Chapter 357 - China Getting Excited (2/2)

Information about Takemiya Hiro unnerved Chinese martial artists. He was a Peak Transcendent State cultivator, a battle-hardened warrior. He had also proven that his power was on par with Zeus the Thunder Lord.

Chen Fan might be powerful, but he had never fought anyone who was on the top five list of the Dark Roll. CIA had ranked him the third on the list solely because of his ill.u.s.trious battle results and his ability to use the hypersonic punch.

“Don’t worry your pretty head about it. My teacher is a G.o.d. That j.a.panese dude couldn’t compare.” Someone with the username “Big Xiu-Xiu” put in.

“Your Teacher? Ha! Maybe we are sect-brothers.” Someone replied sarcastically.

“Girl, half of the users on this forum wanted to be Chen Beixuan’s disciple. You need to wait in line.” Someone else jeered at the girl.

Most Martial Artists using the forum were people in their late twenty to early thirties.

These youngster’s levity was not shared by the top dogs of the Chinese Martial arts community.

“We know exactly how powerful Takemiya Hiro is. He appeared to be living a peaceful retirement life, but in reality, underneath the facade, he challenged nearly all the top ten fighters on the Dark Roll: Zeus, Azure dragon, you name it. He seemed to have slowed down over the recent decade.”

Inside the military base hidden inside the Kunlun mountain, Lieutenant General Xiao sat at the head of a table and announced with furrowed brows.

Sitting with him were a few deputy ministers, Red Sparrow, and other powerful soldiers. Since Chen Fan’s battle with Takemiya Hiro had escalated beyond a personal matter, it had caught the attention of the Special Case Departments.

“He had a fight with Boss? How did it end?” White Tiger asked curiously.

“Azure Dragon told me that neither of them could best each other. But he said he could feel that Takemiya Hiro had held back his power a little, making Azure dragon feel like he was sparring with his teacher.” Lieutenant General Xiao said heavily.

“What? Facing his teacher? Is Takemiya Hiro already an Immortal State cultivator?” Red Sparrow said incredulously.

She knew very well how powerful and deadly Azure dragon’s Immortal State teacher was.

The difference between an Immortal State cultivator and those at Transcendent State was much greater than just one level.

Once he entered the Immortal State, he was no longer a mortal, instead, the cultivator would be considered semi-immortal. Lord Sasuno was an Immortal State Divine Soul. He was confined to his shrine, yet he was able to dominate the Kyushu Island. What if his movement was not restricted? How powerful could he get?

However strong Chen Fan was, he was no match against Immortal State warriors.

“Azure Dragon didn’t think he was of Immortal State yet, but he was very close. All he needed was a push or stimuli in order for him to enter the Immortal State and became a living legend.” Lieutenant General Xiao said heavily. “It is evident that he is going to use Chen Beixuan as the push.”

His remarks made everyone’s hearts feel heavy.

If Azure Dragon was right, then Takemiya Hiro must be the most powerful man under the Immortal State. He didn’t fight Chen Beixuan because he had to, he did it to find the final enlightenment during battle.

“What worried us the most was that Chen Beixuan still had no clue what this fight was all about. I am afraid that he is going to underestimate Takemiya Hiro. That’s a big no-no.” Lieutenant General Xiao tapped the table and said.

“Just so. Chen Beixuan doesn’t have as much intel as we do. He was working alone in j.a.pan and lacked any a.s.sistant. Worse, Takemiya Hiro had disappeared from everyone’s radar for forty years and by the, only the major intelligence inst.i.tutes have his profile in the archives. ”

White Tiger slapped his thigh and shouted: “s.h.i.+t, Chen Beixuan is walking into a trap.”

Red Sparrow’s face changed colors as she internalized all the information. After a while, she snapped into action and darted out of the room, leaving a trail of clacking footsteps.

“Mr. Xiao, Little Sparrow needed to keep her impetuosity in check. The meeting hasn’t adjourned yet, but look at her!” A deputy minister castigated with a scowl.

“Let her be. She must be rus.h.i.+ng to Chen Beixuan to warn him. This silly girl never changed.” Director Xiao shook his head and let out a faint smile.

Meanwhile, such conversation was carried out everywhere in China: Lu family, Gu family, Diamond Temple, Ba Ji Sect, Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect, and Hua Family of Zhong Hai.

This battle was going to be one of the highest-profile battles in the recent fifty years. It had caught more attention than the fight between Chen Fan and Lei Qianjue. After all, both sides drummed up the nationalism rhetoric, the fight had become heavily political.

Many martial artists and Grandmasters decided to fly to j.a.pan to cheer for Chen Fan.

Meanwhile, Chen Fan had returned to Yukis.h.i.+ro family residence. He got an invitation for him written in Chinese characters with powerful brush strokes.

“Takemiya Hiro? Who is he?”

Violet and Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa were stunned after hearing what came out of Chen Fan’s mouth.
