Chapter 4: The Collapsing Fist is Like a Mountain

"Wyatt, you..."

Three days later, Christina Lee was incredulous when she saw Wyatt Barnes again.

After a moment, she stretched out her delicate hands tremblingly, gently kneading Wyatt's arms...

As a martial artist in the Condensed Pill Realm, she instantly saw Wyatt's cultivation level:

Body Tempering Realm First Level!

Her son had finally completed the Body Tempering and became a martial artist!

Over these years, seeing Wyatt fail to complete the Body Tempering, his body becoming weaker and weaker...

She saw it in her eyes and felt anxious in her heart.

"Mom, why are you crying?"

Wyatt reached out to wipe Christina's tears away.

"Mom is okay. I'm crying because I'm happy."

Christina wiped away her tears and smiled.

The heart that had been hanging for several years finally relaxed.

Soon, she realized:

Her son's change had happened in just three days.

Such changes in three days were astonishing.

At this moment, she remembered the medicinal materials Wyatt had asked her to buy three days ago. Her beautiful eyes narrowed, and she had a thought.

Could it be...

"Wyatt, was the change in you because of the medicinal herbs I bought the other day?"

Christina asked the question that was in her mind.

"Yes, mom."

Wyatt nodded.

"Did you make the medicine yourself?"

Christina asked curiously.

Wyatt nodded again.

"Wyatt, what medicine did you make? And when did you learn to make medicine?"

Christina took a deep breath.

A thought flashed across Wyatt's mind.

The matter of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor was beyond belief.

Moreover, it was related to his past life, and it was hard to explain.

"Mom, I had a strange dream after Rudy Lee left me unconscious and severely injured last time. In the dream, an elder taught me a formula for a medicine."

He randomly found an excuse.

Then, Wyatt talked about the 'Seven Treasures Body Tempering Liquid', including its specific effects.

"It enhances the cultivation speed of Body Tempering Realm martial artists?"

Christina was shocked.

She had never heard about any medicine that could accelerate the cultivation speed of Body Tempering Realm, and the required medicinal materials were so common.

She was conscious that this formula was extraordinary.

According to her knowledge, Pill Medicine that boosts the cultivation speed of Body Tempering Realm existed. However, it could only be concocted by high-ranked alchemists, and the medicinal ingredients were extremely expensive and unaffordable for ordinary people.

"Wyatt, don't tell anyone else about the formula."

Realizing the value of the formula, Christina's first thought was to protect her son. She warned him with a serious face.

"Mom, I know. I will only tell you."

Wyatt smiled.

An orphan in his previous life, he really enjoyed the mother's love in this life.

"Good boy."

Christina also smiled, her smile captivating, bright, and charming.

"Wyatt, now that you have entered the Body Tempering Realm First Level, you can choose Martial Techniques from the family's Martial Pavilion."

"Okay, Mom, I will go and take a look."

Even though, with the memories of the Reincarnated Martial Emperor, he was not short of Martial Techniques, he still planned to go and have a look, just to fit in…

The Martial Pavilion was where the Lee Family kept its martial techniques and was of high importance. Usually, there was an elder guarding it personally.

"Fifth Elder."

Upon arriving at the Martial Pavilion, Wyatt greeted the elder at the entrance with a slight bow.

"Wyatt Barnes?"

Fifth Elder 'Moshe Lee' was slightly surprised to see Wyatt.

"Did you...enter the Body Tempering Realm First Level?"

When he saw the change in Wyatt, he couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.

Wyatt nodded with a smile.

"Now your mother ought to stop worrying. Okay, go in and choose any set of Martial Techniques."

Moshe Lee said with a smile.

He got along well with the Ninth Elder, Christina.

With a nod, Wyatt entered the Martial Pavilion.

"Wyatt Barnes has entered the Body Tempering Realm First Level?"

A few young men who had just arrived at the Martial Pavilion looked at each other in disbelief.

For them, the shock of Wyatt entering the Body Tempering Realm First Level was no less than pigs climbing trees or cows flying.

After entering the Martial Pavilion, Wyatt began to look at the Martial Techniques inside...

As a result, he found that the Martial Techniques of the Lee Family's Martial Pavilion were all very ordinary.

In his view, these low- and mid-level yellow techniques couldn't even compare to the Military Fist he practiced in his previous life, let alone the Shape and Intent Fist.

"In this world, people's bodies are strong, and Origin Force is stronger than the internal strength of my previous world. But the Martial Techniques are hard to look at... I have no need to waste time on these martial techniques. Having the Shape and Intent Fist is enough."

Wyatt's Shape and Intent Fist had reached the master level, surpassing even the teacher from his previous life.

With this thought, he left the Martial Pavilion.

"Didn't you find anything suitable?"

Fifth Elder Moshe Lee was puzzled when he saw Wyatt coming out empty-handed.

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

Wyatt nodded.

"Tsk!"

Suddenly, a scoffing laughter reached Wyatt Barnes' ears.

"So, you, Wyatt Barnes, seem to look down on our martial skills in the Lee Family Martial Pavilion. I'm very curious what kind of martial skills your mother has taught you privately that make you so arrogant. Wyatt Barnes, I heard that you have already entered the First Level of Body Tempering Realm. How about testing a few moves with me?"

In the voice, sarcasm is implied.

Wyatt Barnes lifts his head.

Only to find out.

Unknown to him, Rudy Lee had also arrived at the Martial Pavilion, with bruised cheek still showing, looking at him provocatively.

