Chapter 421: Chapter 387 Heavenly Punishment

Wu’s fists drilled upwards from beneath his navel, stepping forward as his chest swelled, he snorted angrily, his breath thunderous.

Uehashi Yoichi felt that Wu before him suddenly grew taller as he strode forward, feinting a step and giving Uehashi Yoichi the illusion that Wu was about to soar into the sky!

Li San in the crowd had his eyes light up, instantly recalling that day in the Martial Arts Hall when Wu practiced his punches, demonstrating for Li San the technique: Five Elements Cycle, endlessly generating.

Back then, Wu mentioned it was just a training method, there were combat techniques too, but he didn’t show those to Li San. At this moment, as Wu threw his punch, the force and position resembled that day’s, similarly harnessing his internal organs, but the Fist Intent was completely different.

That day, Wu displayed the Conception of nourishing life, but now, it was entirely for the purpose of slaughter!

His fists raised above his head, seemingly propping up the heavens and earth, his Fist Intent like clouds in the ninth heaven, incomparably vast!

Uehashi Yoichi’s complexion drastically changed, instinctively wanting to retreat and dodge. However, the next second, a thunderous bang rang beside his ear, as if there was lightning exploding by his side.

Uehashi Yoichi knew there wasn’t real lightning, but the sound of the air being burst.

Bang!

Almost instinctively, Uehashi Yoichi raised his arms to block, his senses telling him that from above the ninth heaven a lightning bolt was cleaving down straight at him!

This was the influence of Wu’s Fist Intent on Uehashi Yoichi’s mind, subconsciously generating this sensation: a vast heavenly might, irresistible!

This was the Heavenly Punishment!

Bang!

Uehashi Yoichi’s body shook, after blocking one punch his body felt electrified, every part tingling, as if he really had been struck by lightning.

"STOP!!"

The referee bellowed as he rushed forward, but Wu didn’t halt his assault; seizing the moment Uehashi Yoichi’s body stiffened, the left fist followed through, pounding straight into his abdomen.

Thump!

Uehashi Yoichi remained standing in place but spewed blood.

"No more fighting!"

Only then did the referee reach them, holding Wu firmly, separating the two combatants.

Wu stood still, indifferent to the referee embracing him, his gaze fixed on Uehashi Yoichi who now lay on the ground.

That last punch he delivered had been a piercing force; Uehashi Yoichi took it straight in the abdomen—it was likely his intestines were shattered by now.

Initially, Wu would not have dealt such severe blows if these individuals had fought fairly, a thorough beating would suffice. But they repeatedly flouted the rules; without leaving them a striking reminder, Wu feared it would give them the wrong impression that he was too lenient.

Although the referee had called a stoppage, Wu wasn’t worried about being punished, for it was Uehashi Yoichi who violated the rules first. He had deliberately allowed Uehashi Yoichi to attack numerous times just to establish this fact.

Bang!

Once again, the entire venue erupted, not expecting to see a second intervention by the referee that night.

"Fuck! These guys from the Island Country are shameless, resorting to rule-breaking when they can’t win, what the hell!"

"Another violation?"

"Man, can these guys even fight anymore, just disqualify them already!"

"The violation didn’t stop Wu from knocking him down; THAT guy is spitting blood."

"All I want to say is, well done Wu!"

"A three-peat!"

...

The Hua Country audience was ecstatic, with Cai Xiaoyan excitedly leaping up, "Haha, a three-peat! Now, let’s see those guys on the internet, how will they have the cheek to trash talk Wu now?"

"There will always be detractors, but with tonight’s performance, coupled with the Hua Country Team advancing, your Wu has solidified his status once again," her friend spoke objectively.

Cai Xiaoyan retorted, "Pffft, just wait until Wu leads us to victory. I’d like to see who’d have the face to criticize him then!"

Her friend cautioned, "Sis, don’t get your hopes up too early. Even if the Hua Country Team advances, they’ve taken several injuries, and they’re not in good shape."

As they conversed, the big screen replayed the slow-motion exchange between Wu and Uehashi Yoichi. It was undoubted that Uehashi Yoichi committed the initial foul. The referee, without much hesitation, declared Wu the victor, with Uehashi Yoichi being carried away by medics.

The screen then displayed Wu’s elapsed time: 07:21, meaning Wu had just over two minutes left to fight.

"Come, next one, I’ll continue to play with you guys!"

Wu yelled out, pointing at the Japan Team’s warm-up area.

At that moment, with blood running from his forehead to his face, splattered with blood from Uehashi Yoichi on his upper body, he stood blood-soaked, eyes wide with fury, and yelling defiantly, his presence as wild as it could be!

"This kid has gone berserk, not leaving even one head for me?"

Li San below the stage muttered in disbelief, feeling he might just be a spectator tonight.

