With one Fire Technique Ascending Dragon move, Ye Qingzhou secured 5 points, directly achieving 10 points with an unbeatable stance, seizing the top position.

People around showed expressions of shock, gazing at Ye Qingzhou getting a full score incredulously.

Ye Qingzhou looked at Xu Yuebing and the other teammates: "I'll go ahead first, you follow right after."

"Alright."

Xu Yuebing nodded.

Then, Ye Qingzhou transformed into a beam of white light and was transported to the third challenge, Unmoving Stronghold.

What appeared before him was a magnificently scaled city, with five walls towering like mountains, standing imposing in Ye Qingzhou's view.

Each city wall had a city gate around ten meters high.

On both sides of the city gate stood two gigantic Bronze Giants over six meters tall, wielding large long-handled sabers, exuding majesty and a murderous aura on their faces.

The rule of this challenge was to only use Mountain Technique skills to defend against the slashes of the Bronze Giants.

Ye Qingzhou stepped forward towards the city gate of the Unmoving Stronghold.

As he approached, the Bronze Giants on both sides of the city gate seemed to come to life, their eyes rotating, and the gemstone-engraved pupils focused on Ye Qingzhou.

At this moment, two more beams of white light flashed, and Huang Dengfeng and Zhang Shousi also arrived at the third challenge.

They quickly learned the rules of this challenge and then looked towards Ye Qingzhou.

"Ye Qingzhou, the champion of this Cyan Wave Sword Fighting Competition, his Wind Force and Fire Technique have both reached the Perfection Realm, he's simply a monster."

Huang Dengfeng also knew the news of Ye Qingzhou scoring fully in Chaotic Wind Canyon by now, with a complex feeling.

Zhang Shousi couldn't help but sigh: "In this assessment, the first is definitely him, it seems we can only compete for second now."

Both of them are geniuses whom ordinary people can only look up to, with Huang Dengfeng achieving Great Success in Mountain Technique and mastering Wind Force, wielding a Deep Gold Spear, he had never been defeated in the prestigious schools of Zhaoling City.

As for Zhang Shousi, he came from a famous school, achieving Great Success in Forest Technique, mastering Thunderous techniques, possessing the Cloud Hand Six Techniques as combat skills, wielding a black and white Yin Yang Dual Rings, he was hailed as the first among the younger generation of the Cloud Hand Sect.

But as geniuses as they are, at this moment, they encountered a talent they can only look up to in their life, someone who trained both Wind Force and Fire Technique to Perfection Realm, Ye Qingzhou appeared already somewhat inhumanly strong in their eyes.

"I heard Ye Qingzhou is only seventeen this year, in the next year, surely all Martial Arts talents in Xiang Province will be overshadowed by his brilliance."

"Indeed, such a person makes one feel hopeless."

Huang Dengfeng and Zhang Shousi, originally full of ambition, unfortunately met someone they shouldn't have, Ye Qingzhou's presence seemed like a mountain standing before them.

"He's starting the challenge."

Huang Dengfeng's gaze fixed on Ye Qingzhou's back.

And Zhang Shousi asked, "How many points do you think he can get in this round?"

Hearing this, Huang Dengfeng guessed through gritted teeth: "3 points, no more than that."

After all, Ye Qingzhou already got full marks in Wind Force and Fire Technique, his Mountain Technique couldn't be that strong, could it?

However, true unparalleled geniuses always defy common logic.

By this point, Ye Qingzhou had already arrived before the city gate, entering the attack range of the Bronze Giants.

Click click~

The sound of gears turning suddenly arose, followed by a fierce wind accompanying a mighty slash, strong enough to break mountains and sever peaks.

A flash of sharp white light came and went, the saber whistling towards Ye Qingzhou.

Clang~

The huge saber slashed down on Ye Qingzhou's shoulder, emitting a resonating noise as if striking an iron block instead of a human being.

"What strong defense!"

"It's Rattling Iron Bones!"

"I've also practiced Rattling Iron Bones, and it's not that outrageous."

Huang Dengfeng and Zhang Shousi exclaimed in shock, especially Huang Dengfeng, whose Martial Bone, like Ye Qingzhou's, was Rattling Iron Bones.

He couldn't have known that Ye Qingzhou's Rattling Iron Bones was forged using a piece of Earth Treasure-level Divine Gold, with a strong and indestructible quality.

Afterward, more and more white light flashed, and more people appeared at the third challenge, Unmoving Stronghold, all starting to watch Ye Qingzhou progressing through the gates.

The crowd stood on a high slope, just enough to overlook all five city gates.

"Ye Qingzhou has started the second city gate!"

"Damn, he's taking it head-on again, is he really made of iron?"

"This is Copper Skin and Iron Bones."

A group of Martial Arts rookies were at this moment all astounded by Ye Qingzhou's physical strength.

Everyone speculated whether Ye Qingzhou's Mountain Technique too had reached Perfection Realm, otherwise, how could he withstand the slashes of the Bronze Giants unharmed with just Rattling Iron Bones?

At the third city gate, the attacks from the Bronze Giants began to change.

Not only did the force of the slashes significantly increase, but they also contained a certain vibration.

This vibration could penetrate through the body's defense, reaching directly to the internal organs, causing severe internal injuries.

At least a mastery realm of Mountain Technique was required to block such a vibration.

Clang~

Despite this, Ye Qingzhou still chose to withstand it with his body, his Rattling Iron Bones continuously stimulated his internal Sword Qi to resist the vibration force within the slashes.

He withstood it!

Ye Qingzhou exhaled a long breath, then noticed that his muscles and bones seemed to become more solid and tough after enduring the slash's vibration.

"Hmm?"

Through his innovative and subtle control, Ye Qingzhou also detected the slight changes inside his body: "The toughness of tendons and bones have slightly improved, about only a 1% increase, without my keen observation, I might not have noticed."

Soon Ye Qingzhou's eyes lit up, realizing that taking just two slashes could enhance his body's strength, proving much stronger than painstakingly training.

Then, under everyone's gaze, Ye Qingzhou stopped, did not continue challenging, but instead returned, once more stepping into the third city gate.

Clang~

The emotionless Bronze Giants clearly had no intelligence, they attacked any creature daring to step within their range, immediately slashing Ye Qingzhou on his body.

This utterly confounded the Martial Arts rookies spectating outside.

"What's Ye Qingzhou doing?"

"Could it be that he has a masochistic tendency and enjoys being abused?"

"Is he intentionally seeking a beating?"

At that moment, there were discussions outside the challenge gates with everyone expressing that they couldn't comprehend Ye Qingzhou's intentions.

Ye Qingzhou seemed to transform into Fang Tangjing of the Martial Arts, repeatedly advancing and retreating, letting the Bronze Giants launch attacks on him.

The huge saber at this time was like a Big Iron Hammer, constantly striking Ye Qingzhou, making clanging sounds ring continuously in the air.

The two Bronze Giants each slashed him twice per round, and after a hundred rounds, taking two hundred slashes, Ye Qingzhou not only remained unharmed but seemed more invigorated with each strike.

"The toughness of tendons and bones directly doubled, the vibration techniques embedded in the slashes obviously have the effect of Muscle Strengthening Bone Forging."

Ye Qingzhou continued to take slashes, and already unconsciously learned the secret technique embedded in the Bronze Giants' sword techniques.
