Increase In Strength

Executing Scorching Fury, the muscles in his arms quivered, growing hot rapidly as they oscillated in a particular frequency. His blood surged faster and faster, directing them according to what was written on the formula, his heart beat continued to rise until it reached its limit!

51 Cycle per minute

Without warning, he punched out!

Boom!

A soft booming sound echo, bounced off David's walls as a slightly visible heat waves could be seen surging out from his fists, the air distorted from the heat that emerged from his fist. But David wasn't satisfied with it. Since nothing had happened to the Black Iron puppet.

Not waiting for the euphoria to fade, he threw out a second punch, a third, a fourth, he continued to punch out using the Scorching Fury…

As David continued to execute the combat technique, the heatwave emerging from his fist became more and more visible with each fist thrown out.

If one were to look at David, one could see his stances becoming more and more refined as his fists proceeded to tear through the air. The heatwaves that were formally scattered and all over the place were becoming a bit more condensed around his fist compared to his previous punches.

Prosaic State in just two minutes!

From his normally 2 punches per 3 seconds, it gradually grew by the minute. If it were a normal punch, without the use of combat technique, any random Spryher in the institute could easily break the World record back on Earth.

But the activation of a technique takes a significant amount of time to circulate the blood and oscillate the correct frequency and also heartbeat. Everything must be right.

So in this situation, it was considered very good to execute a technique in 3 seconds when you just started training it.

Whoosh! Whoosh!! Whoosh!!!

David's punch got quicker and faster as the temperature in the room rose at a fast pace, he was like an angry beast, raining punches at the puppet like a mad beast in a swift but savage manner!

Sweat dripped down his forehead like rain while some were already evaporating in a slow pace due to the heat, but David didn't care, he continued executing Scorching Fury!

David's eyes flashed with a brilliant glow and without hesitation.

Ha!

David shouted, and then without caution, he took a large stride forward! His hearts that was beating as fast as a piston suddenly constricted, not even waiting for a second, his leg muscles shook and it expanded by almost four times it's previous size.

Whoosh!

Three-Fold Step!

But that wasn't all!

Scorching Fury!!!

His muscles burned as his blood suddenly grew very hot and painful! To ease his pain, his leg swept at the human shaped steel made of black iron - Black Iron human puppet, not far from him. He kicked with full force, releasing the energy threatening to burst out!

Boom!!!

An explosive sound thundered outwards. The air cracked with thunder as the earth shook like an earthquake!

Dense visible ripples of shockwaves and heat wave exploded out with terrifying force as steel shards shot out in all and every direction!

David's kick had crushed almost half of the steel's head. Scorched marks could be seen as it covered the remaining half of the black iron human puppet!

The hot temperature only melted a few scraps of iron at the edge of the human shaped iron puppet.

David's face paled and was immediately sent flying by a terrifying force, he was thrown to the ground, while panting loudly. He had exhausted all of his strength in that final attack.

"Hahaha"

David suddenly burst into laughter. He was very satisfied with his own accomplishments.

Finally, he finally had a trump card he could finally call his own. Scorching Fury together with Three-Fold Step. That combo was simply too terrifying.

He was certain that if he met Lu Feng right now and manages to catch him off guard with the move, even if Lu Feng has twice his previous strength, he would certainly be gravely injured if he tried to counter Scorching Kick.

But it was obvious he couldn't execute the move for more than three times or his veins and nerves would be scorched by the temperature. Even if he as extreme control over his body, there was nothing he could do to protect his organ.

If one day his body grew strong enough to withstand such usage and temperature, he could freely use it, but until then.

David clenched his fist tightly. He finally had the strength to protect himself, even if it was just from his classmates who are constantly chasing after his life and his position on the Rankings List. It was just the beginning though.

Although there are still a lot of new students that are stronger and more capable than Lu Feng, they wouldn't be interested in a position as low as the 7th place. The image of a female student suddenly flashed past his mind - Phyllida.

He didn't know how strong she would be right now but he could guess her strength should have surged by a lot but he wasn't going to underestimate himself. If he too was pushed to his limits, he could temporary gain the strength to fight back, but not without a heavy cost.

David then recollected circulating Three-Fold Step with his entire body. At that time, although he couldn't remember much of what had happened due to his anger. what he knew was that he had he sudden surge in strength.

What if he executed Three-Fold Step with his while body without regards and then simultaneously also executed Scorching Fury? The increase in strength would be devastating.

David suddenly shook his head his perception and his sensitivity of his body told him that he would certainly be the first person to die from internal heat if he tried doing that. He was beginning to trusts his instincts even more than he did himself.

Scorching Kick. That was what he named his the moves. Do not blame him, he has had a bad naming sense ever since he could remember, that might be the one thing which would rain constant on this life.

The next day, David stepped out of the hall and headed towards his next class which was actually combat lessons. He could walk there since there was more than enough time to get to the field before the lessons starts.

"Hey, David!" Dav turned his headed towards the person who called out his name.

Standing beside David as they continued to walk, Nihyuh smiled as he said "I didn't see you yesterday, did sometjing happen?"

Towards Nihyuh's question, Dav glanced sideways at Nihyuh' and was about to reply but he wierdly stopped.

Dav frowned as he took another glance at Nihyuh. Something flashed in his eyes for a second before it retreated afterwards.

Although it happened in a split second, but strangely, Nihyuh caught on. "Is there something on my face" he asked, running his face with his hands.

David retracted his gaze as he nonchalantly replied.

"There was, but the breeze blew it off already, so don't worry about it. And also, i was having a few problems with my Training Method but it's all good now. That was the reason why I was unavailable yesterday." Dav said. But not without stealing another glance at Nihyuh as his frown couldn't help but deepen. He could only hope that what his instincts told him was wrong.
