160: Chapter 160 has been upgraded! Zhao Gang, don't run away! Hold on a little longer!

The referee's voice had just fallen.

Zhao Gang moved.

No.

To be precise.

He didn't move.

He just stood in place.

He closed his eyes.

And then—

"Boom!"

An extremely terrifying invisible force exploded from Zhao Gang's body.

The air in the entire arena instantly became extremely heavy.

Everyone felt that pressure.

Even though they were separated by six layers of protective shields.

The people in the audience seats still felt a momentary difficulty in breathing.

"S-Rank Talent—Hundred-Fold Gravity!"

Zhao Gang opened his eyes.

He spat out two words in an extremely low voice.

"Take it."

The gravity field instantly covered the entire arena.

At this moment, Lin Fan's body withstood pressure one hundred times his own body weight.

From the top of his head to the soles of his feet.

From skin to bone.

From muscle to internal organs.

Every single cell was being squeezed simultaneously.

An ordinary Level 4 Grandmaster would suffer bone fractures within three seconds under this kind of pressure.

They would kneel to the ground in ten seconds.

They would surrender in thirty seconds.

But Lin Fan—

He stood in place.

Motionless.

The system notification sounds rang frantically in his mind.

[Ding! Detected that the host is under continuous gravitational pressure!]

[Uniform pressure applied to the whole body! Calculating damage per second!]

[Defense + 35!]

[Defense + 35!]

[Defense + 35!]

[Bone density increased!]

[Muscle fibers strengthened!]

[Internal organ Defense coefficient increased by 0.3%!]

As Lin Fan's body endured the gravity, it was being frantically converted and strengthened by the system.

That feeling—

It was extremely satisfying.

It wasn't the kind of satisfaction from being punched and sent flying.

It was the satisfaction of every part of his body being massaged at the same time.

Uniform.

Continuous.

With no blind spots.

Lin Fan closed his eyes in extreme enjoyment.

"Mmm."

"The pressure is not bad."

He actually made such a sound on the arena.

The expressions of the entire audience were extremely twisted.

The Ministry of Education official on the rostrum almost dropped their teacup.

This is the finals!

The national finals!

Can you be serious!

Seeing Lin Fan had no reaction, Zhao Gang frowned extremely slightly.

Hundred-Fold Gravity.

Even an ordinary Level 5 Martial King couldn't hold out for too long.

This guy was standing extremely steadily.

Zhao Gang did not hesitate.

He flipped his palm.

"Increase pressure."

"One hundred and fifty fold."

The gravity field instantly surged by fifty percent.

Lin Fan's body noticeably shortened by two centimeters.

But it was only two centimeters.

Spiderweb-like cracks appeared beneath his feet.

The black gold rock shattered under his soles.

But his body still stood tall.

The system notification sounds became even more frantic.

[Defense + 50!]

[Defense + 55!]

[Defense + 48!]

[Bone density significantly increased!]

[Internal organ Defense coefficient increased by 0.8%!]

[Warning! The pressure currently endured by the host has exceeded the limit of a peak Level 4 Grandmaster!]

[Host physical condition: Extremely good.]

The corners of Lin Fan's mouth curled up in extreme happiness.

He opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Gang.

"Brother Zhao Gang."

"One hundred and fifty fold already?"

"Is that it?"

"I thought it would be more intense."

"What about that three hundred fold of yours?"

"Didn't they say your limit is three hundred fold?"

"Give me three hundred fold."

"One hundred and fifty fold isn't even enough to get between my teeth."

The whole venue exploded again.

The live stream comments exploded.

The comment section exploded.

All social media exploded.

"Lin Fan is asking for more pressure under one hundred and fifty fold gravity!"

"This guy is really not human!"

"Zhao Gang: ??? Does my opponent have a problem?"

"Hilarious. Being pressed by Hundred-Fold Gravity and still haggling."

Zhao Gang's expression finally changed.

