93: Chapter 72: Fighting Desperately in a Bloody Battle 93: Chapter 72: Fighting Desperately in a Bloody Battle The matter of combat can be approached gradually; Lian Tianji is not in a hurry.
Although Zhang Yu used his formidable techniques to make up for much of the physical strength gap between them, Lian Tianji still had enough confidence to defeat his opponent.
He was very willing to spend a bit more ti fighting his opponent, confronting and learning Zhang Yu’s powerful techniques in actual combat.
After all, Martial Arts competitions are not real battles.
Absorbing nutrients in battle and becoming stronger is equally important in Lian Tianji’s view.
But since the sponsor demanded he swiftly settle the opponent to showcase the effects of the battle potion, he could no longer delay.
Although learning through combat and earning money through advertisents…
both can make him stronger.
But after all, the power of money is more important.
“I’m sorry, Zhang Yu.”
“Even though I wanted to exchange a bit more with you, the sponsor’s demands cannot be ignored.”
So Lian Tianji imdiately activated the Combat Spirit Root he had leased, and as the spirit machine in the air stirred, it began to converge towards his hands.
Combat Spirit Root—Surge.
The spirit machine continuously infused into his body and actively participated in the operation of mana during combat to amplify the power of his martial arts.
And it works wonders when paired with his Blast Wave Fist.
At this mont, he once again launched a punch toward Zhang Yu, with surging energy rushing towards him.
This strike abruptly ignited the spirit machine surrounding his fist, causing a shock wave to smash fiercely at Zhang Yu.
This not only enhanced the power of the Blast Wave Fist but also expanded the attack range of this fist technique several tis over.
This ant that Lian Tianji’s fist didn’t have to touch Zhang Yu or the Formless Cloud Gang in his hands; the explosive shockwave could strike Zhang Yu from a distance.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Punch after punch, Lian Tianji now seed like a human cannon, continuously bombarding Zhang Yu in front of him with punch after punch.
The surging waves devoured Zhang Yu’s figure in an instant.
But just when Lian Tianji thought this series of offensives was enough to take down Zhang Yu.
In his surprised gaze, Zhang Yu, already blood-soaked from the explosions, suddenly broke through the shockwave and charged at him with both hands enveloped in layers of white mist.
“You’re so badly injured yet still want to continue fighting?”
“Aren’t you afraid of bankruptcy?”
Even though he didn’t understand Zhang Yu’s choice, Lian Tianji, with the sponsorship behind him, was filled with fighting spirit and wouldn’t hold back in front of the cara.
Thus, the two sides collided with each other without any hesitation.
Punches and palm shadows devoured each other.
In the booming explosions, Lian Tianji felt his fists bombarding Zhang Yu’s body again and again, while Zhang Yu’s hands also struck him with the Formless Cloud Gang repeatedly.
This left Lian Tianji even more puzzled.
“Have you run out of strength to maintain your techniques?”
“Choosing to brawl with in a battle of attrition?”
Slap!
Slap!
Seeing Zhang Yu under his Blast Wave Fist, his body covered in lacerations, continuous blood gushing out, Lian Tianji already foresaw his opponent wouldn’t last long.
But 10 seconds later…
the opponent was still trading blows with him.
20 seconds later…
the opponent showed no signs of stopping.
“How is this possible!”
Lian Tianji looked at Zhang Yu, clearly bloodied but still vigorous, whereas the places on his own body that had been hit increased, and the injuries were gradually causing his fist movents to deform.
At this mont, Lian Tianji found it incredible.
“What kind of potion has he taken?”
anwhile, within Zhang Yu’s body, gang qi surged and flowed throughout like the Yangtze River.
After achieving level 10 in Limitless Cloud Hand, Zhang Yu could already stimulate Formless Cloud Gang from any part of his body.
This ant he could channel Formless Cloud Gang to any position on his body without harming it at all.
So, after deciding to conceal his level 10 Limitless Cloud Hand, he devised a new strategy called—Subcutaneous Gang Qi.
He channeled Formless Gang Qi to various parts of his body, but kept it hidden under the skin, without releasing it.
At this mont, the Formless Gang Qi was like an armor worn under his skin, shielding him from the damage penetrating his skin.
This allowed Zhang Yu, though appearing bloodied all over, to only have surface injuries without any real harm to his muscles and bones.
Instead, during his exchanges with Zhang Yu, Lian Tianji was repeatedly countered by the Formless Cloud Gang, his own strength rebounding back.
Especially when he beca more impatient, exerted more strength, and was more aggressive, the force returning from Zhang Yu was even more turbulent and surging.
However, the painkillers suppressed these sensations, allowing him to continue attacking with full force.
But with the continuous accumulation of injuries…
Blegh!
Lian Tianji suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood, feeling his body trembling slightly.
“My strength, speed, and endurance are clearly superior to his.”
“In close combat, I can’t prevail against him?”
Looking at Zhang Yu, covered in blood and obviously more injured than himself, Lian Tianji couldn’t figure out why his opponent hadn’t fallen.
“What’s the point of winning like this?
Can you afford the dical bills?”
At this mont, soone from Purple Cloud High School said: “Master Lian Tianji, the sponsor is very dissatisfied.
If you can’t defeat Zhang Yu in the next 30 seconds, they will withdraw the advertisent, and cancel all future cooperation…”
Withdraw the advertisent?
Cancel cooperation?
Upon hearing this, Lian Tianji’s fighting spirit surged in an instant, like a frightened beast, and a new strength spread throughout his body.
“I must!
Imdiately!
