One Punch

Chu Yuan sneered, however, he did not refute Huyan Lanruo's words. Instead, his tone and manner spoke of his attitude.

Nie Li didn't have any reaction to it all, no matter whether it was Huyan Lanruo's praise or Chu Yuan's contempt. Their words were unable to affect him in the slightest. After his rebirth, Nie Li couldn't be bothered with a vile person like Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan didn't have the qualifications to talk to him.

"Chu Yuan, what's with your attitude?" snapped Huyan Lanruo, wrinkling her brows.

"I'm laughing because I don't know what bewitching soup this brat gave you to make you think that he's actually a genius! Someone with only a red soul realm, what achievements can he accomplish in the future? This kind of garbage isn't fit to be associating with us." Chu Yuan sneered.

His relation with Shen Yue's brother, Shen Fei, wasn't bad, moreover, he had been unhappy with Nie Li from the start.

"You're too much!" exclaimed Ye Ziyun while knitting her brows. She felt indignant for Nie Li. Although Nie Li was a little annoying, she believed that Nie Li truly was the real deal. However, Nie Li was too low profile, therefore, a lot of people didn't know of Nie Li's talent.

Nie Li's gaze turned slightly cold. Even though he did not put Chu Yuan in his eyes, which was why he was too lazy to bother about Chu Yuan, that didn't mean that he would tolerate a clown dancing around in front of him.

"Chu Yuan, your talent doesn't seem to be any better. You're older than Nie Li by three years, however, you're only at 3-star Bronze rank and you still have the cheek to comment on others." Huyan Lanruo laughed. There were a lot of their peers in nobility that were already nearing the Silver rank, and Chu Yuan still remained at the 3-star Bronze rank.

Hearing Huyan Lanruo's words, Chu Yuan felt a little embarrassed. Within his peers, his talent wasn't considered the worst, however, he didn't work hard. He soaked himself into women daily, naturally, he didn't have the mood to practice which was why he had remained at the3-star Bronze rank.

"So what? At least I have a yellow soul realm. If I were to work hard a little, breaking through into the Silver rank wouldn't be difficult. As for him, I estimate that he will remain a 1-star Bronze rank for his entire life!" Chu Yuan refuted while mocking Nie Li mercilessly.

Because of Nie Li's silence, Chu Yuan believed that he was definitely afraid. People like Nie Li only had good looks and flowery words to coax others. How could he have any talent?

Red soul realms were simply garbage!

Nie Li's sharp eyes swept across Chu Yuan and he indifferently chuckled, "Then, I'll challenge you here. Whoever loses will need to imitate a dog and crawl three rounds. How about it?"

Upon hearing Nie Li's words, Ye Ziyun anxiously pulled Nie Li.

What was wrong with Nie Li? He actually wanted to challenge Chu Yuan? Nie Li was not even at the 1-star Bronze rank yet and Chu Yuan was already at the 3-star Bronze rank! This kind of gap was like heaven and earth. It was simply impossible to break through.

Seeing Ye Ziyun's anxious look, Nie Li felt his heart warm up because Ye Ziyun was actually very concerned about him.

After Huyan Lanruo felt stunned by Nie Li's speech, her eyes profoundly glanced at Nie Li. Nie Li didn't seem to be a rash person.

Hearing Nie Li's words, Chu Yuan froze on the spot for a moment, then frantically laughed, "What did I just hear? You actually want to challenge me? Haha, this is the funniest joke that I've ever heard. He's barely a 1-star Bronze rank, yet he actually wants to challenge me. Such impudence!"

"Nie Li, don't be rash!" pleaded Ye Ziyun, thinking that Nie Li had irrationally challenged Chu Yuan after being enraged by Chu Yuan's mocking.

"Even if I do not use my soul force, with my physical strength alone, I can beat the crap out of you!" Chu Yuan arrogantly laughed. His physical strength alone was already at the 1-star Bronze rank, "Brat, if you're afraid, it's not too late to take back your words!"

Nie Li moved his fingers, letting off explosive cracking sounds from his finger joints. He indifferently looked at Chu Yuan and said, "If garbage like you keeps on dancing around in my face everyday, then I'll be busy! Since you do not have any eyes, I'll have to act to teach you guys that there are some people that you people can never offend!" After talking, Nie Li's gaze swept across Shen Yue and his bunch.

Chu Yuan's facial expression darkened. He fiercely stared at Nie Li and said, "You asked for it!"

Chen Linjian was also alarmed. Although Nie Li was very knowledgeable, his cultivation had not reached the 1-star Bronze rank yet. How could he win against Chu Yuan? Just as Chu Yuan had said, even if he didn't use his soul force, he could easily crush Nie Li!

But Nie Li wasn't a rash kind of person. Chen Linjian couldn't help but feel curious in his heart. He waved his hand at the surrounding bystanders to move a distance away.

"Rest assured, as your man, if I couldn't manage this kind of situation, then I might as well kill myself!" Nie Li laughed while seeing Ye Ziyun's anxious expression beside him.

"You…" Ye Ziyun's face suddenly flushed red. She stomped her feet onto the ground. 'Nie Li, this guy is too annoying!' She had only showed her concern for him as a friend, but had never expected that Nie Li would be this glib which caused her to be angry in her heart. She felt like she should just let Chu Yuan beat Nie Li up!

Seeing Ye Ziyun's indignant look, Huyan Lanruo faintly smiled at Nie Li. Nie Li wasn't a boring piece of wood and seemed to know how to provoke a girl's heart. But up till now, Nie Li had been cold towards her. Was she not charming enough? She felt that with her beauty, she could easily make a little boy like him go head over heels for her! Hence, she felt all the more interested towards Nie Li.

