The Strongman exerted all his strength but was unable to break free from Chen Haoxuan's grip. He was astonished; in the Dragon Group, only Zhang Tiezhu could withstand his full strength, and he never expected the seemingly gentle Chen Haoxuan to resist him so effectively, even gaining the upper hand.
The Strongman's confidence took a severe hit. Ignoring everything else, he let out a roar and summoned all his power, his body cracking and popping with the sound of sheer force.
However, he still couldn't escape Chen Haoxuan's hold, and at that moment, he admitted that Chen Haoxuan was stronger than him.
Shen Ruyan and the others watched in disbelief. They knew that just a year ago, Chen Haoxuan would be gasping for breath after running, highlighting how poor his physical condition had been. But now, his strength surpassed that of the Strongman, demonstrating just how terrifying Chen Haoxuan's current power was.
"Is this all you've got? Come on, I know you're holding back," Chen Haoxuan said with a smile, speaking so calmly as if he didn't regard the Strongman as a threat at all.
The Strongman roared again, his body crackling with energy as veins bulged like worms beneath his skin. Yet he still couldn't break free from Chen Haoxuan's grasp.
Chen Haoxuan voluntarily released the Strongman and stepped back. "I’m stronger than you; now let's see whose skills are better!"
Although Chen Haoxuan wasn't an enemy, defeating someone who had always considered himself the strongest in the world would surely infuriate the Strongman. He charged at Chen Haoxuan with bare fists, moving them rapidly.
Chen Haoxuan stood firm in one spot, continuously deflecting the Strongman's punches. The Strongman was fast, but Chen Haoxuan was faster. Gradually, the tables turned as Chen Haoxuan began to attack while the Strongman defended.
Finding an opportunity, the Strongman took a step back and stared at Chen Haoxuan in shock. He thought to himself, "I never expected that the Chen Haoxuan who had been hiding in a cave has become so powerful. How did he manage this?"
"Truly worthy of being Boss; just one word: strong," Jiang Dong exclaimed excitedly.
"Boss is invincible! Boss is invincible!" Chen Haoxuan's subordinates cheered loudly.
The Strongman stepped back again, but Chen Haoxuan remained where he was. With a smile, he said to the Strongman, "I’ll stay right here in this circle. If you can force me out of it, then you win." As he spoke, he extended his right foot and drew a circle on the ground.
"You... you are too arrogant," the Strongman growled through gritted teeth. Chen Haoxuan's actions were advantageous for him but also indicated that he didn't take him seriously at all, which only fueled his anger.
"As I said earlier, no one can match my strength or my skills. If you don't believe it, can you blame me?" Chen Haoxuan replied with a smile.
In the crowd, Shen Ruyan asked Chen Haoxuan in a delicate voice, "Chen Haoxuan, haven't you been studying for the past six months? How did you suddenly become so powerful?"
"I have been researching various things, but whenever I have time, I train my body alone in the lab. My training methods are several times more intense than yours, so it's normal for me to be stronger than you," Chen Haoxuan explained.
"Then... don't you sleep?" Shen Ruyan asked again.
"Of course I do! Every time I push my body to the point of exhaustion, I lie down in Nutrient Water to sleep," Chen Haoxuan replied.
"You... you're a madman." As Shen Ruyan said this, her eyes turned red. She admired Chen Haoxuan but also felt frustrated that he didn't treat himself like a person. He spent every day researching and training hard; she thought his idea of sleeping was more like recovering from injuries.
"Boss, even if your body is made of iron, you can't push yourself like this! It's fine now, but if you keep going like this, who knows... Boss, we're begging you, please take a good rest!" Lin Hao said seriously to Chen Haoxuan.
"Boss, you need to take care of your health..." Jiang Dong and the others urged Chen Haoxuan one after another.
Seeing how concerned Jiang Dong and the others were for him, Chen Haoxuan felt touched. He smiled at them and said, "I know my body well; there's no need to worry about me."
"Chen Haoxuan, pay attention; I'm about to use my ultimate move," Strongman shouted loudly at Chen Haoxuan. He didn't want to sneak attack while Chen Haoxuan was chatting with Jiang Dong; he just wanted to win against him openly.
Chen Haoxuan beckoned Strongman with a finger and smiled, "Come on!"
Strongman charged quickly toward Chen Haoxuan. As he got close, he aimed to shoulder-bump Chen Haoxuan, intending to knock him out of the circle.
Just as Strongman was about to collide with Chen Haoxuan, Chen Haoxuan executed a technique that used minimal force to redirect maximum energy. He quickly grabbed Strongman's body and lifted him up, redirecting his momentum upward so that he couldn't knock him out of the circle.
With that technique, Chen Haoxuan sent Strongman flying over his head and crashing ten meters away.
Unwilling to admit defeat, Strongman quickly got back up and charged at Chen Haoxuan again. He used all his skills, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't force Chen Haoxuan out of the circle.
The body of Strongman is a hundred times stronger than an ordinary person. If Chen Haoxuan does not use his full strength, Strongman could fight him for days and nights. Strongman has that kind of time, but Chen Haoxuan does not. Suddenly, Chen Haoxuan pulls Strongman into the circle, grabs him by the neck from behind, and with one hand pushing against Strongman's waist, he shouts loudly and lifts Strongman up.
With his right hand gripping Strongman's neck and his left hand pushing against Strongman's waist, Strongman cannot break free. The moment he moves, Chen Haoxuan's right hand will exert force, making it hard for him to breathe.
After holding him for a while, Chen Haoxuan throws Strongman's body fifty meters away. Strongman weighs over two hundred pounds, demonstrating how terrifying Chen Haoxuan's strength is.
Strongman is not an ordinary person, so Chen Haoxuan does not need to worry about him getting hurt from the fall.
Chen Haoxuan turns to Jiang Dong and the others and says, "During this time, you all thought your strength was impressive. Now tell me, can you defeat Strongman?"
Jiang Dong and the others shake their heads in shame.
Chen Haoxuan continues, "So how do you feel about my strength?"
"Boss's strength is definitely formidable!" they reply.
"I'll be honest with you; my current strength allows me to treat you like ants. I can crush as many as I want. If you don’t want to be ants, then train hard and don’t think that just because you’ve learned a little bit, you’re invincible," Chen Haoxuan shouts loudly.
