The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Austin was excited when he saw the giant and fierce crocodile jumping towards him. It was so fast that its four limbs were a few inches above the ground.

With a physical strength of three hundred and sixty thousand (360, 000) pounds packed in each punch, Austin was eager to fight with the giant crocodile. It was a good chance to test his powers against the enemy and monitor the effect it would have.

"Go to hell!" He shouted.

Austin's body was as still and firm as a mountain as he attacked the giant and fierce crocodile. He simply stretched out his right hand and released his internal strength, knocking his fist on the head of the beast with one punch.

"Thump!" The punch sounded like a sledgehammer breaking rocks.

The giant crocodile bled and blood soon covered its whole body. It flew up in the air and it was dead before it even hit the ground.

Austin broke all its bones and mashed its internal organs into dust and ashes because of the amount of the power contained in the attack. When the carcass fell to the ground, it was a pool of paste.

One punch turned the level eight diabolic beast into a huge paddle of cutlet! Never would it open its eyes. It was hard to find its eyes. Its whole carcass was a muddle of minced meat.

As soon as the carcass dropped on the ground, Austin jumped forward and picked the crocodile cutlet with a hand made of his vital energy He then began to refine the vital energy of the diabolic beast with the Beast Energy-extracting Skill. As he practiced the skill, srings of special refining power wrapped the cutlet and began the refining process.

Moments later, a lump of the vital energy and blood full of vitality appeared in his hand.

He then used his mind to manipulate the lump of vital energy. It ran along his palm, his arm and finally it was absorbed in his body.

The lump of the vital energy was not much. As it entered his limbs and his organs, every part of his body tried to absorb more of it as if it was a dry ground thirstily absorbing minimal rainfall and every part of his body screamed with the desire for the vital energy.

The blood and essence of the crocodile were much weaker than the gold blood he had absorbed in the Holy Tomb of the Veritable Demon Sect.

So it was not as painful for him as it was before, for him to absorb the vital energy of the giant monster. He knew that it was because his body was now stronger than before.

The pain was minimal. It felt like the itching sensation of when a line of ants crawl down his body or the pain of a needle pricking his skin.

Austin could feel his strength increasing pound by pound with every breath he took.

After several breaths, his strength stopped increasing.

He had now successfully increased his strength by 500 pounds.

Austin was ecstatic, for the first the had used the Beast Energy-extracting Skill, and the process was successful.

However, a 500 pounds increase in strength was insignificant for him. It wouldn't make much of a difference.

But it was still worth celebrating because this was the first tthat he had succeeded in using the Beast Energy-extracting Skill. It meant a lot to him.

After he absorbed all the vital energy, he turned and walked towards the exit of the big iron cage.

Outside the cage.

It shocked the cultivator of the Tiger Mercenary Team whose duty was to open and lock the cage to see the gentle man. It was hard for him to believe that such a young man could beat the fierce crocodile all by himself. His eyes were opened wide, and they looked as big as saucers.

"That... that..." He couldn't recover from the shock. In general, it was impossible for such a young man to beat the beast alone.

"Is he really a teenager, under 20 years? His powerful strength was equivalent to the power of the warriors and disciples of the powerful sects," the cultivator muttered under his breath.

He had witnessed Austin knock down the crocodile into a cutlet with a single punch. The level eight diabolic beast died before it waged a single attack on Austin.

What was more, the cutlet was also completely refined.

It amazed the guard that the young man had such an unexpectedly strong power.

"Ahem, did | pass the test?" Austin walked up to the shocked cultivator of the Tiger Mercenary Team and asked.

"You pass... You pass...Young man, your physical strength is too powerful!" The cultivator of the Tiger Mercenary Team stammered out a reply.

Although he was at the premium stage of the Sky Realm and he was confident that he could kill the giant crocodile. He would still have to wrestle it down and it would take stime. He had to admit that he couldn't kill it in a single move like Austin did.

He couldn't believe what he had seen. He could not understand how such fearful physical strength could exist in the body of such a young man.

Austin walked towards the gate of the big house after making sure that he had passed the exam.

Outside the big house.

Many cultivators who had also applied for the job were waiting to be assessed.

"Ha-ha, maybe that young man has been eaten by the diabolic beast inside in one bite," one cultivator said.

"I agree. He must be just a naughty boy who is scared to death when he sees the murderous diabolic beasts." Scultivators looked down upon Austin. They talked and laughed at his expense to kill time. The comments were mainly negative. Even those who said nothing were still doubtful. Their expression hinted that they didn't think Austin could pass the test.

Everyone was looking at the gate of the big house as Austin went in. No one believed that he would cout safe and sound. It was almost a consensus that he would die.

After all, two cultivators at the medium stage of the Sky Realm had earlier gone into the house before. Unfortunately, they did not pass the test. One cultivator died, and the other was seriously hurt. No one expected anything outstanding from the childish teenager who had rushed in. His destruction would be unimaginable.

The cultivators were still talking in groups when suddenly total silence shrouded the place.

They stared at the gate of the big house in shock. It seemed as if they had seen a ghost.

After all, they thought that Austin must have died in the house. But now the young man was walking out of the gate, in a gentle and relaxed pace.

‘What? That young man didn't die! How is he out safe and sound?!" All the cultivators waiting for the test wondered in shock.

They had looked at Austin with disdain before he went into the house. Austin had been a joke to them. But now they had complicated expressions on their faces and they were staring at him utterly surprised.

"Young man, you... Did you pass the test?" One man who was three feet taller than Austin and had a strong body asked in doubt.

"It seems | have passed," Austin replied with a smile.

"Wow!" All the other cultivators waiting for the test gasped in unison.

They knew exactly what "passing the test" meant. It was only after killing the level eight diabolic beast that one could pass the test.

'This young man had killed a level eight diabolic beast in such a short time?" Everyone was overwhelmed at this thought. They struggled to believe what they had heard.

"Those who have passed the test please go to the house at the end and wait together." One cultivator a member of the Tiger Mercenary Team who was responsible for guiding the winners cto Austin and told him where to go next while pointing at a big house at the end of the passage.

Austin nodded and walked away.

As he walked into the house he cacross a wide living room with high-end tables and chairs that looked like they belonged in the upmarket. On the tables, there were various dishes, wines and drinks. All the dishes looked delicious and smelt great.

In addition, there were many pretty young slim maids wearing sexy clothes and walking gracefully as they made tea and poured water for the guests. Their service was respectful.

In the living room, there were more than twenty cultivators. 'Obviously, they have passed the test, ' thought Austin.

As Austin walked closer, all the cultivators turned their gaze towards him. Their looks were aggressive and hostile. If it was possible, they would have torn him into tiny pieces.

Austin didn't mind their gaze. This kind of triviality didn't bother him. His mind was calm and quiet and therefore his face was expressionless. Based on his assessment the most powerful cultivator in the living room was only at the premium stage of the Sky Realm. He could easily defeat him.

He therefore ignored the cultivators after assessing their strength.
