Mortal Mirror

Li Ergou narrowed his eyes slightly because he felt the power of martial arts True Qi.

He thought to himself, 'This guy is too savage. He's actually using martial arts power against a mortal like me. It seems he really wants to beat me to death.'

He sighed. He originally just wanted to keep a low profile, but now, if he continues to hide his strength, he might really get beaten to death. So, he doesn't need to hide his true strength anymore.

"Fight, Ergou," he said to himself in his heart.

Long Wu, carrying infinite power and a terrifying aura, pounced on him once again, shouting, "Die!"

Over the past year, Li Ergou's cultivation has increased a lot. Before, when someone entered within a meter of him, their attacks would appear very slow in his eyes. Now, he can extend this perception to a distance of three meters.

In his eyes, Long Wu's speed was much slower. He could see the Gang Qi carried on Long Wu's fist.

At this moment, he bent down and adopted a horse stance, extending his hand. Martial arts True Qi brewed within his palm. Then, he swayed his body, extending one hand forward into a palm and clenching the other hand into a fist behind him, assuming an offensive posture.

Just as Long Wu's fist arrived, a layer of thick Gang Qi surged out from his fist. At this moment, he also threw a punch, and his fist was aimed directly at Long Wu's fist. He wanted to see whose fist was harder.

Long Wu also felt the martial arts True Qi emanating from Li Ergou's body at this moment. He was shocked because he felt that the martial arts True Qi emanating from Li Ergou was even more powerful. For a moment, he couldn't help but think of the phrase "pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger."

He felt fear in his heart, but it was too late.

The next moment, the two fists collided together, emitting a deafening roar.

Bang!!!

Li Ergou had been practicing stance training for more than a year, rain or shine, without interruption. His lower body was as stable as a mountain, as if rooted in the ground. It wasn't him bragging, but as long as he adopted a horse stance, even two large white elephants couldn't pull him.

Long Wu was blasted away five or six meters by the powerful force, lying on his back on the ground. His fist was visibly red and swollen, and his entire hand bone was shattered, causing him excruciating pain. He wouldn't be well for a while.

Looking at Li Ergou again, he hadn't moved an inch, as steady as an old dog. He took a deep breath and stood up.

He rubbed his slightly red and swollen fist, waved his sleeve, put one hand behind his back, and looked up with his chest out, looking down at Long Wu, who was still in shock, and said, "As a martial artist, you actually have fear in your heart. A martial artist must be brave and fearless to be invincible. Unfortunately, the moment you felt fear, you had already lost."

At this moment, he seemed like an unfathomable martial arts grandmaster, making him look instantly high-end.

Countless people looked at him differently. Even Zhu Daqiang's eyes contained a bit of admiration, especially after hearing Long Wu say that Li Ergou was also a martial artist. Many people's hearts were churning. They felt that this Li Ergou was very scheming, too able to endure, and a ruthless character.

Li Ergou didn't think much about it, just feeling in his heart, 'No wonder so many people love to show off. This feeling of showing off is really great.'

When Long Wu heard Li Ergou's words, his face was immediately filled with admiration, and then he said with shame, "I, Long Wu, have eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai. After seeing you today, I am completely convinced. I will never compete with the Haotian Martial Arts School again."

As he said that, he stood up and was about to leave.

Unexpectedly, Li Ergou suddenly said, "Wait."

Everyone was puzzled and didn't understand what Li Ergou wanted to do. Could it be that this person had been angered and wanted to kill them all?

For a time, everyone couldn't help but feel chills and worried about Long Wu's life.

Long Wu's heart was also up and down, thinking that this guy wouldn't hold a grudge against him for exposing his identity and retaliate against him, right?

But then he saw Li Ergou reveal a trace of embarrassment and say, "Well, it's not good to just leave like this. There's a fee for my appearance. I hope you can give me some tips. It's not good to let me work for nothing, is it?"

Everyone: "..." Everyone fell down...￥％43

Li Ergou's tall image instantly shrank a lot in everyone's hearts. Fortunately, Li Ergou didn't care about these illusory things.

Long Wu didn't hesitate at all and immediately asked his disciples to take out money. Everyone took out all the money they had on them and honestly put it in front of Li Ergou. Li Ergou glanced at it, a small pile, a total of more than three hundred taels. He was overjoyed, he had made a fortune.

Dabaixiang's eyes were shining at this moment, and he walked up with a cheap smile on his face, helping Li Ergou to take all the silver and take it all away.

Zhu Daqiang walked up, with a trace of disbelief in his eyes, and still sighed: "Ergou, you are really wasted here with me. Don't worry, I, Zhu Daqiang, will definitely do what I promise."

Saying that, he took out a five-hundred-tael silver note and said, "Zhenghe Bank's silver note, can be exchanged nationwide."

Li Ergou took the silver note without hesitation, his eyes shining with joy and said, "Guanzhu, you're too polite."

There was a clear trace of reluctance in Zhu Daqiang's eyes, and he didn't let go, thinking, 'You got more than three hundred taels of silver, why bother with my hard-earned money?'

Li Ergou thought to himself, 'You old guy, you still don't let go, do you want to go back on your word? Then I won't agree.' So, the two of them wrestled for a while, both showing embarrassment on their faces. In the end, Zhu Daqiang still gave in, and the silver note was snatched by Li Ergou.

Li Ergou didn't even turn his head back, turned around and left. Zhu Daqiang was unhappy, but he couldn't do anything about it. He couldn't help but think, 'The current Ergou is no longer the former Ergouzi.'

Li Ergou became famous in one battle, and completely became famous in Tiangou Town, but these are not what he wanted. Three days later, Zhu Daqiang told Li Ergou a good news. He found an acquaintance, and Li Ergou's name has been reported, just waiting for August 1st to take the exam.

Li Ergou was naturally very happy to hear this news, and then he found Lu Changsheng and Dabaixiang for a big meal, spending freely.

On this day, in the medicine room of the martial arts hall, Li Ergou looked at the gurgling medicine pot in front of him, and couldn't help but fall into contemplation. Now he is in the middle stage of refining essence in martial arts, and the second level of refining qi in Shinto. At this moment, he finally realized what Wu Shenxian said.

You can't have both fish and bear's paw. Cultivating both together not only requires more time, the most important thing is resources, more resources. Fortunately, he robbed a lot of pills last time. Even so, it is very costly, and it won't be long before this batch of pills will be completely consumed.

The most depressing thing for him is that those guys are afraid of being robbed. It's also his fault. He should have sheared their wool one by one, but he sheared them all bald at once, and they were chilled. This lesson must be remembered, and it must never be repeated in the future.

The most important thing is that martial arts is still okay now, he knows some fist and foot skills, but as for the Shinto method, he has only cultivated the power of Shinto, but he doesn't know how to use it, he can only use it to knead stones. Flying into the sky, manipulating flying swords, talismans all over the world, are all his expectations, but he can't get the method.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is August 1st. Li Ergou has been looking forward to it, and the day of the martial arts exam has finally arrived.
