Chapter 67 - 67 Tiger Power
Chapter 67: Chapter 67 Tiger Power
Tonight, Dragon General Ling Yong stepped out of the tunnel with the ninety-seven-pound Black Steel Coiling Dragon Stick and entered the competition arena.
This Body Breaking Peak Martial Artist stood at 183 centimeters tall, his upper body bare, revealing muscles solid as rock.
Combatants would undergo an inspection before entering the arena, forbidden from carrying anything other than their designated weapon and wearing any protective gear.
Since tonight was a weapon fight, wearing clothes didn’t really make a difference, so Steel Bear and Black Blade, like Ling Yong, were also bare-chested.
Only Li Fei wore a mask and donned a black martial robe, wrapping himself up tightly.
But he certainly couldn’t wear the anti-stabbing clothes inside, nor did he carry the lime powder, just a single garment and a steel knife.
Ling Yong gripped the Black Steel Coiling Dragon Stick, as thick as the mouth of a bowl, with one hand and casually carried it on his shoulder, walking step by step towards the three of them with ease.
Da! Da! Da!
His footsteps sounded like drumbeats, each one imposing an additional measure of pressure on the listeners.
As the distance closed, Ling Yong’s aura grew heavier and heavier. In the eyes of the three fighters, the figure approaching was no longer a man but a ferocious tiger descending from the mountain, ready to devour its prey!
“[Tiger Power], a Fire Attribute First Grade upper-class Implant with extraordinary ability to provide immense explosive strength,”
Li Fei recalled the intelligence information related to Ling Yong.
The intelligence mentioned that [Tiger Power] possessed only one extraordinary ability, but the overwhelming presence Ling Yong displayed clearly surpassed that of an ordinary man!
“Is it because Ling Yong has already reached the peak of the Body Breaking Stage and has deeply tapped into the Implant, giving [Tiger Power] a new extraordinary ability?”
Such a guess flitted through Li Fei’s mind.
If that was the case, then tonight’s battle was going to be tough.
“Ho… ho… ho…”
Steel Bear and Black Blade watched Ling Yong approaching with grave expressions, their breathing growing heavier and beads of sweat forming on their foreheads.
Novices who had never fought in a match would expend a large amount of their physical power in just a few minutes, even without throwing a single punch, merely by passively defending, ending up more tired than their opponent.
This was a result of being too tense.
Steel Bear and Black Blade were seasoned fighters and normally wouldn’t make this mistake, but at this moment, they were affected by Ling Yong’s imposing might, their nerves tightening unknowingly.
“We can’t wait like this any longer!”
Li Fei made a decision.
Perhaps it was because he had the Steel Armor Implant, or maybe it was the Myriad Blood Pearl, but Ling Yong’s formidable presence didn’t seem to impact him.
To others, the pressure was as heavy as a mountain, but to him, it was but a breeze on his face.
He felt nothing.
Li Fei charged ahead, leaping over Steel Bear who was in front, and swung his knife towards Ling Yong!
“Haha, as expected of a rookie, eager to court death.”
In the private room, Zhou Yuan sneered at the scene, confident of his imminent victory tonight.
Throughout the history of Qingyuan Fist Village, the Dragon and Tiger Fights where ‘Tiger Swallowing Dragon’ occurred were all due to the Tiger Generals’ sincere cooperation, achieving excellent teamwork to win a tough victory.
All who, like Li Fei, rushed in to fight the Dragon General alone ended up in a miserable defeat without exception!
Ling Yong, watching Li Fei charging at him, was somewhat surprised.
Although the audience outside the ring couldn’t feel that oppressive force, he knew it all too well.
As a Loose Cultivator from the World, he came to the Qingyuan Fist Village to fight: firstly, to earn money, and secondly, to hone his Cultivation.
Having fought on the top-tier platform in the Fist Village for almost two years, he was getting closer and closer to the Qi Change Stage, and his exploitation of the [Tiger Power] within his body became deeper, finally managing to develop a second extraordinary ability—Tiger Might!
