Chapter 133: Whetstone, Collapsing Mountain Palm (Seeking monthly tickets)

Yu Xinghan looked at Zhang Yu beside him, waved his hand, and said, "Then let's get started too."

"But before we begin our actual combat training, I have a request to mention."

"First request: during the actual combat training, we won't use any spiritual power; we'll drive our martial arts purely with physical strength to fight."

It was precisely because he had seen Zhang Yu's control over his body in the sports competition that Yu Xinghan had asked him to be his sparring partner.

Learning and absorbing the various techniques of physical control from him could be said to be his main purpose for having a sparring partner.

It was based on this reason that he proposed fighting with pure physical strength without using spiritual power.

Yu Xinghan continued, "Second request: during our actual combat training, whoever injures the other will pay the other's medical expenses."

Zhang Yu looked at him with a suspicious expression: "You little whelp, you're not trying to scam me, are you?"

It's not that Zhang Yu was overthinking; it was really that his impression of Yu Xinghan was... a wealthy person who was extremely stingy.

Yu Xinghan went on, "Don't think I'm trying to swindle you. This is to train defeating others without injuring them."

"You must understand that in the Kunxu realm, a true strong person can control every ounce of their strength, can defeat an opponent without having to pay a single cent. That should be the true purpose of actual combat training."

"I've watched your martial arts competition recordings—blood splattering everywhere, flesh flying everywhere—it's too crude, too uneconomical."

Yu Xinghan shook his head: "That's a lack of training in control."

Zhang Yu found it quite reasonable and couldn't help asking, "Did Senior Xinghuo teach you this too?"

Seeing Yu Xinghan nod, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Is it possible that old Xinghuo lost a lot of money from fighting in the past, so he emphasizes this when training disciples? And he even turned his disciple into a stingy fellow."

Meanwhile, Chu Qiuhe had, at some unknown time, arrived outside the training room door. Through the open door, he was observing what was happening inside.

Seeing the fierce fight between Song Hailong and Bai Zhenzhen, he sighed inwardly, "That woman Bai Zhenzhen really has not only made rapid progress in physical strength, but her actual combat ability has also risen accordingly."

"If I were to go up and fight her, I probably wouldn't last ten moves."

"In just two months, the speed of progress is terrifying."

"But rumor has it that both Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu were invested in by Senior Zhang Pianpian from the third year, becoming her dogs, and they underwent the modification of imitation demon tendons and muscles..."

Thinking of this, Chu Qiuhe felt a trace of longing.

"Damn it, I also want to be Senior Zhang's dog, driven by her to improve my scores!"

But Chu Qiuhe only dared to think about it, because he knew that if he even dared to voice such a wish, it would quickly spread to the third year, and then he'd be dragged into a corner and thoroughly taught a lesson by the third-year seniors.

After all, faced with Zhang Pianpian, who tops the rankings and is worth billions, at least eighty percent of White Dragon High School want to be her dog.

Even the third-year students can't snatch up such a good opportunity; how could Chu Qiuhe, a mere first-year student, even dream of it?

"I can't even get in line for a good opportunity, and these two just snatched it away?"

At this moment, looking at Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, Chu Qiuhe couldn't help revealing a trace of jealousy in his eyes.

Just then, the battle between Zhang Yu and Yu Xinghan formally commenced, once again drawing Chu Qiuhe's attention.

Yu Xinghan and Zhang Yu both walked toward each other, step by step closing the distance.

The next instant, accompanied by a bang, their arms collided violently.

And this collision was like a signal.

Along with the mutual impact of fists, palms, arms, elbows... and other body parts, one after another loud bang exploded in succession, like claps of thunder bursting inside the training room.

In the blink of an eye, both men's arms left a trail of afterimages as they fiercely clashed.

Outside the training room.

Chu Qiuhe was intently watching the battle between Zhang Yu and Yu Xinghan.

Suddenly he felt two people beside him—it was Number 35 Bear-man and Number 36 Wolf-man.

Seeing Chu Qiuhe's glance, they bravely said, "We also want to watch the fight between Big Brother Xinghan and Big Brother Zhang Yu."

Chu Qiuhe snorted. Since he had already punished the two just now, he did not stop their eagerness to learn.

At the same time, Yu Xinghan in the training ground grew fiercer with his attacks, especially as his figure began to circle Zhang Yu at high speed, like a raging storm, bombarding Zhang Yu from all directions.

Zhang Yu, on the other hand, stood firmly in place, like a small boat in a sea storm, giving the impression of being about to topple under the raging waves.

Xiong Ren exclaimed in astonishment, "Brother Xinghan is so strong! Just with his physical strength, the speed and power he unleashes completely overwhelms us. Is Brother Zhang Yu about to lose?"

"An ignorant fool." Chu Qiuhe snorted coldly. "Zhang Yu won first place in the physical competition precisely because of his understanding of strength and his mastery of force techniques. His ability to borrow force and redirect momentum is at the pinnacle among first-year students."

In Chu Qiuhe's eyes, Zhang Yu was far from a small boat; he was clearly a fortress reinforced with countless steel bars and concrete, as steady as Mount Tai no matter how fiercely it was bombarded from outside. At that moment, the fast-moving Yu Xinghan let out a long howl and said excitedly, "Not bad, not bad. It's been a long time since I've fought so satisfyingly. You really are much sturdier than Xiao Song."