Over on the Japan Team’s side, everyone looked grim, many young team members instinctively bowing their heads, not daring to look at Wu in the ring.

Kamino Kei took a deep breath and looked at a man, "Shuzuki-kun, you must knock him down!"

Shuzuki Toshimitsu was the last S-class expert on the Island Country Team and the last to go on stage, but as he watched Wu on the platform, he shook his head, "Sorry, I can’t go up this round."

Kamino Kei’s eyes widened, "What did you say?"

Shuzuki Toshimitsu said bitterly, "I’m not confident I can win against him..."

He had also seen Wu’s punch, which was like a Heavenly Punishment. Even as a bystander, he felt that he might not survive such a Fist Intent, let alone facing it directly.

Although Wu only had a little over two minutes left to fight, he could arguably run down the clock, but what if? Wu had won three consecutive fights, and although his physical condition wasn’t at its peak, his momentum was clearly building stronger. What if he went on stage and accidentally capsized, getting knocked down like Uehashi Yoichi? His lifelong reputation would be completely ruined.

"If you refuse to fight, your reputation will be just as finished!" Kamino Kei said through gritted teeth.

Shuzuki Toshimitsu shook his head, "No, I’m not refusing to fight, I just don’t want to take advantage of someone who’s weak. After all, Wu has already fought three matches and is injured."

"Huh?"

Kamino Kei was stunned, not expecting such a response.

"What sort of joke is this, you say you won’t go on, and you don’t?" The Island Country coach was also shocked.

Shuzuki Toshimitsu glared at him, "Shut up! Aren’t there other names submitted on the list? Let someone else go on!"

Two names were reported for the heavyweight competition by the Island Country Team.

"Shuzuki..." Kamino Kei wanted to say more.

Shuzuki Toshimitsu interrupted him, "Kamino-kun, I originally did not want to participate in this competition. I came here out of respect for you!"

Kamino Kei fell silent and closed his eyes, no longer trying to persuade him. For martial artists like them, reputation was more important than life itself. There was indeed no need for the other party to risk their reputation over an inconsequential match.

On the arena, Wu waited for a long time without seeing his next opponent. There seemed to be some dispute going on within the Island Country Team. When the referee urged repeatedly, the Island Country Team finally sent out a player.

Wu was stunned when he saw the person who came out; it wasn’t the opponent he had anticipated. The newcomer’s Overall Score was only A-(12%).

"What’s this, they’re giving up?"

On the Hua Country Team side, Li San and others were also puzzled, not understanding why the Island Country Team didn’t send Shuzuki Toshimitsu out.

"It seems that Wu has scared them off," Li Tongyun said softly with a smirk on her lips.

"Heh," Li San glanced disdainfully at the Island Country Team’s prep area.

"But that punch from the guy earlier really was somewhat terrifying."

Li San thought to himself that the speed and power of Wu’s punch were actually normal and not much stronger than when he used Tiger Hugging Head, but what was truly shocking was that Fist Intent, vast and unsurpassed!

Uehashi Yoichi also collapsed from the shock, failing to muster all his strength in defense and allowing Wu to completely penetrate his Power with a single punch.

"I’ll have to have a good exchange with him later."

An idea formed in Li San’s mind. His own realm of Fist Intent had also reached a bottleneck, but having observed Wu’s punch, he vaguely understood something new. Therefore, he was interested in seeing if the opportunity could lead to a breakthrough.

While he was lost in thought, the fight on the stage came to an abrupt end.

Wu, buoyed by his vigorous momentum, almost made his opponent collapse.

The other was from the Martial Arts Circle, just like Xu Chuan before, with little actual combat experience and insufficient training. Facing Wu’s Fist Intent, he was utterly out of his depth, making frequent mistakes, until Wu easily KO’d him by seizing an opportunity.

With that, Wu defeated four opponents in a row, completely defeating the Island Country Team.

When the referee announced Wu’s victory, it also meant that the Hua Country Team had beaten the Island Country Team, earning 7 points and a total of 15 points, ranking first in the group and successfully advancing!

"Wu!"

"Wu!"

"Wu!"

...

The entire Hua Country audience chanted this name together. Tonight, Wu had almost single-handedly crushed the Island Country Team, defeating four players on his own and setting a record at the Combat World Cup. Moreover, among the opponents he defeated, three were famous boxers from the Island Country Martial Arts World. After tonight, Wu would be stepping on the reputation of these three men, making it almost impossible for anyone from the Island Country Martial Arts World to hold their heads up in front of him.

Wu walked down from the ring step by step, and the people of the Hua Country Team all stood up to applaud him.

"Once you’ve rested, you definitely have to show me that move again."

When Wu approached, Li San whispered to him.

"No problem." Wu agreed without hesitation.

"What do you call that move?" Li San asked.

Wu thought for a moment and left behind a name.

"Heavenly Punishment."
