The Strongest Urban Son-in-law

Chapter 281: Chapter 280: American Grandmaster

”Grandmaster!” In an instant, the arena erupted into a frenzy, as the spectators began shouting excitedly, their eyes shining with madness.

They had come today with the attitude of just giving it a try, but they never expected to actually see a Grandmaster.

”People say that a Martial Arts Grandmaster possesses the immense power to defeat a hundred men alone, a force of thousands of pounds, strong enough to break steles and cut through rocks. I thought it was just bragging, but today, seeing is believing. It’s all true!” those spectators shouted excitedly.

And Han Yi, standing beside Ye Feng, was also full of surprise: ”Such a young Martial Arts Grandmaster. He looks to be under fifty. A Martial Arts Grandmaster under fifty is definitely considered a prodigy in martial arts. If it were possible to get to know him, to have him visit Longdu, and exchange experiences with the martial artists in my family, I reckon the strength of our martial artists would improve as well.”

”Oh?” Ye Feng let out a faint smile. Listening to Han Yi’s words, it seemed that her background was not simple.

Ordinary people, upon seeing a Grandmaster, would naturally be exceedingly excited, but Han Yi was remarkably calm, indicating that she had seen more than a few Grandmasters. When Han Yi mentioned Longdu, Ye Feng could basically guess her background.

There are two Han Families in Longdu. Among the five top-tier elite families is a Han Family, and there is also a Han Family among the second-tier elite families. The second-tier Han Family had long been expelled from Longdu because of offenses against Ye Feng.

This meant that Han Yi must be from the Han Family among the top five elite families in Longdu.

Ye Feng said to Han Yi, ”Zheng Yonggang is also barely considered a prodigy. If Miss Han is interested in getting to know him, I can help introduce you.”

”What bullshit are you spouting?” At that moment, Li Yang was annoyed, looking disdainfully at Ye Feng: ”Kid, don’t tell me you know Master Zheng. Do you know what a Grandmaster is? A Grandmaster is someone powerful enough to start their own sect, build a lineage. And you, helping us get to know him—do you think he would even care about you?”

Ye Feng simply shook his head and said nothing, while Han Yi did not care either. In her view, since even an ordinary pickpocket had managed to hit Ye Feng, he clearly couldn’t be that impressive. How could he possibly know a genius Martial Arts Grandmaster like Zheng Yonggang?

At that moment, atop the platform, Zheng Yonggang was brimming with confidence, sweeping his gaze around: ”Who else wishes to battle me?”

The crowd fell silent. Yuan Long, wearing a helpless expression, said, ”Only a Grandmaster can defeat a Grandmaster. Since my Azure Dragon Association cannot invite a Grandmaster, I give up. President Zhou Mei, it’s your turn to send up your fighter.”

Zhou Mei also looked helpless: ”It’s not easy to find a Grandmaster level fighter. None of my subordinates can defeat a Grandmaster.”

Zhou Mei and Yuan Long both fell into silence, then Lv Tianyi said with a smile: ”Everyone, aren’t you going to take action? If no one steps forward, then this martial arts contest will be won by Qingfeng!”

Yuan Long and Zhou Mei did not object. Although they had martial artists with Inner Strength under them, even ten martial artists at the Great Perfection level of Inner Strength might not be a match for a Grandmaster, let alone in a one-on-one fight where their chances of victory were slim to none.

Lv Tianyi laughed, ”Since none of you are stepping forward, then today’s competition is hereby concluded.”

”Wait a moment!” It was then Lei Yong shouted out, ”Mr. Lv, aren’t you too impatient? I haven’t sent my fighter yet, you haven’t won the final victory.”

”Oh?” Lv Tianyi raised his eyebrow, looking at Lei Yong and asked, ”Mr. Lei, who is your fighter?”

Lei Yong smiled slightly, in no hurry, ”Another ten minutes. Our fighter will arrive in ten minutes.”

”Fine! I’ll wait ten minutes for you. If your fighter isn’t here after ten minutes, then today’s competition is mine to win!” declared Lv Tianyi.

”No problem!” Lei Yong confidently nodded, a hint of killing intent in his eyes.

Everyone was curious. Since Lei Yong had not admitted defeat, it meant that he must have someone capable of defeating Zheng Yonggang. If true, they might witness a Grandmaster-level battle today.

Confidently, Zheng Yonggang stood in the ring with his hands behind his back, waiting for his opponent to arrive.

Time passed quickly, and soon the ten minutes were up. The sun rose higher, the temperature steadily climbed, and the crowd grew impatient. Lv Tianyi frowned and said, ”Lei Yong, has your fighter arrived? If not, today’s match is a victory for Qingfeng!”

At that moment, Lei Yong, looking toward the sea, cracked a smile: ”No need to rush. Look, isn’t that them coming now?”

A yacht was seen slowly approaching from the sea.

As the yacht neared, everyone saw a silver-haired middle-aged man in silver-white training clothes, proudly standing at the prow.

”Mr. Bruce, over here!” Lei Yong’s men shouted excitedly toward the silver-haired man.

Bruce responded loudly, ”I’m here!”

”Boom!” At that moment, True Essence surged, and powerful waves of energy erupted from Bruce’s body. With a mighty bound, Bruce leapt out a staggering ten meters or more, as if flying through the void.

Just as it seemed Bruce would plunge into the sea, a bone-chilling coldness suddenly swept over.

”Crash!” Instantaneously, a massive water spout rose from the sea surface, shot up into the sky, and quickly froze into an ice pillar.

Bruce landed on the ice pillar, and with each step, the pillar shattered beneath him. Like a cannonball, he launched forward another ten meters; however, each time Bruce was about to fall into the sea, a water spout would rise and crystallize into an ice pillar. Bruce moved swiftly across these pillars.

”Crash! Crash! Crash!” The crowd watched Bruce move rapidly across the sea’s surface, pillars after pillars of ice forming and a biting chill sweeping over the beach toward the spectators.

The audience was electrified to the core, hardly able to believe what they were witnessing.

”How is this possible!” they exclaimed in shock, their eyes wide open, unable to calm the amazement in their hearts.

”How can this man freeze seawater into ice pillars? Even if he were a Grandmaster, it shouldn’t be possible!” Li Yang couldn’t help but shout.

Even Han Yi was left puzzled.
