Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint

Chapter 72: Chapter 3 Seventh Grade Peak, the Pillar of the Cao Family!

At the entrance of the Martial Arts Hall.

Seeing Wang Jin’s arrival, Cao Bin was not surprised at all.

It would have been strange if Wang Jin had not shown himself after he had set foot into his territory.

This scene had been anticipated by him.

Afterward, he respectfully addressed Wang Jin, “Mr. Wang, Jiang Ning’s elder brother is a major fugitive accused by the court, secretly in communication with the God Worship Sect. It led to the failed encirclement against the God Worship Sect half a month ago, with great loss of soldiers and generals. This person is related by blood to Jiang Li, and I must arrest him!”

“Please grant me this convenience, Mr. Wang!”

As he spoke his final words, Cao Bin slightly bowed, showing his respect for Wang Jin.

“Scram!!!” Wang Jin bellowed.

Suddenly, Cao Bin’s face turned shades of green and white, becoming extremely ugly.

He had never expected that his lowered stance and submissive tone would be met with such a disdainful attitude from Wang Jin.

This made Cao Bin, who was usually haughty, feel his cheeks burn with embarrassment, especially with so many spectators inside and outside the hall, which made him even angrier.

…

At this moment,

Outside the Martial Arts Hall, a group of people gathered nearby, sporting expressions of watching a drama unfold.

“Wow, I didn’t expect Cao Bin, an arrest officer from the Cao family, to be scolded like that by Master Wang.”

“Master Wang is quite domineering, shielding his own like that. I almost want my unworthy child to join the Canglang Martial Arts Hall.”

“I’m thinking the same; for such protection, the hundred tael entry fee is worth it!”

“Yes! However, Wang Jin is just a mere Martial Arts Hall master. How does he dare to speak like that to Master Cao, who is an official government functionary, and furthermore, Cao Bin is the eldest legitimate son of the Cao family!”

“What’s there to fear for Wang Jin? I heard his martial arts skills are extraordinary, a Seventh Grade expert.”

“Seventh Grade, that high?”

“Absolutely, in his youth, Wang Jin was renowned in several surrounding counties as the ‘Five Animals Demonic Expert’, mastering Five Animals Fist to Perfection, unbeatable by ordinary people. His fame was established in a battle of Eighth Grade Great Success, where he fought one against three Eighth Grade warriors—all slain!”

“That’s incredible! I had no idea! If I’d known earlier, I’d have sent my son to join the Canglang Martial Arts Hall!”

“Plus, Wang Jin’s confidence isn’t just in his skills!”

“Oh, do share more insider info!”

“I’ve heard that the army commander outside the city, Master Wang, is Wang Jin’s younger brother, his own blood brother!”

“Hisss!!! No wonder then, no wonder Wang Jin dares to disrespect Master Cao like that.”

…

Hearing the discussions behind him, Cao Bin felt extremely embarrassed.

The next moment,

His face darkened abruptly: “Wang Jin! I respected you as an elder, gave you face, yet you harbor a court criminal. Are you plotting rebellion?”

Upon hearing this, Wang Jin’s eyes flashed angrily.

Boom—

The floor beneath him exploded suddenly, and he swiftly moved like a shadow, causing a gust of wind.

Seeing this, Jiang Ning’s eyes sharpened in awe.

Such speed… so fast!!!

From Wang Jin to the Martial Arts Hall entrance was about a distance of ten zhang.

But in a burst from Wang Jin, in roughly the span of one third of a breath, about one second, he crossed that ten zhang.

Just from this initial estimate in his mind, Jiang Ning recognized Wang Jin’s frightening speed.

He reached over thirty meters per second.

Put another way, that’s around one hundred twenty kilometers an hour.

What kind of concept is that?

That’s equivalent to the speed of a car traveling on a highway in his previous life.

Such velocity, merely from impact, would be a terrifying force.

Not to mention the combination of skillful power deployment.

And this was just his starting burst speed; peak speed could only be imagined!

In comparison, at this moment, Jiang Ning had a new understanding of Wang Jin’s strength.

Considering this terrifying explosive power, one could only imagine how robust his muscles and flesh were.

In combat, strong warriors are constantly changing direction; his body could endure such explosive forces without harm.

In Jiang Ning’s eyes, this was not something an ordinary human body could achieve.

This body, perhaps in his former world, might even withstand light firearms with sheer physical resistance.

And, from what he knew, Wang Jin was only ranked Seventh Grade in Martial Arts and was old and frail at that.

What about those above Seventh Grade—the Sixth Grade, the Fifth Grade, the Grandmasters? @@novelbin@@

And that Martial Saint, capable of conquering nations?

At this moment, numerous thoughts swarmed Jiang Ning’s mind.

Meanwhile,

Wang Jin seemed to transform into an enraged warrior; his eyes as large as brass bells, and his movements resembled a tiger descending a mountain, his presence terrifying.

Cao Bin was merely startled by his aura, and in that brief moment of stun, Wang Jin had already halved the distance.

By the time Cao Bin retreated two steps, Wang Jin was already before him.

Next,

In Cao Bin’s shocked gaze, he barely managed to raise his hands to defend, but Wang Jin’s feet were fast, his hands even faster.

As his hands just reached chest height, Wang Jin’s right hand, transformed into an eagle’s claw, had already locked onto his neck, fingers hooked tightly around his throat, lifting him directly.

Feeling the strength contained in those five fingers, Cao Bin had no doubts that Wang Jin could crush his throat instantly, killing him on the spot.

With his life in another’s hands, fear inevitably showed in his eyes.

He dared not make any further moves.

At the same time,

Clang—

Clang—

Clang—

The constables couldn’t help but draw their swords from their sheaths, vehemently watching Wang Jin.

At this time, Wang Jin’s gaze swept over the surrounding crowd, like the king of beasts surveying the forest.
