Chapter 299: Chapter 271: Detection Upgrade, God, Power, Body!

Due to the sudden turn of events, the match process was interrupted. The UFC officials, seeing the atmosphere on site, felt it wasn’t appropriate to interrupt, so they could only wait for Wu Li to come down of his own volition.

After about fifteen minutes, the singing gradually subsided. Wu Li put away the national flag and bowed to the audience in all directions once more before jumping down from the octagonal cage and stepping onto the platform.

"This is the most touching moment I’ve seen in my ten-year career as a commentator," Wang Ting said with a choked voice.

Chang Shan’s voice was also somewhat hoarse; he had been singing along just moments earlier: "As a sports commentator, whenever I see our athletes competing for our country, draped in our national flag, I always feel incredibly proud. The scene today reminded me of the night Zhang Weili won the championship. Although Wu Li’s achievements in the UFC are not yet on par with Zhang Weili’s, tonight was even more staggering."

Wang Ting, "That’s right. I think, first of all, Wu Li’s performance tonight was absolutely shocking. He completely dominated his opponent in the ring, to the point where his opponent almost had no chance to counterattack; secondly, it was Wu Li’s fighting style. He used so many techniques that we have never seen in a fighting ring before. He also showed the world for the first time just how formidable our Traditional Martial Arts can be in the ring!"

Chang Shan, "If we say that tonight was Wu Li’s debut on the world stage representing Traditional Martial Arts, then this debut was almost perfect, worthy of full marks!"

Both commentators were very excited, and the netizens watching the live broadcast felt the same way.

"Tears in my eyes! I was moved to tears!"

"Honestly, I’m not young anymore, and it’s been a long time since I’ve been touched by something. Watching this live broadcast today, my eyes teared up."

"Ever since the day Wu Li became famous, I’ve been looking forward to him using Kung Fu to fight in the UFC. I imagined he would fight beautifully, but I never expected it to be this beautiful!"

"In this life, I have no regrets being part of Huaxia!"

...

Wang Ting, "Okay, we see the host entering the stage now, and he will interview Wu Li in a moment. Let’s listen to what Wu Li has to say."

By this time, Dan Hu had received brief medical attention and regained consciousness, standing in the ring with a complex expression.

As usual, after the referee said a few words into the microphone, he raised Wu Li’s right arm and loudly announced him as the winner of the match.

The venue erupted again with cheers and applause as the host stood next to Wu Li and began the interview.

"Congratulations, Wu Li. Congratulations on your victory in this match. This is your first match in the UFC. What are your thoughts?"

Interpreter Li stood beside Wu Li, quietly translating for him.

Wu Li nodded, took the microphone and said with a smile, "Well, my thought is: UFC’s audience really sings beautifully."

Li translated this sentence through the microphone to the crowd.

"Hahaha."

Laughter resonated throughout the venue, and the host, with a smile on his face, said, "Wu Li, you were shouting something loudly earlier. Can you tell us what you were shouting?"

Wu Li, "I was shouting the names of the Kung Fu styles I was using, like Xingyi, Bagua, Tai Chi."

Host, "Hua Country’s Kung Fu?"

Wu Li nodded, "Yes, Hua Country’s Kung Fu."

Host, "It looked really great. No Hua Country competitor or any other competitor has ever used Kung Fu in the ring before. It’s a system that’s relatively unknown to everyone. How far do you think you can go with Kung Fu?"

Wu Li, "There have been UFC fighters who used Kung Fu in the ring before, such as Legendary Spider Silva and Blood Demon Flosen who both have trained in Yong Chun Fist. This is a type of Hua Country’s Kung Fu, and they have used some Yong Chun Fist techniques in the ring, it’s just that people did not recognize it. As for how far I can go, of course, it’s to the very top."

Wu Li’s words caused another stir among the audience. Silva and Flosen were names familiar to the UFC fans, and now, hearing Wu Li say this, many people realized for the first time: Oh, these two also practiced Kung Fu; Kung Fu is so powerful, and we didn’t even know it before!

This is one of the reasons Wu Li wanted to compete in the UFC. Talking about it is not as convincing as proving it through action. If Wu Li had no record of success, even if he said that Legendary Spider and Blood Demon also practiced Kung Fu, and that Kung Fu was powerful, many people would still think: Really? Are you sure they were practicing Hua Country’s Kung Fu and not something else? It seems like you’re just trying to associate them with Kung Fu because they are formidable.

But now, when Wu Li openly mentioned that Silva and Flosen also practiced Kung Fu, the American audience could only feel that while it was unexpected, it was also reasonable: with Hua Country’s Kung Fu being so powerful, it’s no wonder they would learn it.

The American audience was focused on the two star fighters Wu Li mentioned, while the audience from Hua Country was more interested in Wu Li’s second sentence.

Wang Ting, "Wu Li said he aims for the very top, which means his goal is clear: to take the championship!"

Chang Shan, "Today, Wu Li KO’d Dan Hu, ranked sixth in the Lightweight division, in less than one round. In the next UFC rankings, Wu Li is very likely to be in the top five. This would be the highest ranking for a Hua Country male competitor in the UFC! And once Wu Li enters the top five, in theory, he would qualify to challenge for the championship."

Wang Ting, "Yes, when you think about it, if Wu Li enters the top five, his second match could possibly be arranged for him to fight against the champion."

Chang Shan, "Haha, it’s just a possibility, but we can look forward to it."

Netizens were equally excited:

"The right to challenge for the championship depends not only on strength and ranking but also on popularity. However, with Wu Li’s current popularity, he is definitely qualified to challenge the champion."
