The two young men on the stage quickly determined the winner. When they both stepped down from the arena, many people around turned their gaze to Bexia and Luo Zhen, who had just fought, with an expectant look as if they were watching a show.

"Please!" Luo Zhen was not to be outdone. He leaped onto the arena and took out his weapon from the spatial ring: a dark golden hammer!

"Christine, stay here for a while. I'll be back soon!" Bexia put down Christine and gently wiped the candy stains off her mouth.

"Don't you need me, Master?" Christine asked eagerly.

"What would I need you for? Just stay here and watch!" Bexia patted Christine's head. How could she use her in her current state? It wouldn't be right.

Speaking of which, since Anzu's forging workshop is well-known, Bexia should find time to forge a suitable weapon for herself. After all, things bought from the market can never be completely satisfying. The best and most suitable equipment is definitely custom-made. It may not achieve a hundred percent perfect fit, but it is far superior to randomly purchased equipment on the market.

Whether a piece of equipment is suitable for a person has a great impact on their strength. Otherwise, those powerful blacksmiths wouldn't be so popular.

"Go for it, Master!" Christine shouted excitedly from the audience.

"I am Luo Zhen, also known as 'Shockwave.' I am a disciple of 'Master Hidden Dragon' Ju Hua. Please enlighten me!" Luo Zhen bowed to Bexia, following the customs of Anzu by stating his name, title, and the master he studied under.

"I am Bexia, and I don't have a title. My teacher is 'Burst King' Bor. Please guide me!" Bexia also imitated the formalities, as she had come to Anzu and wanted to blend in.

"Burst King?!" Luo Zhen's face showed surprise as he absentmindedly said, "Are you saying you are a disciple of Asman Royal Magic Academy's Dean?"

"Yes!" Bexia didn't hesitate. After all, her identity was not a secret. Many people knew about Asman, but Bor had only recently taken on disciples, so the news hadn't spread far.

"So, you are Burst King's disciple. No wonder you dare to speak so boldly. Maybe you do have some skills!"

"What do you mean by 'maybe'? I think this guy really has some abilities. After all, he is Burst King's disciple. How could a champion not see something in him?"

"You're right. I thought it would be one-sided, but it seems like we're in for a good show."

"I didn't expect you to be Burst King's disciple. I was disrespectful earlier!" Anzu places great importance on one's background, not in terms of birthplace, but in terms of where they work and who they study under. The attitude towards those with and without backgrounds is different. That's why Luo Zhen said what he did.

"I didn't expect you to be a disciple of Master Ju Hua. I was disrespectful!" Bexia also bowed and glanced meaningfully at the old man accompanying Luo Zhen. It was clear that the seemingly ordinary old man was Master Ju Hua.

Master Ju Hua's name resounded throughout the continent decades ago. At the age of forty-three, he forged champion-level equipment, making him the youngest forging master on the continent in thousands of years. Countless strong warriors came to him to have their equipment forged. With his identity as Master Ju Hua, even the emperor of the empire would treat him with respect. His status far surpassed that of an ordinary champion.

"Then, let's begin!" Luo Zhen assumed a stance. While their identities were one aspect, they wouldn't skimp on the promised exchange. They had to fight, and Luo Zhen also wanted to see the skills of Bexia, Burst King's disciple.

"Let's go!" Bexia drew her weapon and pointed it diagonally at Luo Zhen.

"Here I come!" With a loud shout, Luo Zhen stomped his sturdy leg on the ground and shot towards Bexia like a cannonball. The dark golden hammer in his hand came crashing towards her.

Hammers are rarely used because they are purely destructive weapons that require a lot of strength and are much heavier than ordinary weapons. They also lack flexibility, which is the main reason why most people do not choose them.

Feeling the pressure of the wind coming towards him, Bexia's face remained unchanged. He had faced the pressure from higher-level professionals before, even stronger ones. Although he could ignore the pressure, he still had to seriously face the strength of those in higher positions, especially in this martial Anzu. Just with one move, Bexia could feel the difference compared to other places.

"Ha!" Bexia used his battle blade to stop the heavy hammer that was falling on him. To be honest, in terms of strength, he was completely unmatched. With his body rebuilt under the divine punishment, his physical strength was exceptionally strong.

However, Bexia was still not sure how strong his body was at full power. He knew his strength was terrifying, and even a single strike could cause great destruction. So just now, he only used twenty percent of his strength. But even with just this twenty percent, he was able to firmly block the heavy hammer of Luo Zhen, and no matter how hard Luo Zhen tried, he couldn't make any progress.

"How can his strength be so great!" Luo Zhen felt incredulous. He knew that he had been forging and preparing for years, and the heavy hammer in his hand weighed 1,200 kilograms. Even if it was made of steel, he could smash it with one strike. Although it was just a probing attack, anyone with discerning eyes could see who was stronger in terms of strength!

"I guess this kid has innate divine power!" Luo Zhen found a reason for himself in his heart. After all, only innate divine power could explain why Bexia had such immense strength at such a young age.

But Luo Zhen didn't show anything. He knew it was not good, so he immediately retreated quickly to create distance. He was not good at using heavy hammers. After all, his nickname was "Shockwave." He hadn't even used his true skills yet. Who knows who will win in the end?

Luo Zhen put away his disdain for Bexia. He took a deep breath, and the heavy hammer in his hand suddenly fell to the ground. Bexia was puzzled by this, but in the next moment, his face changed, becoming extremely surprised. A force entered his body from the ground, causing internal damage. However, under his strong physique, this powerful shockwave did not harm him at all. It was as if he had been lightly bumped by someone, and he didn't feel much at all.

"How are you okay?!" Luo Zhen saw Bexia standing there completely unharmed, with his mouth wide open, in an unimaginable state. After all, this move was what made him almost unbeatable in this higher position!

How could it suddenly fail on Bexia, and even give him a feeling of hitting a wall like he did with his teacher, completely ineffective.
