Chapter 1132: Contest of Strength

Outside the Mountain and Seas Zone, Highsage Shenwei sighed; this was the end. This kid had been able to defeat Yōu Qi by working together with his tamed beast, but that was only because Lu Yin had managed to target Yōu Qi’s weakness. However, truth be told, when it came to the Mavis family, despite the passage of so many years, not even Highsage Shenwei had found any of their weaknesses.

Mu En glanced at Lu Yin, but then he quickly stopped paying attention to the youth as the old man refocused on Shang Qing and Xia Jiuyou. This was a fight between the Tri-Yang Technique and the Nine Clones Secret Technique. These two battle techniques were not from the same era, and they were finally clashing in this generation.

Within the Mountain and Seas Zone, atop a golden screen, Lu Yin pursed his lips. “Actually, when their fights finish, there’ll be five people left, or maybe even only four. There’s no need for us to fight.”

Lu Yin truly really did not want to fight right now, as he had no confidence in his chances. Yuhua Mavis was the Mavis family’s Treeheart Descendant, and just her title sounded very impressive. In the past, he had relied on the Cosmic Art to gain access to the Daynight clan’s inheritance stone and its corridor of inheritance, but Lulu had also been able to do so. Back then, Lulu had only been a Melder, but she had already been able to control an Explorer-realm tortoise. Lu Yin would never forget that sight for the rest of his entire life. Even though Lulu’s performance in the trial on Earth had not been excessive, Lu Yin would never forget the apprehension he held towards the Mavis family’s power.

Additionally, he needed money to cultivate efficiently, so subconsciously, he had always felt that whoever possessed great wealth would undoubtedly be powerful. The Mavis family was definitely the wealthiest power in the universe, which made Lu Yin panic slightly.

Across from him, Yuhua Mavis smiled. “Let’s have a duel. I’ve been very curious about Lulu’s classmate. Since you were able to defeat Yōu Qi, we’re at the same level.”

Lu Yin was left speechless. “I’m still a bit lacking. How about next time? Or at least after I break through to the Hunter realm?”

Yuhua Mavis chuckled. “There’s no need. This is a rare opportunity. I’ve heard your strength is quite impressive.”

Lu Yin was at a complete loss. “Lulu and I are classmates, and we actually have a very good relationship.”

Yuhua Mavis blinked. “My relationship with Lulu is also very good.”

Some of the onlookers were left speechless; this was embarrassing to watch, as Lu Yin was being too terrified.

Black and White hid their faces behind their hands.

Lan Si coughed; Lu Yin could not be blamed for such behavior. After all, he was just a Cruiser.

Highsage Shenwei felt humiliated. Bastard! Don’t act scared even if you can’t beat someone!

Xia Meng looked at Lu Yin, surprised. “He’s able to give and take. Not a bad child.”

Highsage Shenwei’s eyes lit up. “Yes, flexibility in different situations is a tradition of our Eversky Island. Little Meng, do you like it?”

A nearby elder started ridiculing, “If Highsage Grandmaster knew that you said that just now, he might very well beat you.”

Highsage Shenwei pursed his lips.

Within the Mountain and Seas Zone, no matter what Lu Yin said, Yuhua Mavis still started moving across the golden screen and began attacking him.

Lu Yin did not want to fight, but since his opponent had already arrived, he was not willing to simply admit defeat. Even if he was wary of Yuhua Mavis, he would not be careless when it came to defending himself.

It was quite frightening to watch Yuhua Mavis approach. She stepped across the sky with bare feet, but flowers bloomed wherever she passed, which intimidated many people. However, Lu Yin’s battle record was not bad either, and he had been able to kill Enlighters as a Limiteer. Thus, he was able to disregard many extraneous details once he started trading blows with an opponent.

Bang!

A loud sound startled many people, and they all jumped in surprise. Yuhua Mavis had leaped down from the highest part of the golden stage and punched at Lu Yin. This attack only contained pure, physical strength. Just as she had said, she intended to test Lu Yin’s strength.

Lu Yin matched her back with his own pure force.

Fist met fist, and the shockwaves of the impact tore through the void and caused spatial fractures to spread everywhere.

In an instant, Qiu Shi, Starsibyl, Shang Qing, and Xia Jiuyou all had their attention diverted.

