A miserable scream resounded throughout the entire monastery. That heart-rending shriek was like needles stabbing into peoples ears.

Everyone saw that Long Chen had smashed the sledgehammer right between Gu Fengs legs. Long Chens immense power had directly caused his crotch to sink in.

Seeing this shocking scene with their eyes, hearing that heart-rending cry with their ears, all the men involuntarily trembled, pressing their legs together. They felt an icy chill in a certain part of their bodies.

Its definitely broken

Many of the men had the same thought. As men, they all felt sympathy. At the same time, they clamped their legs together, trying not to distress their own crotches.

AHHH! Gu Feng was clenching his crotch, rolling on the ground back and forth, his veins bulging. Even his eyes looked like they might pop out.

How dare you, Long Chen?! You did that on purpose! Zhou Qifeng finally couldnt hold back and cursed at Long Chen.

No no it wasnt at all on purpose. I was just too nervous. Long Chen spread his arms innocently.

However, he had forgotten that he was holding a sledgehammer. Spreading his arms, the sledgehammer dropped to the ground.

Who knew whether or not it was a coincidence, but the sledgehammer just happened to once more smash onto Gu Fengs crotch.

The muffled bang that came from that caused everyone to twitch. Gu Feng curled up like a shrimp, and then his eyes rolled into his head and he fainted.

In an instant, his mournful shriek ended. The world returned to silence. The monastery disciples were oddly looking at Gu Feng, not saying a single word.

Only Guo Ran had a worshipful expression, his eyes like two shining stars. If the circumstances werent inappropriate, he might have immediately knelt down and begged Long Chen to take him as a disciple. His conning arts had reached the realm where even ghosts and gods would be shocked. Perhaps only Long Chen had such abilities.

Aiya, so sorry! I just wanted to demonstrate my innocence! Long Chen, who seemed to have never expected the situation to reach this point, apologized extremely awkwardly.

Long Chen, today you intentionally used a sinister scheme to injure others! Today, Ill- Zhou Qifeng shouted, just about to punish Long Chen.

Wait a moment, dont mislabel others. I said I was nervous. It wasnt intentional. Long Chen waved his hand.

What nonsense! It was clearly intentional! raged Peng Xuequan.

Really? What part of it was intentional? Dont slander others. In the beginning, I was too nervous and didnt smash the hammer, all because I was afraid I would miss!

But this fellow encouraged me, practically forcing me, which is the only reason I finally smashed it down. Previously, he clearly said that if there were any problems, it would be his responsibility. Everyone here heard that. Are you deaf?

If you didnt hear it, then go ask your sect leader if he heard it. You can also ask each and every disciple and Elder if they heard it, said Long Chen disdainfully.

Zhou Qifeng and the others clenched their teeth furiously. This Long Chen was too wicked, to intentionally bait Gu Feng into saying such a thing. Now, he wouldnt have to bear any of the responsibility. Gu Feng had suffered for nothing.

I feel like the test should just end here today. Sect leader came from so far, he should rest for a few days. Lets scatter. Long Chen laughed at the gloomy-faced Zhou Qifeng.

That smash of the hammer had truly been addicting. No matter what realm you reached, as long as you were a man, that place was always a vital point. The place of the lifeline could not be isolated from pain. Even a Meridian Opening expert was in enough pain as to die.

Long Chens sneering made Zhou Qifeng and the others feel like they might explode from rage. But they were powerless to do anything to him.

If they ended things like this, then they wouldnt have established their prestige. Instead, they would have lost all their face.

No! This test is not a game. This is for us to get a clear understanding of the disciples power. Those who do well will get better resources, while the trash shouldnt waste any of our resources.

The earlier we set up our foundation, the more beneficial it will be in the long run. We wont end just because of a small mishap. Peng Xuequan saw Zhou Qifeng give him a special gaze, and he hurriedly opened his mouth.

The earlier we set up our foundation, the more beneficial it will be in the long run?

Long Chen really was impressed. They really were shameless enough. They could even utter such pompous reasoning for their schemes.

A touch of ridicule appeared in Long Chens eyes as he said, Then you want the test to continue right now?

Of course, we have to continue. Since you suspect somethings wrong with the stone slab, then Ill let you test it on me this time. Then, Peng Xuequan added, Last time, you might have managed to pull off a little trick, but let me see what you dare try this time. If you dare try it again, the sect leader will definitely cut off your head.

Peng Xuequan lay on the ground, placing the stone slab on his chest.

Go ahead. Go as hard as you like.

Fuck off. Can you not say something so disgusting? I dont have that kind of interest in men, cursed Long Chen.

Everyone looked oddly at Peng Xuequan, who was lying on the ground. That posture it truly could be misconstrued.