This ability was quite similar to those heart-shaking Magic, but it had a greater effect on Martial Artists compared to Magic.
“After I win this fight, the money I’ve saved up should be enough to buy the Elixirs for Breakthrough.”
Ling Yong thought to himself.
When Li Fei was only about three meters away from him, Ling Yong’s right arm visibly swelled, with veins popping up like little snakes, and patterns of orange-red and black emerged on his skin.
Whoosh!!!
The sound of the air being split erupted in the arena.
The ninety-seven-pound Black Steel Coiling Dragon Stick, in Ling Yong’s hand, seemed like a mere straw as he swung it effortlessly, leaving a blur of motion aimed at Li Fei!
Clang—
A massive metallic collision sound drowned out the blast of air; sparks flew in every direction as Li Fei swung his blade to the left.
His blade had been nicked by the impact, but contrary to everyone else’s predictions, he wasn’t sent flying by the strike. Instead, he clashed his knife against the opponent’s iron rod and then used the force to dodge to the side.
He stood his ground!
This scene took everyone present by surprise.
“He’s nothing special; what are you two panicking for?”
Li Fei’s deep voice emanated from beneath the mask, echoing throughout the venue.
Steel Bear and Black Blade, watching from behind, snapped out of their daze upon seeing this and hearing Li Fei’s voice, regaining their spirit.
Our teammate is that fierce?
There’s a chance!
“Kill—”
Steel Bear and Black Blade exchanged glances, then charged forward with a shout. @@novelbin@@
“I’m nothing special?”
A flash of anger sparkled in Ling Yong’s eyes.
His left arm swelled, tiger stripes appearing upon it, his aura intensifying further.
This reminded Li Fei of the two dual cultivation of magic and martial arts experts from the Calming Sect he had killed before.
He later found the Implants those two were using in the “Complete Guide to Implants” provided by Hao Yi. They were First Grade, high-quality Flame Patterns, similar to Ling Yong’s Tiger Power, both First Grade, high-quality and fire attribute.
The difference was that Flame Pattern’s characteristic was a relentless offensive, while Tiger Power’s was a single powerful burst.
This was the reason Li Fei was confident he could win tonight’s fight.
He had killed two dual cultivation experts on his own; facing Ling Yong now, with two helpers, there was no reason they couldn’t win, right?
Especially since he had now reached the Body Breaking Stage, with a thicker health bar and an additional Blood Soul Skill.
Finally, Ling Yong grasped the iron rod with both hands and swung it fiercely towards Li Fei from mid-air!
Li Fei immediately leaped backwards, dodging the strike.
The piercing sound of cutting through air echoed once more; the swift motion of the rod had created a white shockwave!
Bang!!!
The iron rod slammed heavily into the ground, creating a large crater and sending dirt flying.
Although Li Fei had evaded the iron rod, he couldn’t dodge the white shockwave and was hit squarely.
Rip—
The shockwave, like a sharp blade, sliced a huge tear in Li Fei’s black martial robe, leaving a mark on the Evil Ghost Mask on his face.
With the volcanic force in his arms still surging, Ling Yong didn’t pause, continuing his assault.
The dark iron rod that had hit the ground now shot upwards, like a black dragon leaping from the sea.
Then like a crazed dance, the black dragon swirled, its white shockwaves, like the giant waves it churned, completely engulfing Li Fei.
The dragon thrashed in the sea, causing waves to surge in all directions!
As Ling Yong executed this deadly move, Steel Bear and Black Blade, who were rushing towards the action, displayed expressions of despair.
Under such an onslaught, not to mention flesh and blood, even iron would be bent, broken, and shattered!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
A series of crisp sounds mingled with the harsh swishing in the air; the dark stick shadows danced in a blur, with clusters of sparks flying from their midst.
The next second, Ling Yong stopped his attack.
Li Fei was still standing right there, unscathed!
But his steel knife had broken into two pieces.
Not only that, but blue fragments had fallen.
Li Fei’s Evil Ghost Mask had also been broken by the strong stick wind.
