118: Violent aesthetics, invincible power!

“Old Guo, when did Li Canglan start learning Martial Skills?”

Director Zhou Bohao’s gaze was slightly solemn as he looked at Guo Kai beside him.

According to the information displayed.

Li Canglan’s exposure to Martial Skills was probably very limited.

Yet, he was able to achieve such a high level of proficiency.

This progress was somewhat astonishing.

“I’m not entirely sure of the specifics,”

Guo Kai thought for a moment, deciding to reveal a little information about Li Canglan.

“But I do know that this kid, Li Canglan, has a very close relationship with Jinghai Martial Arts Hall.”

The other principals had just shown some disdain.

It seemed Li Canglan was completely self-taught.

Allowing Guo Kai to pick up a bargain.

However, upon hearing about his connection with Jinghai Martial Arts Hall, their expressions immediately changed.

Guan Zhenyue, as a Five-Star Martial Master, was an existence far beyond them!

Director Zhou Bohao nodded thoughtfully.

If Guan Zhenyue had personally taught him.

While still difficult to accept, it was certainly more understandable than being self-taught.

After all, Guan Zhenyue was the Martial Arts Hall Master.

Perhaps his combat power wasn't top-tier among those of the same level.

But his skill in teaching Martial Skills was far superior to other Martial Masters of the same level.

In the Great Exam Plains.

Li Canglan did not linger after killing the Black Armored Scorpion.

Instead, he looked at Huang Yifeng,

“Lend me your hammer.”

Huang Yifeng looked puzzled but still handed over his imitation warhammer.

Taking the warhammer, Li Canglan’s gaze remained calm.

He swung the hammer in a full circle and slammed it heavily onto the ground!

The giant hammer shook the earth!

The powerful impact brought by the terrifying strength caused the yellow sand within dozens of meters to tremble like waves.

In the live stream, when Li Canglan smashed the ground.

All the viewers had puzzled expressions.

The strength of a Body Tempering Realm Martial Artist was extremely limited.

Even with a weapon, smashing it onto concrete would at most crack the surface.

Let alone loose sand like yellow sand?

But when the ground began to undulate in layers.

Everyone was stunned.

“Is this guy naturally gifted with Divine Power?”

“Perhaps his talent is immense strength?”

“Even a One-Star Warrior’s strength probably isn’t much more than this, right?”

Some viewers who had not yet become Martial Artists were even more bewildered.

Smashing the ground, what was he doing?

But in the next moment, they understood Li Canglan’s intention.

Black Armored Scorpions are generally gregarious creatures.

According to the nature of Demonic Beasts, a king of the tribe would surely emerge through battle to lead them.

Moreover, these Black Armored Scorpions had clear objectives and decisive actions.

Evidently, the attack was launched under the command of a Black Armored Scorpion King.

With Li Canglan’s hammer strike, a Black Armored Scorpion King the size of a bull quickly flew out from beneath the yellow sand.

The chilling black gleam reflected from its black armor was heart-stopping!

The moment it flew out, the Black Armored Scorpion King spun in the air.

Using its pincers as weapons, it smashed down towards the heads of Li Canglan and the others.

“It really is a Black Armored Scorpion King!”

Looking at that massive figure, let alone the viewers in the live stream who lived in peaceful times.

Even Zhang Ganchao and the others, who had fought their way here.

Couldn't help but feel their scalps tingle and swallow hard.

“The wind is strong, let’s go…”

Huang Yifeng’s words were cut short.

Li Canglan began to spin in front of everyone’s eyes.

“What is he doing?”

Those who had seen combat had never seen someone spin in circles during a fight.

The next instant, the iron hammer in Li Canglan’s hand flew out.

That iron hammer, like a cannonball fired from a tank, shot out rapidly towards the Black Armored Scorpion King in the air.

One could even faintly hear the sound of a sonic boom.

Bang!

The iron hammer and the Black Armored Scorpion King’s pincers collided with a thunderous roar.

Crack!

The sound of bones shattering followed.

Amidst everyone’s shocked expressions, the iron hammer, with an unstoppable momentum, forcefully broke the Black Armored Scorpion King’s pincers!

Immediately after, it crushed the Black Armored Scorpion King’s head.

The Black Armored Scorpion King’s body was even split in two by the iron hammer.

It broke into two halves and crashed to the ground.

Green, putrid blood gushed from the severed parts.

Gulp.

Huang Yifeng and the others were dumbfounded.

Looking at the iron hammer that crashed to the ground with a bang in the distance, crushing an innocent Demonic Beast into a pulp.

Huang Yifeng’s pupils dilated even more.

“What… what kind of strength is this?”

But looking at him, Li Canglan still seemed nonchalant.

Yet the strength he exerted probably exceeded his own by dozens of times!

Using a weapon and merely picking it up require completely different levels of strength.

Someone with a little fitness experience can do sets with a 10kg dumbbell.

The greater the strength, the larger the dumbbell used during training.

For exercises like bench presses and squats, fitness enthusiasts can even lift hundreds of pounds.

But if they were to use weapons, carrying a sword weighing a single digit would be their limit.

Once the weight is too great, it’s impossible to wield it as if it were an extension of their arm.

In the era of universal high Martial Arts, although their bodies were strengthened.

Before becoming a Martial Artist, their strength was still within a normal range.

For example, Huang Yifeng’s imitation warhammer only weighed 20kg.

For people from the Common Era, it would be too exaggerated to use as a weapon.

But for Huang Yifeng, it was just right.

However, being able to use it handily doesn’t mean being able to use it as… as Li Canglan did.

Domineering!

It wasn’t just Huang Yifeng.

The live stream descended into chaos the moment the warhammer dismembered the Black Armored Scorpion King.

“Holy cow, this is the violent aesthetic of my dreams!”

“One force can overcome ten skills!”

“There’s no enemy that one hammer strike can’t solve; if there is, then use two hammer strikes!”

“Alas, I am uncultured, but ‘holy cow’ gets me everywhere!”

Some junior students who hadn't yet participated in the Martial Arts Great Examination.

Even took Li Canglan as their benchmark and role model.

“Next year, I must also make a splash like Senior Li!”

“This isn’t just a dark horse emerging; it’s a Dragon!”

“Upstairs, please elaborate, where is there a Dragon…”

On the rostrum.

Including Director Zhou Bohao, all the leaders.

Were more than satisfied with Li Canglan.

“In my opinion, this Li Canglan is very suitable for our Hanghai Martial Arts Academy.”

Director Zhou Bohao wore a gentle smile,

“Directly invite him to join Hanghai Martial Arts Academy with the treatment of a seed student.”

Hearing this, Guo Kai beside him burst into joyous laughter.

Counting Li Canglan and Xie Tengfei.

Their First Academy would produce two seed students for Hanghai Martial Arts Academy this year.

This was a tremendous honor for First Academy of Luofeng City!

“Vice Principal Lin Jiaming is most skilled in Body Refining, and he will surely be very pleased with Li Canglan.”

Upon hearing this sentence, on the rostrum.

A chorus of gasps could be heard.
