Chapter 191 - The Limits

Translated by Luxican

The practice fields of the Wu Xuan Peerless Hall were decorated with various weightlifting tools, which were used to improve the arm strength of the disciples.

In other Martial Halls on the continent, the stone lions were the only weightlifting tools, but in Wu Xuan Peerless Hall, there were three types of stone beasts, namely, the stone lion (200 jin =120 kg) made of polished Nanshan stone, the iron bull (500 jin = 300 kg) made of refined iron, and the golden lead elephant (1,000 jin = 600 kg) forged from a mixture of gold and lead.

In the Great Zhou Empire, ordinary and healthy men could all lift stones weighing 50 jin (= 30 kg), but to enter the Wu Xuan Peerless Hall, both men and women must at least be able to lift stone lions weighing 100 jin (= 60 kg).

After training in the Martial Hall for several years, the warriors had to lift at least 200 jin stone lions. But if you wanted to join the inner court, they would need to lift the 500 jin iron bull.

Luo Qing was a disciple of the outer court. She naturally knew this rule, but Yun Sheng didn't. Yun Sheng only found out after Elder Miao explained it

"Magician, let me remind you again, you can choose any other contest. With your physique, I'm afraid you won't even be able to know how much 200 jin is, right?" Luo Qing laughed.

Yun Sheng seemed to turn a deaf ear to her mocking. She just approached the lions, bulls and elephants, and muttered in her heart, "Bobo said that after his advancement, he could merge with me and there were two techniques I could use. One is Flight, which is gaining wings. The other one is Strange Power, but, how big was this Strange Power? Is it 200 jin or 500 jin or 1,000 jin?"

Tonight, she challenged Luo Qing to spar, because she understood that, with the magic lock holding her down, she would need a different way to assert dominance in the outer court.

And Luo Qing just happened to send herself to Yun Sheng's doorstep at that time.

There was nothing more convincing than defeating the 21st ranked disciple of the outer court.

When Luo Qing first issued this challenge, Yun Sheng immediately thought of Bobo's Strange Power.

Yun Sheng had used Flight last time at Inaba Mountain, but she hadn't had the chance to try Strange Power, tonight would be the best opportunity.

After her first analysis, she deducted that, because Luo Qing still stayed in the outer court, she could lift the iron bull at most.

Yun Sheng was in no hurry to merge with Bobo. 200 jin were nothing to her, who had broken through the third meridian!

Yun Sheng's odd calmness caused Luo Qing to became a bit wary.

This female magician was very peculiar. Could it be she really was sure to defeat her? Luo Qing was secretly surprised that the ridiculing crowd around them didn't faze Yun Sheng at all.

This person was too calm.

Seeing no further objections from either side, Elder Miao continued: "Since there is no problem, I'll announce the rules of this competition: It is divided into three rounds: starting with the lion, following with the bull, and ending with the elephant. You can try to lift them however you see fit. But after being lifted, they have to be held up for at least 15 minutes to pass. Now the competition begins, Luo Qing will start."

Even the fair and impartial Elder Miao, at this moment, still favored the martial disciple.

This action of Luo Qing lifting first would put a lot of psychological pressure on Yun Sheng, possibly causing her to lose momentum even before her turn.

"Then I'll go first," said Luo Qing. She provocatively walked up to the waist-high stone lion.

She didn't use her hands, instead, she raised her foot, gently placing her toes under the lion's belly. Without any hesitation, the lion was kicked up into the air by her like a ball.

When the lion fell back down, Luo Qing extended her left hand and caught it without any issues. She held it up for 15 minutes before putting it down on the ground again.

The whole process looked so easy and carefree as if the 200 jin stone lion was just a light ball in Luo Qing's eyes.

There was a round of applause, it's not a big deal to lift a stone lion with their arms, but kicking them up with just one foot is something not everyone could do, she even caught it with her left hand and held it for 15 minutes.

Luo Qing's first round was a resounding win.

In this way, a lot of psychological pressure was put on Yun Sheng. Yun Sheng only smiled slightly and slowly walked to the stone lion.

She stood in front of the lion and made a graceful lifting action.

The mysterious meridians inside her stirred, and a mysterious power gathered in Yun Sheng's hands. She lifted the 200 jin stone lion high above her head. 15 minutes passed before she put it down again, the crowd was stunned!

"She did it! Wow, even though she is a magician, she has a lot of strength!"

The surroundings burst into discussions, a few of the warriors couldn't help but clap at her achievement.

After all, in their eyes, magicians were synonyms for "dead weight", it was unexpected that the female magician was able to unleash such strength.

Luo Qing still had a calm expression on her face, as if it didn't matter whether Yun Sheng could lift the lion or not.

"In the second round, the 500 jin bull will be lifted, this time the disciple Yun Sheng will start," Elder Miao was a bit surprised by this outcome, but announced the next round quickly. He wondered whether the Royal Magic Academy had changed its training plan. How could their magicians be so fit?

Stepping towards the iron bull Yun Sheng shook her arm which had become a bit numb. Now the weight would suddenly be multiplied by 2.5 times. With this, if she was back in modern times, she could easily become a weightlifting champion.

After arriving at the 500 jin bull, Yun Sheng was in a daze for a moment.

"To merge or not to merge? 500 jin should already be Luo Qing's limit, but where is mine?" After opening her third mysterious meridian, Yun Sheng felt a vigorous vitality in her limbs. After pondering for a short moment, Yun Sheng finally decided to continue relying on her own strength to lift the 500 jin bull.

Yun Sheng hugged the iron bull against her body, the bull was similar in height with the lion, but its smooth body made of iron was difficult to lift.

2,5 times, it really was heavy, Yun Sheng tried to lift it, but the bull only shook a bit.

Behind her, countless eyes were staring at Yun Sheng. If the female magician lifted it up again this time, that would really be against the sky!

Yun Sheng took a deep breath, a crystal in the Shen Nong Jade Bracelet on her wrist flashed.

Almost at the same time, the jade marrow energy in her mysterious meridians surged wildly!

"Up!" With a shout, the nearly 500 jin iron bullwas lifted above Yun Sheng's head
