nAbel viciously stuck out his hand. Without hesitation, he grabbed the Elite Knight of Rodney by his combat qi filled hand. Immediately, Abel jumped off the ground. He used one of his legs to lock down the neck of his opponent, and the other locking down the chest. Abel squeezed both of his legs, tightly hugging the waist for his dear life. He would not let the Knight of Rodney escape. At the same time, the two men fell on to the floor. Abel madly pulled with his arms, and the Knight of Rodney let out a scream of agony. Just like that, a perfect Ude-hishigi-Juji-Gatame grappling technique was executed.

nThe Knight of Rodney had been fully secured on the floor. He was filled with confusion. Why was his opponent was not afraid of his combat qi. His opponent had grabbed his hand full of combat qi without hesitation, not only that, but his opponent had also willingly made contact with his body, which was also filled with combat qi.

nNo one from the crowd, even the Knight of Rodney, had noticed that Abel was using his own combat qi as well. It was just that, Abel’s combat qi was shining in a pale gold color underneath his skin. This kind of combat qi could not increase your strength. It could only avoid other people’s combat qi getting into your body

nThe Knight of Rodney continued to scream as Abel doubled down on his force. His neck was harshly pressed by Abel’s leg through the perfect Ude-hishigi-Juji-Gatame grappling technique. The Knight of Rodney began to lose his ability to breathe, and he felt like his arms were about to break through Abel’s reverse lock. This excruciating amount of pain caused the Knight of Rodney to lose control over his body. All he could do now was to continue gushing out his combat qi. Both Abel and the Knight of Rodney was fully engulfed in a white flash of combat qi.

nAbel realized something strange. This was the first time he had attacked an official knight with his physical body while using his combat qi. Since he was a beginner knight, he could not inject his combat qi on to his weapons. He could rarely make contact with an opponent’s combat qi. Even if he did have a chance, it wouldn’t last long.

nAbel just wanted to have fun. He knew that the Knight of a Rodney did not bring any weapons along with him, so Abel could finally have a chance to test his skills out on an official knight. Abel was very confident in his Karate grappling techniques, so that’s why things had ended up like this.

nAbel could felt the vicious combat qi of the Knight of Rodney rushing towards his body. However, when it was just about made contact with his pale gold combat qi, the vicious combat qi suddenly calmed down. When both of their combat qi finally made contact, the Knight of Rodney’s combat qi suddenly got evaporated into those pale gold combat qi of his, like ice blocks on a heated stove.

nWhen Abel realized his body was immune to other people’s combat qi, he longer cared how much combat qi the Knight of Rodney was injecting in his body. On the other hand, the Knight of Rodney also realized Abel was not putting up any defense towards his combat qi. He began to feel hopeful, so he doubled down on unleashing his combat qi towards the body of Abel.

nAs Abel continued to let massive amounts of white combat qi enters his body, yet they were all evaporated by his pale gold combat qi. He felt his body expanding, and this feeling only escalated as time passed. Soon, he felt like he was about to explode.

nSuddenly, he was reminded of the Knight’s breathing technique. Under this circumstance, he had no choice but to let loose of the knight of Rodney for a bit and began to use the Knight’s breathing technique. A large amount of pale gold combat rushed towards the qi pressure point in his chest. The speed of the combat was much faster than those master’s potion he had drunk before. In almost no time, the qi pressure point in his chest was filled up.

nI can’t continue like this . Abel decided to suppress his pale gold combat qi into his abdominal area. The pale gold combat qi began to swirl within his abdominal. To his surprise, another qi pressuring point was beginning to form.

nAbel wondered if he was actually dreaming. How could he raise his rank again in such a short period of time? Before his battle with the Knight of Rodney, he was still a rank 6 knight. But before he even had time to react, he had already turned in to a rank 7 knights. Despite all of this, the pale gold combat qi in his body doesn’t seem to get drained at all as the Knight of Rodney continued to inject Abel with his white combat qi.

nThe qi pressuring point in his abdominal also began to absorb the white combat qi. A large amount of pale gold combat qi rushed towards it, and soon, the second qi pressure point was also filled up as well.