The surrounding people moved away, giving Nie Li and Chu Yuan some space.

Seeing this scene, Chu Yuan's eyes shined with a chill. Nie Li actually dared to challenge him, he was simply seeking his own death. He had spoken with Shen Fei a few times. If given the chance, he would definitely kill Nie Li! However, he didn't know why, when he saw that assured look of Nie Li's, his heart felt uneasy.

Would Chu Yuan lose? That was simply an impossible thing. Everyone here knew that Chu Yuan's soul force had already reached the 3-star Bronze rank.

Even though Nie Li's soul force was only 88 and his physical strength was only around 50, Nie Li had a deeper understanding towards soul force and physical strength.

Nie Li operated his soul force to strengthen his physical body. The muscles on his body began to pump up. Although the pumped muscle on Nie Li's body weren't obvious, they contained explosive power.

"I'll give you three moves, lest you say that I'm bullying the young," declared Chu Yuan, placing his arms behind his back. He proudly looked at Nie Li with his eyes showing hints of contempt.

"Okay!" said Nie Li as he suddenly accelerated. He charged towards Chen Yue, preparing to use an elbow strike on Chu Yuan's abdomen.

"This kind of kiddy punch, you think that we're playing family?" Chu Yuan mockingly laughed. Seeing that Nie Li's elbow was about to strike onto his abdomen, he swept his hand and maintained a certain distance from Nie Li.

In Chu Yuan's view, Nie Li's elbow would never be able to land on his body. However, at this moment, the corner of Nie Li's lips slightly raised.

Chu Yuan was being too conceited!

Nie Li suddenly accelerated, his elbow strike changed to a backhanded punch and, in a flash, he bombarded into Chu Yuan's abdomen. As Chu Yuan was born from a Noble family, his steps were superficial. It was obvious that Chu Yuan didn't have much fighting experience. Although his physical strength had reached the 1-star Bronze rank, it was obvious that they were obtained by consuming elixirs. Nie Li only needed to use a little feint and he could easily overwhelm Chu Yuan!

"If you're only at this level, isn't playing you to death too simple?" Nie Li thought. "And I even prepared so many backup methods too. But it turns out that they don't even need to be used on you."

When he bombarded into Chu Yuan's abdomen, the muscles in Nie Li's arm tightened. One could clearly see how awful the burst of power from Nie Li's fist was.

The complacent look on Chu Yuan's face suddenly froze. He clutched his belly like a shrimp and arched his back while falling onto the ground. His body twitched non-stop and vomiting sounds could be heard from him. That punch from Nie Li was simply intended to turn his intestines inside out!

Seeing this scene, the surrounding people were all dumbfounded.

Chu Yuan was a 3-star Bronze rank Demon Spiritualist. Just his physical body alone had reached the 1-star Bronze rank, but he actually got beaten down by Nie Li's fist?

Did Chu Yuan underestimate his opponent too much, allowing Nie Li to take the advantage?

"This isn't right. Based on physical strength alone, even if Nie Li's fist landed onto Chu Yuan's abdomen, he shouldn't have been able to cause any substantial damage to Chu Yuan. The gap in power is too wide. What is this sitaution? Chu Yuan actually got beaten down by a single punch?"

At this moment, everyone came to an understanding. Nie Li must have been hiding his strength. His physical strength should have already reached the 1-star Bronze rank, right?

What they didn't know was that Nie Li actually hadn't stepped into the 1-star Bronze rank yet, but his control of his strength wasn't something others could imagine. When he used his fist, he focused all his strength into it. Furthermore, the place that he attacked was the weakest spot on Chu Yuan's waist. It was already merciful that the punch hadn't crippled Chu Yuan.

In the terms of controlling his power, Nie Li was definitely a master! Let alone Chu Yuan's 1-star Bronze rank physical body, even if a 5-star Bronze rank or even a Silver rank Fighter were to get a punch from the current Nie Li, they would also be rolling on the floor!

People who only knew how to go head to head based on one's strength, in Nie Li's view, were no different than primitive men.

Ye Ziyun's clear eyes showed deep shock. Nie Li's punch had brought Chu Yuan onto the ground. One could only imagine the ripples that were being caused in this young girl's mind. Nie Li was not even a 1-star Bronze rank cultivator yet. How did he manage do it? Ye Ziyun now realised that she had always been underestimating Nie Li's strength.

Huyan Lanruo looked at Nie Li in an interested manner. The strength that Nie Li had shown also caused her to be shocked, but at the same time, it also made her interest towards Nie Li deepen.

"Interesting," muttered Chen Linjian, watching Nie Li with great interest.

Chu Yuan rolled on the ground for a long time, unable to get up. As a member of nobility, since when had he ever been beaten so badly? He thought that his strength was far above Nie Li's and that he could hold him in complete contempt, which was why he had said he'd give Nie Li 3 moves. However, he had never expected that after one punch, he'd already fall on the ground, and would be unable to get up.

His intestines were in a mess and in unimaginable pain. If he wasn't forcefully enduring it, he was afraid that he would have already fainted.

At this moment, Nie Li looked at the Chu Yuan on the ground, with a harmless look and said, "You said that you'll let me have three moves. This is only the first move. There are still two more left."

Hearing Nie Li's words, the eyes of Chu Yuan, who was currently enduring the pain and was trying to stand up, turned black.

"F*ck, does he have any humanity? That earlier move already took half of my life and Nie Li actually wants me to give him two more moves?!"
