1179 God's Physique
The whole place turned dead silent after the spectators witnessed what could only be described as puzzling.
Long Yanjun had clearly struck Yuan square in the stomach, but the person who got hit didn't even budge an inch, making the spectators feel as though they were just seeing things.
"That's one. You have two more free strikes. Take your time." Yuan said a moment later, breaking the silence.
Long Yanjun stared at Yuan with a dumbfounded face.
He gritted his teeth and said to himself, 'I don't believe it! He definitely did something to block my strike just now!'
Once the injury on his arm recovered, Long Yanjun prepared his second strike, taking much more time to prepare this time.
After gathering as much spiritual energy as he could into his body, Long Yanjun released a beastly roar before striking Yuan between his chest.
"Dragon Piercing Thrust!"
An even stronger force struck Yuan's body the next second, causing his body to slide back. However, Yuan did not physically take a single step back, and there was not a single discernible injury on his body.
As for Long Yanjun, his entire right arm was in shambles with his bones snapped and sticking out like some kind of horror scene.
"A-Are you sure you're not using a treasure?" Long Yanjun did not want to doubt Yuan's integrity, but he had no choice but to do so after seeing such puzzling results.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe spectators also couldn't help but think the same. Otherwise, the scene before them would not make any sense.
Yuan smiled and said, "If you think I am secretly using a treasure, you may search my body. I will even take my clothes off afterward."
Long Yanjun turned to look at the judge and nodded at him.
The judge nodded back before entering the stage and proceeding to search Yuan's body.
"He doesn't have anything on his body." The judge gave his answer shortly after.
Meanwhile, Yuan removed his clothes until he had nothing but his underwear covering his body.
Xi Meili could be heard taking a deep breath before gulping down her saliva when she saw Yuan's refined physique.
There were several other females watching, and they also had a similar reaction after seeing his perfect physique.
"I have never seen such a refined body before, and I know dragons who have tempered their bodies every day for over ten thousand years…" Someone there said.
"I think I have read an ancient scroll about a godlike body that defies all logic. If I recall correctly, the humans called it Perfect Physique. However, we call it God's Physique."
"God's Physique?! Are you for real?! He has a God's Physique?!" Although the dragons didn't recognize the term Perfect Physique, they were familiar with God's Physique, as that represented the peak of body temperament for a dragon.
"I doubt it's God's Physique. Perhaps it's something similar." Someone said, doubting such a claim.
"Nobody has achieved a God's Physique since the Primordial Era. There's no way a human of this era could possibly have it."
While the spectators argued whether Yuan had a God's Physique or not, Yuan said to Long Yanjun, "One more strike. I won't mind even if you use a treasure for the last free strike."
Long Yanjun gritted his teeth. While he knew that Yuan wasn't purposefully mocking him, he couldn't help but feel mocked.
Now that it had reached this point, and he was certain that he wouldn't get past Yuan's defenses with his bare hands, Long Yanjun retrieved a pair of massive golden gauntlets and wore them.
"Don't regret it now." Long Yanjun said as he stared at Yuan with a serious gaze.
"I'm ready whenever you are." Yuan smiled.
Long Yanjun released another loud roar, and scales started appearing on his skin.
Yuan raised an eyebrow after seeing this, as he has never seen anything like this before.
Before long, Long Yanjun's entire body was covered in purple dragon scales, and he even grew a tail. However, he still had a human-like figure.
"He actually transformed in a fight against a human! Long Yanjun must be feeling really pressured now!"
The spectators expressed surprise after seeing Long Yanjun's transformation.
While the dragons in the Ancient Dragon City prefer to remain in human form for convenience, it also limits their strength. However, they have the ability to transform at any time and enter a state like Long Yanjun currently.
While in such a state, usually referred to as a half-dragon form, their strength will increase exponentially, as they are essentially unsealing their powers.
Yuan could sense Long Yanjun's aura skyrocketing, and it felt like he was before an actual beast instead of a human now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAn excited smile appeared on Yuan's face as he wondered how powerful Long Yanjun would become in such a state.
Once Long Yanjun was prepared, he released his fist and his emotions, letting it fly towards Yuan's face.
DONG!
The impact was so powerful that it shook the entire platform, and Yuan was sent flying to the end of the stage, where he hit an invisible wall that prevented him from leaving the formation.
'There's no way he survived that.' Long Yanjun thought to himself, feeling relieved.
However, his heart dropped when he heard the spectators mumbling.
"No way…"
"How is he still standing?"
"He definitely has the God's Physique! I am convinced now!"
When Long Yanjun looked up, he could see Yuan standing there without even the smallest scratch on his pristine body.
"That's three. I will attack now." Yuan said in a calm voice as he approached Long Yanjun, who was too shocked to move.
After taking a deep breath, Yuan clenched his fist before striking Long Yanjun with Relentless Dragon Overwhelms the Nine Heavens.
BOOM!
The force from Yuan's strike was so powerful that it made Long Yanjun's body explode into a bloody mess.
"W-Winner— Yuan!" The judge announced the winner, but everyone was too shocked by what they just witnessed to even react.
