“Shit, this guy is so strong.” Li Xianyu frowned and tried to pull his hand back, but the guy’s massive hand was like an iron clamp, holding his small hand firmly.

The calluses on his hands were very rough, and his fingers were thick. With such a terrible force, this was a master good at close combat. In terms of physical skills and qi cultivation, Li Xianyu was not outstanding enough.

Both parties were not using qi now, and purely using their physical strength against each other. However, Li Xianyu knew that if he were to use qi to put up a resistance, then the other party would also do so without hesitation. If so, he would end up being crushed.

His palm turned white from the impact, and the sharp pain from the squeeze became more and more intense. Li Xianyu knew that his right hand was at its limit. If Eric were to exert more force, the bones in his right hand would fracture.

After trying to resist, he found that the gap between their strength was too wide, and wanted to pull back. However, after trying to pull his hand back a few times, he still failed to do so.

From the audience’s point of view, it was that Li Xianyu chickened out. He tried hard to pull his hand back but the funny thing was that he failed after trying for a few times.

“Pfft~” Laughter came from the American team and the gentlemen struggled to hold back. We have all been trained strictly and can’t laugh unless we can’t help it. They thought.

“Eric, don’t.” Victoria frowned. Li Xianyu was her friend, and they had a good relationship. Meanwhile, Eric was a member of the Association of Superpowered Beings. She was caught in between.

“We are competing about our grip strength.” Eric said openly, and looked at Li Xianyu with a provoking stare. “Aren’t we?”

“Forget it, Eric. It’s their territory,” the members of the team smiled and said.

Although that was what they said, their expressions were elated, and ready to watch the show. The Li family descendant’s status was rather high in China.

Those who knew about the Great Deities Palace were clear about that. A famed figure in China was actually as weak as a child in front of Eric.

The gentlemen were proud.

Xia Xiaoxue pouted and said in a low voice, “How arrogant, I hate the Americans’ cockiness.”

She looked at Great-Grandma, who did not care about her great-grandchild’s plight, and looked down at her mobile phone.

You Mengyu stared at the two men’s clenched hands, and she looked at Li Xianyu’s face turning green. She envied him greatly, and wanted to be in Li Xianyu’s place.

It was a brand new kind of humiliation, but she was a girl, and no one would abuse her like that when shaking hands.

“You are so strong, my right hand is no match for you. Actually, I am left-handed, I don’t have as much strength in my right hand. Eric, why don’t we try changing hands?” Li Xianyu suggested.

Great-Grandma looked down at her mobile phone, with a slight smirk.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady took the initiative to translate, and the long-legged beauty smiled meaningfully.

“NO! NO!” Victoria waved her hand and said anxiously, “Eric, his left hand…”

“My left hand is really great, that most people can’t stand it,” Li Xianyu said confidently, and glared at Victoria subtly.

Hush, or we are no longer friends.

Victoria looked conflicted and silently looked away.

“OK.” Eric finally retracted his right hand, while extending his left hand, which was equally full of calluses and full of power. He was confident in his strength.

Li Xianyu’s strength was shown clearly. Even if he were to change to his left hand, it would only be a slight increase in strength.

After shaking his hand, he had a good understanding of the Li family descendant’s power.

Like most confident Americans, Eric was not humble. Like Western cowboys pointing a gun at each other in a match, if one were to win, one would welcome cheers. If one were to lose, one would accept it graciously.

In the eyes of Xia Xiaoxue and the others, such behaviour was rather rude. However, in the eyes of the American team, this was a unique kind of showdown.

If they were in America, they would begin cheering and not hide the fact that they were watching a show. Thus, they were rather restrained now. However, when they saw Li Xianyu’s dramatic left glove, they laughed raucously.

“China knockoff.” A guy burst out with laughter and was elated.

“Oh, the gloves are spiritual devices, wait a minute.” Li Xianyu back-faced them, and removed the Thanos-glove lookalike. He then put on a plain white glove.

Ever since he became Slime’s host, Li Xianyu had never revealed his arm. Even in the hot summer, he only wore long sleeves or long-sleeved shirts.

He had to hide something like Slime, as it was inappropriate to reveal it public. It was not because of its origin, but because it was too ugly.

It was clear just by looking at Xia Xiaoxue and the other’s faces of disgust and their expressions that were about to vomit, as if they were pregnant ladies. Especially the long-legged beauty. As long as she saw Slime’s true form, she would subconsciously clench her legs together. The emotional trauma and her physical instincts led her to behave like this.

“OK!” Li Xianyu turned back, and stretched out his left hand to hold Eric’s left hand. The two began another round of competition.

