Chapter 516: The Combined Finger Technique

A silent, swift gust of wind rushed toward Happy’s face in an instant.
Happy quickly pressed her two fingers together as the wind struck, and in that split second, she dodged to the side just in time…
Bang! Bang!!
Explosive noises rang out continuously from the wall twenty meters behind Happy! Turning around, she saw that the wall, as if hit by bullets, had two holes several inches deep.
The players watching around were all stunned. The few who had been standing in front of the wall turned pale. If it weren’t for the two elders arriving in time and using their palm winds to push them away and shield them from the wind, it wouldn’t have been the wall that was damaged—it would have been their bodies.
When the crowd looked at Xiao Yu Luo again, their expressions turned extremely strange and fearful.
Who would have thought that Xiao Yu Luo, who usually took care of rabbits in the backyard, was actually a skilled expert hiding her talents!
Happy’s expression also changed. She took a deep breath and glanced at Miss Murong behind the smug Xiao Yu Luo…
The Combined Finger Technique!
Who would have thought this girl had the fortune to master this ancestral secret technique of the Murong family?
The Combined Finger Technique was even more profound than the Finger Flash Technique—capable of striking targets from afar silently, with astonishing speed. It could injure from a distance or even kill at close range. Its lethality made it comparable to the Duan family’s Six Pulse Divine Swords among finger techniques. The Murong family had once established their dominance through the profundity of this technique!
It was no exaggeration to say that the Combined Finger Technique was on par with the Star Shift Technique among the Murong family’s ancestral secrets.
How on earth did this girl acquire it?
Happy was speechless. She had initially thought the girl was just a silly child who couldn’t even take care of rabbits. Who would have imagined that beneath her petite frame lay monstrous strength?
“Hey! Take another strike from me.”
Seeing that her technique had captured everyone’s attention, Xiao Yu Luo became excited. She brought her two fingers together and boldly thrust them into the air again. Channeling her internal energy, she quickly created a faint ripple in the air, which spread into an incredibly profound wave before disappearing.
In the blink of an eye—
From the strike, the ripple, to its disappearance, the whole process took just a moment…
But to Happy, it felt like an entire century had passed. She captured everything clearly in her mind. This time, she merely tilted her body slightly, and her Golden Bell Shield appeared.
“Dang!”
The Golden Bell Shield was struck on the side by a massive force. Suddenly, a bright light flashed, and intense ripples spread rapidly from the shield, almost causing it to collapse.

To outsiders, it seemed that Kai Xin failed to dodge Xiao Yu Luo’s attacks in time, and her protective barrier appeared to be on the verge of collapsing.
“That little girl is really strong—Kai Xin’s protective barrier can barely withstand even a few strikes.”
The onlookers paled.
Only Xiao Yu Luo herself understood that the previous strike should have been easier to dodge than the ones before. Kai Xin wanted to test the lethality of her finger techniques, so she let her Golden Bell Shield take the hit.
Indeed, the Buddhist Golden Bell Shield was indestructible. With her current strength in the “Combined Finger Technique,” it would take at least three strikes to completely destroy it.
“Three strikes… If I use my ultimate technique, it won’t be hard to handle five strikes.”
Realizing the situation with the Golden Bell Shield, Kai Xin calmed down and thought to herself: Xiao Yu Luo must have only been practicing the “Combined Finger Technique” for a short time. Its power was clearly inferior to Mo Mo’s “Finger Flash Technique,” but it had an advantage in speed and surprise. Given time, she would surely stand out.
This time, going to the Heroes’ Villa… Xiao Yu Luo could be counted among them.
As she pondered, Xiao Yu Luo, unwilling to give up, attacked again, firing several fingers in a row. Failing to succeed, she moved closer, hoping to use her close-range “Combined Finger Technique” to break through Kai Xin’s protection…
But that was naturally impossible.
After closing in, without giving Xiao Yu Luo a chance to strike, Kai Xin used a “Dragon Seizing Hand” to easily capture her and sent her flying dozens of meters with a single palm strike.
“I surrender,” said Xiao Yu Luo, her face twisted in pain.
Firing her fingers repeatedly had drained much of her internal energy. After being sent flying, she readily quit the fight, leaving many Murong clan members in awe and curiosity.
Many people gathered around to ask about her finger techniques. Xiao Yu Luo explained that she had only learned them from Miss Murong a month ago and was still not advanced enough, not even at the eighth level.
“I don’t know what the requirements are for practicing the ‘Combined Finger Technique,’ but it probably isn’t as demanding as ‘Star Shift’…” Kai Xin watched Xiao Yu Luo in the crowd and thought to herself: As expected, unexpected things always happen in the martial world.
In the subsequent battles, two more brave Murong clan members tried to attack, but sadly, after a few exchanges, Kai Xin lost interest in guiding them and sent them flying with a single move.
After several people being defeated in one strike, the Murong clan members who had hoped to fight Kai Xin backed down and immediately quit the arena.
Kai Xin was glad for the peace and turned to watch the battle on He Shi Yi’s side!
After entering the arena, He Shi Yi also took control of one of the fighting platforms and refused to leave. His movements were swift as the wind, and his arrows were fast as lightning.

He Shiyi’s archery skills were no longer the “Three Arrows Combined” technique he used during escort missions; it seemed he had mastered some highly sophisticated rapid-shooting technique. His breathing control was exceptional—through each inhale and exhale, he precisely adjusted his movement rhythm and arrow release frequency, taking three steps at a time and shooting an arrow with each step!
He Shiyi’s arrows came in a variety of forms: sometimes two arrows combined to flank his opponents, leaving them in a difficult position; sometimes he shot multiple arrows from a high vantage point; other times he delivered a single arrow that pierced through the enemy’s heart, or used a series of consecutive arrows in quick succession. Aside from using a special type of hidden arrow against “Whirlwind Li,” which left him covered in wounds and forced him to withdraw, he effortlessly dominated his enemies in all other encounters.
Xiao Yuluo did not face He Shiyi but appeared on another arena. Holding a sword in his left hand and raising two fingers in his right, just like a classic movie pose, he managed to knock out many of his senior brothers and sisters from over ten meters away without taking a single step. His opponents never had a chance to get close before being decisively knocked down, and one by one, they were declared defeated by the elders and forced to leave the arena.
Gradually…
In the training hall, fewer and fewer Murong disciples remained eligible to continue challenging! When the number dropped below a hundred, the most intense battles began…
As expected, Kai Xin continued to be ignored, with no one paying attention to him. He Shiyi and Xiao Yuluo also received no attention!
Fierce battles took place on the other arenas, as everyone fought desperately to secure the remaining seven spots. Kai Xin noticed that among the seven winners left, two had considerable strength—one practiced fast swordsmanship, possessing excellent life-and-death realm sword techniques and equipment, known as Thunderous and Sharp; the other used a pair of twin knives, moving freely in battle, a pure master of combat tactics—retreating when the enemy was strong and attacking when they were weak, launching devastating attacks at the slightest opportunity. His ferocity was astonishing, even impressing Kai Xin.
What pleased Kai Xin even more was that both of them were members of the Murong family…
