Chapter 42: Cultivating a Body Shape Resembling a Dragon
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang...
A series of whooshing sounds and collisions rang out almost simultaneously in the center of the arena.
Kuroki Gensai was completely focused, constantly making subtle adjustments to his direction, either dodging or blocking Li Yuan's relentless attacks.
Countless shockwaves erupted, stirring up vast clouds of dust within the arena. From a distance, it seemed as if even the air itself was constantly distorting!
As Li Yuan continued his attacks, Kuroki Gensai's expression grew increasingly solemn.
The speed of this opponent is simply too fast!
Even the "Thunder Heart Style," known for its speed, is completely incomparable to it.
From the start of the battle until now, although he has barely managed to withstand Li Yuan's attacks, he has not even had a chance to counterattack!
This is because he can sense that Li Yuan's current speed has not yet reached its limit!
This limit does not refer to the maximum speed that can be achieved when sprinting in a straight line, but rather the maximum speed that Li Yuan can fully control and move freely in battle!
"Such power, such speed, such skill..."
A fiery fighting spirit ignited in Kuroki Gensai's heart.
Isn't this the kind of opponent he longs for?!
call--
Suddenly, Li Yuan abruptly stopped, stopping twenty meters away from Hei Mu Xuanzhai.
"Your fundamentals are so solid, you could even say they're flawless and without any weaknesses!" he said, as he slowly moved his body, his bones cracking with a series of crisp popping sounds.
Kuroki Gensai didn't reply, but subtly adjusted his body, changed his stance, and took the opportunity to slowly regulate his breathing.
"If this keeps up, who knows how long this match will go on?" A glint of light flashed in Li Yuan's eyes. "So, let me show you..."
As he finished speaking, large plumes of white steam suddenly rose from his head and his exposed body, as if the temperature inside his body had suddenly increased.
The white vapor rose rapidly, but instead of dissipating, it gathered around Li Yuan, forming a white cloud several meters in diameter!
Seeing this completely illogical scene, the already incessant clamor from the audience suddenly became even more intense!
The sound was so loud that it even caused the entire venue to vibrate slightly!
However, Kuroki Gensai remained unaffected, continuing to gaze intently in the direction of Li Yuan.
In his deep and bright eyes, there was no wavering, only his belief in and determination to pursue martial arts!
The continuous hair and beard, when viewed from a distance, looked like burning black flames!
Just then, he suddenly heard Li Yuan's clear voice coming from within the white cloud:
"Practice until your body resembles a dragon, and you will forge the true spirit of heaven and earth."
"I am not a guest who stays in the human world forever; I roam freely throughout the four seas and the universe."
As the strangely rhythmic verses were recited, a series of loud "crack! crack! crack!" sounds suddenly rang out from within the white clouds.
Feeling the power rising within his body, Li Yuan's lips curled into a smile, and he suddenly shouted:
"Dragon's Spine, open!"
call--
The next moment, the white clouds suddenly began to churn and surge violently. With a sudden hurricane erupting from within, they vanished in an instant, revealing Li Yuan's figure.
The moment Kuroki Gensai saw Li Yuan, his pupils suddenly contracted!
As a martial arts master, his control over "distance" is extremely precise.
Li Yuan's height was originally 180 centimeters, that much is certain.
But now, Li Yuan, who appeared in front of him after the white cloud was blown away, was a full 188 centimeters tall!
And that's not all, he looks completely different!
If the original Li Yuan was shrouded in a mist, he seemed very mysterious and unfathomable.
Now, the mist surrounding Li Yuan seems to have dissipated somewhat, revealing his sharp and ferocious claws!
"This ancient Eastern country is indeed unfathomable..."
"Not only is the Wu clan, which has dominated the assassination world for over a thousand years, a branch that migrated to Japan from their main branch there, but even this young man is the same..."
In Kuroki Gensai's eyes, a raging flame ignited, and from his heart, yearning for the ultimate martial arts, surges of passionate blood erupted.
"My name is Kuroki Gensai. Please enlighten me!"
This time, Li Yuan was not as casual as before. Facing the old man before him, who was never satisfied and was determined to continuously climb the path of martial arts, he adopted the starting stance of the Dragon Fist:
"Dragon Fist Li Yuan, please!"
boom!
The next moment, Li Yuan's figure suddenly covered a distance of twenty meters and arrived in front of Kuroki Gensai!
It's as if time has been interrupted, or space has been displaced!
In an instant!
In the blink of an eye, Li Yuan, like an angry dragon emerging from the abyss, traversed a distance of twenty meters and arrived in an instant!
No one saw what kind of attack he launched, not even Kuroki Gensai!
His "first" strategy completely failed at that moment!
The next moment, Kuroki Gensai's body shot out like a human cannonball, traversing half the distance of the arena in the air, and crashed straight into the players' tunnel!
Although the result looked similar to Li Yuan's previous battle, unlike the Wakatsuki samurai, Kuroki Gensai did not relax his defense even after losing consciousness!
He fainted while standing!
"The match is over!"
"The victor is Li Yuan!"
Having learned from the experience of the first match today, the referee shifted his focus this time, so he immediately reacted and loudly announced the result of the match.
However, unlike him, most of the audience in the stadium at this moment, the last image left on their retinas was the scene of Li Yuan assuming the Dragon Fist starting stance, and they had no idea what had happened.
It wasn't until long after the referee announced Li Yuan's victory that his brain processed the subsequent information and realized what had just happened.
Finally, the first to speak was Katahara Sayaka.
Sitting in the commentary booth, she was so excited that her whole body turned bright red, and she kept twisting her hot body, shouting:
"The outcome is decided!"
"The ultimate winner of the Kengan final is—Li Yuan!"
Her voice transformed into a rolling wave of sound, emanating from the speakers throughout the venue, awakening the audience who were still somewhat bewildered and had just realized what had happened.
boom--
Instantly, the entire venue erupted in chaos!
Countless cheers, shouts, clapping, stomping, and other sounds came together to create a lively scene that shook the heavens and resounded through the sky.
Ultimately, all the unspoken words within the venue were condensed into a single, unified name:
"Li Yuan!"
"Li Yuan!!"
"Li Yuan!!!!!!!!!"
At this moment, Li Yuan's bones cracked, and he returned to his original height of 180 centimeters.
Feeling the enthusiasm of the audience, he slowly turned around and looked around, then raised his fist high!
