Martial Transcendence

Chapter 14 - Concepts

Wan Zhong crashed on a table. His eyes rolled up and went unconscious.

Everyone was dumbfounded. Du Chan was the first who was surprised anyway. Who would have thought that he would win with just one punch?

"What happened?" someone asked.

"You're blind? The Wan family's genius lost by one punch by that kid" another one said.

"Isn't the Wan family's genius powerful? How can he lose like that?" another one said

The only thing they could think of was "that kid is stronger than Wan Zhong! ...a lot stronger"

The king and the elders were also shocked. Wan family members came and took Wan Zhong away, fed him medication and he woke up. He looked at Du Chan who was standing in the middle of the hall without movement.

"Did I lose?" Wan Zhong asked

His family members looked at each other and sighed.

"Yes, you lost" the family head said.

Seeing the family head, Wan Zhong kneeled, "Sorry father, I'm not strong enough...and" before he said anything the family head stopped him.

"No need for all that. He is stronger than you, so naturally you lost" the family head said. He looked like he was furious. Middle-aged but with a handsome face.

Du Chan was watching this drama silently and another kid jumped in front of him.

"I will fight you," the kid said.

"Okay…." Du Chan accepted his challenge and took his position.

"He underestimated you and that's why he lost. But I'm not like him" that kid said, took his sword out and raised it in the air. Qi started to move towards the sword.

*Sword Cutting Technique*

He shouted and slashed his sword. The qi was moved the same as Ti Jen but it was faster and stronger.

Du Chan was rather alarmed. In that second, his body wouldn't move. He didn't know what to do but suddenly remembered the technique Elder Yue taught him. He lost grip of his fist, opened his palm instead and used that technique.

*Iron Palm*

Qi in his dantian gathered to his palm, took the shape of it and countered the attack.

BOOM!

Both attacks clashed and blew up.

Elder Yue and the sect master looked like it was normal but the people in the hall had no good expression.

"He countered the Sword Cutting Technique with a basic technique? Iron Palm, it's...hard to believe it" Ti old man said.

"Yeah...I didn't know that the Iron Palm technique was that good" another old man said.

"How is that possible? How can that trash technique counter my family's" that kid raged furiously.

However, Du Chan didn't say anything. So that kid got angry and ran straight at him. He swung his sword. But when he got near, Du Chan tightened his clutch and punched on his chin.

BOOM!

He flew in the air and crashed into another table. His eyes rolled up and lost consciousness afterwards. He was the same as Wan Zhong with a single punch he lost the match.

"Even he lost to that kid" an old man said.

"Grandpa, who is he?" a kid asked pointing at the unconscious guy. That kid was at the beginning of the Body Training realm.

"He is also a well-known genius in our kingdom just like Wan Zhong. His name is Fu Lin and he is from the Fu Family"

"Wow, he was the one who defeated those second-tier monsters in the Chaos Forest" that kid praised him.

"Yes, he was the one who killed them" the old man said with a sigh.

"Then….why did he lose like that" that kid asked.

"Everyone loses when they battle with the people stronger than themselves" the old man answered.

The kid looked at Du Chan and said "Grandpa, I think he is the same age as me!"

"Huh?" When other people heard that, they asked how old Du Chan was.

"Hey, boy, how old are you?" Ti old man asked.

No one cared about the Fu Lin who was lying on the broken table. Everyone was waiting for Du Chan's answer.

"I turned 14 last month" Du Chan said.

Everyone was stunned except the set master and Elder Yue.

"Omg! Today I've had enough of these shocks" someone said.

"But….14 years old and already a step away from the Blood Condensation realm...it is a miracle" Ti old man said.

"Haha, it's really amazing that a 14 year-old kid is only step away from the Blood Condensation realm" King said with a laugh.

Murmuring started in the hall but another kid came in front of Du Chan.

"I will challenge you" the kid announced.

Du Chan was confused by them challenging him. Both kids who lost were at the 9th stage of the Qi Condensation realm and with one punch, but another kid came and challenged him although he was also at 9th stage of the same realm. But Du Chan was not someone who avoided fights.

