Martial research master

"We don't wasn't be tagged as bullies who ganged up on a single cultivator." The leader of the group stated.

"You don't possess enough power to be considered as one." Li Meng said in a mocking tone., He had a knack for getting on other people's nerves. The entire group turned towards the judge.

"Can we go against brother Li together?" The leader asked.

The judge who was deeply humiliated by Li Meng's last sentence immediately nodded hi shea and gave out a cruel smile when facing Li Meng.

"Under the compliance between the two parties involved, I hereby allow the group of challengers to fight against Li Meng together. Do you have a problem with that?" He asked Li Meng.

" Does a lion get intimidated when a group of dogs rushed towards it? Why would I have a problem with that? Just remember, weapons have no eyes." The judge felt a chill down his spine as if something sinister was about to occur. He wanted to halt the match, but the group rushed in hearing Li Meng's provocations.

The leader was the first to tackle Li Meng, followed by the other members. They didn't even bother to introduce themselves. They had to get two things. The job was required to be done, and they wanted to get revenge for their crippled associate. The leader waved his sword at Li Meng from a crude angle, which forced Li Meng to dodge sideways, which allowed another member to get a clear shot.

Li Meng's footwork technique was a mixture of too many arts, which made his movements so versatile, that he even managed to dodge this attack and the next three. But the fourth one managed to penetrate through a tricky set of moves. The group felt that contact was made and an incredible injury was inflicted, but Li Meng just pushed back.

He managed to guard against the attack with the sheath of his sword. He didn't even draw his sword out. The audience was gasping at the shocking scene. Li Meng was like an agile dancer who dodged every single attack on him with such fluidity, it felt like they were seeing a soothing dance. After some time, it just felt like Li Meng was playing with the group.

Eventually, the group felt that they had wasted too much energy. Li Meng was constantly provoking them with crude comments, and they let their temper get the better of them in the situation. Before they could even understand the flow of the fight, too much energy was already expended. They were gasping for breath, and it felt more and more difficult to keep up with Li Meng's movements.

"For dogs, even your energy is too low. Does your master not feed you properly" Li Meng said. He was constantly humiliating the group.

One of the members couldn't take it anymore and broke the formation they had managed to maintain until now. He rushed madly at Li Meng, which gave Li Meng an incredible opening. The result was quite obvious. Another cripple cultivator blasted out of the stage and bashed into the wall.

The group was shocked once again, which provided even more opening, and Li Meng became even crueler with time. After the second attack, he took his sword out. The third guy lost an arm and was crippled. The other two lost their legs and were crippled too. Time passed, and only a single person managed to last on the stage.

The audience had jumped out of their seats after experiencing the cruelty of the situation. What started as a glorified and fluid view had now converted into a bloody massacre. Li Meng had managed to decapacitate the entire group of opponents except for the group leader. All they could see was a figure whose sword and the dress were covered in blood, while the other one was shaking in fear.

"Medics kept rushing to the scene but the damage was too much to cope up with instantly. The judge tried to interfere with the match, but when Li meng raised his sword and pointed I at him, he backed out of fear. He could feel the murderous intent oozing out of Li Meng's body, covering the entire stage.  He saw Li Meng slowly approaching the group leader, who was immobilized out of fear.

"Don't come near me." The leader pissed his pants and fell down. Yet no one dared to interfere. They knew that the leader had completely lost his nerves and was scared shitless of Li Meng's cruelty. He wasn't giving up, and hence technically no one could declare an end to the match or interfere. Even more absurd was the fact that there was no one strong enough to interfere with the situation.

Li Meng was continuously tapping his sword on the stage, producing a clanking metal sound that played with the leader's nerves even more. With every clank, he crawled back step by step. Li Meng's entire face was covered with a broad smile. He was still in the mood to toy with the leader before crippling him too.

"Stop this match immediately." Ren Wang suddenly appeared beside the sage and insisted on stopping the match. He wanted the judge to announce it but failed to get a response. He hoped that Li Meng would stop in his tracks after hearing his voice

To his surprise though, not only did dli9 Meng didn't6 stop, he proceeded to cut both the arms of the group leader and kicked him so hard in the Qi center that it was completely shattered and his body caved in. Blood covered the stage after oozing out of the leader's body.

"Whoa." Li Meng turned around, and when he saw Ren Wang his expression turned into that of delight." I didn't expect you to come here, my older brother. How was my performance."

"Hypocrite" was the only thought rushing through the brains of everyone present in the stadium. 

"Shouldn't you declare the result?" Li Meng insisted to the judge.

"The winner of the confrontation is Li Meng. I officially declare this match over." The judge rushed towards the leader's body to check on its condition.

......…..

"Why didn't you stop?" Ren Wang asked Li Meng when they were on their way back to his home.

"Why should I?" Li Meng asked in a sarcastic tone. " just because you said, I should stop in my tracks while confronting an enemy. Who the fuck do you think yourself to be?" Li Meng's expression turned sinister when the words rushed out of his mouth. He was serious about the sentence. He didn't give a fuck about what Ren Wang's thoughts on the situation were.

"This would lead to a huge problem for you." Ren Wang said. His tone had turned polite from the previous scenario as he understood that he had no control over the situation.

"Rather than giving moral advice to people, you should concentrate on your cultivation. If you and your brother were serious enough in your martial path, the situation today would have never occurred." Li Meng's words were like needles piercing through Ren Wang's skin. He received no reply to such a huge allegation. It was the truth.

"I will give you some pretty straightforward advice. If you continued the cultivation speed at which you are progressing now, I will not only beat you but will do it within the next year. Be prepared. Unlike you, my mentality is not bound by a measer institution like Thunder Academy. I have way bigger aspirations." Li Meng left an astounded Ren Wang wandering in the middle of the street.

His world energy cultivation was pretty powerful as of now. He could start the next breakthrough anytime. He didn't have much time remaining, as the next few breakthroughs will eventually decide whether or not he would ever be able to establish a Chaos law base.

"When can we begin?' Li Meng asked.

"Anytime you want. All the reserves from your previous experiment are still present. You should be able to start your breakthrough now."

"Are you capable enough of masking the energy during the breakthrough?"

"If it was before, I wouldn't be able to do it. But as of now, I am nearing the Saint-level artifact. I can easily do it." Keeper reported.

Li Meng began his secluded meditation immediately. His task was to regulate the energies while the next avatars breakthrough the Qi King level. The Breakthrough began, and soon enough energy began to gather around the avatar.

"Please Happen." Li Meng was desperately clinging to the hope of being successful in his venture.
