Then, Genos's figure vanished instantly, leaving a deep trench in the ground, created by Genos's advance.
The dazed Saitama vanished at lightning speed the instant Genos attacked, but Genos was still able to find him.
Genos then launched a frenzied attack, but no matter how fierce Genos's attacks were, Saitama perfectly dodged them.
Genos, flying in the air, exclaimed in disbelief, "Disappeared? Was what I attacked from the beginning just an afterimage?"
[Target search in progress] Genos's mechanical eye immediately searched for Saitama's figure below.
"There." Genos found it. Saitama was running fast. Genos immediately used several jets to fly in front of Saitama and landed on the ground.
Genos immediately clasped his hands together, his arms and shoulders instantly deforming, and dozens of device openings were aimed at Saitama in front of him.
"Burn it!"
"Bang!" Instantly, a large amount of compressed flames shot out from those devices, and a flame column over a hundred meters long surged toward Saitama.
The dazzling firelight overshadowed the sun's rays, and even Lin Qing above felt the scorching heat.
“It’s completely locked in, now the teacher will be more serious.” Suddenly, a hand wearing a red glove gently patted Genos’s shoulder.
"Behind him!" Genos's expression changed drastically as he turned around, only to be poked in the cheek by a finger.
"Okay, I won." Saitama raised his index finger and said with a grin.
"Boom!" Genos suddenly punched Saitama, who jumped high and landed some distance away.
Genos said with utmost seriousness, "Teacher?"
Saitama: "What's wrong?"
"Have you forgotten the rules of this contest? Dodge attacks that you can avoid, be serious, don't mess around, and don't disregard me. Also, continue until I can no longer fight."
“You don’t need mercy, teacher,” Genos activated the energy device on his body again.
Suddenly, in a flash, Saitama appeared in front of Genos. His pupils contracted, and he reacted by kicking Saitama.
Saitama appeared behind Genos with an extremely serious expression, slowly bending his arm backward, his right arm poised to strike.
An overwhelming aura pressed down on Genos's mind, rendering him immobile. His mechanical body made him subconsciously turn around slowly.
Saitama's fist stopped in front of Genos, "Boom!" The force of the punch sent dust flying hundreds of meters into the air.
"I'm hungry, let's go eat." Saitama's serious expression turned into a grin as he patted Genos's forehead and said.
"Oh, let's go then." Genos came back to his senses, slowly turned his head, and his expression changed drastically.
Behind them, a straight road hundreds of meters wide had been blasted out of the cliff.
What's most shocking is that in the middle of the avenue, there is still a small, intact area, about a meter in diameter, of a stone pillar.
Lin Qing stood atop the stone pillar, smiling as she looked down.
"Saitama's power is really too strong. This is just the force of a serious punch." Lin Qing teleported and appeared next to Saitama, walking forward together.
Lin Qing exclaimed, "Saitama, your strength is incredible! Your punch can blast a high cliff apart."
Saitama, bouncing around, replied, "You're pretty amazing too! You managed to withstand my Serious Punch. How about we have a fight?"
"Hiss!" Genos gasped and immediately caught up, saying, "I agree. The battle between the two of you is sure to be spectacular. I can't wait."
Upon hearing this, Lin Qing stopped in her tracks, her gentle expression vanishing, and asked, "Are you serious?"
Saitama stopped too, his blank expression instantly transforming into a handsome one as he said, "I'm serious."
"Okay!" As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qing and Genos disappeared instantly, and Saitama did turn his head and look at a high cliff behind him.
Lin Qing and Genos appeared there. "Genos, be careful." After saying that, Lin Qing teleported and appeared a hundred meters in front of Saitama.
"Lin Qing brought me here? He told me to be careful, does that mean I'm still in danger here?" Genos looked at the distance, which was probably more than ten kilometers from the battlefield.
"Come on!" Lin Qing said calmly.
Saitama appeared in front of Lin Qing in an instant and threw an ordinary punch. Lin Qing remained calm and met the punch with his own.
The two fists collided, and suddenly, the immense air pressure caused the ground within a radius of a kilometer to sink several meters.
Genos could feel the powerful pressure coming from afar, his mechanical eyes fixed on the two figures.
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!" The two began to exchange punches continuously, and because the speed was too fast, there were countless fist shadows in the sky.
Their fierce battle had ravaged the earth, leaving it riddled with holes. Suddenly, the two separated.
"Lin Qing, you are very strong. You were able to withstand so many of my punches. Now, I'm going to get serious." Saitama's expression was unusually serious.
"Then let's go!" Before Lin Qing could finish speaking, he instantly teleported to a location a thousand meters away.
However, Saitama, who had just appeared where Lin Qing was standing, also reappeared in front of Lin Qing.
Despite constantly teleporting, Saitama always managed to catch up. After teleporting again, Lin Qing decided not to hide anymore; he was going to face him head-on.
Ready to strike, Lin Qing unleashed his full power the moment Saitama appeared, and Saitama responded with his own serious punch.
"Boom!" The earth shook as if it were an earthquake, the entire land was torn apart, and the ground within a radius of tens of miles suddenly dropped tens of meters.
Those high cliffs had all collapsed. Genos had already flown hundreds of meters into the air earlier, so that he could have a wider view.
However, even when Genos was hundreds of meters in the air, he shot out like a kite with a broken string.
