Chapter 50 (1/2)

It was proper for warriors who were engaged in battle to scheme, conspire, and utilise underhanded strategies. No one would have considered such a scheming warrior to be shamelessly despicable.

Nonetheless, it was indeed a rare sight to see one who leveraged the spectators to seize an opportunity for the advantage of the first move.

“Shameless!”

“Despicable!”

“A sinister dog!”

Mockery and jeering began to tumble like the huge wave of tsunami. Amidst their thunderous screams and pandemonium, the crowd started to throw silver coins, bottles, rice boxes, and makeup bags towards the fighting platform.

Gao Pan was indignant. He was struggling with his internal turmoil. He wanted to let out his rage through his screams. He was not upset with Xu Yi’s sneak attack. He felt it was unfair for Xu Yi to seize his pretense opportunity without allowing him a chance to play the same game.

It was obvious that Xu Yi desired to win, and he was not bothered by what others thought. He had planned for first move advantage in every execution in order to secure his victory over Gao Pan.

Gao Pan was indeed formidable as a warrior who attended eight fights to defend his title. Despite the chaotic situation, he was deft and swift. He focused on his weathertight defence and did not give Xu Yi any opportunity.

“Despicable rascal! I shall make you pay dearly with your life for your sneak attack!” Gao Pan swore nastily when he was able to catch his breath.

Xu Yi was steady and unwavering. He was unaffected by others’ criticisms. The thunderous bolts from the viewing platform only spurred him on. He focused intently on delivering his blows to Gao Pan.

Gao Pan continued to berate him. Upon realising that his enemy was unresponsive, he began to feel the pressure from Xu Yi’s attacks. He was enraged, and he roared, “Oh so we’re pitting our strengths and stamina? Bring it on!”

Gao Pan was a stoic man. His body weight was twice that of Xu Yi’s. Such assets had made him a heavyweight warrior. Gao Pan was the champion in that category.

He had been through eight battles and had used his weapons in three challenges. In the remaining five duels, he had used empty fists to take down his opponents.

The spectators were able to hear Gao Pan’s words through the amplifiers. There was an uproar within the audience. Countless people were chanting, “Hammer him, hammer him…”

The roars spread like wildfire, and Gao Pan was elated. He covered his face with one arm and the other arm was not used to block anymore. There was an opening.

Bang!

Xu Yi’s fist landed on Gao Pan’s chest. The powerful fist hit the armour and resulted in a sharp, piercing tweet. A flash of green air on Gao Pan’s face appeared. His body had not moved an inch.

Xu Yi realised in the nick of time that the armour on Gao Pan was extraordinary. He lamented his bad fortune.

“The lowly rat wants to wound me. Go to hell!”

Gao Pan shouted loudly, and his huge fist punches in the air caused air ripples. “Sundering fists!”

The fists were overpowering. Xu Yi was fearful to take them on. Instead, he deftly twisted his body to dodge them.

Bang!

The brutal fist hit the iron-steel floor and dented the floor plates.

The spectators cheered and clapped!

Gao Pan’s fist had forced Xu Yi to move away. He was proud that he did it. His feet did not stop. He continued to pursue with the silver spear.

He was halted in his pursuit by Xu Yi. The latter’s obnoxious fists were once again in his face.

The fight went on for a while. Gao Pan took a blow from Xu Yi, and he rendered another Sundering Fists in order to push Xu Yi away. Subsequently, he followed on with his silver spear.

Despite his whole-hearted efforts, he was unable to get Xu Yi off of him.
