Seeing the layout of the site and the stone standing in the middle of the site, Lin Ming could almost guess its purpose.
"Yes, these stones have different endurance."
"It's used to test the explosive power of the tribe."
Long Ba looked at Lin Ming and the young tribesmen around him, eager to let them compete.
"How about you go up and try with them?"
"Even though they are not as old as you, their punches and kicks are probably no less powerful than yours."
Long Ba spoke so confidently that it inspired Lin Ming's competitive spirit.
He still has a little confidence in himself.
So he smiled slightly.
"Then, why not give it a try?"
"Okay! I just like it when you are straightforward!"
Long Ba said, waving to a few young people not far away who were sulking at the stone, asking them to come to him.
"Come on, come on."
"The old man will introduce you to someone today so that you can go and compete."
Long Island has a very strong xenophobia towards outsiders, but Lin Ming was brought here by Long Ba, so the people present saw no rejection in his eyes, only curiosity.
"Elder, he doesn't seem to be from our clan!"
"Well, yes, he has a good relationship with His Majesty. He has come to our place to recuperate for a while. Don't take this opportunity to bully others. Treat me well, do you hear me?"
As soon as Long Ba said that Lin Ming was Bai Xue's friend, many young people's eyes lit up. They looked at Lin Ming with curiosity, admiration, and more of an extremely passionate desire.
The feeling of competing.
The last time he hurried to Dragon Island, Lin Ming discovered that the young people on the island had a sense of worship for Bai Xue that was almost like worshiping a god, which was no exaggeration compared to the fanatical believers of the Holy See.
"good!"
"Elder, since this little brother is your Majesty's good friend, then he must have some merits. I have to ask for advice!"
Long Ba also seems to be happy to see this kind of lively competition.
"Okay, later you can let go and play, and I will be your referee."
Cheers, not too big nor too small, resounded lively in the venue, and seemed to be spreading.
"Can you tell me why they are so fanatical about Bai Xue?"
While those people were cheering, Lin Ming tilted his head slightly and asked the doubts in his heart.
"Because in our place the strong are respected."
This answer not only surprised Lin Ming, but also made him feel less surprised. It was inexplicably in line with Long Dao's consistent temperament and style.
"Is Bai Xue stronger than you two?"
Long Ba glanced at Lin Ming, seeming to be a little impatient with him for asking this question.
"Do you have any misunderstandings about our Majesty?"
"I have told you a long time ago that His Majesty is the strongest bloodline returner in our Dragon Island for thousands of years. The strongest does not refer to people of the same age, but to the strongest among all people.
.”
When Long Ba talked about Bai Xue, he also looked proud and coquettish.
"If there hadn't been a traitor within our ranks and His Majesty was plotted against by those idiots, with His Majesty's strength, let alone those losers from the Vatican, even if the Vatican and the Emperor join forces and join forces, they might not be able to defeat His Majesty.
"
"As for the Great Elder and I, we do have some strength, but we are no match for His Majesty."
Lin Ming was completely shocked after hearing this answer. He only knew that Bai Xue was extraordinary before, but he never knew that Bai Xue was so strong.
"Your Majesty has single-handedly frightened those who were trying to make a move."
"So, there are almost no people in our tribe who don't admire His Majesty."
Long Ba said, patting Lin Ming's shoulder with sincerity.
"So as the only person that His Majesty has seen in person for so many years, don't be embarrassed."
Long Ba specially held her shoulders and pointed to the stone standing in the most remote area.
"Did you see that stone? It is the most durable stone on our island. Over the years, only His Majesty has left his mark on that stone."
Lin Ming's eyes also swept over. There was a huge stone standing on the empty platform. The stone was different from the stones elsewhere. It looked very smooth.
Its smooth surface is not as pitted as other stones, and there is only a deep palm print on it.
It is self-evident who left the mark.
When Lin Ming saw everything before him and heard Bai Xue's story, a burning emotion suddenly arose in his heart.
It would be great if he could also leave his mark on that stone.
…
"Which of you comes first?"
In the blink of an eye, those who wanted to challenge Lin Ming had already formed a long queue. Long Ba stood aside, with one hand behind his back and the other raised to mark the boundary between them.
"I have made the conditions for the competition very clear. No auxiliary force is allowed."
Lin Ming nodded to indicate that he understood.
He looked at Long Ba and the people around him and said humbly.
"Please."
The young man who walked by him was not shy and bowed his hands to him.
"Please enlighten me."
After saying that, he broke away from the team and stepped forward steadily. In front of him was a stone that was already covered with many marks.
The young man stopped three feet away from the stone.
Hold your breath and concentrate, press your center of gravity downward, and bend your knees slightly.
He concentrated all the strength in his body. He tapped the toes of his left foot slightly and rotated the toes of his right foot. Using all the strength of his body, he waved his arms and pushed towards the stone in front of him.
There was a bang and the stone shook slightly from the huge force.
Taking a closer look, I found that a new palm print was indeed left on the stone. The palm print penetrated three-thirds of the way into the stone, which was extraordinary and profound.
When the people around him saw him, they applauded and turned their attention to Lin Ming.
Lin Ming exhaled slightly and stepped forward with light steps, like a bird about to take flight.
As everyone watched his footsteps, all kinds of thoughts came to their minds.
Under normal circumstances, most people who rebuild their strength have steady and heavy steps, and they will never be like Lin Ming.
Long Ba looked at the eyes of his disciples and knew that they underestimated their enemy.
The competition between Lin Ming and his tribe was initiated by him.
It is not only a test for Lin Ming, but also a touchstone for his clan members.
Longdao has been in a position of peace and harmony for too long, and the younger generation of the clan has lost its keen sense of crisis.
This was probably the reason why we lost so miserably in the previous battle.
Lin Ming, who was sent to his door, was similar in age to the younger generation, and had some relationship with Bai Xue, so he could use this opportunity to hone the younger generation's character.
Lin Ming was not unaware of Long Ba's wishful thinking, but he was happy to see this mutual benefit.
At this moment, Lin Ming stood in front of the boulder, with his legs slightly apart and at shoulder level. His left hand moved his right hand across a soft wave. In an instant, the soft wave changed, wind, thunder and lightning flashed, and a palm was released.
