Suddenly, Chu Feng moved. Before that figure of light started to attack, Chu Feng already took the initiative to attack. Once he moved, he instantly caused the airspace to tremble. That was due to Chu Feng being unable to suppress his excitement in fighting against a Martial King for the first time.
“Boom boom boom boom.”
Chu Feng’s speed was extremely fast. In merely an instant, he reached the Martial King level figure of light. Chu Feng did not use any Martial Skill, instead, he merely activated his Martial Power and, with empty hands and empty fists1, started attacking the Martial King.
Chu Feng’s attacks were extremely fast. It was so fast that one could only sense the might emitted from every attack and be incapable of seeing the attack itself.
As for that Martial King level figure of light, it, too, responded to Chu Feng’s attacks with empty hands and fists, it, too, did not use any other skills and met with Chu Feng in a melee battle comparing their strength in close range combat and the toughness of their bodies.
A close range battle with no weapons put to test the toughness of one’s body the most. If your body was as tough as steel whereas your opponent’s body was only made of flesh, there would simply be no meaning for the two sides to battle. With merely the difference between the toughness of the bodies, the result of the battle was already determined.
Furthermore, a close range battle emphasized one’s reaction speed. In a close range battle, changes were constant. Due to the fact that the distance was too close, often, the techniques used by one’s opponent would cause one to be unable to react in time, causing one to lose the battle.
Logically, it was simply impossible for a rank eight Martial Lord to fight against a rank one Martial King. This was especially true for a close range battle — it was even harder. After all, the Martial Kings are different from Martial Lords. Even if the two were only separated by a single stage, the distance between the two was like heaven and earth. In normal situations, even if a Martial King did not put forth any defensive measures while facing a Martial Lord, it would still be extremely difficult for the Martial Lord to injure the Martial King — the Martial King’s body was that tough.
However, Chu Feng relied on his tough body tempered with his Divine Lightning as well as his extraordinary battle experience and his incomparable reaction speed to fight that rank one Martial King. Not only did he not give way in the battle, he instead held absolute dominance.
A grand rank one Martial King actually ended up being suppressed by a rank eight Martial Lord. If someone was to see this scene, they would definitely gasp in amazement.