It was extremely subtle, but it had indeed changed.

His brows furrowed even deeper.

One hundred and fifty fold gravity.

The captain of the Southern Border Martial Arts University had collapsed in thirty seconds.

This person was standing there like nothing was wrong, and even complained it wasn't enough.

Zhao Gang was silent for three seconds.

Then he made a decision.

"Two hundred fold."

The gravity field surged again.

This time, Lin Fan's body finally had a more obvious reaction.

His knees bent slightly.

The black gold rock beneath his feet shattered over a large area.

The entire arena was trembling.

The surrounding air was extremely distorted.

Even the light became abnormal.

Xia Wanqiu clenched her fists nervously in the waiting area.

"Brother Fan."

Her voice was extremely soft; only Murong Yan could hear it.

The corners of Murong Yan's mouth curled up slightly.

"Don't worry."

"Look at his expression."

"He's enjoying it."

Indeed.

Lin Fan's expression at this moment was extremely enjoyable.

The system notification sounds were no longer just ringing; they were flooding the screen.

[Defense + 80!]

[Defense + 85!]

[Defense + 90!]

[Defense + 75!]

[Bone density breakthrough increased!]

[Muscle strength breakthrough increased!]

[Internal organ Defense coefficient increased by 2.1%!]

[Detected that the host's Defense experience is accumulating rapidly!]

[Current Defense Level: LV42 (142000 / 150000)]

[Need 8000 more experience for LV43!]

Lin Fan was extremely excited inside.

Only two minutes, and he had already farmed seven thousand experience points.

The efficiency of two Hundred-Fold Gravity was more than ten times higher than being beaten by someone.

Because the gravity field applied pressure to the whole body simultaneously, it was equivalent to trillions of cells in his entire body receiving attacks at the same time.

The conversion efficiency far exceeded any single-target attack.

This was the reason he was looking forward to Zhao Gang.

It wasn't to win the fight; it was to obtain the most efficient leveling method.

"Brother Zhao Gang!"

Lin Fan was actually still able to speak under two Hundred-Fold Gravity, and his voice was extremely loud.

"Two hundred fold!"

"It feels much better than one hundred and fifty fold!"

"But it's still lacking a bit!"

"What about that three hundred fold of yours!"

"I've calculated it!"

"Three Hundred-Fold Gravity pressing me for four minutes!"

"And I can level up!"

"Help me out!"

"Help a brother out!"

The corners of Zhao Gang's mouth finally twitched.

This was the first time since his debut that he had encountered an opponent who was still urging him to increase the intensity while being pressed by a gravity field.

This was unscientific.

This was unreasonable.

What on earth was this person?

"You want three hundred fold?"

Zhao Gang finally spoke.

His voice was extremely low and cold.

Lin Fan nodded extremely happily.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"Three hundred fold!"

"Please, Big Brother Zhao Gang!"

"Just consider it a good deed!"

Zhao Gang closed his eyes.

His body began to emit an extremely intense gray aura.

That was the ultimate form of the S-Rank Talent "Hundred-Fold Gravity."

Breaking through the limit of one hundred fold, entering the realm above two hundred fold.

Every increase of fifty fold would exponentially increase the burden on the user.

Three hundred fold was Zhao Gang's absolute current limit.

After using it, he would need to rest for at least three days to recover.

But now, he didn't care anymore.

He wanted to let this pervert wearing fluorescent green know what true gravity was.

"Three hundred fold."

Zhao Gang opened his eyes.

His pupils turned gray.

"Gravity Limit—Three Hundred Fold Sky Pressure!"

"Boom—!"

The entire arena shook violently.

The six layers of protective shields all let out ear-piercing alarm sounds simultaneously.

The outermost protective shield developed cracks.

The black gold rock of the arena collapsed over a large area.

With Zhao Gang as the center, in an area of two hundred meters, the gravity reached three hundred times the normal value.

Lin Fan's body was really pressed down this time.