Now!
Resolve!
Zhang Yu!”
Blast Wave Fist!
Self-destructive mode!
To push the fist technique using the explosion of spirit machine and mana.
To pursue the limits of power at the cost of severe injury to the arm.
At this mont, Lian Tianji unleashed his strongest power.
His right arm suddenly swelled as spirit machine and mana infused.
Bang!
With Lian Tianji stomping heavily, the entire arena trembled violently.
The next mont, Lian Tianji’s right arm, covered with a mist of blood, charged at Zhang Yu with power surpassing the limits!
Facing this powerful incoming punch, Zhang Yu dared not be careless, the gang qi in his body surged, and Limitless Cloud Hand and Immortal Seal operated simultaneously.
The blood-drenched crimson Formless Cloud Gang also actively clashed with Lian Tianji.
In the next instant, the fists and palms of both sides connected, a violent explosion reverberated across the platform, echoing through the entire arena like muffled thunder, attracting the attention of countless people.
Zhang Yu’s entire body was once again blasted into a bloody red hue.
The force pushed him toward the edge of the arena like a torrential wave.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
But after four consecutive steps, he still stood firm under Lian Tianji’s disappointed gaze.
“He actually neutralized my punch?
Your martial skills…”
Zhang Yu smiled slightly and said, “Thank you for the pressure you gave in this battle, allowing my Limitless Cloud Hand to finally break through the limit and reach level 4.”
Hearing Zhang Yu breakthrough in combat, Lian Tianji smiled wryly and finally sat down on the ground.
At this mont, Lian Tianji’s right arm was severely injured, and his full-body injuries exploded, leaving him completely unable to fight.
Lian Tianji said, “I’m afraid it’s not just the Limitless Cloud Hand, right?
Relying on this martial art alone couldn’t have blocked for so long.”
Zhang Yu nodded and said the pre-prepared excuse, “I also trained in the Immortal Seal to manipulate mana, and a cross-training martial art.”
Pretending to have practiced a cross-training martial art to cover up the effect of subcutaneous gang qi—this was Zhang Yu’s plan.
Lian Tianji nodded knowingly, then gazed at Zhang Yu with a complex look.
“Under the conditions of Songyang High School, you managed to master these three martial arts in just half a year of the first year of high school, even bridging the gap in physical strength between us…
Your martial arts talent makes envious.”
The ergency team quickly rushed up, putting Lian Tianji on a stretcher and taking him aside for treatnt.
Zhang Yu, also covered in blood, was similarly carried away, but as soon as he saw the ergency doctor approaching, he hurriedly raised his hand to stop him, shouting, “Wait!
Can you first tell how much it’ll cost for my injuries?
How much can insurance cover?”
Zhang Yu was genuinely afraid that he would win in the arena, but end up bankrupt and withdrawn outside it.
The ergency doctor frowned, “You’re so badly injured, yet you have the energy to worry about these things?”
At this mont, the blood-covered Zhang Yu, in the eyes of the ergency doctor, was not bleeding; he was bleeding money.
Such serious injuries?
Not treating it for a hundred or two hundred thousand worth his dical license?
While examining, the ergency doctor said, “With such severe injuries, if you don’t hurry up and treat them…”
He suddenly paused, “Huh?
There’s actually no major injury?”
With the protection of subcutaneous gang qi, and the extre operation of complete concentration, Zhang Yu continuously avoided vital spots being attacked and prevented so areas from being hit repeatedly…
This made his injuries far less severe than they appeared.
“It’s actually just minor flesh wounds?”
The ergency doctor said unexpectedly, “5,000 for examination, 15,000 for treatnt, 10,000 for dication, all routine items, insurance can cover, shall we start?”
Hearing this quotation, Zhang Yu was shocked, “So expensive?”
The ergency doctor said impatiently, “If you don’t treat it well, how will you participate in the next match?
Anyway, it’s covered by insurance, what are you afraid of?”
“Alright, alright, treat, treat it.”
Zhang Yu sighed in his heart, “Sigh, now the insurance premium will go up.”
…
White Dragon High School’s rest area.
“This Lian Tianji has so skills.”
“His exhibited physical strength should be around 2.3, right?”
“This fist technique is very powerful; combined with his Combat Spirit Root, his comprehensive combat strength in Purple Cloud High School should only be second to Le Mulan…”
“That Songyang High School student was completely suppressed, should be about to lose…”
But just a mont later, to the shock of the White Dragon High School contestants, it was Lian Tianji who lay down on the arena, while Zhang Yu stood standing, completely against their expectations.
“Lian Tianji actually lost?”
“This Zhang Yu actually used martial skills to make up for so many gaps…”
“And the dicine!
He definitely took so strong battle potions, that’s how he held out till the end.”
“In that case, it’s not surprising that Old Chu lost to this Zhang Yu.”
On the stretcher, Chu Qiuhe, who had been pretending to be unconscious, heard everyone’s exclamations, his eyelids twitched slightly, and he said to himself, “Go Zhang Yu!”
At this mont, Chu Qiuhe earnestly hoped that Zhang Yu could keep winning, although he knew it was impossible, he couldn’t help hoping Zhang Yu would damn well knock even Song Halong off the arena, and directly take the championship.
He felt he was probably the one who most hoped Zhang Yu would win, after all, it concerned his school prestige and campus status for the next two and a half years at White Dragon High School.
After all, losing to Songyang people?
That’s pure uselessness?
But losing to the champion of the Martial Arts competition?
That indeed ant the opponent was too strong, an unavoidable defeat.
