Chapter 43: Chapter 43: The More You Fight, The More Energy You Have

"Alright, be careful," the young man nodded and said.

The next moment, he rushed towards Lin Yun, his hand shimmering, using a stance that was both tangible and illusory.

Seeing this move, Lin Yun smiled slightly and stepped back.

Whether he engaged or dodged, he would enable the young man to launch an endless flurry of attacks. Only by retreating could he render the opponent's moves ineffectual and leave him with nowhere to exert his strength.

Seeing Lin Yun take a step back, the young man's expression changed subtly.

The three spectators on the side nodded in agreement.

As the saying goes, the expertise of a master is immediately apparent. Just by observing Lin Yun's retreat, they knew that this young man was no mere novice. At the very least, his combat experience wasn't inferior. Unlike some, who may have impressive physiques and impressive abs that inspire self-confidence, but fight without technique and are easily overpowered by true experts.

Whoosh—

Just as the young man was unable to exert his strength, Lin Yun stomped his foot and charged forward.

This retreat and charge, whether in terms of timing, angle, or speed, were all handled perfectly, immediately shifting Lin Yun from a defensive position to an offensive one.

The young man's face opposite Lin Yun went pale.

The very next moment, he hastily put up his guard to counter Lin Yun's assault.

"Bang—"

With a muffled noise, Lin Yun and the young man began to fight.

"Mid Mingjin Stage!"

The young man took three steps back, sucked in a breath of cold air, and was shocked.

Lin Yun's strength was very strong. From Lin Yun's powerful force, he judged that Lin Yun's strength should have reached the Mid Mingjin Stage.

The Mid Mingjin Stage, even in their Gold Sword Security Company, was a formidable existence, not numerous. Each was a pillar of the company. Lin Yun looked younger than him and had reached the Mid Mingjin Stage, which surprised him greatly.

Normally, the recruits applying for security and bodyguard positions seldom possess such skill.

Not to mention, someone so young.

"Forced Wang Zhen to retreat three steps. This young man's strength is probably higher than Wang Zhen..."

"Wang Zhen is only at the Early Mingjin Stage. Has this young man reached the Mid Mingjin Stage?"

"He must be at the Mid Mingjin Stage. This young man isn't that old but has already reached the Mid Mingjin Stage. His talent is not bad. It's just unknown why someone with his skill applies for a position as security or bodyguard. Could it be on behalf of someone else or perhaps… is he here to challenge us? "

The three men on the side of the stage looked serious.

Despite two of them also being at the Mid Mingjin Stage, they couldn't dismiss the rarity of replaceing those at the Mid Mingjin Stage. Whenever their company had one more Mid Mingjin Stage expert, it would attract many colleagues' attentions, making them look at the expert differently. Plus, this young man was younger than them and clearly experienced in combat.

"Bang—"

Three waves of sound resonated! During their conversation, Lin Yun and Wang Zhen had already engaged in combat several times on the stage, with Wang Zhen being pushed back steadily. However, each time Wang Zhen seemed about to fall, Lin Yun would pull back his strikes since his goal was not to take him down but to test his skills.

Every time he was about to be knocked down by Lin Yun, Lin Yun would withdraw, and Wang Zhen's face turned red with embarrassment.

But he had no choice but to continue fighting Lin Yun.

By this time, he knew that the other's strength far surpassed his own.

He perked up and hoped to put up a decent fight.

"This young man is really amazing..."

"Wang Zhen is continuously at a disadvantage..."

"And Wang Zhen is at a B-level security guard's level..."

Some wanted to test the strength of their B-level security guards and A-level bodyguards, which was why many were quietly watching the arena from near and far. At this moment, many were surprised to see this.

"I didn't expect this young man to be so strong..." The young woman who had greeted Lin Yun at the stage was also surprised, covering her mouth.

To be honest, when she first arranged people for Lin Yun, she wanted to see how he would react when he discovered the power of their B-level security and A-level bodyguards at Gold Sword Security Company. It wasn't that she wanted to make fun of him; it was merely anticipation.

That's because Lin Yun was confident when he said he would personally test their company's security and bodyguard strength.

At this moment, she was extremely embarrassed.

She was ashamed of her thoughts, and also for their B-level security guards, who had been dominated by the opponent.

In a blink of an eye, Lin Yun and Wang Zhen crossed paths two or three dozen times more.

"Alright." Suddenly, Lin Yun jumped back, disengaging from the battle. Smiling, he continued, "Your strength is pretty good. Better than what your company claimed, not worse."

"Your strength is impressive, I'm nowhere near." Wang Zhen waved his hand, his face flushed.

"You're elder than me, so I'll call you Big Brother Wang. Would you like to be employed by me?" Lin Yun smiled slightly.

"Just call me Wang Zhen," Wang Zhen waved his hand, practitioners of martial arts always respected the strong. Lin Yun's strength far exceeded his, and he was only a couple of years younger than him, it was not appropriate to be called 'big brother' by Lin Yun, let alone if Lin Yun were to employ him, he might become his boss. No boss called his security guard 'big brother.'

After a pause, he stated honestly, "As for the recruitment issue, as long as you discuss it with the company, I have no objections."

Lin Yun turned to the receptionist who welcomed him.

"Sir, there is no problem, you can complete the procedures at any time." The receptionist smiled, saying.

"Good, then have some more B-level security guards and A-level bodyguards come over for me, I'm hiring quite a few." Lin Yun nodded, said.

Since this B-level security guard was capable, he felt more at ease about the strength of others.

Then, he turned his gaze to another B-level security guard and two A-level bodyguards.

"Next, it's my turn!" He saw the B-level security guard smiling, saying.

Now, among the three, he was the weakest, if he didn't go, who would?

"Alright." Lin Yun nodded slightly.

Next, the two approached the ring.

It proved that the strength grades designated by Gold Sword Security Company were pretty accurate, this B-level security guard's strength was not too far from Wang Zhen's.

Lin Yun crossed hands with him for about two or three dozen moves, then stopped.

And made a recruitment invitation to him.

Of course, there was no problem.

Next, it was Lin Yun's turn to face the other two A-level bodyguards.

At this point, Lin Yun had discovered that the Hundred-day Foundation Pill he took digested more quickly when he fought, making his physical strength almost not depleted. He had a vague feeling that when his strength fully recovered, his power would increase somewhat.

This discovery made him very happy.

He thought, perhaps, fighting more could save him some time to use more Foundation Pills, allowing him to reach the Late Mingjin Stage earlier.

Although the time saved might not seem significant, but over time, the time he saved would amount to a lot.

Not just the Hundred-day Foundation Pill, he found out that as he circulated and absorbed spiritual energy, his mental strength was also very abundant.

Fighting usually drained physical and mental strength the most, so many people on the ring were exhausted after a while and had to rest.

However, Lin Yun felt even more energized the more he fought.

The two A-level bodyguards wanted to let Lin Yun rest, but Lin Yun did not.

Combining Martial Arts Pill and the method of absorbing spiritual energy was indeed a good training scheme.

Otherwise, if his mental state were not good, he would not want to fight after a couple of rounds, and even if he did, the effect might not be great. According to the two training methods, there was a kind of mutual response between mental strength and physical strength, and he was not very clear about what this mutual response was.

At the moment, he understood it more and more profoundly.