"In that case, I'm going to go all out now."

Yu Xinghan looked at Zhang Yu as if admiring an exceptionally fine target.

He thought to himself, "Usually, when facing students of my grade, I worry about having to pay too much compensation, so I never dare to fight at full strength. But with this Zhang Yu's abilities, even if I go all out, he won't easily end up in the medical room, right?"

Thinking this, Yu Xinghan smiled slightly and said, "But don't worry, like I said earlier, if I injure you, I'll cover your medical expenses myself..."

The same Heavenly Martial Heart Refining Art operated in both of their eyes, causing their gazes to clash as if their individual fighting spirits were colliding in the air.

And after mentioning covering the medical expenses, the aura around Yu Xinghan suddenly changed.

In the next moment, the third eye in Yu Xinghan's mind fully opened, immediately granting him a 360-degree sensory perception of his surroundings.

Then the tentacles extending from that third eye suddenly tensed, instantly enhancing Yu Xinghan's ability to recruit strength from every muscle fiber, as if he had gained an additional nervous system.

Boom!

Yu Xinghan's palms carried a sound like a dragon's roar and an elephant's trumpet as he fiercely struck toward Zhang Yu.

In a single glance...

Before the palm even arrived, the air was madly shattered and pushed aside, bringing a suffocating sensation.

It was the Dragon-Elephant Mountain-Crushing Palm, now pushed to level 8 by Yu Xinghan!

This palm technique, which could be driven purely by physical strength, was a martial art created by a senior expert from a university's civil engineering department while observing elephant demons and dragons moving mountains and filling seas on a wild construction site.

The greatest characteristic of this palm technique was its imitation of the power of dragons and elephants—extremely fierce and violent, like a mountain torrent bursting forth or a tsunami crashing down.

Its essence lay entirely in exerting and releasing force, emphasizing overwhelming the opponent with pure power, an unstoppable force that explodes with full strength to smash every defensive measure to pieces.

At this moment, with Yu Xinghan's full strength highly recruited, the power of this palm already far exceeded the standard for first-year students.

Zhang Yu's expression was calm as he raised an arm to deflect the incoming palm force.

Bang!

With an extremely muffled, thunderous sound, their palms collided fiercely.

And with Yu Xinghan's third eye combined with the full-concentration state of the Heavenly Martial Heart Refining Art, every move Zhang Yu made to borrow and redirect force, every ripple of his muscles, became so clear and profound.

It was through this observation that he intended to quickly learn and imitate Zhang Yu's movements, to learn Zhang Yu's control and application of physical strength.

Yu Xinghan watched as his palm force flowed along Zhang Yu's muscles, which were like steel cables, and was transmitted downward...

He watched as Zhang Yu stepped back three times, each step hitting the ground with a thunderous boom, redirecting the palm force into the earth...

Yu Xinghan's eyes sparkled with brilliance, as if he were gazing at a priceless work of art.

"This kind of force control is... so beautiful."

"I want to learn from you!"

So his figure flashed as he immediately pursued, and another palm strike, carrying the sound of a dragon's roar and an elephant's trumpet, once again blasted toward Zhang Yu.

"Show me that one more time!"

At the same time, in the same full-concentration state, Zhang Yu observed every slow-motion move Yu Xinghan made, studied each of his techniques, and did his best to neutralize the attacks.

After a fierce exchange, Yu Xinghan felt the full-concentration state approaching its limit, and both of their stamina was no longer at its peak, their moves no longer perfect.

So Yu Xinghan stopped and said, "Let's rest a bit before continuing."

"If we're not at peak condition, the training effect won't be optimal."

Yu Xinghan sat down to the side, replaying the fighting process just now, recalling the various techniques Zhang Yu had demonstrated, striving to absorb and internalize them as nourishment for his own growth.

He thought to himself: "This Zhang Yu... truly is my best whetstone."

"Once I use different attack methods to learn all the techniques on him, and combine that with the growth rate of my physical strength, by the time we reach high school, no one will be able to surpass me in physical power."

Not far from Yu Xinghan, Zhang Yu, who had also sat down, looked at the Yu Shu floating before him.

Dragon-Elephant Mountain-Crushing Palm Level 0 (0/1, 4.96/5.0 physical strength, 4/5 level Dao heart)

Zhang Yu thought to himself: "Is this the palm technique Yu Xinghan just used?"

He casually looked it up online, then frowned: "The usage rights for this palm technique cost 200,000?"

"Damn... if I actually learned this technique, wouldn't I be giving him a training session for free, and before I've even earned much money, I'd have to shell out 200,000 first?"

But recalling the overbearing and fierce power when Yu Xinghan struck out with his palm, Zhang Yu felt a bit tempted.

Especially when he thought that this kind of martial art, which can be driven purely by physical strength, represents strong scalability and can be applied in all aspects, making it a high-quality foundational practice...

"Maybe I'll learn it in secret and not buy the usage rights for now? At worst, I just won't use it out in the open for the time being."

Zhang Yu was momentarily indecisive, but considering that he had not yet met the cultivation requirements for this technique, he set the matter aside for now.

Just then, Yu Xinghan, while opening his phone, asked: "That link I asked you to click last time—you haven't clicked it yet?"
