n“It’s really… Thunder Palm?!”

nLin Xiuzhu stood beside his father and looked at Eleven in disbelief.

nCompared to being told about something, it was clearly more shocking to see it personally.

nThunder Palm skill… was actually really mastered by a level-six young Iron-eating Beast?

n“Impressive.”

nLin Hongnian nodded. Moreover, it was the Thunder Palm that had just gained power. It seemed that this Iron-eating Beast had put in a lot of effort to practice after mastering the Thunder Palm.

n“Although it won’t lose its battle ability, if it takes this move head-on, Jiang Rui’s Iron-eating Beast’s entire body will probably be paralyzed.”

nLin Hongnian looked at the venue and judged.

nZi! Zi! Zi!

nJiang Rui’s Iron-eating Beast was crackling all over.

nAt this moment, Jiang Rui was at a loss and shocked.

nHow could this be… This didn’t make sense!

n“Wuu—” Just as Jiang Rui was stunned, the Iron-eating Beast’s roar woke him up.

nThe battle wasn’t over yet.

n“Hard Claw.”

nOnly then did Jiang Rui react and hurriedly give the order to attack.

n“We can’t lose…”

nIt was fine to lose to a newcomer. After all, the other party had already used the Thunder Palm. Who the heck would call this a newcomer?

nHowever, after losing, the training volume would increase. It would really be devastating for a panda.

nIn order to not train twice as much, even if Jiang Rui’s Iron-eating Beast was paralyzed, it still erupted with fighting spirit.

n“Wuu—”

nUnder the Beast Tamer’s command, its body shot out lightning as it pounced at Eleven.

nBuzz—

nHowever, under the paralysis state, the iron-eating beast’s speed was more than just half a beat slower.

nOpposite it, Eleven, who had pulled away, instantly saw hundreds of openings in Jiang Rui’s Iron-eating Beast’s attack under the lock of its super vision.

n“Don’t dodge. Fight it head-on and counterattack.” Shi Yu ordered. He didn’t plan on showing the super vision to everyone.

nEleven:???

nAlthough it could easily dodge the attack trajectory with its super vision, Shi Yu had not forgotten the purpose of the battle.

nIt was to show Lin Hongnian Eleven’s Hardening and Thunder Palm Proficiency, not to showcase the power of his super vision.

n“Wuu!” The Beast Tamer had already given the order. What else could Eleven do?

nIt directly stood on the spot like Jiang Rui’s Iron-eating Beast just now, its whole body hardening!

n“Proficient Level Hardening!”

nAt this moment, when they saw the changes in Eleven’s body, the disciples of the dojo were shocked again.

nNot only did he master the Thunder Palm, even its Hardening Proficiency looked very high!

nThat made sense. After all, one of the requirements to learn Thunder Palm was proficient level Hardening!

nWhile everyone was amazed by the little Iron-Eating Beast’s monster-like talent, Jiang Rui’s Iron-Eating Beast swiped its claw at Eleven.

nScreech…

nJiang Rui’s Iron-eating Beast mainly trained the hardness of its claws. In daily training, the hardening skin of the Iron-eating Beasts of other martial arts apprentices was often torn by the hard claws of his Iron-eating Beast.

nBut this time, under the claw of Jiang Rui’s Iron-eating Beast, it only left a white mark on Eleven’s hardened skin. It didn’t break through his defense at all!

nIt was just a very light injury!

n“How is this possible?!” Jiang Rui felt that it was ridiculous again.

nIn the next second, an even more ridiculous scene appeared.

nAfter taking the palm, Eleven maintained his hardening state and tried his best to hit his Iron-eating Beast.

nBecause the lightning energy accumulated in his body was limited, it was very difficult for Eleven to use the second powerful Thunder Palm. This time, he could only choose to harden his skin against the enemy.

nBoom!!!

nBecause they thought that the other party had only mastered proficient level Hardening, Jiang Rui and his Iron-eating Beast didn’t have any defense awareness at all, causing them to directly eat all the damage from this impact!

nPlop!

nJiang Rui’s Iron-eating Beast was sent flying. The maximum power Thunder Palm plus full damage Hardening impact directly made his Iron-eating Beast lose its battle awareness!

n“Thank you,” Shi Yu said in embarrassment.

nAt this moment, Jiang Rui and the apprentices’ worldview gradually shattered.

