Chapter 150
In the blink of an eye, the ring was filled with killing intent. The two of them had exchanged punches for more than ten times and their movements were just too swift, even the audience could not catch a good glimpse of their movements.
“Fascinating, this is really fascinating. Mr. Murong is undeniably the most reputable martial artist in Jiangling and he is absolutely stunning!”
“So this is the true strength of a sixth-class martial artist. It is really an eye-opener!”
“Haha, that kid has been forced into a corner. He’s not going to make it.”
All the surrounding gang leaders were cheering their hearts out and they were overwhelmed with excitement and joy.
Behind them, Murong Cang’s main disciple had a prideful look on his face as he walked to the front and bragged, “Everyone, our master has used his eighth technique. The winner of this match is quite obvious so now I would like to invite everyone to head to the dining area and prepare the dishes. We’re going to have a celebratory meal. This has been my master’s custom for the past forty years, it has always been like this.”
“Great, great!” Ma Sanyuan was extremely excited and he had now completely acknowledged Murong Cang as the reputable martial artist and the number one expert in Jiangling. Murong Cang’s confidence and demeanor were just mind-boggling; he was truly a remarkable person!
Bang! Right at this moment, the winner of the battle in the ring had been decided as one of the men had been flung out of the ring like a cannonball and had collapsed to the ground.
The main disciple roared in excitement and shouted, “Come, prepare our master’s outfit so that he can change into them after the shower and get ready for the celebratory—” Before he could finish
his sentence with the word ‘meal’, he was dumbfounded and the word he was saying became deformed. His jaw dropped so much that a coconut could fit inside his mouth!
Ma Sanyuan, Black Widow and the rest of the gang leaders started trembling in fear. All of them were in shock and they were frozen like stone statues. The silence in the arena was deafening and one could even hear the sound of a pin dropping on the ground.
It was Murong Cang who had flown out of the ring!
Murong Cang had been defeated?
Ma Sanyuan and the rest of the gang leaders, including the disciples from the Zhen Hong Martial Art Studio were in great dismay. It seemed like they had just been struck by lightning and they were in disbelief.
He was a reputable, dignified martial artist and everyone had acknowledged him as the number one expert in Jiangling. He had an undefeated record for 40 years and Murong Cang was like a God to them.
However, he could not even withstand the tenth move and had just been kicked out of the ring by a young man?
This was exactly like a scene of the arrogant and prideful Monkey King, [1] who stirred trouble in Heaven and was killed by a little demon in the end.
Everyone felt as if their outlook on life had just crumbled and they just could not believe their eyes.
Nonetheless, Chu Feng was still unfazed and he still kept a straight face, as though he had predicted such an ending.
As the saying goes, pride comes before a fall. Murong Cang had been blinded by his reputation in the martial arts and he had been acting stubborn and arrogant. He had been slacking off and he no longer had the passion of a martial artist.
It would be a miracle if he had won that match instead.
“M-Master, are you all right?” The disciples quickly helped Murong Cang up. He was lying on the ground and was vomiting blood.
Murong Cang was in a bad shape and as he gazed at Chen Song who was still in the ring with his head held up high, Murong Cang just forced out a laugh and said, “I didn’t expect a young lad like him to be qualified to be a sixth-class martial artist and his Inner Energy to be so well-developed. I’ve made a wrong judgement about him and I’ve underestimated him.”
As for Ma Sanyuan and the rest of the gang leaders, their dreams had been shattered as Murong Cang was their trump card. If even the most formidable expert was defeated, who else would have the courage to go into the ring and challenge him?
“Pesky Bear, send someone to stop the live broadcast outside and evacuate the arena,” instructed Ma Sanyuan. He asked his men to clear the arena and force away those spectators outside, as well as those who had no business being there.
One of the reasons he did so was because it was time for discussion of the matters of the underworld; he was afraid that the presence of outsiders there might cause unexpected variables to the outcome.
Another reason for that was because he wanted to save some dignity for Murong Cang who had a respectable reputation in martial arts.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
In no time, there were only around 20 people left in the Likang Sports Centre, including the gang leaders, Chu Feng and Yun Muyu.
T/N: The combat was previously mentioned to be held in Likang Sports Center, instead of Nuoda Sports Center.
Zhou Zhenghao started cackling uncontrollably as he pointed at Ma Sanyuan and the gang leaders. “‘Number one expert in Jiangling’? All of you are useless and you all are just a bunch of trash. Ma Sanyuan, Black Widow, you have lost this battle. According to our agreement, break your own legs off and get out of Jiangbei!” Zhou Zhenghao slowly made his way toward Ma Sanyuan and he had an evil and cunning look on his face. “Today, I am going to make you pay a hundredfold for the humiliation you made me go through previously.”
Ma Sanyuan and the gang leaders’ faces turned white as a sheet and their hearts were thumping violently. Nonetheless, Ma Sanyuan still clenched his jaw and pleaded, “Mr. Hao, please forgive us for the mistakes we’ve made. We are willing to contribute half of our territories to you and give you one billion each. After that, there will be no grudges between us.”
Pale-faced Scholar, Black Widow and the other gang leaders were distressed as that was half of their properties which they had sacrificed more than ten years of their efforts to build.