His knees bent by nearly thirty degrees.

His soles sank directly into the ground.

The black gold rock shattered into powder beneath his feet.

His spine emitted extremely dense cracking sounds.

Every bone in his body was enduring extreme pressure.

But—he did not fall.

His knees were bent, but he did not kneel.

His body was lower, but he did not collapse.

With an extremely tenacious posture, he stood under three Hundred-Fold Gravity.

The system notification sounds had entered a state of complete madness.

[Ding! Detected that the host is enduring extreme gravitational pressure!]

[Triggering special calculation mode!]

[Defense + 150!]

[Defense + 160!]

[Defense + 145!]

[Defense + 170!]

[Bone density limit breakthrough!]

[Muscle strength limit breakthrough!]

[Internal organ Defense coefficient limit increased!]

[Current Defense Level: LV42 (148000 / 150000)]

[Need 2000 more experience for LV43!]

Lin Fan was extremely ecstatic inside.

Two thousand left!

A few more seconds!

Just—

"Continue!"

Lin Fan gritted his teeth under three Hundred-Fold Gravity and squeezed out his voice with extreme difficulty.

But in that voice, there was no pain, only—

"Don't stop!"

"Zhao Gang!"

"Don't f***ing stop!"

The whole venue was silent.

Two hundred thousand people.

Not a single one made a sound.

Everyone was looking at that fluorescent green figure on the arena.

Under three Hundred-Fold Gravity, with bent knees, gritting teeth, shouting "Don't stop" at his opponent.

This scene was extremely shocking, but everyone felt something was not quite right.

Zhao Gang's forehead was already covered in sweat.

Maintaining three Hundred-Fold Gravity consumed an extremely terrifying amount of his own energy.

His internal organs were suffering massive backlash.

But that person opposite—was still standing.

Was still shouting for more intensity.

For the first time in his life, Zhao Gang doubted his own talent.

Just at this moment, that extremely pleasant notification sound rang in Lin Fan's mind.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host!]

[Accumulated damage taken has reached the target!]

[Defense Level increased to LV43!]

[Physical strength comprehensively improved!]

[All attributes increased by 10%!]

The system notification sounds echoed in Lin Fan's mind.

Extremely pleasant.

Better than any music.

Lin Fan felt an extremely intense warm current erupt from his dantian, instantly flowing through his entire body.

Every bone was being reshaped.

Every muscle fiber was being strengthened.

Every internal organ was being reinforced.

That feeling—it was getting stronger again.

And the most direct change was—the three Hundred-Fold Gravity suddenly wasn't that heavy anymore.

At this moment, Lin Fan's bent knees straightened extremely slowly.

He stood up again from the thirty-degree bent state.

Straight and steady.

Under three Hundred-Fold Gravity, he stood as if nothing had happened.

"Bang!"

This sound was nothing else; it was Lin Fan's feet completely crushing the black gold rock beneath him.

Because his Defense Level had increased, his body density and weight had both increased.

Under three Hundred-Fold Gravity, he directly crushed two deep pits into the ground.

But he stood firm.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Gang's pupils contracted violently.

Just a moment ago, his knees were pressed bent, and now he was standing straight?

This was unreasonable.

This was completely unreasonable.

A human body couldn't suddenly become stronger in a few seconds.

Unless—he had completed some kind of breakthrough within these few seconds.

"Impossible."

Zhao Gang muttered to himself extremely lowly.

"Under three Hundred-Fold Gravity."

"No one can break through."

But the fact was right in front of him.

Lin Fan not only stood straight, but also moved his neck.

"Crack, crack."

Extremely crisp bone popping sounds.

Then he twisted his waist.

"Crack."

Finally, he raised his hands.

Under three Hundred-Fold Gravity, he stretched an extremely relaxed stretch.

"Huu—"

"Comfortable."

The whole venue was dead silent again.

Then,

"Holy f***!!!"