"Sizzle~~!" A powerful bolt of lightning shot out from the smoke and dust, accompanied by a golden flame.
Saitama immediately dodged, but the surrounding space was surrounded by lightning and flames, making it impossible for him to escape, as even the ground was covered.
"Wow, such powerful flames! What kind of flames are those?" Genos, his body tattered, barely managed to fly into the sky.
Even from that distance, he could feel the scorching heat and said, "Is Lin Qing a superhuman?"
Saitama accelerated suddenly, appearing tens of thousands of meters away in an instant; however, flames and lightning were already waiting.

"You can't hide. Wherever I sense you, you have nowhere to escape," Lin Qing's voice rang out.
Saitama stopped in his tracks, standing amidst the flames and lightning, yet he felt no discomfort whatsoever.
Saitama: "Lin Qing, your flames are much stronger than Genos's. I'm sweating. And there's lightning too. It's tingling, like a massage."
Lin Qing: ""
It's one thing that Saitama couldn't be hurt, but why were Saitama's clothes completely undamaged? Lin Qing felt this was too difficult.
Saitama took a deep breath and then exhaled, "Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" As if a category 15 typhoon had swept away the surrounding flames and lightning in an instant.
Immediately, a powerful divine sense surged into Saitama's mind. "Clang!" Saitama scratched his head and then picked at his ears. "What was that sound? It's so jarring."
Lin Qing: "He's out of options; he really can't win."
He admitted that Saitama was stronger than him, his body was stronger, and his speed was of course inferior to his teleportation.
"Forget it, I can't beat you. Let's go eat!" Saitama immediately walked towards Genos with a smile.
Genos rushed over as soon as the battle was over, excitedly asking, "So, who won? And Lin Qing, you actually have superpowers!"
Saitama said with a grin, "This battle was really great. I couldn't beat Lin Qing. Let's come again next time we have time."
Saitama is very happy now because he has finally found an opponent who can make him go all out. However, he is hungry now and will find Lin Qing to fight again next time.
Of course, if it's an enemy, Saitama doesn't care if he's hungry or not, he'll kill him without hesitation, but Lin Qing is a friend.
"Huh? Teacher isn't a match for Lin Qing?" Genos looked incredulous.
Lin Qing's face darkened. He said, "It's not that I can't beat him, it's that I can't do anything to him. Saitama's strength and physical strength far exceed mine, and I can't hurt him either."
"However, Saitama is not as fast as me. I can't hurt Saitama, and Saitama can't hit me. Neither of us can do anything to the other. It's a draw, I guess."
To be honest, Lin Qing hadn't used his full strength yet, but if Lin Qing wanted to, Saitama wouldn't even be able to touch him; he could just teleport away.
If it were a direct confrontation, Lin Qing could use the Heaven and Earth Dharma Form to perhaps fight Saitama head-on for a while.
However, Lin Qing felt that even if his strength was comparable, it was still useless if he couldn't break through the defense.
"Yeah, I can't even catch up with Lin Qing. It's a draw, a draw. Next time, let's have a proper match," Saitama said blankly.
Genos was speechless, his mouth agape in shock.
Suddenly, Lin Qing wanted to try and see if he could break through the defense, so he said, "Hey, Saitama, let me try and see if I can hurt you."
As he spoke, he opened his palm, and an incomparably domineering demonic sword appeared in Lin Qing's hand.
"This is my weapon; I don't know if it can break through your defenses."
Genos looked at the sword, and a strange power emanated from it. He said, "This sword is amazing."
"Oh, this sword even glows! It's so beautiful. Try it out, but if you really bleed, you'll have to pay my medical bills." Saitama held out his right hand.
Without saying a word, Lin Qing slashed fiercely at Saitama's arm, and the demonic sword suddenly burst forth with powerful spiritual energy.
"Clang!" The demonic sword struck firmly, but couldn't penetrate any further. Finally, a tear was cut into Saitama's clothes.
Genos opened his mouth wide in shock and looked behind Saitama at a crack hundreds of meters deep that stretched for tens of kilometers. The further away it went, the larger the crack became.
This was caused by Lin Qing's strike. In this world, the rules are different, and the power of the sword energy has been greatly reduced.
Lin Qing silently sheathed the demonic sword and said, "Let's go eat."
"Ouch, that hurts my hand so much." Saitama shook his hand, looking displeased.
Genos said, "Good, very strong, but the teacher is even stronger, he didn't suffer any injury at all."
"Alright, let's hurry up and go." With that, the three of them quickly headed towards Z City, since it was too far to walk slowly.
Half an hour later, the three people arrived here.
"A fierce battle took place here. I checked and found that the area within dozens of miles was destroyed." The speaker was none other than the sixth-ranked S-class Metal Knight.
"It was a truly brutal battle. The strength of both sides definitely exceeded the Dragon level. However, in my opinion, the ones fighting shouldn't be monsters," said a child riding a mecha.
“Child Emperor, I had a feeling they were weirdos. You two find out who they are so I can beat them to a pulp,” said Tornado, a green-haired man in a black robe.
"You? The two fighters combined could easily defeat you." Child Emperor said disdainfully.
"Hmph, you little brat, how dare you look down on me?" Tornado puffed up her cheeks, looking unusually adorable.
Lin Qing and his two companions walked through the urban area of Z City.
