1529 Star Destruction Fist
On the way here, President Anduin had explained the exact arrangements of this test to Chu Nan in detail.
Due to what Chu Nan had said in the previous trial, the Elder Council had decided after some discussion that this test aimed at whether he had secretly learned the Exterminating Heart Technique would be publicized to the entire Declan royal family.
If Chu Nan could not use facts to convince everyone in the royal family, he would still be suspected of secretly learning the Exterminating Heart Technique.
The content of the test was actually very simple. The Declan royal family would send the corresponding candidate to test Chu Nan. If Chu Nan could learn the other party’s cultivation method through the battle as he had said, then the test would be successful. If not, it would be a failure. It meant that he had still learned the Exterminating Heart Technique from Princess Pamela.
As for whether he was secretly learning… because Chu Nan and Princess Viennelle’s engagement was first, the Elder Council would not come to a conclusion for the time being and discuss it in the future.
Of course, it was impossible for the test to continue endlessly. According to the arrangements of the Elder Council, they would test Chu Nan a hundred times. In other words, he had to fight the hundred chosen members of the Declan royal family and learn the cultivation method they used through the battle to prove what he had said previously.
For an entire hundred rounds, Chu Nan did not allow any failure because once he failed, it meant that he could not really easily learn and master all the cultivation methods. Then, the theory that he had grasped the Exterminating Heart Technique through battle naturally did not hold true.
Now, it was the first round.
President Anduin’s voice spread throughout the entire drill ground through the loudspeaker. The surrounding Declan royal family had long been informed by the Elder Council and knew the rules of the test against Chu Nan. As soon as they heard the words “begin the test”, a burly middle-aged man who looked to be in his early forties immediately flew down and landed in front of him.
“Hey, kid, I’m your opponent in the first test.”
The middle-aged man stood in front of Chu Nan with an imposing aura and looked at him with undisguised hostility.
“I’m not afraid to tell you that the cultivation method I’m going to use in a while is called the ‘Star Destruction Fist’. This fist technique emphasizes being majestic and indomitable. It was created by an ancestor of our Declan royal family. When cultivated to the limit, a punch can explode stars. If you’re blown up by my punch later, don’t blame me for not holding back.”
Chu Nan smiled and did not answer. He only stared at the middle-aged man and carefully looked at him as if he wanted to see a flower from him.
Seeing him like this, the middle-aged man frowned.
“Hey, kid, don’t tell me you’re afraid? If you can’t even do it in the first round, why don’t you admit to your guilt honestly and admit that you secretly learned the Exterminating Heart Technique from Pamela before publicly apologizing to the entire royal family? Then, on account that Viennelle likes you and has an engagement with you in advance, everyone will treat you as one of us and won’t really do anything to you.”
Chu Nan grinned.
From the looks of it, this first opponent might have been arranged by Prince Lekas and the others. They were filled with the spirit of teaching him and were not afraid of trouble at all.
This should be the intention of Prince Lekas and Prince Rokamp. They clearly hoped that he would honestly admit his engagement to Princess Viennelle and obediently marry her. He would obediently be tied to their chariot and listen to them…
However, Chu Nan was unwilling.
He shrugged at the middle-aged man, “I learned the cultivation method from you in this test. If you don’t attack first, how can I learn?”
The middle-aged man was stunned, then he condensed his thick eyebrows and sneered.
“Do you really want me to attack?”
“Of course. Please.”
“Alright!”
The middle-aged man shouted and did not stop. He threw a punch at Chu Nan.
As soon as he threw this punch, Chu Nan immediately felt as if all the spatial energy in the space ahead had suddenly exploded. A surging and exploding energy fluctuation surged over from ahead, but it did not escape a range and gathered into a ball.
This characteristic of the spatial energy surging and exploding inside but having a clear range of influence instantly made Chu Nan feel a sense of déjà vu.
To Chu Nan, who had a powerful brain like an A.I., déjà vu was very easy to resolve. After searching in his mind, he instantly recalled where he had experienced such a special spatial energy fluctuation pattern.
This situation was simply identical to the inside of the star!
Previously, when Chu Nan headed to the Perseus Arm, he had once entered the star of the Zidam Star System and swam around. He condensed a new star cloud in his dantian through his experience, causing his understanding of the star cloud in his body to increase and his strength to increase greatly.
Now that he experienced an energy fluctuation that was almost identical to the inside of that star, Chu Nan immediately understood.
It was very likely that the ancestor of the Declan royal family who created this fist technique had also barged into the star with his body and comprehended the special spatial energy change in the star.
It had to be said that the spatial energy fluctuation in the star was extremely shocking, and the effect was terrifying. This fist technique used itself to simulate the energy changes in the star and mobilize the spatial energy around it to fuse into the fist technique. The power that erupted was naturally not to be underestimated.
This fist technique should at least be an A-rank cultivation method.
Boom!
Chu Nan raised his right arm to block in front of him and did not dodge, firmly receiving the middle-aged man’s punch.
The Internal Breath impact of the explosion method coming from his fist and the terrifying spatial energy eruption that swarmed over sent Chu Nan flying, immediately causing all the surrounding Declan royal family to reveal surprised expressions.
Even if the surrounding Declan royal families who had come to watch did not know Chu Nan well in the past, after this incident, his reputation among Prince Declan instantly soared. All the Declan royal families took the initiative or passively knew a lot about him and knew that he was almost the most outstanding person in this Garden Hunting Assembly. There were even rumors that he had saved Prince Lekas’s life. Then, his talent was definitely unquestionable, and his strength was definitely not weak.
However, now, he was easily sent flying by such a punch!
The middle-aged man was also stunned, but he snorted and did not stop. He flew up and hammered Chu Nan.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The loud bang brought about by the explosion of countless spatial energy and the muffled sound of fists hitting Chu Nan sounded in a row as if a string of thunder had sounded in the air.
Chu Nan was sent flying by the middle-aged man as if he could not fight back.
On the surface, Chu Nan was already in a precarious state and would be completely defeated at any time, let alone learn cultivation methods through battle.
However, most of the surrounding Declan royal family members were powerful and their understanding of martial techniques was far superior to ordinary martial artists because they had been nurtured since they were young. Naturally, they would not come to such a conclusion so easily and felt that Chu Nan had already been defeated.
On the contrary, many powerful Declan royal families frowned and revealed thoughtful expressions.
On the surface, it seemed that Chu Nan could not fight back at all, but in fact, he was still defending tightly after receiving so many punches. His aura was not chaotic at all and he did not look like he could not withstand a single blow.
Moreover, every time he dealt with the fist technique, he seemed to be even calmer than before. Later on, he was even more relaxed and at ease. Not to mention whether he could learn this fist technique, just his adaptability was already extremely shocking.
After attacking Chu Nan for a while, the middle-aged man suddenly stopped and frowned.
“Hey, kid, how do I know if you’ve learned this fist technique if you’re only being beaten like this?”
Chu Nan put down his arm and asked with a smile, “You mean to let me start counterattacking?”
“Nonsense.”
“Alright, you have to be careful.”
As soon as Chu Nan finished speaking, he suddenly threw a punch at the middle-aged man.
Seeing his punch, regardless of whether it was the middle-aged man or the surrounding Declan royal family, they all revealed shocked expressions.
The spatial energy exploded and surged in this punch, but it could not be escaped. Be it the external fist technique or the spatial energy fluctuation contained in it, it was clearly identical to the first “Star Destruction Fist” thrown by the middle-aged man!