n“Expert level… Hardening…”

nThis was… a level-six young Iron-eating Beast??

nEven the iron-eating beasts cultivated by the senior brothers and sisters who passed the vocation assessment were only so-so.

n“Wuu!!!”

nAt the same time, Eleven let out a cry of victory when he saw his opponent fall.

nHowever, it still felt that it wasn’t enough.

nThe strength of the apprentices in Bamboo Stone Dojo seemed to be limited.

nAt the moment, probably only pets of the commander rank and above could pose a threat to Eleven.

n“Jiang Rui, you lost. Your training will be doubled when you go back.” At this moment, Lin Hongnian spoke beside him.

n“I…” Jiang Rui expressed that he had lost for no reason.

nThis, this, this, a newbie???

nHe looked at Eleven and Shi Yu with a blank expression, then at Lin Hongnian and Lin Xiuzhu. He suspected that they were Master Lin’s illegitimate children.

nOtherwise, how could he be so strong?

nThe other apprentices from the dojo also looked confused, but at this point in the battle, Lin Hongnian felt that it was enough.

n“Jiang Rui, bring the Iron-eating Beast to treat it. The others continue training. Shi Yu, come with me.”

n“Alright.”

nLin Hongnian turned and left. Shi Yu could only call Eleven to follow.

nAs for Lin Xiuzhu, he was still pondering on the spot.

nWas this really the Eleven she knew?

n“Senior Sister Lin, that person is…” The other apprentices surrounded Lin Xiuzhu.

nLin Xiuzhu returned to his senses and said, “Your training will also be doubled.”

nWith that said, she hurriedly followed her father and Shi Yu, leaving the confused apprentices behind.

nHow was this a rookie at the bottom? It was clearly a monster genius who only knew how to provoke people. Damn!

n…

nIn the inner area of Bamboo Stone Dojo, in an empty training hall, Shi Yu was brought here by Lin Hongnian.

nFollowing beside Shi Yu, Eleven observed the strange middle-aged man leading the way. It kept feeling that he looked a little familiar.

n“Eleven.” Lin Xiuzhu called Eleven after following him.

nEleven turned around and couldn’t help but be pleasantly surprised when it saw Lin Xiuzhu.

nIt was the Big Sister.

nWell… in Eleven’s eyes, Lin Xiuzhu, who often wore a panda costume, was one of them. She was a panda to it.

n“Eleven, long time no see.” Lin Xiuzhu touched Eleven’s head and hugged it to observe.

nWell… Eleven was still that Eleven, but what exactly happened???

nWhy was it suddenly so strong…

n“Your Iron-eating Beast is pretty outstanding.”

n“It’s the most outstanding iron-eating beast I’ve ever seen.” Lin Hongnian was not stingy with his praise in front.

n“Wuu!!!” Eleven left its stuffy place and clenched its fists. Of course… It also remembered who this uncle was. It seemed to have seen him in the breeding base, but it didn’t know who he was.

n“Thank you.” Shi Yu acknowledged the praise slightly. Sigh, wasn’t this all thanks to his training?

n“In short, your future is immeasurable.” Lin Hongnian sighed.

n“Unfortunately, I can’t teach you much. Next, I plan to show you the training direction after Hardening and Thunder Palm. You can take a look.”

nAfter saying that, a blue summoning array appeared beside the old man. A two-meter-tall adult Iron-eating Beast walked out.

nThis iron-eating beast had a fierce expression. Its whole body was muscular and looked extremely strong. It was completely unlike the laziness of ordinary iron-eating beasts. It was not cute at all.

nIt seemed that under the nurturing of Hall Master Lin Hongnian, this pet had already overcome some habits and become a symbolic battle pet.

n“The different proficiency symbols for hardening should be clearly recorded in that basic cultivation manual.”

n“As for the Thunder Palm…”

nLin Hongnian looked at his Iron-eating Beast and nodded.

nThe next moment, in Shi Yu and Eleven’s eyes, the Iron-eating Beast’s palm also filled with a high-intensity electric current that was interweaved between blue and white!

nZizi!!!

nAs lightning lingered in his palm, the strong Iron-eating Beast’s surroundings flashed with lightning, appearing especially dazzling.

n“Your Iron-eating Beast’s Thunder Palm proficiency is currently at initial level.”

