Invincible Copy System
Chapter Summary
It is for this reason that Horse King keeps himself running non-stop every day. He had known this for a long time, but unfortunately, this training method had become unstoppable. Horse King knows that if he takes the initiative to attack for the first time, he is likely to expose his weaknesses, especially against a master like Liu Ning.
Horse King is actually quite stubborn. He has great confidence in his own abilities, so he always believes that hard work is never wrong. It is for this reason that Horse King keeps himself running non-stop every day. Although this method has brought him some progress and earned him the attention of the elders, it has also taken a toll on his health.
He had known this for a long time, but unfortunately, this training method had become unstoppable. If he stopped, his entire body would develop all sorts of problems, and his previous achievements would be taken away by others. Ma Wang simply didn't have the courage to stop.
Horse King trains for up to 20 hours a day. If you only train for a few days, there won't be any problems. But if you do this every day, it's not good for your body. Your body won't get any rest, so your muscles will always be tense. If this continues, it will definitely lead to serious problems. But Horse King can't stop. His potential is there, and he can only catch up with others through hard work.
For others, fighting in the wild is very stressful, but for the Horse King, it's the opposite. When the Horse King goes hunting in the wild, he feels unusually relaxed.
Because fighting only takes place during the day in the wild, and everyone must rest properly at night. Anyone who wants to fight at night is probably out of their mind. Nighttime in the wild is the domain of ferocious beasts, which is why the Horse King felt it was very easy to go out.
It was from that time onwards that the Ma family's higher-ups began to pay more attention to him. Ma Wang not only provided him with a lot of cultivation resources, but also gave him the green light in all aspects. When Ma Wang encountered certain bottlenecks, the higher-ups would find some very powerful teachers for him. These teachers would also give Ma Wang all kinds of advice, so this guy's progress was exceptionally fast. He cultivated from a collateral descendant to his current level, which can be described as a huge miracle.
However, Liu Ning scanned the guy with the system and found that all the cells in the guy's body were in a state of deficiency. This situation definitely couldn't last long. If the guy didn't get treatment, it wouldn't just be a matter of reduced strength. It was very likely that his entire life force would be affected.
Indeed, treating this condition is quite easy: simply stop your cultivation and allow yourself to maintain a deep sleep for at least six months. You cannot maintain this schedule, nor can you train your body. So it's quite easy. But Ma Wang will never allow such a thing to happen. He knows very well that if he stops training, his body will decline, and his combat power will also decrease.
Everything he had worked so hard for was gone, so this guy just temporarily found a hypnotist. Although the hypnotist gave the horse king some rest before the competition, it could only last for a while. If he wanted to cure it completely, that probably wouldn't work, since it was a psychological trauma that no medicine could heal.
To prepare for the selection competition, Ma Wang had no choice but to brace himself. Although he knew his body was failing, he maintained high-speed combat power on the field, making all his enemies fear him. In fact, this state was only effective against weaker opponents. If Ma Wang faced a strong opponent like Liu Ning, his strategy would probably be less effective.
During the system's observation, Liu Ning also noticed that one of Ma Wang's most formidable strengths was his stamina reserves. Liu Ning's stamina reserves far surpassed everyone else's. If Liu Ning's stamina reserves were 100, then Ma Wang's were 150, exceeding Liu Ning's by 1.5 times. This was unique in the system's records. The reason Ma Wang had such stamina reserves was entirely due to his 20 hours of daily cultivation. His body had adapted to this cultivation schedule, which is why his stamina reserves were better than Liu Ning's.
Liu Ning understood this, so he knew he absolutely couldn't drag out the fight. Liu Ning's stamina used to be sufficient, but now, seeing this number, he lost confidence. If he dragged it out with this guy, he would definitely be worn down by Ma Wang. He could maintain 20 hours of high-intensity training. If Liu Ning were to do that, it should be fine for a day or two, but if it exceeded half a month, Liu Ning absolutely wouldn't have the ability.
The two have been staring at each other for over two minutes, and neither has made a move yet. Both want the other to make the first move, but they are both highly skilled and will not reveal any weaknesses in this situation. Many people below have started to grumble and curse. They came here to watch an exciting match, not to watch the two of them standing there, so those people below are feeling rather uncomfortable.
Liu Ning didn't launch an attack because he had discovered something special. He already knew all of Ma Wang's skills, and these skills didn't need to be copied. How did Ma Wang become a top-tier master? He couldn't figure out how Ma Wang could become a top-tier master just by using these ordinary skills. Therefore, Liu Ning didn't dare to attack rashly and waited for Ma Wang to take the initiative to attack to see what the final result would be.
The same goes for Horse King. Horse King knows that if he takes the initiative to attack for the first time, he is likely to expose his weaknesses, especially against a master like Liu Ning. Therefore, Horse King is more composed. No matter how long you want to wait, we will accompany you to the end. We will never change our original intention because of the shouts of the people around us. If a master does not even have this much patience, then he should not participate in the selection competition.
This is a competition, and getting through the knockout stage is the most important thing. If you care about your reputation, you will be dragged down by it. So both of them are very clear about this. No matter what the people below shout, they are as firm as Mount Tai and honestly follow their own ideas.
Now it all comes down to who will lose their composure more. Liu Ning's face still shows the same expression, but Ma Wang is different. The competition has just begun, and Ma Wang has many more matches to go. He knows his physical condition, so he'll definitely be the first to give in...
