Chapter 530 - The Battle of a Century (2/2)
The building had a plaque that read: Square Tower. The person who signed at the bottom was none other than the founding father of the Republic of China, Dr. Sun Zhongshan.
j.a.pan, the Emperor’s palace…
An old samurai walked out of the place. He wore his hair in the traditional Sawaki style and hitched his katana and wakizas.h.i.+ about his waist. He looked up toward the west, basking his scarred face under the soft moonlight. A sharp light came up in his eyes, as an icy atmosphere permeated the air around him.
Behind him stood many lords and princes of j.a.pan. They came to see him off to China, giving him the same degree of respect as they would to the greatest samurai of all j.a.pan.
The news of the duel quickly gripped the whole world. Overlords from all over East Asia flocked to Zhong Hai to witness the fight.
Many powerful nations recalibrated their satellites and focused their lenses at the sh.o.r.e of the East Sea.
They also sent many special agents into China. They were trying to tape the fight as they wanted to use the footage to better estimate the powers of Chen Beixuan and Lin Shuming.
Many youths who were interested in martial arts or super humans had spent hours on the Internet, trying to find an answer to the strange things happening under the plain sight.
“Anyone from Zhong Hai? Something big must have happened. Many overlords are heading there.”
“Indeed. My martial arts teacher mentioned something about the battle of a century. He said he couldn’t miss the fight, it’s once in a lifetime opportunity.”
“Demogorgon? Or was it a duel between the two mightiest warriors of China?”
These teenagers were not professional martial artists; therefore, they could only guess.
However, curiosity drove these amateurs to Zhong Hai, to find out what was going on.
The Chinese government had responded to the movement of people into Zhong Hai by blocking the seaport using battles.h.i.+ps. However, it was unlikely for these battles.h.i.+ps to stop the overlords since they could easily conjure a storm to force the s.h.i.+ps to hunker down in the bay.
“Teacher is back?”
The entire North Qiong Sect was caught off guard by the news. A’Xiu patted her lashes and exclaimed in disbelief.
“Yes. Immortal Master Chen had killed three Immortal State Warriors in Singapore last night. He had also brought the Dragon Hall to heels. So now, we have a chapter in Singapore,” Wu Shanhe said with a broad smile.
Master Wu used to serve the Yin Ghost Sect, but now he was among the loyalists of the North Qiong Sect.
The news had lightened the mood and heightened everyone’s spirit. Hua Yunfeng heaved a long sigh of relief, knowing that their current crisis had been averted with Chen Fan’s return.
Without Chen Fan, he would have no option but to risk his life and take on Lin Shuming. Should he fail, he would send the North Qiong Sect on a very dangerous course.
Despite the good news, Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa lay in her bed with a scowl.
She had worked hard to strengthen the North Qiong Sect, hoping to earn some respect from Chen Fan. However, now, she only wished that Chen Fan wouldn’t be disappointed at her for unable to contain the situation.
“I am still worried about Xiao Fan,” w.a.n.g Xiaoyun said hesitantly.
“You have nothing to worry about. Master’s power is beyond our imagination,” Hua Yunfeng a.s.sured w.a.n.g Xiaoyun.
Although he didn’t know the exact power of Chen Fan, he could register his unimaginable and boundless power. He was convinced that Lin Shuming had picked the wrong opponent this time.
“What if Lin Shuming is now an Earth Level Deity? Could Teacher still defeat him?”
A flicker of concern flashed across Hua Yunfeng’s face.
Three days later,
The fight was finally happening.
The day was November 6, 2011, and the battleground was on the sh.o.r.eline of Zhong Hai, right beside a large rock outcrop.
This rock outcrop had stood here for eons, and carved on its surface were many praises for the incredible scene of the sea looking from its top. There and then, it had become the focus of thousands of people around it.
A scholarly looking man sat on the top of the rock, waiting.
This had always been a quiet spot along the sh.o.r.e, but today, mighty warriors from all over the world had gathered here.
“The deadliest Kendo Master Erika is here as well?”
“Oh wait, isn’t that Adam? I didn’t expect to see him here.”
“Nearly all the grandmasters on the Heaven Roll are here. It’s incredible!”
Someone exclaimed.
There were over ten grandmasters on this beach and nearly all the overlords of East Asia. Many people were on the verge of tears after seeing such an impressive a.s.sembly.
The crowd boiled over when the North Qiong Sect arrived.
“North Qiong Sect is finally here? Where is Chen Beixuan?”
Everyone looked at the newly-arrived group expectantly.