Eric immediately exerted force and stared at Li Xianyu’s face. However, he did not see the expected change in expression, and exerted more force but it still didn’t happen….

This wasn’t what he had imagined. Eric stopped showing mercy and exerted full force. The muscles in his left arm expanded, as his sleeves became constricted.

This man had exhibited what were powerful biceps that could outrun a horse.

Li Xianyu’s expression remained unmoving.

“Hmm, no reaction? Is he faking it?”

“Eric showed mercy. It’s not good that we humiliate others utterly.”

The American team was stunned. They saw the protruding veins in Eric’s arm, and his face that was turning red. Thus, they knew that their conclusion of Eric showing mercy did not hold true.

Eric was clear about his own situation. He felt like he wasn’t shaking someone’s hand, but fighting against a block of iron. He couldn’t even twist the hand in the glove.

“Do you want to try your luck?” Li Xianyu smiled.

Why does he look so at ease…

The next second, Eric’s expression changed slightly, as Li Xianyu exerted force. The thick and rough left hand was suddenly gripped tightly, as the sound of bones creaked. He also had a taste of Li Xianyu’s suffering just now.

Li Xianyu didn’t just exert force all the way. He alternated between loosening his grip and clenching it tight, increasing the friction between Eric’s bones.

After hanging in there for half a minute, Eric’s face went from red to pale, and finally chose to concede.

“I… I admit defeat…” As he spoke, the crowd suddenly became silent.

The gentlemen from America looked at each other, and Li Xianyu also asked in a gentlemanly way, “I didn’t hurt you, did I?”

Eric held his left wrist with his right hand and his left arm was still shaking. The company around him greeted him with uncertain concerns and asked him what had happened.

“Thank you,” Victoria walked up to Li Xianyu and whispered.

“What are you thanking me for?”

“Thank you for your mercy,” Victoria replied. Li Xianyu could have crushed Eric’s metacarpal completely. She had seen the horror of the left hand, but Li Xianyu didn’t choose to do so. If his metacarpal was shattered, Eric could only heal during the conference.

Now his left hand swelled and looked miserable, but he could recover in a few hours, thanks to Eric’s fitness.

“We’re friends. I can’t embarrass you.” Li Xianyu winked at her.

Victoria was slightly stunned, and there was a small wave in her blue eyes that resembled a sea.

Li Xianyu restrained himself and left with his harem. He couldn’t flirt too obviously. If not his harem would think he was scum. Great-Grandma would also criticize his morals with words like “how could he fancy a Caucasian lady.”

Victoria watched them leave and returned to Eric. “Are you alright? I told you not to shake hands with him. You just didn’t listen and insisted on doing it.”

Eric was indignant. “There’s something wrong with his hand. I suspect that he’s using a superpower, like your Steel Body, Victoria.”

Realization dawned on the person beside them. “That’s why he had to wear gloves?”

Ryder shook his head. “His superpower is self-healing. It’s impossible for people to have two superpowers.”

Victoria said exasperatedly, “It’s good that you have learned your lesson, Eric. You have got too much talent, and rarely encountered obstacles.”

“Haven’t you thought before that your teacher wanted you to come to China to train you, not give you the chance to show off? The Li family descendant is a Gokudo inheritor and you can’t underestimate the power of a Gokudo inheritor.”

“It’s just that you lost in terms of arm strength, it’s not really a loss. Don’t be discouraged,” someone encouraged.

The preliminary match was officially over before noon. The second stage of the competition will be held in the afternoon, with the number of participants shrinking from 1,200 to 600.

For the average contestant, they just had to persist for two more rounds, and this Forum Conference would have been worth coming.

There was a list of top 100 in the conference. As long as one could make it into the list, they achieved their goal of being famous.

Although the top 100 didn’t seem much, it was national. Even if one went home and were in the last 100, one could declare proudly that they’re on the list.

It was a great entry on the CV, and no matter if one operated solo or joined a family, they had a great career progress in front of them. In addition, the top 100 could more or less receive a reward from the Buddhist society.

At noon, Li Xianyu followed his great-grandmother to the hillside business district for dinner, where it was full of people. They were not allowed to kill or eat meat in Lianghua Temple, so even hiding in the room to cook a hot pot was banned.

The monks’ noses were more brilliant than the dogs, and as soon as they found out, they would be driven out of Lianghua Temple.

It was worth mentioning that the meat stalls in the commercial district need to pay a fee for “the removal of sins”, otherwise Lianghua Temple would not allow the sale of meat. Thus, the price was insanely expensive.