The physical might that each side had just used was rather excessive. The strength of the Mavis family members went without saying, as the entire universe had heard of their overwhelming strength. However, not many in the Neoverse had heard of Lu Yin’s physical might before.

Lu Yin and Yuhua Mavis met each other with raw physical punches, and they each took a few steps back, which stunned quite a few people watching. Was this person actually able to contest Yuhua Mavis in terms of physical strength?

Lu Yin stabilized himself and looked over at Yuhua Mavis. He clenched his right fist; his knuckles had already turned red. This woman was actually this overbearingly strong.

Across from him, Yuhua Mavis also looked up with astonishment on her face. She then smiled. “It’s no wonder why Lulu said that you’re very strong. Again!”

She charged back at Lu Yin with another punch.

She was a girl who used her fist as her weapon, but this was nothing unusual. This was simply how every Mavis family member fought.

Whenever the Mavis Treeheart Descendant fought against others, she had always only ever manipulated her green grass, but she behaved differently when facing Lu Yin. This was because Lu Yin’s strength had truly piqued her interest; how could someone from the Outerverse be so powerful?

Lu Yin unsealed a grain of Fatesand and unleashed another punch.

Bang!

The air itself trembled as visible ripples spread out from the impact site.

Yuhua Mavis’s eyes brightened. “Again.”

Lu Yin diverted his second grain of Fatesand and unleashed another punch.

Bang!

Ripples spread from the impact of their fists again, and these ripples even affected Qiu Shi and Starsibyl. The two women countered the might of these ripples with their Enlighter-realm star energy, but their star energy was still destabilized by the aftershocks of this physical confrontation.

Yuhua Mavis then unleashed her third punch.

Lu Yin’s eyes went wide, and he shifted his third grain of Fatesand to release his full strength in this next punch.

Bang!

Another loud bang shook the air, and this one even attracted Shang Qing and Xia Jiuyou’s attentions.

Even though the other fights were all interesting, the match between the Tri-Yang Technique and the Nine Clones Secret Technique was the main focus. However, the battle between Lu Yin and Yuhua Mavis had become too rowdy to be ignored. A physical brawl was the most intense way to fight, and more importantly, it had been many years since anyone had challenged a Mavis family member in a contest of physical strength. Lu Yin was the first in a long time, and he was even challenging a Treeheart Descendant at that.

Even Highsage Shenwei and the other elders were quite curious as to how far Lu Yin could push Yuhua Mavis.

Yuhua Mavis had never even considered that Lu Yin might be able to take her fourth punch. “Again!”

Lu Yin gritted his teeth. He had already used his full strength, but when he looked ahead, he saw that another one of Yuhua Mavis’s punches was approaching him. It was yet another mass of pure physical force that was inexplicably overbearing. Lu Yin’s nine lined battle force shot into the sky as he punched back in retaliation. There was a tremendous boom, and the two once again retreated in unison.

Yuhua Mavis’s eyes flashed. No more physical strength? He reinforced his punch with nine lined battle force this time.

She thought about this as she fiercely charged forward once again. Once again, she thrust forward with a very simple punch, but the strength behind this attack was so massive that even the void was suppressed, making it very difficult for Lu Yin to dodge. However, he did not want to dodge—he had never lost to anyone in terms of strength before, and he did not want to be suppressed by Yuhua Mavis here.

Of course, Lu Yin had already lost in terms of pure physical strength, but he still had his battle force, the Overlaying Stacks Path, and even Truesight. He did not believe that Yuhua Mavis could defeat him with just a simple fist.

Yuhua Mavis’s control of her strength had already reached perfection. No matter how much power Lu Yin unleashed by combining his monstrous physical strength with his nine lined battle force, the power of her attack always happened to be slightly superior. Lu Yin was forced to use an even greater strength to endure her attack; otherwise, he would be defeated.

Her style of quickly closing-in and suppressing him with her raw strength left him with no opportunity to be distracted, and his mind was stretched taut by the battle tension.

When he met this punch, Lu Yin’s arm released the Overlaying Stacks Path, and he instantly unleashed a full 170 Stacks. His punch blasted out, accompanied by his nine lined battle force.

Yuhua Mavis unleashed a punch. Bang! Another loud boom rang through the air.

