Chapter 422 - Theyre really alike! (2 in 1) (2/2)
As fists and kicks were exchanged, w.a.n.g Zhong slowly started to gain a the upper hand in this duel.
As the endless flurry of blows continued on the stage, the viewing gallery and Skylink chat feed had both turned quiet. Clearly, the spectacular flow of events happening on the stage had enraptured the heartstrings of everyone watching. However, what truly made everyone turn quiet was w.a.n.g Zhong’s performance.
Ever since he had used a dagger to deal with Eddie, to using a runic sword to engage in a swordfight against Adam, before actually using his fists to engage in hand to hand combat against a body morphing special ability user that possessed a unique fighting style! This, was this fellow a hundred-handed vajra? How could he be that strong in every single aspect!
The intensity of the fight had exceeded the expectations of everyone. Never in their wildest dreams did everyone expect that a swingman, proficient in both the runic sword and dagger, would have reached such a realm of proficiency in hand to hand combat.
With her fists placed before her chest, Scarlet’s eyes were fixated entirely on the figure fighting on the stage.
Half a year ago, that person was just a fellow student who had left a good impression on her. However, at this very moment, she felt that she was already unable to free herself from his grasps.
Wors.h.i.+p, admiration…never, ever did Scarlet imagine that she would actually use such words to describe a person that was of the same age as her. In fact, up till this moment, she was utterly unable to understand precisely what thoughts swam in the minds of those idol-chasing youths. However, such things were similar to love, where one would not get it until one experiences it first hand.
Everything came very naturally, just like how water conforms to the container it’s put in. However, this wasn’t due to the invincible figure from the OP, but the owner of the thick and broad back that had forcibly carried her up a 200 plus metre ice wall in the snow and ice locked plains!
She suddenly felt very fortunate to have met someone like this in her lifetime, and was also very thankful for his presence, as Tianjing would not have its moment now without him being here. Standing alongside him, watching as he brought miracle upon miracle, was the greatest joy in her life. It didn’t matter if no one in the entire world supported Tianjing and it didn’t matter if they didn’t think highly of w.a.n.g Zhong. Regardless of how fierce the opponent, Scarlet firmly believed that w.a.n.g Zhong would be the last man standing! This was no longer just having confidence in someone, this was practically a religious belief.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
5 minutes had since elapsed after the 2 had started to engage in hand to hand combat. The high frequency of the blows they unleashed at each other caused everyone watching to be unable to catch their breaths. However, anyone could clearly see that w.a.n.g Zhong had already gained complete superiority of the momentum and the duel.
Those hoodlum moves were not appealing not only due to them being hard to stomach, but also because it would also incite disgust and create trouble in one’s opponents. However, this did not mean that they were genuinely lethal moves. When such moves were unleashed, they were effective towards experts as it clouded their judgement, and also due to the mental disgust they would feel towards those moves. Naturally, in a matchup between experts, even a small lapse in judgement and a slight hesitation was sufficient to decide the victor. However, it was a pity that Galen’s opponent was w.a.n.g Zhong.
Frankly speaking, Simba could be considered as the ancestor of such hoodlum combat tactics. To him, stuff like eye gouging and low blows were just minor moves. During those years, Simba’s hidden move of “Sennen Goros.h.i.+” had already caused little w.a.n.g Zhong so much disgust that he had started to doubt his life. (Naruto’s Thousand Years of Pain :P)
Having long been adapted to such moves, ever since Simba had stopped being his practice partner, it had been a very long time since he had been on the receiving end. Therefore, he was caught by surprise at the beginning, and it all felt quite nostalgic.
A wicked backhand was knocked away, yet the actual killing move came right behind it.
Galen’s left fist pierced out, a b.l.o.o.d.y smell radiating from the bone spurs on it. Gleaming with a chilling white glint, it came hurtling over from an angle impossible to evade!
He was waiting just for w.a.n.g Zhong!
w.a.n.g Zhong, who had been being dodging all along and evading a collision with those bone spurs, took a deep breath in a flash. In the next instant, all of the strength he had acc.u.mulated in his body burst forth, packing all of it into the fist he sent piercing out!
In a flash, torrential amounts of Soul Power condensed within his fist. Just like the Soul Power halo that was continuously radiating from Adam’s sword earlier, w.a.n.g Zhong entire fist seemed to be enveloped in a layer of golden light.
Bang!
As fist collided with fist, a ma.s.sive bang rang out, while a shockwave visible to the naked eye rippled out ferociously from the point of impact, appearing just like an airwave that continued to grow larger and larger!
w.a.n.g Zhong stood at his original position, not moving a single inch. Compared to him, Galen had been sent flying by the inconceivably ma.s.sive force continued in the former’s punch!
Their fists had actually smashed head on! Wasn’t w.a.n.g Zhong afraid of those bone spurs?
Wind G.o.d’s mind had gone blank in the sight of this collision.
In the next moment, Galen made 4 to 5 successive backflips in the air, before finally regaining his footing 17 to 18 metres from the point of impact. Blood flowed uncontrollably from the corner of his mouth, while his arm slumped down powerlessly by his side.