After dinner, on the way back to the temple, Li Xianyu told You Mengyu and Xia Xiaoxue, “Each of you pay me back 500 dollars.”

“Why? It’s your great-grandmother’s treat.” Xia Xiaoxue disagreed.

“Scram. You have eaten more than two thousand of my money yesterday, and today you’re still eating, aren’t you ashamed? At the end of the conference, you two would have eaten tens of thousands of my dollars.”

Li Xianyu spat. “I have never seen such a brazen person.”

“Boo…”

Li Xianyu was so done, as he couldn’t get his money back. Can’t you two learn from Liu Kongchao? Go mix with the people from headquarters.

Old Comrade Liu was very smart, as he first went to the branch to get food, but there weren’t any leaders who came from the branch. There were only some staff who came spontaneously, who of course, couldn’t afford his meals.

Thus, he very shamelessly mixed with the members from the headquarters. His food and accommodation fees were paid fully by Lightning King.

The competition began at two o’clock in the afternoon, and the situation was a little different today. A lot of foreigners have arrived.

From time to time, a few blue-eyed, yellow-haired foreigners, as well as many people from Southeast Asia, and black people can be seen among the Chinese with dark hair and yellow complexion.

“Oh, the Forum Conference is an international competition?” Li Xianyu was amazed.

“No, these foreigners are all coming for the Great Deities Palace. They are just joining the fun by attending the conference. It’s like if you travel to Southeast Asia and encounter the local water splashing festival, you cannot help but pick up the basin to go splash water too.”

The perverted little girl explained, and proudly raised the melon seeds in her hand. “Great-Grandma bought this.”

Realization dawned on Li Xianyu. “Yes, I would join in the fun too. So the American team isn’t the only one.”

There was, of course, an opportunity to compete. The demon descendants all over the world liked to fight. Scarlet light in the pupils were a standard mark for all demon descendants.

Li Xianyu snatched the melon seeds over, and the perverted girl was so mad that she kicked him. After being glared at, she retreated to Great-Grandma’s side.

One always had to spend money if they were the Big Brother. If one didn’t spend money, how would others recognize one as the Big Brother? Great-Grandma gradually established her authority as Big Brother.

Not long after, he saw Eric enter the ring. Eric’s opponent was a Buddhist disciple. When the two people stood in the ring, one was a young thin monk who was 1.7 meters tall. Eric was almost two meters tall, and was bulky and muscular.

The size difference between Asians and Europeans was in stark contrast.

“Isn’t it just for fun, why did he go to the ring?” Li Xianyu wondered.

“Lianghua Temple explained that this is a small privilege for our foreign friends.” Sakurai Yukinako came by with a watermelon and sat next to him. “Didn’t you read the notice on the notice board?”

“Who’s going to read that kind of thing?” Li Xianyu was startled. “When did you come over?”

He didn’t notice anyone approaching himself at all.

“That’s why you can only be a red shirt who charges out first, you can’t be a commander-in-chief.” Yukinako whipped out a knife and cut the watermelon, passing a piece to Li Xianyu.

“Hey, thank you.”

In the hot summer, it was great to eat watermelon. Is this a girl a watermelon spirit? Why is she eating watermelon every time I see her? Li Xianyu thought.

Sakurai Yukinako munched on her watermelon. “Eric is very strong, in my heart, he is the same level as me. The monk is bound to lose.”

Li Xianyu appraised her. “You?”

Sakurai Yukinako declared shamelessly, “I’m on the same level as Jie Se.”

This Japanese girl was a little narcissistic, he could tell last time.

“By the way, why are you always approaching me? What are your intentions?” Li Xianyu frowned.

“Of course I have intentions. I haven’t studied you thoroughly yet. Last time I talked about the weakness of the Dan Chenzi and Jie Se. This time, I’ll tell you more about Eric’s weakness.”

“He’s proud, arrogant, and prone to despise the enemy. You Chinese have a saying called ‘the lion still fights the rabbit with full strength.’ Eric’s arrogance is his greatest character weakness. When fighting with him, just pretend to be weak.” Yukinako flipped her hair back.

Li Xianyu’s eyes lit up. Sakurai Yukinako’s looks were very cute, and she was an adorable girl. If her sharp chin was rounder, she would be even cuter.

“If you want to find out more about me, it’s simple. Want to try being my girlfriend?” Li Xianyu chuckled.

“I’m not losing out.”

“Alright, let’s make babies tonight.”

“Do you like boys or girls?”

“I’ll like them as long as they are yours.”

“Baka, what high expectations.”

‘San Wu, come over…”

A woman’s mouth has to be dealt with by a woman.