nAbel did not stop. He began to build his 3rd qi pressuring point from his back. After the qi began to swirl, those pale gold combat qi was sucked into his 3 rd wi pressuring point. Now, he was a rank 8 Knight.

nBy this point, Abel had become a little numbed to his crazy rate of rank increase. He could no longer stop. As the locked down Knight of Rodney continued to inject his combat qi into Abel, Abel couldn’t help but continue to increase his rank at this madding rate.

nMore qi pressuring point began formed, this time under his right armpit. It was then immediately filled with combat qi. Now, he was a rank 9 knight.

n

n

nThe same goes went with the qi pressuring point under his left armpit, which had also formed after a while. Finally, he was a rank 10 knight, or in other words, an intermediate knight!

nThe Knight of Rodney began to notice that something must have gone wrong. His combat qi was starting to drain, it was like his combat qi was being swallowed by something terrifying. It had all vanished into the void after it entered the body of his opponent. By that point, the Knight of Rodney wanted to stop his combat qi, but Abel’s body was like a giant blood-sucking worm, tightly latched on to his body and ruthlessly sucking his last bit of remaining combat qi.

nAbel felt like a qi pressuring point was about to form his palm. If it was successful, he could officially become an intermediate Knight.

nAbel decided to form this first intermediate knight qi pressuring point on his right palm. It seemed like the most logical thing to do. Other than left-handed knights, most intermediate knights would choose their right palm.

nAbel felt like his entire body of combat qi began to vibrate chaotically. He felt a burning sensation in his right palm. Pale gold combat qi began to travel towards his right palm slowly. Then, they began to swirl faster and faster. It because of this qi pressuring point in their palm that an intermediate knight could cover their weapons in combat qi. This qi pressuring was what joins a knight’s combat qi to the external world.

nBy the time the qi pressure point had formed in his right palm, the combat qi within Abel’s body had already become balanced. It no longer needed to rush towards the qi pressuring point within his right palm. However, that qi pressure within his right palm did not like that, and it began to viciously suck like a man dying of thirst in the desert. At first, the Knight of Rodney thought Abel had stopped sucking his combat qi. As he was just about to enjoy a sense of relief, suddenly, an immensely powerful sucking force came from the right palm of Abel.

nEven the last remaining bit of combat qi within the Knight of Rodney had been forcefully sucked dry by Abel’s right palm. Even after all these sucking, Abel’s right palm was still only half full.

nCould this be the “star inhaling da-fa”? Abel was a bit confused. He had only practiced the knight’s breathing technique. It was nothing special. The only difference was that his combat qi was a pale gold color. Could this be the reason?

n

n

nAbel’s pale gold combat qi was different from the legendary combat qi of god. The real combat qi of god was the most advanced combat qi technique. They had attained their gold color through to the massive amount of training. Although those who were able to unleash these advance combat qi technique did not have a bigger core, their core was a lot denser. That’s why their combat qi had turned gold up to a point. However, Abel could only use normal combat qi techniques. His core was built on forcefully sucking overflowing amount of combat qi. If another person had tried to do this, they would most likely get blown into pieces by an excessive amount of qi. Since Abel had also used his power of the will to build his core, his core had become as dense as iron, and a lot bigger than normal.

nYou could say Abel’s core was a deformed one, yet it was so unique, so no one could ever replicate it. Every unique aspect of Abel had played a part in the formation of this deformed core. From the existence Horadric cube, which allowed Abel to combine so many master’s potions, to his unmatchable power of the will, and who could forget his forging knowledge and calm personality. All of these traits were not easy to attain.

n“You are a monster! you are a monster!”

nBy this point, the Knight of Rodney was completely devoid of fighting power. Every single bit of combat qi in his body had been completely sucked dry, and even his combat qi seed had disappeared. Now, he was only a combat qi- less rubbish with the title of an elite knight. If he wanted to regain his combat qi, he had to start with his training all over again.

nWith the mixture of anger and fear, the Knight a Rodney had never felt this hopeless in life. He could not do anything other than mutter. His voice was so soft that only Abel could hear what he had said.
