Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Get ready…”
“Start!”
The duel officially began with a single wave of the judge’s hand. The surrounding audience cheered even louder. Though both sides aimed to defeat the enemy in one attack, the audience was surprised to find that the two of them were not in a hurry to attack. Instead, they were confronting each other on the spot.
The swirling breeze around them gradually became turbulent under the influence of the two’s vitality. Papers, leaves, and even the sand on the ground were all floating in the air.
Jia Yueping was the first to move. He adjusted his posture as his vitality rose, putting on a charging posture, similar to a football player. Some of the audience and his fans began to shout seeing this.
“Wow! Is Jia Yueping going to use his big move as soon as he starts?”
“Jia Yueping is getting serious! He’s preparing to use his signature move!”
“Yes! I like Jia Yueping’s sense of strength the most. We can feast our eyes this time!”
“Let everyone see your strength! Then, instantly smash this Li Wei into pieces!”
“…”
“Ha!”
With a roar, Jia Yueping’s body was instantly shrouded by the “vitality power” that was difficult to see with the naked eye. Even his dark skin turned red, signifying that Jia Yueping would go all out in the next attack.
On the other side, Li Wei was still as calm as ever and was not even prepared to parry. On the one hand, he felt that it was unnecessary, but on the other hand, he lacked the actual combat experience and was just trying to feel Jia Yueping’s vitality.
“5.8… 5.9… 6.0… Still upgrading.”
However, this scene made Zhang Feng, watching the battle, extremely anxious.
“Start moving, buddy! It’s no joke to get bumped on his shoulder!” If it were not for the few security guards holding him back, Zhang Feng would have jumped over the railing to stop the game.
At the same time, Han Chong and the other students laughed out loud while watching the scene.
“F*ck! Is Li Wei frightened by Jia Yueping’s vitality? He’s still standing there and not moving!”
“Hey! Get moving, Li Wei! Although I’d win some money after you lose the competition, I don’t want to see you at the funeral!”
“What a strong vitality! Has Jia Yueping broken through again?”
“Jia Yueping’s shoulders are bigger than my head and would kill anyone! So why didn’t Li Wei admit defeat?”
Just as the students were shouting in confusion, Han Chong, who was smoking, shook his head and said, “It’s useless. Don’t even mention moving. As long as Li Wei stands in this arena, he would die on the spot or be sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.”
The students all looked atHan Chong in surprise, hearing his words. No one agreed with this statement. The area of the arena was not small, at least a hundred square meters. Although Jia Yueping was strong, his weight would have limited his speed. Therefore, Li Wei still had many opportunities if he wanted to avoid this attack.
Han Chong saw through everyone’s thoughts and explained with a mocking smile, “You guys are too naive. Jia Yueping’s strength is already that of an official martial artist. However, a true martial artist’s abilities in all aspects must be developed in a balanced way at the initial stage of his cultivation.
Only in this way can they find the areas of their expertise. Although Jia Yueping looks cumbersome, in terms of speed, even two Li Weis can’t escape his pursuit.”
Having said that, Han Chong could not understand either. Even if Li Wei could not escape, he could have just run around the arena, at least increasing his chances of survival instead of standing still.
The students’ faces turned pale, looking at Han Chong’s gloating expression. Then, the VIPs watching the competition from the sidelines began discussing the scene before them.
“Amazing kid, his vitality has already increased by 6 points. Is he trying to end the match with one strike?”
“Why isn’t that Li Wei kid moving? Doesn’t he know that Jia Yueping is locked on him?”
“It should be a strategy. Li Wei should be thinking about how to delay this battle and fight a protracted battle.”
“Jia Yueping is impatient, so Li Wei probably wants to use psychological warfare. However, I still don’t understand. How is he going to dodge such a powerful attack?”
“Yeah, if he loses the first round, all the tactics he has in the future will be in vain.”
“…”
Whether it was the audience before the screen or the people at the venue, no one could understand what Li Wei was trying to do. However, they did not have much time to think about it because Jia Yueping was already prepared.
Jia Yueping felt humiliated, seeing that Li Wei had no intention of attacking or dodging, as though Li Wei was underestimating him. Then, he roared angrily, “Watch me tear your mouth apart! Go to hell!”
After speaking, he charged toward Li Wei like a football player, relying on his strong muscles. Jia Yueping’s vitality had also reached its peak during the hundred-meter charge— 6.4!
Before the competition, he had gone through hell-like training alone, facilitating him to achieve such a breakthrough. Now, it was time for him to shock the entire city again. The determination to become strong and tear Li Wei apart made him charge even faster.
As he was getting close to Li Wei, Zhang Feng, below the arena, anxiously shouted as he saw Li Wei still had no intention of moving, “Dodge quickly!”
Some students watching the live broadcast also covered their eyes and could not bear to watch the scene. Li Wei looked a little taller, but his body was much slender. If a muscular person with astonishing vitality were to bump into him, he would probably “fall to pieces” and even die on the spot.
Just as Jia Yueping was three body-length away from his target, Li Wei finally made a move. His eyes were filled with determination as he took a simple step back. Then, as he inhaled, he clenched his right fist and slightly retracted it. The beginning of the move was like a slow taichi. One could not feel any power from it.
However, in the next second, there was a sudden burst of a shocking amount of energy from Li Wei’s body. The wind that was not too strong suddenly became violent, and the papers and leaves flying in the air due to Jia Yueping’s vitality seemed to have been pulled by a powerful force, rolling around Li Wei and torn into pieces in a second.
“Phew…” Li Wei thought about the basic way of punching in free sparring and exhaled according to the rules.
Then, his clear eyes suddenly flashed with killing intent. Then, without waiting for anyone to react, not only did he not dodge, but he directly punched Jia Yueping, who was charging over. It was just a simple, ordinary punch without any fancy moves.
Bang!
The sound of flesh colliding sounded, and the surrounding smoke was directly sucked in by force, shrouding the two fighting.
The audience was certain that the two of them had already collided, but no one could see the situation in the arena. Instead, everyone could see that the judge’s table in the distance had been flipped over by force and shattered into pieces.
In the middle of the arena, a small whirlwind was gradually disappearing. Even the railings around the arena started to shake due to the vitality force, making creaking sounds.
The audience immediately stopped cheering and looked at the arena in a daze. One could even hear if a pin dropped on the ground. The audience’s eyes were fixed on the arena, wanting to know what was happening.
Just as everyone was guessing who would win, a figure slowly appeared at the edge of the dust. It was a tall and strong figure.
“It must be Jia Yueping!”
The audience’s eyes were wide open. This body size looked like Jia Yueping. Then, the shocked eyes of Jia Yueping’s fans gradually calmed down. Only one person had walked out of the smoke, and it looked like Jia Yueping had won.
However, just as they were about to cheer for their idol, they found that Jia Yueping’s walking posture was a little strange. His steps seemed to be unstable and a little shaky…
What happened next made everyone’s eyes widen, and their jaws almost hit the ground. Then, a person walked out of the smoke and directly grabbed Jia Yueping’s waist with one hand, lifting his entire body over his head. Yet, Jia Yueping did not resist throughout the entire process of being lifted.
Even the judge at the closest distance was stunned, to the extent that he forgot to announce the winner of this match, not to mention the audience. Finally, Li Wei, holding Jia Yueping, walked out of the smoke. However, just like before the match began, he still had that calm and composed look.
After sweeping his gaze across the dumbfounded and stunned people below the arena, he threw Jia Yueping heavily to the ground. Everyone was shocked and did not expect that this completely unknown Li Wei would be the one laughing till the end of the battle.
What the hell just happened?
