I Am Not The Machine King

Chapter 14: Difference in Strength

"Eighty percent."

"Shall we try?"

Lin Yuan smiled, his eyes shining with a strong fighting spirit.

"Okay!"

"You're serious now."

The smiles of the two gradually disappeared, and their spirit energy circulated.

Lin Yuan clenched his fists, his body slightly lowered, and he put on a defensive posture!

Since Lin Yuan said eighty percent, then Wu Di would have to take it seriously, but he would not risk his life.

The difference in spirit energy between the two sides was not small.

Lin Yuan was a level two six-meridians martial artist, and his total amount of spirit energy had not been tested.

According to Lin Yuan's estimation, it was between 60 to 70.

Wu Di was a level two eleven-meridians martial artist.

He was just one step away from breaking through the twelfth meridian and advancing to a level three martial artist.

The two sides seemed to have a huge difference of five meridians and spirit energy, but it was not that they could not fight at Meridian Opening Realm.

A martial artist at Meridian Opening Realm would at most know some basic spirit skills, but they could not achieve the materialization of their attributes.

For example, a fire-type martial artist could not condense a flame when they were at the Meridian Opening Realm, so they could only use the fire-type spirit energy.

After reaching the third level, the gap between martial artists would gradually be widened.

...

"I'm coming."

Wu Di took a deep breath and held the wooden knife tightly in his right hand.

The spirit seed was activated instantly, and the lightning-type spirit energy surrounded his feet.

Wu Di exerted force with both of his legs, and with a flash, he shot toward Lin Yuan at an astonishing speed!

"Lightning Footwork!"

Whoosh!

The astonishing speed brought with it the sound of air being torn apart. The speed was even faster than Lin Yuan had imagined.

This sparring was not a duel of Basic Martial Arts, but a duel between real martial artists.

Speed was the greatest advantage of a lightning-type martial artist.

In the past three months, Lin Yuan had not seen Wu Di use his Lightning Footwork at full force. He was not aware that Wu Di's Lightning Footwork had improved significantly during this period.

"So fast."

Seeing Wu Di's figure rapidly approaching, Lin Yuan's reaction was very fast. He slightly moved his feet, but his boxing was not messy.

After moving to the right side, he chose to dodge first.

After cultivating the mechanical-type spirit seed, his mental strength and concentration had increased. In addition to Lin Yuan's sensitivity to the battle and his ability to catch opportunities, this battle was not without leeway.

Swoosh!

Wu Di stepped on the ground with his right foot, and his agile body turned toward Lin Yuan like lightning.

The wooden knife in his hand followed the momentum and slashed towards Lin Yuan. The speed was so fast that Lin Yuan could not dodge at all!

"Too fast!"

"I can't compete with my feet!"

The biggest difference between the two sides was their speed, and it was even more obvious than the difference between their spirit energy.

The six meridians that Lin Yuan had opened were the three Yin and three Yang meridians in his hand, but none in his foot had been opened.

As for Wu Di, only the one in his hand had not been opened, and all six meridians in his foot had been opened.

Just this alone was enough to show the difference in speed between them. This was not even mentioning the lightning-type spirit seed, which was good at speed.

After two rounds of confrontation, Lin Yuan's biggest feeling was that his speed could not keep up with his brain.

He could clearly sense which direction Wu Di was going to attack from when Wu Di attacked, but because of the difference in speed, he could not avoid it at all!

If Lin Yuan was a fire-type martial artist at this moment, his chances of winning against Wu Di with eleven meridians were almost zero.

However, Lin Yuan was of mechanical-type at this moment, there was still another way.

"Mechanization!"

The mechanical-type spirit energy circulated, and the grade-one spirit iron on Lin Yuan's body instantly disintegrated and condensed, appearing in his right hand.

Lin Yuan found the right time, and his right hand changed from a fist to a palm, grabbing the wooden knife that Wu Di had fiercely chopped down in the air!

