Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 44: Fierce Battle

Chapter 44: Chapter 44: Fierce Battle

The authority in Ellis Lynch’s voice was impeccable.

Despite his young age, he carried the demeanor of someone in power.

Bodhi Lynch took a deep breath and didn’t dare to speak out again. But his icy gaze still riveted on Wyatt, as if zeroing in on his prey.

Wyatt noticed Bodhi’s gaze, but paid no mind to it.

This Bodhi had a similar strength level to Ayan Lee, posing no threat to him.

His gaze shifted to Ellis Lynch.

"If you want to fight, so be it!"

Wyatt smiled at Keer, asked her to step back to Maya’s side, then he stepped forward and faced Ellis Lynch.

The disciples of the Lynch family all withdrew several steps, leaving a large space in the middle.

After all, this was the largest market in Aurora City, and soon a large crowd of spectators were drawn to the scene.

"I heard that this green-clad lad is called ’Ellis Lynch,’ the son of the Lynch Clan Chief."

"Ellis Lynch? I’ve heard of him. He’s the top of his generation in the Lynch Family. Just seventeen, he’s already reached the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm and has mastered three high-level Profound techniques."

"Three high-level Profound techniques? My goodness... The Lynch family sure has invested a lot on him."

"Who is the one confronting him?"

"Seems to be someone from an affiliated branch of the Lee Family."

...

The whispering crowd watched the spectacle unfold.

Wyatt gazed at Ellis, seriousness carved on his face.

He felt some pressure facing Ellis.

It’s important to know, even when he was facing Strength Garcia, the housekeeper of Garcia Clan of Qingfeng Town, who was at the first level of the Condensed Pill Realm, he didn’t feel any pressure at all.

In other words, this Ellis, seemed to be even more dangerous than Strength Garcia!

It made sense.

Certainly, the best martial arts technique that the three big families of Qingfeng Town have is at most a high-level Yellow technique in attack.

Regarding the movement technique, none of them had one, before Wyatt gave the Lee family one.

For the three big families, defensive techniques are even more unreachable.

With his reincarnated Martial Emperor’s memory. Wyatt was aware.

Although the martial arts are divided into the Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow tiers, the lowly Yellow tier merely contained offensive techniques, but had no defensive or movement techniques.

The worst movement techniques and defensive techniques on the Cloud Skies Continent are at least low-level Profound techniques.

Swish!

As if by agreement, both Wyatt and Ellis moved at the same time.

Spiritual Snake Body Method!

Wyatt moved elegantly, every movement full of flexible beauty.

His speed made most of the people in attendance exclaim in admiration.

Ellis moved like phantasmal shadows. One could even argue that he wouldn’t leave a trace even if he skimmed through the snow.

Unmarked Snow Step!

A high-level Profound movement technique.

"Where did this Wyatt come from? Since when does the Lee family have such a person? His speed is not slower than brother Ellis’ Unmarked Snow Step."

"Brother Ellis’ Unmarked Snow Step is a high-level Profound movement technique. He has managed to cultivate it to the beginner level, which is equivalent to a mid-level Profound technique that is fully developed, or even a low-level Profound technique that is at the perfect level!"

"Unbelievable, other than Kamden Lee of the Lee Family and Melody Sinclair of the Sinclair family, there is actually a peer that can compare to Brother Ellis in terms of movement technique!"

"Humph! This Wyatt is only at the eight level of Body Tempering Realm. Haven’t you noticed that brother Ellis is just playing with him by suppressing his strength at the eight level too?"

"If you didn’t mention it, I wouldn’t have noticed. Brother Ellis at the moment has not invoked the power of the heaven and earth, manifesting the shadow of ancient giant elephants."

...

The disciples of the Lynch family wore smug expressions.

As if the one who exchanged moves with Wyatt and matched his speed, was not Ellis, but themselves.

"Wyatt, take this!"

Ellis suddenly roared.

Whoosh!

The chilling sound of wind.

Ellis threw a mighty slap with his right hand, which to the naked eye, transformed into numerous afterimages, looming over Wyatt.

A dozen or so afterimages fell down. It seemed almost impossible to discern which one was the real attack.

If the judgment were wrong, it would undoubtedly lead to a crisis.

"It’s the high-level Profound attack technique, Overlapping Shadows Technique, a famous technique in the Lynch family!"

"I heard that the Overlapping Shadows Technique, when mastered to the perfect realm, could create ninety-nine afterimages..."

"Ellis is truly the youthful talent of the Lynch Family. At just seventeen, he has already cultivated the Overlapping Shadows Technique to the beginner realm."

...

Among the crowd, there were several people whose eyesight was sharp.

"This is a high-level Profound attack technique!"

Wyatt had a thought in his heart.

Through the memories of his reincarnated Martial Emperor, he also learned a lot about high-level Profound attack techniques.

Compared to mid-level Profound attack techniques, high-level Profound attack techniques are a qualitative change. They were not merely stronger, but also specialized in confusing the opponent before delivering the thunderous blow.

Suddenly, with a flicker of his mind, Wyatt’s eyes narrowed. With his past-life experience of surviving in the field of gunshots and bullets, he could discern from the dozens of afterimages, the one palm strike that actually carried killing intent.

Collapsing Fist!

Wyatt pulled both arms backward, then threw a direct punch with his right fist at one of the afterimages.

Smack!

His fist collided with a palm.

In a split second, both Ellis and Wyatt were shaken. Wyatt took three steps back, while Ellis took five.

The onlookers were all dumbstruck.

Ellis had suppressed his power to the eight level of Body Tempering Realm, but it seemed that he still had the disadvantage.

"Your strength is even more superior than those typically at the eighth level of the Body Tempering Realm."