The strength from the Overlaying Stacks Path continuously exploded forth, surprising Yuhua Mavis. Her eyes contained an unusual glint of excitement as well as a powerful battle intent. She held up both fists and exchanged glances with Lu Yin. “Again!”

She unleashed an even greater strength, actually managing to overpower the strength of 170 Stacks and forcing Lu Yin back.

Lu Yin took ten steps back and stared at her in disbelief. This woman was a monster!

“Seventh Bro, this woman is too much of a freak!” The Ghost Monkey was horrified.

On the other side, Yuhua Mavis dashed forward yet again. “You’ve taken six of my punches head on, which is something that nobody in my generation has ever done before! Lu Yin, I admire you.”

Admiration was on her lips, but her body remained honest as she launched yet another punch at Lu Yin. The moment this fist was released, the void struggled to endure its power, and Shang Qing and the others grew nervous from the power they felt.

Lu Yin gritted his teeth, and his pupils transformed into runes as he activated Truesight to erase some of this punch’s rune lines.

Yuhua Mavis’s punch had definitely exceeded a power level of 300,000, but its power level was lowered to around 200,000 after Lu Yin used his Truesight. He then seized advantage of this opportunity to strike back with his own fist. It was imbued with both his nine lined battle force and Overlaying Stacks, the same punch as before.

Yuhua Mavis noticed that the strength of her attack had waned, and she smiled softly as her fist continued forward.

Bang!

The shockwave tore through the region, and the void shattered like lightning bolts that streaked out in all directions.

These two were clearly only smashing their fists together, but each collision left countless onlookers stunned.

Just as Yuhua Mavis had said, nobody in her generation had ever been willing to trade punches with her before. Lu Yin was the first.

Seven fists! He had actually matched her punch for punch seven times.

Lu Yin was knocked back once again. The bones in his right fist were already on the verge of shattering, and blood dripped down from his body onto the golden screen. He stared at Yuhua Mavis; this woman was a true monster.

Yuhua Mavis looked at Lu Yin with great appreciation. “You’re already at your limit. So seven punches is your limit. Lulu was right—your strength is indeed impressive.”

Lu Yin shook his head and smiled bitterly, “In terms of strength, I was only able to take on the first four. I basically cheated to match the next three.”

Yuhua Mavis smiled. “Competing with my Mavis family in terms of strength is just looking for trouble. Our strength is basically our innate gift, so what you did can’t be considered cheating, as I’m using my innate advantage against your disadvantage.”

These words sounded strange to Lu Yin, as ever since he had become a Melder, his physical strength had always been a point of pride for him. In fact, it was the basis of his battle style. But at this moment, someone was actually telling him that his strength was lacking, which sounded like a joke when he thought about it. Still, the facts could not be changed.

“It’s no wonder why she’s from the Mavis family. Seventh Bro, stop competing with her in terms of strength,” the Ghost Monkey said.

Lu Yin also felt that this was true, and he felt that trying to compete with strength was just asking to be steamrolled.

“Let’s escape,” the Ghost Monkey suggested.

Lu Yin frowned. “What do you know?”

The monkey helplessly responded, “How do I put this? Although I’ve lost many of my memories, by reading various powerhouses’ journals, I’ve come to gain a bit of an understanding about the Mavis family. This family’s true innate gift is far more mysterious, and the Treeheart Descendant seems to have never been defeated. If you want to beat her, then you have to be a Hunter at the very least, or maybe even an Enlighter. You can only have a fair fight with her once you’re in the same realm. Otherwise, it’d be difficult to the point of impossibility.”

A powerhouse who was unrivaled within the same generation? Someone whom others should not even consider challenging without being in the same realm? Then how was it possible to even think of winning?

Lu Yin knew that victory was not very likely, and after seeing Yuhua Mavis’s relaxed expression, Lu Yin knew that he would be defeated. However, he had already reached this stage. Thus, he was reluctant to just back down, and he could not accept such an ending.

“Although your relationship with Lulu is good, this Astral Tower contest has nothing to do with you. This is something determined by fate, so you can leave now,” Yuhua Mavis said, sounding as though she was truly trying to help Lu Yin. Through Lulu and Grandini’s descriptions of him, Yuhua knew that Lu Yin held a strong desire for authority and that he had even been able to unite the Outerverse. His methods were ruthless, but when it came to his personal relationships, he was not emotionless. She appreciated such a person, so she did not want to attack him too severely.