"Oh, I thought it was someone else, turns out it's you. Tsk-tsk... is your face still sore?"

Wyatt Barnes laughed instead of getting angry in the face of Rudy Lee's provocation.

"Wyatt Barnes, I challenge you! Let the Fifth Elder be the witness, do you dare to accept the challenge?"

Rudy Lee inhaled deeply, declaring with a low voice.

What happened three days ago was undoubtedly a significant humiliation for him.

What he wanted to do most in these three days was to take revenge!

Today, he heard that Wyatt Barnes had entered the First Level of the Body Tempering Realm and rushed over immediately.

In his view, Wyatt Barnes is now a martial artist. If he seriously injured him in a formal contest, according to the clan rules, even if Wyatt's mother was extremely angry, she could only swallow her teeth in anger.

Of course, the prerequisite is that Wyatt Barnes accepts his challenge.

"Why wouldn't I dare?"

In response to Rudy Lee's provocation, Wyatt Barnes narrowed his eyes, with a light smile.

"Wyatt Barnes, don't be impulsive!"

Fifth Elder Moshe Lee frowned.

In his view.

Wyatt Barnes is only in the First Level of Body Tempering Realm and seems to have not trained any martial arts skills, so how could he be a match for Rudy Lee, who is in the Second Layer of Body Tempering Realm?

"Good! Wyatt Barnes, you're manly."

Rudy Lee laughed triumphantly, giving an impression of a successful plot.

"Fifth Elder, please bear witness to our duel, so that the Ninth Elder won't bother me afterwards."

Then, Rudy Lee looked towards Moshe Lee with a Slight respect.

"Yes, Fifth Elder, please bear witness, I also don't wish for the Seventh Elder to bother me."

Wyatt Barnes responded aggressively.

If it was before, he might have been somewhat hesitant to face Rudy Lee, who is in the Second Layer of Body Tempering Realm.

But after witnessing those incredible martial arts skills in the Martial Pavilion, he realized that he overestimated Rudy Lee.

"This kid, too impulsive... Well, giving him a lesson is also good."

Moshe Lee frowned, glanced at Wyatt Barnes, stood up, and walked towards outside of Martial Pavilion.

The members of the Lee family who were there all had excited looks on their faces. There's a good show coming!

Outside the Martial Pavilion, Wyatt Barnes and Rudy Lee stood facing each other.

Moshe Lee, as the witness, stood to the side.

"Wyatt Barnes, today I will return you tenfold the humiliation you gave me before!"

There was a fierce smile on Rudy Lee's face, as if Wyatt Barnes was already putty in his hands.

"Let's see if you're capable enough."

Wyatt Barnes laughed.

"You're courting death!"

Rudy Lee lost his temper, roaring in anger.

His legs shook the ground, and he shot out like a fierce tiger launching an attack.

Fierce Tiger Fist!

Both fists were swung out, creating a gust of wind, going straight for Wyatt Barnes.

"That's the mid-tier Yellow level martial skill 'Fierce Tiger Fist.' Rudy Lee is really good, his Fierce Tiger Fist has clearly reached a minor accomplishment."

"Wyatt Barnes has just stepped into the First Level of Body Tempering Realm, he probably hasn't had time to practice martial arts skills yet. To dare to accept Rudy Lee's challenge, he really doesn't fear death!"

"Today, with the Fifth Elder as a witness, even if Wyatt Barnes is severely injured like last time, as long as he doesn't die, the Ninth Elder, no matter how angry, can't do anything to Rudy Lee."

...

The onlooking members of the Lee family discussed, none of them believed that Wyatt Barnes would win.

After all, there's a big difference between the First Level and the Second Layer of Body Tempering Realm.

"Fierce Tiger Fist? Looks more like a Sick Cat Fist to me."

Wyatt Barnes' lips curled, a trace of disdain showed in his smile.

In his view, the martial skill that Rudy Lee was using right now was full of openings, and he had hundreds of ways to break it.

Eventually, he chose the most direct way to break it.

Thud!

Under everyone's watchful gaze, Wyatt Barnes also dashed out, charging forward.

Just as he was about to be hit by Rudy Lee's fists, his upper body bent back at an amazing angle, dodging Rudy Lee's fists, and moving towards Rudy Lee's back.

"Now!"

Wyatt Barnes stomped on the ground, his body agilely twisted around.

His right fist clenched, his upper body bent back sharply, and his arms drew back.

In that moment, Wyatt Barnes seemed to have turned into a strong bow bent to its limit, his back began to tremble.

He released his hands, his upper body suddenly leaning forward, his right fist shot out with the force of a collapsing mountain.

Collapsing Fist!

Wyatt Barnes cleverly dodged Rudy Lee's Fierce Tiger Fist. In the moment Rudy Lee was taken aback by inertia, Wyatt's fist landed fiercely on Rudy Lee's right shoulder.

Crack!

The sound of bone breaking rang out.

Rudy Lee was directly sent flying, screaming like a pig being slaughtered.

Even if Rudy Lee's strength exceeded Wyatt Barnes by twenty pounds, at this moment, he was completely helpless.

Crash!

Rudy Lee's body heavily hit the ground, letting out a scream, his body trembling violently, and began to convulse in pain.

Silence.

The whole scene fell into a dead silence.

Everyone from Fifth Elder Moshe Lee to each member of the Lee family opened their mouths wide, looking incredulously at the scene before them.

The Collapsing Fist that Wyatt Barnes just performed...

In their eyes, it was nothing short of miraculous!
