you are exerting 100N. Since there’s no NET force, then there must be exactly 100N pushing exactly back on your 100N to cancel it to exactly zero. Newton's first law states that whether a body is at rest or travelling in a straight line at a constant speed, it will remain at rest or continue to move in a straight line at a constant speed unless acted upon by a force.
