Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 797: Chapter 796: Another Victory

The elder’s cry resounded as he raised his hand and threw a punch, striking through the air toward Zhao Ping’an.

Zhao Ping’an didn’t even dodge; the Shadow Phantom behind him emerged once more, directly devouring the power of the punch.

This Shadow Phantom was precisely the one from Su Yang’s ”Devouring the Heavens”.

Ever since he had used the Shadow Phantom to absorb Spiritual Energy the last time, Su Yang had discovered that it could fight independently from him.

Therefore, before Zhao Ping’an stepped onto the stage, Su Yang had placed the Shadow Phantom by his side.

”Devouring the Heavens,” nothing in the world cannot be devoured!

The strength of the man before had been completely devoured by the Shadow Phantom, which was why the man had been left without the slightest ability to resist.

Half of that power was transferred by the Shadow Phantom to Zhao Ping’an’s fist, which sent the man flying. The other half was infused into Zhao Ping’an’s body by the Shadow Phantom.

Zhao Ping’an felt the surge of power within his body, which came from the force the Shadow Phantom had infused. It was this power that was relentlessly assaulting and crushing his body, impacting every meridian he had.

The elder missed with his strike and couldn’t help but be astonished. However, he was in no hurry and still launched his attacks from the air, not intending to confront Zhao Ping’an head-on.

After Zhao Ping’an devoured several of the elder’s attacks, he took the initiative and quickly charged toward him.

The elder snorted coldly, leaped into the air, and, relying on his exceptional light-body skills, dodged while counterattacking at the same time.

Zhao Ping’an seemed to be hit by several of the elder’s punches consecutively, but his movements didn’t slow in the slightest. He was relentlessly pursuing the elder, like a wrestler chasing down his opponent.

The audience on-site had already started booing incessantly, seeing Zhao Ping’an’s style of fighting as no different from that of a ruffian. To them, his fighting moves were far from impressive; taking hits all the time was simply embarrassing.

But, there were also those in the know with tense expressions.

They were well aware of the elder’s strength and the power behind his punches. The fact that Zhao Ping’an had taken so many hits and yet showed no sign of injury was truly shocking.

Down below in the stands, Li Changtian watched most intently, furrowing his brows and murmuring, ”Is... is this kid really a disciple of Fu Dewei from the Dewei Martial Arts Hall?”

Beside him, Li Liangfeng nodded vigorously, ”Yes, I’ve seen him several times.”

”How is that possible?” Li Changtian said with disbelief, ”What kind of skill does Fu Dewei have to teach such a strong disciple?”

Li Liangfeng was also completely baffled; they really couldn’t understand the situation.

The two on the stage had been chasing and fighting for a long time, and the spectators below were getting impatient; many started causing a ruckus, finding the fight uninteresting.

At that moment, Min’er suddenly shouted from the stands, ”Zhao Ping’an, will you ever stop? You’ve been hit so many times, and you still won’t admit defeat? Shamelessly continuing to fight on stage, aren’t you embarrassed?”

Her words instantly stirred up a commotion among everyone present, and many unaware of the situation joined in the clamor. At this point, they weren’t considering how long Zhao Ping’an could fight; they were all thinking about flattering the Hu Family.

Everyone in the Hu Family was frowning deeply, well aware of the elder’s strength. The fact that the elder had not been able to defeat Zhao Ping’an after such a long time was a clear testament to Zhao Ping’an’s formidable power, and it left them feeling very anxious.

Finally, the elder’s patience seemed to have run out. He suddenly charged towards Zhao Ping’an’s back, attempting to strike several deadly points with successive palms, aiming to kill Zhao Ping’an outright.

However, before his hands could touch Zhao Ping’an, he felt that something was amiss. The force in his body seemed to be sucked into a vortex, draining away. He didn’t even have time to resist before his internal strength was rapidly depleted.

At that moment, Zhao Ping’an turned around and landed a punch directly on the elder’s chest.

Like the man before him, the elder was sent flying out of the ring, falling to the ground and coughing up blood incessantly.

The scene fell into a silence as deadly as death itself. Whether it was those who had been noisy before or those who hadn’t, everyone was staring at the elder lying on the ground, unable to get up, struggling to come to terms with what had happened.

The people from Dewei Martial Arts Hall, however, were thrilled to the extreme, with several disciples jumping up in excitement.

”Master, Master, look, Ping’an has won two matches! Ping’an has won two matches!” a disciple said excitedly.

Fu Dewei was also incredibly excited, but amidst his excitement, he was also very surprised. How had Zhao Ping’an become so strong?

Although he recognized Zhao Ping’an’s exceptional talent, the path of martial arts couldn’t be mastered overnight; it required long-term accumulation.

Zhao Ping’an had only been practicing for a short while, yet he had reached such a level, something that seemed utterly impossible!

”What’s there to be excited about!” Foo Qinglan said with dissatisfaction, ”There’s still the third match. In a moment, it will be the turn of the Shadow Phantom, who maimed Myriad Enemy, to take the stage. How many pieces do you think Zhao Ping’an’s bones will be crushed into?”

Everyone’s expression changed, remembering the reticent Masked Man, and they were filled with fear. That Masked Man was terrifying indeed, having broken all the bones of a powerful fighter like Myriad Enemy. If he faced Zhao Ping’an, did Zhao Ping’an stand a chance?

If he lost, it wouldn’t just be a simple defeat; Zhao Ping’an would undoubtedly be left dead or crippled!

Up in the stands, the Hu Family’s Spoiled Brat almost lost his cool but was calmed down by a few lackeys beside him. He looked down at the Masked Man seated below and smirked coldly once again.

”If you seek death, then don’t blame us for letting you die a gruesome death!” the Hu Family’s Spoiled Brat said through clenched teeth.

Min’er sat beside him, feeling a bit panicked. The strength Zhao Ping’an had displayed was overwhelmingly strong. She couldn’t help but ponder what would happen if Zhao Ping’an won another match.

If Zhao Ping’an won another match, then he would truly become a major figure in Liuan City. He would have money and power, able to command wind and rain at his whim.

If she were still Zhao Ping’an’s girlfriend, her status would rise along with his. And indeed, such a status would be far superior to sticking with the Hu Family’s Spoiled Brat!

The Hu Family’s Spoiled Brat might have money and power, but in the Hu Family, he was just average.

But if Zhao Ping’an were to win three consecutive matches, he might be considered a peer of Patriarch Hu. Was there even need to talk about the difference in status?

Moreover, Zhao Ping’an was young and handsome, far surpassing this nearly forty-year-old Hu Family’s Spoiled Brat!

And Zhao Ping’an had treated her so well, something the Hu Family’s Spoiled Brat couldn’t compare to at all. He only saw her as a tool for venting, she had no real status to speak of!