n“Once hit, after the chaotic high-intensity electric current erupts, it can put the enemy in a strong numb state.”

n“However, the penetration power is still not enough. Otherwise, it could have directly shattered the hardening layer and killed the opponent just now.”

n“And the symbol of the proficient level Thunder Palm is reflected in the piercing and penetration effect of the Thunder Palm.”

nZizi!!!

nAs Lin Hongnian finished speaking, the chaotic blue and white lightning on his Iron-eating Beast’s palm started to wander. They gathered and looked even stronger.

nThe Iron-eating Beast casually waved its arm. As the lightning flashed, the lightning seemed to really become a sharp blade. Its penetrative power increased visibly, and the air started to hiss.

n“With the proficient level, no matter how hard the steel is, it can still be shattered with the Lightning Penetration.”

n“As for the expert level Thunder Palm… If I’m not wrong just now, your Iron-eating Beast was a little weak after using the Thunder Palm.”

nShi Yu nodded.

n“The symbol of an expert-level Thunder Palm is the normalization of it.”

nAfter Lin Hongnian finished speaking, his Iron-eating Beast moved again. This time, both its palms were covered in lightning and it maintained this state continuously.

n“Not only can it let the lightning cover the palm like the vambrace, but it can also use the Thunder Palm with both hands. This is the symbol of an expert-level Thunder Palm.”

n“Then…”

nAfter saying that, he looked at his Iron-eating Beast.

n“It’s the state where you train the Thunder Palm to perfection!”

n“Wuu!!!!”

nThe strong Iron-eating Beast roared, and the lightning from its palms began to spread throughout its entire body, invading its body.

nZizi!!!

nUnder the lightning, its mouth and eyes seemed to be filled with lightning.

nIn the next moment, all the hair on its body stood up. As if it were a bolt of lightning, it streaked past and instantly appeared 50 meters away from the training hall. Then, it instantly returned to its original spot.

nEverything happened in the blink of an eye, leaving the ground charred.

n“Perfect proficiency. Borrowing the high-intensity electric current of the Thunder Palm to stimulate the whole body, using this to produce a powerful instant explosive force, obtaining speed that can’t be seen with the eyes.”

n“After training the Thunder Palm to perfection, the penetration power of the lightning and its own speed can even cut open real lightning!”

n“His vision is so strong,” Shi Yu thought.

nAfter Lin Hongnian finished speaking, Shi Yu was still feeling alright. Eleven, who was beside him, however, looked at Shi Yu excitedly.

nThis one looks so powerful…

nShi Yu, increase points!

nHe would make up for it afterwards with training.

n“However, this isn’t even anything!” Lin Hongnian wasn’t done speaking. “This is what you should be pursuing.”

nThis time, Shi Yu also perked up and looked at Lin Hongnian.

nWas he going to show him theTranscendent Thunder Palm?! What effect would it have?

nObviously, he was overthinking. Even Lin Hongnian, a master-level Beast Tamer, didn’t train his Iron-eating Beast’s Thunder Palm to that level.

nAt this moment, Lin Hongnian’s Iron-eating Beast dispersed the lightning and actually entered a hardening state.

nThen, it raised its head and clenched its fists.

nBoom!

nUnder the metallic texture of its entire body, an even stronger electric current shot out from its body. Black and white intertwined, and under the flickering of the blue electric current, it was as if the iron-eating beast was wearing lightning armor!

nBoom!

nBoom!

nIn this state, the Iron-eating Beast’s strength was full. Its attack, defense, and speed reached the peak together. The explosive sound of the lightning armor seemed to be able to shatter the enemy’s will.

n“A combination skill of Hardening and Thunder Palm?” Shi Yu opened his mouth slightly.

n“Yes, but it’s more powerful than ordinary combination skills.” Beside him, Lin Xiuzhu didn’t expect his father to display it to this extent.

n“When ordinary two skills are successfully combined, it’s called a combination skill.”

n“But Father’s Iron-eating Beast’s Hardening Proficiency and Thunder Palm Proficiency are both above Perfect Level.”

n“In the master domain, Beast Tamers call the perfect combination skill formed by two skills above perfect proficiency ‘profundity’.”

n“Right now, this is one of the profundities mastered by Father’s Iron-eating Beast, ‘Thunder Armor’. With this profundity, it can temporarily battle monarch-level creatures.”

n
