425: Chapter 422: The Pinnacle Showdown【Part 1】 425: Chapter 422: The Pinnacle Showdown【Part 1】 May 30, 2009, the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, Dragon Boat Festival!
For the Huaxia Martial World, this day is destined to be recorded in the history of the worldly society.
However, it’s not because of Dragon Boat Festival, but because the Undefeated War God Li Lingtian has set a duel today at the peak of Yan Mountain with the legendary young hero, Jiangnan Immortal Master Li.
On this day, the weather is not pleasant, with drizzle floating down upon Yan Mountain.
Yet even so, at the foot of Yan Mountain, there was still a sea of people.
Before Li Chen made his debut, Grandmaster battles wouldn’t easily comnce; you might not even witness one in several years, let alone a peak duel such as the clash between the two Lis.
As the host, Li Lingtian was already standing at the peak of Yan Mountain, like a sovereign lord looking down on the world, surveying the land below.
Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu, the four grand generals of Dragon Team, all stood respectfully to the side, waiting for his commands.
“There’s nothing here for you, withdraw.
Stay vigilant at your posts to prevent any troublemakers!”
Li Lingtian waved his hand, signaling them to leave.
Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu responded respectfully and then left one after another.
“Tell , in the battle between the boss and Jiangnan Immortal Master Li, who has a greater chance of winning?”
The one who asked was White Tiger, a valiant and straightforward woman who never shied away from speaking her mind.
“Do we even need to ask?
It’s definitely the boss.
I’m not embarrassed to say, three months ago, the boss sparred with .
Do you know how many rounds I lasted?”
The speaker this ti was Azure Dragon, the earliest follower of Li Lingtian and also his most devoted admirer.
In his belief, below the Divine Realm, Li Lingtian is invincible.
Even facing a true Divine Realm opponent, his boss can confront them head-on.
Vermilion Bird eagerly asked, “How many rounds?”
Azure Dragon held out five fingers and said, “Five rounds, to be precise, actually just four and a half rounds!”
Hearing Azure Dragon’s response, both White Tiger and Vermilion Bird sucked in a breath of cold air.
Azure Dragon was a bona fide Demigod Realm expert, and even if he wasn’t going all out during their sparring, the fact that Li Lingtian managed to defeat him in just four and a half rounds was a testant to his terrifying strength.
“But Jiangnan Immortal Master Li is no ordinary figure either.
Since he dared to accept the boss’s challenge, he must have his own trump cards!” The usually silent Xuanwu finally spoke up.
Among them, he was the one who interacted with Li Chen the most.
The deeper the contact, the more he understood the other’s terror.
In the past, he revered Li Lingtian even more than Azure Dragon.
If Azure Dragon was a worshipper of Li Lingtian, then he, Xuanwu, was Li Lingtian’s diehard fan.
But now, this diehard fan began to waver.
Azure Dragon looked at Xuanwu with surprise, asking, “Hey, Xuanwu, what do you an by that?
Does Jiangnan Immortal Master Li have a chance to win against the boss?”
After thinking for a mont, Xuanwu said, “The possibility is slim, but not nonexistent.
Jiangnan Immortal Master Li is an anomaly, and can’t be judged by ordinary standards!”
Seeing that the two of them seed on the verge of argunt, Vermilion Bird quickly stepped in between and said, “Enough, arguing about this is pointless.
We just have to wait for the outco patiently.”
“Let’s go.
There’s a mixed crowd gathered at the foot of Yan Mountain.
We’re too close to the military base here, and our responsibilities are not light.
We must not let our guard down, in case soone tries to fish in troubled waters.”
Yan Mountain is a military zone, and even the usual openings for tourists were closed under the pretext of “military training.”
Only the big families and powerful factions who received an invitation could enter.
As such, the crowd wasn’t large, with only a few hundred people in attendance.
There are also so special forces soldiers who are obsessed with Martial Arts.
With no current assignnts at hand, they sneakily co over to observe.
Among them, there are two familiar faces.
One is called Duan Tong, and the other is called Zhao Yi.
No need to ntion Duan Tong, as he was originally a soldier.
And in the recent days, having successfully passed the assessnt, he beca a reserve mber of the Dragon Group Special Forces.
His sole goal now is to join the Dragon Group and beco a true elite warrior.
Then he will return to Jiangnan to seek revenge against Li Chen, take back his junior sister Lin Xuanfei, and wash away his earlier sha.
After dropping out of school, Zhao Yi transferred to a provincial key high school.
But he had already lost interest in studying, and just at that ti, there was a recruitnt drive; he decisively joined the army without informing his family.
His Taekwondo skills are quite excellent.
During the military training for new recruits, he was extrely diligent, practically risking his life.
As the saying goes, hard work pays off.
By the end of the new recruit training, he effortlessly won the fighting championship of the new soldiers’ company.
Even so of the veteran instructors couldn’t stand against him.
Moreover, he was also proficient in computer technology.
Therefore, he was also considered a key talent and was sent to Yan Mountain Military Region to take part in the assessnt for the reserve mbers of the Dragon Group Special Forces.
Like Duan Tong, he also passed the assessnt smoothly.
And due to their similar distaste, the two quickly beca good friends.
However, what they didn’t know was that the man who both made them burn with hatred by stealing the girl of their dreams was the sa person: Li Chen!
When Duan Tong saw four figures descending from the Yan Mountain Peak, he quickly tugged on Zhao Yi’s arm.
“Zhao Yi, look, that one there is Xuanwu, one of the four War Generals of the Dragon Group I’ve ntioned to you before.
He used to be the chief instructor of the Jiangnan Military District, I know him!”
Zhao Yi followed the direction of Duan Tong’s pointing finger and asked, “The other three people, are they the other three War Generals, Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger?”
Duan Tong had only seen Xuanwu and had not t the other three.
He replied with so uncertainty.
“I guess so.
To learn even a tenth of the skills from any of them would enable you to defeat that classmate of yours, and I could vanquish my enemy!”
Hearing Duan Tong say this, Zhao Yi felt his blood boiling.
Whenever this mont ca, he couldn’t help but think of Li Chen and Lin Xuanfei.
“Li Chen, just wait for it.
One day, I, Zhao Yi, will defeat you.
And let Lin Xuanfei realize who the real man is!”
Duan Tong nudged Zhao Yi’s arm and asked him, “Maybe you don’t know yet, but the person I used to admire the most was Chief Instructor Xuanwu.
But now, do you know who I admire the most?”
Seeing Duan Tong’s gaze fixed on Yan Mountain Peak, Zhao Yi tentatively replied, “Li Lingtian?”
Duan Tong shook his head and said, “No, it’s that person in the match, Jiangnan Immortal Master Li.
It is said that he is also around twenty, our age.
But now he already has the qualifications to compete on the sa stage.
If given another twenty years to grow!”
Hearing Duan Tong say this, Zhao Yi also filled with admiration for this Immortal Master Li, a figure who had created countless legends.
Sotis, he fantasizes, if only he had Immortal Master Li’s Divine Skills, squashing Li Chen like a pesky bug would be a piece of cake.
Whenever he thought of this, he would feel his blood boiling, igniting into flas.
At this mont, a crowd bustled from the foot of the mountain.
These were the people who had received invitations and were qualified to watch the battle at Yan Mountain Temple.
A familiar figure entered their field of vision, causing a sudden jolt in their spirits.
“Lin Xuanfei, why is she here too?”
