Chapter 599: Chapter 599: Establishing Prestige with a Single Move

After Long Jingtian introduced Instructor Fang Bai’s identity, he turned and left, not at all worried about any unpleasant incidents occurring between members of the "Dragon Guard" and Fang Bai. In reality, he wanted to use Fang Bai to pressure those members’ arrogance and refine their temperament, which would be greatly beneficial to their future path in the Martial Dao.

However, except for the Dragon Maiden, none of the "Dragon Guard" members present understood Long Jingtian’s painstaking efforts.

Seeing how his remark had angered Long Shijiu to the point of almost exploding, Fang Bai smiled indifferently and said, "Even if your leader Long Jingtian were here, I would dare to say the same thing in front of him! You’re not convinced, right? If you’re not, come challenge me! If you can withstand three moves from me, not only will I take back what I said, but I’ll also apologize to all of you and resign from my post as an instructor!"

Since Fang Bai had accepted Long Jingtian’s invitation to take up the role of an instructor for the "Dragon Guard," he prepared to fulfill his duties and properly guide these members.

But Fang Bai also knew that these "Dragon Guard" members only respected Long Jingtian, and as a young instructor, he would have to show real skill to suppress them, let alone have them accept his guidance.

"If you can defeat me in three moves, I, Long Shijiu, will kneel before everyone here and kowtow to you! From then on, I will respect you like I do our leader!"

Long Shijiu’s face turned red with anger as he loudly uttered these words, provoked by Fang Bai’s challenge.

"Nineteen, stay calm and give it your all! And, since Instructor Fang is a guest, when you spar with Instructor Fang, you must not lose your temper or strike too hard! Do you hear me?"

Long Da was always calm and composed. He knew that if the leader valued Fang Bai enough to hire him as an "Instructor," he must be skilled. Long Shijiu was definitely not his match; it was just a matter of whether he could last three moves.

The words from Long Da seemed like a reminder for Long Shijiu, but they were actually meant for Fang Bai, signaling him to be merciful and not harm Long Shijiu during the fight.

"Come on! I will let you make two moves!"

Fang Bai stood leisurely in place, lazily beckoning Long Shijiu with a hand gesture, giving off a look of complete disregard.

Long Shijiu, with his fiery temper, could not remain calm after seeing Fang Bai’s hand gesture and hearing that "I will let you make two moves." How could he?

He roared like an enraged lion, leaning forward with his upper body, pushing off the ground forcefully with the tips of his toes. His body darted towards Fang Bai like an arrow released from a bowstring.

With his long arms and legs and a robust physique, Long Shijiu possessed a naturally formidable body. Hence, Long Jingtian had taught him a set of forceful and masculine fist techniques, named "Open-Mountain Fist."

Open-Mountain Fist was simple and brusque, straightforward without any fancy moves, but very effective nonetheless.

As the saying goes, raw power overcomes numerous tricks, and speed abolishes all techniques.

In the face of absolute power and speed, all sophisticated techniques are worthless.

And Long Shijiu had mastered both power and speed.

He moved like lightning, and in a blink, he was in front of Fang Bai. At the same time, his fist, as large as a bowl and filled with True Yuan Force, smashed towards Fang Bai’s chest.

Despite his rough exterior, Long Shijiu had a nuanced approach. Knowing he was no match for Fang Bai, he didn’t quite maintain his composure as Long Da had advised, but he threw his punch with full force, hoping to take the initiative. If he could last three moves, Fang Bai would be forced to face embarrassment in front of everyone as an instructor.

Long Shijiu’s punch was much faster than his movement technique, and as he threw the large fist, it ripped through the air, producing a brief and sharp sonic boom from the air at the fist’s forefront.

Long Da and the others watching the fight secretly cheered, recognizing that Long Shijiu had tapped into his full potential, eager to see how Fang Bai would respond to the attack.

The clash of experts, just three moves, is over in the blink of an eye. Without absolute dominance over Long Shijiu, Fang Bai would have been unable to defeat Long Shijiu within those three moves.

One hundred and eighty-one pairs of clenched fists at the chest, her small face a shade of nervousness, she herself couldn’t tell whether she was nervous for Long Shijiu, or for Instructor Fang.

Dragon Maiden, upon seeing Fang Bai’s nonchalant expression, sighed internally, knowing that Long Shijiu was in for a huge disadvantage.

One was merely at Profound Level Perfection, while the other had far surpassed early stages of Heaven Level. Between them lay the vast gulf of an entire Earth Level realm—practically the difference between heaven and earth. Why would Fang Bai need three moves to defeat Long Shijiu?

Just one move was enough!

In the breathless attention of over a hundred "Dragon Guard" members around, Fang Bai extended his right index finger to meet the punch thrown by Long Shijiu.

"He’s gone mad!"

Seeing Fang Bai confront Long Shijiu’s punch with his finger, the same thought crossed the minds of the "Dragon Guard" members present.

Long Shijiu’s full-force punch, thundering out with the force of a thousand catties, how could Fang Bai’s finger, even if as strong as iron, withstand the violent onslaught of a thousand catties?

Seasoned Earth Level Martial Artists like Long Da and Long Er would never dare to make such a risky move.

However, it was this very delicate finger that, upon contact with Long Shijiu’s punch, brought everything to an abrupt halt.

The faint sonic booms caused by the speed of Long Shijiu’s punch, the fierce wind stirred up by his True Essence Force, and the wild fighting aura emanating from him—all ceased instantly as the finger met the fist.

"How is this possible?"

Silence pervaded the surroundings for several seconds, followed by cries of astonishment.

Yet, an even more impossible event was to follow.

Long Shijiu’s punch was blocked, and he was caught off guard. As he was about to withdraw his punch and change moves, suddenly, a overwhelming force surged from Fang Bai’s fingertip, coursing through his fist like electricity and instantly spreading throughout his body.

Before Long Shijiu could react, his bulky body, weighing more than two hundred catties, had already been lifted by the strong force that penetrated him, like a leaf swept up by a fierce wind, tumbling uncontrollably through the air and falling toward the ground three measures away.

"Shijiu!"

Long Da and Long Er shouted in alarm, worried that Long Shijiu was injured. Without a second thought, both of them moved rapidly, reaching the spot where Long Shijiu was about to fall, and caught his body.

In fact, Fang Bai had no intention of harming Long Shijiu in the first place. When he sent Long Shijiu flying, he used merely a soft force; even if Long Da and Long Er hadn’t reached out to catch him, Long Shijiu would not have been injured, at most he would have landed in an awkward posture.

One move!

With just one move, Fang Bai had defeated Long Shijiu, the "Dragon Guard" member known as "the first under Heaven Level," stunning everyone present.

Long Da and Long Er set down Long Shijiu and checked on him. Seeing he was not injured, they breathed a sigh of relief. When they looked at Fang Bai again, their expressions were filled with a mix of shock and admiration.