At the same time, with his right foot as the pivot, he turned 180 degrees and kicked his left foot to the side of Wu Di's body. As he flew in the air, he quickly mechanized.

"Mechanized Iron Foot!"

Lin Yuan's progress in the past month was amazing.

Besides the Mechanized Iron Fist, Lin Yuan was also familiar with the Mechanized Iron Foot.

In addition to the level one spirit iron mechanical energy in his hands and feet, this was the first phase of Lin Yuan's training plan!

Facing Lin Yuan's iron feet, Wu Di was shocked.

While he lowered his waist to dodge the kick, his right hand was still holding the wooden knife tightly. His left hand condensed lightning-type spirit energy and rushed toward Lin Yuan's shoulder!

Bang!

With a loud muffled sound, the two of them exchanged a punch in the air. The difference in spirit energy made Lin Yuan suffer a loss in this attack. He retreated five steps before he could stabilize his body!

Hideously pain was seen on Wu Di's face.

He was not at a disadvantage in a head-on confrontation, but Lin Yuan was using his Spirit Iron Fist.

With this hardness, even if Wu Di used his spirit knife, he might not be able to break it. One could imagine how painful it was to fight with his bare hands!

"Ah!"

Wu Di roared as if he was venting.

However, the battle was not over. His body did not stop.

The moment he landed on the ground, the soles of his feet flatten against the ground. The tips of his feet were slightly tilted outward. He adjusted his direction and his entire body burst out with astonishing speed once again.

Then, he held the wooden knife in his hand and chose to attack Lin Yuan's waist!

...

No matter how Wu Di complained, he still followed Lin Yuan and practiced the Basic Martial Arts for three years.

The Basic Martial Arts were the basics of martial artist combat and the ability to judge the situation of the battle.

When Lin Yuan's speed was completely inferior to his, attacking Lin Yuan's waist could force Lin Yuan to defend and keep him in a passive position.

The atmosphere of the battle in the courtyard was extremely serious.

As the two of them fought, Lin Yuan had long realized the result.

"I can't win."

Lin Yuan's current fighting style was the fighting style of a "combat master".

He could barely fight with Wu Di for a while with his mechanized martial arts.

However, there was a huge gap between their speed and spirit energy, so Lin Yuan could never find a chance to win.

With Wu Di's speed and reaction, he could easily dodge Lin Yuan's attack.

If they were to fight head-on...

Wu Di's fist might hurt a little, but it was still Lin Yuan who was at a disadvantage.

This was the difference in their physical strength.

The difference between five meridians was not so easy to smooth out.

The only way for Lin Yuan to defeat Wu Di was to condense a spirit iron weapon.

However, it was meaningless.

After all, Wu Di used a wooden knife, not a spiritual weapon.

...

Even if Wu Di did not use his full strength, he was still able to fight to his heart's content.

At least he was not as restrained as when he sparred with Lin Yuan, not daring to release his spirit energy.

Just like that, the bottleneck of the twelfth meridian, which had been bothering Wu Di, loosened!

Wu Di's body shook. He suddenly felt the changes in his body.

He took a few steps back while he sat cross-legged on the ground and began to circulate his spirit energy with all his might!

Lin Yuan, who was about to admit defeat in the battle, was suddenly stunned. He looked at Wu Di, who had a slight fluctuation of lightning-type spirit energy on the surface of his body. Apparently, Wu Di had entered a breakthrough state. He said in surprise, "You're going to break through?"

"So fast?"

"That son of a b*tch. He said that he always worked hard."

Lin Yuan gradually smiled and shook his head.

Wu Di had indeed worked hard in the past month. Lin Yuan could see it clearly.

Apparently, he also realized that the College Entrance Examination was coming and felt a little urgent.

Generally speaking, it was already very outstanding to be able to break through to a level three martial artist before the College Entrance Examination.

There were still four or five months before the College Entrance Examination. To be able to break through to a level three martial artist at this point, Wu Di's talent was indeed top-notch.
