In the blink of an eye, Qin Fen’s dwindling aura swell once more as he took action before everyone else could. This time, the opponent he chose was a young black man standing farthest from him.

Qin Fen readied his Cannon Fist before slamming his foot into the ground as he took a large stride. Owing to which, every bit of true energy in his meridians was in ebullition! Qin Fen was like an ancient demon that was breaking out from its seal! With this one step, Qin Fen had traversed fifteen meters and was directly standing before the young black man!

As Qin Fen launched this long-distance attack, his body tore through the air, giving rise to whistling noise as if someone was blowing a sharp whistle.

The ground where Qin Fen was standing earlier had immediately sunk down like tofu pierced by two fingers before the hard slab was smashed into countless small pieces of rocks.

The strength of an elephant! Using Cannon Fist to release his strength was like explosives had been installed under Qin Fen’s foot. It was indeed too big! Even the slabs had first sunk down before cracking into pieces.

At the sight of incoming Qin Fen, the black man’s pupil constricted sharply.

In his eyes, this long-distance attack of Qin Fen truthfully looked like an after image. Even more so, the howling of wind ringing in his ear gave the notion that a crazed rhino was charging at him.

A tangible and intangible pressure gripped his heart, his heart started pounding at a crazy speed in the blink of an eye.

All this happened in less than a second, giving him no time to even think about it. He didn’t even have the time to think as to why a man with no background had such a robust foundation.

Even if he had seen many powerful experts, he never had the chance to see someone under five-star state play Hong Quan-like similar secret fist technique!

Nevertheless, having practiced using martial arts on instinct for many years, coupled with the vigilance due to seeing Oliver getting defeated earlier, he had long since energized his biochemical beast. In addition, he pulled out the pair of short sticks from his waist in the blink of an eye. Judging from the metallic noises made by the short sticks as he pulled them out of his waist belt, the pitch-black short sticks seemed to have been forged from pure iron!

Ahhh!

The black man let out an animalistic roar as he smashed the two sticks straight at Qin Fen’s head.

“Short sticks again, ha! It’s far worse than Wuxian’s.”

Facing the two oncoming short sticks, Qin Fen didn’t seem on planning on dodging them. He raised his palms and pushed them towards the oncoming short sticks. Grabbing the ends of the short sticks before they could strike his head, he gave them a twist like twisting the neck of a cow by its horns.

The two short sticks were immediately seized by Qin Fen before they were sent flying into two directions like darts. The two young martial artists who were coming to help hurriedly arched their waist sideways. The two iron sticks almost brushed past their noses. Immediately after, like an ax cutting through the wooden stakes, the two iron sticks were nailed into the wall. The other ends of the sticks made thrumming noises as they vibrated.

Having his sticks seized, the black martial artist had his wrist broken, which naturally drooped down. Just as the pain from having his wrist broken registered in the mind of the black martial artist, a foot stepped on his chest as Qin Fen somersaulted into the air before slamming into another young man.

The move of directly sending the black martial artist flying, while simultaneously tackling the other attacker with just a flip of his body once again made Butler Hou click his tongue in praise.

Many young martial artists could execute a move with such finesse.

However, connecting one move with the other so naturally was very difficult.

Especially the fitness exercise like Arhat Fist. It was even more difficult!

In the time it took for a spark to fly off a fling, Qin Fen had eliminated two young men. Meanwhile, the other martial artists used this instant to completely energized the biochemical beasts within their bodies one after another. At the same time, they quickly gathered around. Qin Fen coming in so hard and abruptly had indeed exceeded their expectations.

Having landed on the ground with a loud thump like a thousand pound stone had fallen on the ground, Qin Fen turned his gaze at the young martial artists, who had completely energized their biochemical beasts. Having noticed that their arrogant look had been replaced with an extremely cautious look, the corner of his eyes and lips rose high as a smile appeared on his lips like he was overlooking the crowd of common people.

At this moment, these young martial artists of outstanding origins who seemed to the prideful sons of heaven, in many people’s eyes, no longer remained prideful sons who could look down at the common folks aloofly.

At this moment, Qin Fen too no longer remained as an insignificant character that they could overlook.

After two young martial artists had been taken out in an instant, the status of both sides had quietly undergone a huge change.

Qin Fen had now become a n.o.bleman looking down on the crowd, while they had turned into the peasants who could only reluctantly look up to Qin Fen.

On the second floor, Song Zhenting furrowed his brow as a faint dignified look appeared on his face. When Qin Fen seized the iron sticks with bare hands, he wasn’t just employing the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, he seemed to be executing the other art as well!

Golden Bell s.h.i.+eld!? Iron Mantle!? Unbreakable Diamond Body!? Or is it some other defensive mystical arts!?

This time, Song Zhenting was truly shocked by Qin Fen’s performance. There had never been any young man who could repeat the same exercise twice before Song Zhenting without being seen through!

Or to say that there had never been any young man who did not have his exercise seen through by Song Zhenting just by executing his exercise once.

But Qin Fen, this young man, who appeared to have no background from the reports, actually had prevented Song Zhenting from seeing the essence of his defensive mystical art, and twice at that..

Song Jia, on the other hand, heaved a long deep breath in relief. Qin Fen’s performance was truly too great! These scions who considered themselves to be above everyone else had taken the initiative to gather around.

“Next… it should be more interesting.” A faint gleam flashed past Song Zhenting’s eyes.

As Qin Fen gazed upon his opponents, all of whom had energized their biochemical beasts, Qin Fen secretly took a deep breath. This lineup was simply too great!

Eight men! Seven of whom had mobilized their biochemical beasts! Furthermore, some of them had even achieved level two fusion with their biochemical beasts!

Four-star martial artists weren’t terrifying. Those who were really terrifying were the four-star martial artists who had achieved level two fusion with their biochemical beasts. Their strength was no worse than the five-star martial artists with level one biochemical beast.

The only person who didn’t use the biochemical beast was Ge Bing, who was quietly standing among the crowd with his arms crossed around his chest, giving the impression that he was a Crane standing among Chickens.

Facing seven martial artists with their biochemical beasts energized, Qin Fen didn’t dare show the slightest bit of carelessness. He immediately activated his G.o.d-Demon Body!

Countless phantom meridians within his body started to expand as the true energy started raging like a river. Next, gathering this raging true energy, he pointed at the remaining eight young men. “Now, all of you can come together.”