“This is… the Mo Family’s Tyrant Fist, s.p.a.ce Fissuring Punch?!”
Upon seeing the condensation of Soul Power in w.a.n.g Zhong’s fist and the golden glow that result, the knowledgeable ones present within the audience instantly made their judgements.
After almost 10 minutes of hand-to-hand combat, this was the first time that they separated. At this moment, a whole lot of the audience found their jaws wipe agape, to the point of being unable to close them.
What kind of bare-handed combat proficiency is that? Everyone had initially a.s.sumed for the duel to go Galen’s way. Just the fame of him being a Bella Dean had made them feel that w.a.n.g Zhong had been trapped in a corner. However, not long after Galen’s appearance, the momentum of the duel had flipped once again.
“Did you see that! That’s our Tianjing’s captain! Are you guys f.u.c.king satisfied now? Is personality fragmentation that awesome? So what if he’s a Bella Dean? He’ll still be you till your mother can’t recognise you!” Ma Dong was utterly thrilled. With a somewhat c.o.c.ky expression appearing on his face, he waved his fists furiously towards the supporters of Bella Dean in the audience.
The overwhelming support for Bella Dean present in the Skylink and the compet.i.tion grounds had completely suffocated and drowned all of his voice. Regardless of how he shouted out, the voice of a single person was completely useless against them. However, with the audience having quietened down considerably, his voice could finally be heard. “I don’t care if you’re Adam or Galen, you’ll still be slaughtered!”
“Go go brother w.a.n.g Zhong! You’re invincible!” Emily shrieked out while hopping up and down.
w.a.n.g Zhong had shocked her considerably when he had used a dagger to defeat Eddie. In today’s match, she was shocked once again with his choice to use a runic sword. What’s more, the proficiency of his hand to hand combat was actually able to suppress the Bella Dean captain, despite him possessing the unique body morphing special ability. This had caused an even more significant amount of shock and astonishment to surge within her heart.
Nonetheless, what came after the shock and astonishment was a beautiful feeling that was hard for words to describe.
Ever since coming back to the squadron from her family, there was still a sliver of tightness locked up in her heart, despite having experienced the matter of w.a.n.g Zhong being lost in the icy plains. Frankly speaking, even late in the night, multiple flashbacks would still be present in Emily’s mind. Most of them were about the brainwas.h.i.+ng she had experienced durign her family’s special training.
After all, she was from the a.s.sa.s.sin family, and was even one of their successors. Although her grandfather had promised her parents to allow her to decide on which path she wanted to tread on, having grown up in an environment surrounded by everything related to a.s.sa.s.sins, specific images had long solidified in Emily’s heart.
However, at this moment, those solidified images were starting to be diluted. These images include the b.l.o.o.d.y scenes from the special training she underwent during the holidays, and those of her family that had bet their lives without the slightest doubt on matters like genetic and body manipulation, which had a less than 10% chance to succeed, all for the very sake of gaining more strength…
The creed of the a.s.sa.s.sin Family was very simple. “Strength is everything”. If one wanted to gain strength, one would need to give up everything.
However, her belief was starting to shake and sway.
Did strength really need to come from being viciousness and death?
Over the past few months, she had felt a power and belief present within w.a.n.g Zhong’s body, and these didn’t originate from darkness!
It would really be strange if Laura was still unable to spot it. With such proficiency and all-roundedness, there was only one person within the entire federation, the mysterious All Mouthy King, that could accomplish all of these feats.
Yes, that’s right! Look at the smile at the corner of w.a.n.g Zhong’s mouth!
That was the feeling that seemed to tell his opponent that he had fought pretty well and that w.a.n.g Zhong was satisfied!
All Mouthy King…has finally appeared. Laura was astonished, yet not shocked by this discovery. Ever since she had laid her eyes of w.a.n.g Zhong, she always had this feeling, as though what she said wasn’t the complete truth. However, at this very moment, all of it had finally clicked together. People like Gui Hao, Vladimir and the others were definitely very strong, powerful and frightening, and had even obtained some kind of mysterious strength from the nurturing of their respective families. However, on the aspect of style and personality, w.a.n.g Zhong was undoubtedly the one most similar to that of All Mouthy King.
w.a.n.g Zhong looked towards Galen Bella Dean. He had already fought till this stage. With his fighting spirit already being ignited, it would be too wasteful to just give up and admit defeat.
Discussions and debates sprung up in the viewing gallery, as the gazes shooting towards w.a.n.g Zhong were all filled with doubt and bewilderment. Exactly who is this person?
Within the Skylink, G.o.d knows who was the first one that uttered the words All Mouthy King, instantly causing a wave of heat to rush up the heads of everyone watching… the problem was that there were quite a bit of people who had brought up All Mouthy King’s name in the course of the compet.i.tion. This had led to a slight feeling of someone crying wolf to anything that felt similar. Such cries would quickly change as people found a target that was even more applicable than the previous. Therefore, everyone didn’t know how to reply to the current shout. However, at this very moment, all of them suddenly felt something… he really is similar!
