Chapter 369: Heart feeling downtrodden, an exhaustion that comes from the soul
In a clash of fists, what did it mean for Leonis to suddenly switch hands?
With Leonis’s extremely arrogant character, it was impossible for him to shrink back or show mercy. There was only one reason why he would switch hands—he had no choice but to switch them!
What was the reason that made him have to switch?
The answer could not be any simpler.
Leonis’s right hand couldn’t withstand another impact. He had already realized that his right hand would be injured or it was already injured. He had no choice but to switch to his left hand!
Therefore, although Shi Xiaobai’s strength was greatly inferior to Leonis’s, his fist’s hardness was higher. Every time the fists struck each other, the fist that was injured was Leonis’s right fist!
This was the truth of the matter!
This was the reason why Leonis was constantly ‘honestly’ clashing with Shi Xiaobai!
It was because his dignity as a king prevented him from conceding. His confidence as a mighty figure prevented him from believing that his fist was at the disadvantage!
But up to that very moment, to the point when he could no longer pay the price of the next punch that Leonis had no choice but to switch hands!
In a comparison of fists, he had lost!
And Shi Xiaobai, who had been sent flying on the surface, had always been at the advantage in the clash of the fists. He was the eventual victor!
Miracle?
There was no need for that!
Shamelessness?
It did not even exist!
The Transcendents who realized the truth were appalled.
“This is impossible. Isn’t King Leonis’s physical hardness unassailable in his third form? I remember that in the previous tournament, King Leonis was able to let Moya beat him for ten minutes! Why isn’t he harder than a human?”
“This human is strange. Other than the Transcendents, how can there be another race with such terrifying physical hardness? I seriously suspect that he is actually a bastard child of the Transcendents that went missing!”
“King Leonis, don’t hold back anymore. Quickly use your Lion King Punch. Use your absolute strength to crush that human, if not, you might fail miserably at an easy task!”
“Begging for the Lion King Punch. Stop using such honest punches!”
“Lion King Punch! Lion King Punch! Lion King Punch!”
“Lion King Punch!”
The Transcendents did not wish for Leonis to continue in this embroilment before failing due to an accident. They needed victory, as for winning beautifully, with sufficient posturing, that was less important!
The audience’s intent was very clear. Hey, stop trying to posture if you can’t. It’s not like your house is beside a posing ring!
Leonis’s livid face turned even uglier.
He wanted to roar. What do you bunch of back-seat warriors know?
The truth was slightly different from what everyone guessed.
Leonis did not believe that the hardness of his fist was wrecked. He only felt that when he hit the human, the human’s fist was exaggeratedly hard, but it was still weaker than his.
However, as the amount of force from their clash was enormous, it resulted in his fist feeling some pain after they separated, resulting in the accumulation of injuries.
However, such an injury should have been afflicted onto the human as well!
Then, the fist that was weaker than his should reasonably not be able to last for long!
It did not make any sense. In the conflict that looked like he was competing in strength and hardness, he had actually lost at endurance!
It did not make sense!
It was impossible!
But such a thought made Leonis insist on clashing head on with Shi Xiaobai’s fist because from his point of view, Shi Xiaobai was definitely enduring the pain from his fist. It had to be the case!
But he lost control of the situation. Leonis never expected that he would be the first to falter. He realized that if he punched out again, the injuries accumulated within his right fist would very likely instantly inflict serious injuries to him. It would be an inestimable cost!
Why was that human able to endure to this point in time?