"Okay, please attack first then" he said and took his position.

"Sure" that kid said and attacked him with his sword. But when he got near to Du Chan, he punched on his chin, the same result as the last two guys.

He flew in the air with a beautiful arch shape and crashed to a table. He lost his consciousness.

No one was surprised while the sect master and Elder Yue silently laughed in the corner.

Du Chan looked at his fist and smiled. He knew why he was winning. It was because of the Undying Physique. He cultivated it for the last 6 years. He analysed that he comprehended more than 15? of the technique. He thought he had a long way to go but now he understood that even 15? is enough to defeat the people who were in the same realm as him.

Du Chan looked at the people around him. They looked at him as they looked at a monster. He laughed very loudly. No one understood why he laughed but they understood that he was looking down on them.

'Who would have thought that an otaku from earth would die suddenly and be born in this fun world? I like this world, everything is interesting here, hahaha' crazy thoughts started to pop up in Du Chan's mind.

Hearing him laughing, some geniuses who were very proud of themselves felt ashamed and angry. So two guys stepped in front of Du Chan at the same time.

"Two versus one. Nice! Come at me" Du Chan said.

Both of them started to attack with the swords without saying anything because 2 vs 1 is a shameful thing to do and what can they say?

One attacked from the front and another one from the back. Du Chan ran into the front guy and punched him in his stomach, turned back, kicked the other guy's leg and punched him in the nose.

The guy who had been punched in his stomach coughed blood and fell on the ground. And the other guy's nose was bleeding. He was fine, but he lost his will to fight. So it was Du Chan's win again.

"I don't want to fight the Qi Condensation realm guys anymore" Du Chan said.

Silence filled the hall. A Qi Condensation realm warrior challenging the Blood Condensation realm warriors has never happened before.

Du Chan looked at the Blood Condensation realm people but everyone avoided making eye contact. They had their pride as Blood Condensation realm. How could they fight against a Qi Condensation realm guy? Even if they win against him, what's so proud about winning against a Qi Condensation realm kid?

"Tch. Scaredy cats" Du Chan said. When the Blood Condensation realm cultivators heard him they got furious. Some controlled it but some got a lot angry and started to shout at him, a guy jumped in front of him eventually.

"Getting arrogant just for beating some Qi Condensation realm kids? I will show you the difference between the Qi Condensation realm and the Blood Condensation realm" that kid said.

"Sure, then I will be in your care" Du Chan said.

"Tch" that guy let out and took his sword out from his storage bag.

"Your body is strong and you're good at close combat, so hehe I will not get close to you and use long-range attacks" after he said that he used long-range attacks with his Qi.

Du Chan ran straight at him by dodging his attacks and using the Iron Palm technique. When he got close to him…

"You fell for it" suddenly the presence around Du Chan started to change and in the blink of an eye he was trapped in a water cage.

"Wtf, where did the water come from?" Du Chan shouted.

"Hehe, it seems that you don't know. When people reach the Blood Condensation realm they can learn and use the concept of nature. I can use the concept of water" that guy said and got close to the cage

"Then...is there any concept for thunder and fire?" Du Chan asked him curiously.

"Of course there are but those are very rare and hard to learn" the guy said.

"Wow, if I learn that I can control thunder and fire" Du Chan was always used to dreaming about controlling thunder in his past life.

That guy looked at Du Chan strangely. But Du Chan was not controlled by his emotions, he gated the qi in his dantian and used the Iron Palm continually.

BOOM!

The water cage blasted and Du Cham came out.

"It's my win" Du Chan said and used Iron Fist on that guy. He was caught in surprise and was about to take defence but failed. The fist already landed on him and he felt very much pain in his chest.

That guy flew in the air and crashed into the corner wall of the hall. A white liquid came out of his mouth after he closed his eyes.

"I won" Du Chan said proudly, this is the first time he fought against a Blood Condensation realm warrior and defeated him.

"I will fight with you" an ice cold voice echoed. It was princess voice....