Ellis Lynch glanced at Wyatt Barnes in amazement.

A faint smile surfaced on Wyatt’s face.

Since he started practicing the Nine Dragons War Sovereign technique, with each level he breached, his strength would outclass those at the same level.

As it is now.

A typical martial artist at the eighth level of the Body-Tempering Realm, carries a colossal strength of five thousand pounds.

As for him, he carries more than seven thousand pounds.

"Ha-ha... Charismatic! I knew you were exceptional. You saw through my genuine palm technique, the only other ones in Aurora City who have managed this besides you are Kamden Lee and Melody Sinclair. However, since your strength exceeds that of a regular eighth-level Body Tempering Realm martial artist, I will increase my strength to match yours!"

Ellis Lynch laughed heartily, appearing extremely delighted.

"Let’s go again!"

Ellis Lynch’s figure flickered, darting out.

Untraceable Step in Snow!

This time, both he and Wyatt refrained from brute force confrontation but moved swiftly, seeking each other’s weaknesses to defeat the other.

Spiritual Snake Body Method!

Collapsing Fist!

Wyatt transformed into a spiritual snake, darting around, and when the opportunity presented itself, he lunged a punch into Ellis Lynch’s body.

However, the power of the Collapsing Fist couldn’t dominate Ellis Lynch’s Overlapping Shadows Technique in a head-on collision.

But speaking of combat experience, Ellis Lynch lagged far behind Wyatt.

Being the strongest Weapon King from his past life on Earth, his combat experience put him on a different level compared to Ellis.

Boom!

A punch landed on the defensive energy that emerged on Ellis Lynch’s body.

Instantaneously, Wyatt felt a jolt in his right fist as if he had hit a turtle shell, affected by the impact of the counter shock.

Grand Displacement!

Without any hesitation, Wyatt wielded his defensive martial arts technique!

Fighting fire with fire.

He channelled the shock from the counterforce back to Ellis Lynch.

The counter shock was, after all, derived from Ellis Lynch’s defensive energy, so his energy did not reject it...

Ellis’ body trembled, hit by the counter shock similar to a lightning strike, and he awkwardly retreated to one side.

"What is that defensive martial arts technique of yours?"

Ellis Lynch stared at Wyatt Barnes as if he had seen a ghost.

Although surprised by Wyatt’s combat experience, what shocked him even more was Wyatt’s defensive martial technique.

This technique was able to deflect the strength from his defensive martial technique ’Mystic Turtle Transformation’ back to him in its entirety.

The counter shock originated from his defensive energy, but when returned by Wyatt’s defensive martial technique, his energy didn’t resist at all, causing him to be at a disadvantage.

Wyatt’s defensive martial arts technique countered his technique perfectly.

"Give it your best shot. There’s no need to suppress your strength anymore. If we proceed this way, you are sure to lose!"

Wyatt squinted his eyes, speaking slowly.

"Alright. I never expected there to be someone besides Kamden Lee and Melody Sinclair among my peers from the three large families in Aurora City, who could force me to go all out... Watch yourself. I’ll use all my strength equivalent to an ancient giant elephant which is nearly three thousand pounds stronger than your power!"

Ellis Lynch laughed heartily.

Of course, he knew what Wyatt had said was true.

Considering Wyatt’s mimble combat experience and his technique to counter the defence, he’s capable of defeating him who suppresses his strength to be on the same level as Wyatt.

Instantly, Ellis’ muscles swelled.

Upon his head, the power between heaven and earth stirred, and a phantom of an ancient giant elephant loomed.

"This Wyatt Barnes is a real monster, being at the eighth level of Body Tempering Realm, he could compel Brother Lynch to exert his full strength."

"Even if he loses in today’s match, it’s a matter of honor for Wyatt."

"That’s right. Brother Lynch, just a while ago, restrained his strength to be at the same level as him and still fell into a disadvantage. We can infer from this that if one day he breaks through to the ninth level of Body Tempering Realm, Brother Lynch might not be able to beat him."

...

The somewhat dazed Lynch Family juniors cast their eyes on Wyatt Barnes.

On the other hand, the Lee Family juniors beamed with delight.

Wyatt Barnes truly brought honor to their family!

In the future, not only will the Lee Family have Kamden Lee, but they will also have Wyatt Barnes to flaunt.

Maya Lee looked at Wyatt, her eyes swirling with complex emotions.

The young girl standing next to her, however, seemed completely unsurprised.

In her eyes, her Young Master has always been the best, with none to match.

"Wyatt Barnes, be careful. With my full strength, both my power and speed will greatly increase!"

After warning Wyatt, Ellis Lynch launched his attack.

Untraceable Step in Snow!

Ellis Lynch’s speed increased by at least 30% compared to before.

Overlapping Shadows Technique!

A dozen shadowy palm imprints rained down, enveloping Wyatt Barnes.

When Ellis Lynch unleashed his full strength, the Untraceable Step in Snow’s speed overwhelmed Wyatt’s Spiritual Snake Body Method, the power of Overlapping Shadows Technique also triumphed over Wyatt’s Collapsing Fist, making it hard for Wyatt’s defensive martial technique, Grand Displacement, to resist.

At this moment, no matter how rich Wyatt’s combat experience is, no matter how magical the Grand Displacement, after a few moves, he still fell into a disadvantage.

To put it simply,

If you compare martial techniques to software,

The body’s strength would be the hardware.

No matter how excellent the software is, it would still be dragged down by poor hardware.

"Wyatt’s strength is far inferior. He is about to lose soon."

Seeing Wyatt Barnes on the defensive and steadily retreating, a smile spread across the faces of the juniors of the Lynch Family externship.