You! Shut up and smash it! Peng Xuequan turned purple and roared furiously.

Only then did Long Chen raise the sledgehammer. He took aim on the slab, testing it out several times with a nervous expression.

Im nervous again.

Peng Xuequan turned green, and he crossed his legs tightly, afraid Long Chen would also smash his crotch.

Although that wouldnt kill him, that kind of pain was something men could not endure. Looking at Long Chens wicked gaze, it seemed he was thinking of once more doing something sinister.

Long Chen, dont vainly think about using the same trick twice. If you intentionally miss again, Ill immediately have you killed! shouted Zhou Qifeng.

Only then did Peng Xuequan relax. He sneered, Brat, now you cant run. Once this is finished, youll have to be more well-behaved.

His voice was extremely quiet so only Long Chen could hear. It was an obvious threat.

Was this worth the trouble? Long Chen shook his head helplessly.

Shut up and swing the hammer! shouted Zhou Qifeng.

Long Chen smashed the hammer down. But all that happened was the stone slab shook ever so slightly. Everyone was puzzled.

Smash after smash went down, but his blows were so weak. All that happened was some loud banging. The stone slab wasnt damaged at all.

Long Chen, are you playing the drums?! Zhou Qifeng raged.

Long Chen was just lightly tapping the slab. If he continued like that, not even a year would be enough to break the slab. He was clearly stalling for time.

Isnt this because Im nervous? This way, if I miss, at least I wont injure anyone, said Long Chen.

You! What nonsense! This is a test, not a game! If you cant destroy the slab, I will punish you for neglecting your duty! roared Zhou Qifeng.

Im no longer the Enforcement Elder, so how could I neglect my duties?? said Long Chen disdainfully. Even when he tried to accuse him, it seemed he still didnt have a brain.

You! Even if you're not the Enforcement Elder, you are still a disciple. I use my status as sect leader to order you to smash apart that slab! Otherwise, I will punish you severely! quibbled Zhou Qifeng.

Although he was twisting the logic, it was at least slightly reasonable. If someone didnt listen to the sect leaders orders, there really was a need to punish them.

Alright then. Prepare yourself. Dont get killed as soon as I smash it down. Otherwise, your father would have worked so hard for nothing all those years, said Long Chen, hesitating.

Hurry up! roared Peng Xuequan. If Long Chen didnt hurry up, he was afraid he might die from rage.

Long Chen spat on his hands, rubbing them like a stonemason about to get to work.

Are you prepared? he asked again.

Im prepared! Peng Xuequan was practically roaring. He had an urge to throttle Long Chen. This posture was extremely embarrassing for him to stay in.

Alright then.

The instant he said that, the sledgehammer in his hand ruthlessly smashed down.

BANG!

The ground rocked intensely. But everyone was startled to see that the slab hadnt even cracked.

As for the one beneath the slab, his face went from red to white, and then white to purple, his eyes bulging.

Shockingly, the stone slab hadnt broken, but Peng Xuequan, a Meridian Opening expert, vomited a mouthful of blood.

Long Chen had condensed his power so that it wouldnt scatter, and when he had struck the stone slab, the force had gone straight through the stone slab to strike Peng Xuequan. As a result, the stone slab hadnt broken, but Peng Xuequan wildly vomited blood.

Originally, breaking stones over abdomens, using heads to break bricks, and similar tricks were just circus acts found amongst the secular worlds commoners. In truth, those performers werent powerful cultivators. They were just ordinary people.

However, ordinary people wouldnt be able to endure that kind of powerful force. According to reason, they should be injured. However, those performers always managed to break the stones without the slightest injury, causing people to click their tongues in wonder.

In truth, there was a certain trick to it. The trick didnt lay in the person lying on the ground nor did it lay in the stone. Instead, it was in the hand of the smasher.

As long as the person using the hammer controlled their strength properly, scattering the power when the hammer hit the slab, the slab would break apart, while the person at the bottom would receive extremely little force.

Those performers would often use children to lay under the stones in order to impassion the crowd. Then they might earn a bit more money. But the people smashing the hammer were always old masters who had trained in doing this for many years. Otherwise, there really was a danger of smashing someone to death.

As for Long Chen, he was doing the opposite. He sent the force directly through the slab so that the person below would endure it all.

Previously, that was also why Yue Zifeng had been injured. Long Chens cultivation base might not be high, but his control over his power had reached the point of perfection, and his control was at least a hundred times better than Peng Xuequan.

Peng Xuequan had used this trick to injure Yue Zifeng. Now, the wheel had turned. Long Chens control was even more exquisite, and he used even greater strength. Even a Meridian Opening expert was unable to endure it.

Everyone was still shocked by how Peng Xuequan had vomited blood when Long Chen ruthlessly swung the hammer a second time.
